We end the show with the most action Big Brother has ever seen. It all started with Britney telling Shane and J-Nooo to stay the hell away from Wienie Willie Who Went Wonkers. At the beginning of it all, I really felt as if Britney was taking it a bit too far, and J-Nooo telling Willie she couldn’t associate with him and leaving him alone in the room to roost seemed a tad overdramatic. But, then they started with the whole horror movie music and leaving Willie off camera for a second as if he was going to come back into the screen with a knife or something. It got good at that moment, I have to say. Even though some of us already knew what kinda happened, it still felt as if something big was about to go down and it was going to be a surprise to us all. Even though R.I.B. went into the HOH room and told everyone he was going to get evicted from the house before he left that door (before he got voted out), I still don’t think anyone in the house thought what happened would actually happen.
Willie just kept getting battered by his own teammates, telling him they couldn’t talk to him anymore, Britney kept bashing him as a person, and he just snapped. He did the noble thing in his mind, by trying to deflect the attention off of his teammates by being a prick, and called everyone in the house “pussies.” Joe was walking by at the time, walked halfway down the hallway and said, “You’re the only pussy I see” and R.I.B. had enough. He shot up out of his seat and got right into Joe’s face. It was at this exact moment when Ian pissed himself. And, right after showering himself, too. But, hey, that’s probably the third best time to pee yourself, after actually being in the shower, or in a pool/Jacuzzi.
They cut to commercial just as the first drops were coming down Ian’s legs, come back from said commercials, and show us Willie headbutting (more kind of headpushing) Joe in the nose. I’m just glad to see Joe didn’t go all Manu Ginobli on us and falling on the bathroom floor, pretending that he just got right-crossed by Mike Tyson. The Producers stepped in (over the loudspeaker), telling Willie to go to the back bedroom, and for Joe to not follow him. Eh, so Joe is a pussy then! Well, so is Willie, but whatever. If I were Joe, I would have hit that mother*cker right back in the face. I’d have to assume they may not throw him out of the game, since he’s retaliating, but I guess Joe did the smart thing by not risking his life in the game for the joy of punching that a-hole in the face. I think good ol’ Juggles might have swung and missed, anyway, so on second thought, he definitely did the right thing. Allison Grodner, the executive producer, ends the show by telling the houseguests that he’s been removed from the game because they do not tolerate violence. I do understand the thought behind not tolerating violence, but for me, I think the mental anguish thrown at some of these fragile houseguests is almost as bad as a headbutt, if not worse. Some of these people take verbal beatings non-stop in the house from a-hole houseguests, for nothing more than just being on a different alliance, so I kind of take offense to the fact that one act of “violence” is seen as worse than 30 or 40 days of verbal beat-downs and mental anguish handed out without consequence. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to say CBS should put a stop to people belittling each other on this show, because that is the exact premise of this show (it wouldn’t get ratings without the drama), but I kind of feel as if they’re being a little hypocritical by turning their backs to the psychological aspect of pain administered by certain houseguests. Boogie was right, earlier in the season, when he told someone they’d need therapy after this show.
Lastly, I just want to reiterate how much of an a-hole Willie is. Even after he was removed, he posted some ridiculous tweet about how he was sorry for his actions and that he acted out of line, but then said he wasn’t sorry to Joe. He called him more names and went on about how he wasn’t apologetic at all for what he did to him. Just plain stupid. Hopefully, CBS doesn’t continue to show a-holes like this that what they do, and say, is ok and will gain them celebrity and earn them future paychecks. They’re doing it with Colton from Survivor, by (reportedly) letting him back on the next All-Star season of Survivor, but I truly hope that is the last time they allow actions like that to take place on their watch without doing anything about it. Nobody should be allowed to talk to other people that way. I do understand that I write a sarcastic blog where I make fun of people and that it can make me come across as an a-hole, but I promise you this is a persona I keep for my blogs only. I do not approach people like this, in person, and make fun of them this way. This is almost like a fictional blog, in a sense. I know words sting and they can be hurtful, whether written or said, but I do my very best to not take it too far. Enough about me, though.
