We join the Heroes tribe on their return home from their last Tribal Council. Tom and James have a polite moment where they clear the air. Immediately after, JT runs to Tom and apologizes for not sticking with him and Steph, claiming he did what he felt he had to when he realized they were on the bottom of the totem pole. I don’t think Tom bought it though. JT isn’t all that good of a liar, so…

Ow! Agh! Waahhh! That is how we join the Villains night. Most everyone complaining about the newest shelter’s uncomfortability. Everyone except Parvs and Russell who are giggling and flirting like High School crushes! This is a side of Russell we’re not used to. It’s sort of creepy, I feel. I want my evil Russell back!!

Rob, in his confessional, gives a great piece of advice for future players: “Watch how they sleep at night. Whoever’s sleeping next to who…will tell you who’s aligned with who.” He then goes on a rant about not trusting Russell, but this is something us viewers already know. Ha!

Heroes wake to a sort of somber, quiet morning. Rupert decides that bonding is now important for the tribe to grow! Little late on this realization, Rupy! Then out of nowhere…they catch another chicken! Wait! What!? What is this!?

Surivor: Chicken Island!

Coach then attempts to warn Russell that sticking with Parvati is a bad idea. He then tells us in his confessional that he believes Parvati to be a charmer. This episode is full of Captain Obvious moments, huh? Rob then joins Coach and Russell in their conversation. In his private confessions Russell retaliates, calling Coach a joke and Rob a wannabe boss.

Out of nowhere Randy returns from the ocean with quite a large clam. He goes to the shelter where everyone is chillin’ and asks if anyone is interested. Most everyone declines, saying they’re not hungry. Wait! What!? Not hungry!? On SURVIVOR!? Parvati tries a bite, but spits it out. So, Randy and Sandra eat the whole thing themselves.

Pretty much the whole game Jerri has been pretty quiet on her stance with Parvati. If she’s been Anti-Parvati, then it’s not been shown. Not until Jerri sees Parvati trying to flirt with Coach. Parvs is only doing so cause she knows Coach is gunning for her, but this simple interaction sparks something. Though it’s not addressed in the show, it seems obvious to me that Jerri is jealous and wants Parvati out for flirting with her man! Haha! The two black widows then take turns bashing each other in their confessionals.

Tribal Council starts off with people expressing their concerns on Parvati and her possible Hero allies. Probst then asks Sandra if there’s a leader, she calls Coach out about telling others to do stuff and vanishing on them. Ha! I love it! It’s just like Sandra and totally out of the blue! For my readers, I am a total Sandra fan. She and Courtney are open mouthed people. If you ever wonder how I am in real life…look at them. After a small feud where Coach is defending himself he points out they have the worst shelter in Survivor history, which Jerri immediately rejects. She’s right though. The shelter Rupert built in All-Stars really is the worst ever. Come to think of it, Jerri has never had luck with shelters, has she? In the Outback they had to give up their shelter for extra food, then rebuild it. They then had a flood, then rebuild it. She returns for All-Stars for Rupert’s mess of a shelter. And now she’s here. I bet she threw a tantrum at the shelter Moto had in Fiji. Haha!

After being voted out, Randy immediately threw his buff into the fire. I’d also like to point out that Coach, who has sworn an oath to fight for Randy…did end up voting him out. Guess this means he ran out of brain cells?

actually, its hard to blog about the auditions,so what i am going to do is to post some video about it..(temporarily, just for auditions, but if they have already moved to the next round, i am going to write everything about it, more detailed.)

the videos here show some of the best bits of the episodes 1 to 4  (EPISODES about auditions). well, to be honest, it was really a great show and i am proud to say that Filipinos really got TALENTS!! this is one of the remarkable reality TV show happened in Philippine TV where Filipinos’ talent can be discovered.(well, there are a lot of filipinos who have been discovered around the world, one is Charice  and still counting.)

Our Staff, if you didn’t know consists of the other Admin, Graham, webmaster of WoBB and two highly contributing moderators, Art and Joako. I feel the four of us are doing a very good job managing the forum, giving as much time as we can to it. A lot of us, including myself are eager to find someone telling us exactly what is going on, rather than just looking at eviction/nominaton results.  You can go to register at anytime, the link is posted on the forum under I believe it’s Register. We do indeed look forward to hearing from you.

Currently there is at least one topic in every one of the boards. We have just about every Big Brother show currently on in discussion, along with a few posts about the Survivor series. There is a discussion for I believe two Farm Series, TAR’s current season, a couple talent shows. There’s also discussions on Star Acedemy series, including the Arabian one on now. Also, we have a discussion about the Olympics and Eurovision in other topics. It’s a lot of fun; post what you know and think, and we’ll be happy.

If you have any questions, you can always make a comment here and either me or a staff member will post back. In some more exciting news, I have asurprise for current members, and for members who get in on the action now. I plan on opening up something I’ve seen for years, and am bringing it to the forum. You may want to check back later on the Forum to see what’s up. I promise, some of you will love what I want to make in adition to the forum. All you have to do is be a member in order to join.

See you at the end ofthe weekend to blog for TAR’s next episode. Have Fun o nthe forum! Here’s the link: http://forum.worldofbigbrother.com/index.php

So, Rupert goes on about hoping and seeing the team start to work together, when all we sw was the hero guys catch a bunch of chickens. Then, Candace goes and tells JT stuff about strategy. Then, JT tells Cirie that Candace doesn’t trust her. When Cirie confronts Candace, Candace began scrambling to find out who lied about her, not able to figure out it was JT. So, now we should expect to see JT to be more like a Villain.

