It is officially summer, which only means one thing: Big Brother. For those of you who know what I am talking about, I applaud you. For those of you who don't, get with it. Here is my personal recap of the first week.
As always, the first week is a little uneventful. We are meeting the houseguests, finding the first HOH and evicting someone who probably doesn't deserve to leave. The weak and the strong are found, alliances are made, and usually everything falls apart after a few more weeks.
When first meeting the houseguests, I thought it was a weird bunch. There are a few famous siblings however. Vanessa (from BB17) and Cody's (from BB16) siblings are competing this season, along with 10 other new players. However, always expect the unexpected. Four houseguests are prior contestants: Nicole, James, Frank, and Da'vonne. I don't know how I feel about these veterans, as they were not memorable to me. In past seasons, they have had Evil Dick, Danielle, Mike "Boogie", Jeff and Jordan come back to the show. To me, those are true veterans.
This season, they are all split into teams, with each having one veteran and three newbies. As always, teams that are created by Big Brother, are not always permanent. The vets have aligned together, and the newbies are sticking together. That means (hypothetically) it is 12 against 4. However, those 12 will self implode.
With the three competitions that ran during the two-night premier, the oldest of the crew was evicted. Glenn couldn't handle the physical nature of the competitions, but who really cared who left this week anyway?
Here is my opinion and predictions:
Nicole will get into a showmance with someone, along with the former NFL cheerleader. I think it is the worst decision for the 12 newbies to stick together because there are too many of them. They don't know how to stay calm and collected. They will start to stray from each other, throw everyone under the bus, and eventually try to get each other evicted.
There are a few people I don't like already, and I can't figure out why. Paul, Jozea and Bronte give me weird vibes. However, Mama Da', Zakiyah, James, and Paulie will be my favorites of the season.
Let's hope it is a season filled with drama, backstabs, and more drama. Remember, expect the unexpected.
