Well, let me just say one last thing about her exit interview with Julie Chen. She keeps pissing me off with her explanation of why she voted out Jeff. I can understand that you wanted to do it because you didn’t think you’d get the chance again. That is fine. But, give it up with the whole “If I was sitting there in the end with Jeff and Jordan, neither of them would choose me to go to the Final 2.” Uh, hey, I have an idea, how about you win the f*cking HOH then and then YOU get to choose who to take. I hate people with loser’s mentality. It’s as if she was playing this entire season just to come in second place! Who was to say that anybody else in the house was guaranteed to take you to the Final 2 over the other person in the Final 3?!? Your reasoning sucks and that is why your decision pissed me off. I hate the fact that someone who should have won the show got voted out because Big Brother can’t find people who understand strategy. Either find smarter people for the show or let’s just put 13 Cassi’s in the house next season and have some REAL fun!!!
Come on, Big Brother, you have 7 minutes left in the episode and you decide to have a 13 minute long HOH competition?!? Get over yourself. This season already sucks enough, don’t make people wait 3 days to find out who the HOH is. And, to those people who still do wait the 3 days to find out, God bless you. I know it’s just a stupid reality show, but I NEED to know who wins. I don’t like suspense when it lasts longer than a 90 minute movie. I want to know who killed Drew Barrymore while she just wanted to make some popcorn! I’m not waiting 3 days to find that sh*t out!
Oh, and Kalia, untuck your shirt, please, you look like Stephanie Urkel. But, in looking at the HOH competition, this was built for Rachel to win. The only reason I say that is because Adam is not a man. Any of the other men in the house (excluding Lawon) would have wiped the floor with these girls in this lame competition. Seriously, did you see how slow everyone was going? It’s 13 minutes, you can’t tell me you don’t have the stamina to at least jog a little! These people suck. So, even without seeing the results, we already knew what it was going to be. No way Kalia was winning this. That’s for sure, which is actually kind of surprising considering I’d think she might want a donut or two. Jordan is no good. She’s not winning anything unless luck is involved. Adam might as well trade spots with Screech Powers given they have about the same chance at winning anything involving athletic ability…even when up against 3 girls!
Julie comes back to tell us that Wednesday will be a special eviction night to bring us to the Final 4. We’re getting down to the nitty gritty now, so let’s hope it can at least sustain my attention. Plus, Pandora’s Box is back with a celebrity twist. I’m sure that will be tantalizing. Unless it’s another David Hasselhoff-like “celebrity.”
SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!! If you do not want to know who wins HOH, please do not read the following. I’m sure most of you have already read who won HOH, but for the short .00001% of you who don’t read blogs about this show and wait the 3 days to find out who won, I’ll be nice and preface this with a spoiler alert tagline. Anyways, like I predicted, and like everyone else should have thought, Rachel won HOH. Please, for everything that is Holy in this world Rachel, do the right thing and nominate Porsche and Kalia. Although, like I said earlier, it doesn’t matter who gets nominated, because either you’ll get out who you wanted, or it will just be tied and you can then break the tie by voting them out since only two people will vote. So, whatever you wanted to do this week, you can do, just as long as for some reason you don’t backstab Jordan and vote her out. I can see Rachel doing something like that, but she should know that Jordan is not going to win this game, so she needs to carry her along to the Final 3 and then take Adam to the Final 2. But, Kalia needs to go. Sorry, Kalia, it looks like I was wrong about you winning this game. It’s not over yet, but it should be.
Ok everyone, go follow me on Twitter now!
Scott
ok is it just me or who else is team rachel at this point??? I love J/J and even jordan more than jeff as I find him a bit arrogant; quick to get mad; and I hate how he refers to himself in 3rd person; and I thought he took it a little far when kalia put him up earlier in the game, as he acted as if he was “untouchable” when in reality its just a game and you are a player like everyone else so get over your self, so anyways I have been pulling for J/J especially jordan and I was so said when jeff got voted out, but Rachel is really growing on me as it seems as though Jordan isn’t even trying in the competitions and Rachel gives it her her all. So I think I am team Rachel now; as I think to her it’s not even about the money so much; she just is obsessed with Big Brother and wants to win.
You are freakin’ HILARIOUS! I love how you point out the OMG moments that I LMAO at(like Kalia’s Urkel pants, the bedazzled jeans, etc). Thanks for starting my Mon/Fri’s on such a great note!
I am totally team Rachel at this point too. Jordan is so sweet, but I don’t think she really did anything to win. I think Rachel can win comps (especially when she has to) and she stopped being so whiny! Although, I know how personal these idiots get when they vote for a winner (think: Russell not winning Survivor when he’s the best person to ever play the game besides Boston Rob), so if Rachel/Jordan ended up in the final 2, I could see everyone voting for Jordo because they hate Rachel.
