So far:
1)I'm predicting Matt as saboteur.
2)Rachel has a HUGE rack which will be fun to look at but man is she annoying.
3) Brittany + Ragan = Amy + Marcellas?
4) So far I like Matt, Andrew, Kristen, Brittany and Annie. Of course, that's just first impressions....
Is Matt the one that got his tooth brush during the black out?..cuz that was a little weird.
and The Soup moment of the night? When Rachel said she knew the guy was Jewish because he had a Yom Kipper on his head.
Matt's the genius with the tattoos. I think it was Brandon? Branden? who got his toothbrush.
I just noticed they've been staying away from Matt a lot during the saboteur stuff. Could be it means nothing, but I would think having a really smart person do it could be a good move...

Rachel takes the Prize for the Dumbest Comment EVER on BB..."Yom Kipper on his head" LMAO !!!!!! Looks like an interesting Mix...and the saboteur is a nice twist, to shake things up.
Well, as soon as Enzo nicknamed himself Meow Meow he lost me. Can he be any more stereotypical?
I don't want to see Brendan or Rachel leave yet. I hope something happens before eviction.
Not sure how I feel about the whole saboteur twist yet.

I don't feel the houseguests should have been told there would be a saboteur. It kinda ruins it because all they will talk about (for awhile) is who it is. Annoying.
It would have been more fun watching it if only the audience knew that part of the game.
I don't think they should have been told about the saboteur either. I've been watching the feed and all they do is make jokes about the existence of the saboteur, they aren't even taking it seriously. And knowing Big Brother, the coming "sabotages" will be on the same level of mediocrity as padlocking the door to the storage room.
Speaking of feeds, they have been dreadfully boring this year so far. They made a slip-n-slide and then used it for about an hour, and they just sit and talk (most of the time incorrectly) about other seasons. They all seem to think they are the most entertaining season to watch because they have "great personalities" and "nobody wants drama"
So who is up for eviction? Is the girl that got stuck in the caramel up? What a bone-head.
Rachel and Brendon are up. Of course, POV happened already, but I won't spoil what happens with that.
The ABSOLUTE smartest thing BB can do is to NOT have a saboteur at all. THAT would be brilliant - tell them there's one, have it mess with them, but just have production screwing with things. I mean, that's so unlikely, but it WOULD make things a lot more interesting, especially if they don't reveal who it is, let it get down to 4 or 5 people, and then up the sabotaging.
Somehow, I don't think that's what'll happen though.

Don't want Brendon to leave..he is the only EYE CANDY in the cast...ENZO is truly laughable! And what's her face stuck in the caramel! LMAO....what a dumbass!
That's what sort of made me think maybe she's the sabateur. It was like she wasn't even trying to get out.