Back at the Villains camp, some of the camp members begin to not like each other.  Parvati and Jerri don’t seem to get along, as Jerri says she feels like punchng Parvati in the face and Parvati calls Jerri an old cougar. A lot of people really seem threatened by Parvati, and also Jerri gives us the episode title, saying Parvati is like a virus. Also, Coach and Rob talk about not being able to trust Russell, but I think they are clearly underestimating him, since they don’t know him.

Then it was time for the next immunity challenge. The survivorshad to use a large sumo pillow, and try to knock one another off. The first tribe to eight points wold win immunity. In all irony, it was the heroes that ended up scoring ne point a piece, able to take all of the points, and win immunity. So, back at the Villains camp, everyone had two options: Vote for Parvati, and get a threat out or vote for Randy and vote out the weakest. At tribal council, Randy turned around and voted for Rob, sticking abullet at him, but ultimately, everyone voted for Randy, and he was voted off. As he was about to pick up his torch, he threw his buff in the fire.

So far, I was a bit surprised to see them vote out their weakest person, vurses voting out a huge threat like Parvati, but I’m glad that Parvati stays so she’s hopefully get Jerri out. I still think Rob is setting himself up for failure, since Randy seems sto know that. So far, we barely see Danielle and Courtney, but the heroes were fairly shown enough. Rupert has the right idea about team effort, the heroes just don’t show that  in competitions, since in this one, they really won a point in an individual mannor. So far,

I have high expecations for Russell and Parvati from the villlains, and I believe Cirie is in a good position, and I think Colby and Tom are going to come up from behind, and maybe get the girls on their side. I believe that I expect to see people like Rob, JT, James, Rupert, Jerri, and Coach to find themselves in trouble soon, just because they aren’t getting rid of the right people, either Parvati or Russell, or JT is stuck with the wrong people right now. Coach, was the one closest to getting Parvati out, along with Jerri, we’ll see if it’s too late. Here is an LLNMD list:

Love: Parvati, Cirie,

Like: Colby, Tom, Randy, Candace,

Neutral: Russell, Amanda, Sandra

Meh: Rob, James, JT, Rupert, Danielle, Courtney,

Dislike: Coach, Jerri, Tyson

The episode begins at night and on the Villains tribe. They have a horrible shelter. So badly that standing under a tree would keep them more dry. While everyone lies awake at night, Rob complains in his confessional about how he’s in a tribe with lazy morons. Oddly, he even compares them to his tribes from Marquesas and All-Stars. I’ll admit that those in All-Stars were indeed morons for practically worshipping Rob and Amber, but they were far from lazy. If you rewatch All-Stars, his tribe (Chapera) was very hard working. And if we decide to look back to Marquesas, yes his tribe (Maraamu) were lazy. And psycho. But not morons. He had very smart people in his tribe. He simply chose to vote them out and keep the dumb ones longer. I’m getting sidetracked though, so moving on…

Come morning time the Villains decide to destroy their shelter and build a new one. Again. For the 5th time. Rob decides he’s the boss and everyone else is his minion workers. But when Parvati gives her opinion, showing her Parvs charm smile, it stirs an arguement. Courtney jumps in trying to explain how the new design should be. This then leads to Randy commenting on how the waitress (Courtney) knows more than the contruction worker (Rob). I believe it was an attempt at sarcasm, but Randy is annoying and not at all funny, so it’s a FAIL. In an odd turn around from Samoa, Russell actually tries to calm things. What happened to the villain America fell in hate with!? I don’t want a goody Russell! I want to see the evil Russell!

We then join the Heroes tribe doing their daily chores in their perfect camp. Stephenie decides to be a nice little helper and puts breakfast on; crisp coconut. Rupert then puts his 2 cents in, explaining how it should be cooked. Cause you know…Rupert knows all. I mean, just look back on his shelter in All-Stars, right!? Total ownage there! (Hey Randy…THAT is sarcasm. Learn it!)

This sparks a war between Rupert and Stephenie. She goes on a rant in her confessional about how annoying it is to be told what to do, but when she asked him for advice on how to do what he just told her she was doing wrong…he said no. He doesn’t want to interfere. What!? Rupert! You just wow me, but not in the good way. Rupert then gets the chance to rant in his own confessional about how he thinks Steph needs to go. He has no valid reason. I just think he hates the competition. No, not in Survivor. In the hearts of America. Rupert is the most loved male Survivor of all time, according to official Survivor polls. Steph is the most loved female. Rupert is selfish and wants all the love for himself. Rupert! Sweety! America has enough love to go around, bro!

Back at the Villains tribe, Rob goes out for a water break. On his way out he admits to Sandra that he’s feeling weak and dizzy. While in the jungle, Rob passes out. Lucky for him Jerri was following. Not sure why though. Maybe she’s stalking him? She runs to get help. Medical then comes in and checks him out. There’s no response at first, but he does wake. They give him a bottle of water, but he can’t even hold it up to his mouth. After a full check out, getting hydrated and taking a break long enough to gain his strength Rob stands and returns to camp. But not before having an emotional break down with Probst, realizing he’s conflicted on how to play the game; the villain role that brought him here or the good guy he’s grown into through the years. Getting married and having a baby girl has made him more of a good guy and less of the villain we’re used to him being.

It’s then time for the Immunity Challenge!

Wait. No Reward Challenge!? I is sad now! But wait! It’s a combo! The winning tribe also gets a tarp, rope and nails.

