Big Brother is down to its final three and although many don’t perticularly like at least two remaining housguests it has been a pretty good summer. The live show opened up following the nomination ceremony where Kevin and Natalie had a “fake fight” to try and dupe Michele and Jordan. The two girls seemed to buy the idea that Kevin/Natalie weren’t a pair but the two were still working together. I’m not sure what the point of faking a fight was but oh well. The shift then came to Kevin working Michele and Natalie working Jordan. The two didn’t know that was the case but they each had a backup plan just in case the Power of Veto didn’t pan out the way they wanted. Kevin winning that is.
The night before the PoV Michele and Jordan talked and realized that Natalie and Kevin were playing them. Jordan didn’t understand why Natalie would push for Michele to go when she wanted Kevin out and luckily figured things out on her own. In the opposite bedroom Natalie and Kevin talked. Kevin wasn’t too happy that Natalie put all the pressure on him to win the veto but she was right, all four of them would have opened Pandora’s Box in that situation.

Tonight was another one of those strange Big Brother 11 episodes that just make you question if someone was “acting” on the show. It all started off by showcases the two huge Russell blowups. The first followed his nomination after Jeff used the Power of Veto on Kevin. Jeff joined Russell outside to “face the music” and the two held a heated argument which was mostly about who was the bigger man, who would hold to their threats of beat downs and killings and Jordan joining in and wearing “Jeff’s pants”. The battle was much more violent and heated on the live feeds and I’m surprised how well CBS cut out all of Jeff’s swears.
Following that huge blowup there was another a few days later which was started by Russell. He began yelling at Jeff again but Jeff just shrugged it off this time. Jordan, however, did NOT like being called fat and took to Russell. Literally. She screamed in his face Chima style and actually chest bumped him. It was crazy to see Jordan so angry and even she didn’t think she had it in her. The attack then turned from Jeff to Jordan as Russell attacked her weight, even though she isn’t fat at all. He then screamed at everyone else, saying they deserve to go home as Jeff will put them all up and they were stupid for not realizing that they were living “under Jeff’s house”. It was kind of stupid, in my opinion, to attach people in that matter when he could have tried, at least a little, to get votes. Stranger things have happened.

Wow was that a Big Brother episode or what? They promised us a “double eviction” on Thursday but with tonight’s drama I doubt Thursday can top the craziness of tonight. It all started off following the nominations of Chima and Natalie. Chima was not happy that Michele “went against her” after becoming friends during Chima’s HoH week. That led to Chima not wearing her microphone, throwing it into the pool and disobeying several Big Brother rules. Natalie, Lydia and Kevin all tried to force Chima to stay in the game and the edit tends to lead that Big Brother kicked her out, rather then her quitting. Chima would not go to the Diary Room but was forced to when producer Allison Grodner called her from the loud speaker. It’s very rare that we hear production on the TV version of the show but this was an extreme situation. When Chima entered the Diary Room someone was there to greet her and she simply walked straight through and out the door.
A few minutes later Allison then came over the loud speaker yet again and called everyone to the living room. She told them that Chima was asked to leave the show and further news would be brought in the morning about the nominations. Of course Jordan, Jeff, Russell and Michele were all happy about the situation and spoke together about why Chima deserved to go. The other three were not so happy as Natalie lashed out, blaming Michele for Chima’s leave. It doesn’t make sense that Michele would get the blame, she didn’t force Chima to break the rules and Natalie/Kevin agreed that it was Chima’s own fault. They weren’t happy about it, but understood the situation and tried to calm down Natalie before she made the same mistake.

The Big Brother 11 house is simmering in a sure to be explosive live show on Thursday as they focus on Michele and her ultimate power as a floater. Following the nomination ceremony Ronnie realized he’ll probably be going, but still has some pull as Chima/Natalie/Jessie have his back and could rally for votes. On the other side we have Lydia who has been told she’s safe yet cries once again, hoping Kevin will save her with the veto. Other then that Jeff had a small segment, his only Diary Room the entire episode, about he and Jordan laying low. I think that was the producers trying to let us know they aren’t showing ANY of Jeff and Jordan this episode and simply wanted to give a reason why.
Now that the post-nomination reactions are over it was time to jump into the “save Ronnie” appeal. Chima was first to try Russell in changing his mind, flirting a bit with him which won’t be happy too much I assume. Natalie/Jessie then entered the conversation, as always, and tried to push Lydia to go. Russell wouldn’t budge though so they began working on Michele. Natalie started and Jessie once again jumped in but Michele didn’t really say yes or no. She simply told them she didn’t like Ronnie but they realized she’s the swing vote. I’m not sure if they DO realize she’ll be on the lower end of the totem poll and considering its Michele they are talking to, she probably realizes that.

Sorry for the lack of recaps for the last episode but I am back and Big Brother episodes are finally starting to make sense! Following the nomination of Michele and Jordan, the two believed they were simply pawns and Jeff believed that too. He spoke to both nominees, claiming they will both be safe but then again he has just as much clue whats going on as they do. Casey was also believing that the girls would be off the block soon with Ronnie going up, so he took the time to continue to bash Jessie. Casey was not a Jessie fan and also hated the “rat” Ronnie. Things seemed to change though when a harmless game of truth or dare was played, outing Ronnie and revealing a lot to Casey.
The game of truth or dare started with Kevin cuddling with Jessie. It lasted a few seconds until Jessie woke up, but the fun didn’t stop there. Next up was Ronnie, who was dared to hug Casey. He was up to the challenge and although Casey hates Ronnie, the hug lasted for around 10 seconds but the aftermath lasted longer. After realizing that Russell and Natalie put Ronnie up to the hug, things clicked. He realized that Ronnie being buddy buddy with those two meant they were no longer at each others throats and probably getting along. Casey was on to the fact that Ronnie may not go up as a pawn but still clung onto the hope that he would be.

After last weeks crazy live eviction, Big Brother 11 returned live for a second go and was rather predictable. Following the stupid nomination of Jordan, the two nominees Laura and Jordan discussed the situation. They were best friends, but both wanted to stay in the game so decided to still fight. While Jordan clung to Jeff (which the show has finally made at least some acknowledgment of) Laura went to Ronnie and tried to make a deal to stay.
Up in the HoH Laura talked to Ronnie and told him that with Jordan/Jeff still in the game he will have two people coming after him, not just one. That made Ronnie thing and it actually almost switched up the votes. He brought up the idea to his then posse of Chima, Lydia, Kevin and Natalie. Natalie was the only one to disagree with the plan and once Ronnie brought up Russell campaigning for Laura to stay, which was a lie, she had enough.
