Big Brother 12: How Did Big Brother 12 Go So Wrong?

Just what does
"Meow Meow" mean?
I seriously have no clue where we went so wrong with this season of Big Brother. But being the overachiever I am, I will try.
First the whole saboteur twist was beyond lame. Not to mention all the hype that fell flat, in typical Big Brother fashion, when Annie was evicted the very first week. Nice work.
Then, America “chooses” Ragan as the substitute sabo-hamster and what did they make him do? Leave a note under Enzo's pillow. That's the best we could come up with? What about a sabotage that actually could affect the outcome of the game?
What about the saboteur telling everyone he could see all the diary room footage? Or making up a special secret power? Even if it wasn't true, could you imagine the ensuing insanity?! Insert evil laugh here. Something, anything to raise game-related hamster paranoia; that’s what we’re all here for!
The house guests this season depressed me in a way I have difficulty expressing. Since they are the big topic of conversation, I'll start with Brendon and Rachel, aka Brenchel.
You should know that deep in my heart I am a hopeless romantic and watching other people fall in love makes me feel all warm and fuzzy, like downing three or four shots of really good tequila.
But I am unable to appreciate a Big Brother romance when it kills the game of those involved, and that's exactly what happened.
This is a game, to win money, not to fall in love with someone who is competing against you for 500k. For me it's all about the money. They were both on the fast-track to win but their hearts got in the way.
In the words of the great Lorelai Gilmore, “Once your heart gets involved, it all comes out in moron.”
At first I liked Rachel. She seems like a really sweet girl, beneath her fake boobs, fake hair and lack of pants, but she fell out of favor with me during the whole "I am Vegas, Brendon" conversation.
Elvis is Vegas, Wayne Newton is Vegas. Sweetheart, you don't even come close.
It does not take talent to con men into buying drinks and giving large tips. Any girl can bat her eyelashes and wiggle her assets. For some reason this reminds me of the bend-and-snap advice of Elle Woods in Legally Blonde, but whatever, I digress.
I feel the need to bring up that someone who is “Vegas” should be all about the money, not throwing it away on some dude. Vegas = Gambling = Money.
She has a degree.....
