Default Big Brother 2011?

Anyone watching this season?? I hope so...I can't find a message board where there aren't spoilers given away by people watching the live feeds. I'm trying my best to be good this year and not take a sneak peek at what's coming up...

I don't know!! I wonder if it had something to do with a girlfriend or his business or something. It almost couldn't have had anything to do with close family, or else Danielle would've been gone too.

Thought it was crazy how the returning players had a fit when ED left. I mean...what happened to them was what they were hoping to do to the new people. Why the pity party?

I don't think Evl Dick and his daughter Danielle are as estranged as they want us to think. After he won BB he took her on a trip to Europe .

I agree. I had doubts last time that they'd really been estranged. It's not easy to just immediately start communicating and working closely with someone you haven't spoken to in three years and don't get along with. There didn't seem to be any tension following the introduction of the two of them. I think it was all a big game they hoped to play to get them further in the game.

I was wondering if he left the game so she would have a better shot, but I don't know seems like he is the better player. The best players and the ones that win are the most unlikeable. Remember Dr. Will ?

I actually liked Dr. Will, and thought his reverse psychology stuff (please send me home! Please! I'm not even trying!) was so transparent it was brilliant.

From what I was able to glean from looking at generic, non-spoiler giving sites online, he says it had nothing to do with family or his business, and that he'll announce why he left later this week or something.

He wasn't a favorite of mine. I'm not upset he's gone.

I'm torn between pulling for Jeff and Jordan, just because she seems like such a sweetheart, and the model/outdoor business owner pair, because they seem really down-to-earth and likable. Kinda going more for the newbies right now, just because it almost seems wrong to have winners back...

OOOHHH... I am a junkie, too! I nearly fell off my couch when they brought back Brenden & Rachel. They redeemed themselves with Jeff & Jordan, and then went back to just "eh" when ED & Danielle returned. I am not sure who I am pulling for yet, just as long as it is NOT Brenden & Rachel. I kind of like the model & outdoors woman too.

This is my favorite Summer Addiction

I'm a fan. Dick put out a video, that played before the west coast live show last Thursday, saying he was going to be in the house. I think production kicked him off, because he broke his contract, about letting anyone know he was going to be on the show. I don't believe for one second that he and Dani are estranged. He said he left due to a friend needing him or something on that line. I don't buy it. He loved that show too much to just leave.

I do have the feeds (14 day free trial). Swore I wouldn't buy them again and will cancel when my free trial is over. They block too much and have 4 cameras on the same scene. It's definitely not 24/7 uncensored.

I think Dani is playing an amazing game so far. I'm rooting for a newbie too. The others had their chance. Brendon is driving me crazy, he is so controlling of Rachel.

I wasn't impressed by Brendon's little "man fit" when the guy who's up for eviction was happy that ED left the house. I mean come ON. So far Rachel isn't as obnoxious (at least in what they're showing on TV, I don't know if she really is) as she was last season.

My take on her is that, individually, she's way smarter than she lets on. But put Brendon into the mix and she loses all sense entirely and he runs it all. I think if ANY of the returning players deserves to win, it's Dani. I thought she got totally robbed when ED won that season.

I'm a big fan and I miss Dick.

I follow on message boards but don't have the feeds.

Brendan is really annoying, more so than Rachel. Never thought I would say that.

I won't post any spoilers on here, never fear.

I hope Keith leaves tonight.

Yeah, Keith kinda went off the deep end all of a sudden. Every year there's one guy (or girl) who's totally safe then messes it all up by going haywire.

BB is one of my guilty pleasures! I was really hoping Dr. Will would be back, he was hilarious! Not really a fan of Dick so I'm kind of glad he left. I don't care for his intimidation tactics.

I think I'm rooting for the newbies, although I do like Jordan and Jeff. It does seem kind of unfair to have newbies against past players.

Keith definitely stepped in it already. I'll be watching tonight!

Dick said he will be on the live show tonight, maybe with an explanation why he left. I liked Dick in his season and was looking forward to having him on again. he was over the top, but that's what makes Big Brother fun to watch.

Yeah...that wasn't really an explanation. I wonder if it was the video he supposedly put out before he went into the house, like you said, Pam.

I got the distinct impression some of the newbies threw that HOH competition. They'll regret it...I think I have an idea of who's in trouble next.