Those who watched Tocantins should recognize this challenge. Each tribe has 6 human sized crates that they must run out then roll back to their mat, 2 members at a time. Once a tribe has all of their crates, they then need to place all crates in a specific order to form a staircase that will allow them to reach the top of a platform. If done correctly, their tribe name should be visible on the sides of the staircase.

Since only 6 members will partake from each tribe, Villains were asked to sit out 2 members and Heroes sat out 1. Courtney and Randy sat out for the Villains and Rupert for the Heroes. What!? I’m not seeing what Rupert is bringing to this game. He failed in the first Challenge, did nothing in the second challenge and is now sitting out of the third.

The Heroes totally dominate the first half of this challenge. They have a large lead and have decided as a tribe that JT is the “voice” of the tribe. Everyone is to listen to him and only him. JT doesn’t do that good a job of leading them. The Villains tribe place 4 of their crates before the heroes even get their 3rd in place.

The Heroes tribe backtrack when JT is looking for an “R”. Colby is the first to point at a crate that has an “R” and tells everyone to move it. Sadly, the crate he chose was already in its correct spot, so they essentially move it out of place to give it to JT. When JT realizes this he gets irritated. But not nearly as much as James, who begins to get rude and loud during the challenge. Still convinced Colby was correct about the crate, Stephenie tries her best to convince the tribe it’s the wrong piece. James yells at her in retaliation. “One voice! One voice!” By this time the Villains have already won and the challenge is over.

In a confessional, James compares Stephenie to being kryptonite and him being a super hero. Yeah. Sure you are, buddy.

Back at camp, JT tries to take responsibility for losing the puzzle section since he was the “voice” for it. However, everyone was like “No, you were perfect. It’s other people’s fault!” UGH! Not another JT worshipping season, please!? This is all followed by James yelling at everyone at camp for losing and not listening to JT. My nephew once threw a tantrum like that. His mother smacked him on his tush and sent him to his bedroom.

Not much occurs over at the Villains camp, except everyone seems to be trying to catch fish. To prove he’s mightier than thou, Russell tries catching a chicken. And succeeds! Where in the world are these chickens coming from!?

Chicken Count!

James then runs around telling everyone that Stephenie needs to be voted out. He uses the fact that she was the last of her old tribe in Palau (Ulong) as a negative. What happened to James? In both China and Micronesia he was lovable. Boring, but still lovable. Now he’s crueler than the actual Villains are!

Lines are drawn in the sand. It’s Colby/Steph/Tom vs. JT/Amanda/James/Rupert, with Cirie and Candice as the deciding factor. In hopes of convincing Cirie to side with them, Stephenie makes a deal that once it’s down to them 5 she’ll side with Cirie and Candice. Steph also points out that if she is indeed voted out tonight then Cirie will be next to go.

Cirie and Candice sneak off alone and discuss what they should do. They make it official that the 2 of them should stick together. Nothing more is really revealed in this brief moment, so let’s jump to…

Tree House Tribal Council!

Again, JT tries to take the blame for the loss, which fails. People are in love with JT too much. When asked about him being frustrated, James then attacks Stephenie. No lie! He flat out attacks her, first claiming that she is the cause for their loss. He then backtracks, saying he said “ya’ll”. But then Colby and Tom come to her defense, calling James out as a bully.

So it now comes down to Cirie and Candice. Will they side with Tom/Colby/Steph to vote out Amanda? Or will they side with Amanda/James/Rupert/JT to vote Stephenie out?

In the end it’s 6-3…

As she leaves, Stephenie says to the tribe: “Just some advice. Next time ya’ll lose a challenge a little less cursing off your tribe might help.” Per usual, James then needs to have the last word. He responds by telling her to keep her mouth shut.

After being voted out of the game, Stephenie revealed in an interview with PEOPLE on what wasn’t shown during the show. In the interview she reveals that JT (aka the “One Voice”) was stumped during the puzzle part of the challenge and wasn’t giving orders for most of it. Instead of standing and waiting, it was actually Candice who took the reigns to get things moving. However, when James started to get loud Candice went into verbal hiding, leaving Colby and Steph to receive James’s rage.

In a shocking interview with Zap2it, Stephenie reveals that not only did most of the cast not know who Russell even was…they weren’t even allowed to ask him about it!! Nor was he allowed to volunteer information! This surprises me because it shows that the producers wanted everyone in the dark, ensuring Russell had an unfair advantage in the game.

And that’s what happened in Episode 2. Leave a comment, telling me what you guys think. Whose side would you have been on? Steph’s or James’s? Do you think Cirie and Candice chose the right side or no? Why or why not?

1st: Jet/Cord – This team was completely look at as genius a their second bus stop, when they did something that made Jeff/Jordan & Caite/Brent miss the bus, I completely forgot. Then, they completely the llama detour with ease and whilethey knew some teams had almost caught up to their commanding lead, they still remained at the front of the pack, and eventually got first place. If they keep racing the way they did, they’ll be pretty good, and have so much potential to get ahead.

2nd: Joe/Heidi – They decided to make an alliance with Carol/Brandy, and saved them a spot during the bus ticketing, which got the detectives mad. They raced very closely along with Carol/Brandy and were almost always in second throughout the leg. They seem to be good with strategy and are showing as much potential as Jet/Cord and if they continue they’ll be just as good.

3rd: Carol/Brandy – They were pretty much racing with Joe/Heidi, and were showing themselves to be followers. I think they got lucky they got an early bus and still need to step it up if they want to get ahead, which they’re okay for now.

