Dan Wins Big Brother 10 USA!

On Tuesday, September 16, 2008, Dan Gheesling won the season 10 edition of Big Brother! I am really happy for him. Dan’s been my favorite since about the middle of week two.  At first I wanted him to win it all no matter what. Then after the silly Replacement Roulette I lost some love for Dan and just wanted him to make it to the final two with either Keesha, Renny or Michelle. And I would have been OK with him winning or OK with him coming in second to either one of them. Either way would have been fine with me.

But after I got over my annoyance with Replacement Roulette, I started rooting for him to win the grand prize again, especially against Memphis. I was/am neutral toward Memphis for the most part. So I definitely wanted Dan to beat him in the final two. And he did; 7 votes for Dan to win, and 0 votes for Memphis. I must say that I feel a little bad for Memphis, I would feel better for him if he would have gotten at least a vote or two. But I’m sure he’ll be fine. He got $50,000 (before tax), a car (well actually he opted for more cash instead of the car), had a great experience on BB and got to be on TV! So he’ll be fine. I hope he and Keesha can be friends outside of the house. I tend to believe Memphis when he said BB wouldn’t let him talk to Keesha, before she left the house, about why he was evicting her.

Oh and speaking of Keesha, she won the $25,000 America’s Choice prize! Yay, good for her. I voted for her twice and wanted her to win it. So, I was really happy Tuesday night with the Dan and Keesha wins!

What I would have loved would have been Dan and Keesha in the final 2, with Dan winning the game with a 5/2 or 4/3 vote. And Michelle or Renny winning the $25,000 America’s Choice prize.

But it still turned out well. I’m happy for Dan & Memphis (The Renegades!) and Keesha. Congratulations to the three of them! It was a really good season and this was the first time someone I like from early in the game won the grand prize. So it was pretty cool!

Now…. Bring on Big Brother 11! LOL!

Big Brother Season 10 Finale Will Be on Sept 16, 2008

Well, season 10 of Big Brother is almost over and I’m happy to say that Dan made it to the final 2! I’m glad about that as he’s been my favorite since week 2. I would have preferred Michelle, Keesha or Renny in the final two with him, but I guess I don’t mind Memphis too much. I do like the Renegades thing that they do. I’m just glad Jerry didn’t make it to the final 2!

In a way I hope Memphis wins, because I felt Dan being able to charm a jury member and being able to talk to Keesha all that time just before she was evicted, might help in him winning. I think it’s unfair to Memphis. Memphis said the BB wouldn’t let him talk to Keesha and tell her why he was evicting her and I think that’s wrong. However, anyone could have won the luxury competitions and I don’t know if it was in favor of Dan or not. And I don’t know if someone else had won, would they have been able to take a jury member as well.  And as for not being able to talk to Keesha, I also don’t know if Memphis is telling the truth or not about the DR telling him he couldn’t talk to Keesha about evicting her , but I tend to believe him. But who knows for sure.

So in a way I hope Memphis wins because I tend to believe that BB gave Dan an unfair advantage. But on the other hand I don’t know that for sure, and I have liked Dan the best out of all the BB10 houseguests since week 2. So I think ultimately I’ll be glad if Dan wins grand prize (which means he’ll probably end up getting second place! LOL)

I Liked the Season 2 Premier of Sarah Connor Chronicles

The season two premier of The Sarah Connor Chronicles on September 8 was pretty good. It was good to see everyone back. I thought Cameron’s chip messing up to where she wanted to assassinate John was a good plot, but I thought the ending was kind of corny and could have been better.
I like terminator liquid lady (although I’m not rooting for her of course!). LOL! I hope she’s on the show for a while.

Big Brother Season 10 Episode 20

Dan! Dan! Dan! Yeah that’s right! Crazy Dan! On the Tuesday night (July 26th) episode of Big Brother, Dan was being a major tool! So much so that I lost some “love” for him.

If the deal he made was Ollie wasn’t bad enough, Dan then tries to be Mr. Puppet Master or something by getting the houseguest to play some silly Roulette game called Replacement Nominee Roulette, during the Power of Veto (POV) ceremony.

