After 71 days of fun, drama, fights and twists, Big Brother 10 is now officially over with Dan claiming all 7 jury votes to win one of the best Big Brother seasons yet. The night started off with a well rounded recap of the entire summer. With Brian and his friends leaving first things looked bleak for Dan and Memphis, his two remaining friends, but when their alliance was born it ruled the entire game. Dan and Memphis worked everyone until the very end and that’s why that sat in the finals. Both played off of each other, keeping each other safe yet still playing for themselves. It all came down to the seven votes and the seven people they helped evict.

At the jury house everyone had an opinion on who they wanted to see. Libra wanted Jerry out but Renny didn’t even want to think of looking at him. Keesha wanted Memphis in the jury, for obvious reasons, while was very adamant about wanting Dan out. When Jerry walked through the door everyone was talking about him. Well rather bashing him. He didn’t catch the discussion though but most gave him a cold shoulder as they weren’t too thrilled he was back in their lives. All the girls on the jury had a very strong opinion on who should win. April battled for Memphis to win the money, simply because she hated that Dan got not only her but her boyfriend Ollie out as well. Keesha, Libra and Renny stuck to their guns for Dan and continually bashed Memphis. Renny said that Memphis didn’t play the game and she was in no way going to give him her vote. April basically said the same for Dan and continued on with her delusional self. Jerry seemed still upset with Dan but didn’t really give much of a reason. Michelle stayed rather quiet, other then telling Jerry about her trip with Dan. Ollie of course said hardly anything.

On the special edition of Big Brother 10 some of the best moments from the season are showcased. Although only a few new scenes were chosen it was a nice way to end the season with a recap of all the good, and sometimes bad, memories. The show started off with Jerry being evicted and both Dan and Memphis celebrating. They’ve been planning for several weeks now to get to this point and were ecstatic to actually be in the finals. At one point they both agreed they were there because they controlled their emotions and didn’t get into any fights. That may just be the case.

When it came time to showcase some of the houseguests both Jerry and Renny received the most airtime. They were the comedic relief of the season. Jerry’s senior antics were the talk of many conversations in the house and with the first of the new footage we saw Jerry attempting to do a rap. Ollie told him to not dance when rapping, but Jerry didn’t listen. They also showed his fights with Memphis and others and both Renegades were shocked at how well he actually did. With Renny you never knew what you were going to get. I’m so glad they finally showed her impressions on the show as they were great on the feeds. I’m surprised they didn’t show her doing Keesha though as she was dead on. Of course they just had to show Renny’s famous antic from night one of being stuck in her room. It set off one of the better feuds on the show between Jessie that lasted the entire time both were in the house.

Big Brother is known for it’s explosive arguments this season and I think after the HoH was won there won’t be a dry spell anytime soon. Following Jerry’s very crazy Power of Veto speech nobody was happy with him. Everyone from Memphis to Michelle felt Jerry went out of his way to belittle Dan, calling him “Judas”. Dan couldn’t have been more thrilled though as he felt it helped his game. He knew everyone was angry with Jerry now and the target was moving off of himself.

Although Libra felt dead in the water, Keesha somewhat buried herself a bit by getting in a fight with April. She and Ollie wanted to switch up the game since April felt Keesha was jealous of her looks. This left Ollie to go to Libra about using their votes plus Jerry’s to keep her in the game. She only needed to get Dan to vote for her and that was the issue. The problem came when Memphis offered Dan an alliance called the “renegades”. It would consist of the two of them plus Keesha and Renny. They felt they should keep their alliance separate from the girls but string them along as far as they could. When Libra talked to Dan about being the swing vote he couldn’t give her a yes or no and she accepted that. Dan wavered on his vote but still seemed set on voting Libra out with his new alliance.

For the interview from home we finally got to see Libra’s husband talk about the “issue” of her leaving her twins. This means BB is betting on Libra going, since most who get a chat from home are mostly likely on the bubble to leave. In his chat Libra’s husband let us know she is a great mother and that his mother in law helps him with Libra’s children. They then played the Michelle freak out for him and he was obviously shaken by it. He didn’t like the way she talked about Libra taking the trip and that her children should be taken away. Although he knew she was strong he felt she was there for the right reasons, hopefully putting her critics to rest.

