Big Brother

I recently started watching Big Brother again. The last time I devoted myself to this show, I was in high school. My mom introduced me to the show, as she introduced me to others, like Alias. That was at least 10 years ago.

I was reintroduced to the show while in San Diego visiting some friends. We watched two episodes, and I was hooked all over again, plus it reminded me of my mom, which was nice. With the wonders of the internet, I rarely watch TV shows while they are airing, I’m a Netflix kinda guy, but I came out of my room every Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday to watch Big Brother.

I was team Jody. I’m more a fan of Jessica than Cody, but he won my vote by association. I was sad to see Jessica leave last week and Cody leave this week (as well as Elena, as she was my second favorite in the house). Now I am rooting for Mark, because he is the only one left that isn’t in the Paul alliance.

Granted, I haven’t watched in about a decade, but it seems odd that the whole house created an alliance so quickly, and it also makes the show less interesting, as each week, Paul seems to decide who is going home, and that person goes home. I’m hoping things will be more interesting once the alliance has to turn on each other, but even then, I wouldn’t be surprised if Paul just said X, you’re going up and you’re going home, and they just said, OK.

That being said, I already sunk my teeth in, so I’ll continue to watch because I want to know how it ends.
