Big Brother 11 - JORDAN WINS!

So i'm like two weeks late in posting this, but I'm excited to say that Jordan won Big Brother 11. Though not the strongest player, I'm glad she won over Natalie. I will also give cudos to her strategy: she layed low for most of the game but won when she needed to, especially in the final HOH competition to secure her place in the final two! At first, I thought for sure she would lose against Natalie, but for whatever reason the majority of the jury just wasn't buying what she was selling. GO JORDAN, and I can't wait for next summer for another exciting (and sometimes irritating) season of Big Brother! :)

Flash Forward

So this past Thursday, ABC's highly-promoted and anticipated Flash Forward premiered. The show's basic plot involves everyone in the world blacking out at the same time for 2 minutes 17 seconds. During these blackouts, people saw glimpses of their futures, specifically what they were doing at a certain time of the day in 6 months time. The show was very interesting and kept your attention throughout the whole hour without a boring moment. I also liked how it started with a "what the heck is going on" moment and then "flashed backwards" to show exactly what happened. The only shortcoming seems to be the show's premise; can they make it last/stretch for a whole series? I wondered the same back when Lost premiered and it's on its sixth season now (also on ABC) so maybe they can find a way. I would definitely encourage others to watch the show if the preview below seems at all enticing...

BIG BROTHER 12!

That's right!, the reality competition has been renewed for a 12th season to begin next semester, as a new batch of houseguest begin vying for $500,000. In case you didn't already know, I've become a big fan of the show since the past few seasons and cannot wait for a new one next summer! The CBS show always has some tricks up its sleeve (from bringing together two siblings who were unaware of one another, twins playing the game, and this year the houseguests starting out in high school cliques), and I can't wait to see what it has in store for us! I think they should bring out a celebrity edition of the show to spark some more interest; the version has already been tried out in the UK's edition of the show.

p.s. with only 1 of the "good guys" left in the final 3, i'm rooting for Jordan all the way! The live finale comes on thursday, will def. be tuning in! (below is Jordan with her proclaimed "bff" in the house, Jeff who has been evicted)
