During the Big Brother 10 Live eviction the first commercial and preview for Survivor Gabon aired. It let out little information other then stating their would be 18 survivors this season. It also reiterated Gabon being the Earth’s last “Eden”, that temptation is everywhere and that it will be shot in high definition. Below is the commercial so watch away!
Big Brother is not only moving to Thursday nights for its LIVE eviction episodes this week but more will be happening as well. Although the houseguests don’t know it, America’s Player will be reintroduced into the game for a one week stint. The producers have recently issued a press release that reveals that we, the viewers, will get the chance to crown the next America’s Player. Once we vote and the new player is chosen, they will have the choice to play as our player for one week in the hopes of winning $20,000. In the long run this condensed version of America’s Player will be very similar to Big Brother 8 and Eric, it will only last a single week rather then an entire season. We will still control how the player votes and also other random things they must do. Another interesting tidbit from the house is that the Big Brother 10 house was struck by the earthquake that hit California today. How that will play out on the show I’m not sure but it will surely be interesting to see.
So who do you guys want to see be America’s NEW Player? Leave a comment and discuss!
Last time on Big Brother 10 Brian’s two boys Dan and Steven were nominated. On the latest episode we see not only the aftermath of the nominations but the aftermath of the food competition as well. Immediately after the nominations were made Dan asked Jessie to talk up in the HoH bedroom. There they agreed on why Dan went up and both still feel that they should stick together if Dan does stay. On the other end Steven does have supporters even if they are scared to say they are. Angie and Keesha came to his side to let him know that he can still stay in the game and both seemed like they would veto him if they won.
Following the chat between Steven and Angie we finally got to see the birth of the current alliance ruling both the HoH and the veto. While Jessie and Michelle flirted, Memphis came up with a plan to secure Jessie and himself two more players for their group. They both decided that Michelle and Angie should join their alliance, giving them a core of four. Of course this happened awhile ago but CBS is just beginning to let is unravel.
Steven’s trial to stay is an interesting one as he’s playing somewhat of a Brian role in opposite. He’s trying to get people upset for him leaving and tried to find friends that would fall into his “poor me” trap. First up was Renny who he used the Hurricane Katrina bond with. They both talked about what they went through and although it may not have secured a vote with Renny it surely didn’t hurt. Next up was Keesha who flat out said that she didn’t want Steven to go. Thanks to that she told him that if she did win the veto that she would take him off, something she would deny a little later.
When it finally did come time for the Power of Veto choosing the six who were competing were Jessie, Michelle, Dan, Libra, Steven and of course Keesha. Before the challenge began Keesha let is slip to her gal pals that she would probably veto Steven if she won the PoV. Michelle was in the room when that went down and she immediately went to Memphis and Jessie to let them know. This turned the group against Keesha and it almost seemed like if the veto was used Keesha could go up. Although Michelle pushed the issue Libra would get the blame a little later.
For the Power of Veto the six players had to decipher Big Brother phrases spelled out in license plate slang. If they got the phrase right they would gain whatever points it was worth, if they were wrong they would be out of the challenge. During the first phrase given both Dan and Jessie were taken out for wrong answers. Keesha finally scooped up the correct answering, giving her a quick 10 points. For the next phrase Steven buzzed in early and took himself out, taking the two nominees and the HoH out. Michelle then answered correctly, tying it up with Keesha. For the third phrase the three girls weren’t playing for points but rather a slop pass. If they did take the pass they would be out of the competition and no longer able to win the veto. Although Libra and Keesha have been on slop for two weeks now, neither took the slop pass. This put a thought in Libra’s head that Keesha was in deed going to veto Steven if she won and that’s the reason she stayed in the game. For the fourth, and last, phrase both Libra and Keesha answered incorrectly which gave the last person standing, Michelle, the win of the veto.
Following the Power of Veto competition everyone started talking about Keesha wanting to veto Steven. When Libra, Steven and Keesha were in the 70s room together Keesha mentioned to Steven that she felt bad since she took his life away. Libra then went outside to let the others know what was said and Steven wasn’t too happy either. He didn’t want Keesha saying that in front of others and told her that Libra was saying things on the bench of the challenge about Keesha trying to save Steven. Keesha didn’t like what she was hearing so went out to confront Libra who denied saying anything at all. This turned Keesha against Libra who she called a “liar” and “shit starter” and ultimately would create the massive fight that went down between Libra, Renny and Jerry.
While Renny and Jerry were sitting in the sauna room, Keesha began bashing Libra. The two others agreed that Libra had to go and Renny let it slip that Libra wasn’t happy with having the two older people on her team for the food comp. Jerry didn’t like that too much and the next morning he let Libra have it. Although I said the last fight in the house between Keesha and April was bad this one was even worse. Libra went off as well as Jerry and Renny ended up joining the fray a little later. In the end it was one crazy fight over nothing really and made Libra look like the bad guy. In my eyes it was Keesha as she’s the one spreading the rumors about Libra. Guess that’s what happens when the houseguests can’t watch the feeds like we can!
Since he knew he was probably going Steven made a move to save himself by asking Jessie and Michelle to veto either himself or Dan. He wanted them to put Libra up in his place or Dan’s place since he felt that everyone would vote Libra out. I caught this entire conversation on the feeds the other day and have it posted at http://youtube.com/bigbrotherloop. If you want to see the unedited version then check it out, it gets rather interesting since they didn’t show Dan’s side of the conversation on the show at all.
When it was finally time for the Power of Veto ceremony we quickly learned that Michelle wasn’t using the veto. From the feeds we saw that she didn’t trust Steven’s word about people wanting Renny out and didn’t feel she had a reason to put her up in any way, shape or form. I’m not sure exactly how the vote will go tomorrow but I’m excited to see who wins the HoH. A shake up in the power would be nice and if the challenge goes the right way we could be in for another week of craziness!

Survivor Micronesia may be over but we still have one last glimpse into one amazing season thanks to Ponderosa! Four new videos have been posted showing all those who made the merge at Ponderosa and how they took the end game. In the first video Natalie enters Ponderosa and realizes just how skinny she is along with other crazy thoughts. In the second the jury learns that one more will be joining them and finally realize the game is almost over. The third video showcases Cirie’s entrance as the last jury member as she breaks down since she came so close once again. The last video shows all the jury plus the final two partying their last few days in Micronesia.
We are being treated to Survivor Ponderosa this season and it is proving to be very entertaining and a welcome gift since Survivor Live is no longer showing. This time we have three new clips. The first shows James and Erik entering Ponderosa and how the jury members react to Erik’s stupid move. In the second clip we see how Erik and James react to their second day in Ponderosa. They let us know what they think of going to tribal council and their thoughts on real food! In the last clip “Professor Ozzy” teaches us the ways of the coconuts. He starts by removing them from the trees then showing the proper way to open and eat a coconut.