When it came time to talk to the houseguests Julie focused on the Dan/Jerry fight. Dan joked about it saying that Jerry should call him “Mr. Judas” while Jerry was still angry about Dan (America) voting Jessie out. When Julie talked to HoH Michelle alone she let us know that she wants her parents to be proud. She also talked about being friends with April and how it’s basically for the game at the moment.

Julie then returned back downstairs to administer the live vote. Although some were wavering it was obvious that Libra would go, and she knew it. With 6 - 0 votes, Libra walked out of the house in a good mood and saying that she had “fun”. It’s sad to see Libra go as she brought much drama to the house but the new HoH should do the very same.

During the HoH the houseuguests were given quotes from the diary room made by Brian, Steven, Angie and Jessie. The first person to buzz in would get to say who said the quote, if they were correct they could eliminate someone from the Head of Household. If they were incorrect, they would be out of the challenge. Renny got the first question right and kicked April out. Next up was Dan who also got his correct and booted Jerry from winning. Ollie, Memphis and Dan then answered incorrectly, kicking themselves out of the competition. That left best friends Keesha and Renny. Renny buzzed in last and correctly answered Brian. That gave Renny her first HoH win and shifted the power once again. Who will she put up? It’s going to be an interesting one and another one for the books I’m sure!

It was a rather slow night for Big Brother 10 but that didn’t mean it would be fight-less! Following the nominations the two nominees, Libra and Keesha, filled us in that they already knew they would be up. Dan thought he would go up and was happy to be safe and Jerry dropped a small bomb, saying the only way Dan could justify voting out Jessie is if he was America’s Player. Whoops! That was the case. I bet Jerry will regret all the “Judas” talk when he gets out of the house.

In the Hippy Room Libra and Keesha rallied their troops: Dan and Renny and let them know that everything was ok. Neither of the girls wanted to campaign but agreed that April had to leave. They believe she’s the reason they are being targeted and both promised to get her out if they stayed. In the HoH room Keesha talked a bit with Michelle where she did some Libra bashing. Michelle thought Libra was the one who rallied for Jessie go to but in reality it was Keesha. Following their chat the Power of Veto players were selected. Playing with Michelle, Libra and Keesha would be Memphis, Jerry and April. Not looking too good for the two nominees now is it?

Knowing he was in the PoV Jerry realized he could have some power. He wanted Michelle to put Dan up on the block since he wants him out so badly and Michelle seemed to agree. April, on the other hand, wanted Libra out badly and was happy she didn’t have to be “fake” to them anymore. She’s FINALLY admitting to being fake!

The night before the PoV Dan and Memphis decided to give Renny, Libra and Keesha their own wake up call. They put on masks and busted into their bedroom. At first they screamed but it quickly turned to laughter. Little did they know the PoV wouldn’t be so much fun as it would actually make them cry! What they had to do was chop onions and put them in a box. The person with the most onions, in pounds, would win the Power of Veto. They could also go for a reward if they didn’t want to win the Veto.

When it all came down to it, Memphis and April won the mystery prizes. Memphis chose the first envelope and won a dud: an onion necklace. April, in return, won five designer outfits which would turn up a little later. It was then down to the winner of the PoV and it once again came down to Jerry and Libra. One needed the power to stay while the other needed it to possibly change up the game. After weighing both of their onions, Jerry had about 5 pounds more, giving him his second Power of Veto. Could Jerry be the new Veto King?

Since he actually did win the PoV Jerry wanted to put his plan in motion to put Dan on the block. Michelle wasn’t too thrilled this time around but told Jerry to do what he wanted. Later that night the houseguests were treated to a feast, thanks to the food competition. It started off nice as each player said something nice about or to the group. During the “we love yous” Keesha mentioned how she feels her and April could make up, and jokingly said April should share her designer dresses. Libra then made a comment saying that’s the only reason Keesha was being nice to April, I’ll get back to that a little later.

Libra wasn’t done there as she pulled Ollie to the side. Earlier he called her a scallywag and a ho and she was upset. Ollie told her that he was sorry and Libra pulled a crucial move by telling Ollie that Keesha was the one who got the votes for Jessie to go. Upstairs in the HoH Michelle told Keesha about Libra’s “only for the outfits” statement. Keesha wasn’t too happy about it so Michelle pulled April and Libra into the mix. The four girls, once again, fought it out. Each yelled out the other three at least once and it all ended with Keesha leaving the room. That didn’t sit well with Michelle who followed out the room, only to fight a little bit more.