4th: Brent/Caite – They were one of two teams who tried to connect to the destination through another city, but missed a bus, and got very lucky to find another one. I believe they are showing they can show a potential to race, I’m not sure how much mistakes it takes for them to, you know, get eliminated.

5th: Monique/Shawne – They were on the third bus, carrying four teams, the next  few teams, the most teams. They are pretty much still good racers, they had no blunder other tham just sticking with their first choice, and not finding better flights. Whichever one of them did the roadblock, was indeed the one who got kicked in the head by the cow, where the episode title comes from.

6th: Jeff/Jordan – They are almost, kind of, in an alliance with Caite/Brent, claiming those two teams are very much alike. I would agree with that statement, but, who knows. I believe they are okay racers, but they certainly didn’t get lucky. Like Carol/Brandy, they basically stuck with one team, calling them allies, then trailin them. They actually had a hard time finding the pit stop, which they basically had fifth, then fell to an official sixth.

7th: Steve/Allie – They are pretty much this season’s under edited team, they haven’t been shown very much. We just get glimpses of them at the tasks, but no personal story has been developed between them yet. So, there’s not much to say about them yet. I hope we see more of them, though.

8th: Dan/Jordan – They really fell behind finding either theroadblock or detour, something like that. They have proven to be bad at directions, which isn’t a good thing. They don’t look like horrible racers, and they did their tasks okay.

9th: Michael/Louie – The only thing I remember about them is that they were upset of Joe/Heidi holding spots in line. Also, they couldn’t find the roadblock, so that put them down a lot. They don’t seem like very good racers, and I wouldn’t be surprised to actually see them gone next.

10th: Jody/Shannon – They ended up being the slow team to the line, and ended up last, basically because they caught the last bus, and didn’t get a chance to catch up and pass someone. There’s not muh to say about them either, as they didn’t add much to the show either. I will probably forget these girls were ever on the race.

Not much else to say. Not clearly a favorite yet. See ya Friday. Here’s an LLNMD:

Love:

Like: Jet/Cord, Joe/Heidi, Caite/Brent, Jeff/Jordan, Monique/Shawne

Neutral: Carol/Brandy, Steve/Allie, Dan/Jordan, Louie/Michael, Jody/Shannon

Meh:

Dislike:

Let’s have a quick introduction to our cast…

From left to right; top to bottom…Rob, Jerri, Randy, Parvati, Danielle, Coach, Tyson, Sandra, Russell & Courtney.

From left to right; top to bottom…Colby, Stephenie, Sugar, Amanda, Rupert, Cirie, JT, James, Candice & Tom.

In my opinion, Danielle and Candice are random, non-deserving choices to be brought into this game. Probst went on record to say that Danielle is a “villain” for voting Terry out after he helped her learn how to make fire in her original season. Making a single move at the F3 doesn’t make someone a villain, in my eyes. On the flip side, Candice is a “Hero” for wanting to mutiny to be with her friends. I don’t think that makes her a hero. I think it makes her a baby.

I’ve also noticed that Parvati is stacked with possible allies. Parvati has previously worked with James, Amanda, Cirie and Candice.

Then we have Russell. Hands down a villain. But he’s getting a fresh start! Filming for Heroes vs Villains ended on September 16th. Samoa aired episode 1 on September 17th. This means Russell played the entire season of Heroes vs Villains with nobody knowing who he is or why he’s there. Seems a tad unfair to me.

Onto Episode 1…

The episode begins by showing the castaways in helicopters and getting brief introduction confessionals of everyone saying why they’re back and how they’ll play the game. We see Rob being cocky, Sandra admitting she’s going to make up good lies, Russell plugging Google, Coach “feeling electricity”, Cirie comparing herself to a gangster Oprah, and Jerri giving herself the nickname Man Eater Manthey.

They then land on the beach in front of Probst where he badgers them with a few questions that clearly made a few feel uncomfortable. First impressions…Courtney stands there, the twig she is, looking like a chihuahua growling at someone’s ankle. It’s sort of adorable. Sugar’s hair makes her look like a poodle, while Sandra’s makes her look like a doberman. Then I spit my milk out when Colby makes a reference to how he’s heard of people naming dogs after him back when season 2 aired.

They rush into the first Reward Challenge; flint being the reward. To those who watched Surivor: Exile Island, you’ll recall this physical challenge. Two players from each tribe rush out to a sepcific area of sand to dig up a bag. They then fight over the bag and try their best to bring it back to their tribe’s mat. First tribe to 3 points wins.

Round 1 pits Cirie/Steph vs Danielle/Parvati. Cirie literally grabs Parvati by the neck at one point, dragging her to the ground. What happened to Cirie being a good guy!? Danielle scores Point 1, while Steph dislocates her arm!

It is based on the Got Talent franchise, a British TV format conceived and owned by Simon Cowell’s SYCO company. “Pilipinas” is the Filipino word for Philippines.After six weeks of searching for the best contenders all over the country, the much-awaited reality franchise Pilipinas Got Talent is set to begin this Saturday, February 20 on Primetime Bida. Brace yourselves as it showcases a wide range of world-class acts from the usual singing, dancing, and acting pieces all the way to the bizarre, hilarious and never-before-seen performances.

