Big Brother 11 Premiere

Good Evening Big Brother Lovers!!! The time has finally arrived for the premiere of the 11th season of the best reality show on this earth: Big Brother!!

If you're on the west coast, and you'd like to see it NOW, I recommend you check out DreamAngel'sSite.

I'll be here blogging the premiere and publishing comments during the commercials...

We made it!!! Let's have a tremendous season, everyone!!!

Now, the premiere.. next up, the live feeds!!!

First up, Julie confirms the cliques and rolls the tape on the intros... we meet the houseguests as they receive their keys.

My best and worst first impressions:

Best: Ronnie - so sweet! - actually cried the moment he received the key.

Worst: Braden - far less impressive - "Surfing's better than sex. Mother nature doesn't talk back."

The HGs take the stage/steps in front of the BB11 house, seeing eachother for the 1st time. The Ronnie, Laura, Russell and Kevin enter first. Russell and Ronnie decide on the red bedroom.

Chima, Natalie, Braden and Casey enter as the 2nd group. Casey and Braden grab the other 2 beds in the lush red room.

No one's feelin' the "Splish Splash Room," but Jeff moves in there with group 3 to enter: Michele, Natalie and Lydia.

They all move to the living room for intros and First Lies:

1. Michelle played down her accomplishments, saying she's a lab assistant.
2. Natalie lied about her ago, saying she's 18, when she's 24.
3. Casey said he's 40 (instead of 41 - who knows)

We go to commercial with Julie hinting at the mystery HG, whom they'll all know.

When we return, Julie reveals how the twist - at least part of it - is going to work. The cool part, perhaps, of the clique twist is this: if a person from your clique wins HoH, you cannot be nominated for eviction that week. We get public and DR reactions to the twist from the HGs.

I have to laugh at myself... I'm typing away as if you're not watching the east coast feed. I'm gonna sit back and enjoy along with you, and post comments during the commercial!

The HoH comp has begun, and Julie tells the HGs that none of them will actually become Head of Household. I was wondering how they were going to give the BB Alum a real shot at it with immunity for the first week, and this is it!

They haven't actually seen the BB Alumni yet though, when we go back to commercial.

Enter BB10 Brian, BB8 Jessica, Cowboy and BB10 Jessie. Julie welcomes them back, tells them the clique they are aligned with, and that whichever clique prevails, they'll become a member of - and HoH.

Endurance Wedgie Comp - lol - Extremely higschool. With Braden as the last to drop from the Popular crew, as Russell and Natalie hold on tight, BB10 Jessie makes it back into the Big Brother 11 house as HoH - and he and all the athletes are safe for the week!

And now, we wait... in the last bit of excruciating anticipation for the Big Brother 11 live feeds to spark up for the season!!
