'Big Brother': Why did it have to be Jessie?

I am really not loving Big Brother so far this season. The high-school clique theme? Lame! And it's making the contestants act out in stereotypical ways. (Maybe that was the point, but it's annoying!)

And the idea of bringing back a former cast member is interesting, but why did it have to be Jessie? He's so annoying, so full of himself and just plain old difficult to look at.

How predictable it was the the guy labeled the jock sort of made friends with the offbeat artist and gave her hope and then twisted the knife and nominated her? It's like some late-'90s high school comedy that landed in bizarro-land.

I hope Lydia wins the power of veto. I don't like many of these folks yet, but she's OK by me, and I'd hate to see her leave so soon.

What are you hoping to see happen tonight?

I dont want to spoil it for everyone else but all I will say is that the power of veto is use tonight. If people want real time updates in house w/o getting live feeds jokersupdates.com is a good site. Who knows I might sign up 4 live feeds after thurs episode

The Head of Household is stymied in the Veto Competition in which the houseguests are forced to search themselves for some trace of humility.

SKK: Ha!

Jessie & Russell are setting themselves up to get a quick boot the way they are acting like they are running the house. As soon as Jessie is out of power they are going to have some very large targets on their back...

I hope Lydia wins the whole thing. She seems to be so nice a person.
