(S10E15) "Judas, blah-blah-blah, Judas in my house, blah, Judas, blah-blah-blah, Judas." - Jerry
Okay, I'll admit I paraphrased just a wee bit there. But when not giving one-finger salutes and getting bleeped for vulgar language, this is going to be Jerry's claim to fame in the
Big Brother 10 house. But ... what if ... what if Jerry wins Head of Household this week? After all, he's won veto twice. Does he have it in him?
Read on past the jump for my full review of tonight's episode.

(
S10E12) "Game on." -- Michelle
And it was game on tonight. The one thing I love about
Big Brother is that just when things are settled, they get turned upside down again. Maybe it's the hamsters backdooring someone who thought himself/herself safe. Maybe it's the underdog winning a big competition. Or maybe it's a once strong alliance getting destroyed. The game is never gradual. It's always extreme. And it's on three nights a week.
Let's get to what happened last night...

(
S09E31) Adam is safe and Natalie is on the block. She's been playing everyone against each other and now she's paying for it. Of course, in typical Natalie style, she's acting like a psycho, calling people out, and quoting Bible verse. Bottom line: This week the boys are in power. If Ryan and Adam wanted to be really devious, they should just split the vote and make Sheila decide.
Find out if Natalie is safe and what the boys decided to do after the jump.

(S09E22) Okay, the motto for
Big Brother 9 is to expect the unexpected. Tonight was a good example of why I enjoy the reality television genre. You never know what's going to be said or what will happen. Although I've groused about this season and the current houseguests, tonight's episode will go down in the classics of the
Big Brother annals. I don't necessarily agree or like everything which was said or happened. But I tell you ... tonight was legendary. Yes, really, it was.
Read on past the jump for the full skinny!

(S09E17) I have to say something before I start talking about last night. The Bible buddies segments on this show have saved the winter
Big Brother in my opinion. Okay, maybe
Big Brother 9 is still the worst season fans have ever seen, but the Bible buddies segments that feature Mattie, A-Baller, and Ryan are still pretty darn funny.
My review of
Big Brother's fifth eviction ceremony and the sixth Head of Household competition is after the jump.

Tonight's live eviction show is delayed for an hour, but do the
Big Brother 9 houseguests know this? Do they know that March Madness has knocked
Survivor into their precious Wednesday time slot?
Someone, either Matt or Ryan, will have a whole extra hour inside that house of ill repute. Lucky them, right? The more I watch the live feeds, the more I am cheering on the two guinea pigs for the big bucks at the end of the season. For the latest from inside the Big Brother house from the 24/7 live feed cameras, read on past the jump. Although the eviction is live tonight and the results aren't known now, there will be show spoilers ... beware!

(
S09E14) I just need to take a moment to say, "I called it!" I knew from the very beginning when Sheila, during the first HOH competition, sat on Adam's lap and rubbed her boobs in his face. I knew that she didn't hate him. And I knew that while he thought she was annoying, he kind of liked her too. Some of you even pointed this out in your comments. And now, my
BB friends, we have the confirmation. Adam gave Sheila $10,000 during the PoV competition on Tuesday night.
The funny thing is...well, there's two funny things. First, Adam has no job (except he doesn't know that yet). So, 10K probably would have come in handy. Second, Ryan took away Sheila's money when he won the Power of Veto. Okay, now I'm done and I can do the recap.

It's the day of the live
Big Brother 9 eviction show, so that means the day itself is sort of quiet as the hamsters clean their cage and primp. Before the jump I feel I must mention something. Now, I don't consider it a spoiler as I doubt it will be shown at all on television.
Adam mopped the kitchen floor and then proceeded to dump the dirty floor water in the kitchen sink and didn't bother to clean the sink afterwards! Ew! I'm not a huge neat freak, but I don't dump dirty floor water buckets in my kitchen sink. I kind of revere my kitchen sink and keep it clean. Maybe I'm just odd that way.

As it's been so far this season, the last couple of days since the
Big Brother 9 live eviction show have been jam-packed with action. Of course, they'll go into a lull from now until the next live show. On Sunday, the television show audience will find out who Ryan nominated for eviction and watch the food competition. On Tuesday, the TV show will air the Power of Veto comp.
But I know the results of all of those events now from the live feeds within the house. Read on past the jump for show spoilers -- keep in mind the shows spoiled will be both Sunday and Tuesday. You've been warned.

Last Wednesday the "Til Death Do You Part" disappeared from the title of the
Big Brother 9 aired show. This week, it became obvious why -- the couples were broken up and it's all a singles game (as it should be) once again. Of course, the doubting kind of person I am, I wonder how much they thought out the titling for this season. It was first touted as "My Dirty Little Secret," then "soulmates," then "Til Death Do You Part." I find it amazing that they can just outright drop the title of the season, don't you? I can't help but wonder if they're just changing things as the season goes along.
How are the hamsters doing now that they're playing for themselves? Read on past the jump for show spoilers and the latest house happenings!

(
S09E11) Expect the unexpected. Those of you who are dedicated
BB fans know this phrase all too well. It could mean that your ex-boyfriend is getting thrown in the house with you. It could mean that your estranged father is one of your fellow houseguests. It could mean that your nemesis who you campaigned against is getting another chance at the
Big Brother crown. Last night we evicted another houseguest, found out what the siren meant, and got a new HOH all in one hour. It's not going to be a really short season of
BB after all!
A review of last night's
Big Brother 9 follows after the jump...

Ah, they're promising some changes tonight on the
Big Brother 9 live eviction show. Have you seen the latest promos? It's really not a spoiler as CBS has continuously been airing the commercials since last night's show -- a couple will get evicted, but may not be allowed to leave? Well, anything which shakes up this season to turn it into a more cerebral game would be welcome to me!
We have an inking of changes to come, but what about the houseguests? They have to be doing the math and know that a couple can't get evicted each week or it will be a short season, right? For show spoilers and the latest from inside the house, read on past the jump.

They enjoy primping in the
Big Brother 9 house, don't they? Alas, they can only primp their exteriors. If this group of hamsters could primp their language (so the aired shows wouldn't have so many bleeped out bits), their behaviors (so they're not ranting at each other for hours on end), their sexual activities (so I don't think I'm watching bad amateur porn and feel all creepy about it) ... could it still be good TV?
I think so. Language will always be an issue. But I think back to one of my favorite seasons, the second season. There was some cuddling, but not like outright porn. Ah, but this year they gave 'em a bowl of condoms. Now that I've had no spoiler information on the main page (yes, there is a method to my madness), read past the jump for show spoilers and the latest news from inside the house!
