Big Brother 7: All Stars
I started out the episode with a cautionary word to Will (and he couldn't hear me, I realize that fully), that it is not 100% that you are staying. I said "You know Will, there's about a 10% chance that you're going to leave tonight. You'd better keep those girls under control." Of course, he did not listen to me.

What is very strange is the way that he allowed Erika and Jani to talk to eachother so much when it was crucial to keep them apart. He stayed with Erika all night to keep Danielle from influencing Erika before, so why the lapse in attention? He knew they were talking and they were talking about what liars Chill Town has been, so he should have come up with a plan. I came up with a couple that could have worked quite well -- both during the commercial just before the eviction was announced. The best and most playable one would be to break everything with Erika, Mike included. If they'd staged a huge fight, calling Erika a liar and how she's never been with them (all in front of Janelle) how they never promised her anything... it might have been enough to make Janelle doubt Erika, especially if Mike were able to pull off the "hurt lover" act, saying she betrayed him... perhaps he had a secret alliance with her and now her action has let Will in on it... it would be a very complex lie, but the complexity would have been great, the more weirdness the better because it would have confused Janelle.

Another more rash and complex plan would have been to stage a fake fight between Will and Boogie, something that almost comes to blows and maybe they'd break some things. They would have to come up with something that sounded good and made it seem like Will's alliance to Janelle was pissing Mike off and that Mike's alliance to Erika was pissing Will off. Will's version to Janelle could involve how he was saying something about backing the showmance off with Erika because it was getting more serious than they needed and anything more was just malicious, but Mike was being cruel, and then it might have escalated to personal attacks about this and that and their mothers or whatever and then they swore not to take eachother. Conversely, perhaps Will overheard Mike and Erika talking about how they were screwing him over and he confronted him about it and that's what the fight is about. A bonus would have been to stage part of the fight out of view but within earshot of Janelle, and then maybe the fight is on the move and Mike starts badmouthing Janelle viciously. If Will were to defend her convincingly, she would have been putty. Janelle is just that type who hates other women, finds her identity in the attention that men give her, and would just eat up that kind of show of affection. Either way, however it gets started, a staged falling out probably would have tricked Janelle for one more week into trusting Chill Town.

After Will left the house Mike threw the first part of the HOH. While I'm positive that he was just mad about Will leaving (did you see his face? sad ) and so wasn't thinking absolutely clearly and cleverly, it was a great move. First of all, there is no way that he would have outlasted Erika. No Way. So he would have lost to one of them anyway. Secondly, the whole stunt shook Jani's and Erika's alliance. It shook it badly. The shock of it happening so quickly, and with such emotion, and with such confidence, made both of the girls think... "Wait... is he right? Should I take him to the final two? *gasp* Is SHE thinking that!?" Erika tried to get Janelle to just give it to her because of their alliance and Janelle said "Uh unh!". Obviously, it's every person for themselves right now, and if he hadn't planted those little seeds of doubt in their minds, it probably would have been a foregone conclusion that the final two would come down to Janelle and Erika.

Unfortunately, I don't really like anyone that is left. sad




Rockstar: Supernova
Storm's set was the best, hands DOWN, of the night. I really liked her original song. It had a nice melody, but it was also about something and she sold it. I didn't like Dilana's as much as I've liked her in past weeks, same with Lukas, and the others were pretty blah. I HATED Toby's original song. What the hell? "Oh oh oh oh oh"? Didn't Supernova just write a song with a bunch of "oh's" in it and HE was the one singing it? Wait wait, and isn't he the one who broke a guitar the night after Magni said he would do it the next time he performed? Oh AND he was the guy who ran up into the back of the crowd the night after the group suggested that Magni do the same thing. And now he's starting to wear more makeup like Lukas... hmmm... I'm sensing a pattern. Please send him back to Australia. And take Gilby Clark with you.




Wednesday Sept. 6


Rockstar: Supernova
So Toby got the encore. Which is not a surprise because Supernova has BAD taste (they did write a song very similar to the one winning the encore, hmm?) and they seem to like whoever I hate the most. They had a looong obsession with Ryan (can't STAND him evil ). I was sad about that because I had to listen to his awful song again. Plus, weirdly, he did the exact same performance as he did last night. Obviously he is just not a creative person. He's always just stealing ideas from other people and using them inappropriately in his own songs and acts. Like the megaphone. Good idea, wrong usage. He just seems like a copycat no matter what he does. Or a "poser" perhaps as the children say?

Magni got the new Supernova song. I talked throughout the song, it was boring. I'm sad Storm didn't get it because she didn't get a single song of theirs to do. She has the BEST voice and yet she is so underappreciated.

As soon as Tommy Lee said he "just couldn't do it," I KNEW it was Storm going home because I knew that he liked her. That is sad, because despite myself I like Tommy Lee so I'm sad he didn't get a girl in the band like he apparently wanted, and that they kicked someone he liked so much off. He liked the original song she did (maybe he's the only one with good taste in that band). ******** Gilby Clark...

I'm actually glad that she was kicked out because she's too good for them. I think Dave had a crush on her, so maybe she's glad she doesn't have to be on tour with him -- he's quick, sure, but maybe not quick enough for Storm. Plus my mom and dad both say Dave is the devil o_o. I don't think she even wanted to be in the band, she just used it as a stepping stone in her career, for exposure. And good for her heart


Scrubs
K, I know the scrubs I watched tonight were not new, but they were new to me 4laugh

The funniest bit from both was the Public Service Announcement about smothering your children. Hilarious.

I was completely freaked out by the second episode, because I actually recognized the deja vu's that were happening, so I kept wondering if I'd already seen it. It really freaked me out. In the end, I don't think I had... ... But I'm not sure. It was very funny and clever.

I heart J.D.