HAHAHA, I about died laughing about the man in the pink shirt, but I am sorry to say I missed that! I wish I could have seen that, I love stupid stuff like that!!
I hope Kalia goes home this week. I also found it funny Porsche wanted to take her to the final 2, what an idiot! TAKE ADAM! EVERYONE NEEDS TO TAKE ADAM!
Scott,
I thought SO many of the same thoughts watching this show. Jeff getting screwed over by Shelly was the hardest thing for me to watch this season. Just watching her tell them over and over again she was 100% with them and would never do anything like that and to turn around and do it, just pissed me off SO much. And Dani’s gloating? It’s like Sister you got backdoored and screwed over too. You’ve got no reason to gloat.
One other thought–what drives me nuts is that I guess everyone is always thinking of that jury vote and doesn’t confront with contradictions as much as I think they should! I mean, obviously these people are IN the house, surely they must have a better memory of LIES told to their faces than I have? For example, how many times did Shelly say to Jeff Jordan and others she didn’t care about winning the money…coupled that with saying she just wanted to get Jeff/Jordan to the final two over and over. Then she turns around and explains stabbing them in the back by saying that they stood in the way of Josie and Tony –her true alliance? Well that sure sounds like you DO want to win the money right? Otherwise, what was Jeff standing in the way of? And one more mention of Josie and Tony and I think I would’ve lost it. Good Riddance Shelly!
Good news Scott, Cassi is going to appear on The Bold and The Beautiful! It should air mid October.
I loved that even Julie called Shelly out for evicting Jeff – like it was the biggest mistake ever made on BIg Brother – LOL.. On another note, I have never been a Rachel fan, but I am starting to pull for her. Not only is she the smartest “player” in the game, but she wins competitions !! Also I started watching some of Big Brother after Dark and realized that Rachel is actually sweet when not in competition mode, and she actually has good judgment. So now I am pulling for her. She is the only one remaining in this group who actually deserves to win. Go Rachel !!
Guy with the pink shirt. LOL. That is all I can muster up.
I am also Team Rachel. Because I like people who atleast give their ALL every time. I was bothered so much by the fact that the HOH competition lasted 13 minutes and they were walking slowly back and forth, like they were not trying to win 500,000. C’mon people! And although I love Jordan, she really should not win. She really does not “play” the game.
And it was so wonderful to see Jeff again. *Sigh*
This blog was HILARIOUS and I am warning those Twitter followers of yours, they are going to think you are as crazy as Rachel when they see your tweets. You are warned.
And, last thing, even thought I dislike Dani…I am sort of stealing her “Shocker” phrase. I find myself saying it too much…
Ok, let me say this…any news about Cassi trumps ANYTHING else. I don’t watch soap opera, but I might have to tape this and just leave the screen on pause when she appears.
Ok, onto Big Brother, I hate to say it but for right now I’m Team Rachel, because I have no other choice. I don’t like anybody else on this season, but I’d rather Rachel win than anyone else, because Jordan just doesn’t really play the game that well.
And, thanks to socalhh for thinking I’m hilarious! I am.
One last note, my wife said it best, I’m f*cking crazy and my tweets are something you won’t want to miss…follow me, dammit!
Wow, I could not disagree more with the majority of what you said. Shelly has not been useless this season. In fact, she has been a pretty good player (compared to some other people – Adam – this season). She manipulated both sides and was good with everyone until two weeks ago when she lost the trust of DPK. If you watch the live feeds, you would know that Shelly was instrumental in getting Kalia to nominate Lawon and getting him evicted instead of Rachel — a move so stupid for Kalia that it created a situation that eventually cost Dani her game and now probably Kalia’s. Shelly has pushed forward JJ’s game tremendously, but she has no obligation to push them toward the end. And voting out Jeff WAS a good move, despite what that annoying interview with Julie Chen implied afterwards. On live feeds, JJ were already planning on getting her out sooner than later, so Shelly would’ve had a better chance to make it to the end with DPK had Dani stayed, and KPA since Dani left. But because of producer interference to save JR via Pandora’s Box, Shelly got evicted.
And I really don’t understand your Jeff love. Just why is he most deserving to win Big Brother? He and Jordan basically hid behind BR for the first half of the game, while Dani and Rachel had to fight tooth and nail to stay in every week. And despite always talking about getting rid of floaters, the first chance he gets he gets out Dani, who was obviously the best competitor in the house. Dani, Brendon and Rachel are vets who were just as deserving to win based on game play (Jordan has basically done nothing this season and even she knows it…yet she constantly talks about “floaters” KP and how they haven’t done anything and don’t deserve the money. Umm…they’ve won and done more than you).
