It's Time: Big Brother Preview and Live Chat!

Okay...if you're watching on the West coast, you may want to join in the pre-show discussion, then leave and come back. We don't want to ruin anyone's experience with spoilers!

And, if you don't watch Big Brother, just drop in and talk about your day. We really do talk about much more than  Big Brother! (And I also try to return all comments, although I can't always do it comment-for-comment.)

Now, let's bring everyone up to speed:
Jess, whom I really hate, is HOH. Of all people to be HOH this week, Jess is the person I would have chosen last. (HOH is head-of-household for non-BB fans. This person holds all the power.)

Nominations were made on Sunday. Jordan and Michelle are up, leaving a very surprised Ronnie. (Does anyone think it odd that Jordy is the only memeber of the popular clique to still be around. That's how life goes. Most of the popular kids from my high school aren't so popular now, either.) Anyway, do you think he's trying to back door Ronnie (the nerd who has placed himself on lockdown since his horrendous week as HOH. Or do you think Ronnie is really safe?

Hi there! I don't know if I'll be around during the show, but I'll try. I also can't stand Jesse, but I also can't stand Ronnie. I'm not sure I even want to watch it much longer. The only person I like at all is Lydia, and now that she seems to be interested in Jesse...gag.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 8:53pm UTC
Thanks for stopping by. I think they could have done a better job casting. Don't you think Lydia's interest in Jesse is an act, not even rising to the ranks of a showmance?

Drop in if you can't. If the show is moving, it's hard to follow and chat, too, so we can talk on Wednesday.

Ronnie has gotten on my nerves, but I must admit I feel sorry for him.
Christine Zibas Aug 3, 2009, 9:49pm UTC
I am with you, although I like Jeff, Jordan, and Michelle. Ronnie, Jesse, and Scrappy in particular drive me nuts. Once my people are voted off, not sure I will want to keep watching. What a crew this time around.
JoAnn C. Jul 28, 2009, 8:43pm UTC
HI Amanda. I'm watching the Travel Channel (Extreme Barhopping).
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 8:54pm UTC
Extreme barhopping? Well that beats the guy on the Travel channel who eats all the wierd food. Not Anthony Bourdaine but the other guy...Enjoy the show. Thanks for stopping by, JoAnn!
JoAnn C. Jul 28, 2009, 8:56pm UTC
Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern is on next
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:03pm UTC
Andrew Zimmern is the one I don't like.
JoAnn C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:10pm UTC
I don't mind him. He is a little too happy for all the weird stuff he eats.
Christine Zibas Aug 3, 2009, 9:50pm UTC
"Extreme Barhopping" sounds better than "Big Brother"!
Mary M. Jul 28, 2009, 8:52pm UTC
I don't watch the show.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 8:54pm UTC
Thanks for stopping by, Mary. And thanks for the inspirational quotes you posted earlier. I liked the Walt Disney one the best. Have a good night!
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:04pm UTC
Do you think Jordan and Michelle are really ponds? Which one do you think Jessie will leave up? I really like Michelle and do not want her to go.
Christine Zibas Aug 3, 2009, 9:56pm UTC
I like Michelle too; she seems lonely in that house full of nuts.
Sue * Jul 28, 2009, 9:07pm UTC
No, I don't.

You feel sorry for Ronnie? Not me-I think he's a snake.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:08pm UTC
I know you're right. I just felt sorry because everyone was picking on him. Granted, he deserved it. Sometimes, I feel sorry for the wrong people. Now he's going on with all this you are my brother/sister crap, so my feelings are fading...
Christine Zibas Aug 3, 2009, 10:01pm UTC
I had to laugh on Sunday when Ronnie called himself a King Cobra. I hope he's out this week.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:07pm UTC
Did Ronnie just make a pass at Michelle?
Sue * Jul 28, 2009, 9:12pm UTC
I was reading on here and missed it if he did. I'm trying to catch up on articles. I can't seem to keep up anymore.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:15pm UTC
Me, too, Sue. I try to do the best I can. I don't worry so much about keeping up with the comments as I do about keeping up with those I consider friends. I just read the news about your beagle and I'm so happy for you and her!
Sue * Jul 28, 2009, 9:21pm UTC
Thanks, we are very happy too. We are also being a little guarded, just because the answers were so different. But, she doesn't have any of the symptoms right now, and the vet said she would be gone by now if she really had it.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:25pm UTC
I'm glad she doesn't seem to be in pain.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:20pm UTC
Okay...now we're after the power of veto.

