A new Big Brother 10 commercial recently aired claiming that 13 house guests will be moving into the house. News also broke that the first six evictions of the game will have a live audience in studio. These two simple pieces of news make me wonder a few things that I’ll mention below.
- Will Big Brother 10 feature the twin twist or something similar again? They love to pull similar twists on numbered seasons. Someone has returned to the game in seasons 3, 6 and 9; all divisible by 3. With the twins happening in season 5 they could be doing a similar twist for 10. Also Big Brother 10 started with 13 house guests and the new commercial is claiming season 10 will as well.
- This one isn’t that earth shattering but with the commercial airing that 13 house guests will move in could the players already be sequestered? The game isn’t set to air until July 13th, over a month away. It’s possible they could just be releasing the number as it has no outcome to the twist but it always seems the players are sequestered before ANYTHING is said.
- With six evictions having a live audience could this mean that the jury will only have five people? It would make sense that the jury members don’t have a live audience as they don’t want to “corrupt” them but only five people on the jury just doesn’t make sense. It’s something to think about but also makes me think that more then 13 people will be playing the game somehow.
Here is the BB10 Commercial Saying 13 House guests:
After several weeks, several new guests and several twists and turns, Paradise Hotel 2 finally comes to a close. Tonight the final two couples of TD/Ryan and Stephanie/Zack faced off against the seven judges of Paradise to crown the winner. It all started off with a lengthy recap showing last weeks drama and how all four of those left in the finales were targeted and argued with someone. The next morning Stephanie and TD realized their actions were stupid and once again became friends. It seems this happened throughout the whole season once the hangover wore off.
The seven judges then convened to question the two couples and to see how they should vote. Mike and Krista both targeted TD as they blamed her for their demise the night before. Both got an answer they didn’t expect and that was TD apologizing and basically saying she didn’t push Ryan to vote them out but he agreed with her that was the move to make. James’ comment got a few jaws to drop as he asked Steph if she was “sleeping her way to the top” since she “crushed” with both finalists: Ryan and Zack. The said she didn’t but it just seemed to end up that way. Myrna’s question once again brought up Zack’s mention of why he would be mean to her. He told her it was done to make sure people didn’t believe the two were together. He said they all hated her so he had to hate her to “fit it”, she didn’t like that too much.
The four were then given the chance to say one final statement to all voters. Zack was first and let them all know that he was loyal to everyone he gave his word to and everyone that gave their word was loyal to him. Stephanie was up first and gave a really good reason why people should vote for her and Zack. She let each of them know what she will take back with her and how they changed her since she entered the hotel. TD was next and gave a very tear filled speech as to why she played the game the way she did. She was right as she shouldn’t feel guilty that she is in the finals and that she shouldn’t feel guilty for speaking her mind and I think some of the judges were swayed by this. Ryan was last to go and actually had something to say. He only spoke to Krista and Mike, the two he hurt the most, and let them know he is sorry. He wasn’t asking for their vote but only asking them to forgive him.
That night it was then time to crown the winner and that the judges did. Each were asked to pick the couple they want to see win the grand prize and in a close vote of 4 - 3, Zack and Stephanie were crowned the winners of Paradise Hotel 2. Like the previous season the win came with a twist as TD and Ryan were given the power to crown only one winner between Stephanie and Zack. That winner would receive an envelope containing the prize. Although it seemed they would pick Stephanie, both decided to give Zack the title of winner of Paradise Hotel. He was then shocked with another twist that allowed him to split the money between himself and two others in any amount he chose. He was given $200,000 to either keep or he could split it between one or two other people from the judges and the other final players.
After some deliberation Zack made his chose and decided to split his prize money between both TD and Stephanie. He gave TD $20,000 and then split the remaining between himself and Stephanie evenly. This gave both Stephanie and Zack $90,000 each and also gave them the share in the win. That concludes Paradise Hotel 2 and the drama that came along with it. I was kind of surprised to see Zack win after coming back into the game for a third time and then so generously splitting his money. It was a great run for the show and hopefully it will be back for a third season. If you aren’t done with Paradise Hotel 2 yet you can catch the reunion on Fox Reality. Once I see it I’ll be sure to rehash all that went down!
Now that the shows over and Zack won the game what do you all think? Leave a comment and discuss if Zack deserved to win and if his split was right.
With the game of Big Brother 9 down to its final two it was time to crown the winner of the $500,000. It has been the series first winter series and broke new ground with twists galore. By starting with pairs for the first time ever to three players returning the game was different then ever before. Some loved it while others hated it but you must admit it was nice having a double, and now triple, dose of Big Brother in only a year.
