it sucks that the vote always seems to be personal rather then who deserves it. At least Ryan won some money and now he and jen can live in peace without women who are below her calling her names anymore, you go jen you are better then all of the posters here put together.

I forgot to add thats just my opinion and I have been told im allowed to have my own.

I really liked Adam winning the competition over Ryan. I was sure wondering if he even had a chance as the interviews were not going well. I wonder if the BB staff ask the players to try and give the impression they are voting for the opposite person they plan on voting?? And what was up with Sheila? Adam said it right that he got her to the final three......she did not get him there.
Like always, I enjoyed the show and your blog HD. thanks.....

James came in first! Woohoo! Don't be too bitter now Natalie fans.

Chelsia, Josh and Shelia could take lessons from me on how to be bitter! Everything has gone my way this season until the very end when James fans stuck a knife in my back by giving him $25,000! At least they could have let me see Shelia asking how much the 2nd place favorite juror prize is. The answer, Shelia, is the same as for 3rd place in the main game -- nada.

From HD - LOL!

I think Sharon is a very classy person. I voted for her as the bet jurior. I was disapointed in the finale. I would have liked Julie to show Nat all the rotten things Matty did to her behind her back. He was a big disapointment to me...She did get him good with the Karma bit ..I was proud of her.

As far as the winner...I didnt really care. I hope BB Summer is better than this year. I saw Erica, Janie and Dick in the audience...didnt see our house call host ...looking forward to feeds of the after party.

ty for a great season HD!!

From HD - I also saw Bunky and Eric in the audience as well. I wish they would have lingered a bit more on the audience because I always love to pick out who's who in there.

you go jen you are better then all of the posters here put together.

And every other poster here, individually, is better than you.

Josh was so, whats the word, oh yeah, such an ass. His attitude sucked and we saw King Dustin come out when he was telling Adam not to yell at him! Go home Josh. This was the season of the hookers, or at least lookalikes/actalikes, as Jen, Chelsia and Nat all looked like they just got off the street! Mostly Chelsia!. Horrible outfit. And Matt, was Matt, still thinks nothing he did was wrong. He just doesn't have a clue! Alex looked good, but his worth went downhill to me when I heard he is dating Danielle! Yuk! Was that Jacob that jumped on Adam when he came out the door?
Glad Adam won. Thought it would be Josh being the only hold out, but did think maybe Shelia hadn't calmed her ass down. Ryan made a huge mistake not taking Sharon. Too bad!! Teeheeeee. Never liked ya Ryan!
I am so ready for BB10. Tomorrow wouldn't be soon enough after this cast! Not one of them was worthy of BB this year.
Did ya see Janelle, Eric, Bunky and Ericka in the audience? Am so over these people. Except Will that is!!
Here's hoping BB10 has a great diverse cast, and House Calls gets someone besides the Donato's on it! Your 5, 10, and 15 minutes of fame are over Donatos!
In your post HD, you said Adam won $250k.???
It was a toss up for me on the jury vote. Voted for Nat and James.
Night!

From HD - Um, yeah, I fixed that. LOL! Oh, and I'm rewatching the show again right now and just saw Dick and Daniele in the audience as well.

I tried to vote for natalie from two different computers in my house tonite and it wouldnt let me. Did anyone else have that problem. It did let me vote for james though.

From HD - I couldn't vote for anybody for the first 20 minutes and neither could anybody else on a messageboard I was on -- and it didn't matter who you were trying to vote for. And then by the time I could vote, CBS' site was slow as all get out but I was able to get a few votes to go through for James.

I'm gonna leave this site until July (I think) with these words, 'you go gray'....

Good show, but where were the guinea pigs? LOL I saw ED, Dani, Janelle and Wamber. Amber was right below Janelle a few rows and they showed her as they were fading out early on in the show. She had her hair pulled back/slicked back. Totally not an Amber look. I missed Eric and Bunky. I'll have to go back and look for them.

Great blog this year HD. Looking forward to BB10.

From HD - I know! I was hoping we'd get one final look at the guinea pigs And didn't Sheila look great tonight?

I hate when its over. I love this site. I will miss you ! Thank god only until July.

Worsted Dressed: Chelsia and Jen
Best Dressed: Matt and Chen-bot

Best DIG: 2nd place goes to .... SHELIA!! haha

Ups to Natalie- a ray of sunshine as always !!

final thoughts: I wish the finale was longer. I want to see more reactions and questions from Julie

Im sure I will visit this site daily and wean myself off.

SEE YAH IN THE SUMMAH

I haven't watched the show yet, but I hate it when they let the East Coast vote, and not the West Coast. Couldn't they have announced the vote Wednesday to give us all a shot at it? I tried to get in anyways. I actually had to type in the web page, because I couldn't access it from the CBS website. By the time I got on, the vote had just finished.

I think Ryan's big mistake was not keeping Natalie. Ryan didn't really have a chance against Sharon either. Getting rid of Natalie, instead of hanging with her until the end probably cost him $500K.

The finale was great everything went like I wanted to. That 6-1 was perfect and deserving.
The dress that Loud Sharon had on was nice. I hated Natalie's cheerleader dress. Jen's dress was ugly too. James' outfit...what can I say but I'm glad he got the 25gs. Can't wait to see and read interviews.
Now on to BB10.

I'm still bitter about James being voted out. (Ha! I know I need to get over it.) My sister and mom asked me who I wanted to win tonight and I simply said "James". At least he got $25,000. I just hope that if BB does another All Stars season he's in it.

I don't think Adam or Ryan deserved the money. I don't believe for a second that Adam will give any money to charity, but then again he might. He probably wants to get back in their good graces after calling Autistic children retards.

Ryan is just gross. He thinks he's hot stuff and he's not. He and Jen deserve each other. I'm embarrassed that they're from Ohio.

All in all, I think they're both bumbling buffoons.

Thanks for great blogs! I'll see you for season 10!

Glad to see Adam win over Ryan. Just do not like the guy.. and his biggest mistake was not taking Sharon to the final 2.

Voted my fingers off for James in the short amount of time we had. Wonder if he will still get his stipend too?

Thanks for your work this season, HD. Looking forward to any wrap party pics you post. Other than that, I'll see you come July.

WOOHOO!!GO JAMES!! Had to get that in! haha, Boy those people were tough! I really didn't expect it to be a 6-1 vote... WOW!! I think ryan had his tail tucked thinking he was a sure VICTORY over baller!OOPS!! Well I wanted to take the time to once again to say,"THANK YOU HD! YOU ARE SIMPLY THE GREATEST"! And i do mean that," Silly Hamsters has always been my all time favorite" thanks for your dedication and posts w/video clips, pics and links etc!! Looking forward to BB10 with the silly hamsters family!! Please let us know as soon as the bb9 wrap party vids, pics, and interviews start comming in!! Oh and I also saw Amber in the front...go figure HAHA!

Gray- you are so clever saying the exact same thing I said

Fashion ratings...

Worst dressed - Ryan! He has nice button down shirts in the house. We've seen them yet he chooses a black t-shirt and jeans? heh

Best dressed - Yes, HD. Sheila looked classy tonight. The little black dress is always the best choice and hers wasn't up to her hind end, like another little black dress tonight.

I hope you can get the video like they had last year that they played at the rap party. I'll keep checking for it. :-)

***Every single year, my biggest disapointment in BB is the length of the finale show. I mean, most other reality shows will have a 2 hour finale show. Those shows, you see every week for one hour and then have a 2 hour finale.
Yet BB, we see on tv 3 times a week plus the afterhours on showtime and some people also get the live feeds. Yet, only a one hour show. There are so many more questions that could have been asked, and so many more things that could have been revealed. It's always just a let down for me. ***

I always try not to get too into it but always end up into it anyways. On to next season in July. :-)

From HD - I know! I wish the finale was longer too. Even 90 minutes would be better!

I'm glad Adam won...nice to see CBS found a way to throw James some money (like there was any question as to who would win). I tried voting for Natalie a few times but it wouldn't go through...hmmmm!

Chelsia looked like she was ready to board the red eye to Vegas, straddle a pole while tossing a few back.

Sharon...wasn't she wearing that outfit when they were questioning the jury?

Josh's vote really didn't surprise me at all. Neither did his DIVAish behavior.

Way to Go Adam....Bring on BB10

Gray- you are so clever saying the exact same thing I said

Quite so. How terrible for you that you had to feel the sting of my wit. Do you always hang out where you find the company so beneath your station?

Thanks for another great season HD. I'll always wonder if Adam would have picked Ryan over Sheila to be in the final 2 if he had won that last HOH. Maybe that was part of his plan: Keep the blood off his hands and stick to his word if he has to take action. It will be interesting to see his reaction to being fired. I hope there are cameras rolling when Natty finds out that everyone on the planet, including her family, know about the BJs. I saw Amanda talking to her on stage and then Natty pulled Matty aside and said something top him. He had that "caught in a lie" look. Or maybe that's just wishful thinking. Thanks again HD. See you this summer.