This is my first time watching the live feed (from the beginning). I hate the way in parts it repeats the footage or audio. Does anyone else get ethat? It's like you are listening/watching it and then a few seconds later you hear/see the same thing again.
jennafan, I have watched the feeds for a bunch of seasons seasons and CBS (probably because of changes with Superpass) now has them in that browser-based format. I am sure they are still working out kinks, because the feeds have never been this sloppy. Lots of cameras changing picture size randomly and mics going in and out.
Jasonf, I think that would have been a great idea. There were so many things they could have done with the saboteur that would have been better than it is right now. I was thinking what would have happened if they told everyone that there were two saboteurs, so everyone would think they needed to find the other one. That would lead to some hardcore thinking that everyone was lying.
I almost think there has to be something more to the twist -- it's just too much like America's Player, isn't it? I just don't know that the producers are clever enough to come up with something as twisted as that!
So far I can't get into this season. I've tried to watch After Dark, and have already quit. I'm sure as time passes my addiction will grow as it always does.
I also think saying that there is a sabotuer, when there is not would be far better than really having one. We'll see...
For some reason, I suspect Annie as the saboteur, though I can't say why. Perhaps it is her fondness for pasty foundation and liquid eyeliner. She seems to be sabotaging her own look.
Poor Kathy. I have to admit, it was sort of funny watching her and Britney get stuck and sort of do this crazy slo-mo flailing. I can see how it would happen if you get too much of your body in contact with the caramel and you are tired out from the challenge itself. I actually got a little sad watching them struggle as it reminded me what the dinosaurs must have gone through when they encountered the La Brea tar pits in Los Angeles, watching their dreams of stardom slip away as they die a slow death while the giant Hollywood sign mockingly looms over them like a schoolyard bully in the late afternoon at the playground when all the teachers have gone home. No fame and fortune for big lizards! God's chosen are white heterosexual Americans who label themselves as Christians! Preferably, but not limited to, the MALES! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
But I digress...
I like Rachel, so she will probably be first to go. Ragan is going to be a drama machine. The whole coming-out thing with Annie just seemed so needlessly over-the-top. She appeared to mention the "bisexual" thing in the Diary Room rather flippantly, but then it becomes this huge dramatic private REVEAL moment with tears and hugs when she "comes out" to the gay guy? Sorry, but I didn't buy that. Now they are BFFs and forming an impenetrable bond because they share the gift of same-sex sexual practices. Please.
Enzo sounds like he's auditioning for Jersey Shore. He's got the nickname, he's got the accent, he's got the ego, he's got the vanity, he's got the ego, he's got the manscaping, he's got the ego, he's go the self-awareness and intelligence of a Ramen noodle, and he's got the ego. But most importantly, he wants US to know he's got the ego. He wants to be the Russell Hantz of Big Brother and I hope he achieves it. It would be so much fun to watch him talk about how awesome he is, screw everyone in his path, lose to his own boneheaded bullying strategy, and then be totally flabbergasted by his rather obvious mistakes. I'm up for that. Go Enzo! Take Rachel to the end with you!
Kathy's biggest mistake was criticizing Britney, especially in front of others, when she was the one who couldn't finish the challenge and looked like a pelican in the gulf of Mexico. She has some work to do to clean up that little mess, but it shouldn't be as difficult as the BP fiasco. She's the sheriff, after all.
Apparently, there is a girl in the house named Kristen. Huh.
Has anyone else noticed that the saboteur silhouette on the website is decidedly female? And that the padlock and tape on the photos were things any member of the production team could have pulled off? And that people stop being impressed by the mention of "Mensa" by the 90s? LAME!
So far, my favorites are Lane, because he reminds me of Andy Dwyer on Parks and Recreation. I don't think Andy knows what a brigade is either, but that's ok, because you're both unusually attractive. Monet, because her name is "Monet". And Rachel, because she has the potential to be the most entertaining. Andrew is slightly annoying, yet so cute, especially when he wears his Yom Kippur.
Looks like the summer for the Tool Brigade. Ugh. All they need is Mike Boogie to complete the macho tableau of self-important spermatazoa man-factories led by the testosterone infused mastermind known as..."Meow Meow".
Because "Kitty Kitty" would be too girly.

So glad Brendon won POV--want him to stay, the only one there with a brain. Although Matt claims he is a genius, haven't seen any evidence of that yet. So early in the show and I already can't stand a few people, esp ENZO. What a dope. If he says, 'Meow, Meow" one more time....more like Pussy! I have no idea who the Saboteur is,{Starting to get old already} take a wild guess and say Annie. I like the twist that the Saboteur has a Life long friend in the house, that really threw me. Tonight should be good, we get to find out who it is...
I was only half watching last night because I was finishing a book I was reading. So Annie and Rachel are now up for eviction right? What if the saboteur is the first one voted out?
I don't think the saboteur has a friend in the house. I think think he/she revealded that there is a life long friendship in the house. I think it's Brittany and Monet.
Yay....recaps from MisterMatt! Bravo, signor!
I dont enjoy anyone yet, but it's fun to see the flailing about in the first week. I dont think ANYONE is playing a smart game so far, so I'm hoping the ones not yet on the radar (who's Kristen?!) will actually be revealed as competent. Brendan was stupid to make such an enemy of the "dude" who put him up...no need to threaten the HOH.
Do the other players really not know about the "brigade" of four boneheads? They keep saying they need to keep it a secret. Please!
Matt, the only thing about Meow Meow you didnt mention was how heartbroken he'll be when he finds out that America hates him...just like the Nerd Herd! That'll be sweet!
wait..the saboteur said if you thought about it, it was obvious..Brittney and Kathy were X'd off on the wall. It was Brittney and Kathy, right? mother- daughter maybe?
and I thought Boogie winning the coup d'etat was useless.. so much for that twist
That was the first thing I thought - CBS must be kicking themselves. I almost feel bad for them - that twist was so hyped and just completely fell flat. Would have been better if it really was a fake-out and there was no saboteur at all.
Now, is Kristen really just THAT boring that she never gets any screen time?
ETA - just saw on zap2it.com that the HGs are being sequestered this year after eviction - starting with this week. Probably means someone is coming back...
