Big Brother 12

I had nothing else to do, nothing else to watch, so for the first time since "America's Player", "Evil" Dick, and Allison Grodner destroyed the series, I sat and watched the show.
One of the biggest mistakes I feel they make is the constant need for twists and where the mistake was for the longest time was making the twist about people who knew each other. I was so over the show that I don't know if they've been doing anything like that the past few seasons. But when I watched the season premier, the idea of the saboteur appealed to me. So despite my better judgment and a questionable cast, I thought I'd give it a try.

The idea of the saboteur, as I said, appealed to me. This being Big Brother, of course the execution of the idea would be completely wrong. The distorted videos, the ridiculous pranks, the midseason endpoint, and where the show goes horrendously wrong every time - the audience voting.
Instead of $50,000 if she can last until - week 5 was it? - make it $10,000 for every week she survives up to the final four. Stupid pranks and audience voting? NO! Let the saboteur sabotage challenges and house guests' strategies!

Aaaaaaaaaaaand of course she was out week one. Hey, America! Tell us who we should waste an offer of $20,000 on!

Oh, that cast. All of the above wouldn't be so bad if there was just one person I could cheer for. The Buffoon Brigade is only doing as well as it is because there are NO OTHER ALLIANCES except Rachel and Brandon (and I'd better be careful about what I say, because I don't want to get between potential stalker who is ready to give up $500,000 after a week for a guy Rachel and her man).
As it is, the only person I want to see stay in the house any given week is Enzo, and only then because I'm not yet tired of seeing a grown man refer to himself as "Meow Meow".

Rachel is HOH again. Expect to see Kristen and Britney on the block as Kathy is less of a threat to getting between her and her man.

Gawd, this show is awful.
