As disappointing as this year's final two was, finale night is always exciting. Especially at my house. I always hold an annual finale night costume party, where we dress as houseguests. The numbers in attendance dwindles every year, but it's always fun, and tonight was no exception. Of course, your's truly played the part of Janelle, while Marcellas, Erika, and Boogie were all also in attendance. Sorry, no pics, my camera was acting up. Anyway, I guess I should start out from the beginning? The farthest back I can remember is when Janelle showed up to sequester for the debate and final two questioning session. She arrived in a short red dress and America's Choice tiara, how else? And she was all over Will, obviously oblivious to his current feelings. But I actually really enjoyed the debate. Although, it was definitly edited in Erika's favor, despite Janelle's overbearing opinions. The questioning was a little boring, but I liked Marcellas' question: What move do you think got you to the final two? He didn't impose his views into the question, and it was really open ended. And it was probably the only question that they both gave genuine answers to.
Next, the jury entered the live show. Janelle was wearing the same dress as she did to sequester, only in black, and Howie had obviously dyed his hair during the interim between questioning and tonight. (By the way: did anyone see April sitting in the audience? I love her, no matter how much I hated her last summer.) We also got to see the first five evicted houseguests. It's amazing how appearances change in, what, six weeks? Nakomis suddenly has short, choppy hair, Alison has extensions, and Diane has a mullet. But of course, Kaysar looked as sexy as ever. God, I want him so bad. Haha, it's so true, though. Anyway, it was painful when Janie had to watch James talking shit on her. And Kaysar looked really nervous when he told her. You could see her eyes get glassy, but she brushed it off her shoulder. I have to admit, Jase and Diane's "Brrring! Brrring!" skit was hilarious. Even though their alliance sucked. But I do have to give them credit, because I was definitly cracking up. And then Alison...oh, Alison! How heart-wrenching was that? I wanted to cry for Erika, I really did. But for some reason, she just sat there and said, "You know, we played each other." What? Just get mad, for once! Cry! Make him feel like the asshole he really is! Show some emotion, and let us know that you're human! She deserved to be able to sit there and act shocked and hurt. We wouldn't have made fun of her, or at least I certainly wouldn't have. I just wish she would have let Mike know that he's a dick. His "Girls, Don't Date Him" profile just doesn't do justice to the ass that he is.
So, it came down to the keys. And I was convinced Erika was taking the money. I was sure that at least Howie, Danielle, and Marcellas would vote for her. And I even thought George would jump in. But, wow...she got one vote. It was disappointing. You could see who's finger prints were all over that, and how they let him work them, even in SEQUESTER, who even knows? He must be incredibly charming in person or something, because sitting at home, I can give him credit, I can laugh, I can even root for him, but I am not convinced. And I can't imagine letting Will control my game...ever. The only person that wasn't blinded in that house was Kaysar, but the guy didn't even make it to sequester, which is a damn shame. If anyone should have won that game, it was him. Anyway, you live and you learn, and damnit! Janelle won $25,000! Who saw that coming? ;) Everyone...
It was real, it was good, it was REAL GOOD. So, until next year...get to steppin'!
