Post Big Brother 13
Everyone's favorite sleazefest that you just can't seem to stop watching no matter how hard you try (this is older than Jersey Shore/Real Housewives/etc. so it has them beat), Big Brother, returns for a 13th (!) season next week. It will air on CBS, as usual, three times per week: Sunday 8 PM ET (nominations), Wednesday 8 PM ET (POV), Thursday 9 PM ET (live eviction/HOH).

This season's "twist" is that only 8 houseguests have been revealed so far, and the rest of them (not specified, I'm guessing 4 others) will be composed of sets of "dynamic duos" from previous BB history. Anyway, the cast is more diverse than usual and let's hope it's a better season than BB12, which was incredibly dull other than the snarky Britney.

All the info here: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/big_brother/

Houseguests:
Image Adam (39) Evicted on September 14 (Jury)
Image Brendon (31) Evicted on August 18 (Jury)
Image Cassi (26) Evicted on July 21
Image Daniele (24) Evicted on August 25 (Jury)
Image Dick (48) Left House on July 7
Image Dominic (25) Evicted on July 28
Image Jeff (33) Evicted on August 25 (Jury)
Image Jordan (24) Evicted on September 8 (Jury)
Image Kalia (30) Evicted on September 7 (Jury)
Image Keith (32) Evicted on July 14
Image Lawon (39) Evicted on August 11
Image Porsche (23) Runner-Up, September 14 (received 3/7 jury votes)
Image Rachel (26) Winner, September 14 (received 4/7 jury votes)
Image Shelly (41) Evicted on September 1 (Jury)

lol I guess I should root for Dominic because he's half-Filipino.

Also... please don't let Jessie/Natalie come back. But Alison Grodner has such a hard-on for Jessie, argh. I'm okay with Dick/Danielle (I'm pretty sure the houseguests should know by now how to deal with them) and Brendon/Rachel.

There's speculation there'll be 3 duos coming back since there are apparently 14 spots on the memory wall.

I'm guessing:
Jeff/Jordan
Brendon/Rachel (lol these two are so pathetic but at least they're not totally hateful like...)
Dick/Dani (ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)

Post Re: Big Brother 13
Alison Grodner's perpetual hard-on for strong males is sort of sad. Why else are Jessie, Brendon or even Hayden under consideration? Hard to believe this will be the fourth straight year to feature Jessie in some role, even if it's (pray!) only on the premiere.

I kind of want to see Dick and Daniele again. They're probably not even talking anymore, which would be fun all over again. Moreso than Will, Evel Dick might last a while just because people will know he'll be a big target and take heat off them.

Jeff and Jordan would be sort of fun.

Is Will really going to do this again? Really? Again? Great for us, but why would he do it?

Oh god. I just voted on CBS.com (Dick and Dani!... sorry Libs). But there's no way in hell that we have any say at all in who returns, you know. First, the wording: "who do you think will return?" not "should return". Meaning that the 1% Jessie and Natalie has is irrelevant if Alison Grodner has her final say. Plus, they show percentages. No way they would risk spoiling it.

Congrats for splurging on the newbies, BB! Three black contestants, one half-Filipino, one bald goatee dude, a girl named after a car and a super-old woman! Like, ancient old in the Reality TV universe. They went all out.

Post Re: Big Brother 13
Totally called all the returning duos. I will excuse the horror show of Dick/Dani (why does she look like someone is holding her at gunpoint to be there????) by the fact that Jeff/Jordan are still adorable and Brendon/Rachel will bring more of her ridiculous drama to the fold. A part of me actually hopes Dick gives Rachel the Jen treatment because it'll just make both of them look even more like fools.

Also, thank god in heaven that Jessie/Natalie didn't come back, but teasing me with the prospect of Dan/Memphis was unfair! Dan is still my favorite winner of this show, right above Evil Dr. Will and Jordan.

Oh, Big Brother. You and your sleaze. I have missed you.

Cassi (and her freakish resemblance to Olivia Wilde), Shelly and Dominic all seem really cool. Keith seems like a douche.

Hahahaha here is the article I read:


Spoiler: show
http://blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethebox/2011/07/big-brother-13-evel-dick-is-gone-from-the-game.html

Quote:
After "Big Brother 13's" After Dark" ended Thursday night (July 7), the feeds dropped off for several hours. When they came back up, we found out that production called Daniele to the Diary Room and told her Evel Dick has left the game. Daniele is still in the game and since she has lost her partner, she has the first Golden Key.

All production told Daniele as to the reason for Dick's departure is that it is not related to their immediate family. But other than that, no one has any idea why Dick is gone.

Around 5:30 p.m. PT yesterday, he was in the backyard in his swimsuit, then he got called into the house and he hasn't been seen since. He did change out of his swimsuit before he left, because it was still in the house, but that's all the houseguests could figure out

That is amazing news and I hope it's not some stunt. I'd also be vaguely curious to see Spawn play this thing without her loathsome dad for once.

In other news, Rachel nominated Stupid Name Porsche/Keith.

I don't hate Daniele like you, but I too am curious to see her play the game without Dick.

I think she could be more tolerable without him, especially if she cuts down on the whiny "woe is me" stuff she never shut up about 4 years ago. Hopefully she's matured a little bit since then. Although she looks vaguely like a corpse now, that hair color does her no favors.

I didn't see all of the premiere yet. Is it mentioned why Brendon and Rachel are still together after he showed his Anthony Weiner to a bunch of girls on the internet? Is she that desperate for a boyfriend?

Full thoughts forthcoming, but I continue to hate their intros to the newbies.

"I bring my bible and I'm religious."
"I HATE RELIGION AND I HATE THE BIBLE!"
"How will these two EVER co-exist!?!?"

I would be on any show. Because I am awesome.

Oh, and I'm picking Cassi as my winner.

Post Re: Big Brother 13
Speculative talk in spoilers... no real spoilers, but in case someone is completely avoiding spoilers, I'll tag it.

Spoiler: show
You know, Daniele has a great shot right now if she lays low. She's safe until week 4 (with the golden key), she's not tied down by a partner (least of all Dick), and she's most likely to be able to mingle with the newbies if they decide to get rid of Jorff and Brenchel, as well as being most likely to mingle with the oldies if they get an upper hand over the newbies. If she doesn't piss anyone off, it's her game to lose... provided she can pull off some of her BB8-style wins towards the end.

All indications are that she is not nearly as much of a sullen brat as she was years ago. So maybe she'll even be more tolerable to watch.

I sure hope so. But she would be smart to lay low on challenges for now. If she was to win HOH soon, she would seriously jeopardize her place in the house by picking sides.

Also, the Evel Dick thing won't be mentioned until Wednesday. It all happened after nominations, which is what tonight's show is. So... that kind of sucks. That's what I hate about BB: the spoilers. They're unavoidable and it takes forever to catch up to them on the episodes.

My unofficial newbie/celeb comparisons:

Cassi: Miranda Kerr/Olivia Wilde
Shelley: Hoda from The Today Show
Dominic: Bruno Mars
Keith: Dule Hill
Kalia: Jordin Sparks
Porsche: January Jones

Got none for Lawon and Adam.
