Flipit: I have to start off by saying I am so sure you date girls that look like this, Schoonie. Don't front, but I admire the whole positive thinking thing you've got going on. (Schoonie: "What? I'm charming!" (Crickets)) Sorry, I got lost. Daniele is a pretty blonde who works at Hooters as a "server". Ooooh, I predict tension with Jen. Being a "server" at Hooters is like being a "dancer" in a strip club, and I like people who can make things sound better than they really are. For example, I'm not a blogger, I'm a Professional Television Enthusiast. I know the Professional part is stretching it, but all you need to make that title work is compensation, right? I get paid in Milky Ways. Payment is payment. Get off my ass.

Dustin is a 22-year-old salesman who lives in Chicago. He is single.

Schoonie: I'm going to go out on a limb and say that he's probably not an undershirt salesman. Seriously: buttons. Use them, Simon Cowell. He also says that he's good at selling himself to complete strangers, or something. So the "whore" portion of "camera whore" is covered, at least.

Flipit: Dustin's says he's a salesman and he's good at selling everything,
including himself. Good! Teach Daniele to do that and get the poor girl off her roller skates. Dustin seems like the nice gay guy, so I'll temporarily root for him. But seriously, button up your shirt.

I ain't buyin' what you're sellin'. Button up.

bb_eric.jpg

Eric is a 27-year-old "talent management assistant" from NYC. He's also single. Noticing a pattern yet?

Schoonie: He says something about having charisma and then talks abou.....zzzzzzz. Sorry. All his "charisma" just put me to sleep. He has these kind of awkward motions throughout the preview, which means he's going to be REALLY uncomfortable when it comes time to dress like a flower and soak yourself in pollen or whatever so that you can enjoy your weekly ration of Poptarts, which you will have to stash before Janelle eats them all. (Seriously, I love her, and she is super hot, but every time they showed her, she was eating! She was like a bitchy, sexy locust.)

Flipit: Back off Janelle! She's healthy (?). Eric thinks his "charisma" will have people rallying behind him. I'm already behind you, Eric, if only to blow spit wads into your hair. He says that when he goes to cut someone's jugular, they'll never see it coming. Cuz all they'll be able to concentrate is that scrunched up lab rat face. The Busted Mug Offense is a strategy we haven't seen used yet. Expect Eric to make BB history.

Busted Mug Offense

bb_jameka.jpg

Jameka is a 28-year-old school counselor (say goodbye to your job after this!) from Waldorf, Maryland.

Flipit: She's only been around other black people her whole life, so she's on Big Brother for more than just the money. She's there for an education about white people. Don't they have Friends reruns in Maryland? I like Jameeka, because she seems nice and down to Earth, and I can't wait to see that look of "Holy shit. White people are wack" look on her face for the rest of the Summer.

Schoonie: Well, Flip, while I appreciate her desire to expand her horizons, anyone who's like "Big Brother is a learning experience" immediately makes me a little cautious. That's a little like going on a date with a girl who won't stop talking about her cats. Also, is Big Brother the place where you can examine the white person in their natural habitat or something? All of a sudden the BB house is the West African Savannah of white people? Maybe she saw this season's Real World Road Rules Challenge credits and got the idea from that. However, she seems really fun, and I get the second-best first impression from her. First place goes to the chick who wasn't in the preview at all.

bb_jessica.jpg

Jessica is 21 and from Haysville, Kansas. Two contestants from Kansas! This year's theme is now Big Brother: Tornado Alley.

Flipit: I totally forgot about her until I watched the clip a second time, which is a pretty bad sign. Jessica does twelve cutesy poses in three seconds and tells us she's sweet and loyal until you stab her in the back... then she's your worst enemy!
Oh, Jess. If you get a knife in the back on this show, it's too late to make enemies. You'll already be dead. All I can suggest is coming up with an offense strategy. And maybe some kind of a personality. Cute top, though!

NOT a spoiler - just supposition: Lawrence, KS is home of Kansas University and Haysville, KS is basically a suburb of Wichita, KS, which is approximately 2-1/2 hours south of Lawrence. I'm guessing that both Kansas girls are from the Wichita area, but the one listed from Lawrence is just going to school here. They probably listed them that way as a pitiful attempt to hide that they are one of the enemy pairs. And yup, I'm from Lawrence, I have absolutely no idea who she is (it's a town of about 100,000) and I wouldn't know where to look to find out information about her. However, if she mentions anything Lawrence-related on the show, I'll try to put it in context if necessary. Love this show. Can't wait for more BB TVgasm coverage!

OM goddness I love you two together already and Flipit is right Schoonie... you should not have given the spoiler away like that.. there are ways to hide them a litle better so the average reader who cannot look away can use a bit more self control as we come upon a possible spoiler..... learn how that works please.....

This household looks like what we have been waiting for... wall to wall crazies....
You guys need to recap your tour through the new house.... just to entertain us while we wile away the next 6 days......

OMG
OMG
I am soooo f---ing happy it's Big Bro time! I can't wait!
This year should be good...I am excited to see a new crop of faces after last year's (kinda lame) "All Star's".

It's going to be interesting to see how the houseguests use their drama with their enemies in their favor with the other guests.

Oh yay! I can't wait for BB to start. I'm trying to convert/corrupt as many people at work as I can to continue this obsession with me so that I have an excuse for gossiping about it all day long!!

Not sure I like the idea of the rivals twist. But if the America's Player choices we get to vote on are cool (long shot), that could be a fun little twist.

And Schoonie... Lisi in the house? Now THAT would be hilarious! And annoying. Ah, the possibilities.

OMG OMG....I am so excited. It's sad, really, that I get so excited over a tv show such as this. I am ready for it to start so I can read the recaps here!

Well Schoonie, you are brilliant. Apparently Evil Dick works at one of the L.A. bars co-owned by Boogie. For all our sakes, let us pray that they don't share a personality.

Flipit and Schnoonie, you are officially the new B-Side and J-Unit. Look forward to the summer.

I am a friend of Schoonie's, in fact he is one of the groomsman in my wedding this fall, so I feel the need to stick up for him for a second. I think I know which member of his dating history he is referring to when commenting about Daniele, and I have to say she does bear an uncanny resemblance...at least in that picture. Schoonie...I'll take large bills only as payment for having your back...or one kick-ass wedding present...you pick.

Bam! Take that, flipit. And I totally did not pay her to say that. Yet.

Glad to know there are other people out there that are actually excited that I have another 21 hours of BB to watch this summer becasue I have Showtime. Boy, do I need a life.
