TV Review - Big Brother 9

I don't know why I continue to watch every cycle of Big Brother. It's the typical car-wreck style reality TV show. In fact, it should probably get the award for Most Ridiculous Concept. But it's one of the originals and I find myself tuning in every time.

I'll blame DBF's bad timing, for leaving town just when Big Brother 9 is set to premiere. If he was home, I wouldn't be watching it. Ya, it's all his fault!!

So what do we think of this season's premise? "Til Death Do Us Part"

I'm not in love with the couples thing. Mostly because I don't think it was fair to ambush the contestants and stick them with "soul mates" they may or may not play well with. I realize that BB has become all about the twists, but this one seems over the top to me. Not fair and it has already led to some of the most overly dramatic moments in BB history (and that's saying a lot).

I will admit that usually the women drive me nuts, but I'm sorta liking a few of them this time. We'll see how it plays out. If anything, I want the energy of Angela...she's a rockstar so far...I hope she stays that way. And have you seen her booty? I don't generally look at girl's bums, but hers is stellar. And she seems to have been paired up with about the most perfect partner in the house, Adam.

Happily, the two teams that are up for eviction right now are the ones that NEED to go. The additional twist of the dating couple that immediately exposed themselves and caused much unneeded chaos makes me want to poke my eyes out. Thankfully I've been watching the shows on PVR and just fast forward right through the ridiculous arguements and self riteous bitch-fests the girls have been having.

I can't believe I'm actually taking the time to post about this. I have no good excuse, except I'm a sucker for bad TV apparently. So sue me.