Pilipinas Got Talent will be hosted by Billy Crawford and Luis Manzano, while Marc Abaya will host the daily spin-off, Pilipinas Got More Talent. The judges of the show consists of Kris Aquino, who was earlier tapped for the hosting gig, backed out from judging at first^[3] but she announced at an episode on Showbiz News Ngayon that she has resumed her judging duties. She joins former ABS-CBN executive Freddie Garcia, and comedian Ai-Ai Delas Alas.

it will start tomorrow, at exactly 7:30 PM (8:30 pm on sundays).. and i can’t wait to witness how Philippines got its talent! ..

these are the hosts of Pilipinas Got Talent, Luis Manzano and Billy Crawford. Personally, i find them funny and well trained for this reality show.

Like Pilipinas Got Talent, as it is the first time for us, Filipinos to do the show, i am also new for this show to blog about, so i am studying it well first so i will be able to give the full details of the show. soo exciting!!(–,)

I thought I would steal this post as it is the 250th post on the blog!!!

Dan, who has been blogging with us since the blog started is not able to blog about all the shows that he previously did due to his current living arrangements. But don’t worry, Dan will still be blogging for us when he can.

I just wanted to let you know what to expect from the blog over the next few weeks / months. This is a summary of the shows that will be blogged.

The Amazing Race 16 USA
Dan is still going to blog this show. Although there may be some episodes that are missed.

Survivor 20 USA
I’d like to welcome new blogger Nemle. Nemle will be giving us his opinions on the survivor episodes each week.

American Idol 9 USA
Dan will be blogging this show when he can. I am also watching the show, so I will blog for any episode that Dan is not able to watch. As I am in the UK and the episodes are shown here a day or 2 after the US airing, any blog posts I make will be up a few days later than normal.

Big Brother 10 Germany
Holger has been very busy recently, which is why he has not been able to post as frequently. There is a discussion going on BB Germany over on our forum, so if you haven’t already done so, you can check that out.

Veliki Brat VIP4 Serbia
velikibrat started off blogging this, but his university studies have left him with less spare time than he thought. Hopefully I can persuade him to do a summary of the final and the show as a whole once it is over.

There are many other shows currently airing around the world that are not being blogged about. If you are watching one and would like to be a World of Big Brother blogger, please do get in touch with me and I will get you set up. The email is webmaster@worldofbigbrother.com

Looking ahead to the near future. Alexander will be joining the blog to let us have his thoughts about the upcoming Big Brother Family Bulgaria edition and Dan will hopefully be telling us all about Celebrity Apprentice 3 USA.

Thanks to everyone for reading the blog and thanks to all the bloggers for their hard work. All the bloggers love to hear your comments, so please keep the comments coming. Another can make a comment, you don’t need to register.

Anyways, from what I understand, Rob is pretty much made the leader of his Villains tribe. I was a bit surprised, I thought we would see like Coach or someone try, but it’s better to see Rob as leader than certainly Coach, for sure. Rob complains about how his tribe is horrible at working together around camp, claiming once again, he’s stuck on the baffoon tribe. Meanwhile, at the heroes tribe, Rupert and Stephenie claim they are each other’s threats, which kind of surprised me, I thought Stephenie and Rupert, probably two of Survivor’s most popular heroes, wouldn’t clash.

Then, a near-dramatic scenario happened: Rob nearly passed out, and Jerri got him nedical help, in which the medical team and Jeff Probst come out to investigate Rob’s medical needs. It appears Rob is under the weather, but doesn’t have to be checked out, so he’s safe. I was actually kind of scared, I thought Rob was going to be taken out like Russell was.

Then it was time for the immunity challenge, a challenge derived from the Tocantins season. The two tribes had to roll down blocks and stack them to spell out their tribe name. The Heroes had a good lead, and a good strategy, let JT, who played this challenge, lead everyone. However, Stephenie and James broke into an arguement, causing the team of Heroes to fail, and the Villains once again took the lead away and won immunity, along with winning a tarp for their shelter.

At the Heroes tribe, things seem worse, when James confronts the tribe about not listening to JT, and then he talks about Stephenie, saying she went outlasted her tribe, connecting it to the tribe losing because of Stephenie.  I don’t get the connection, and didn’t understand what James was talking about, I believe Stephenie was certainly heroic for outlasting th tribe, and I’m not sure why James attacked her for that.

So, Stephenie, Colby, and Tom are tight. Candace and Cirie are tight, and it seems like James and Rupert were the main rally towards getting rid of Stephenie. However, Candace and Cirie are actually the swing votes. I believe this is the third time Cirie became a crucial swing vote in by day six or nine, again. She certianly has skills. Stephenie, Tom, and Colby try to pull Cirie and Candace into voting for Amanda, the next weakest player. So, Cirie and Candace, the swing votes, are talking about voting for either Amanda or Stephenie.

Tribal Council occured, and tension erupted between the Stephenie, Tom, and Colby alliance and James, as James once again points out it’s Stephenie’s fault for losing the challenge, because Stephenie always loses. Again, clearly not making any sense. So, it was indeed time to vote. It was Amanda who recieved three votes, and Stephenie who recieved three votes. The last two relevant votes were castedfor Stephenie, so over a 6-3 vote, Stephenie was voted off. As Stephenie left, she makes a harsh statement that got James telling her to shut up. Tom defended Stephenie.

I thought this episode was very great, I really was on the edge of my seat almost. It was obviusly dramatic. We saw a dramatic way of how real this show is, by seeing Rob needing help, and we see conflict in both tribes. I believe that there are two big potential good blindsides: James and Boston Rob. I know, but this is All Stars, it’s time for some of these players to try to step it up, because it looks like Rob could be running another show right now. He’s been proving he can lead the villains around camp and challenges.

