That's right folks, it's back! Time to strap yourselves in for three months of ridiculous hyperbole, pointless game twists, needless backbiting and entertaining scream fights. Our favorite display of beautiful people thinking they're smart, smart people thinking they're crafty and crafty people misusing stupid lingo like "floaters", "backdoor", and "game play" has returned. And that means I will be writing at least three posts a week that none of my friends will even bother reading, yet I enjoy writing too much to give up. Now that Big Brother is back on summer has officially begun.
Per usual, this season of Big Brother is going to give us a new "twist" on the game we have come to love, coaches. Coaches are past house guests that are being brought back into the house not to compete but to "coach" players to victory. Let's start by counting our lucky stars that Big Brother spared us another three months of having to watch Rachel whine, bitch, cry, argue, make stupid comments, annoyingly laugh... I'm not sure how I feel about this obvious play by the producers to make sure old favorites get in the house without making it yet another all-star season, but I am happy, for the most part, with the people they brought back. Britney is one of my all time favorites, Mike is funny but I'm not sure how entertaining he will be without Dr. Will, Dan is vanilla, neither exciting or offensive. The only one I can't stand is Janelle, who I still contend was once a man. I'm not sure how the presence of these four will effect things, but something tells me that they will end up playing a bigger role in how things shake out then Julie led on last night.
It's hard to really comment on things after one episode. We haven't really gotten a feel for the players or the house dynamic, so most of what happened doesn't have much meaning to us viewers yet. The biggest stand out is obviously Willie Hantz, who is obviously coming in with a lot of baggage. I don't understand why Mike and Janelle were so scared of picking him for their team once they realized who he was. If I have three picks, why not make Hantz one of them? Yes, he may be kicked out quick, but if he is anything like his brother, there is also a chance that he lasts till the end. If he gets kicked out, you still have two other people in the game. And what does the "love of Dan's life" feel about him picking the two most attractive girls in the house over people with actual athletic ability. Dan picked a team that has no chance of winning a physical challenge all season. Of course that's assuming the coaches are stuck with this players the whole season, which the chances are very slim of happening. Big Brother will blast apart this format after three weeks or so.
All that being said, I think Britney has the strongest team with the best chance of having winner on it. My favorite team is Dan's for obvious reasons. Janelle's team appears to be the weakest, but then again, my opinions are totally biased.
