Big Brother 7 All Stars Nears the End!
Another Summer bites the dust!
Well, tv just doesn’t get any better than Big Brother and since we don’t yet have DVD’s to watch like most other reality tv shows like Survivor, we’ll just have to savor the last few moments and wait till next Summer.
If you really dig the show and wat to discuss with other enthusiasts I suggest you visit TV Robot as they have a great Big Brother 7 All Stars page!

Is that really you Marcellas???
Big Brother 3 DVD
Looks like Marcellas got his feathers ruffled a bit by the review on the DVD at American Reality TV. He blasts the blogger for not having a life when it appears that Mr. Marcellas spends his time googling himself.
Interesting read! You go girl!

The final four are now shaping the way Big Brother 6 will wrap up this Summer. Just 9 more days and we’ll be watching theseason finale.
Right now Janelle is Head of Household and has put up Maggie and Ivette for eviction.
It’d be amazing if Janelle can make it to the final two, but even after she dumps 1 of the nerd herd she’ll be outnumbered by 1. Then again she is the most powerful of the bunch and can likely win HOH over Maggie.
We’ll just have to wait and see how it all plays out. Regardless of who wins it was a fun season to watch.

I know I’m crazy. I do have a life. My friends don’t understand why I watch reality tv shows, much less a show called Big Brother.
But screw ‘em!
I’m certain that they’d be drawn in too and enjoy the power struggles and the outpurings of emotion that shows like Big Brother 6 and Survivor server up in large doses.
Take last weeks episodes of Big Brother 6 where the underdogs Janelle and Kaysar got a chance to set up the cocky short fireman and actually got him evicted despite his apparent influence over the house.
Scripted or unscripted that was good television.
Granted, I do see my friends points as they likely are equating reality tv with some of the stupid shows they’ve been exposed to.
But I dare anyone who has spent time watching Big Brother for more than a couple of episodes to tell me the show is not fun to watch.
I dare ya!

Buyers: Few Rock-Solid Shows In Nets'Fall Lineups (AdWeek.com)
AdWeek.com - Though media buyers credited each of the broadcast networks—except NBC—for finding at least a few fall 2005 shows that will become solid performers, it wasn't until UPN showed off its Everybody Hates Chris comedy that they felt they had found a truly buzz-worthy show. In general, however, there's a feeling of sameness across all the networks'schedules that left buyers largely unimpressed.
Your opinions please…

Am I the only person that has had a few dreams with Mr. Trump in them (no not that kind of dream!)???
Donald Trump has made cameos in my dreams several times as a business associate or boss figure who I was out on sales calls with… is that weird or what???
The dreams could not have been more real and what I remember most is that we had a casual and comfortable comradery.
What is particularly strange is that I have not worked for a boss in over 10 years.
In any event the dreams were pretty cool and made me smile at how I manged get Mr. Trump in them… the power of television!
I’m not the only one that has dreamt of Donald Trump, am I???

Kendra is Hired!
I couldn’t be more happy to see Kendra was hired as the new Apprentice.
Ya know, I thought it was a long shot for the other lady, Tana, but I must admit Donald Trump added uncertainty when he harped on Kendra’s crying. I almost thought Kendra had a shot… but fortunately that was just to build the tension.
In the end Kendra got the gig and Tana is shipped back to the farm.
Great season finale - congrats Mr. Trump.

It aint over yet! Sunday night and someone is winning Survivor tonight!
OK, it’s 9:16 PM here in California and the final episode of Survivor is on TV. Since I am Tivo’ing it I haven’t begin watching it yet!
I will now FINALLY make my judgements and select the one I’d like to win.
The final 4 contestants are:
Katie - looking better since she’s shed a few points, and she has a nice personality. She got a bit emotional on Ian and that was hard to take, but she has grown on me.
Ian - I was indifferent about Ian up until last weeks episode when he started to act goofy. First he and Tom decide if they win a reward challenge that they’d bring one of the gals so they’d be seperated. Ina wins a car and a reward at a mansion and what does he do - he picks Tom to accompany him. That alone had me thinking twice about him, but when things heated up he started having trouble reponding and I thought he dug himself in so deep he’d be a goner last week… but he didn’t.
Tom - the most intelligent and capable of the survivor’s. Tom is very level headed which I appreciate. His calm handling of Ian’s change in plans was admirable. If Tom makes it to the final two he is without question going to be the sole survivor as voted by the jury.
Jenn - She is pretty and a good competitor. She is strong, but didn’t really play the game too much, at least not all that noticeably. She clung to Greg a bit much and was more of his shadow.
OK, all that laid out on the table it must seem obvious I am rooting for Tom as the winner of Survivor Palau. I am. He is strong and honest.
Here are my picks in order.
1. Tom - he deserves it
2. Katie - she deserves runner up, but blew it by keeping Ian in the game
3. Jenn - no one will feel she is qualified to be the soul survivor. I can’t see her winning, although she looks good. Also the jury will still hold her relationship with Greg against her.
4. Ian - he should not win. If he makes it to the final two, he will lose. If he wins the joke is on us.
So, let’s see how it pans out. Regardless of who wins I will say I enjoyed this season of Survivor almost as much as All-Stars and much better than the dud season of Vanuatu.
Survivor just keeps on kicking!
May 16th, 2005
Survivor is one of the few shows that I watch immediately after Tivo has recorded it. That means I enjoy it a tad more than The Apprentice, which usually gets watched the following evening, provided I have watched survivor.
As the season of Survivor Palau comes to a close, it is getting more and more captivating. They’ve elimated the numbnuts and nimrods for the most part and the strategy is kicking in.
Last night I was pleased to see them throw a monkey wrench and decide as a group to dump Greg. It really suprised him. I was rooting out loud as there was a chance that there would be a tie and then they’d have to do some kind of stone selection routine, whatever that is…
So, while I am not quite ready to pick my my favorites for the final 3, I will say that I am pleased with where the show has gone this season. The contestants are more attractive, for the most part smarter and the challenges have not been as dumbed down as last season in Vanuatu.
Rock on Survivor Palau! The end is near! Anticipation builds.
