Big Brother 17: Season Finale Blog Party

The Final Three bid adieu to us

Liz spelled it out, Sneaky Steve nudged it
Well, this is it. We're at the season finale, another summer of voyeurism finished. This morning, before the live feeds shut down, the final three said farewell. Liz was the most excited and happy. Steve said the fact he's there proves that if you really want to be on the show, you can do it. Vanessa was a bit more like Tommy Chong. She's not a morning person.

Before we get on with the show, we have a few bits o' bizness to attend to:
  • Both the Survivor and The Amazing Race blog pools are open for signing up. Please do not sign up on this BB17 season finale post! The sign up posts are at: Survivor Blog Pool and The Amazing Race Blog Pool.
  • As for this season's BB blog pool, the remaining contenders are:
Liz - Skyriverblue, jo Chapman, monty924
Steve - KelseyNY, Carrie, K
Vanessa - Chacha, Heather Reyes, T-Town Chick

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll be updating this post with the major events (and perhaps a few minor thoughts thrown in). Refresh the page to get the latest news. As always, the real party is in the comments section! Come join in on the fun!

We have to get through the season recap first. Oy. Finally, we should be getting to the first part of the final HOH ... please! Please? Finally! We're to the swinging and dunking apple hamsters. The winner of this round skips round two and vies in part three with the winner of two. Got that?

All three are still up when a taunting voice tells them to slide down from the disks and sit right atop the apples. Please note this voice was never on the comp in the live feeds! Steve is out first. Vanessa sats that she can hang on for longer to psych out Liz ... claims she has another ten hours in her. She mouths final two at her while Steve's back is turned. Liz drops. Vanessa wins Part One!

Liz thinks she HAS to beat Steve in the next part, so she isn't trusting any deal with Vanessa.

It's onto Part Two. It's crossword puzzle format. Steve is thrilled because he likes puzzles. It's BB-related and they have to climb up to put their answers in. It's timed and Steve went first.

The time:
Steve - 28:22
Liz - 31:11

Steve wins Part Two and will go against Vanessa in Part Three!

Dr. Will's Roundtable with the jury! Yes! Johnny Mac joins them. Heh. Austin is shocked that Liz is working with Vanessa against Johnny Mac. Will brings up that he's being hypocritical. Heh. Jackie and Shelli talk about how much Vanessa is playing the game. James thinks she's been playing very well.  Austin and Becky seem bitter.

Shelli thinks Steve did brilliantly social. Johnny Mac calls him a rat. Julia thinks he's cowardly. Jackie thinks highly of Liz's game. James thinks Liz should win because she's in the house and they're all out there. Johnny Mac thinks other people (Vanessa) ran Liz's game.

Final Part of the Final HoH Comp! Vaness and Steve are on Scales of Just Us, have to prove how well they know the jury. A statement with two possible endings. Eight questions.
1. Steve 1, Vanessa 0
2. Both wrong
3. Both right
4. Both right
5. Both wrong
6. Both right
7. Vanessa right. A tie.
8. STEVE

STEVE WINS THE FINAL HOH!

To the living room. Steve EVICTS VANESSA! He went on about her being such a strong player and the move he had to make. Liz is in shock.

Vanessa admits to Julie that she wasn't going to take Steve to the final two had she won HoH.

Julie introduces the jury for the interrogation. They're happy to see Vanessa join them. They've agreed to three questions.

Johnny Mac - You relied on me or Vanessa for all you decisions. Tell me why I'm wrong. They can't hear him in the studio. We can.  He defends making the friendships, split the twin twist, work with Jackie, etc.

Becky - Liz, Austin created and influenced your strategy. What was your strategy? Liz says she aligned with Austin and Vanessa, target on back, did own campaigning.

James - Steve, sitting next to a player while you floated. Steve denies floating. Steve is defending himself quite well.

Liz - Biggest game move as individual? Aligning with strong competitors. (Um, individual?)

Jackie - Biggest function was a vote. Dang, he's being so well-spoken. The kid is prepared.

Austin - Why do you deserve to win the money over Steve? The twin disadvantage, want the money.