It will be VERY interesting to see the route this show takes from here on out. I sure hope this doesn’t mean they’re going to be letting a houseguest back in the house. I have a feeling they’re going to have to make up for that missing spot, but maybe they’ll just take out the double elimination week that comes later in the season, rather than doing the stupid thing like making a Coach a player, or bringing back Jodi/Kara. I don’t know, but all I do know is that this season got very exciting all of the sudden. I just am hoping it isn’t all downhill from here on out, seeing as how Willie did seem to be the only volatile character in the house. The rest of these people are subdued and boring, so hopefully someone takes the role of “villain.”
Until Friday, folks,

Great recap Scott – when the gals were showing us their eskimo kissing, Ians expression behind them was priceless and you nailed it for what Im sure it must have been!!
About Willie – What was really repulsive to me (before the shite hit the fan) was how Britney (does anyone else get reminded about Alicia Silverstones character in Clueless when the look at her or listen to her) and the gang (knowing this guy was an 8th grade dropout-grandpa at age 34-related to the saintly Russell) went for the juggular with the expectation that-what–he would engage them in a heartfelt, intelligent and calm discussionÉ. Cmon, him going bat-shite crazy was unacceptable , yes-but could anyone say with a straight face that they couldnt have seen it coming given that the guy quit school to early to learn good verbal communication skillsÉÉ (Sorry, my question mark key had a late nite last nite and cant be bothered to show up this morning).
I still say the spray-tanologist will make it to the final three (if the coaches get to play – if not, a contender for the prize.) No one is confusing her with Stephen Hawking (except maybe Wille), but girl has SOME game-enuff to know she wants to be the only floater anyway!
And agreed Scott-the Chilltown phonecall gag was just sad–Boogie is still hanging on to Dr Wills coattails as hard as if he were hanging onto his anti-itch cream for those damned warts.
Sorry for the long post-wont happen again–See!
As if I care about the “long” post. I write something like a 6-page recap of a 60 minute show where basically nothing happens other than people talking! I can live with a long comment. I appreciate them.
And, yes, I full-on agree the harsh treatment that Britney gave Willie, and JoJo and Shane both banishing him from contact, as well, is what drove Willie over the edge. I know he would have burst at some point, anyway, but had Britney not kept throwing fuel on the fire that was Willie, things wouldn’t have went down the way they did. I won’t say Britney is to blame, at all, for what he did, but she definitely didn’t help. Just yet another reason she and the word “coach” should NEVER go hand-in-hand ever again!
Totally agree about the “Chill Town” Diary session. Haven’t rolled my eyes so hard in a long time, and I have 5 kids…really stupid…
As for the balance bars, I don’t recall the comment, so I didn’t look, but I think that he may have been referring to Balance Bar, protein bars…I could be wrong though.
I agree with you Scott, I didn’t think Willie was all that bad until he flipped out. Seriously, was I missing something? Did he kill someone’s puppy on the live feeds? Why on earth was Britney and everyone SO mad at him at the beginning and middle of the episode? People argue all the time on this show. That’s really all he did.
I do disagree with one thing though, I absolutely think Shane and Jojo are now targets for the sole reason that they were on a team with Willie. When Willie went upstairs, one of the guys even said that because they associated with him before Thursday, they are now targets as well. Britney’s concern was legitimate in my opinion, and that was proven with Janelle making her entire team the Have-Nots. I think they’ll be on the block this week unless they can weasle into some kind of alliance.
I think Ashley may actually have a thing for nerds, although I’d be shocked if it’s anything sexual so much as a fun little crush 😛 Either way, I loved that scene…Don’t care about Danielle and Shane, they’re both incredibly dull.
It’s hard for me to get my point across in writing. I wish I could discuss this with people face-to-face more often. I don’t disagree that Shane & JoJo are going to be targets. They are going to be. But, it’s more just because of the alliance they’re NOT in, moreso than the ally they have been sidled with. They’re not in the alliance with Frank and all of Janelle’s team and whatnot. Britney sucks as a coach, thought she worked a deal with Janelle’s team, Janelle jumped ship, stuck herself onto Boogie’s train, talked with Dan, played the game, while Britney just talked about how she hated Boogie and her team. So, if anything, they’re not going to be targets because Willie blew up at the house and went bonkers. They’re just targets because they voted on that side of the house and now that Willie got booted from the house, it only makes sense to go ahead and try and vote one more of Britney’s players out, so that her and Dan are left with only one player each, and are weak in the game. Boogie & Janelle are sitting pretty now.
Does that help with the point I was trying to get across?
