A Big Thank You for an Fun Big Brother 2011 Season!
|Hi guys,
Before we get all the way to the end, I just wanted to take this opportunity to say… Thank you!
Some of you “Vets” have been with me for years. To all of you, and you “Newbies,”— I thank you from the bottom of my heart for choosing to spend at least part of your Big Brother 2011 Season with me.
It’s been a blast, and honor and a privilege to hang out, strategize, and yes…even argue… with ya’ll.
This has not been my favorite season. Today I looked back over some of the posts from last year and I saw true passion in them. And I got to thinking that this year didn’t engender the kind of emotional uproar that I, at least, usually feel with this crazy show.
No other reality show on television gets on your nerves and under your skin like BB. We get to know these HG’s in a way we can’t with a Survivor, or an American Idol, cause we have the FEEDS. When you spend hours upon hours watching and listening to people, you can’t help it.. You get emotionally attached.
While I had my favorites this season, none of them lit a fire in my guts (either with love or hate) the same way they have in previous years.
I’m betting (and you all know how I like to bet my body parts) that next year will be a whole different story, and I wish with all my heart that you’ll come back in July 2012, and join me again.
In the meantime, have a beautiful, peaceful, healthy and happy year with your family and loved ones and know that a crazed BB reporter is thinking about you. 🙂
Since I think a person can love trash TV AND literature.. I’d like to say that I am a writer, and have completed my first novel. I’m still working on revisions, so it’s not perfect yet. But my dream–like every other “aspiring” out there– is to one day be a published author..
If you love to read, and want to talk books, writing.. anything, I’d love to hear your thoughts and have you join me on my writer’s website http://janetbtaylor.com/coming-home-from-tv-land/
I’ve posted the first two chapters of my book and I would be more than honored to hear your comments.

Janet,,,
I am one of your vets that has been with you thru thick and thin and i just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your great site and bb blog..FOr the most part we always saw eye to eye–and you words were like they came out of my mouth..you were always spot on with the way i felt about things..SO Thank you Janet for your great posting. and i can’t wait to read your book..Good luck in every thing you do!!!…and i am sure i will be back here with you again next year but for now—Go Rachel…jordan and Adam….
i might be a newbie to your site but i am not a newbie to big brother. i hope rachel and jordan go all the way to the end just to piss off danille and shelly
I am also a newbie to your site. I wish I would have found you years ago! Your spoiler made following the houseguests much more interesting. I must say I became a little obsessed with the shiw
…obsessed with the show. Just ask my husband… Good job, Janet!!!
I’m a french canadian from Montreal, Canada, so excuse my english :)! I’m a newbie from the live feeds and a enjoy your site very much. At the begining, I check onlinebigbrother but the commentaires and pictures are awfuls and bordeline crazy. Please keep up with your good work. Only one regret : I cannot vote for Jeff, I’m not a USA resident (snif snif). One last thing, is it true that Jordan won POV? I hope so.
Question… when the show is over, is this website will be open for us to see the flasbacks? Tks.
I’ve been posting under just Linda but I notice another Linda hence the “Another Linda.” I guess I could be considered a “newbie” because this is my first year to post anything. But I’ve been following this site for several years now. It is, by far, my favorite BB spoiler site. Thanks, Janet and best wishes on your book!
Janet, I just wanted to show you some love and appreciation for your great BB Blog. Thanks!
I wish I had a pic of Kalia’s expression when Julie told her she was evicted from the BB house. That was PRICELESS!
I also wish I could re-watch the entire season with Shelly to see if she realizes that a) she not only was a liar but a really bad liar and b) that Danielle played her like a fiddle.
At this point, I am cheering on Rachel because I think she’s fought harder than anyone else in the BB house this season. I don’t really care who gets second although Portia probably deserves it more than Adam or Jordan.
Thanks again Janet. I’ll be looking forward to your BB Blog next season!
You’re right, Janet. I know someone who is going thurogh something similar right now. We know God uses these things to teach us, but that doesn’t make it easier.
Yay!! I’m a newbie to your blog as well but I’ve been watching BB since it started!! Can’t wait until your blog for next year!!
Wed BB After Dark observations: Entire 3 hours Adam, Rachel & Porshe happily played cards in the HOH room. Downstairs, Jordan packed her bags. My guess: Adam won HOH, Porshe won POV, Jordan will be evicted.
Janet, I’m a newbie who is so grateful that I found your site this year. Only hate that I didn’t find it sooner! Your posts gave me insight when I watched the episodes, and I saw things in a whole new light. Thanks so much for your posts and spoilers. Your comments were spot on and I agreed with you wholeheartedly for the most part. Never really liked Rachel, (still don’t) but of the three (Adam, Porsche, Rachel) she deserves to win the most. I will be back next year. Keep up the good work!
Janet I am a vet as I have been with you for a few years now. As always I appreciate all that you put out here for us to read, ponder and debate 😉 I think your site is the best! Like Susan I agree with most all your views. I agree that this year fell way shorty of how last year went. That is why I didn’t really comment too much this year. Next year will be better 😀 Wish you all the best with your book and all of your endeavors. I will try to check out the link you put there if my (big brother) at work lets me in…lol Again thank you so much for running this site!
I meant fell way short not shorty lol
Tom – Thanks, Corey. I’m pretty sure Ellie wore those shoes (along with her prsencis dress) to church. Our kids are keeping us very entertained these days.
I’m a vet when it comes to watching BB. I have watched every season and for the ist time bought the live feeds. I was disapointed by the feeds going out constantly – it was frustrating to watch and except for a tibit here and there didn’t learn anything extra about the game than watching it on T.V. I also found that mostly the four cameras only coverly 2 views of the house sometimes even 1 . I’m not complaining just offering contructive critism.Hoping that the feeds will improve next year. I’m hoping that my comments are passed over to BB. The TV show spent far to much time re-caping what we had already seen. One show last week spent 30 minutes on re-caps??? None of this would have bugged to if the people were interesting. Apart from Jeff, Brandan, Danyelle and Racheal the rest were severely lacking in personalities. Constantly lied but were never called out on it. Sorry for this . I really did appreciate your blogs.
Really going to miss reading all about BB because of you Janet…please come back next year.
well, unfortunatly it looks like rachel is going to win but of the 3 left she deserves it ( stupid people should have gotten rid of her weeks ago )..hopefully she just fades away never to be heard from again………btw did anyone else notice now much her face looks like a chicken in the purdue chicken commercials sometimes ???? i’m serious
And another thing about FNKC is that I qteiusoned the entire time whether the author even knew how to knit. I don’t remember all the reasons I got the vibe, but the main one was that knitted ballgown? Really? Come on.Sorry about your Borders. I’m guessing ours is on the way as well, but at least we have a B N close by. I may go patronize it today to help make sure it doesn’t have the same fate
Undeniably imagine that which you said. Your favorite justification appeared to be at the net the easiest factor to have in mind of. I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people think about issues that they plainly do not recognize about. You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest as neatly as defined out the whole thing with no need side-effects , other folks could take a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thank you