I’m also noticing that there is clearly a bond between Jerri and Coach, that I clearly didn’t expect. I also notice that Randy seems more positive, and not so angry at the world. Also, Russell claims he’s still kind Russell, but didn’tadd that much to the show, other than catch a chicken, which made his show off his contribution skills. I’m still excited about this season, and hope to see more of it.

Twelve of these American Idol hopefuls were on my top 24 list I made the other week. That’s not bad, for a prediction. I’m still glad to see Jermaime, Chris, and John on the top 24, despite the fatc I didn’t get to see Chris andJohn perform. I did catch a litle bit of some of them performing. I remember Jermaine, Mary Powers, Angela Martin, and everyone else I’m forgetting. I think when next week rolls around, I’ll try to put the performances down as best as I can, but I won’t remember everything said. Also, I heard that Ellen was (surprisingly to me) a good edition to American Idol.

Please note that I’m not actually taking time to watch the results shows, as I don’t think it’s neccessary to watch someone take 50-something minutes to see who gets eliminated. I will make one post, probably on Friday’s after (if I get a chance) to watch Survivor and blog about Survivor. I’m trying to also cut down on my tv time, also to mention that the next three or so results shows actually start on Thursdays, where I’m trying to watch Survivor. So, yes, expect me to blog what I can once a week.

Edit Note: It has been reported that Chris Golightly, my audition favorite, had been disqualified from the Top 24 competition, due to confusion of a previous contract. Therfore, I’ll have to pick a completely new favorite from the start of the semi finals. A guy named Tim Urban will be Chris Golightly’s eplacment. You can read about Chris Golightly’s disqualificatin here:

In the very beginning, Phil instructs to the teams they’ll have to take public transportation to their airport, where the first three teams to arrive get on the house-ahead flight. That flight ended up delayed due to mechanical errors, in which Brandy was praying for. Then, teams were given their first destination: Santaigo, Chile. Once there, teams had to complete the roadblock: Teams had one member walk a cable line the size of a football field. From there, teams had to take a goldokla-type bus called a funicular to recieve their next clue. Then, in theroute marker, teams had to carry paint, brushes, and ladders to Paseo Templeman where they had to paint a small block of paint on the wall of a house, finishing off by foot arriving to Palacio Faburizza.

1st: Jeff/Jordan – My surprise of the night: Jeff & Jordan actually got first place. Congrats to them. They were one of the three teams who got on the first flight, which got delayed, forcing them to switch tickets to the next light, the flight the other teams were on. They pretty much kept a nice run, as Jordan even kept the lead during the roadblock she completed. They were running past Caite/Brent, the team closely paced with. I was real surprised that Jordan was good. Her prayer was answered: she says she didn’t want to mess up, and I don’t think she did. They can potentially be good competitiors here, as well as they were on Big Brother. However, the sad note is this: Jordan thought the entire time she was going to China, instead of Chile.

2nd: Shawnee/Monique – I believe they were the one of the three leading teams on the delayed flight, proving that the delay didn’t even affect two of the leading teams. This team wasn’t shown as much, but Shawne did this roadblock. Along with prayer answering from and to Jordan and Brandy, they had a different religious insight: one of them were crossing the street with the ladder on them, saying “it’s like carryign a cross” and “I’m gonna be like Jesus”. They ran a solid leg and took a decent second place, moving fast on every task, I believe.

3rd: Jet/Cord – Jet/Cord were pretty much at the back of the pack the entire leg. They clearly had to have found their house to paint almost instantly, considering they were at the bottom three pack, then moving up to the top three. One thing I remember is that Shannon clearly likes them. They too were shown in bits and pieces, but didn’t add much pizzaz to the show in this episode. I love how they were like ninth to complte the roadblock that Cord completed, and then move up to third place, given there was a penalty involved.

4th: Steve/Allie – They moved along with the race easily, except I’m not sure how they got fourth, when they were seen painting the worng house, a house that probably didn’t need a paint job. They weren’t too rememberable either, as now I guess it’s hard to show eleven teams racing than it is to show less than five teams racing. I don’t know what to expect from them.

5th: Joe/Heidi – Joe came out to show a competitie spirit towards him, and I believe we’ll see more of that next episode, if I get to watch it. They seem like they could be a good team, and I don’t think they were bad this race, andthey probably ran solidly in the middle of the pack. So, they showed up at the pit stop at fifth place, just a second behind Steve/Allie. I thought for sure those two teams would be a tie.

6th: Carol/Brandy – I believe they could be one of the more competitive teams, considering we saw Brandy pray her way to wishing for a mechanical failure on a plane she ended up recieving answered and satisfied about. Then, Brandy was on the roadblock, and she didn’t start off to well, but didn’t back down, and completed the race. Then, while we saw them enough in the beginning, I don’t think we saw much of them after the roadblock, so I’m not too sure how they exactly landed into ixth place, but they did.

7th: Caite/Brent -  Caite/Brent started the race in the front of the pack, as I believe Caite was second to complete the roadblock, just minuted behind Jordan. However, they recieved a penalty after walking to a clue rather than taking the Funicular. So, they got a 30-minute penalty that landed them into seventh place. I love how Caite mentions she looks for redemption, but she kindo f didn’t do that right offthe bat, recieving a penalty. Oh well, there’s always eleven more legs to improve on.