Just wondering what Adam will think about giving $100,000 to the Autistic after the IRS gets through with him? Thanks again HD. See you for BB10.

Did you guys notice the dry cleaner's tag on the bottom of Adam's shirt? How about some attention to detail Adam? You are on national television.

Good Show Tonight!

Yes, ADam deserved to win so I'm very happy for him.. I hope that he decides NOT to donate the 100K to the United Autism Organization. They have thrown him under the bus for him using a medical term that does appropriately describe autism! This outcry of whinners does NOT deserve Adam's good heart, fame or fortune! Adam please find another cause which will appreciate you.
To the foundation, that fired Adam... shame on you and I look forward to you returning the money to Adam as you've made your decision! Back off the bucks!

The best part about tonight show was seeing Sheidevil get close enough to the money that she can taste it similar to final 3 but not close enough to touch it 2nd place as America's favouite. There must have been alot of single mom pitty votes... Oh booo the f hooo Sheidevil.. get a job! We're tired of your begging!

SHEIDEVIL~ No, I would read you book if you gave me a copy! There is NO integrity in your bones... your son must be totallly ashamed and ready to disown you!...UGH No, playboy doesn't want you... you're looking like it's time for some cosmetic surgury...!

Natalie: Good luck in the future... you should have won the game but everyone knew that you were a strong player...! Be strong and learn how to read people better. You're too nice and others take advantage of your goodwill. Your paintings are awesome.. I look forward to buying one soon... You'll hear from me!

Cheers until July...! Thanks to HD for allowing such an open BB forum!

I think Ryan shoulda won but that's how the votes go the better people (See Danielle lastyear) who win more stuff in the house are never the people who win the 500g's. So i guess all you should do is act dumb and float by and you will win the big money not the person that actually won things.

90 minutes would be just about perfect. Otherwise they might have had to ask Sheila more questions and we would have had to watch medusa personality come out while she bitched about something else.

Patricia - gray did not say the "exact same thing" you said. He said that each and every poster here is a better poster than you are. On this I have to agree with him. You are even a worse poster than he is himself! (sorry gray couldn't resist one last dig for this season ;) )

I too was unable to vote, and when it was announced that James was first and Sheila was second I was elated and confused respectively. Envisioned gray throwing things at his television and cursing the rest of america for their votes though!

It was nice to see Adam win convincingly over the bread truck and what the heck was up with Jacob rushing Adam when he came out and jumping on him?

Was that Diane in the audience as well sitting behind Julie? Maybe it was her twin sister but it looked like her with longer hair.

Have a great off season HD and everyone else. Catch you all on the rebound.

From HD - You have a great off season too! :)

A "few votes" for James HD? Come on... we all know James came in first for the $25K because you personally voted for him 487 times. LOL. And Sheila came in second nationwide with 12 votes, none of which were from Gray.

Dress I liked the most: Sheila looked awesome.

Dress I liked the least: Natalie (but only cuz I can't remember what Jen had on because I was too busy noticing how much weight she'd put on since leaving BB. (but that's only IMO Patricia!) Maybe it was pregnancy weight from Ryan knocking her up on the toilet seat in the water closet. (Only IMO Patricia!) And come to think of it, she might possibly be the type who would think she'd need to solidify her relationship with Ryan after calling him a racist by getting pregnant with his big brother baby. (OMG I can't stop myself Patricia!)

Worst colors: Natalie and James. I hate pastels.

I find myself indifferent on Adam winning the money over Ryan. Adam played a good game but I think Ryan's was better. But I probably would have been indifferent about Ryan winning it as well. One thing's for sure. Ryan put the nail in his coffin when he told the jury he was going to buy Jen a nice present.

Well HD...after taxes, Adam will only receive $250K on his doorstep from DHL. So you weren't far off.

So will Adam try to get the Chenbot to join his stable of babies tonight?

Gray, I have one last extremely important question to ask you regarding BB9: How the hell do you type in italics on your posts!? I can't get anything to come out in italics, even if i type it somewhere else and paste it into the post box.

Bye Toots, Diff, Sandic, Claypo, Joy in WI, Gray, and all the other people on here I get a kick out of. I'll miss you. :)

And HD -- Next to Daniele Donato, Sheila and the Scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz, I'll miss you the most of all. :) Seriously -- I just luvs ya baby.

Until July!

From HD - Do a google search for italic tags in HTML and that's how he does it. ;)

first, i am glad that adam beat ryan handily. ryan has such a high opinion of himself that he thought he could beat adam. ryan is truly an idiot. part of the game is having the people who vote like you. last year no one liked dick or daniele, they disliked her more.

second, it is soooooo sweeeet that james won america's choice. yes adam won 500k, but his only competition was ryan. america liked james the most out of the seven even though all his secrets had been revealed.

third, yes the fashion choices were questionable, but it looks like they only had the clothes they came in the house with to choose from. seems like cbs would want them dressed up. last year, i know the jury wore clothes that we had not seen before.

fourth and finally, the season did somewhat blow but natalie's eviction and james' jury win did redeem it a bit. love your blog--see you in july

Thank you so much HD for keeping us informed. I look forward to any pics or videos you can post for us. I was surprised Sharon voted for Baller and not Ryan. Oh well, they both played a great game. Chelsea and Nat looked like tramps and Jen couldn't keep her dress up. Sheila looked great. Allison, ugh! The clips they played were so funny. I agree, I wish we could see more than an hour of the show. I hope James rides on with out Chelsia. She definitley has anger issues. Bring on BB10!

Good show tonight, but as many have said, much too short. Would like to have a finale like Survivor where they talk at length to the jury but also to the ones evicted (voted off) to catch up on what they have been up to since they were on the show. Little different with BB since the show is going on at the time, but the first group still our out and moving on with their lives.

Glad Adam won. SHE really needs to get a clue, still all me,me,me. Blech! Chels was just as nasty in the comments tonight as she was on the show, family must be so proud. Glad James won the $25k maybe he can buy some other clothes. That pink shirt has seen better days. Josh - ugh, very full of himself. Yes the crying scene and reactions was funny, but Josh is not a nice person.

Which leads me to a close. HD great job as usual. Love to come out here every day to see what you have for us to comment and ponder on. Gray, thanks for defending us against a recent rude "individual."! And much thanks to so many of the posters here who have given me a chuckle or three, along with interesting opinions, to name a few, diff, clay-po, gregor, gray, grog, toots, Joy in WI, love-in-chaos, SuzieQ, sandic, coleen with one L, and many more.

Until July 13th, Take care all, and I'll ride off
into the sunset singing "Happy Trails to you, until we meet againnnnn!"

Glad to see Adam win, and especially like that Ryan only got one vote. In the clips that they showed tonight, after the juror questions, Ryan had a smirk on his face when Adam was going off, on how he thought, the questions were tough. I really think that Ryan thought he had won, at that point. I do wish that they would have the BB finale like they do Survior, where they devote a whole hour to talking to everyone, that would be so interesting, watching everyones reactions, when they fnd out different things that happened through the season.

My thoughts...

* Of the final two, I'm glad Adam won
* I voted for James to win the juror money :)
* Chelsia's outfit was horrible...makes me sad, because I used to really like her
* Alex looked fantastic tonight!
* I was hoping for more gossip once the voted out houseguests came back who had been watching all season...two things is all we get? Lame!
* So HD, you think James and Chelsia stay together or are they already done?

Thanks for another great season...I can't wait to kick off the fall season with you!

I agree with Steve's post, that the Jury segments must have been edited to show very little support for Adam (including Sheila). I was surprised as well that Sharon voted for Adam, as well as Matt and Natalie (who I thought were closer to Ryan). I think the anti-Jen factor had something to do with that.

I am glad that Adam won and I'm glad that James got the $25,000 for audience Jury award.

Jen's boobs exceeded anything I've ever seen on network TV. Very impressively massive. Still holding a grudge against Allison seems very petty to me and Allison (who I didn't like on the show) actually showed a lot of class.

Natalie (while looking like a hooker) also showed some class with an upbeat outlook. Sharon also came through as a good person who will be able to get back to her real life without suffering any long term consequences for her time in BB.

People who look like they are going to need some big time rehab after the wrap party: Matt, Joshua and Chelsea.

My final thought on BB9. I hope Ryan gets to watch the show and sees Jen's comments on him being a racist. I don't see how he could have a long term relationship with her after those remarks.

ARGHHH! FINALLY wrestled the laptop away from my pootie cat, Weenie Boy - he was trying to IM the GPs and the stuffed fish to set up a date. He REALLY likes those GP gals! He's always had a "twin fantasy". Don't know if they would spurn the affections of a Maine Coon or not. I suspect he was considering inviting the bass as the first course.

Gray!! Congrats on having a sister - you never told us you had an "evil twin"!! Give Patricia a hug from all of us! She makes you look so reasonable, hon. LOL! (SEE! I can be nice!)