Well, Steve certainly after his initial nervousness, answered very well. Liz, not so much.

Final Plea time.
Liz - Not a big gamer, grew to love the game, Julia, incredible summer, three wins.
Steve - Prepared speech, played the game while Liz was in hotel, four HoH reigns, made moves making his own decisions, Liz followed others.

Voting time.
Shelli, loves both. Voting with heart.
Jackie - Congrats, proud of both, one who dreamed of it their entire life.
Becky - One person I'm proud to vote for.
Meg - Heart is torn, give credit to big moves.
James - Both amazing, let Jesus take the wheel.
Julia - My vote is obvious, but I love you both
Austin - Liz, love you. Steve, proud of you, Heart wants what it wants.
Johnny Mac - Choose between worst alliance ever member, can't think of insult for Liz.
Vanessa - No offense Steve, my vote goes for the person who I think best represents what this season stood for.

Non-jury hamsters time on stage. Da'Vonne disses Austin. Heh. Vanessa admits to being a millionaire poker player. Yawn. Jason gives Vanessa kudos for maneuvering through the game but disses her for not owning her game. Audrey is having time of her life, warm responses, gets teary.

The vote reveal --
Vanessa - Liz
Johnny Mac - Steve
Austin - Liz
Julia - Liz
James - Steve
Meg - Steve
Becky - Steve
Jackie - Steve

STEVE WINS BB17! Shelli also voted Steve.

Favorite Houseguest  -- Johnny Mac, James and Jason.

JAMES wins favorite houreguest.

Steve says he'll spend the money wisely and didn't expect to win.

That's the harshest welcome to the final juror that I can remember

Petals said...

Van looks like she's about to vomit. Maybe they gave her meds backstage (they must have).
Bwhahahaha

Anonymous said...

Maybe he will pass out from the stress lol

SueGee said...

Be careful Petals...don't mix the pain meds with Champagne. You might actually like van or aushole

Sharon N said...

No matter if Liz is 1 or 2, I'll bet Austin already has "her" money spent.

Petals said...

She is/was just so mean, Monty.

monty924 said...

This sucks for Steve

Anonymous said...

Let's hope this is a sign lol

Marybeth said...

I am just enjoying the look on Vanessa's face

monty924 said...

Good answer when he finally got to give it

Petals said...

LOL Sharon, you're prolly right. But I bet Aushole won't see Liz after tonight. Bwhahahaha

Anonymouse said...

Horrible answer Liz

Anonymous said...

ZING Lol

Ed in Ohio said...

Can I abstain & vote for neither??!!

Cheryl in NC said...

terrible answers by both

Sharon N said...

One can hope Petals.. when Liz's family puts a stronghold on her, or pulls him off her and casts him back into the DarkWorld. LOL

Petals said...

me too Marybeth!

All the Xanax in the world cannot soften this blow to her ego. If she were a different type person, I'd suggest that maybe she could use this as a learning experience, like maybe it would make her a nicer, more genuine human? But she is too psycho and too old to learn anything from this.

As I type this, she is chewing the inside of her cheek to keep from bawling.

Anonymous said...

They will send her to one of those reality show deprogramming camps lol

David said...

LOL, I can't wait to see the look on Vanessa's face. =) I don't want Steve or Liz to win either but I guess one of them has to.

Good job Steve on finally growing a pair.

Anonymous said...

He went to throw up lol

Sharon N said...

^^ Jon ^^ LMAO

Ed in Ohio said...

Steve had to make a pit stop

Becky said...

Cheryl, from your lips to the jury's ears!

Cheryl in NC said...

probably Jon...

Petals said...

They are ALL so anti-Steve, which is kinda surprising for me. Will this jury really give the money to Liz over Steve?

It'll be so disgusting if a recruit wins, especially this one, who played hide-the-pickle all summer with Sasquatch.

I'm getting scared.
What do you guys think??

Anonymous said...

He is just going to be such a flippin SPAZZ if he wins, I honestly keep waiting for him to do the splits and go "Superstar" lol

Marybeth said...

I don't think they write those questions, I think they are given them.

monty924 said...