The crowning of the winner had to start somewhere and that was with Sheila joining the jury house. Everyone seemed to think it would be her and were even talking about her as she walked through the doors. She seemed very upset with Adam at the time as she realized he threw the last challenge to make sure Ryan won and took him to the end. The rest of the jury seemed somewhat split as at times they favored Ryan and other times they favored Adam. Natalie, James and Chelsia seemed to take the idea that Adam was the better player, Joshuah, Sharon and Sheila seemed to fight for Ryan to win. Matty was the only one not going either way with who he wanted to win since he was friends with both.
It was then time for the questioning to begin and it once again seemed split. Ryan took the first heat as he told everyone that he would give Jen some money if he won. Everyone didn’t like that comment too much considering Adam said he would surely give $100,000 to open an after school program for kids. A followup question to that was from Chelsia who asked Ryan if he still loves Jen. He told her yes and the reasons why but Chelsia didn’t seemed to like that answer. I knew his relationship with Jen would hurt Ryan in the finals but some seem to be basing their vote simply on that. Adam then started to take some heat, especially from Sheila and Joshuah. Sheila tore into Adam as she felt he didn’t give her credit for him getting to the finals. She also felt Adam lied to her in the house throughout the game. I still don’t know if Sheila was just continuing her “act fighting” with Adam or if this was truly how she felt. Joshuah, on the other hand, tore into Adam as being not being a player. He didn’t agree with Adam throwing the competitions and also disliked the way Adam was “screaming at the screen”. In the end it still seemed unclear as to who would win and I’m still blown away by the vote.
With the votes then locked in Julie then told the jury members that one of them would be winning $25,000 thanks to a vote by America. They also had a few segments of talking with both jury and non-jury along with a few video clips. The first was a small discussion with Natalie and Matt and how they felt about each other. Julie told Natalie she may be in for some surprises when watching the show. This led to Matty apologizing to Natalie for anything she may hear before she even hears them. Next up was the feud between Jen and Allison which still seems to hold. Jen let loose and let everyone know she disliked Allison’s words about her after she was evicted and her thoughts that she was better for Ryan then herself. Allison defended herself by saying she had no feelings for Ryan and doesn’t feel the same for Jen now that she did in the house. The next few clips showed Ryan that Adam did in fact tell Natalie how he voted and also showed Joshuah’s fake tears that convinced Adam. I’m not sure why they squeezed these two clips in as talking to the other jury or non-jury members would have been more exciting.
After that small boredom it was time to crown the winner. Matt’s vote was up first which was for Adam along with Natalie’s who was also for Adam. With two votes for Adam it was Joshuah up next. He voted vote Ryan making it 2-1. Sharon was up next and surprisingly voted opposite of Joshuah which was for Adam making it 3-1. Sheila’s vote was next and it was like fate that her key gave Adam the win. With four votes there was no way Ryan could catch up and Adam leapt into the air, knowing he won the game and half a million dollars. After some time the two finally walked out of the house and all the houseguests waiting outside rushed the door. It was a great feeling to see them finally excited for someone to win the game as it came to a close.
But before we could leave Big Brother world until the summer it was time to give away America’s Favorite Jury money. It was pretty obvious who would get it as people somehow fell in love with James and he was in fact the winner. Sheila came in second which should give her some joy as I feel she did deserve the money as much or not more then James. In my final post for BB9 I’d like to say it was a great season to cover as there was continuous drama and random things that happened this season that will probably never happen again. Although it may not have been the best it did bring some enjoyment to our winter and hopefully even more this summer as BB10 returns on July 13th! Make sure to check back often for any after the show BB9 updates and BB10 news as it comes in!
Tonight the twists that made the first season of Paradise Hotel so insane returned. Not only did the casino reward return but the double elimination returned as well. Since we are down to the final hotel guests they have to start leaving more often and that means more twists to come. Tonight was no different as we started off by taking a look at the two sides.
It seems like right now the new people alliance is somewhat falling apart. With Zack now in the game it seems like he wants to sway Chris to his side and with him both Stephanie and TD. Although this is the case it seems that Chris wants Aaron to stay in the loop as well even though Zack does not want Chris in his “clique”. It’s interesting to see how Zack kind of ripped the newbies alliances part by simply telling Chris he wants to work with him. It’s almost like Chris wanted to drop Aaron for awhile now and Zack just gave him that chance.
Myrna was another one who was kind of on the outs of both alliances. She’s liked by all the guys but none of them really want her in the game. Zack believes she’ll just hurt the new guys while the OG’s just want her out for getting Tanya out last round. Myrna wasn’t shown too much this episode other then explaining flashing back to her fights with both Zack and Aaron.
On the originals side it was more of last weeks James and Lauren drama. Nobody from the originals caused any drama this week other then Lauren who everyone now believes is playing all the guys. James and Zack mentioned it at different times how Lauren is trying to get all the guys to like her in order to be safe on all accounts. Little did she know the one guy who she didn’t try to as Amanda would say “cozy up to” would be the one who send her out of Paradise.
