(S09E34) "I was getting drownded!" - SheilaHey, I know I know the word is "drowned." But I'm not Sheila, the single mom, and one of the final three houseguests on
Big Brother 9. I guess I made the foolish decision to work for a living and not pin all my hopes and dreams of a happy future on appearing on a reality television show. She made the decision without seeing even one season of the show in its entirety. I've seen them all. I would never be on the show, never!

(S09E33) "Personally, I want to win this veto because I want to be a power whore." - RyanYep, I wanted to get the atmosphere just right for this review of the latest

(S15E13) Well, this is it. Who's going to win it all on

As with the first season with Richard Hatch, I picked the winner from the first episode. So, I'm two for fifteen. I guess I should ask Jean-Robert how those odds do in the real world, eh?

(S04E09) We are now in super-filler territory here, folks. A 44-minute broadcast with only 15 minutes of real material (the three five minute sets from the remaining comics) dictates that we see things like: the last four comics introduced one-at-a-time... twice; longer bios of the remaining three comics; a commercial-interrupted elimination "ceremony"; a set by
LCS alum Jay London; and a really unfunny set by Caroline Rhea, a synergistic move that NBC used to promote the upcoming season of
The Biggest Loser.
