Big Brother 7

I am SO glad that Erika did not win. I feel very badly for her... yes. But the person (of the two) who deserved to win did win, so I feel vindicated. I felt bad that they humiliated her like that in front of everybody, with her family in the audience, with Mike right there. It's one thing to be a fool on national television and to go home and find out in the privacy of your home, it's another for it to be revealed to you ON NATIONAL TV. I probably would have cried ... or at least handled it worse.

I'm least surprised with the way that Will voted.
I was most surprised initially but shouldn't have been when Janelle walked in with such hatred for Erika. I mean, I knew that she hated women, but I didn't realize how easily that hatred would morph into this false reality where Erika somehow betrayed her. I thought that Will would have had to work her over and make her think that, but she came in pretty much believing it already.
As for the votes, I was most surprised with the way Howie voted. If I had been Mike, I would have thought that that would be the one vote to cancel, if i had the chance to cancel one vote, simply because Howie is... well, Howie. It showed a lot of depth to his character that I had no idea existed, or maybe it showed how much the producers skewed the storytelling with the clips and the segments shown to make it seem like he was a stupid, emotional and irrational brute, when really he just had a temper, but the rest of the time was quite normal and smart.

I was most impressed with the way Mike answered the questions the jury gave him. Especially Danielle's question. That was... fantastic. He's a lot brighter than I gave him credit for. I was not impressed with Erika's spin-doctoring. It seemed to be just wrong. I think she could have pulled it off with the right speeches and the right answers, but she didn't.

I'm sorry that Will didn't win, duh. But Chill Town did.

Toby makes me violently ill.

The rest of the rockers are great.

Personally I hope they pick Toby for their band so that I don't have to be troubled by them ever again, and then Magni, Lukas, and Dilana can all have brilliant solo careers or go onto other bands that won't be gross because of that gross Gilby Clarke. That would be the best possible scenario. Or they could take Magni. I'd hate for them to pick Dilana or Lukas because then I might have to listen to their crummy music because I actually like them. Then again, maybe they could make it better or awesome? The tour is coming to my city xd
