Damn, that sounded like a good episode! Too bad I missed it.

From what I've read here, it looks like Will is sticking to the reverse-psychology strategy he used in season two, except this time he's actually kicked it up a few notches. Or maybe he's being genuine? Either way, he's the best Big Brother player eva!

What you guys said about Jase exploding sounds interesting (I'm guessing he didn't take too kindly to getting nominated). What exactly happened?

Well, firstly, the BB6 alliance were in the HOH room talking around after the POV competition about who they should nominate now that George has won POV. Janelle (who is still really smart) kept emphasizing how he must put Jase up, he's a huge threat, and he will come back to bite them in the ass. Both Howie and Kaysar agreed with her, and said that Jase should be put up. James was sort of against it, because he thought it might be going against his word (as earlier, Jase and him had a heart to heart talking about how they both respect the game, and Jase has no problem playing as long as he isn't backdoored. Jase see's that as unfair, because he doesn't get a chance to save himself. Apparently Jase doesn't remember the day when there was no POV, period.)

Anyhow, James must have swung and agreed with the other 3, because later that day Kaysar goes up to Jase telling him how they have to put him up. He basically said: "We don't want Will out. We want to put Boogie up, but if we put Boogie up, Will will be evicted. So you have to go up." Jase stuttered a bit, walked away, walked outside and then his little episode begain. He started throwing things everywhere, and then he sat down (everyone was sitting outside on the patio). Everyone was quiet and just staring at Jase for a bit.

Then Jase calls out James, says he lost his integrity, blah blah blah. James says that what he wants to do isn't backdooring, Jase has got it wrong. Jase is still pissed, explains how he threw the POV today, and he wants a chance to save himself, etc. The guy is basically yelling at this point (James keeps it cool, says very little). Jase gets desperate and starts bringing everyone into it (calls out Danielle, and then calls out Marcellus). Danielle keeps it quiet, but Marcellus is upset Jase brought him into, and then Marcellus and Jase have a loud, yelling bitch fight. Howie says something inbetween I think, but it's mostly just Marcellus and Jase. Everyone else is smirking (the two prominent one's being Will and James - both almost grinning). Marcellus actually defends himself pretty well, describes Jase's outburst as silly, etc. And that's pretty much that.

PEACE, Mike.

Wow...wonder what will happen on Thursday.

And James is right, if he was to backdoor Jase, he would have had the intent to do so BEFORE the POV competition. I'm guessing Jase probably knows that (considering the other side really didn't want George to win), but I guess he needs to vent his frustrations.

Or who knows? The houseguests during his season deliberately went out of their way to make sure Jase would feel betrayed and taken by surprise by his backdoored eviction, so maybe he's paranoid this group is pulling the same shit.

You forgot to add Marcellas' memorable last quote (My fav quote of the episode ):

"No wonder Big Brother 5 hated you."

Oh, yes, I knew I was forgetting a spark ending that had happened. Yes, Marcellus also ended it with the best quote ever, hehe. He really got Jase there.

PEACE, Mike.

I think Jase has now joined Jerri from Survivor as "all-star reality contestants who almost improve their previous terrible image, only to fall flat on their faces at the very end".

George sure knows how to play the sympathy card, that speech of his really turned me off.Since George can't play veto next week I hope he's put on the block and gets kicked right out of the game. I'll also enjoy watching him eat slop for as long as he's on the show. I hate that George is still in the game while either Will or Jase are going home.

Best line of the show, "Jase shot himself in one foot and Boogie and Will shot him in the other.

Awesome episode. James must have felt relieved once Marcellas started up with Jase. Good stuff. I love how everything is out in the open this season, everyone pretty much knows the score.

And Will...............oh god Will, how you slay me . I don't see any reason why the house would vote Will out in this situation, since the wrath of Jase is something to be feared. Best to get him out now.

I want my cool kids club card

Rankings in order of favorites, not of gameplay or what-have-you:

1. Howie - He's always been a favorite, and it's not changing now. I hated him at the start of BB6, but once I figured out his shtick, I was alright with him. The guy has a good heart, and keeps a close eye on his friends. He says plenty of dumb things, and sometimes offensive things. But that's Howie. While his teammates are cozying up to the oppostion, making deals, Howie stays true to his own alliance.

