[size=8]OMG! Spoiler -- Big Brother 10 -- OMG![/size]
I am really loving this show, thus far. Tonight's drama was better than I'd imagined. I was shouting at my TV screen when Jerry -- confronted with the "truth" about Brian by 8 houseguests -- sat there in denial and said he didn't trust any of them.
I was shouting, "You trust BRIAN, Jerry! And he's making you look like a fool telling everyone how he's manipulating you into doing his bidding!"
Good for Libra for stirring this stuff up and forcing April to confront Ollie! And good for Ollie! And good for Jessie and Memphis! And I'll even throw in a GOOD FOR RENNY, because unless she just hangs herself to spite her face, she's not going home this week. And even if she hangs herself, I'll go so far as to say she still won't go home because none of them can afford to let Brian stay.
I felt sorry for Jerry. It was sort of amusing in a bittersweet way to hear him explain why he wasn't wearing any of his military hats -- 'cause he didn't want to shame any of the services when he went back on his word. I hope he recovers quickly, because I'm certain most servicemen would say that only a fool would stick to his word in the face of betrayal, which is the worst kind of dishonor.
Brian amuses me because he's a Mike Boogie wannabe. I know they were likening him to Dr. Will, but Brian was too heavy-handed and obvious to be in Will's league. Brian had delusions of grandeur, walking around and talking to folks like he was Don Vito Corleone promising favors in return for a favor he would call in at some time in the future.
That's the danger of guys falling too much in love with "The Godfather", IMO. They turn into mooks when they try to "be" like a Corleone.
DR MBarnum, I'm wondering -- naturally -- what your take is on Steven and why he's been "under the radar", thus far. We hardly see anything of him, which is good. I recall Season 6 when Kaysar didn't come into his own until, I think the fourth week. That's when Cappy sealed his own fate and got the boot. That remains my favorite season, but also my least favorite outcome.
I hope this season continues to live up to the fun I've had with it so far!
