Has there been any write ups crafted regarding what Ollie's parents are thinking/saying since they are religious people?

this season is blah.

from the tired twist, to the boring cast.

Maybe Ollie and April are trying to have a boy.

Maybe it's the way he's edited, but Dan just seems way over the top in everything he does. Even while "throwing" that competition, he just talked way, way too much. Does he get money only if he actually accomplishes something (while Jessie did get nominated, I have a hard time believing that it was because of anything Dan did).

His Vince Lombardi/Rudy-esque cheerleading during the HOH comp was embarrassing. Couldn't believe the producers gave it as much air time as they did. They're either pimping Dan to the audience to further bolster his popularity, or they just don't have any decent footage to use.

Also, I'm not surprised with the sketchy editing--I've come to expect that since season one--but I am surprised BB is totally ignoring the Ollie/April sexcapades. Considering how much controversy-and ratings--the Evil Dick season generated, I'd think they'd milk that inter-racial romance for all it's worth.

I'm surprised Big Brother hasn't stolen an idea from The Mole and, instead of having an America's Player who does the wishes of voters, they had a contestant in the house who's job it was to sabotage the hopes, competitions, and alliances of others. Essentially cause chaos. But even the audience at home wouldn't know who it was until the finale.

I actually like the show without any twists, but I'm just surprised we haven't seen that yet.

Ollie has been almost invisible on the CBS broadcasts over the past few weeks, except the live portion of eviction nights. What's that all about?

It's called laying low and letting April do all his dirty work. He quickly agrees to everything she says knowing that the target stays on her back not his. He's friends with everyone in the house.

He's the one to watch out for.

I'm just glad that Jerry wasn't in the Navy. I can just hear the jokes now about April's back, the Seaman, and Ollie.

I wonder if they realize what kind of abuse they're in for after they leave the house. It will be probably be difficult to live down a summer of boinking for a global audience.

On the other hand, maybe they'll become superstars on the next reality show: "Porking for Dollars."

After tonights show, I hope they get Libra out next week, Michelle had every right to be pissed about losing the Hawaii trip. I hope the house finally goes against the HOH this week and votes out Jessie, I am tired of seeing everyone voting for what the hoh wants. Maybe America's player Dan will have to try and get Jessie voted out.

I hope Jessie doesn't go as he is the only comic relief in this boring cast.

She may have the right to be pissed, but I dont blame Libra or anyone else at all if they took that Hawaii trip. Thats the way they played it out. Do you really think you get out of the competition second to last and get to keep a Hawaii trip, and the winner of the comp. should choose to wear the red leotard? I guess she could have opted for a letter from home, but taking her husband on a romantic Hawaiian vakay will make up for that! I would have taken it also!

You are right, but it shows how Libra is continuing to put a huge target on her back. But at least we won't have to see Libra disgrace the famous red leotard.

What? That veto comp was setup to give a big prize (Hawaii) to a bad player (Michelle) only to have it taken away from the best player (Libra) and her temp prize (leotard). I couldn't believe when Michelle got excited over the trip. She had no concept of the game at that point. What a whiny crybaby tool. I can't wait to see her fall apart when Jessie is yanked outta there on Thursday.

Couldn't believe what a brat Michelle was being, thinking she "deserved" the trip. Why? She didn't win the game! If she wanted a better prize, she should have placed higher in the game.

And aren't Libra's kids babies? I doubt they would be able to write their mother a letter anyways. I know I would have wanted a letter from my husband to hear how the kids are doing, but taking the trip was probably the most practical thing, money-wise.

Keesha has to win the prize for the dumbest-looking contestant. She will probably be mortified when she actually gets to see this on tape.

Maybe not quite as mortified as Ollie's parents...

Being off his 'roids is making him lightheaded and he can't think straight I believe.

----

*What was this deal between Jerry and the others? 3 ways? Wha? I must have missed something big.

*Michelle - what a bitch! Showed your true colors, I see. You had it comin'.

*I agree with whoever said Jessie needs to stay for the comic relief. Memphis is, well, a block of wood most of the time.

I think she has a 4 year old as well. It might make sense money-wise to take that trip but the goal here is to win the game. She should have taken the letter from home from Jessie. Although I loved how irate Michelle got over that. She turned into a 4 year old. I have a feeling she is getting a very generous edit up to this point.

The best line of the night came from Ollie "Their true colors come out when they get offended". LOL.