2. Will - My Will love came later in the season. After not remembering much of BB2, I didn't know what to expect with Will. After a blah first few weeks, I'm really liking the guy. His TV stuff is great, but he's even more entertaining and more interesting uncut and uncensored on the live feeds (except when BB decides to cut to flames). He wants out of the game before sequester, and I'm convinced that's all a part of his game to make it to the end.

3. Janelle - The buxom blonde! Love her or hate her! She has everyone jealous of her, and everyone gunning for her. And she plays them all just enough.

4. Chicken George - I'll say it once more: this game is too cutthroat for a guy like Chicken George. I liked his antics in Season 1, trying to fit in with a young group (as opposed to most older reality contestants that shoot themselves in the foot by calling down the younger contestants). He's not a bad guy. He's just not cut out for Big Brother.

5. Kaysar - He was always the third wheel in the BB6 alliance for me. He's not as likeable as Howie or Janelle, or as entertaining, but somehow he's the most popular. This season, he seems to be an invisible force in the house. Even when he was HOH, he didn't seem to be the lead on the show. I would love nothing more than to see the Sovs be in the final four, but he needs to step it up soon.

6. Danielle - She's also damn near invisible, on TV and live feeds. When she is visible and speaking, she's usually interesting and fun to listen to. But, until she breaks out of her mute stage, I'm not ranking her any higher.

7. James - My least favorite of the BB6 alliance, because we all know how easily he will turn on his own group. Once the dust settles, and everyone realizes James is trying to hold everyone's hand, he's going to be public enemy #1.

8. Jase - His first week was cool, but once he started playing the more low-key role that James is playing, I lost interest. He's not the Jase of Season 5, which is both good and bad. He claims to have gained maturity, but I don't buy that for a second. If he stays this week, I think he's going to slowly deteriorate, before Jase S.5 comes back.

9. Diane - A favorite in Season 5, she's the shadow of the season. She's here and there, and yet she's never quite anywhere. Even when nominated, she didn't give much to enjoy. She has her moments of looking hot and looking creepy. And, the Mrs. Smith thing is very much a lame alliance name.

10. Marcellas - I thought we were going to get the mastermind that studied the Big Brother seasons while co-hosting House Calls. Instead, he's using this as a summer of rest! I've rarely seen Marcellas standing upright, and I've seen him talking to anyone besides BB6 even less. I'm almost convinced that if the opposition wins HOH this week, they're targetting George and Marcellas.

11. Erika - Yawn. My prediction to win BB: All-Stars still looks like a frontrunner, but she's starting to get noticed. If by some miracle BB6 stays together to the halfway point of the game, Erika will likely worm her way in with Kaysar, which might set up a Rob/Amber-type alliance. God, I hope not.

12. Mike Boogie - What a waste of TV. Why Will likes the guy is beyond me. Hell, why everyone likes the guy is beyond me. He'll speak your praises to your face, and with your back turned, he'll slit your throat. If by some miracle Will stays this week, I'm begging to see Mike leave next week, so we can see Will without the dead weight.

Will told Mike in the storage room that, now he's not on anyone's radar, he doesn't actually want to leave.

What a big surprise! The Evil Doctor was playing everyone! Quick, call the presses.

The thing is, before, he actually DID want to leave. But now everyone has made it clear that they're NOT after Will, but Boogie and Jase before him. And Marcellas and Janelle even said they want to keep him there because they know that they can beat him in final two. Will has put himself in a rather good position.


The thing that pissed me off about yesterdays show is that they left out the whole part with S6 fighting over whether or not to put up Marcellas or Erika. Boogie and Jase worked them over and for almost TWO HOURS they sat in the HoH room SCREAMING at each other because James wanted to put up Marcellas and Janelle and Kaysar wanted to put up Erika. It was HOWIE that convinced them to stick to the original plan, not Janelle. The fact that they left that whole part out annoyed me, especially since the backyard freak out by Jase was in relation to that b/c right before the PoV ceremony, Kaysar told Jase and Boogie they couldn't go through with their plan and then Kaysar went to Jase separately like was shown on the show. I did love, however, as Jase is flipping the hell out, Wil l and Boogie are sitting there with smirks on their face. They pretty much shoved Jase infront of them as a shield and have made S6 take him out while still leaving Chilltown in tact.

I feel like one of the floaters uninvolved in most of the house drama (i.e. Danielle, Erika, Diane) is going to win at the end. Although apparently Danielle's motormouth has been getting her into trouble lately, though, so we'll see.

Wonder where we've seen that before?

