Big Brother is Watching You!

Wait, or is it the other way around? Yep, it’s one of the few things I actually enjoy about summer: Big Brother is back on CBS! This year is starting off to be pretty interesting. The “catch” this year is that three houseguests have their worst enemy (or, somebody from their past that they don’t want to see) living in the house with them. There’s the estranged father and daughter, the middle school friends who apparently had a falling out over $5.00, and the two gay boys who broke up after one blamed the other for giving him Gonorrhea. I’m not making this up!

Of course, leave it to the gays to brings STD’s onto prime time TV’s family hour.

I have only seen three episodes so far and I’m already addicted. I already determined the houseguest I hate the most: Jen. Surprisingly, she’s not blonde, but she might just be one of the dumbest people on network TV. Ever! Anna Nicole Smith is part of Mensa compared to Jen.

In the first episode all of the houseguests viewed their professionally taken photographs along the wall (when a house guest is voted out, the picture changes from color to black-and-white). She saw her photo (which actually came out well),blocked it with her hand, and starting crying. She said it was the worst photo she’d ever seen of herself and was angry at Big Brother for humiliating her in public. She just stood there drawing attention to herself crying like a 3 year old whose balloon was popped by her older brother.

She’s also fond of wearing shirts with her name on them. Not just “Jen”, but tacky phrases like “Jen-uine” or “I’m a JEN-ius”.

Um, honey? You’re not.

Then she accused one guy of kissing her…which he didn’t. She was just jealous that he was paying more attention to somebody else.

Oh yeah, this is getting good.

    The show actually sounds interesting (somewhat mindless). Thanks for the info and since their is nothing on tv during the summer I may actually give it a try.

    Im already lusting for NICK……I have read that during the after hours sessions he is playing both sides of the fences…saying that he love women but has had man crushes on guys….that his Dad thought he was gay…etc. VERY smart to string the boys along.

    I actually fancy Dustin and think his ex is lying about the Gonorrhea thing.

    I figured something was up with Nick when he hugged the other gay guy. He’d be smart to work his good looks to his benefit in the game – prevoius houseguests have done the same thing (Janelle, Doctor Will, etc…).
