Just like that, what had been a shoddy rerun of last season became trash that required a strong stomach and impaired hearing to watch. And all it took was the adolescent narcissism braying and cackling from my television to accomplish it.
That's right. Allison Grodner can't seem to control whatever urge it is that compels her to foist hasbeens on us. First it was the four vets that strutted in on day one posing as "coaches". Then we had to suffer another visit from that roidhead Jessie Godderz who paraded through the Big Brother house like a Magic Mike castoff desperate for work. After that atrocity, Sunday night was just too much for my already sorely tested gag reflex to take. Pandora's Box belched up a prerecorded Rachel Reilly at her most obnoxious instead of Ian's parents, and he wasn't the only one who wanted to vomit.
If CBS can't or won't retire (terminate) Allison Grodner, can someone (anyone) please make her retire Pandora's Box? It's bad enough that the hasbeens are allowed to come in through the front door. They shouldn't be allowed to skulk in (electronically or in person) via a closet in the HOH room.
The rest of Sunday night's episode was dedicated to showcasing the power of puppet whisperer Dan. Unfortunately for the remaining puppets, it also cast them in a pretty unflattering light, especially Jenn. She knew Dan for the double dealer that he is when he didn't renom Shane after Ian won the POV during Dan's HOH reign on Thursday night. To my knowledge, she has not used this information to try to save herself, and can't (legitimately) blame anyone but herself when she gets evicted later today.
That will leave us with a Quack Pack final four *gags* whose members will be picked off by its leader on his way to pick up his check. Whether Dan will bloody his own hands or whisper at his puppets until they bloody theirs is the only unknown at this point.
Only eight more days until Survivor starts.
