Diane Henry Dishes BB Season 10

LOS ANGELES (CBS) ― So everyone keeps asking me what my thoughts are on the latest "Big Brother" season thus far?

And what would my BB summary be without true honesty, humor -- and no filtration?

After meeting the cast and interviewing the newbies a week before the show aired, I definitely had my favorites picked. #1 being Libra and #2 being Brian.

Needless to say I was saddened to see Brian jump the gun and play like he was Dr. Will's understudy -- on speed. Like Will, Brian is super cute. But he shouldn't have tried to copy Dr. Will's game play!

As for Libra and the rest of the cast, almost none of them have been anything like the people I met during our pre-interviews.

My initial thought was -- "here's a complete cast that's finally got some substance & brains!"

Almost as quickly as I starting rooting for Brian, I realized I was pretty much wrong.

Narcisism seems to be a theme this year for the show. And are they having a contest for who can scream at someone else the most?

And Renny? When I first met her, she was so out there and so...well, REALLY out there, I thought from the get go, she doesn't stand a chance. 

Not only is she now sitting pretty, and this week's HoH, she jumps up higher, each week, as one of my favorites. 

While I really haven't started rooting for anyone after Brian got kicked out, I am rooting at the very least for a few people to hopefully stay a few more weeks, at least. Namely Dan and Memphis. 

On a completely different note, how about Ollie and April having sex in the house!? Whoa! I personally know that inhibitions get tossed the second you enter this BB fantasy land, but do these two remember, uh, people back home ARE watching? I know if my twin was me and I was April, I would be in trouble when I got home.

She'd probably shun me out of the family, not to mention smack me in the face the second I got off the plane. I'm trying not to judge Ollie or April, we're all human right?

Another highlight this season? The competitions and the games have been great! The games get better every year. I would have loved to trudge through 80 lbs. of honey! Instead, I got to throw condiments or swing giant golf clubs.

There have been lots of good physical competitors too, Memphis, April, Michelle, Keesha and even Dan -- once he stops throwing comps. Dan, I really liked when meeting in person. His "America's Player" forced hug with Jessie -- for 10 seconds? That was...priceless.

Almost as funny as the entire house sucking it up for a fast minute to sing Keesha the most hateful version of happy birthday I've ever heard.

I was a bit dissappointed with the return of the former houseguests though for the food comp last week. They nicely picked my old housemate Jase (Love Jase!) but I thought they could have shown just a little more of the past players.

Not to mention Matt's comment about Natalie being in the bushes. Too funny, but not as funny as April's glaring at Ollie when he stood there basically applauding Janelle's beauty.

Overall thought? I think everyone is doing a fine job -- living in the house is not easy, trust me on this! -- and I wouldn't even start to predict who is likely to win at this point.

It really is anyone's game.

I suppose we'll just have to wait and see who figures out first that to win this season, you might not want to get into a screaming match with the current HoH!
