The TV Chick

So, the concept of Season 11 of Big Brother is back to school (high school that is). I have to say it’s a very creative theme. I don’t know how I feel about “clique” teams but I wonder how that will affect certain alliances — will people merge cliques? Will there be a jock/nerd showmance? What about an offbeat/popular one? Even in the beginning, I can sort of tell who I think is going to drive me nuts–Chima, what is with your crazy face? Laura, please tone down that boob job. And Natalie, seriously you are fooling no one (they clearly don’t let underage girls in the house!) I do really enjoy Kevin (the self proclaimed blasian)…he will be the Howie/Eric of this season because he is pretty hilarious. Here’s a twist of the game…if someone in the clique wins HOH, no one in that clique can be nominated for eviction. And, someone (a former houseguest) is going to be houseguest #13. I would love Kevin to win the whole thing, but usually someone so outspoken does not last til the end. Chima, seriously, stop laughing. I think I like the offbeat team the best, although I do kind of like the other teams as well.

Here are the teams:

Brains – Chima, Michelle, Ronnie
Athletes – Natalie, Jeff, Russell (and Jessie)
Popular - Jordan, Braden, Laura
Off Beat – Casey, Kevin, Casey

First HOH competition: The Wedgie…you have to hold on to the fake toilet seat above your head while these weird diapers give you a massive wedgie. No one in the yard will be HOH, the newest houseguest will be! So if you win this, you just get some sort of advantage in the competition. One houseguest goes back, but 4 get the chance. Here are my predictions for the 4: Howie, Matt, Jessica, Kaysar. Here are the actual potential new houseguests: Cowboy (I don’t remember how much I liked him, but I think I did), Jessica (got that one, I love Jessica), Brian from BB10 (he wasn’t that entertaining), and Jessie (ehh he was okay. A little annoying). So I guessed 1/4! Go Jessica! If their clique wins, they get to be HOH. Jessica was really the best out of all of them, so go team popular! And side note, Casey really should not be a 5th grade teacher if he can’t determine percentages.

Competition starts: those wedgies look painful! Thanks Russell, for explaining the definition of a wedgie! Oh no, here comes the super wedgie. Julie Chen, you are a journalist. Does it pain you to say “super wedgie?” Just wondering…so the brains are the first clique out…Brian must feel bad being the first “voted off” again. Still rooting for team popular! I bet Jessica and Jordan would be blonde BFFs. Next team to lose–offbeats…so no Cowboy. Popular vs. Athletes (getcha head in the game contestants). Hang in there Laura, use the strength of your Double Ds! Aw man, team popular…I had so much faith in you! At least Jessie will be pretty entertaining. His relationship with Rennie was funny, and maybe he will befriend and/or fight with Casey. If I had to pick a winner right now, I would say Jeff or Jordan.

But anyway, a clique war?! Bring it on! Can’t wait til Sunday! Your thoughts? Chime in! (or Chima in, get it…)
