Aftermath of Renny's EvictionKeesha was obviously the most effected by the Renny's absence. She cried in the Diary Room saying, "It's just really hard to watch her walk out the door." Later she lamented that Renny's picture turned black and white. Renny, a woman who lights up the room when she walks in, should always be in color according to Keesha.
Other reactions to Renny's departure varied. Jerry had mixed feelings. He thinks his HOH reign was a success because it kept him in the house another week, but a failure because Dan was his target. Memphis feels that this past week was extremely successful. Renny never really trusted him so he's taken out another threat. And I'd have to agree. Renny called him a snake in the past and didn't really want him in the alliance of four. Dan was also happy with Renny's eviction. If she had made it to the final two, she would have won. Hands down.

I just came to the realization that almost everything I was going to start this latest
Big Brother 10 live feeds with is a spoiler. Yikes! A lot has happened since the live show. Alas, today is a bit more as depicted in this image of Memphis. Yes, it's time for the doldrums. The luxury comp is over, nominations are over, and the Power of Veto comp is done. It's time to watch Jerry nap.
But I do have show spoilers on the other side of the jump!

It may be raining on the East Coast, but everything is always sunny and hunky-dory in the
Big Brother 10 house. They're such a kind and loving group of hamsters, right? Well, if I made the comparison with the group we endured last season during the final four, I prefer Jerry, Dan, Keesha, and Memphis. Maybe not so much Jerry. At least he doesn't cry all the time like Sheila did. He sits and stares a lot. That's just odd and a little bit sad, too.

When last night's
Big Brother 10 live episode ended, we were left with a Sumo wrestler in the living room. Now, you could wait until Sunday night to find out if he's still there. Perhaps they're having him go on a diet of BB slop to slim down. And, what about that luxury competition which could impact the game? You know, the one Julie Chen mentioned at the end of the show last night.

(S10E24) "I was running out of bodies." - JerryOh, no! Could Jerry be talking about dead bodies in the
Big Brother 10 house? He's been talking about being all alone in the house. Now, if there are bodies ... gulp. You never know with some of the houseguests they get on the show. Sure, they pass the psychological screening, but Jerry could just snap. Or maybe I just have an overactive imagination. Read on past the jump for my full review of tonight's live eviction episode.

Another hamster leaves the Habitrail, otherwise known as the
Big Brother 10 house, tonight. Then it will be down to the final four. Perhaps not the four we wanted or expected, but that's how it goes in the
Big Brother game. Tonight's Head of Household competition will reveal the first definite final three player. But the one with all the power this upcoming week will be the Power of Veto holder -- the sole vote for eviction next week.

Well, things could be worse in the
Big Brother 10 house. Instead of watching a bored Keesha, I could be watching Ollie and April have sex. No thank you to that! I had enough of that when they were in the house together. True, with fewer hamsters in the house, I have to endure Jerry's boring and odd stories. But I've learned to shut him out and turn up my music. He repeats himself so much that I'm not scared of missing anything.

(S10E23) "It would be naive of me to believe you all love me for me." - Jerry.to Dan
Time is dwindling down to the final days in the
Big Brother 10 house. The five remaining hamsters aren't the ones I would have predicted to still be in there. They're not even necessarily aligned with whom I thought they would be. Instead, we have the alliance of four -- Renny, Keesha, Dan, and Memphis -- against Jerry. But is one houseguest playing the Brian strategy? Read on past the jump for my full review of the show.

Tonight's
Big Brother 10 episode will show the Power of Veto competition and the meeting of the mindless afterwards. Of course, the Power of Veto isn't to be confused with the Power of Vito on
The Sopranos. But that could be an interesting twist on things. I can see it now ... show fans decided they hate a character and the mob shows up for a rub-out! However, with Vito being dead and all, that's just not going to work.

Labor Day began like any other day in the
Big Brother 10 house. But it might not end like any other. Today is the day that the veto will be used or not. Will Keesha and Dan remain on the block? Will there be brouhahas?
Oh, wait. If you're just watching the show, you don't even know who won the Power of Veto yet. That's old news for those who watch the live feeds. If you want the latest news from inside the house, read on past the jump. Show spoilers ahead!

(
S10E22) "We don't even get a week to campaign do we?" -- Ollie to Jerry
"Yeah well, life is short." -- Jerry to Ollie
Once again,
Big Brother began its show with an insanely long recap of the previous show. I think this one was almost fifteen minutes. We went over how Michelle was evicted, how Keesha won HOH, how she put up Ollie and Jerry, blah, blah, blah. Too long.
We did get a few nuggets of information to add to our mental portraits of this summer's houseguests. We got the exchange above which happened as Jerry and Ollie sat in the living room awaiting the results of
Big Brother 10 "Fast Forward." But all that really shows is Ollie's bitterness and Jerry's nonsensical reply.
All was not lost though, I liked seeing how the alliance of four scrambled to pick an evictee after Dan won the Veto. Dan grabbed Keesha and whispered, "Who do you want to go home?" Keesha replied Ollie and Dan made sure that Memphis and Renny knew how to vote. I guess it was an obvious choice for them though.

After a flurry of activity in the
Big Brother 10 house, we're in the doldrums right now. Another Head of Household comp, new nominations, another Power of Veto comp -- we're really talking a flurry, right? But today is Sunday and it will be a day of rest. Oh, that doesn't mean there's nothing happening in the house. There is always backstabbing, scheming, lying, and trashtalking going on!

Well, we thought that Thursday night's
Big Brother 10 episode was a whirlwind of activity. Since the live double eviction show, there has been another Head of Household competition and nominations as well as a veto comp. It's enough to make a young upstart like Dan collapse and hold his head.

I'm sure that Michelle was even more angry than usual when she saw Ollie immediately following her in last night's
Big Brother 10 double eviction show. Meanwhile, Dan the man with a plan, relaxes in the yard of the house. But is he really all that relaxed? There was an HOH competition last night after the show itself ended. Who's the new HOH and how might it affect the final four?

The action for the hamsters in the
Big Brother 10 house didn't end at the end of the live show last night. Now, this won't air until Sunday night on the show, but there is already a new Head of Household in place. They gave the houseguests enough time to catch their breath, then the show went on. Well, it went on at the house, that is.

extreme show spoilers, read past the jump. You've been warned.
