Self Appointed Insiders?

May 19, 2006

Last night’s daily show had David and Michael possibly forming a partnership to stir things up in the house.  It was an interesting reaction from David, when he basically decided ‘if there’s no money to win, what the hell?’

This is an interesting development in BB06 and I am certain that Big Brother et al have intentionally conditioned the housemates towards these kinds of attitudes.

The Intruders

May 19, 2006

I have now had a chance to observe the Intruders in the house.

Rob is nice, but sometimes he tries the in your face gay guy thing, particularly in his advice to Michael that can at first seem overly agressive. I think this is probably just a self defence mechanism as I believe Rob is probably more of an introvert. I think David thought he was bit filthy at first, but later realised he is actually a nice person with bad hair and odd eyebrow grooming habits.

The house now has a hairdresser!

Jade could be okay. She has come in expecting to be quite powerful and like Elise before her, is finding herself marginalised from the other housemates. I think if she just acts naturally, people will discover she is cool. Just as they have with Claire. Although the talking to herself might draw comparisons to Rachel from BB05.

Danielle just seems a bit blank. She is a girly girl and Krystal found herself instantly drawn to her character. I can't imagine her making much of a contribution to the house. But this is probably due to her being so young.

This year more than previous years, it seems like there haven't been enough mature (should that read old? :-) ) people put into the house!
