I'm just happy BB is out of the 5 mil's on Wed. Hey, as a fan of the show, I have to go for small victories.

Yeah, BB9 is entertaining so I want it to do well. No one could realistically expect it to do any better when on most nights its facing extremly popular OTHER reality programming.
Oh, and Marc as far as nobody to root for...come on there's Natalie...she deserves the half million after putting up with Matty being cruel to her...and I wonder how quicly he'd beat feet back to her to help spend the money!

1. Maybe it's me, but every time Natalie opens her mouth, I keep wondering how far Cheri Oteri's career has fallen post-SNL. I half-expect Will Ferrell to drop by the house so he and Natalie can do a cheerleader skit.
2. On last night's show, CBS appeared to censor markings on both sides of James' "Pi" chest tattoo. Anyone know what those markings are?
James has had to cover some of his tattoos the whole season because of obscene language and pictures on them...
and BB is doing what it was supposed to be doing- holding the fort until the new stuff is ready. They picked a really weak cast overall, and with Chels gone and Nat HOH (who I like BTW), it's gonna be a Pagonging for a couple of weeks. I did love the guinea pig segment they had on Sunday's show however- one of the funnier moments this season (especially their Diary Room- whoever came up with that one should be given a raise)...
but at least they've announced some of the cast for Joss' new series Dollhouse- I think it's shaping up well. Now if Fox will give it a fair chance....

Kid Nation might've done better overall but BB9 isn't far behind it and still may have a solid finale.

The cast has been downright awful this year, especially the likes of Natalie, Matt, and Amanda (Bueno!). Ugh, the horrors.
I want Sheila and Adam as F2. Seeing how their relationship started, I think that would be pretty cool. I'm just glad the vile Chelsia is gone. But at least she left with her dignity!

Natalie put up with Matty because she's the obsessive stalker type. You can still see it in her glossed over eyes every time they put her annoying rear end on the screen (which has been about the half the episodes content this year). Maybe if they rigged it to get rid of her instead of help her (like last night when the HOH competition magically just ended) the ratings would increase.

Chelsia did act like a baby there at the end but I can tolerate her a lot better than Natalie. Sheila is a floater and is pretty delusional as to how the game goes. Her and Evel Dick would be a match made in STD Heaven. Adam acts clueless but probably is a smarter person than one would think. James should win though because they were stupid enough to put him back into the game or Joshua, who's really manipulated the house more than anyone else.
But could ANTM actually be needing the benefit of a stronger lead out? Could horrible repeats of PCD be hurting ANTM that much? Seems like a 2.75 million Gossip Girl or One Tree Hill propped up its numbers a bit.
Hopefully the CW will see that a single show cannot prop up a night. It needs a combination of something to keep viewers at the channel.

You should have seen the fight Nat and Chels had on the feeds uncensored...Chels called Nat a "white trash trailer park c---" among other things and said she'd be doing Matt when Nat walked into the jury house...yeah, I don't think "dignity" is what I'd call it...
Too bad this show is a one trick pony. The only reason it is doing semi-well is because it leads into AI and has no other comp. I recall Fox airing this show a few weeks back on a mon. night as an anchor and lets just say that on its own it really has no legs to stand on because it tanked.
