big brother . an open letter to marcellas

well my blog buddies over at ohlala paris just recently did an interview with marcellas reynolds to which i jumped at the chance to connect myself through paris to reynolds. so... marcellas responded with an email and this bb entry is for all big brother fans but mostly directed towards marcellas.

for those unaware, big brother is a reality game show where people are put in a house, cut off from the outside world, to compete in a summer long power battle to win a large money prize in the end. the game can be played a thousand different ways and is played around the world. after five u.s. seasons, now currently in its sixth season, big brother u.s. continues to gain an inebriated reaction from american audiences.

now here's my opinions on this current season as well as the all stars edition hopefully to air sometime next year.

big brother all stars

big brother all stars: i need to see roddy, james, and kaysar all in one house. i need to see marcellas, danielle and amy back for another round of show stopping behaviour. i need to see hardy, doctor will, and nicole back for an emotional round 2. i need to see alison and jun back for wicked game play. i need to see will wikle, jase and jennifer [aka nakomis] back in the house. and from this current season, i'd love to see janelle, of course kaysar, jennifer and of course james back for their house flipping gameplay style. janelle has yet to do anything big but she sure did call maggie and beau bitches to their face. that's an all star if you ask me!

"rachel, you're so beautiful. maggie, you're such a bitch." a drunken janelle says as she passes rachel finding maggie cleaning the kitchen table.

the reason why each person was chosen in my list is because they all played the game like no other houseguest. they each have changed the way new houseguests play each season. this is guytvblog.com's perfect cast. a total of 16 emotional and strategic players to which would create a highly addictive 24/7 live feeds obsession.

the prize? of course one million dollars. the show's length? the same as any past season. the veto power? here's this season's big twist idea.

i would love to have the veto winner of each week's competition to walk up to a glass box in the backyard area. inside there would be three veto boxes all sealed shut. the glass box is under lock that only the current HOH can unlock. each veto box is numbered. 1, 2, and 3. the veto winner then chooses one box officially, verbally saying outloud. once the glass box is opened, the veto winner takes their chosen box and opens it in front of everyone. here's the big twist.

either the original power of veto will be in the box. or the golden power of veto. or the diamond power of veto. all strategies each week will be fucked if someone wins any one of the vetos. i need to see people winning the diamond power of veto, taking themselves off the block and then putting someone of their own choosing up for eviction.

this is quite possibly [stroking my own ego] the best way to work in all 3 vetos in one season for the all star players.

america's HOH: one of the greatest flips in the all star season would be revealed the day the show premieres. after the all star houseguests are in the house, julie chen would reveal that during... let's say, week 7, that america will have HOH. that we will be given the chance to nominate 2 players up for eviction.

the houseguests won't know exactly when this will happen. after a live eviction, the houseguests will head outside to discover that america has HOH this week. the look of shock on their faces would be priceless. after america nominates 2 players, it's up to the houseguests to play for veto and to vote someone out, america is no longer involved. if the same rule still exists that six players must compete for veto, then that specific week the nominees would chose 2 players to play with them.

america's choice is boring now. let's make it a bit more interesting.

big brother 6 season

why is james a target?: i remember marcellas asking in one of the past cbs' house calls shows that if someone could call in and explain why james is such a big target. [or something to that effect]

here's why. just for you marcellas. when eric left, the friendship was created. if you weren't part of the group slash cult, then you didn't matter. james had admitted giving eric over to kaysar for eviction, the entire house knew this. and for some reason kaysar was hellbent in getting james to join his team when he was HOH. i'm thinking maybe he had an interest in james as a power player working for him, not against him.

james and sarah joined kaysar creating what we all know now as the sovereign alliance aka S6. here they agreed to not turn on each other. here james, i think, stated that no matter what comes back to the team from the other side that it was a lie and possibly made up.

well when maggie won HOH after eric's eviction, she started to bring each of the S6 alliance up one by one for a simple question. who would you put up? she knows they have to choose from their side because maggie was never going to nominate ivette, jennifer, april or beau. when kaysar went upstairs to the HOH room, he wouldn't give names. he wasn't about to "sell out" his friends.

