TV. Food. Pop Culture.
It’s sad that the only way I can seem to do photocaps these days is if I wait for the one time a week when CBS posts pics from the HOH’s digital camera. Alas, that’s the best we can get; so I guess I’ll make the most of it. Actually, there are some amusing trends …

So I go away to the Northwest for five days, and of course all sorts of craziness happens on the Big Brother front. The craziest thing undoubtedly was Julie Chen mentioning me by name on the Internets, but really, that’s just crazy to me, and perhaps not the entire BB viewing population as a whole. …

True insanity. I just woke up and discovered an inordinately large amount of tweets congratulating me. For what? I had no idea.

How do you know it’s summer? Not by the rising temperature, but instead by the sudden influx of racial insensitivity courtesy of dumb Big Brother contestants. And along those lines, we have our first clip of derogatory hate speech, courtesy of Braden who used some choice words to describe Kevin’s latino heritage. The only problem? …

It’s baaaaaaack! And I’m not just talking about the clichéd way I just started this post. I’m talking, of course, about Big Brother, which has returned for what looks to be a strong eleventh season.

Lest you forget, Big Brother 11 premieres tonight at 8 PM on CBS. That means that on the East Coast, there’s t-minus one hour until you surrender your summer to many wonderful, glorious hours in front of the television, watching lunatics scream and fight and battle it out for half million dollars. So very excited… …

Via Jokers Updates This just in! We finally have footage of the eviction ceremony from press day on Big Brother. Sadly, Rosanna’s exit song to the evictee was edited out (rights, I’m sure), but let it be known that it was a beautiful moment (she sang “Fever”). Nevertheless, enjoy this last nugget from press day…
It’s that time again! CBS has just announced the new cast for the upcoming season of Big Brother, which means we get to spend a week pondering who might be our early favorites, who might wind up sucking, and who could possibly win the whole shebang. After the jump, I’ve got a rundown of each …

Ten days ago, an exciting thing happened: I was invited to spend the day in the Big Brother house along with eleven other members of the media. This was a minor dream come true: I got to taste the Big Brother experience without committing to a summer of national exposure (most of which I’m sure …