I loved that James won the AC juror's thing - smush it in all their faces, James! Go for it! And did you notice that he almost knocked Chelsia down when he was jumping over her to get to front when it was announced?? Her Momma needs to tell her to raise her necklines and lower her hemlines - NOT the reverse or she'll end up with a cumberbund. I thought Sharon and Sheila looked great, as did Allison and Matty. Jenn and Ryan looked tacky - what a match made in heaven. Natty? Well, she was gNatty. And cheerful and shiny.

Love everyone's comments tonight!! You all rock (except perhaps for Gray's evil twin, Patricia, IMHO) and I will miss you greatly!!! Gregor, BenF, Gray, Recca, Verity, Sandic, LisaS, ClayPo, who am I forgetting? - oh for heaven's sake - you know who you are!! I love the sparring we all do!

Weenie Boy is so depressed - the GPs aren't answering his IMs or emails. I'll try to nurse him through his depression somehow. It's going to be a tough couple of months, though.

Thanks for all your exhausting hard work, HD!! You've got to know we all adore you!! And WB says to give you a "high paw" for the season!

Personally I would have voted for Adam for the same reason I think everybody on the jury did. It all came down to how much everyone hated Jen. Ryan should have tried to seperate himself from her somehow. She is a huge BITCH. Did you see how fast her leg was swinging when she confronted Allison? Shouldn't she have been over that by now?
It was all her fault for disclosing the relationship the very first week. And she certainly spent a lot on self tanner for her TV appearance tonight(It looked to be about $50,000 worth...sorry Ryan), but if she was so worried about being on TV you think she wouldn't have gained so much weight and actually worn a dress that fit. She looked horrible and had to keep tugging at the top of her dress to keep it on. She did say in her letter to Ryan that all she was doing was sitting in front of the computer 24/7 watching him. Guess that wasn't a lie. I'm guessing the computer is in her kitchen. It was also amusing how she was the one standing front and center, blocking out Ryan at the end of the show. I'm sure she thinks she will be famous now. I do think that Ryan will see it as Jen's fault and totally blame her for the loss. I predict they break up as soon as she spends his money. And also there is no way she is going to let him go to that premier with Sharon. I bet somehow she goes in his place.

jBKB-You're comment about retards being a medical term that describes autism is not correct. Most people with autism are not mentally retarded at all. In fact, they are very bright. Please do your research. I am glad that Adam won and hope that he sticks to his work about donating money to an autism charity.

Wow... Patricia, you got cahoonies, girl.. I know it's already been said but you damn near triple-dog-dared Gray to open fire... and he's got an army behind him, whether they're posting or not. Are you Jen's mom?? Grandma??? Not much intelligence goes into a statement such as your first one.. dare you be calling me, as a poster of the female kind, a woman below Jen??? And you know this HOW? All of HD's posters put together?? You certainly have the right to your opinion of the hamsters - they signed up for this abuse - but show HD and the people who make this site great because of their differences in opinion some respect. I think you should audition for BB10... don't change your name... and wear a Jenius II tank top. We'll know it's you.

I wasn't a huge Ryan fan - didn't hate him, didn't love him - but I give him kudos in the jury questioning (Chelsia's) for standing behind his love for her knowing it could (and probably did) cost him the big bucks... That's what you do when you love someone. Patsy (may I call you Patsy?) I think your girl Jen could take some notes...

I think with the start of BB10 should come a "Gray's Hamster Posts for Dummies" book with an autographed copy for you-know-who..

Will say more later..but my thoughts for now...

The voting for "best HG voter" was fixed...I knew from the beginning James would win...And all my votes seemed to not go through...oh well, I don't care.

At least Ryan didn't win the big bucks!

Both answeres of what they would do with the money, was a CROCK!.

I wanted Jen to toss out that FAT ass, Ryan on air...think it happen later...only HOPE so. Ryan IS a BIGOT!

People that are "losers" like Ryan, hate others..and are such paranoid. Just glad he LOST.

If BB10 doesn't have better people...that WILL be my LAST season.

Am SO SICK of the losers the casting director chooses.

Maybe I'm too old for this program, and Live Feeds. Let alone BBAD!

I HATE the scrum of the earth winning such big bucks.

Can we please have "real people"???

We all wait for the "next season", then are uunhappy. I didn't see BB1 thur BB5...From what I read, the 1st shows had HG's that DESERVE to win.

If that's true, Hope BB10, comes back to a better winner!

--I'm ECSTATIC that Adam won. I feel he was very deserving of winning. ALTHOUGH this is a competition and I would have voted based on how well they advanced themselves in the game---the lying, manipulating, winning, throwing, plotting, whatever means that individual used to survive everyone else. I feel that what they're going to do with the money should only come into consideration if the last 2 both played extremely well & you need a tie breaker or something. It's not fair to think that you are only worthy of winning if you're struggling with something or a single parent or because you've won things earlier in the game. Are you not supposed to try your best? You have to lose throughout in order to be crowned winner at the end? And as far as the struggling, if you should win just because you NEED the money, then they should call it "Big Brother for the Needy" so that way only people who NEED the money can audition for the show instead of others who just WANT the money and just want to enjoy a new experience! It really disgusted me the way Sheila played the game. Props to her for it getting her to the final 3, but she threw the fact that she was a "struggling" single mom out there left, right, & sideways which is funny because in the beginning she swore she wasn't gonna do that. How dare she think she should win the money over anyone else just because she's a single mom? Those other houseguests are not to blame just because her nudey pictures didn't make her enough money to get her through her golden years but ya know, that's what careers are for. (And I have been a single mother by the way & while it was challenging both financially & emotionally, I never once thought I deserved a handout just because of the decisions I had made with my life nor would I have played that type of game on any tv show). But that's just me!

--I thought Jen looked rather busty but other than that, she was a cutie. It's interesting that strangers are still mad at her for what she did to Ryan & he's totally forgiven her. If he's not mad at her anymore, then why in the WORLD is anyone else wasting their positive energy on it??? Does anyone else have to go home with her?? That would be a NO. And the nerve of Chelsia actually insinuating that because he forgave someone he loves for doing something really stupid he doesn't deserve the money!!! What in the hell does his taste in girlfriends have to do with this game?????

--I really thought that when Julie was talking to Nat/Matt, she was about to show some footage of some of his trash talking her or something maybe even worse to out her lies!! Oh well, I guess I won't get to see the look on her face after all once she sees from start to finish how she really behaved. And she just had to throw out one last judgemental comment & this time about karma. Has anyone told her that her actions are going to come back get her as well? And I don't think that Matt was all that bad to Nat and the only reason I say that is because when you're throwing your goodies in someone's face long & hard enough, the other person is bound to give in eventually, and when you CONTINUE throwing it in their face and attaching all of that "soulmate-stalkerness" to it, you're bound to cause the other person to become PARANOID & ANNOYED. Duh. She tried to use her sexuality to keep her death grip on Matt & to try to make herself popular in the house. When does that ever end well?

--I am really shocked at Josh's donkey-like behavior seeing as how he was in one of the "losers" chairs. It's really hard to like him sometimes. It was obvious that Adam was not screaming at Josh or anyone else that that's just how he gets when he gets real emotional & wound up, but Josh haaaad to jump on his high horse as if he had sooo much power & try to embarass Adam. Hello?! Josh is just ONE vote & Adam's winning alot of money REGARDLESS. Bitter is not a good look on you, Joshie!! Yuck

--I didn't think for a second that Natalie was gonna be voted the fave juror, but I'm not surprised Sheila got 2nd. I thought she might win it. She played that single mom card damn good & plus, she's the first cougar to be on the show to have a hot background & make it this far in the game so I know alot of America gave her props for that. I'm really glad James got it & it's interesting that the majority of BB America loves James so much. No doubt we're (James fans) the reason BB tried so hard to keep him in the house. He was a huge source of entertainment for so many of us. What does that say about us as viewers? Does it say that we like gay porn & inappropriate and offensive tattoos & rebellious behavior & that's what's cool & that's what's entertaining? Or does it simply say that we are gonna like people regardless of if they're gay or have performed homosexual acts for money & has a foul mouth & plays mean pranks? We're gonna see past the skin & hair & accept their immature antics as nothing more than empty, temporary entertainment & like them for their personality & their character instead. Have we really advanced that far or do we just love to watch "bad" people? Hmmm.... I really was not trying to get deep there, but that thought came across my mind when I saw how the audience was rooting for him tonight & then when he won. We really love James! Not EVERYONE, of course. I definitely know that. But there are a heck of alot of people who do & I couldn't help but wonder why? Is it for the same reasons I do? Something else? Why is James so popular??!!

That's what I love about this show. As much as it pisses you off, it draws you in & connects you with people you might never come across in your life. You get to know them. You play with them. You play against them. You feel for them. You laugh with them. You cry with them. You yell at them. You defend them. Man! I am sooo ready for BB10 so I can get on this roller coaster ride all over again! Thanks HD! Your site is by far the best for great Big Brother conversation and I especially love the regulars!

