OMG, BB12 is upon us. Less than 30 days from now our lives will be over, and we'll be glued to our computer and television screens waiting for the next blow up (or hook up) in the BB House.
I am soooooo excited for it to begin. BB11 was one of the most entertaining seasons I've ever watched since I started watching during BB7. The Producers are going to have a truly difficult time finding people as controversial and loved/hated as they did with BB11. (Yes, Chima and Ronnie, I'm looking at you.) I hope that they find people as interesting if not more. But I gotta say, I don't think they'll ever top my faves of Jordan and Jeff. Seeing those two together literally brought a smile to my face on a daily basis. And the Amazing Race basically ignored them, so I wasn't able to get my fix of them with that show. Here's hoping they'll make a surprise appearance as comp hosts at some point during BB12. Yes folks, The Jordeff love still lives on.
Another thing that I'm super excited about is the unique privilege of making the banners for BBDish again this season. After everything that Carolyn gives us, it's the least I can do, and if there's anything that I can do to help her be able to focus her energies elsewhere, like giving us amazing updates multiple times daily, then I'm game. Making the first one of this season really made the fact that BB12 is upon us hit home. And I really can't wait to see what the new not-so-2005 (her words folks, not mine, looks great to me in either form) face lift looks like on BBDish. If you haven't heard of BBDish, then I have no idea how you found me, but be sure to check it out: BigBrotherDISH
But, what I'm MOST excited about is getting to experience BB12 with the most amazing people in the world. Carolyn, Genie Sea, Jun (my dishmance!), GaYToR, Blue, MsFitz, WendyLady, JulieB, Michelle in Indiana, Rubyrooo, Tarheel~Teresa, Ilissa, Marci, Jaggers, KScooterfox, Reneep, MaryE, .... OMG, there's just so many! Basically anyone who's posted at the Dish or here, full of awesomeness. In all honesty, I think all of you is what made BB11 so much fun!
To get ready for BB12, I've been rewatching the BB11 episodes on CBS.com. The drama, the fights, the Jordeff, wow, so much fun reliving those moments. Even Jessie was more tolerable this time around, knowing what lay in store for him with Coup d'Etat. I've watched almost all 30 episodes over the last few days. Go watch 'em before they disappear! I've also fired up that flashback machine to experience some of the awesome moments of BB11. If you don't have the feeds, be sure to get them from Carolyn at BBDish, who I'm sure will be posting links to get them any day now. You won't be disappointed. Combined with the awesome posts including times of noteworthy events from BB Dish and the Flashback Machine, you won't miss a thing.
Here's some things I don't want to see this season:
The Next Ronnie: Ronnie is the only houseguest that made me want to physically punch my screen. I don't mind people that play hard and fast, but someone who does that, and thinks that they are the ultimate gamer and know more about the BB Game than any of the other houseguests in the history of BB. Someone who thinks that they are cooler than they are or EVER will be. Ugh ... Ronnie = Do Not Want!
The Next Chima: The last thing BB12 needs is another ungrateful, cackling, self-centered harpie like Chima was. I really think that's all that needs to be said about her.
No More Jessie: He's had two shots. That's MORE than enough.
Nasty Hook-Ups w/ No Substance: Let's face it, there are plenty of sites out there that one could visit to see the nastiness that was seen via Jessie and Lydia of Season 11, April and Ollie of Season 10, or James and Chelsia of Season 9 (Sorry, Chelsia, but I know you kick yourself over this more than we do!). A cute little love story with respect for one another would be awesome again, like we had with Jordeff, but I'm not holding my breath.
Houseguests that stay up until 6-7-8am: C'mon guys, some of us occassionally have to get up for work early in the mornings. Can we cut if off at like 2am or 3am? Please?
Giving in to HG's Threats: OMG, this is a biggie. No more threats and blatant disregard for house rules from the houseguests without consequences. When BB calls you to go to the DR, go. When BB asks you to put your mic on, do it.
Have-Have Nots: One of the things I hated most about BB11 besides Ronnie and Chima (dead horse? lol) was the Have Nots. I'd rather see the old food comps back. Or a new one. I think that the Have Nots was a fun thing to try out, I just didn't think it worked.
Nasty Natalie: Ugh, what killed me most was the chewing with her mouth open, yelling at us in the DR, and above all, not taking showers. She was the epitome of disgusting. I'm hoping for houseguests with more manners and hygiene than Natalie had. Even 15% more would be better. Just sayin'.
So, what else can you expect from Synful Ramblings this summer? I seriously hope to have many more blog posts than just the two I had last season. I'm already half way there, w00t! And yes, I will indeed be posting a blog or more giving a sneak peek into the life of the man behind Syn928 (and great, I know I just opened that one up for GaYToR).
So strap in everyone and let's get ready for what I hope will be an extremely exciting summer!
