African American doesn't indicate that they're mixed (African and white or whatever), but that they're American citizens, same as "Asian American" or "Japanese American" or whatever.

Kudos to CBS, for not going Gimmick Crazy this year. This is the best start to a BB in a long time!

PacMan2006

BB has done a very good job of not casting the "young, obnoxious jock" type this season, and it REALLY helps. Guys like Jase and Scott and many more got old very quickly.

matta

Yeah, I've got to agree. This is one of the most promising casts in several seasons.

Since people are posting look-alikes, Libra reminds me of Gabrielle Union:

Jessie may be the biggest douche bag to have ever been born. I mean his douche bagginess is absolutely off the chart that I think we need a new term to describe him. Maybe Enema Bag?

Howiefan

Come on! Show him some respect.

Patman

He is the douchiest douchebag that ever douched. I was happy to see Brian go, but now we get to see how much Jessie loves himself. I already want Jessie to get voted out followed by Libra, and April. Renny almost seems likeable now.

Howiefan

Did anyone notice that everytime they show Memphis in the diary room, under his name Mixologist is between quotes?

Bluelitespecial

But he is a chef for alcoholics, no matter how much he can defend his job he is still a bartender.

I'm sure there are people working for the liquor companies who have the sole job of inventing new drink recipes. Those people probably never actually serve a drink at a bar, and work in a lab.

Sadly, all of these people are in the power group now and I'm not sure I have confidence in the weaker group to do much. I think it's time for Allison to do her thing and rig an event so we can have a shake up. Otherwise, I think several of the nicer people might go before the majority group even begins to back-stab one another.

I just want to take a moment to thank G-d for making sure that Angie was safe tonight. And please keep her protected for at least 2 more months or let her win.

I'm very behind of this show, but I was pleasantly surprised that the hooters girl wasn't just some dumb blonde bimbo trying to hook up. I was actually quite surprised she was in the minority group, because after missing so much, I would have assumed they chose her to be the house slut and that she would have been the female Jessie and, therefore, probably in tight with the majority group.

Angie is a little safer than they are showing on the show. She's been in a major alliance four person alliance since day 2 (Angie, Memphis, Michelle, & Jessie). While I do agree that he is an epic douchebag that was one of the reasons why Jesse was mad at Angie (plus he has a crush on her...much to Michelle's dismay). I hate that Angie is alligned with tools like Jessie and Michelle, but she isn't going anywhere as long as Memphis has a say in it.

Angie's major problem is that Libra, Ollie, Keesha, & April don't know about this alliance. And Lord knows if you so much as speak to someone who is supposed to be ostracized then you are against them (specifically the two bitchy ones).

Actually watching that food comp I have to wonder what the hell Libra was talking about when she blamed the loss on Jerry and Renny (and she has blamed them). Based on the editing if it was anyone's "fault", it was April.

Dan tied his leg to the wrong guy so he's paying for it. While likeable, Steven has played a clumsy game.

By the way, I still hate that they air the nomination show after the veto meeting has taken place. It's like they are two weeks behind.

clemente

They actually do.....I don't know that Jessie is that guy.
(Those guys tend to have college degrees in the sciences and the like...and Jessie....well.....)

Patman

You mean Memphis (the mixologist), as Jessie is the musclebound, vain douchebag.

Thrush

I prefer to refer to them as Barkeeps or Booze Jockeys.

MrE

No love for Jesse? Never mind -- as long as there's a mirror around, he'll never be lonely.

clckworang

Yeah, guys! Come on, he's got muscles!

Renny has really worked herself back into the house. They mentioned on After Dark that she didn't have her pills when she first got into the house. Makes you wonder a bit.

And Steven has played an incredibly stupid game. He really should have just swallowed his pride and gone up to see the damn HOH room. I think it's ridiculously silly thing that every week the new HOH pretty much insists that everyone come up to the HOH room so they can see the new HOH gloat. I just figured it was a CBS mandate.

Groucho

Usually, when players don't go up to see the new HOH room, it's later on in the season when deep resentments have set in.

Steven strikes me like less of a jerk than somebody who's socially awkward. Witness his "dead pet" conversation as an example.

matta

When you're trying to cast a gay cowboy, you can't be that picky.

Besides, the way the house has setup doesn't work to his favor. It's like a bunch of kids who were popular in high school go together to form the "cool kids" group with the intent of picking off the people they don't deem cool enough to be in their group.

It seems petty, but I guess when people are looking for a reason to "belong", they go with whatever they can find to differentiate themselves (sort of like when a group forms because they all stay up later than the other people).

Jadzia

I find the whole "going up to see the HOH room" thing silly. It's the same damn room. And why do people always bring everyone else with them for the first look? If it were me, I'd want to go in alone and check it out for awhile before I brought everyone in there with me.

Patman

Anything a player can use to "justify" a nomination has always been fair game to be brought up by the HoH as a reason for a nomination. So Steven did himself no favors by not playing the social game, and just gave Jesse more ammo ("perceived" disrespect) to put him on the block.

It does look like the women are doing a good job letting the men to pick off male houseguests because the men are scared of physical dominance advantage in the game that men are perceived to have.