Well, since it couldn't be Sharon or James - I'm glad Adam won. The way the jurors dragged him through the ringer I didn't think he'd pull through. Glad they were able to see through to his good game play (and past the crazy eyes!)

Best dressed - Matt.
Worst dressed - Chelsea. Nasty, no one wants to see that.

For all her flaws, Natalie really has class.

Can't wait for Season 10. I hope they have a few older people. Hey, I'm thirty something - REPRESENT!!!

Thanks for this post, HD! I love your insight into the gameplay.

Ok, so before I got Patricia side-tracked, I really just wanted to comment that I wasn't a Natalie fan throughout the season, but she was awesome in putting Matty in his place with her Karma comment! I hooted and hollared and "You Go Girl'ed" her, and then told my DH that that was the best thing she's said all season! Perfect!

I agree Sheila looked really nice and that Alex looked.. oh, god.. I think I might faint... Whew!!! Joshuah is pompous but so entertaining... I loved watching him and missed him after he got evicted. GO JAMES!!! Did I mention... GO JAMES?!! Yeah, the wardrobe needs an overhaul FAST, but I really think he's as genuine as they come when it boils down to it. I agree that CBS probably threw the favorite juror thing out there knowing he'd win, and he deserved it! Good for him! I'm glad that Adam won... he's an odd duck with habits as disgusting as they come, but I think he's a really sensitive and good guy, just with some really strange traits! Not only because of the charity promise, and NOT because of anything to do with Jen, I think the money will be better spent with Adam then it would have been with Ryan, and in my opinion Ryan's gameplay wasn't as good as Adam's was. Throwing comps is strategy and risk in itself... nobody handed that to Adam, I think he earned it (although I do believe he threw that last comp to not have to choose between She and Ry) Anyway, I'm happy for them!

Can we all write CBS with requests for a longer finale with more hamster interaction and clips like tonight's Adam and Joshuah clip? Q and A and Exposé!! That would be awesome... BB should have more juice than The Bachelor and they get 2 hours!! I would have loved to see Sharon's reaction to the guinea pigs' DR session!!

Thanks so much for your site, HD... you are truly one of a kind and we all appreciate you...

I agree the show was too short.

Also, think the clothing choices were horrible.

I don't think it was fair that those of use on the West Coast couldn't vote for the favorite juror.

I'm pretty sure that Alex isn't actually dating Danielle, but what would be wrong with that if he was?

From HD - They are dating. Check out his MySpace (link is in my sidebar).

Look who's crying now. Natalie is finally getting a dose of her own medicine, and she don't like it. Bitter pill, huh, Nat. No matter who goes home, Sharon or Natalie, Natalie is not going to win the money. Might as well put her out of her misery. Ryan needs his mouth washed out with soap for all the lies he says he hasn't told. That's a lie within itself. He's lied to Josh, he's lied to Sharon, to James, to Sheila, to Adam, and probably to Jen. He'll play hell to take the money also. Adam's my pick on the leftovers still in the running.

Called it. HD, Thanks for keeping me abreast on all the happenings in the house when I wasn't able to watch the feeds. You're a peach. See ya in July.

First time poster. I'm glad Adam won, have never liked Ryan or as I call him, big, fat, lazy, loser.
Not sure of all the love people have for James though, he's not America's player, if you remember, he was only voted back in by the house, not the viewers, and that was because too many other HG were frightened it would be their enemy in the box.
And secondly, he only won two POVs, one which consisted of drinking horrible concoctions, to which I'm sure he's used to drinking already.
Let's not forget, how despicable he was in the house, hypocritical, disgusting, and such a cry baby when things didn't turn out his way. I find him to be an awful person. Not fond of Matt either, but he's right, that boy really wants attention, hence the tats, the hair, etc.
Nor did I care for Josh, he's quite the queen. Too bad he has to be the "stereotypical catty gay boy".
As for Sheila, not crazy about her whining, I do think she played a smart game, not my game, but it worked for her, to get her to the F3. Too bad she wasn't more physical.
As for Sharon, she talked so much crap on people behind theiry backs, instigated much of the drama, then tried to play like she was innocent. And stop already with the Jacob crap, you were kids when you met, and weren't even interested in each other that way until way later, and listening to her stories, sounds like she was equally cheating on him.
Don't get me started on Natalie, I truly pity the girl, she's quite easy sexually, simple minded, and evidently, her perception of herself is about to be shattered once she sees herself on videos of the show.
I could go on, and on, but, I'll stop there and wish congratulations to Adam

First of all...The "Voting" for "Favorite Juror" was a crock...James was CBS's favorite..thus won..

Am so GLAD Ryan lost.

Both are a LIAR.

What they would do with money....was a "Big Fat Lie"....

Will we ever see "good" people win ??? After last year, thought no one could be worse...OMG this year proved me wrong,

I'll check in before July....LOVE this Site

Im glad that Adam won, I do think that he will use the money wisely.
Maybe he will give Sheila some cash to buy a new dress and shoes, she really needs it.

I LOVED IT ! Adam Won, WTG, James got 25,000 WTG I voted for him. I would have for Sheila but she was so bitter, I get it, BUT She had JUST as much chance to win that HOH competition to go the Final 2 as they did but could not do it. So Adam SHOULD have taken her ?!, why was he SUPPOSED to ?!. It was his choice, get over it . I get it but come on, you had a chance to win. I thought Josh was THE bitter one there. what a bitchy little man...He caused his own trouble...
I thought James was great, congradulated them , was totally Cool with what you have to do to get there so I again, was so happy he got the 25,000. It was really nice. Watching the Replay on the feeds and waiting for BB 10...lol

Thanks HD for being here again,Looking foward to the summer show. Nat. was always saying other people was not being truthful and the way she tore into james for not keeping his word once against her. "well she said that about anyone that didn't do as she would have liked", And she was so two faced and downright slime. (Hypocritical nonsensical BUGEYED maniac) just my opinion, she's a good example of the Lord's grace...amen and with that last gasp of griping i bid ya farewell until july ...goodbye*

i am glad that Adam won although Ryan was good for the money too. As for Josh...he needs some serious anger management classes!

Hi, thank's for another great season of BB. You are the best to give info. for those who need it. Hope you have a great summer. See you in July.
I'm glad Adam won. I'm over-joyed James won the extra money. I really thought Shelia would get it, only because of the single mother thing.
He deserved it, hope he does something good with it.

Bye My BB friend
Frances

On Alex's MySpace page there are comments from his friends saying, "Thanks for sharing the pix, looks like you guys had a blast, etc." but still doesn't confirm they are actually dating. Could they have randomly met and start dating in the relatively short time since he was evicted, or could they just have both been working/volunteering together at that E2-sponsored event most of those pictures were taken at & just had some cute pix taken of the two of them? I wouldn't be surprised if they're dating, just don't think the MySpace fully confirms a serious, romantic relationship.

Also, Eric was at the finale but no sign of Jessica? Anyone know if they are still together?

From HD - He had pictures of them up together not too long ago. Dick's also mentioned it on House Calls. But perhaps I'm making it all up and lying to you....LOL

I tried voting for James several times, but it wouldn't let me so I gave up and was happy that HE won the prize.

Also happy that Baller won the big bucks. That's what Ryan gets for taking him to the final with him because Ryan didn't have a chance over Baller. Ryan was so caught off guard with the questions. He hiccuped so many times answering them, and his answers help him loose the game. Baller was on the up and up with his answers. I was surprised the vote went 6-1, but loved that, because it was a "up your ass" moment for Ryan, IMO.

In the end, Ryan was the idiot for choosing the wrong person to go to the final with him costing him $450,000. I'm pretty sure he'll BLOW all this money very quickly. Funny how he said he'd give some to charity, because, frankly I think he was just mimmicking Adam, in hopes his answer would help in the long run. I do think Jen will spend it for the both of them.

Here's for a better season in July...I don't think there will be a BB any worse than this season with all the self-centered, boring people they had, but I suppose, it is possible.

I agree with what some of you say about wanting to hear from the housemates that got evicted pre-jury. I'd like to hear some of their reactions after watching the show and the after dark, etc.

I liked that Natalie got in that karma comment to Matt. I was glad to see James win the $25K. I think he's a good guy even though he sorta fell for Chelsia, hopefully he's right and that relationship will sink. Jen is soooo annoying. I wish Ryan would see the light with her. He could do much better. It seems that's what everyone tells him too.

Also, wondering if anyone noticed that Adam seemed to have an orange-ish dry cleaning tag still towards the bottom of his shirt? lol Least that's what it looked like.

Hamster Dame, thanks so much for this site! Also, will keep watching for any videos and pics and houseguests interviews or whatever that you may find and post. It is much appreciated, all that you do. :-)

Let's not forget, how despicable he [James] was in the house, hypocritical, disgusting, and such a cry baby when things didn't turn out his way. I find him to be an awful person.