That said, despite hating Rachel and being on Team Dani till she got evicted, I do have to say that Rachel, compared to the HGs left, most deserves the win at this point. If she gets to F2 against Jordan, I hope people (looking at you Shelly and Adam) put aside their blind Jordan love and vote for Rachel. Rachel > Porsche > Kalia > Jordan > Adam
Hey Scott!
I think I’m your 100th follower on Twitter!! 😉
Lovin your blog! It’s freakin hilarious!
Team Rachel from the beginning!!!

Dear Scott,
You had me at “Adick”. Stay irreverent, you wear it well. I agree with your comments about pretty much everything. I’m confused at how I could start out the season being annoyed that Rachel and Brendon were back, and now I find myself actually rooting for Rachel. After Jeff got voted out, she seemed genuinely sad for Jordan, and was protective and nurturing. Then you have Shelly whose every move is intended to appear motherly, until her plastic façade slips slightly and we get a glimpse at the reptilian face underneath. She can’t hide behind the “doing it for my family” excuse any more.
It would be nice to see Jordan win it again, simply because someone who did not engage in the petty backstabbing BS, and who isn’t completely self aggrandizing, should be rewarded at the end of the day. If Jeff doesn’t BEG her to marry him, he’s the biggest idiot in the world.
One correction for you, Scott: there actually is a clock in the big brother house. It’s on the stove, and it seems to be accurate because they do refer to it now and then. I watch the Showtime After-Dark feeds.
Thank you for the entertaining recaps. I’ll look forward to the next one.

I tend to disagree Dana…
1) How is Adam any different really than Shelly? Not that I think he should win by any means, they both played “both” sides. And at least Adam has won SOMETHNG, even by default or what not. Here was my problem with Shelly: She was never going to win BB period. She’s right if she made final 3 with JJ, they would have taken each other. But no one would have voted for her regardless of if she made final 2, so she just looks like a liar and backstabber for no reason.
2) If she was behind the Lawon eviction…how was that a GOOD move?? They should gotten rid of Rachel. Lawon was useless and on their side, so getting rid of him was not in their best interest.
I may be team Jeff, but I think it’s because he actually wins things, is loyal, and I like people who actually LOVE this game. It is a great concept!
Jacklyn,
1) I agree, Adam should not win BB. But despite his POV “win,” I think he still has done less than Shelly this season. Adam has never been anything more than just a vote. Shelly has at least furthered her alliance a couple of times. She was entirely a social player and was smart about fooling most people into thinking she’s the most trustworthy person. If I remember correctly, Dom came to Shelly in confidence in Week 3 and she outed Dom’s plan to Jordan and set it up for BR to throw Dani under the bus and set JJBR firmly against Dom and Dani. Up until double eviction, Shelly was with JJ 100% and just played DKP. But the thing is, if she continued to help JJ destroy DKP, she knows she’ll likely be the next to go after DKP and there’ll be little chance to get rid of Jeff again. And since she’s terrible at competitions, even if she made it to F3 with JJ, she’ll never win HOH and JJ will never take her to F2. Whereas by turning on JJ, she had a better chance of getting to the end cuz there’s a higher possibility of someone else taking her to F2. With JJ, she had no chance at money and was at best playing for F3. With the other side, she had a better chance of getting at least $50,000. At F2, she could’ve argued that she made big moves, played everyone and had a defined strategy….and who knows, maybe she would’ve walked away with the grand prize. Now, I just want to say I’m not a fan of Shelly’s at all (her inability to own up to her lies even in the DR disgusts me), but I definitely understand why she turned when she did — and it was the perfect time too until Pandora’s Box screwed her game over.
2) Yes, getting rid of Lawon was a terrible move for Kalia and Dani. But a GOOD move for Shelly because she was actually aligned with JJ all along. Shelly screwed DK by doing that and furthered her true alliance in the game.
Good job on the blog! I recently just joined twitter so I’m figuring things out, but am following you 🙂
I never thought I would say this, but I’m hoping that Rachel pulls it out and takes this thing. I dont think that anyone else in the house wants it more than her, her and “Brennon” love this game. I think she deserves it. As soon as I found out Jeff/Jordan were playing I wanted them to win.. big Jeff fan! But now that Jeff is gone, I dont see Jordan wanting it.. I think she wants to be done with the game. I cant stand Porsche something about her just irks me, I cant put my finger on it.
Great article you got here. Thanks for sharing, keep posting! dinnerware set
