America’s Choice Becomes Big Brother’s Reject
by The Scribe - Canada.com
‘America’s Choice’ becomes ‘Big Brother’s’ reject, what went wrong,
how could America have been so wrong as to vote someone back into the
house that got immediately and unceremoniously set up to be tossed
from the ‘Big Brother’ house.
We could do a simple postmortem and say, “well Jennifer lied” but that
doesn’t wash because that is what ‘Big Brother is all about, lying,
misleading and manipulating. We could also say Kaysar made the second
dumbest move in ‘Big Brother history, (The dumbest move remains
Marcellas because he directly effected his own demise) by making a
deal with Jennifer and believing she would keep her side of the
bargain.
The internet fans have been outraged that their beloved Kaysar became
an instant target. One web site even went so far as to mislead it’s
readers into believing there was cause to have Jennifer expelled from
the game because she leaned on the glass or shut her eyes during the
‘Head of House competition, however that came prior to the rule change
and any reputable site would have checked their facts prior to
publishing such a story.
I am in total empathy with all the fans of ‘Big Brother’ that are
outraged at the fact they spent so much time voting for Kaysar to be
‘America’s Choice’ only to see him met with immediate rejection by the
majority of ‘Big Brother” house guests.
This brings us back to the beginning of this piece, what went wrong?
What is the real cause for Kaysar being so easily rejected after 5
million votes were cast, 82% of which went to choosing Kaysar
‘America’s Choice’?
The real cause for this travesty requires just a little background.
There are over 50 editions of ‘Big Brother’ aired around the world,
not one of them has this problem where the houseguests can totally
ignore the viewing fans. In all the other ‘Big Brothers’ except for
the American version, the house guests have to remain constantly aware
of the viewing fans and their possible judgments. Think for a second,
would Jennifer or anyone else in this issue of ‘Big Brother’ risk a
broken deal or a serious lie if they realized their actions would
result in immediate consequence from the fans?
Don’t blame the players of this issue of Big Brother for getting away
with what they can, the production team of Shapiro and Groden had to
know exactly this would happen and absolutely meant it to happen,
believing you the fan would love it.
Originally when ‘Big Brother’ was conceived the fan was actually ‘Big
Brother’ and that is how it began in America. After the first season
of ‘Big Brother’, the production team was changed to Shapiro and
Groden, and their need for more control immediately removed fan voting
for evictions, that is when our version of ‘Big Brother’ stopped being
‘Big Brother’ and became ‘Liar’s Dice’
Now I ask you, what is the point of having America’s Choice, if the
houseguests in no way have to respect your choice? If you the viewing
fan were the voter for evictions how would this scenario with Kaysar
be played out? I won’t answer that question for you, because I am sure
all of you would have some very good answers. The important point here
is that YOU the viewing fan do not have the vote and for all
intentions and purposes were lead to waste your time voting to help
‘Big Brother’ make a sock full of money from the text message voting
and the increase in revenue due to the increase in ratings the event
generated
You as fans complain about the lying and lack of integrity in the
house, obviously it is something you would like to have the ability to
control. You are only going to get that control by forcing the
production team to bring back fan voting for evictions. You can do
this by taking action, making phone calls, sending emails to all the
important players in this show. I have provided a list of email
addresses and phone numbers below; if you care about this show, take
some action NOW.

Will America Bring Back Kaysar? Please?
by Angel Cohn
Kaysar Ridha, 24, who was voted out of the Big Brother house last week, is hoping that the famed Godfather: Part III quote — "Just when I thought I was out... they pull me back in" — will apply to him come this Thursday, when either he, Michael or Eric gets a new lease on life. (In a "twist" for BB, America has been given a chance to bring back one of the three eliminees who chose to stay sequestered.) TVGuide.com caught up with Kaysar after his eviction to see why he thinks he deserves that second chance.
TVGuide.com: Well, the good news is you might get to go back.
Kaysar Ridha: It's great news, absolutely. I think I really have a good shot at [it], knowing how I played the game.
TVGuide.com: Why should people vote for you instead of Eric or Michael?
Kaysar: I believe I played this game to the best of my ability, and with integrity. I believe I earned people's trust and respect. I play the game and don't really bash people's character as a means to winning the prize.
TVGuide.com: I probably shouldn't admit this — journalistic integrity and all — but I voted for you a few times already.
Kaysar: Thank you! I'm flattered.
TVGuide.com: Well, you earned it, because as Head of Household you were behind one of the biggest upsets in Big Brother history.
Kaysar: It was a promise that I made to the viewing public — and to myself and those I kept close to me. I told [those involved] that it's not over yet [when I was nominated]. I sort of sat quietly while they were planning things that I was very unhappy with, and I kept telling Michael and Janelle and those around me, 'Don't talk back, don't use their methods of getting to them. You have to get even, and the only way to get even is to upset the balance of power and really, really stick it to them."
TVGuide.com: You were really quiet until Michael was evicted.
Kaysar: I would have loved it if Michael was there to share in the joy of being HOH, but I felt as though he was taking things the wrong way and letting things get to him.
TVGuide.com: Did his eviction speed up your strategy at all?
Kaysar: No. I wanted to maintain consistency. I wanted to make sure that I stayed dormant. The beauty of the whole plan is that people thought I was naïve, they thought I was doing things for certain reasons. They had no clue as to what I was thinking. Not even the people close to me did.
TVGuide.com: Were you surprised when Maggie became HOH and decided to use your plan against you?
Kaysar: Maggie's actions were expected. I kind of spelled it out for the whole house that you can't play based on your emotions. I expected them to mimic my strategy.
TVGuide.com: Were you excited to go on the show?
Kaysar: Do you want my honest answer?
TVGuide.com: Of course.
Kaysar: I had a lot of apprehension. I wasn't very excited, because given my race, ethnicity and religious background, I was afraid of how I was going to be depicted. I wanted to be on my best behavior. I knew it was all or nothing — I was either going to not do it, or I was going to go in with every ounce of whatever it is that I've learned throughout my life.
TVGuide.com: Do you think you did a good job?
Kaysar: I left that house with a smile on my face. I left hugging every single person and every person respected me. I didn't get angry and I didn't feel bad, because I went out honorably.
TVGuide.com: Do you think your housemates learned a lot about your religion?
Kaysar: I think so. My intention was not to turn it into some kind of Sunday-school environment; I just wanted to bring a human touch to what being Muslim is. If people had questions or wanted to bring something to the table, I was very willing to converse with them. Other than that, I wanted to put religion, ethnicity and race on the back burner.
TVGuide.com: Do you think you'll keep in touch with anyone other than Michael?
Kaysar: I feel as though Janelle is a good friend of mine now, and I feel just the same with Howie and Rachel. They are sensible, smart and strong individuals who, when given the opportunity to backstab me, chose not to.
TVGuide.com: For all your fans, I have to ask: Are you dating anyone?
Kaysar: [Very flustered] I'm not dating anybody. I'm not sure how to answer that question. I'm at a loss for words. I can ramble on about anything except this.
TVGuide.com: You are surprised that people find you attractive?
Kaysar: I am surprised, I wasn't prepared for this.
TVGuide.com: Sorry, I didn't mean to embarrass you.
Kaysar: I'm not embarrassed... just a little red right now.
TVGuide.com: All right, I'll go easy on you now. What do you plan to do after the whole Big Brother experience?
Kaysar: Coming into this house, I wanted to sort of discover what I was capable of doing, and I think I've gotten a good understanding of that. Now I want to go out and really apply myself. I plan to really make a difference. You never know what opportunity may present itself after this.