Where have you been hiding, Kay? I wish you had been a first time poster earlier in the season. Oh, well -- better late than never. It is really disturbing to me that so many people like James. I would expect anybody to have a few fans, maybe limited to a parent or a dog, but James has soooo many. I really don't get it, and frankly, it makes me somewhat sad, nervous, and afraid.

OF the 2, I'm glad Adam won. Ryan's downfall is his g/f Jen. She's got a lot of issues and I don't see their relationship working out. I feel Ryan truly does love her, but after he spends all his money on her - she'll be out the door. I was shocked at the weight gain she's had since the show, also - her dress was ugh ! Sheila looked the best as far as the women, Chelsia the worse, than Natalie. I tho't Allison's comments about Jen showed she had a maturity that Jen will never have, because Jen is so insecure. Holding grudges about what went on in that house is stupid - it's a show - get over it. Matt needs to get over himself, he's not all that. Alex is the hottest lol. James is so mixed up, can't he find a different outfit? I'm so over that one. And Joshua, oh my gawd - he has issues lots of them, he's full of bitterness, get over it Josh and quit being so mean spirited. Chelsea - you looked like a cheap street walker. Natalie, you're sweet, funny, but it's time to grow up a a little bit, you're not in high school.

you go jen you are better then all of the posters here put together.

You crack me up Patricia You do tend to get personal with all this don't you? You and Jen need to get over yourselves.

So glad Adam won. So very glad Ryan didn't.

Am signed up for BBAustralia and can't wait for the feeds to start. Will keep me geared up for BB10.

Thank you HD for all you do. I have thoroughly enjoyed your site. I have had more smiles from reading the posts and realize that we are all so different in a lot of ways but that is one of the reasons BB is so much fun to follow.

I wish BB had the same type of reunion show that Survivor has. They could get some really good feedback from evited HG's after they watched the show. More talk of game stagegy and what was said behind the backs of others.

Love the site and will visit to see when wrap party pictures are posted.

HD, as always, you do a great job for those us us who do not have the feeds. You are very fair and balanced, don't hide your feelings and who you are rooting for, and post everyone's postings. It's a great forum for talk.

I have kept you in my favorites and be back in the summer, when new hampsters are led to their cage. My hope is that they have casted people who has some game smarts.

JG

Adam will lose about half of the 500k to taxes. But if he donates 100k to a charity, he can deduct that against his earnings, so he'll end up netting about 200k.

Still seems kinda cheap for a network, prime time game show.

Sad, nervous and afraid, Gray? Did you really say sad, nervous and afraid? LOL. Sorry, I don't buy that. Not from Karl Rove, and not from you. Sad, nervous and afraid! ROTFLMAO.

I was really surprised that Adam won with a 6-1 vote!! The way the jury was acting during the question segment-- I thought everyone was going to do the exact opposite thing I wanted and vote Ryan to win. I was shocked at how Shelia was acting like she was going to vote for Ryan--after everything-- she didnt seem too grateful at her positioning in the end of the show-- she was there for final3-- I know it sucks that she didnt win any money but she got really farther than I had EVER imagined-- so be grateful Woman! Then to almost win the favorite juror money-- yikes! Thats harsh! Oh well maybe she'll do well on her "book" and autographed Penthouse shots. And I know Ive read some things that ppl say her son should be ashamed of her-- but I think not. Thats his mom-- he has every right to be so proud of her-- especially staying in the house that long with alot of mean spirited ppl. i was glad James won the fave money-- Chelsia-- I still cant believe at one point or another-- probably before the strip tease in the first few weeks with Natty-- I thought she was a cute sweet girl! Ha- I was wrong! I still wish Alex and Amanda couldve gone further-- Allison- glad she was voted out when she was.- Jen and Parker- I couldve handled alittle longer with them in the house-- if only Jen couldve kept her big mouth shut and keep the sex under control at least for the first few weeks-- then a soon as everyone went single-- they couldve just acted like there was an attraction! That couldve been great material- but alas Jens mouth was just a waterfall of garbage-- and her remark about her being the first picture on the memory wall and that was suppose to mean she would win all the money! ha! And Jacob!! wtf?! why would he be the little crazy jumper at the last and most random moment! It was just like a little leprechaun jumping into Adams unsuspecting arms-- LMAO! Love to you HD! will be checking in often with you just to see about BB10 updates!

Still seems kinda cheap [$500K] for a network, prime time game show.

A Mark Burnett game show on Fox, Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?, hands out 500K almost weekly to contestants (each of whom can take a chance at 1000K if they choose) who do nothing more than answer up to ten elementary-school-level questions over a period of about an hour. Compare that to the effort he requires players to make for a one-in-sixteen shot at 1000K on Survivor.

HD, I know this will make you throw up in your mouth a little, but those myspace pictures of Daniele and Alex are adorable. And if they are indeed a couple, I heartily approve.

Oh, by the way... I was kind of hoping to see Neil at the finale and maybe have Julie make sure that he's alright-- I know thats just I think with his attitude at the beginning of the show-- and Josh was such his follower-- I'm wondering how different things could have been... Does anyone think that Josh will be looking to talk to him (Neil) ASAP once he gets back to normal life? Josh was so upset when his partner left with no notice at all...no good byes-- maybe thats why Josh was so mean during the rest of the show-- remember-- once Neil left-- thats when Josh started being so mean...

I am not sure how I feel about Adam winning, at the beginning of the season with Adam's comments I looked at the United Autism Foundation website and had several questions if this is a legit foundation, never heard if it was. I have watched big brother every year since season 3 and must say that this is the first year I did not care who won the money, as I didn't want either.

Gray- maybe people like him for how he played the game. We don't care what he does in his personal life, this is a game and that is what we look at. He played an awesome game and too bad he didn't win, he deserved it over anybody in that house imo. It actually surprised me that what he is doing outside the house makes you all mad, we are living in times where anything goes, right? Not that I agree with that mentalilty (or what james does) but it does seem to be the way society as a whole thinks. I personally hate what he does outside the house but can seperate that from the game of BB. Lets just hope we have better hg's on BB10, Right?

HD you make this season, love your website it is the best big brother site. Thank you

Patricia, who are you, really? I think Jen was the most disliked house-guest this season. It's okay to like the loser, they need support too, but she lost so early on. But for her bf making it to final two, I wouldn't have remembered her at all. She's the Danielle wannabe, right?

Did she performs some spectacular feat that we all missed? You did see her opt for money over love in the house, didn't you? I'm referring to the "shield me from the racist" drama she tried so hard to stir up.

Sorry, but she sucked at this game. As my therapist might say, she sucked donkeys.

My therapist moonlights as a Donkey rustler, and has a weird fascination with building castration and/or milking devices, all kinds of crap. It sure is one helluva way to change the subject.

Merry Christmas everyone, I'll get back at ya!

HD, I know this will make you throw up in your mouth a little, but those myspace pictures of Daniele and Alex are adorable. And if they are indeed a couple, I heartily approve.

THAT makes me sad, nervous, and afraid, too. Plus shivers down my spine. No foolin'.

I have many opinions to express, but most of them have been covered thus far, so I will only rant about the lame 1-hour FINALE we get. I can't believe that a 3-month long reality show only gets 1 hour to wrap it all up when Survivor, a 49-day long show gets an excruciating 3-hour finale. I think we should at least have the 1st hour of recaps and the votes, and then perhaps the whole cast, including Julie Chen gets to go back inside the BB house and have another hour or two of questions and more clip "outings". I think it would also be cool if we could watch the Wrap Party on BBAD. We devote 3 months of our lives to this show and all we get is some lame finale...that sucks. BTW...Danielle's hair looked HORRID. I did see my girl, Janelle in the audience and I hope BB can figure out a way to include her in another season! Peace out until July 13th.

You forgot to mention when Julie was questioning Natalie and Julie asking Matt to make any clarifications. Wow! Natalie did NOT want to talk about things, did she?

ROFL!

Cant wait to see the blooper reel and wrap party pics! I missed the interview this morning with Ryan and Adam on the early show! darn it!

Cant wait for season 10 to begin!!

I think what you forgot to mention is how Jen outright lied to Ryan. I swear I never said that.. blah blah blah. If she did it there, she would do it at home as well. That biotch needs to be kicked to the curb, after you get those boobies of course!

Glad Adam won (sorry this is the third time typing this out and the emotion has gone from the show and turned into hatred of this computer).