8th: Dan/Jordan – Jordan, or who ever is the gay brother, seems like he’s kind of the manipulator. He began reminding teams of who Caitlyn, Jeff/Jordan are, and he wasmocking Caite. He could be a potential guy who ould be fun to watch. They started the race pretty stable, as hey were in the front of the pack. However, they dropped a paint brush, andfailed to find it. Honestly, I’d take a fifteen minute penalty rather than spending too much time finding a paint brush. Thye did indeed recieve a fifteen minute penalty which dropped them from a potential fourth place down to eighth place. So, basically, karma bit them.

9th: Louie/Michael – They don’t really seem like they’ll be good racers. Given we barely saw them, and they never seemed to have much luck, or showed any potential to catch up, they could probably be out pretty soon. I don’t remember anything they really did, so there’s not much to say abou them in this episode.

10th: Jody/Shannon – I was really surprised they got tenth place, I wanted to see if they could do a whole lot better than that. I would say right now they’re on the same plane as Louie & Michael, not showing much luck or much abiltiy to catch up. Not even Shannon who completed the roadblock was seen struggling, or even pulling ahead. Maybe something else put them down, or it was the fact they were last to get a bus to the town, Valparaiso.

11th: Dana/Adrian (ELIMINATED) - After failing two times to get across the cable line, Adrian really struggled with his fear of heights to notbe able to overcome this obstacle, and Phil eliminated both Dana and Adrian before arriving to the pit stop, making them the third team to never make it to a pit stop, (Bil’al/Se’eed, Eric/Lisa) even though they weren’t a part of a twist.

That’s it for this leg, hopefully, I’ll see you some other time!

Well, everything had to come to an end. And for this season, it ended with a bang!!

This Double Up Season made the public anticipated not only for the show but as well with the people involved with the show.

I think that the Philippines, is the only country with the Big Brother franchise to celebrate and end every season very special that it always came to the point of bringing the final housemates to a special tournament place and leaves the BB house earlier before the final show starts.

For this season, the Finals was held at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium at exactly 9:00 pm (with the countdown to start through out the whole shows of the ABS CBN Network) and welcomed the public with a Chinese and Valentines Day Theme. (What a great idea and theme! Perfect combination!)

The opening number was a very great sing and dance number from the main host, Toni Gonzaga with the Double Up ex housemates as her back up dancers. PBB Double Up Big Night intro

(for a quick view of the whole Big Night Show, here are the videos:)

PBB Double Up Big Night PART 2

PBB Double Up Big Night PART 3

(other videos will be posted soon..)

The international singing sensation Charice sang the “Pinoy Ako”, theme song of PBB since season 1 (for regular season, except for those special spin off edition like teens and celebrity). She sings the song while welcoming the entrance of the Big 5 to the stadium. Second performance was from Bugoy (Pinoy Dream Academy season 2 2^nd placer), to welcome Johan, (the Big 5 still wear a blind fold making them clueless about the happenings on the stadium right at that moment.). third performance was from Jay R of PDA season 1, 2^nd placer to welcome Tibo. 4^th was Teddy of Rocksteddy Band, to welcome Jayson. 5^th was Mark Bautista, to welcome Paul Jake. And lastly was Yeng Constantino, (grand star dreamer of PDA season 1) to welcome Melai. The Big 5 was brought to an improvised confession room in the Ninoy Aquino Stadium (isolated from the public’s roar!). then after Yeng, all the performers gathered to once again sing the theme song of PBB.

After that, Big Brother talked to the Big 5 and asked them to get ready for their last appeal to the public on why should they vote for them.

This was also the first time for PBB to have an all around the Philippines (nationwide) participation of the supporters for the Big Night. Supporters from different areas of the Philippines gathered in the places where the Big 5 belongs. Like for Tibo, his supporters were all in the Cagayan de oro screaming his name. (aside from those who were in the stadium and their homes). Tibo’s supporters were assisted by the season 1 ex housemate Cass. For Jayson, his other fans, (aside here from manila) gathered at Mindoro, hosted by Uma, season 1 ex housemate. Uma even said some intriguing statements for the fans of Johan. He boastfully said, “Where are the fans of Johan? It seems that I can’t hear them!! Oh – Oh!” ..(that was very funny yet boastful indeed!) for Paul Jake, all his supporters gathered at Cebu, hosted by Nel, season 2 ex housemate, (one of my bets for that season). For Melai, hosted by Ruben (Celebrity Big winner season 2), her other fans, supporters and co – workers gathered at General Santos city. (her place was the farthest place among the Big 5.)

After appealing to the public, each housemate were given a cheer dance especially for them. (very elegant indeed!)

Another remarkable performance of the night was from the international star (I think Graham is familiar with him, for he was known first at Britain’s Got talent). It was Charlie Green. Who sings the love theme song of MELASON, “Can’t take my Eyes Off Of You”. He was also had a duet with Sheryn Regis for the singing of “Pinoy Ako”. While the ex housemates performed the two of the controversial dance tasks of Big brother, the NAKED FAN DANCE AND INSOMIA Tagalog Version respectively. Lastly was the Indian song leaded by Harish, the House Intruder / House Guest / Fake Swap Indian Housemate.

After the said, performances, Big Brother gave his final and very touching messages to the Big 5.

Well, time runs fast and the voting line was soon closed and the final percentages of votes was revealed. (Believe me, it was really an unexpected result!)

