James Is Safe (For Now) On Big Brother 9

Big Brother 9, CBS No Comments

With only six people left in the Big Brother house I was wondering exactly what would be on the show as this is usually when they start using stuff from earlier. Thankfully they only used some footage that was about a week old but at least it was good! The ‘old’ footage I’m talking about were the pranks on Sheila. They actually came from April Fools day and weren’t able to use some REALLY good stuff they did to Josh. They did pull some good ones on Sheila though, such as the toilet papering of her room. I’m still not sure the powder dumping falls as ’safe’ in the rule book but I guess it was all in good fun.

The food competition was actually pretty interesting. It’s funny how much more entertaining it was was music and editing as the live feed footage of the competition was rather boring and tedious. What the houseguests had to do was create mash potato tunnel down a ramp. At the end of the ramp were several tubes where they had to maneuver the tunnels to. Once the tunnel were fully formed (or somewhat formed) both Sheila and Sharon would start pouring gravy down the tunnels. The tubes that they were able to fill up with the gravy would be the food items or prizes they would win. They actually ended up getting a lot of food, a new grill and yard toys. It was a very unique challenge and finally one that was fun to watch, on TV, and I’m sure fun to compete in!

Now it was all down to the nominations which I’m sure everyone thought were set in stone. A few days ago I posted a video showing James’ major break down to Adam in the HoH room. One thing I find interesting about this on the show is how they handled Natalie’s exit from the room, allowing James to persuade Adam to keep him safe. On the show they have Natalie explaining how it was “best for her to leave the room” since she had said enough. But in fact if you watch the live feed footage, you will see that Natalie was called to the Diary Room right after James broke down. People in the house and on the web are saying that producers felt it would be good to get Natalie out of there, to kind of allow James the freedom to talk to Adam opening. Them forcing her to say it was her choice to leave the room, on the show, kind of drives that point home and assures a known idea that yes, the producers do influence the game. Even though they say they don’t. In the end James did pull through and Adam placed both Sheila and Sharon on the block. Next time we will see what happened with the POV. Of course if you are in the BB know you already know what happens but for those who aren’t make sure to check back Tuesday for all the dirt that goes down! I can already tell Wednesday night is going to be another crazy one.

Is Pop Fiction In Hiding?

E!, Pop Fiction 1 Comment

A few weeks ago a little reality show came along to play with the minds of the paparazzi. But after two weeks of shenanigans, Pop Fiction is no where to be found on E! or the TV Guide listings for the channel. The website is saying new episodes are supposed to air Sundays at 10:30, yet for the past two weeks the show has been MIA. I’m wondering exactly what’s going on with the show that broke new ground on the media stake out. Are they waiting for the perfect opportunity to pop back up and surprise us when we least expect it? Or are celebrities just not turning out like Ashton Kutcher had hoped? One thing is for sure. Pop Fiction is MIA and nobody really knows where it has gone to. Hopefully it’s just building up for a huge prank fest, or it could have just sizzled out like several other shows that have come before it.
