With four players left it was time for Big Brother 9 to finally get down to its final three. Last time Ryan won a very controversial HoH and placed both Sheila and Sharon on the block. Sheila didn’t take this nomination so well simply because she was on the block. Does she forget Sharon has been nominated five weeks in a row? I’m not sure why Sheila was scared since her and Adam have been close the entire game but it seems like she doesn’t remember that.
Although it was somewhat agreed that Sharon would go from the get-go Ryan, thanks to Sharon, was worried that Adam may take Sheila to the end. This made Ryan think that Sharon would stay, since they had a secret alliance, and he would basically be taken to the end by both Sharon or Adam. With this thought in his mind Ryan went to Adam and asked him to evict Sheila, his ex-partner, keeping Sharon in the game. Adam seemed to go along with this idea but also said he’d say anything to simply make it to the final two.
Before the Power of Veto could occur it was time to chain Adam and Sheila together. It was a very humorous segment to see the two bicker with each other. It seems as though they act the part very well as we all know they are very close to each other. Its almost like the “All in the Family” couple where they always fought and bickered yet loved each other in the end. Although I don’t think Sheila or Adam really “love” each other, they are closer then ever and could just go to the final two.
It was then time for the PoV where the houseguests had to match pictures of the jury members and two statements about that person. In the beginning Sheila took a very surprising lead but Ryan caught up to her. It was then a battle between those two on who would win the very last veto. Ryan ended up claiming victory and called himself the “power whore”. He really is as he’s won a ton of challenge lately and although he came in not knowing much about the game, he sure has proven himself worthy of a win simply due to his challenge skills.
Knowing that nobody was really safe now something very odd happened. Adam asked Sharon for a deal that if she promised to take him to the final two that he would keep her. She kind of freaked out and wouldn’t let him know either way. This small gesture then set off a chain of events. Sharon quickly went to Ryan and let him know what Adam had just done. He was very angry and believed at that point that Adam was closer to Sheila then he thought. When Sharon left Adam then went up to the HoH room and lied his ass off to Ryan. He told Ryan that Sharon was the one to ask for the deal and even said it seemed like Sharon had a deal with Ryan simply from that “gesture”. This then sent Adam and Ryan into a yelling match which made it seem like the veto could possibly be used.
It was then time for the veto ceremony and eviction to occur. Ryan was asked to do the veto “live” right in front of Julie although it wasn’t live for us. He chose to not use it and it was assumed he thought Sheila would go. Adam then had to vote for either Sharon or Sheila to be evicted. He chose to evict Sharon, after five nominations, to leave the game once again. Although Ryan acted shocked he was in fact in the loop that Sharon would be evicted. It wasn’t shown on the show but they agreed that Sharon should go shorty before the show was taped.
After Sharon’s short talk with Julie it was then time for the HoH to begin. The players all sat on a boogie-board and had to hold onto a rope. They were then raised to a slop where water began pouring down on them from the slop and as rain. The last person hanging on would win the first part of the three part HoH and automatically move to the last round of the HoH. Although the show was shown tonight we already know who won the first and second part of the HoH. To find out highlight the following: Ryan won the 1st part of the HOH and Adam won the 2nd part of the HoH.
Tonight I honestly had no clue how the votes were going to go down. But they sure were exciting as nobody, except Adam and Ryan, expected it. It all began post-veto and we saw Natalie’s slow freak out. She basically begged the guys to keep her in and never really complained to Sheila. Adam and Ryan were in control of the votes and she knew that. Knowing that Natalie was going and wanting to cause some drama, both Adam and Ryan called a ‘house meeting’ where they basically put everything out in the open. They got Natalie to admit she’s been playing both sides, that she’s with them over the girls and most importantly, that she would put Sheila up on the block and evict her. That plays a HUGE role come eviction time and I’m sure sure regrets saying it now.
In the jury house the drama continues. Both Chelsia and Joshuah had a bad feeling that either James or Sharon would be joining them and both were right. We saw James walk through the jury door and only Matt was happy to see him. Although Chelsia was glad to see James, her emotions were about to change. He let her have it by telling her that it is her fault he was evicted. James blames her lash out at everyone, after she was evicted, for his eviction. She took it very hard and leapt up only to run to her room. She felt bad for causes the “only person she liked in the house” to be evicted but James quickly came her to her rescue. He told her he’s not sad he lost the money but happy to have “fallen for a girl on TV”. I swear James has to be bipolar after his “I hate you, I love you” stunt.
Back in the Big Brother house Julie got the houseguests talking. She opened things up with the “house meeting” and both Sharon and Sheila had their say. Sharon avoided the question as usual while Sheila let us know how she felt. She was mad that Natalie would side with the boys over her and still couldn’t get over the fact Natalie would put her up, even though she put Natalie up a few days prior. Julie then had a house meeting of her own by asking everyone if they would rather have someone who is more deserving or someone they could be in the final two. Everyone said ‘more deserving’ but of course they will considering they were sitting outside the Diary Room.
