Big Brother 12 - Final Live Feed Report - Tues. Into Wed. Sept. 15


One cameraman has liked to focus on the shark all summer. With this extended stretch of nothing on the feeds, the live feeds jumped the shark last Thursday.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of The Waiting Game:
  • Nerf football.
  • Pool.
  • Naps.
  • Cards.
  • Eating.
  • Talking sports.
  • Talking about others from the season (nothing really new).
  • Talking about the finale and facing the others.
  • Packing clothes.
  • Lane fell right asleep for his last night.
  • Hayden and Enzo were in bed, but awake talking.
  • They liken it to the excitement of children awaiting Christmas morning.
  • Enzo was the last to conk out, tossing and turning.
Be sure to stop back tonight at 8 PM for a night of Survivor and Big Brother right here on the blog! Bring snacks and beverages!

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Monday, Sept. 13




A whole lotta nothin' going on:
  • Talking about sports.
  • Talking about being in the final three.
  • Playing with the Nerf ball.
  • Delusions of future fame.
  • Rinse and repeat.

Survivor: Nicaragua Premieres WEDNESDAY!

Survivors ready? The new season kicks off Wednesday night 8 PM ET. Looking at the cast, there are plenty of both teams I think I'll like. Of course there are a few who could leave right away, too! I'm posting the video with Jeff Probst's assessment of the castaways. I usually like his take on them and, after all, who would be more of a pro for analyzing them?

I'll probably be handling the blogging of the show a bit differently this season. I'm not doing the reviews for the show over on TV Squad (but I will be doing The Amazing Race there - premiere date 9/26). I'll definitely be having the usual blog party posts for commenting here and I might go a bit more with a live blogging aspect during them instead of lots of notes taken and major bits in the post. Right now I'm undecided.

The esteemed and lovely Margo will be running the blog pool for the show. I imagine she'll be along shortly with the list of pool participants. We have a big cast this season and it looks like it's gonna be a good one. You know my heart is with the older tribe, but may the best castaway win ... and the rest be thrown to sea ... or something.

Big Brother 12 - Clips Episode Blog Party

big brother,jackiestvblog

The show is about to start here on the East Coast. As tonight is the "never seen before footage clips" show, the real fun is in the comments section. Everyone is invited to join in with your thoughts! Later tonight (or, worst case scenario, early in the morning), my full show review will be posted over on TV Squad.

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Update, Saturday Into Sunday, Sept. 12


His future's so bright that he has to put on shades to sleep.
Or, so he thinks.

It's as I expected, a thrill a minute with only the Brigade in the house and little game talk at all. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Delusional Dreamers:
  • Enzo is back to life which is a good thing. He's more entertaining than either Hayden or Lane.
  • Both of them would talk solely sports, Steamboat, and flying for hours.
  • At least Enzo adds a bit of spice.
  • They are all seriously deluded about what's going to happen to them after the season.
  • They seem to think it's all going to be never-ending money to do fun things and Hollywood work offers.
  • They're sadly mistaken.
  • Enzo is upset that Hayden has been telling Lane that he (Enzo) would beat him (Lane) in the final two.
  • I think that if he's in the final two, Hayden has the votes in the bag. He played a good social game and stepped up the comps performance.
  • If it's Lane and Enzo, it's more of a toss-up. Enzo played a better social game, but sucked at comps. Lane played an okay not thrilling social game, but at least performed a bit better. Enzo would definitely have the Brendon and Rachel vote for his social game, his friendship and the DVD they saw of him winning the veto over Ragan.
  • Very little game talk other than of past hamsters from this season and rehashing comps.
  • While the feeds were blocked, they apparently filmed the reminiscing over the rest of the cast for the show.
  • Very little interesting going on at all.