Yeah, I knew Will would eventually "change his mind" or something like that. His speech was hilarious, but a little too repetitive. To me, it seemed clear he was trying reverse psychology, trying to get people to think he isn't a threat anymore. He's so smart. Go Will!

@Greasedlightning: Yeah, after you posted about the live feeds on their fight over Marcellus and Erika, I was hoping to be able to enjoy it on TV. But they cut it all out (the fighting part at least). They always cut out a lot to suit themselves, but I think also to fit in a show too. I sometimes wish episodes were longer, maybe an hour and a half instead of 1 hour.

I really should just pay for the feeds, but I always convince myself it's not worth it to waste the money when the feeds are apparently crappy and cut out a lot and stuff. Meh. Oh well.

PEACE, Mike.

MikeQ - They COULD have fit it in, though, but they like to put a lot of bullshit on the show. If they didn't have that little segment on Marcellas being in love with Kaysar, it could have fit in.

Hehe, yeah, that's true.

[sarcasm] But the audience just can't miss out on Marcellus' new crush! It's news-worthy! [/sarcasm]

PEACE, Mike.

I wish Mike was serious more often. His obnoxious attitude that he thinks makes entertaining television is about as annoying as it gets. During that hour-long Chilltown meeting with James and Kaysar, Mike was at his most interesting being the strategist, even if he was likely lying his ass off.

Mike Boogie should be shot for continuing to call he and Will "Chilltown." Anyone over the age of 30 who uses a word like that to describe his group of friends should not be taken seriously as a person. I'm amazed I ended up loving Evil Dr. Will so much in season 2, considering how much I hated his alliance of Boogie and Toothbrush Shannon.

Ugh, Toothbrush Shannon was the worst! It never ceased to be high school with her around.

And I'm not sure if you missed it, but during the show's premiere, Mike "Boogie" was in the diary room bashing "Chicken" George because he claims people who are that old and have weird nicknames "don't deserve to be taken seriously".

There are ALOT of BB video now available to watch thanks to Youtube. BB fans w/ feeds are quite comprehensive with what goes on in the house, and Youtube definitely seems to be making the show more enjoyable, as it takes out all the long feed breaks that subscribers have.

FIRSTLY, A QUESTION:
- What did Jase mean by saying he will be coming back in a few weeks, or whatever? He said he looks forward to spending a few weeks at the beach and then coming back (I think he said that). Am I misunderstanding something, or did I miss some twist here? How exactly is Jase "coming back"? Thanks to any who can help me.

On the regular chat:

Hah. BB6 alliance is DOMINATING.

I'm so happy Janelle won, if any member from the BB6 alliance had to win. James went weird and decided to target Chicken George. Kaysar had a confusing strategy that made him target Nakomis and Diane. And Howie is generally fairly stupid, so I wouldn't really trust him at all. People in the house can easily manipulate Howie. Janelle, as far as I'm concerned, is the smart one of the group; their rock.

Would have been nice to have seen Danielle win. But at least she is safe, I think, because James really likes Danielle.

Did anyone else find it really cool when Marcellus got the first question right, and eliminated Boogie right off the back. That was sweeeet. Right then and there, I didn't care who won after that. I just didn't want Boogie to win. Seriously.

And Will is still awesome, but his "I want to be nominated" speel is getting old very fast. He needs new material.

PEACE, Mike.

I'm assuming Jase meant he'd be back for the finale i.e. the "you haven't seen the last of me, America!" dear to the heart of every fame whore in this country.

I think they might have an America's choice or something in the wings (or the producers hinted at it when pitching the concept to the players). Didn't Alison come back during her season or am I remembering it wrong. I doubt Jase would win a popularity vote if he had to compete with Will or Kaysar. Diane or George are about the only contestants he would have a good shot against.

I don't even care if this is boring to everyone else. I love BB6 dominating, ESPECIALLY in a week where Janelle was trashed by Mike on Monday night. I hope she is responsible for CRUSHING MIKE'S DREAM. What a dumb shit he is. No matter how much he claims he doesn't care about winning, he wants to win. No doubt about it.

I think Jase was probably making a joke about a twist where someone comes back. On one of the feed videos I watched, he said "I wish there was some twist where someone was coming back", so maybe that's where that came from.

And, as far as I can tell, this will be the first week ever where Janelle will be HOH for a FULL week, without someone else sharing it (she either had short reigns or Jase was in power with her). I might be wrong.