Although the fight went down the night before between the girls, Jerry was the one with the power. Although he didn’t use the PoV he did create a stir with his “anti-Dan” statements and calling him Judas. Nobody liked the fact that Jerry called it “his house” and used his time to bash someone else and their religion. Thursday night should be a fun one as the two girls still have some time to cry for votes. Who will be the one sent packing and how will the power shift again? See you on Thursday!

Big Brother sure isn’t getting any worst but WOW is it getting better then ever! The fights this season are intense and like I’ve never seen before. Following the eviction of Jessie, the house split their feelings as they split their sides. Michelle was upset, obviously, and she cried and screamed to let everyone know. April was upset for another reason, her “friends” backstabbed her by not voting out who she wanted. Oh poor girl, get over it. Libra and Keesha were estatic as they should be, they finally got what they wanted and pulled off a great blindside. Even if Jessie says he knew. The best quote of the night came from Keesha who said she was “sending Jessie back to his real girlfriend. Priceless! Dan was the only one who was neither happy nor sad. I think he wanted Jessie to go, but knew people would explode. Jerry went on him the hardest by saying he should “burn in hell” but Dan decided to send himself to bed, hoping to hide the fight.

When Michelle won the HoH the mood changed for both sides. Michelle was crazy, screaming and yelling that she would avenge Jessie. April was happy as well since her new best buddy Michelle was in power. Is it just me or does April flow with the power more then anyone I’ve ever seen? When the houseguests were let back into the house the fights started with Michelle and Renny. Renny made a comment that morning about Michelle being crazy for staying up for all of the wake up calls. Michelle brought it up, while Renny was standing there, and Renny went off. She went on another one of her tiffs but quickly moved away to let Libra and Keesha fight off the Portuguese Princess and now April. The four girls continued to spat for several minutes, with Jerry chiming in about Dan “burning in hell” now and again. The guys, and Renny, were generally unharmed from the fight but oh how the girls sure pulled the nails out for this one!

During the fight Memphis had to play both sides. He wasn’t happy with those who were saying things about Dan’s religion and decided that he would stick with Dan. He told Dan that he would be safe, since he did have a voice in what Michelle did. Although Memphis didn’t stick up for Dan in the house, he did in the Diary Room and shows the two may work well in the future. Later that night Dan continued his “weakness” when Michelle came to talk to him. He lifted his head out from the pillow for a few moments to talk with Michelle who wanted to know why he voted for Jessie. He wouldn’t say way, rather saying he wasn’t sure why he voted for Jessie to leave. Other then that Michelle didn’t care to talk and left. When she did Dan gave another face to the camera. He’s still playing for America, or too America at least.

Before Michelle got to enter her Head of Household bedroom, Libra asked if they were allowed in. She said that would be, and that although it is a game she would be upset if they didn’t come upstairs. When everyone finally got to see the Portuguese family Michelle has non-stop talked about, some were more happy then others. April acted so happy for Michelle, which angered Memphis a bit. He feels April is a bit fake, which I agree with, and others have seen it as well. Renny also got a bit emotional as she realized that she is missing her family. She went down to cray in the hippy room. We don’t see much of this on the show from Renny but finally the TV audience has seen her softer, less crazy, side.

The next morning it was time for the much anticipated return of the houseguests. The ten who were returning where: Chicken George, Bunky, Amy, Jun, Jase, Janelle, Mike Boogie, Jen, Matty and to host it was Brian. It seemed like a good premise but the ten only got to talk for 30 seconds if that. They hardly got to show their real selves and most seemed scripted. Along with that, Brian was an awful host and basically killed most of the moments.

The entire part of the challenge was for food. For each day one of the BB10 houseguests would challenge a former houseguests on if a news article was true or false. The former player would then have to give a little statement about the article, trying to trick the BB10er into thinking it was true or false. Dan was up first and chose to face Boogie. Dan got the Brett Farve article and although Boogie told him the truth, Dan didn’t believe it and they lost slop for Monday. Some also lost some brain cells as they were upset about the trade. Next up was Renny who chose to face against Jen. Since she probably didn’t feel like being there, Jen told Renny she was her favorite and that her story about gas prices was false. Renny agreed and won food for the house on Tuesday. The next few players got their answers wrong but I’ll give you the choices anyway. Jerry chose Janelle, Memphis chose Amy, Ollie chose Matty (who said Natalie was “hiding in the bushes”) and flirted with Michelle, Libra chose Bunky, Michelle chose Jase and April chose Chicken George who finally won something on Big Brother. Last up was Keesha who faced off against Jun. Although Jun gave her a great story about Paris Hilton saying George Bush was running for President…. again. Keesha disagreed and won food for Sunday. So after that, a somewhat boring segment brought some great players back and put the BB10ers on slop for all but two days.

