Big Brother: Jen - "I Just Want To Crush Dreams"
Report and Commentary by Emma Brand
July 18, 2007

We started out this episode with the nominations that Jen made last time, and her explaining that she wanted to "crush the dreams of those that were this negative." Jen would like us to believe she is the most positive person you will ever meet. When she is not showing off her wares on the internet, mugging for cameras in the Big Brother House, or coming up with more ways to put "Jen" into sayings and phrases, she is volunteering at the Make-A-Wish Foundation, reading to the blind, and helping old ladies cross the street. Or she is coming up with lame ways to explain putting up Evil Dick (who hates her out loud) and his daughter, Daniele (who is stealing attention away from the men folk in the house). I am going to go with the latter, but feel free to make your own choice.
After reading about what is going on in the live feeds, and seeing the interaction between Dick and Daniele, I am convinced that the two of them came into the house playing together. It will turn out better for Daniele because Dick is going to try to be the Dr. Will to her Mike Boogie, and somehow position his estranged daughter for the money. All my dad got me when my parents got divorced was a puppy. Man, that Daniele sure is lucky. And apparently Daniele has some serious good vibes coming her way because Nick has now sold out his alliance because he wants her to know that he's developed serious feelings for her. How does Daniele show she trusts Nick? By telling him the biggest secret ever, of course! She won't turn 21 until August! Hold the phone! Now that is a secret. I swear, every time I watch a conversation between the two of them, I lose a couple of IQ points.
Dream Crusher
I don't think our good friend Am-Eric-A should have gotten credit for that halfway attempt at "sleepwalking." First of all, even though I campaigned for Jameka and Kail as my two favorites, Joe was the perfect choice to insure that Am-Eric-A failed at his task yet again. When do you think was the last time Joe threw someone out of his bed? I am not sure that has ever happened. So Am-Eric-A had to suffer the indignity of getting in bed with him, hanging out there, and still not getting credit toward his five tasks. Congratulations, us! We win on this one.
I also loved Jen's threats to everyone but Big Brother himself prior to the POV competition. That Jen! So Jen-dictive! So Jen-timidating! None of the houseguests were that impressed with her tactics. Daniele got so mad that her and her protruding collarbones yelled at Jen and threatened her back. And in the aftermath is when Jen made the most Jen-sational and self-revealing quote of the show, as she told Joe, "Sometimes I just forget that everyone is not me." In other words, she is so used to thinking about herself all of the time, she forgets that there are others out there who aren't her. Wow.
I would also like to welcome Jameka to the show! She got a full ninety seconds of airtime tonight. She even got in a couple of what can only be described as cross words before crawling back into the cave that she must have dug for herself. I would like to petition the producers of this show for more Jameka and less Jessica. Just a thought.
Quick note on the POV competition. Kudos to whoever came up with the theme of "Cutthroat Christmas" as it was one of the more original I've seen, and in a good way, even down to the prizes (although watching Jen prance around in her unitard was pretty brutal). Instead of Pickle and Jelly Bean Pie, we got curling and Christmas all wrapped into one. Excellent work. Also, it allowed for us to hear Joe refer to himself as a "beefy hot stud," which earned him irony points, and a quick guffaw from your writer here. I also loved that Daniele won the POV so that she could save herself.
So Jen, in her superhero outfit.....
