Q&A With Big Brother Winner Adam | TV Show Recaps | 4/30/2008
Hey guys!One last piece of Big Brother 9 for you! My interview with Adam moments after Sunday's finale is now live. Below is an excerpt, as well as the link to the full Q&A. Share your thoughts below! — AdamTVGuide.com: You told the jury you would be giving some of the money to help disabled children. Do you plan to honor that statement?Adam: Ultimately the money is mine, and it's my decision. Being out of the house, I have to take time and see what was going on in the outside world without me there. I've heard there have been some instances that I was unaware of, but yes, I plan on doing the right thing with the money — what's true to my heart and fulfills my word to the jury. I want to help out children in need, bottom line. That's why I came into this house in the first place.TVGuide.com: Do you have any special plans to celebrate your win?Adam: I'm ready to paint the town and take my victory laps. I'm stoked. There are so many simple things you really miss out on b... read more
Big Brother's "Big Baller" Dishes on Winning Season 9 | Today's News: Our Take | 4/30/2008
When Adam Jasinski schemed with other final-three member Ryan to give his former partner the boot, he was the last of the Big Brother 9 contestants to break the "'Til Death Do You Part" theme. But in doing so, "Big Baller" earned himself one heck of an alimony payment. Moments after the Sunday finale crowned Adam this season's winner, the high-strung underdog chatted with us to discuss how crucial ditching his "soul mate" Sheila was to his victory, how he plans to spend the money, and what he thinks of the controversy some of his naughty comments caused outside the house. TVGuide.com: So how does it feel to be $500,000 richer?Adam Jasinski: It's an unreal feeling. I was confident that I was going to win for the last few weeks. But the more you think about it in the house the worse it is, so I just tried to put the thought out of my mind. It's great feeling, but I'm glad to be read more

With tonight's crowning of Adam as Big Brother 9 champion, that just about wraps up our coverage of the season. But below is a conversation between Krista and I about tonight's show and some overall thoughts about the season. We've enjoyed bringing you this blog, and look forward to doing it again when the next season begins in July. Happy reading, and, as always, share your thoughts as well! — AdamKrista: 6-1!. I'm so shocked!Adam: Yeah, me too. I'm disappointed, but I sort of expected it to be a landslide.Krista: Did you? Wow, I didn't at all. I thought for sure his demeanor at the round table was going to shoot him in the foot.Adam: Well, I should say before tonight I expected a landslide, but after the round table I did have second thoughts. But he played the charity card, which I think won some people over. Krista: Well, I hope he makes good on his promise.Adam: Me too.Krista: He's going to feel really dumb when he finds out he was fired for a comment about autistic kids a... read more
April 22, 2008 (Eviction 11) | TV Show Recaps | 4/23/2008
What has Big Brother taught us once again this season? You have to win competitions to go the distance. Sharon, the ultimate mole, survived much longer than she probably should have, but aside from winning one HOH with Joshuah, she's had a dry run. I would have been spilling the same story had Sheila (and her sob stories) been sent packing. Ryan (who it's no secret I've been pulling for from the beginning) really flexed his muscle this week, winning HOH, the luxury competition with Sharon and then the most important POV of the season. That's not to say he's got the game sewn up, because in my mind, he made a few mistakes this week. But we'll get to that later. First, how great is it that we get three doses of Julie this week? She popped up tonight for the eviction, and will be back tomorrow to determine the final three and, of course, for the finale Sunday. I never thought I'd say this early on, but I can't believe this edition is almost over. Oh well, bring on the summer! [In my be... read more

Usually I hate when they recap the eviction in its entirety, but this was by far my favorite eviction ever so reliving it was just the icing on my "Gnat is outta here" cake! The look of sheer desperation and dismay was priceless. The best part about it was that 30 seconds before Sheila put her out on her tookus, she totally screwed herself by admitting her loyalty was to the boys. Sheila was smart to take advantage of that and use it in her eviction speech. Thank God my cohort Adam did the recap for that episode because someone would have had to peel me off the ceiling for me to do it. I was on fire with glee.Ok so Adam was a big jerk and sold out Ryan by mouthing to Gnat that he was the vote for her to stay. This was despicable. The least he could have done was not verbalize it. If he wanted to give a knowing wink or even a glance I could have overlooked it, but he said it right in front of Ryan. What a moron! I'm glad Ryan called him out on it. I can't believe Adam tried to pass i... read more