When everyone got over the shock of seeing some past players, it was all back to the game play. Memphis decided to talk to Michelle since he thought she would be on his side. Although she said she was, it seemed she lost some trust in Memphis. She thought he was more with Libra, Renny and Keesha but he disagreed. He also pulled a bit for Dan when he said he wasn’t with them either. If Michelle was smart she would pull in Memphis and Dan and create three groups of three. Hmm I wonder if its too late to send her a banner plane! Down stairs in her resident room, Renny was upset that April was getting off free for putting Jessie up. She decided to start playing the game and went up to Michelle to tell her this. After telling Michelle that April was the reason Jessie was nominated and evicted it gave Michelle some things to think about but apparently she didn’t think about it enough. In the end Michelle put Libra and Keesha on the block. Since the two are friends it shouldn’t be a big deal but I can assure you that is wrong. On Tuesday we will see some of the worst fights on the season yet. It’s getting ugly my friends and that means it’s getting better for us!

What can I say? Big Brother 10 is showing what Big Brother is meant to be as it continues to shift power and shock not only the house guests but the viewers as well. With a surprise eviction for one player, a rebound shift of power for another and 9 All Stars entering the house who can’t love Big Brother 10?

Following the Power of Veto ceremony it was on awwn as Keesha and Libra wanted to shift the vote to evict Jessie. They knew that April wanted Memphis gone and when they tried she wouldn’t budge on evicting Jessie. Although the two girls pretended to still want Memphis out, Keesha put a plan in motion that would split the group and possibly evict Jessie. She knew that she needed four votes to evict this week but only had three in herself, Libra and Renny. That’s where Dan, America’s Player, came into play. Keesha grabbed Dan, along with Memphis, to show Libra they had the votes. When Dan agreed it was set that Jessie would go, but it was still up to America.

In the backyard April was worried that the two girls would flip and let Jerry know they might. He immediately knew that Dan was the swing vote and talked to him, telling him that he can’t be persuaded by Libra and Keesha. Dan kind of agreed but in an “hmmm, ok Jerry” manner and basically shrugged Jerry off. I don’t know how Jerry couldn’t realize it, but hey I guess he’s old. That night Dan talked directly too America, telling us that we better do what is best for him. It was fun to see someone talking to US and hopefully we didn’t screw Dan over too much.

The night was all about Dan as we saw a video from his family and football team. The team seemed supportive of their coach, although they seemed like they were more Dan’s friends rather then players. His family was split on the America’s Player twist as his sister loved it while his mother hated it. She felt it would hurt his game play but his sister knew he could pull through. After that Julie talked a bit with April. She didn’t mention anything about April and Ollie, you know, but April did say that she feels that her and Ollie’s relationship is true.

When it was time to vote the producers made it pretty obvious. They had Michelle, Jerry and Ollie vote first followed by Libra, Keesha and Renny. Dan was the obvious tie breaker, in reality it was America, and we forced him to evict Jessie. When Jessie walked out of the house, Michelle smacked her hands together and faced in front of everyone. She wasn’t too happy an either was Jessie. Although he didn’t go out in a rage he did leave somewhat angry, not the exit I had hoped for but still pretty good.

During the HoH the houseguests were asked to remember wake up calls that occurred last night. CBS had viewers send in wav files of what they should play to wake up the houseguests. Michelle was the only one to stay up all night and listen to them all. When it came down it is, Libra and Michelle were the final two of the competition. Michelle’s all nighter pulled off as she gained the Head of Household and shifted the power of the house. After such a huge eviction, this should be interesting as Michelle was the one most angry for the leave of Jessie. Oh I can’t wait to see how Michelle, and Jerry, blow up!

Before the show ended Julie dropped a HUGE bomb on us, but not the house. Ten former players of the game will enter the house sometime this weekend to play against those still in the game. In celebration of the 10th season Chicken George, Bunky, Amy, Jun, Jase, Janelle (I’m sure so many are happy about that), Boogie, Jen, Matty and Brian will play in a challenge against the remaining nine. What will the challenge be and what does it mean for the game? Tune in later to find out!
