BB day 47 Wednesday

Wow ! This is big news !  With everyone evicted from here on to be on the jury really messes with some plans.  It seems to me that Julie shouldn't tell them about the 9 person jury until after the second eviction tomorrow. I'm not positive that this is the best way to go, so I have that question on the blogs. Maybe someone can point out an alternate scenario that would result in a more interesting episode...

'Big Brother 15' to Feature Nine-Person Jury
Wednesday, August 07, 2013

On Big Brother, making it to the jury is half the battle. And for the HGs of Big Brother 15, they've already made it.

That's right, CBS has tweeted what many in the house had actually predicted early on: This season will feature a nine-person jury. And since there are only 11 HGs left, that means everyone is already in.

Thursday will be a live double eviction episode of Big Brother 15, and that's when the HGs will learn that the two who are evicted will both become members of the jury. It kind of make me hope Aaryn gets evicted second, if only because that would mean Aaryn and Candice would be sequestered in the jury house by themselves for an entire week. Talk about awkward.

John has a sadistic streak.  But would this be the most awkward pairing in BB history ?  I doubt it but can't cite previous examples. Perhaps Brendon and Daniele in season 13 ?  

This is certainly going to change some things. First of all, it means Candice, who is almost certainly going to be evicted, is going to be a member of the jury. That's bound to upset quite a lot of people. Most HGs actually.

It could also impact what happens during the live double eviction. Fear of not making it to jury has seemingly forced everyone to tighten up their play in order to avoid making enemies. With that fear gone, will HGs finally step up and make big moves?

But this would not be a factor if Julie doesn't reveal the 9 person jury until after the second eviction. John seems to think that she will reveal after the first eviction, which come to think of it would shake things up more, so maybe my opinion of Julie not revealing early isn't the best thing ....

Starting in season 4, the seven-person jury system was introduced, with the HGs being sequestered and prevented from watching the episodes until the end of the season when they cast their votes. This was due to season 3, when all 10 evicted HGs got to vote as jury members and weren't sequestered, resulting in Danielle Reyes losing because many HGs were angry with the way she acted in her private diary room sessions.

Between news that they have already made jury and a double eviction on Thursday, it's going to be a very emotional night for everyone on Big Brother 15.

John may be a little hard on her. Listening to her speech patterns you would not be surprised that she would write similarly, and besides, she is from Staten Island after all..... 


'Big Brother 15' HoH Blog: GinaMarie May Not Be the Best Writer
Wednesday, August 07, 2013

Every week on Big Brother 15, the outgoing HoH gets to write a blog post about their time in power and their thoughts on the house. On Tuesday, after GinaMarie wrote hers, she was crying because she was worried she couldn't spell and came across as stupid with her blog. Helen and Amanda assured her this was not the case and that she has plenty to offer the world.

Now the blog is posted on the Big Brother 15 website, and it turns out her fears were warranted. As an editor, I read her 400-word post and immediately had a desperate need to cover my computer screen with red ink.

Just for fun, I've handpicked my favorite outrageous grammatical mistakes from her blog.

"OMG BBVX"

-This isn't that bad since Roman numerals are tricky, but 15 is XV. VX is a deadly nerve gas.

"this weeks been crazy!!!!"

-This sums up everything wrong with these blogs, and to be fair, it's not just GM's problem. The houseguests tend to avoid proper capitalization, avoid correct apostrophe usage and include excessive amounts of exclamation points.

"i can't believe I'm had the honor of being HOH"

-This is just the second sentence of GM's HoH blog and already I'm at a loss for words. "I'm had"?

"the only thing that could of made being HOH perfect was having Nick here to share it with me"

-Ignoring her stalker-ish obsession with Nick, "could of" is one of my personal pet peeves. It's supposed to be "could have."

"but i know he's routing me on back home and is super duper proud of me"

-First of all, no 33-year-old woman should ever use the phrase "super duper." Second, Nick isn't "routing" for anyone. Maybe he's "rooting" for her, but the only thing he's routing is directions to get as far away from GM as possible.

"if you ever see that "Blue Hat" it means i'm thinking of you and knowing your still with me in this crazy house"

-Again, let's try to ignore the Fatal Attraction-level of obsession with Nick and focus on another personal pet peeve: "your" vs. "you're."

"but it not all sunshine and rainbows"

-To be fair, she may just be quoting Cookie Monster, because I'm fairly certain he's said those exact words at some point on Sesame Street.

"you know you have to nom 2 house guest and thats one of my hardest jobs"

-Never mind the missing apostrophe, how about making "house guest" plural since she's talking about two?

"but it a dirty job an somebody's Got to do it"

-GM's Cookie Monster-style returns. Equally confounding is why she chose to capitalize "Got."

"I coundt be happier living in the Big brother House"

-OK, maybe this is just a typo and she meant to write "couldn't."

"i coundt of asked for anything more"

-Oh wait, she wrote "coundt" again, so there goes my typo theory.

"I feel truly blessed for bing here and living my dreams"

-Either she forgot the "e" in "being," or this is some brilliant product placement for that thing that isn't Google.

"I may not be the best writer but i try lol"

-This is the understatement of the century.