So who's playing....Jessie, Jordy and Michelle

Time for a commercial...
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:27pm UTC
I hope no one thinks I'm stupid for talking to myself. Maybe someone will join us later in the evening.

Oh the veto contest is turning out to be interesting...with a free trip to Hawaii up for grabs! I'd take it and say so much for the POV.

I'm confused. Is Ronnie competing?
Sue * Jul 28, 2009, 9:30pm UTC
Ronnie isn't...I'm behind. I keep stopping it with TIVO. My daughter is at the American Idol concert and she keeps calling and letting me hear them sing.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:31pm UTC
Thanks for participating. I would be pretty lonely without you, Sue!
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:31pm UTC
Wow...Jessie just won $2,500.
Christine Zibas Aug 3, 2009, 10:02pm UTC
On Sunday he got mad at Kevin and Lydia because they won things after dropping out of the HOH contents. Ironic, no?
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:33pm UTC
Casey is pretty popular...he just won a margarita party!
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:34pm UTC
Go Michelle!
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:35pm UTC
Yeah...Michelle wins POV. She's going to take herself off the block. Who will go up?
Sue * Jul 28, 2009, 9:44pm UTC
Casey
Pam H. Jul 28, 2009, 9:44pm UTC
Sorry, I don't watch this. Actually, I don't watch much tv at all.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:48pm UTC
Thanks for stopping by anyway, Pam. I hope you have a good evening.
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:48pm UTC
So, it looks like Casey is going on the block. Too bad...he's a good guy. Even in his banana suit.
Sue * Jul 28, 2009, 9:58pm UTC
My computer is slow. I'm off...night Amanda, thanks!
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 9:59pm UTC
Thanks so much for chatting with me, Sue. Sleep well!
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 10:00pm UTC
So, who thinks Casey will go? Who thinks Jordy will go?

And what will be the big twist? I think they'll shake up the cliques.
Renita P. Jul 28, 2009, 10:00pm UTC
dont' watch the show but still wanted to return a comment/view for ya!
Amanda "middle of nowhere" C. Jul 28, 2009, 10:00pm UTC
Thanks Renita. That means a lot to me. Have a good evening!
M M. Jul 28, 2009, 10:30pm UTC
I don't watch it. Just stopping by to give you a point and say hi Amanda.
Ms Lee P. Jul 29, 2009, 1:26am UTC
I love Jessie and also like Ronnie, but I love Jessie. He's nice to look at and Ronnie is so smart and he's sort of an underdog type. I can't remember the dude's name who has to wear the banana suit all week, I'm not too fond of him.
Sophie S. Jul 29, 2009, 2:55am UTC
Never got the point of this show, but then again, I never really sat down and watched an episode. I'll have to try it sometime.
Bundy P Jul 29, 2009, 6:09pm UTC
Ugh! I can't believe they kept Ronnie. I kind of like Casey, and I can't stand Jessie. I'm sorry I missed the chat, but I'm still trying to catch up from the weekend. Maybe Thursday night...!
donna h. Jul 31, 2009, 3:16pm UTC
I never watch...
Christine Zibas Aug 3, 2009, 9:46pm UTC
Well, here I am weighing in after Sunday's show, just to get my two cents in. I so hope that Ronnie goes home. To me he is a little evil devil. And I dislike the whole Jesse clique; Scrappy drives me crazy.

I was so sad to see Casey leave. He was my favorite. I am hoping that either Michelle or Jeff get the secret power. I am down to only liking 3 people on the whole show: Jeff, Jordan, and Michelle. The rest of them leave a bad taste in my mouth. Am I alone in this?