* Sheila looked the best of anyone. She was dressed for the occasion unlike most of the rest there.
* James - why must everything he wear be like a second skin? I know he likes attention for being different, I had an ex like that - grew a beard about 7 or 8 inches long and NEVER combed his hair but was always clean, (I was sad and desperate, what can I say?) but you can be crazy and not look bad. Show some respect to people. You didn't wear that pink shirt and purplish blue pants because you don't care - you do care. You care that people think you are crazy James - that makes you a hypocrite.
* Matt needs a new haircut, and I hope this is the last time I see his face. I don't care to see any interviews with him. His apology to Natalie was despicable and he's below ED in my book.
* When did Josh get his spray tan and will they give him a few white coats please because he no longer appears to be caucasian. Perhaps it is real tan and he'll have something real to bitch about - skin cancer. I don't hope he gets it, but if he was sunning that much (Natalie too) he needs to stop or it will be a real possibility. Not meant as a racist comment, just a pondering of why white people feel the need to be tan when being tan means you have damaged your skin?
* Natalie, you look like a 12 year old girl trying to look grown up in the 80's in that dress. Stop wearing it. Get yourself on "What Not to Wear" after you watch the season so you know what a jerk Matthew really is, and I hope that helps you get some self esteem.
* Sharon's dress was so ugly, I though tit might be a joke of some sort or a shout out to someone, but I think she seriously mean to dress up. Did she get that from the movie "Mannequin" by any chance. It looks like it belongs in it alone with a big old straw hat. Slap whatever friend looked at you when you tried that on and said "Wow, that is so cute on you!"
* Jen, you and Ryan were made for each other. You both believe you are gracing the planet by walking past any mirror in your path and pausing for just a moment to admire the gift God bestowed upon the rest of us. Go spend all of his money and dump him as you have planned.

I'm feeling a bit of fame-whore coming out in me seeing my SN being mentioned as a good thing by so many of the big time posters I admire. I really am honored that anyone finds my comments funny or worth reading. Hey, do you think maybe someone will read one and give me a job at a big time newspaper or something. I mean that is how it works right? People mention you in a public forum, critique who you are and then you are famous? Good lord... I really do mean I am honored, the rest was obvious sarcasm, but sometimes sarcasm doesn't read well. diff, sandic, Kathy, Grog, claypo, BenF, gray and many more - this has been a tough time in my life and having this extra season of BB and all of you to distract and entertain me has helped a lot. HD - my hat's off to you even though I don't wear one. What does one say then? My scalp's off to you? That's kind of gross - how about just "Thank you"...

Ive read some things that ppl say her son should be ashamed of her [Shelia] -- but I think not. Thats his mom-- he has every right to be so proud of her

He also has a right to be ashamed of her, or at least at the way she behaves. Shelia should be ashamed of herself, but obviously is not, so maybe her son will not be either.

Even though the Holy Word of God, the Bible, says to honor our parents, and gives no exception even for parents like Shelia, I think that would be very hard to do unless you are some sort of saint. That's a question I'll have to ask a clergyman: how to honor a parent who is absolutely insufferable? I mean, even Daniele is not proud of EvelDick, or so she implied on BB8.

Did ChenBot say something to Adam last night more or less that she would keep an eye on him to see if he honored his $100,000 promise to charity? I remember his promise, but I don't remember exactly what she said to him about it. I don't think he was considering his tax burden when he agreed to give away 20% of pretax income to an organization that has just fired him.

I hope no one, even Judge ChenBot, holds it against him if he gives 20% of after-tax income to charity, given that he was probably not thinking clearly when he made the promise and that he is under no legal obligation to give anyone anything.

Don't you think that Ryan should have mentioned that it would have been better for him if he took Sheila to the finals but took Adam out of loyalty. This would have helped him. Sheila was in dreamland when she said neither of them would have gotten the votes over her. She is and will always be in denial about who she is in the eyes of other. I enjoyed BB this season and look forward to next July for BB ten. Thank you for giving us your wise and informative input throughout the season.

Maybe Adam is legally obligated now, since he publicly pledged a specific amount to a specific organization. Can any of our attorney posters here answer that? ClayPo? Coleen?

love your site - thanks so much

Dear notaccountable - don't worry about missing the Early Show, it was pointless. It looked like it was taped last night. Julie had the guys on the BB stage with the same outfits they had on in the finale and the same audience behind them, and handed them those big checks. It was completely worthless.
The videos posted here (link below) are decent though - interviews with lots of HGs in the backyard after the finale.
http://cbs2.com/bigbrother/Big.Brother.BB9.2.709926.html
BTW - HD -- I would never accuse you of lying about Alex & Daniele, that wasn't at all what I meant, I just meant the MySpace page didn't confirm it specifically and I thought that was interesting, that's all. They looked like they were having fun in those pictures, so whatever the deal is with them (and anyone else for that matter), I just hope they're happy.
See ya for BB10, and THANKS!!

Well the whole show was really anti climatic, I didn't care who won this year. Didn't really care for most of the HGs. Lets hope BB10 is better. Thanks HD for making this season tolerable. You are a great place to let off steam, and then be brought back to the fact its just a game. (But I still don't like Jame). Hated that the West Coast didn't even get a chance to vote. So glad Sheila didn't win it though. The least deserving of anyone on the show in my opinion. Time to move on!! Thanks again.

I was puttering around the house this morning, doing the usual chores, unloading the dishwasher, planning dinner, etc. Thinking. That's always dangerous - especially since I was STILL trying to figure out who the heck gNatty resembles. It's driven me crazy(er) all season - who does she look like?? I went to read Cheers and Jeers on DailyKos and there it was in a link to a music video - gNatty looks, kind of, like a young, albeit plump by comparison, Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders. Happy Dance!!!!! Mystery solved. Loose ends all tied up for me. Now if I could just get WeenieBoy to quit emailing the GPSisters when I'm out of the room! Bad boy!! Bad boy!! I hope next year they have tarantulas in that tank!

And did you see Adam on HCs??? Apparently he knows he got fired and said he expected it. I smell a cover up to avoid be embarrassed about it, but perhaps he really did think it was a possibility. Who knows - and btw, I don't really care. They had a good time on the show today and it was fun to watch.

Toodles, y'all!!

So, did Jen use her $5000 to buy boobs, or did she make a baby with Ryan during their toilet sex session before her eviction?

Glad that Adam won....at least Ryan won enough money to buy belt.... so glad we won't have to look at his drawers anymore! UGH!!

Feel bad for Sheila, but she didn't play well or hard enough. James truly deserved the $25K. Hopefully he takes his own advise and doesn't party it away.

Wish the show was longer, they should have had more conversations with all the evicted house guests, not just JEN and ALLISON.

Cannot wait until BB10!

HD YOU ROCK !!!!

Dear Monochromatic One:

You might also want to spend a few minutes discussing Matthew 5:7 with that clergyman.

Chelsia why so angry??
Seriously everytime she speaks its like her energy is so negative.

I get that no one likes Jen (I'm not a fan either) but why does Chelsia so adamently and personally hold it against Ryan for loving his girlfriend, even if she is not her cup of tea?

I really believe Jen lost the game for Ryan.
People generally had nothing against Ryan, but they HATED Jen and when Ryan kept playing up how he was going to spend the money on Jen and how Jen is the love of his life, that lost him big points.
Otherwise I think he probably would have won.
No one wanted to see Jen get any of the money.
Can't say as I blame them.
Much better going to Adams charity then Jen.

Joshuah is also another one who needs to get a grip on his anger.

Both Chelsia and Joshuah are such angry people, and that is not a good way to go thru life.

They should both take lessons from Sharon who is the most positive breath of fresh air on the show.

You might also want to spend a few minutes discussing Matthew 5:7 with that clergyman.

With that in mind, I, gray, in kindness and mercy, forgive you, BenF, for rejecting my invitation to join the Shelia Haters Club. I even extend to you an open invitation to join whatever Haters Club that will be started during BB10, unless it turns out that I love every cast member, of course.

I'm glad that Adam won.

I agree there were some very poor wardrobe decisions made last evening.

I think my single vote for Sheila to win the $25K put her in second place since everyone else seems to have voted for James.

And I have a "kill two birds with one stone" suggestion. For all those people who hated these hamsters, please let's nominate Gray and Patricia to be in the next BB house together.

Toots, a lot of people think that Nat looks like Cheri Oteri. I didn't try to post a photo because I don't know if HD allows it, so the link will have to do.

From HD - Fixed your code. ;)

Well if Amber or an Amber-like person or Jameka or a Jameka-like person are in the BB10 house you can count me in for one of those Hater clubs Gray. But I think you might have already given the impression that Jameka was the wind beneath your wings last season, so we would be at odds at the quick. Why don't you just go ahead and start up those Hater clubs now and then we can just match faces and foibles to them come July. Hehehe.

gNatty does look like Cheri Oteri - you're right, gray! I don't have the link, but if you go to YouTube and search for The Pretender's "2,000 Miles" or some of the other ones - looked like it was an A&E Unplugged session or perhaps a MTV production, complete with a string session - you'll see her dark eye make-up and bangs, etc. It bugged me all season and Chrissie is my pick, but agree that she does resemble Oteri also! Happy Dance again!!

Hi HD....great site for the season as always. I really couldn't decide between Adam and Ryan although I kinda knew Adam would win. My hubby called it several weeks ago.

As far as the hg's clothes go....ugh!!! Sheila might have had on the best dress but her sour face just ruined it for me. The rest of their clothes just SUCK!!!

