Big Brother (BB16) Premiere Night Two - Thursday Recap

Here is your Big Brother Big Mouth Breakdown on the #BB16 Premiere - Night Two


We were so ready to get the other group of eight into the house to get this thing started and in full gear.  We know most of you have watched this so we'll give an abbreviated recap of this network show since the live feeds (#BBLF) will be on soon and require our full attention.  

The show started off with the usual meet-the-new house guests.  Only a couple of real stand out moments in that portion.  We see Victoria's arrogance with her multiple statements about how wonderful and beautiful she thinks she is.  Caleb fancies himself a "metrosexual cowboy".  Christine says she knows she cannot win without getting blood on her hands at some point and is prepared to do that when the time comes.  Jocasta, well, we can just sum that up with the word overzealous.  Zach came in blazing with some statements like " I don't need friends because all I care about is myself." When answering what kind of people annoy him, he answered with, and I paraphrase, people that talk, eat, sleep, and breath.  While I literally LOL at this, I know it may be his downfall.  It worked when Dr. Will did it, but Jeremy suffered a much different fate, so only time will tell.  Hayden even calls himself goofy, so we pretty much know what to expect there.  He claims to have been a good student, so maybe he is hiding a big brain under all that hair, we'll see.

The second group enters with all of the usual screaming and craziness.  Christine is a super fan, so she is in awe just entering the house.  Caleb locks his sights on Amber early on.  Every time the door opens Frankie prances over to meet and greet.  Some DR comments reveal Zach stating he doesn't "give a damn about meeting these people", Nicole is already worried about alliances being challenged, and Donny is just worried he can't remember who all these people are.  After everyone had settled in a bit, the big group introductions take place.  Derrick is hiding his job as a police officer, but drawing on his undercover skills to pull off selling himself as a Parks & Rec Coordinator.  So far, nobody seems to doubt him. Cody reveals he is eying Britney's body, but I'm not sure if she has noticed yet.

Then they get to talking more.  Frankie is the first we see to head off in a direction of a side alliance with someone from the new group.  He and Victoria have hit it off and Frankie wants them to work together.  Paola starts to feel out the Caleb situation, feeling that because he is "the other" big personality in the house, he may want to target her.  Say what?  Really?  I don't think Caleb is feeling threatened by anyone right now, least of all her.

Donny uses his rather unusual talent of mimicking cricket sounds to "distract" the other HGs.  He says he'd rather them view him as a funny guy rather than a guy that is good at the game.  It is a little odd, but his housemates seem quite impressed and intrigued by this.  I have to admit, I am a little too.

Zach strikes again when talking with Frankie in the bathroom.  He calls him out by mentioning he is familiar with Pine Crest, the school Frankie had attended.  He points out that the school has a reputation (for snobby, privileged, rich kids).  Frankie looked less than amused by this and in DR says that Zach should watch himself pissing off the HOH like that.  

We finally get to the HOH competition.  It was called "Over the Coals".  The HGs wrapped around a big BBQ spit and hung on for dear life...well, some of them did.  Derrick went with a bear hug method instead of using the handles they could use.  Worked well for a while.  Joey sat back oogling at Caleb's butt.  Victoria was the first to drop.  At this point Frankie still seems to think he will be working with whoever wins this HOH and was disappointed that Victoria dropped so fast.   BB production decides to make things get a little slick by squirting the rest of them with a good dose of BBQ sauce.  Britney didn't hang on long after that, and Jocasta went shortly after her.  Following that, Christine looses her grip and hits the ground.  Zach, deciding that he wants to lay low, lets go and drops by choice.  Derrick was thinking along the same lines and told us in DR that he'd stayed on long enough to show he was strong, but not so long to seem threatening, and he too chose to drop.  This leaves only Hayden and Caleb hanging on.  The spit stops with the guys hanging off the side.  Caleb takes this opportunity to show everyone just how NOT hard this task is for him by showing off in a feats of strength display.  Hayden, probably realizing Caleb had this in the bag, fell off.  Caleb is named the second HOH.  

Julie then explains the whole Battle of the Block thing.  To be honest, I'm a little unclear on this part myself, so I'm not going to go into too much detail with that.  In short, the four nominees will battle one another and one pair will get off the block and one HOH will be named.  

The Team America votes are in.  The first HG to be placed on the secret Team America alliance is Joey.  Each of the three people in this alliance will be given missions to complete.  If completed, they will get $5000.  The votes are open now for the second HG to join this alliance and that vote will be revealed on the live show next Thursday.  

As we look in on the house guests at the end of the show we see Frankie riding Caleb's back through the house.  All I can say is that gave new meaning to the whole "Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy" thing.

That's it for the Night Two Big Brother Premiere Recap.  We'll get another blog up going over the first night of live feeds as soon as we can.  Boy this is gonna' be a loooong night!  See you soon!

Big Brother 16 Premiere - Wednesday Network Show Recap

This is our 

CBS Network Show Big Brother Big Mouth Breakdown:


Not too bad for the first night, can't wait to see what tomorrow's show holds.  (Especially after we heard Zach say he lies "every single time" he opens his mouth! But I fear Jocasta may be as obnoxious as her laugh. We'll see.)  I think we will be seeing backstabbing and backbiting start pretty early this year.  We can't wait!!

The first 8 house guests entered the house tonight, forming the first alliance as well.  The "Crazy 8" alliance consists of Frankie, Amber, Cody, Devin, Donny, Nicole, Joey and Paola.  As the group tells DR cameras about their own first impressions, we were happy to see that Donny and Nicole seemed to both be drawn toward one another for possible alliance purposes.  Considering we like both of them so far, this was good news.  We are also happy to say that Frankie is not as obnoxious as he looks. (And I know he thinks his sister is world renowned, but I had to look her up to find out who she was.)  

