As anyone who follows the Big Brother feeds knows, Tuesday’s episode was the calm before the storm. Thanks to Dan, who bizarrely tried to create chaos with his Veto Roulette (or whatever he called it), the entire house is now poised for a meltdown. Whether it works in Dan’s favor may be another issue. I actually don’t know how it’ll play out. All I know is that after the ceremony, nearly everyone flipped out for hours. We only saw a taste of it at the end of Tuesday’s show, but I’m sure we’ll see plenty more tonight (crossing fingers).
And how about that Veto Roulette. It seemed kind of dumb to me, but damn, I enjoyed it. I get the strategy of divide and conquer, but this seemed a bit too blatant, even for Dan. Still, everyone seemed perfectly willing to go along with the game — which wouldn’t have been so strange given his ultimatum (say someone’s name or you’ll be on the block). However, what WAS strange was that when Dan approached everyone beforehand and told them to say a name, they all seemed to agree without any hesitation. The only person to question the whole scheme was Renny, who immediately sniffed out Dan’s strategy. However, despite figuring it all out, she still easily fell right into Dan’s trap the moment he informed her that Ollie would be saying her name. WELL! Then she would say Ollie’s! What was impressive was the way Dan got all these people so angry at each other for saying each other’s names when they all seemed to know they were all acting as puppets. It was the epitome of manufactured drama, and they all fell for it hook, line, and sinker.
I will say that the way Dan put Michelle up on the block was fairly obnoxious. He was rather mean and assholish about it, rather than sympathetic. After all, his whole plan was to not get blood on his hands, and the best way to do that would be to play up the fact that he was cornered by the situation. By nominating her in such a harsh way, it’s no surprise that he elicited such a reaction from her. That’ll probably work to her own demise, but it could come back to bite Dan. In the meantime, we were left with Ollie, who takes the crown of this season’s biggest rube. He knew it too — which is why he knocked over that light (among other things). Again, probably not the best strategy to explode like that, but everything could change with Big Brother Fast Forward tonight. So very excited.
As for the rest of the episode, there wasn’t much else. Jerry won a sweet phone call from home, and bless his wife’s heart, she seems great, but listening to the two of them speaking, I couldn’t help but laugh. It was like two pigeons cooing. I was glad that America gave him the call, even though he can be absolutely ridiculous at times. I suppose that’s it. On to the photocap!

Sadly, CBS didn’t post any pictures from after the veto comp; so no caps from the Veto Ceremony. What did you think about the episode? Was Dan’s strategy smart?

  1. “I just want to make sure our deal is still on. It is? Great. Now excuse me. I have to go save a Nigerian king in exile and redeem my free trip to the Caribbean.”
    SOOO true! I often wonder why people trust another person in the house when they “strike a deal”. I mean, they are on a reality show playing for money!
    I can’t wait for tonight!!

  2. I loved this episode. These people act like they’ve never seen this show before. Idiots. I noticed how Jerry and his wife sounded alike, and pointed it out to my husband. We sat and laughed. I know it was mean, but he’s a real fucker so I didn’t care. (Jerry, not my husband!)

  3. I like Dan, but he thinks he’s the new Will and he’s not. It will come back to bite him in the ass in the end b/c even if he does get to the final two, so far he’s pissed off evryone on the jury house. I want Michelle to call him out as a CBS plant on the live show tonight though. Maybe even mention the conspiracy angel?

  4. Wow zb, you got your wish.
    Ollie was so pissed… how funny was that? I just know BB didn’t give him amy POV thingies in his hay pile. But I heard he had a trip to the jury house buried in there!
    lol, I crack myself up.

  5. yes Erica- I DID get my wish! With the addition of Julie telling Michelle that her conspiracy angle was all in her mind. PRICELESS!