It then came down to the vote and like I said I had NO clue how this would go. I knew Natalie would be leaving I just didn’t know if Ryan and Adam would pull the tie stunt that they did. Ryan went in first and voted Natalie as expected. Adam then voted for Sharon, screwing Sheila over. Sheila then had to break the tie and decided to send Natalie home. She told her she had to because she stated twice that she would put Sheila up on the block if she won the final four HoH. I mean it was a legit reason for voting Natalie out so I don’t think Adam and Ryan’s plan to put the blood on Sheila’s hands really worked. Natalie seemed more upset about the two guys when talking to Julie so I have a feeling they will be in for a shock if one of them is sitting next to Sheila in the final two.
The HoH challenge was complete luck as all the questions were a guessing game. It was titled ‘Fact or Fiction’ and they had to either guess if an event in the house was true or false. Most were fiction since true and logical ideas would have been to easy. One question stumped a few of them being: “There is still a pre-existing relationship in the house”. When Julie said the question I realized she was talking about the guinea pigs but only Ryan got the question right. This tied him up with Sharon, who I kind of wanted to win, so they went on to a tie breaker. Ryan ended up pulling through with the tie breaker and claims his second HoH. But as we know HoH just means immunity this week as the veto is the most important thing. Nominations won’t really matter either as whoever holds the veto simply holds the vote as well. We will find out who wins this veto and who makes the final three next Tuesday with a special LIVE edition. Then the final two is crowned the next day so next week will be a very crazy and exciting week. Oh how I can’t wait!
After over 60 days in the house, Sheila has finally won her first challenge and first taste of power. On last Wednesday we were left with the houseguests dangling in their “torture chambers” as they vied for HoH. Sharon was the first to drop out, citing that she hurt her back the night before. For some reason I think Sharon throws a bunch of these challenges. She knows she’ll go up but seeing her streak, she also stays each and every time. After about two hours the deal making began. Sheila wanted the HoH badly but Natalie and Ryan knew they to be safe. Sheila told Ryan fairly early that she wouldn’t put him up since he saved her, but Natalie was a different story. Natalie was worried Sheila would put her up so Sheila promised her she wouldn’t be nominated. When Adam and Sharon returned outside Ryan quickly dropped. This mean Natalie should have dropped to give Sheila the win. But Natalie took her good old time, saying she couldn’t do it since she wasn’t a quitter.
After about 30 minutes of Natalie wavering back and forth and asking “what would Jesus do”, she dropped down giving Sheila the win. I’m happy for Sheila as she has been playing an interesting game and could possibly win. It was obvious who she would put up, Adam and Sharon, so they spent the rest of the episode promoting the “Natalie has lied to everyone” bit. It was all about Natalie and her lies and basicially securing the votes for her to go. The plan is for Adam to come off the block and Natalie going up and out. Although that was the center of the show, Sheila’s HoH room played a huge one as well. She was the only one to not see her family since the show began so it was nice to see her react to that. All in all it was a pretty good episode. Will the plan to get Natalie out work? Find out next Wednesday when I’ll tell you!
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.
On the latest Big Brother 9 basically no gameplay or strategy was shown. Rather we were stuck with watching the houseguests play hide and see, make a whirlpool, and stare at a black and white picture in hopes of seducing it. I’m tired of the Sunday night episodes where all they basically show us is crappy fill ins. We all know that strategy and drama is going down on the feeds. Why can’t CBS show that stuff? Tons of drama went down weeks before with James throwing a jar of pickles at Natalie yet that doesn’t air? They aired Dick pouring iced tea on Jen’s head and burning her with cigarettes yet we don’t see pickles flying at Natalie head?
I have a feeling they are trying to portray James as the “good guy” in the house who “lost his soulmate” and well the pickle bit just doesn’t fit well with that. I sure hope Sunday’s get better soon or they might as well stop airing them and just show the 15 minutes they spend on showing nominations. Oh yeah, James and Joshuah went on the block. Too bad they didn’t show much about why or how that happened, good thing the feeds are there or else we would be fooled into thinking all they do is play childish games all day long!
Lately some of the houseguests in the Big Brother house have been acting a little childish *cough*chelsia*cough*. So I’ve decided to create a little snippet of just how childish the houseguests, especially one, seems. Let me know what you think after you watch!
With four players left it was time for Big Brother 9 to finally get down to its final three. Last time Ryan won a very controversial HoH and placed both Sheila and Sharon on the block. Sheila didn’t take this nomination so well simply because she was on the block. Does she forget Sharon has been nominated five weeks in a row? I’m not sure why Sheila was scared since her and Adam have been close the entire game but it seems like she doesn’t remember that.