We also found out that Amber is quite attracted to Devin, who didn't seem to notice her, instead showing a real interest in our blue-haired girl Joey.  Uh oh!  I can smell trouble brewing already!  Especially considering Paola's GIANT crush on the much younger Cody.  Any other girl looks his way and Paola may snap and scratch their eyes out!  This girl has got it bad already!  Speaking of Cody, what's up with those um, unusual, faces he makes?  You see that?  Personally, I think Cody may have a nice body, but that face, well...let's just say there are nicer looking ones in the house.  

So shortly following their initial meetings and discussions, the younger guys shed their shirts to do sit ups, in what I believe may have been an attempt to hypnotize the other HGs with their totally awesome abs.  Poor Donny didn't join in, but is responsible for setting up the first side alliance.  Devin and Donny have agreed to become the Double D alliance.  This might be a good point to mention that it is apparent the not all of our HGs are so fit and trim...and I'm not referring to Donny.  I'm sure a few runs as Have Nots will take that little jiggle right out of them though. 

Paola is getting suspicious of some of the guys early on.  She already commented that Frankie and Cody looked like they were about to "share each others lipstick".  Say what?  Oh yes she did!  Amber was the first to suggest a girl needed to win this year.  Considering it was only the four girls present, this quickly turned into the all girl alliance.  They will now be known as the El Quatro alliance.  I love little Nicole, but just had to laugh when she said she didn't "know what ElQuatro is".

So one group of eight and three alliances already.  Bring on the backbiting!  LOL  

Then came our first HOH competition.  

Here is the breakdown on that: 

"Fly A Kite" had our house guests on a log roll style comp, holding onto a kite string.  They all seemed pretty steady in the beginning.  After a bit, the first to go down was Paola, followed by Joey.  Just after that, the challenge was intensified by a good shot of sunscreen.  Almost immediately Nicole slips off.  The rest seem to be hanging pretty well when a switch in the direction of the log roll sent Donny down and Devin so close behind they could have been holding hands!   

This left Cody, Frankie and Amber to battle it out.  Surprisingly, Cody dropped off sixth.  Amber and Frankie were both in great shape when Amber suddenly became fear stricken.  Recalling Julie saying the HOH was not actually safe, she dropped her kite line and let Frankie take it.  

Julie didn't fill them in on all of the info regarding the twist, but she did tell them that there would be eight more HGs joining them and that one of them would also be an HOH.  Without giving details, she simply explained that "by the end of the week only one HOH would be left standing".

It was only in the last few minutes that another twist, the one concerning Team America, was addressed.  We all voted last week for the player that we would choose to align with.  This person has not yet been named, but whoever he or she is, will become the first member of a secret alliance being called the "Team America" alliance.  Over the next two weeks our votes will determine the other two people that will be added to this alliance.  Is it just me or does this sound like America's Player in group form?  

Tomorrow we should find out who the first is, as well as who our second HOH will be.  Oh Big Brother, only one hours worth of programming to hold us over until tomorrow?  Why CBS?  Why?  It seems like so many hours to wait, but luckily late late tomorrow our feeds will come on, and then we will all be set for the summer.

Our Big Brother 16 House Guests Character Assassinations...errr, Assessments


Okay...the initial bios and video interviews are here!  We have read them, viewed them, and thoroughly discussed them.  Now let's break this down and give you our first impressions of all the new #BB16 house guests!

The Big Brother Big Mouth HG Breakdown:


What a crew!  At least they are all NEW faces!!  We really, really didn't want to see any returning players, even for an All-Star show.  What we don't care much for is the lack of attention to a more even age range spread and the number of very obvious recruits.  

We've got more than one house guest that has no prior BB viewing experience (other than the seasons they watched while sequestered with nothing else to fill their time).  While this doesn't always affect the game in major ways, we just hate seeing people that get cast for the show as opposed to bringing in people that are truly super fans, people that really, really want to be in that BB house.  

I've said for years - a Summer of the Super Fan theme would be so freakin' awesome!!  Come on CBS - I'm giving you a sure winner here!!

Our BB16 House Guests page gives you a full list of the HGs along with our character  assassinations  assessments of this years crop of monkeys!  Now we sit back and wait for the monkeys to dance!!

Big BB16 Twist Revealed

So Julie Chen finally made the big Big Brother 16 Twist announcement...we sat through several excruciating minutes (17 I think, felt like an hour at least) to get to it. Let's just say it leaves a lot to be desired. 

The Big Brother Big Mouth breakdown:   The big #BB16 Twist starts with two HOHs every week...each HOH will nominate 2 HGs to sit on the block, giving us four people on the chopping block each week.  Here is the big piece that could actually make this interesting (or not, depending on how they utilize it) - neither HOH is automatically safe, instead having to participate in some sort of challenge called Battle of the Block.  Hmm...I'll reserve judgement until we see how this works.  Oh yeah, and they claim that we, the audience, aka "Team America", will get to have a major influence (note that I said influence, not impact) on the game...again, let's see what they actually do with this. 

For me, the hype about revealing this big Big Brother 16 Twist was by far bigger than the actual announcement...we already figured out there were two distinct groups within the house (unless you missed those pics everywhere showing two memory walls).  So a battle between the two - well, no big shocker.  Tell us what you think...after all that IS what this blog is about!  And be sure to join BB Big Mouth on facebook for all the BB16 action! too!  An no BS PC comments either - we want to know what you really think!