janelle could just give a fuck and never attempted going upstairs to talk to maggie. howie + rachel were up there together at one point and made a deal to keep them both safe for next week. if maggie didn't put them up, then they wouldn't put her up next week. now howie + rachel didn't give out names as to who maggie should put up on their side but made sure that it wasn't them. she agreed to it and a deal was made.

when james went up there, she asked him to give her 2 names. he wouldn't answer her. she then said something about "if it's that difficult for you, then don't tell me." later he got up heading for the HOH door and just before he walked out, he dropped 2 names. i believe they were kaysar and janelle. maggie was shocked but nodded.

when maggie later told her maggots [aka friendship alliance] the news, she switched the names to howie and either kaysar or janelle. at this point she couldn't remember which names he said exactly so she wasn't 100 percent sure. but he said someone's names nonetheless.

now when sarah went upstairs to the HOH room, she "sold out" howie, kaysar and janelle as a team of 3 that needed to be broken up. she claimed that every night when she and james went to bed that those 3 were always staying up late plotting against james and her. maybe they were, maybe they weren't. point is, she "sold out" her own team by dropping names. sarah even told the camera in one cbs aired episode that she would do anything to stay in the house with her boyfriend. and she meant it.

when the maggot alliance started to reveal the information to kaysar's side, of course he was angry. the maggots were already upset with james for leaving their side and wanted kaysar's side to know how "dirty" james was.

everyone in the house felt betrayed by james and sarah. and when you add the bible swearing situation to the mix of "dirty" playing, james specifically named howie and rachel as the pair to break up. yes he changed his mind that maggie was still his main target but he made it known that howie and rachel are threats to him.

at this point, the entire house believed james would do anything to further himself in the game. and that james didn't believe or think both sides would come together to share information. but they did thanks to april + kaysar.

this is why james is hated and wanted out of the house like no other houseguest in bb history. he tried to play both sides. it's simple as that.

james in the final 3: of course this week with jennibitch as HOH, the maggots thought they could control james. we all know maggie doesn't trust james and never will [but for some reason she dropped kaysar's name when jennifer asked her to choose between james + kaysar]. i'm not that angry with [that fucking bitch] jennifer because she has just pushed kaysar into a more pop cultured idolized state that she can never match. unless she wins the whole damn game.

and yes, we all want to see kaysar come back to the all stars for a 2nd chance. then again, he could be put up first week. lol.

now about the friendSHEEP alliance thinking they made this big power move to out kaysar this week... um... no. this was all james' doing.

he used ivette and used the friendSHIT alliance to do what he wanted. these idiots fell for his emotions. maggie is the only one that of course didn't fall for james' tricks but has let her sheep make bigger targets on their backs. she's using them as well. it's hard for me to believe maggie would associate with these people after the game. but then again, what the fuck do i know. i'm just a viewer.

this was absolutely james' best move in the game. now all new targets have been created. rachel thinks she can use james to get the friendship out of the house. the maggots think they can use james to get the S4 ouf of the house. everyone wants to take james to the final 2 so that they can win against him.

i personally want james, beau and janelle as the final 2 because janelle has no target on her back. she's the last target on the friendship's side to evict. beau is the last target on janelle's side to evict. the final 3 will and should be beau, janelle and james. it's perfect. james represents his own team. beau represents the friendship while janelle represents her team.

my last thoughts: i know this isn't 100% personally directed at marcellas but it's about the topics i would discuss with him and gretchen on cbs' house calls [if i could get through the lines!] these are my thoughts on this season, so far.

marcellas, your exit on big brother 3 was tv fabulous. your devotion to kaysar is fabulous. your interview with eric was fabulous. i hope you will put ivette in her place once she exits the house because that would be fabulous. i hope to see will wikle shirtless on an episode of house calls because that would be fabulous. i hope beau replaces you next house calls season while you play all stars because beau is fabulous... just kidding!

and i hope of course you've read every single last fabulous word of this post. i always have loads to say about guys on tv! thank you again marcellas for your interest in guytvblog.com.

p.s. please give ivette this tee shirt when she exits the house! please...
