Big Brother: BB24 Blog Pool OPENS!

 

WHO WANTS TO JUMP INTO THE BLOG POOL?

What's it all about?

Our esteemed and accomplished Lifeguard SueGee (AKA SqueeGee) will randomly match up pool entrants with the hamsters in the habitrail. Once matched up with a hamster, you need to cheer that one on until they're evicted or win it all. Yeah, even if they're obnoxious. Deal with it! Of course, we won't have the cast reveal until the day before the season starts, but the pool can be opened without them! Bwahaha!

What will I win?

Well, IF you win, you'll be pleased to know there is NO CASH PRIZE! Nuh-uh. No way. That would cheapen the whole thing, don't ya think? Instead of paltry prizes, you get BRAGGING RIGHTS. Yep! From now through all eternity, YOU will be a blog pool winner here. Feel free (and I encourage it) to put your win in your sign-off signature so that everyone can oooh and ahhh. Can't you hear the crowd now?

How do I get in on this wild action?!?!

You just need to sign up in the comments of THIS POST ONLY. If you put your name in on another post or Facebook or Twitter, it might be missed. If you come here as anonymous, you must come up with some sort of name in your comment. Otherwise, we can't tell the anonymous folks apart. Well, except for the unruly ones, maybe.

When is the deadline for joining the pool?

The deadline for signing up is Friday, July 8, at NOON Pacific Time (that's 3pm ET). Don't put it off! Sign up TODAY! No stragglers!

Big Brother: BB24 STUFF

 

Yes, I do still exist. I'm still in a wheelchair these days. But I think the hospital stays are over. I apologize for my absence, but this has been a rough road. Anyway ... the show itself seems to be a bit on an odd path as well.

• It will be one of the shortest seasons, if not the shortest, at 74 days. I believe only the winter season during that writers' strike was shorter. The finale is set for September 28.
• There has been no house tour or cast reveal as of yet, four days before the show.
• The cast reveal is set for Tuesday, the day before the premiere.
• There has been no mention of a house tour.
• Julie Chen-Moonves remains the hostess.
• The schedule remains the same as previous years with the the exception of a live move-in 90-minute premiere --   Sunday 8PM ET/PT, Wednesday 8PM ET/PT, and Thursday nights 9PM ET/PT.
• The live feeds should be starting after the premiere finishes airing on the West Coast. But don't hold me to that. The Live Feeds have an announcement posted that they will begin at 12:30AM ET on July 7. Can we trust them after last year's erroneous announcements? Hmm.
• I will be doing a live-blogging blog party post for the season premiere at 8PM ET on Wednesday, July 6.
• If people want it, I can set up a discussion post for The Challenge which airs at 9:30PM ET after BB. I won't be live-blogging that show but probably will make some commentary.
• As usual, I will be covering the live feeds. Since they will start so late here on the East Coast, my first live feeds report probably won't be until Thursday morning.
• There will be a blog pool and I will set up a sign-up post specifically for it. Don't ask to get in it on this post! The actual blog pool put together (by the esteemed SueGee) will be later than usual due to the very late cast reveal.

That's all for now.

Survivor 42: April 27 Episode Blog Gathering

 I realize I've let you all down this season and I apologize. I am still a bit lost on the show having missed its first few episodes and only seeing parts of others. However, I should recover enough to handle Big Brother when it comes around. 

Survivor 42: April 20 Episode Blog Gathering

 Yep, I still don't know what's going on so much on the show. I did watch the two hour show last week. However, I'm still no good on names or what's gone down in the past.

Healthwise, slow but sure, I guess. I've become pretty decent with the wheelchair.

Survivor 42: April 13 Episode Blog Party

I am home now. However, between my health issues and the fact that I remain mostly clueless about this season, it will be a loss for me. I hope my health is back on track for BB.