Mhm it does 🙂
I can totally understand why Brittany went after Willie, but only because I’ve read about the behaviour Willie displayed that was NOT shown on TV. Apparently, he kicked the doors of the Have-Not Room several times; threw a handful of pork-rinds at Janelle and called her a c*nt, and generally acted like a psycho before he even went after Joe. Brittany was trying to protect her other players and frankly I think that was admirable.
That said, Brittany isn’t in an alliance with any of the other coaches and I’m convinced that both Shane and Jo-Jo will be on the block this week.
Not sure, Scott, why you have such a hate-on for Danielle. I find her dull and vacuous, but mostly harmless. The person I really can’t stand is Jo-Jo. No game. No smarts. No personality (except as a foul-mouthed beyotch, as she’s shown herself to be on the After Dark programming).
I’m putting my money on Jo-Jo being the next one turfed. Or maybe that’s just wishful thinking on my part.
Anyway, I’ll guess we’ll see soon enough. Cheers!
I was happy to see Willie go. He came in with a sense of entitlement and his attitude and ego got in the way. He can dish it out but cant take it. He is a bully and when things do not go his way, he melts like the witch in the Wizard of Oz.
i think shane and joho became targets the minute their “team” won the first HOH…it happens every season. someone wins the HOH and it goes straight to their head with all this power and those alligned with them follow like sheep to the slaughter. they feel all immune because their side has the HOH and they get to make the first cut….however, making the first punch among a whole bunch of paranoid houseguests never goes well. because it was the first it is the most judged and the easiest to swipe back at.
bnapier – exactly right. You would have thought Willie was the HOH forever the way he acted and called meetings – geez – it was the first week!
I am very clueless as to what Willie did week 1 to make Britney hate him so much, make his whole team not talk to him, etc. Great, he called a house meeting (which I think he somehow thought was doing a good thing by telling the players “coaches may enter the game”) and yelled at Frank, but didn’t Frank lie about something Willie said? Look, I think Willie has a huge ego, is a hot head, and obviously now, is a little psycho. But, before things went down, I get his frustration. Coming from a person who would HATE it if people in this game just walked out of rooms when I went into them, told me they couldn’t associate with me, etc., I would be pissed too. But then he just went downhill and that sucks.
I am so over Britney. She has always had the “woo me attitude”, and am personally glad Janelle stopped being aligned with her. I am also over Frank. This guy hasn’t even done anything “game worthy” and he thinks he’s awesome.
At this point, I am rooting for Shane.
I agree, I’m a little over Frank, as well. I like him, but not in this game. He just has a weirdness about him that I don’t like in the Big Brother house. Although, it’s still early and they haven’t faced adversity yet within their alliance, so maybe I’ll change my mind once he becomes more vindictive towards players on his own team and not just ganging up on the people nobody likes.
As far as Willie kicking doors and all that, everything still happened AFTER Britney and the rest of his team banished him to solitude. He didn’t do anything other than yell at Frank and “act” like a bully. As if there have been no other “bullies” in the game before. These people just took more offense to it than usual, so they decided to treat him like a cancer (which he proved to be, but still). They didn’t force him to act the way he did, but they definitely caused it with their attitude towards him.
Hey guys…tell me you saw Shana after he voted to evict Danielle–as he was walking out of the DR, you could see the douche had a COMBOVER! Serious back-of-the-head-combed to the front!!! Who DOES that unless youre a 58 yr old algebra teacher trying not to look bald in the midst of his belated mid-life crisis!!!! And that pathetic attempt at flirting with Jojo in the have-not room – OMG, even Ian was grossed out! Personally, I saw more chemistry between Boogie and Ian. The only true showmancing Shana is doing is with all the mirrors in the house. The guy is begging to be backdoored….yeah, I mean both ways….
Vote to keep the coaches out of the game!! If Boogie wins again I will have to slit my wrists – he’s such a loser!! Also, why didn’t they vote Danielle out tonight and get rid of a coach since the seed has been planted that the coaches may come into the game? Seems like bad game play to me – especially since they think Dan is so dangerous. I don’t know what happened at the end of his (Dan’s) season b/c I live in Houston and Ike came through here at that time. I had no electricity for a while and when it came back on none of the shows on my DVR had survived! I remember hearing he won and I didn’t investigate further b/c I didn’t like him.