It was then time for another envelope to appear and it was to announce the return of the Paradise Hotel Casino. If I remember correctly the casino caused tons of drama last season so I was excited that they brought it back. A game of poker with a “special prize” at the end was played with James taking a win over Zack. Amanda then appeared to let everyone know that she would announce what his prize was at the next elimination, which just happened to be right then and there.
Everyone was then sent down to the pool where the next elimination was to occur. The guys outnumbered the girls this week so that meant one of them would be going home. With his win of the poker tournament, James was told he was safe and was also given first pick. He quickly went to TD and every one’s mouths dropped as they knew this would screw over the newbie alliance. They had it all planned out who would go to who, but with James having immunity and him going to TD everything was very screwed up.
Zack was then up and if he was smart he would have went to either Lauren or Krista since this would have surely sent one of the OGs home. Instead he went to Stephanie, ensuring that either Chris or Aaron would leave. Ryan was up next and went to Lauren as normal while Chris went to Myrna. Mike was next up and went to the only remaining original girl who was open and that was Krista. Aaron was last and was obviously upset. He knew that Chris had made a deal with Zack then and it hit him hard. He walked over to Myrna and probably knew she would send him home.
Amanda then shocked us with another twist to the game as James was allowed to choose who would go home between Aaron and Chris. Usually Myrna would have done this as she was the one with the two guys who chose her. She was going to keep Chris in the game but James had other plans. He quickly told Chris that his time in paradise was over, saving Aaron who thought he was a goner. Chris was then told that he wasn’t leaving empty handed and was allowed to choose a girl to also take out of the running for the grand prize. It was between Myrna, Lauren and Krista. He would have never chose Myrna as she was going to keep him in the game and stuck to his guns to take Lauren out. With this sudden move and the several twists, both sides are down by one. Next week it seems that more twists await as Raheim, the seasons troublemaker, returns for some reason. Amanda did say that Zack would be the last “new” person entering paradise so technically Raheim could return as he is in fact not new to the season. Who knows what “twists” will come from next week but I’m sure it will be just as dramatic as tonight was.
Have you every wanted to play the game of your favorite reality show? Well now you can! For several years now people have been playing Survivor, Big Brother, The Mole and several other reality shows online! The games are the same, the twists are there and the only difference is your talking through instant messenger rather then on an island or in a house. Most games add in unique twists to make things even more interesting and each game brings something different. New games are always looking for players so if love reality TV then experience it first hand by heading to ORGReloaded.com.
On the latest Paradise Hotel 2 not one but two guys were sent home. Since two new guys entered the game on the last episode, a double elimination had to occur to balance the game back out as the twists the show is known for begin to pick up. The first elimination came after a very heated Pandora’s Box where Stephanie and Raheim battled it out as Raheim denied that he tried to control Stephanie when they were roommates. She said he told her to not talk to the new guys, which he did say, but he denied it when it was brought up to everyone. TD was then asked to read a ‘Hotel Question’ which asked the girls which guy they would like to see leave the hotel. The show then became survivor-like and the 5 girls cast a vote on who they wanted to leave the game ‘forever’. The most votes went to Johnny, the first new guy to enter Paradise. Although the votes were not revealed, we do know that Tanya voted for him to leave and regretted it afterwards. Johnny left without much fanfare, other then a flip, and made the unevenness of the guy to girl ration ready for the next roommate selection.
Before we could kick another guy out of Paradise drama had to go down of course! With two new guys coming into the game it created a setup for a new alliance to emerge. TD has joined Stephanie and the new guys Aaron and Chris to create a new split in the house. They all agreed that Raheim should go and it seems that Chris is running the show there. Before the elimination would occur though the original guys worried that the game would be changed up. Krista, who is in neither side, realized the split in the house and worried that she would be on the outs next week. It was interesting to see how she picked up immediately on the change of the players and it will be interesting to see which side she selects next week.
At the roommate selection it was time to send another guy home. The two new guys stuck to their alliance and chose TD and Stephanie while James went to new love Lauren and Mike went back ‘finger painting’ buddy Tanya. Krista was stuck with the hard decision of sending someone home and had to decide between Ryan and Raheim. Although she has been friends with Raheim for awhile and from what I can remember never really even talked to Ryan, she picked Ryan as her roommate and sent her friend Raheim home. He left kind of quiet, which I was surprised, and hopefully didn’t take all the drama out with him. Next week a new girl enters Paradise and apparently all the guys are falling for her. A new twist is brought in as well as it seems the new girl has the ‘ultimate power’ over the other girls. That probably means she sends one of them home single handedly and gives the producers another reason to create more drama and change the game how they wish.