I was so annoyed with Dan for the rest of the night and most of yesterday. But I did find out that he gave Keesha and Renny the option of not playing the POV Russian Roulette game, but I think by then they were already to intimidated not to go along with it. And at the POV ceremony he said that whoever didn’t go along with it would be put up on the block. That is was got me so annoyed with him. What a toolish thing to do!  On his HOH blog, Dan writes that the POV ceremony didn’t go over so well. So at least he knows it was a dumb thing to do!

So anyway, Michelle and Jerry are on the block and one of them is set to go home tonight. I like Michelle and want her to stay over Jerry. She’s supposedly been doing a lot of trash talking (on the Live Feeds) and supposedly called Dan a child molester. I didn’t hear her say it, but if she did, that’s awful, and I’d probably rather she be evicted and Jerry stay. But Jerry says awful things about houseguests as well. Anyway, Dan says he doesn’t take what people say about him in the game seriously because it’s in the heat of the moment, etc. So maybe he’ll not be bothered by what Michelle said. I think that ultimately I would rather Michelle stay over Jerry (I am not fond of Jerry).

And tonight is the fast forward - Which is Eviction, HOH, Veto, Eviction - all in one episode. I hope Dan can servive it. I’d like Dan, Renny, Keesha and Michelle (if Michelle can stop that awful trash talking) for final 4!

I Can’t with “The Hills”, I Just Can’t!

I really used to like The Hills because it was a fun and interesting show, and I really liked Lauren Conrad (I still like Lauren). But I just can’t bring myself to watch it anymore. I think it’s mostly because of Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, and to a lesser extent, Audrina Patridge. They just really get on my nerves! I was cool with Heidi being on The Hills, but after she got with Spencer, it just went downhill from there. Their story lines seem too fake and made up; even more than everything else on the show. Which is another thing I have a problem with. 90% of the show seems fake. If I want to watch fiction about rich, young, scandalous people, I’ll watch Gossip Girl. 

And Audrina, I don’t know, she’s just always got on my nerves. Especially with the whole Justin-Bobby thing. Blah!

I really like Lauren Conrad, Lo Bosworth and Brody Jenner. And I like Whitney Port too, but she’s sort of boring and doesn’t add anything to the show IMO, but many people seem to like her and love her being on the show.

So, I’ll probably watch The Hills occasionally to see what Lauren is up to, but otherwise, I’m done with it. Now if Heidi and Spencer leave the show, maybe I’ll become a regular viewer again - or a semi-regular viewer. But most likely not even then, because I still have a huge problem with the show being 90% fake.

Big Brother Season 10 Episodes 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19

Wow, I haven’t posted about Big Brother 10 in about two weeks and I’ve missed writing about five episodes! I can’t even remember all of what happened on them. I just know that on episode 15, Libra was evicted (Yay!) and Renny won HOH. On episode 16 Renny nominated Jerry and April. On episode 17 Dan won POV and decided not to use it to save either Jerry or April. And on episode 18 April was evicted (Woohoo!).

I actually wouldn’t have minded if Jerry would have been evicted. But I think I was glad April was because her and Ollie got on my nerves. At first I thought they were cute together, but then it got annoying. LOL! Plus, I’ve never been all that fond of April. I used to like Ollie, but that didn’t last long.

On episode 19 Dan won HoH (Yay!) and nominated Jerry and Memphis for eviction. I liked when Dan said “If you’re going to be a monkey, be a gorilla” during the HOH comp. That’s from a song I used to love called “I’ll Bee Dat” by Redman. Redman rapped “If you gotta be a monkey, be a gorilla.”

Anyway, I knew when Dan was making that deal with Ollie during the HOH competition that his plans were to continue to appear to be weak and he was hoping that anyone who was nominated and/evicted would put most, or all, of the blame on Ollie. It’s an interesting concept and Dan better hope that it works or he’s in big trouble.

But I’m glad that Dan made the deal with Ollie; it certainly makes the game and season interesting and entertaining. I just hope it works out for him.

Dan is still my favorite houseguest this season. I would say at this point that he is one of my favorite BB houseguests of all time.  Dan For The WIN! GO DAN!