But before the announcement of the winners, the preview for the upcoming shows were revealed and spectacular performances were done to break the tension for a while. First was RUBI, the latest Filipino Remake of the Latin American Soap Opera. Secondly was the first ever PILIPINAS GOT TALENT (Got Talents’ Philippine Version, which i would also blog about, starting feb. 20) and Lastly was the revelation for the public of the new season of Teen Edition Big Brother. With the new title, PINOY BIG BROTHER, TEEN EDITION CLASH OF 2010.!! (oohh…so excited, but first, I’ll try my luck again to join for the new set of auditions..please pray for me..and hopefully, they will notice me this time..lol.)

Aside from the previews, other performances were recorded, with Rubi’s Main Cast, the international dance group, JABAWOCKEEZ, and lastly was KIM Chiu, the Big Brother

Teen Edition season 1 Big Winner. They did that for the promotion of the upcoming shows.

After the performances, the results were given and here’s the final percentages of VOTES.

The housemates were assigned with different letter codes symbolizing HEART.

H – 7.69

E – 24.97

A – 32.08

R – 27.31

T – 7.94

Wooh…at first, I was really nervous and excited about the names behind those figures.

Then, the first announcement was for the 1^st ever 5^th Big Placer of PBB. It was TIBO!

He was warmly welcomed by the public when he came out of the improvised confession room them walked to the stage.

It was followed by the announcement of the 4^th Big Placer, who happened to be JOHAN!!!!!! Though, I wanted it to be him for that place, I was disappointed for Tibo, who only finishes the last place. (though I am expecting it.. lol)

Next was the 3^rd Big Placer, who was JAYSON!! I was really shocked, for what I expect was it would be Melai, (for the reason that the Big Revealed showed Melai as the 3^rd placer, but definitely, I am very happy!!). He was greatly welcomed with all of his supporters who really roars and screamed his name through out the stadium!.

The 2^nd Big Placer was announced, and it was PAUL JAKE!!!! Yes!!! I as sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo very very happy with that!!!

And there you have it, the BIG WINNER is none other than MELAI!!!..  after the announcement of her name as the latest title holder, she was welcomed with a special treat of BIG BROTHER and the crowd’s roar making the whole stadium in an undeniable noise of happiness!!! (it came to the point that even the hosts were unable to talk clearly because you cannot hear anything except for the crowd’s cheer and roar for they love MELAI so much!!)). I can’t explain it how but surely you can watch the video how it was happened. All I can say is that it was really a great great Big NIGHT!!!!

TO SUM UP ALL THE EVENTS OF THE BIG NIGHT, HERE ARE SOME OF THE PICTURES TAKEN. (courtesy of http://pinoybigbrother.multiply.com)

Well, the season had already concluded for this time, but the happenings were not yet done. THE BIG REUNION WILL BE ON LAST SUNDAY”S EPISODE OF PBB.

While the afternoon show of PBB (PBB DOUBLE UP UBER) will be still on air for one more week.

Well, for now, BIG Brother’s HOUSE will be closed for the mean time but definitely they have made a promise that it will opwn again on SUMMER!!! And I will blog it for you guys!!

Another and last/final LIVE episode for the primetime was held for the Friday’s episode, dubbed as The Big Truth. This was for the housemates to answer the hot issues of public against them through the interview with the King of Talk, Mr. Boy Abunda. Questions were from the public sent through the e-mail. It was also tagged with a line of “The Big 5 VS the BIG Questions of Public”.

1^st was Paul Jake with the opening question of “What’s the biggest disadvantage of being rich in the Big Brother House and the whole question.” Well, I am not interested with him, so, I forgot his answer,(actually, all of their answers were forgotten by me, but only the whole process and nature of interview was the unforgettable one.)

P.J was also asked about his greatest learning in the BB House. And the last question was if he took drugs, and I was really surprised with his answer! He replied with a YES! He explained that he was just to try it because of the peer pressure and the intention of exploration and discovery. (However, I was disappointed with that.)

Second was Tibo, with his opening Question of “Are You Afraid of Paul Jake?”

Well, I must say that he is, but he constantly denied it and said that it was just happened that PJ did nothing wrong for him. He was also asked about his faithfulness to his wife, and he revealed that he was been tempted to have a relationship with another woman besides her wife.

Third was Johan, with his opening question of “How do you find Gays?” it was known, before he enter the BB House, that he had been to many indecent proposals with the least amount of P50,000 pesos. Well, he also explained that he was nothing against with gays and found them friendly and also a human that should received enough respect as well.

Though the first three interviews were all serious. Well, the MELASON love team broke the tension and pressure. (lol)

4^th was Jayson, with questions about his real feelings towards Melai. (It was really a funny interview, so funny that I forgot all the details! Lol!)

Last was Melai, whom I could say that it was the “Fast-talk” interview. Melai talked with a machine gun rhythm and it was really funny too!.

Many questions were asked, but I almost forgot it for it was indeed an entertaining interrogation!…

All of them was also asked about their own reasons why their other contenders should not win and be the Big winner while defending themselves for the title.

Well, this is the last episode of PBB DOUBLE UP for primetime, and tomorrow is the BIG DATE ON THE BIG NIGHT. I am so excited and I hope that MELAI would win!

This is my final bet for Big 5 palcings.

BIG WINNER – MELAI

2^nd BIG PLACER – Jayson

3^rd BIG PLACER – TIBO

4^th BIG PLACER – JOHAN

5^th Big PLACER – PAUL JAKE

Well, at first I like Johan to finish with the last place, but I found him as a better person that paul jake(for what I have found out on the Big Truth)

Good Luck BIG 5

Thanks for reading!!
