I'm hoping it's better than 9. Looks like a more diverse cast. The 75 year old ex-Marine should be interesting.
I like the new house design with the different decade themes. _________________

Joking.
Somewhere between 12-16 strangers (although they haven't always been strangers due to twists) get locked in a house for 2 1/2 months. Their every move is followed by more cameras than I can count. They compile that footage for 2 taped shows a week and then a live show where there is an eviction (the other house guests vote to evict).
Throughout the week they compete in a Head of Household competition where the winner gets to nominate two people for eviction. It also ensures their safety for the week.
Then there is a Power of Veto competition. The winner gets to pull themselves off the block, if they are nominated. Or they can pull someone else off the block, if they are not nominated.
They will also have food competitions, determining what they get to eat for the week.
And luxury competitions where they can win prizes, trips, cash, etc.
The grand prize for the last man/woman standing is $500k. The runner up gets $50k.
It's more of a mental game than physical, but there are some physical competitions. _________________

Forgot to mention that their every move (except during the live show) is covered on the live Real Player stream. It costs but there are a lot of fan sites (like jokers) that recaps what happens and uploads virtually all the video footage on youtube. _________________

They're all eligible for the a retirement fund compared to last year's cast.
I do know the New Orleans lady is up there in years.
I hope she gets the boot. She's already annoying me. _________________

They have a few in store, I think, but the only one so far was the predetermined HOH.
Production mentioned something about a secret room (perhaps the room at the end of the hall upstairs) and food comps will be a little different this year.
I actually like that the houseguests are all strangers. It's been awhile. _________________

What's sad. Is in tonight's episode we saw more strategy and scheming than we saw in the first month of last season's disaster.
Renny really is crazy. The whole fight she had with Jessie in the kitchen might have been one of the most idiotic things I've seen.
And I'm glad Brian is on the block. I was on the fence with him in episode one, but he's thinking he's running the house. He isn't Dr. Will, he far from the Puppet Master. So check the ego and pack your bags.
Don't these people realize anyone who comes in and tries to make this HUGE power play this early on never lasts. _________________

| Yeah the show picked up that second ep. Brian is so retarded. He was a good talker and could have gone far if he wasnt an idiot. That Angie chick is pretty hot. |

I usually follow the feeds with updates from jokers, but more so from the videos they use to post, but apparently CBS isnt allowing them to post videos anymore. Any other web sites like jokers that post videos of the live feeds?
Thanks for any links. |

Yeah I think Brian could have done well, but he made the classic mistake of going full throttle way too fast. Don't these people watch previous seasons before they go into the house? Brian admitted on housecalls the only season he saw was All-Stars. I think his ego did him in as well. He tried to be a Dr. Will and he's not even a poor man's Dr. Will.
I wasn't really that surprised to see Steven booted.
The Jerry - Libra - Renny fight was pretty funny.
And I'll look around for other video clips/highlights. Even though I have the feeds, I would go there too and see what I missed and you can get a recap from the descriptions easier than you can from scanning the word by word recaps. _________________

Really good episode tonight.
Jessie starts to lose it and begs, pleads, grovels for Keesha to replace him with Libra.
Memphis blows up and goes at Jerry for calling him a "womanizer."
That's pathetic that the winner of the POV only had to sit in there for just over 20 minutes when the others where in there 15 minutes+ longer than they had to be. Just count to an hour.
Jessie is so arrogant, it's very entertaining.
We also go a banner sighting. News that America's Player will be brought back, but for a week only. And the show is moving from Wednesday night to Thursday night (its old night). _________________

Evicted:
HOH is an endurance comp, so we won't know for awhile.
America's Player:
And who hasn't gotten in a fight with Jerry? Seems every week he and someone get into it. _________________