That being said...gray...I really wanted to tell you that you are not alone in your Sheila hate. I didn't mind her at first(even tho I had to mute her all the time) but when she turned on Nat and tried to strongarm Adam and Ry to do the dirty work for her...my hate came to the surface. I'm sooooo glad she didn't win a dime. Even tho I didn't like James either I was happy Sheila once again lost out on the money. KNOW THAT!!!! And still last nite she showed that she just doesn't get it. The thought that Ryan shoulda took her to F2 over Adam was stunning to say the least. I couldn't even listen to her CRAP!

Quite frankly I can't even comment on Josh,Sharon and especially Chelsia. Go away already! And WTH was that with Jacob jumping Adam??? At first I thought it might have been Adams brother but it was Jacob!....EWWWW! Oh and Matt looked like crap too....LOL.

Oh well another season bites the dust. I'm gonna forget about this whole bunch and hope for the best in July.

I look forward to coming back here and reading all the posts that I find so funny and insightful.

Thanks to all and and HD!

HD!

Hi! My one year old son turned off my taping of the show half way into the finale..

I guess I will go check out the show on the CBS website or do some You Tube tonight..

Have a great break...

I'm glad Adam won but I was surprised by the 6-1 vote. I'm also glad that James got the $25,000. I think its funny that Sheila was 2nd, you could even hear Sheila gasp (in despair no doubt) when Julie announced she was the second choice.

I think they're all want a be porn stars. Oh that's right, James and Sheila already are. ;0)

Nat = Cheri Oteri.. lol. I kept waiting for her to start the SPARTAN CHEERLEADERS' ! " 1..2.3,4,5 you aint got no alibi.." so funny

I watched most of the interviews with Gretchen Massey on CBS. Minus Shelia ( because I am a hater) and Sharon because I just didn't want to hear her voice.
I do feel bad that it seems Shelia's son was at the finale.
And
I hope BB 10 is clean, fresh crew. No secret partners enemies family members etc. We have been saying for the past few seasons. PLEASE HEAR US... WE ARE HERE, WE ARE HERE. ( sorry, Horton Hears a who quote)

Lastly, my son was watching the finale with me and when Chelsia walked out in her towel.. er I mean Tube Dress, he actually looked at me in disgusted and said "What is she wearing". He's 8 ( I know, I probably shouldn't let him watch, but I only let him watch the 8:00 shows on CBS. I figure they are more of a family Time. Last night he asked me what everyone did, besides big brother. I danced around allot of it. Shelia, oh she was a model......

Keep the comments coming I need some thing to read and get my BB fix. I'm not ready to let go yet

After reading more comments, I have to add--they should have showed the GP's and said what will happen to them, (I think Sharon should take them home). Sheila is so irratating! As someone above stated, she could have won one of the parts of the last HOH herself, she has a lot of nerve to put all the blame on Adam. I'm still glad that Adam won.

Toots, I've got you pegged as a HUGE Rush Limbaugh fan, so I'm gonna share what he said about Chrissie Hynde. "She's the kind of woman that when you look at her, you just know she would give you a disease, but you don't care."

I don't normally listen to Rush on my own, but where I used to work, the boss had him piped throughout the entire building.

Did you ever hear him say (with a Darth Vader voice) "I'm your father gray"?

The fact that your boss forced all his employees to listen to that drivel makes me blue, anxious, frightened and gives me goosebumps! No kidding!

From HD - Y'all are soooo gonna miss each other in this off season. I hope you two make it through OK.

(Gasping for air....being revived after fainting) Gray, honey, now I need you to calm down and think about what you just posted. You silly boy, thinking that you'd found a soulmate/Limpbaglistener. Take your nitro - I hate to break it to you, but you've been brainwashed by your boss - akin to waterboarding/torture. NO one should be subjected to that bullbueno on a regular basis - it shrinks your itty gray cells... OH. Wait. That's explains a lot... Really sorry, gray. Really. Ooopsie.

From HD - OK folks. Politics time is over. LMAO! It's time for y'all to cover world hunger. Go!

Silly me - forgot to break it to you, gray, that Limbaugh's theme song is a Chrissie Hynde song. WTF?? Never made any sense to me either.

I hope Adam dont really plan on giving money for fracking retard research!

Holy twin GreyMan, Nat really DOES look like Cheri Oteri, and they both are accustomed to cheerleader outfits!

BTW: Depending on jurisdiction, I think Adam can "slide by" his charity claim, unless he is aware of the actual taxation he faces with the win (a defense) and the charity relied upon a promise he made to SOMEONE ELSE.

I'd hope he held firm, but it could also be a claim that was a necessary evil to win the game....keyword being "game".

Despicable tactics are allowed. Here's an easier way to think about it. Imagine Adam, in his defense, saying "I told a lot of lies to get to the end, and they knew about the lies BEFORE the vote, and they had no reason to believe me".

Plus, I think the charity would have had to rely on the promise, and there was not a lot of time for them to make purchases before he came out the victor, i.e. no damages.

Gray, you rock amigo, love the posts!

Toots and Gregor:

I love that we all can't resist falling for Gray's exacting and provocative triggers, even though we all know that's exactly what they are. What Gray probably failed to mention to us about that old boss of his, is that Gray himself is and always has been self-employed, works at home, has speakers in every room of his house and that every time he moves he pretends he's started a new job and has a new boss. (Didn't say a word about politics HD).

HD, not sure if you said anything about this but is there a place where we can see pics etc. of the after show party? Or any vids?

From HD - I said something about it in this very post. I'll have a post up in the next day or so with tons of links to interviews and videos.

Oops, yes you did HD. Sorry bout that. Looking forward to seeing it all.

HD I liked coming to your site here to get updated on everything going on w/BB9. I know the reason Ryan didn't get 1st place was basicly because of Jen!!!! Adam (the buggar picker/eater) lucked out due to that,cause he was so gross and ill mannered!!!! I can't wait for Chelsia to see the videos of james' gay porn, then maybe she'll drop that sour attitude she has!!!LOL And I do hope that Ryan dumps Jen after he see's how she tried to throw him under the bus!!! All in All this years BB9 was not All that, hope cbs does better for BB10!!??!! Have A Great Summer Everyone!!!

How come nobody has questioned what "Together Again" BB10 is supposed to imply?
Any thoughts?

*yawn*
I'm so over this season, anxiously awaiting BB10!

See ya around fellow BB Addicts :)

p.s. I still love Chelsia and James, although I wish they could have hired a stylist for the event.

Fe fi to fum, thank the goddess Adam won, whew, that was a close one, I know my post is late, but I had a very important date, ok doing a happy happy joy joy dance, I had others picked out FTW but I'll take Adam, if you know me at all you know this, Ryanstein will forever be a putz! James getting the xtra prize at the end was cool, I stillbthink a little something something was in line for a surviving couple, no matter who that may be, what a challenge to overcome, it was a twist and the couples were targeted instantly due to advantage and not so liked behaviors, but when all is said and done, Adam better do good with his promise to those kids as 30 million of us heard it and it would make up for, well let's say "rude behavior", and will expect it, were still watching Adam. I will always peek in and say hi, see you all this summer, take care my friends and can't wait to laugh, cry, barf, and argue again!!! Love ya HD! May this find you all in good spirits... G~

Jenn was on for what 5 minutes ?! are you a realitive? , but we DO have our right to our opinion...That said...

I liked the outcome, Adam was deserving I felt certainly more that Ryan if ONLY for the fact he ALREADY WON 30,000 in cash and prizes ! But I thought James winning was great (voted for him BTW)..lol Shiela voting for Adam was nice but I think she more than likely changed her mind due to the others voting the way the did. Chelsia's dress and Nat's was ridiculously short. and Amanda, WOW holy cow looked like she was wrapped in blue saran wrap as tight as possible..lol the worst of all of them... liked hte rap party pics though..........

So, Is Sheila going to start dating ED now?

For w/o you my season of big bro would not be complete. I have been so busy I haven't had time to watch...but I always make time for your blog. Excel-ENT. thanks for another great season o commentary. :o)

Kells- jenn being on the show for like 5 minutes is kind of my point, she wasnt on long enough for anybody to know her on here or to hate her

Patricia - Your point was ill conceived and poorly delivered. It was more of a grade school reply, not even sophomoric.

Jenn, in the short time she was there, did and said some awful things. She then contributed to the negative impression by being a catty bitch and a camera hog at the final.

I wish her and Ryan well, though a gambling man wouldn't put a dime on their staying together much longer.

Please come back next season, when one of your relatives or friends is not a house guest, and you can hopefully be a bit more objective and less of a bitch yourself.

Are there ANY after party pictures any where?
I found interviews with Gretchen Massey (who is truly awful as a host). Is there anything else out there?

hmmm.. I wonder if "together again" means all the showmances from past seasons. I really hope not, that would be even cornier than this season. Might have some nice drama though

Oh Patricia -- that's where you are so wrong. We don't need 5 minutes to hate. We can hate in 3 seconds; or after shockingly rude comments made to our dear Dame Le Hamster.

