Afterthoughts
Man - does anyone else feel rushed? I do wish the finale shows were two hours. We could use the extra time to address other things that happened in the season - I mean, the Guinea Pigs didn’t even get their final say about being the last relationship standing! If I were them, I’d sue! There’s so much more that could be shown if only we had the time. The Evicted houseguests didn’t get to say hardly anything, though I was pleased with the amount of time they spent on the Round table this year, but during as well as Adam and Ryan’s reactions to it.
I thought the vote would be closer, I really did, right up until I watched the round table bit. Adam CLEARLY rocked the questions and answers, and Ryan floundered like crazy. There was no doubt in my mind that Adam would win then - and I wasn’t even surprised that Joshuah was the only hold out vote for Ryan.
James’ last comment cracked me up, and I’m absolutely THRILLED that he won the $25k. What made it better was ADAM being thrilled by it too - he was like a little kid seeing his friend win - all jumping up and down and hugging and yeah. Cute. Of course, Ya’ll know I think just about anything to do with James is cool x 10, so. Yeah. Whatever. *grin*
Now, just because BB9 is officially over (oh my bed is calling me, singing sweet nothings of full nights of rest and relaxation..) doesn’t mean we’re disappearing here at Big Brother Craze (And by ‘we’ I mean ‘me’ because I’m a one woman show, yo!). Nope, in fact I’ll still be here plugging away right up until July 13th, where we start it all over again. I’ve still got two interviews in the works, and will do my best to snag other’s as they get home. In the following week there will be many post-show interviews as well, and as they become available I’ll be sure and post them for you to enjoy. Dick and Daniele are interviewing in the back yard for Real, and CBS2 usually has quite a few interviews as well. Ryan and Adam will be on the Morning Show with Julie tomorrow, and there will be print interviews to dig up too.
So basically - keep checking back folks, there will be goodies to be found here often - enough to keep us going until we get a new crop of houseguests to snark on! And you all know how I love a great case of snark! Thanks for sticking around with me all season long - ya’ll are the best!

I was thinking the same thing, the show should be 2 hours. Maybe we should all write CBS for BB10. I thought Zach would win, but I did think Adam would get more then 1 vote. I wanted James to take the 25,000 & was happy he did. I noticed Adam’s reaction as well & it made me smile. Adam wasn’t a favorite, but he does seem like a very caring guy. I think the 25 might be better for James anyway, I don’t think he would have handled the 500, well.

A good reality finale is hard to pull off IMO … some people want more, some want less. I think I would rather have “rushed” than “dragging” because then the damn thing seems to last forever.
