Big Brother-Season 11

It is high school all over again and this time it's in the Big Brother house. Athletes, brainacs, offbeat (hey let's not sugar coat it, rejects, losers, dead beats) and the popular group. Wouldn't you know, the athletes win the first HOH which brings back the biggest athlete meat head from Season 10, Jessie. I hated him back then and I hate him even more now. The hate is in direct proportion to his ever increasing growth of his muscles and lack of neck thereof. I'm sure Big Brother is planning to utilized all of the teen angst from pimple popping to prom dates. And of course what better way to start off with than a zip popping word challenge which clearly showed who could spell and who couldn't, brainacs! Of course the meat heads win this one with the word "shotgun", we clearly know where Russell's head's at. Hey, isn't his hommie gang missing him right now? Russell and Ronnie getting into it was like watching a pit bull go up against a poodle. Ronnie might be in the brainac group but he is acting like he should be in the dummy group the way he is playing the game. And what's up with him being the champion of "Persuasive Talking"? He didn't display any persuasive talking when Russell was all up in his face. He was practically wetting his pants.
And poor Laura, aren't you sick of hearing her say "because of my large boobs". Hey she's the one that got Godzilla size breast implants. If she's not saying that, she displaying them, (ok, maybe I have breast envy, since I have none! Yah, yah, I admit it!)
I keep forgetting that BB is on three nights, so I've missed some of the screaming matches. Too bad they voted off Braden even if he did just graduate from "Ridgemont High" yesterday. Well, it's back to surfing dude.
Haven't warmed up to anyone yet, I just can't get passed their looks, they look all freaky to me. Boy I must be getting old! The other Donna was liking Lydia, I couldn't get past her clown red mouth crying after she had been nominated, ya think a girl all tatted up would have a harder shell. Didn't she ever think she'd might get nominated for eviction? Oh yeah that's right, she's not in the brainac group. The house better watch out for her, the offbeat girl is not to be trusted.
All the high school antics brings back my old school days. And yes, I wasn't always in the popular crowd, what!? I must confess, I did start out in the dorky group but being a fast learner, I knew the place to be in high school, was in the popular crowd where I started out in cheer and later became Queen of the Sweetheart dance, with my date, Gordon Asaoka. Gee, I wonder where he is now, probably some famous artist (he was very talented, I just didn't care for rice). -Single D

The Bachelorette-2nd Chance Fantasy Suites in Maui

I don't know, it seems at this point Jillian is trying too hard to fall in love. What's left? Kiptyn, whose nice but non-committal attitude isn't sounding the wedding bells and Reid, whose my favorite remains elusive as well. Every time she tries to bring up the "L" word, love, Reid starts acting like he's seventeen and in high school. Her best bet, big goofy Ed. Gawd, what was he wearing on the catamaran? Did he steal Daisy Duke's swimming shorts? He's so seriously in love, that he flew his parents out to Maui to meet Jillian, this and his declaration of his undying love wins brownie points with her. However, once in the fantasy suite, he failed to perform. He was weeping in his pillow like a dejected lover. Guess he should have taken his Viagra before he went to the fantasy suite. Of course, Jillian has concerns that will this be a constant problem later on. Hey, I'd want to know if my man had performing problems, remember Kristin Davis's character in "Sex in the City"? During the rose ceremony, she had second thoughts and had to ask Ed if he was really attracted to her, because he sure didn't show it. How humiliating! Jillian decides to keep Ed over Reid (I'm assuming that Reid performed ok, no shocking scene of the bedroom lights suddenly flicking on). Looks like Ed will have to prove himself to her if he gets the chance. Maybe his shy turtle syndrome was due to the fact that his mom and dad were on the same island as them? In the limo on his way out, Reid is like maybe I should have told her that I liked her, well dud? Every girl wants to hear that you love them, why should she waste time. Looks like maybe Reid tries to make a comeback on the finale. Too late. I'm thinking she's leaning toward picking Ed because he's so smitten with her and why not take the sure thing. Looks like she might get her wish afterall and marry her best friend, because that's what he will be if he doesn't resolve the bedroom issue.
During the entire episode, all I could hear in the back ground was my daughter saying, "Is that all they do on this show is drink alcohol?" No dear, they do visit some very nices places! -Single D