Dear not so sweet Patricia.

We come here to make comments and voice our opinions with regard to houseguests. We do not cut down other posters or the Host of this site. Frankly, your rude comments aimed at HD and several of the posters on this site are Sophmoric at best. They are uncalled for. Not sure if you can understand that, but thought I would put that out there in hopes that you can understand where your posts differ from the rest of ours. If you have something constructive to say, please do so in a more respectful manner, and we may just listen and consider what you have to say.

As for Jen, even though she was not on there long, she behaved pretty skanky if you watched any of the Live feeds or You Tube. Throwing Ryan under the bus with her racism comment harmed him outside the house. Her and Ryan's bathroom "get together" -- after a few days in the house. Ewwwww. Couple or no, we don't need to know all the details of that incident, and yet it was out there for all to know, and she was pretty proud of that little incident. She thought she was all that and showed that by her comment about her picture placement on the Wall and assuming that meant she was going to the end - even if it was said in jest, came across as egotistical. Those are some of the reasons we were not impressed with her as a houseguest. Sorry it is so difficult for you to understand that sentiment, but it is what it is.

Sincerely, Sleepyeye9

I really dont care if you all hate me but acting like someone is great because they sit in front of a computer all day and report on other peoples lives is just funny, Next your going to pay tribute to all overweight couch potatos as wonderfull, come on give me a break.

From HD - I'm not going to be offended by what you said because it's not the first time somebody has accused me of sitting in front of my computer all day watching Big Brother. But guess what? I'm not the only one out there that watches the feeds so much. There are many sites on the web full of people who do nothing but sit there and report continuously on what the people in the house do. And guess what else? There would be no Big Brother if there was nobody watching the live feeds. Oh, and one more thing. We can watch and enjoy or bitch about anything we want. You're just a troll who must have even less of a life than all of us if you're going on a blog to bitch about people watching live feeds when that's what the whole reason for the show is. Here's another helpful hint for you -- the season is over. Go outside or go to the gym. You probably need physical exercise more than the rest of us if this is all you can do. Lord knows mental exercise won't help you much.

You tell her, HD. I think you're awesome, myself! On to BB Australia: Don't you think that Rory is ultra fine to look at? Unfortunately, he doesn't like overweight women, so no chance for me! LOL. What do you think of Terri's housemate hand granade? Is Nobi turning into the biggest boo hooer on the show, or what?

I am soooo over PatriciaTroll/Jenn's twin. Since she spoke to our dear HamsterDame the way she did, she's not worth the cyber-ink we've wasted on her.

I have to say, once Sunday's finale was over, I forgot all about the show! When does Big Brother 10 begin? Please, let the casting people cast people that are likeable. It can't possibly be any worse than this season... or can it???

From HD - The first show of BB10 is scheduled for July 13. Of course, the weeks before the season begins will be filled with speculation as usual. That's always a fun time!

HD, I lead a massive busy, stressful, and at times hectic life. Several kids, 200 client files, 10 in litigation in different court (Federal & state). Some in jurisdictions with judges and/or defense counsel who still enjoy the "good ole boy" system as opposed to what is just for ALL involved.

That being said, I wish I had the foresight (not skin, haha) and "balls" to have made the leap to "work" doing something I enjoyed so much. You are passionate in your posts, intuitive into the situations/conversations that occur, and you encourage discussion with your DEDICATED posters that make our thoughts on this show "grow" like a weed.

Patricia, consider researching a little thing called "interpersonal communication". You don't know what HD does, you just sit in your little cubicle angry at the world and your crap life venting in the "business" of another. This site is HDs office, are you just mad because your boss regulates the internet, or just irritated because your People PC phone line takes to long to let the screen come up?

We don't think HD is "great" because she "sits around reporting" on people's lives. Are you that incapable of understanding and articulating the relationship between she and her posters? Do you even have a grasp on the "relationship" between she and her posters and the show?

You don't have enough information on this to even allow your rage to think about it. Just as I don't know about your crap cubicle and turtley connection.

We like HD because tells us information WE want to know, but cannot know because we have other jobs, unrelated to this single interest. We like HD because she comments back and have conversations with our posts. We like HD because she is a cool chica and makes us giggle. She, and the the posters via discussion, are the equivalent of a "cliff notes" or cheat sheet to the happenings in the house.

YOU should like HD and this site because she protects you. For example, say I made an absolutely rude post regarding your weight, bad hygiene, crooked teeth, eyes too close together like a bowling ball, or slapping you with a "stink palm"....well, she would send me a message saying "I'm not posting that", because she respects ALL posters. Even when they troll and act rude.

So quit the 'gina envy and move on. We know you want HDs job, but you can't have it! Post nice, and respect the moderator.

Hi HD
I love your site and your opinions. this season I think I agreed with you more than I disagreed.
I cant wait to come back and read you opinion for BB10. Untill then will you be doing silly reality?

From HD - Thanks! And btw, stop by there and take a look. :)

i just want to know when Chelsia is going to Vegas with her $21,000 VIP trip?

hd,

i am bit late with my comment on the final BB9. glad adam won over ryan for some reason. you know they really need to re-format the finale show. never understood why the cant do an interview with the winner & jury ala survivor.

i missed the "tiff" going on here. but i will say this... HD,you know you have tons of support & love for you & silly hamsters! i forget how addicted i am to this site until BB is over. WITHDRAWL!

Hahaha....Patricia....Go vent somewhere else!!!
Love the site. HD Great work this season. I don't get the feeds, so this was my inside scoop at Big Brother 9 and I loved it. Great job once again!! Can't wait until Big Brother 10. See ya then!

Have you heard why Neil left yet? Not sure if its true but I did hear he left because he made fun of Julie Chen.

Hi HD -- Didn't know if you'd posted the BB9 Gag Reel yet or if you wanted to, but thought I'd link to them real quick in case anyone hasn't seem them. They're pretty funny. :o)

Part 2

I think they'd go for a longer finale show if the ratings were better.

It's too bad Ryan didn't win, he had a bit more class than Adam. I was a Natalie fan, she had more class than all of them. Nat played a good game, maybe she talked too much game her last week, but her intentions were good. The boys were afraid to take her to final 3 for good reason... she would have made the final HOH comps actually competitive, as opposed to what they were, just strategic posturing. However, in the water comp, both boys may have outlasted Nat just because their insulating fat layers are so thick that they may have withstood the cold better. It would have been nice to see them suffer though. It's just not a real Big Brother without suffering in the final cold water comp. This is ALWAYS a pleasant place to visit, and mucho UPS to HD!

Adam was fun to watch on House Calls this week, and Ryan was not.

WOULD RYAN OF HAD A BETTER SHOT AT WINNING IF HE PICKED SHEILA TO GO WITH HIM 2 THE FINALS..I ALSO BET SHEILA WILL DO A SPREAD FOR PLAYBOY OR PENTHOUSE AGAIN..TALK AMONGST YOURSELVES

Dee:

Natalie had more class?!?! Was it the classy BJs or the elegant breast milk squirting or the graceful strip tease that stood out the most to you?!?! Wow... What show were you watching, exactly?

HD fan: Dee was watching the same show as you and I. The blow jobs were done in the dark, under the covers, not on top of the bed with the lights on. And they were free; she didn't charge Matt $25 like some common crack whore. That's Class with a capital 'C' in my book.

As for the milk squirting and strip show -- no comment.

I ALSO BET SHEILA WILL DO A SPREAD FOR PLAYBOY OR PENTHOUSE AGAIN

The only safe bet is that Shelia would jump at the opportunity to spread it just one more time for Playboy or Penthouse. The real question is would the mags even let her do it, and I am guessing the answer to that is no since Shelia is WAY past her prime. The only person who would be interested in seeing that is our good friend and Shelia admirer, BenF.

I was just wondering if you had any pics of the wrap party?

Gray!! I see you've returned from vacation. :)

I am in mental rehab, suffering form BB withdrawal. I keep waking up to the sound of "beebeees" and some ill-witted child voice saying "it's chatty natty", and when I look down at my covers, I keep seeing some curly head chick rustling the covers.

I think I have a cure though, I'm going to go get a conservative bow-tie tatoo on my neck and wear pink V-neck t-shirts.

I'll update you if it works, or try to get a message out by way of correctional officers trading for little debbies from the commissary.

Here's a URL to some of the pics, Kimberly.

Is it bad that I still check this site daily and hope for an update?

From HD - Yes, it is! LOL

Is it bad that I am still checking, even after you told me it was bad?

Have a great weekend! :)

Is anybody watching BB Australia? Its weird and super funny!!! We could have been talking about it this whole time! See ya' in July!

Only 5 more weeks until BB10!!!!

I, like Stephie, am bad for still checking the site. But I hope to see if there are any updates, like did Adam go through with his pledge to donate $100K? Are Ryan and Jen still together? Is Natalie stripping again? Are Chelsia and James still together?

Still have it bad and counting the days......
