(S09E31) Adam is safe and Natalie is on the block. She's been playing everyone against each other and now she's paying for it. Of course, in typical Natalie style, she's acting like a psycho, calling people out, and quoting Bible verse. Bottom line: This week the boys are in power. If Ryan and Adam wanted to be really devious, they should just split the vote and make Sheila decide.

Find out if Natalie is safe and what the boys decided to do after the jump.

(S09E28) So Ryan has won the power of veto and rectified Adam's stupid nominations. That means, this girl to the right and Team Christ (ridiculous name) is still in power. Now, I don't like James. But I don't like Team Christ either. Does that make me a bad Christian? What would that zealot Natalie say? I'm just so sick of TC thinking that they are the "chosen" houseguests and when things go their way, it's the work of God.

Okay, on to the review. Find out tonight's drama, who got evicted, and what happened in the HOH competition after the jump...

(S09E17) I have to say something before I start talking about last night. The Bible buddies segments on this show have saved the winter Big Brother in my opinion. Okay, maybe Big Brother 9 is still the worst season fans have ever seen, but the Bible buddies segments that feature Mattie, A-Baller, and Ryan are still pretty darn funny.

My review of Big Brother's fifth eviction ceremony and the sixth Head of Household competition is after the jump.

(S09E15) "The last one remaining above their disco ball will be the new Head of House." - Julie Chen

That's right. Before we can even think about getting to the nominations, Big Brother 9 has to finish up the head of household endurance competition which started at the end of the live show on Wednesday night. We last left the houseguests suspended on tiny platforms over disco balls hanging by chains. Now, they should have been playing "Stayin' Alive" but they must not have paid for the song. So there was silence ... and Natalie's never-ending voice.

(S09E14) I just need to take a moment to say, "I called it!" I knew from the very beginning when Sheila, during the first HOH competition, sat on Adam's lap and rubbed her boobs in his face. I knew that she didn't hate him. And I knew that while he thought she was annoying, he kind of liked her too. Some of you even pointed this out in your comments. And now, my BB friends, we have the confirmation. Adam gave Sheila $10,000 during the PoV competition on Tuesday night.

The funny thing is...well, there's two funny things. First, Adam has no job (except he doesn't know that yet). So, 10K probably would have come in handy. Second, Ryan took away Sheila's money when he won the Power of Veto. Okay, now I'm done and I can do the recap.

(S09E13) Take a look at this face ladies and gentlemen, because it was the catalyst for all the madness that went down in the house tonight.

The funny thing is, she didn't plan any of it. She has no real strategy in this game. She doesn't think more than ten minutes into the future as far posturing goes. And she thinks there are 27 letters in the alphabet. Enough said. Natalie is playing this game with love goggles on and, for better or worse, her undying obsession with Mattie has caused the biggest commotion in the Big Brother 9 house all season and I'm elated.

(S09E12) "We can only come out of this stronger." - James

I think he meant "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger." While Big Brother 9 probably won't be responsible for the physical deaths of any of the houseguests, it just might ruin whatever social lives they may have once had. I'm continually amazed by this group, usually not so much in a good way. I think I'm more amazed along the lines of Dumb and Dumber.

(S09E11) Expect the unexpected. Those of you who are dedicated BB fans know this phrase all too well. It could mean that your ex-boyfriend is getting thrown in the house with you. It could mean that your estranged father is one of your fellow houseguests. It could mean that your nemesis who you campaigned against is getting another chance at the Big Brother crown. Last night we evicted another houseguest, found out what the siren meant, and got a new HOH all in one hour. It's not going to be a really short season of BB after all!

A review of last night's Big Brother 9 follows after the jump...

(S09E10) "I'm between a Josh and a hard place." - Allison

When I was young, there was a show called Peyton Place -- a soap opera which, at the time, seemed to be the epitome of all soap operas past, present, and future. It worked its way into the daily vocabulary for any sort of high drama situation.

Why am I talking about Peyton Place in an episode review of Big Brother 9? I mention it because it has dawned on me that Big Brother 9 is Peyton Place zapped to the present day while on meth filled with exaggerated whacko characters and all the drama you can stand (or not). Those Peyton Place people had it easy!

(S09E09) Will the soulmates inside the Big Brother 9 house find true love? In watching this group, the only couple with any real possibility of even speaking to each other after the season ends would be James and Chelsia. Leading into tonight's show the commercials first focused on romantic possibilities between Ryan and Allison. Over the past few days, the commercials switched to a Joshuah and Allison blow-up.

Tonight was the nominations episode. Who's on the block and what else happened? Read on past the jump!

(S09E07) Alex is pissed and rightfully so. He hasn't done a single thing that would cause the other house guests to put him up for eviction, but due to the fact that he's tied to Amanda, he finds himself up for eviction.

How fair is that? Not remotely fair if you ask me, and this is coming from a guy who thinks Alex is a bigger toolbag than you could find at your local Sears and Roebuck.

For the first time I'm starting to thing this whole "soulmates" thing is incredibly unfair. I kind of felt this way in the beginning when Sharon got the boot thanks to her idiot ex-beau Jacob, but I feel much stronger about it this week.

(S09E04) It's another night in the Big Brother 9 house and the house is full of people in various states of unhappiness and discontent. Most prominently, Parker was extremely upset with Jen's antics so he decided to list out the "three steps of destruction by Jen."

A. She held the secret that her and Ryan were dating (then subsequently revealed it to the house).
B. She's cocky to a fault.
C. She's an idiot and he's the one who has to suffer because of her ignorance.

I can't really say that I disagree with any of his points. In fact, I'd probably add a few more items to the list.

(S09E03) Well, I didn't write up the reviewcap for the last episode, but I still find it mandatory to say that Jacob is an idiot. There's nothing worse than thinking your being cool and "stirring up the house" only to find that you're actually a moron and stirring yourself out of the house.I thought that Jacob and his "snake" fiasco was the stupidest thing a person has done thus far in the Big Brother 9 house.

I was wrong. The stupidest thing was actually done by Jen when she decided to let Parker know that she was dating Ryan. A review of tonight's Big Brother after the jump...