Vanessa didn't get to ask that last question????? The third always gets the last question. HMM

Cheryl in NC said...

I cant imagine they give her the win petals....but who knows with the crew

IAgirlsmom said...

Surprised JMac is anti Steve. Vs Liz? Really?

monty924 said...

Marybeth, the jury always gets to pick three questions for each of the final two. At least since they've been doing the final this way.

Anonymous said...

regardless they better give him some of Vanessas medication asap lol

Marybeth said...

Oh I think they get to pick them, from a collection of those already written for them. The wording just doesn't sound like things they would say.

Petals said...

Will seemed to believe that, if he made F2, Steve'd have this in the bag.
But this is an exceptionally bitter and biased jury. They all mistreated
and discounted Steve all season, and now they can none bear to reward him, which
I chalk-up to jealousy.

Van didn't ask a question, hmmm. Clearly, she was too upset to speak. LMAO

Nickelpeed said...

I just do not think Steve played his own game until the very end. He was Vanessa's and Austin's pawn. He did what they wanted him to do. So did, Liz. I'm just not sure who I want to win. It's the wrong side for me. LOL

I'm not a Steve fan. He wobbled all the way through this game. He'd then cry when he did something he knew he had to do.

Anonymous said...

I don't like him. I'm sorry, I just don't he is not Ian

IAgirlsmom said...

Van doesn't like Steve's speech. She's pissed she didn't have him snowed.

Petals said...

Good speech, Steve! Way to keep it together, baby!

Vanimal is losing it. She truly is about to fall apart. Her being so upset is the best reward of the entire summer.

Petals said...

monty924 said...

Steve's to lose and I think he just won it

Marybeth said...

Interesting they are doing this so early. Usually they barely get the money out before the show ends.

Nickelpeed said...

He talks waaaaaaay toooooo much.

Cheryl in NC said...

oh Jon...he is definaetly no IAN!

Nickelpeed said...

Who do you think wins????

Who votes for who???

Anonymous said...

I think Jackie votes for Steve

Petals said...

Jackie looks great, that dress is perfect for her. GREAT VOTE, too!

monty924 said...

Jackie voted for Steve

Ed in Ohio said...

Neither one 'deserves' the money....but they're the last two standing (sitting).

Didn't care for this season and kinda disappointed with the outcome.

Petals said...

Ultimately, Steve is the superfan from birth, which should be a huge factor.

Nickelpeed said...

Yes, Jackie voted for Steve.

Ed in Ohio said...

I'm with Jmac!

Anonymous said...

Jace lol

monty924 said...

Ed, I wouldn't say that. I think Steve deserves it

Petals said...

Aushole, stop trying to be deep, you are an ass. And STOP calling Steve "boy". He BEAT YOU.

Ed, yes. This season was raunchy.

Vanimal casts a bitter vote for Liz. What a @)(%H#.

Oh, now we get to see Clay & Shelli reunited. Wonder if the Milfie Magic is still there?

Anonymous said...

Steve was looking awfully pale there for a while. I wonder how many times he threw up during breaks? Indygurl

Marybeth said...

Austin needs to realize that she isn't going to want a thing to do with him after this is over. I agree Petals, the "boy" thing is getting to me too.

Becky said...

Hopefully Steve can move out of the basement. He has grown up a lot.

Anonymous said...

32, he threw up 32 times lol

IAgirlsmom said...

Did Julie Chen already call aushole out on the boy thing?

Nickelpeed said...

Most people do not want Liz because she was with Austin. Steve did scamper a lot. He was always thinking. I just think he played with both sides. He'd run and tell Vanessa and crew everything the other side said. Then when he did something, he cried about it. What gives? Then you have Liz, who only made it because she was surrounded by people who helped her.

Hard decision.

Anonymous said...

They should have done this like 30 minutes ago so we could get some q/a with everyone or been able to submit questions for them to answer.

Nickelpeed said...

I feel the same about this year as I did when Andy won.

uncartie said...

Vanessa will be fine. She went out with class and she played a super

Clay isn't even looking at Shelli. Uhmmmmmmm.

Petals said...

OH geemony - she proposes to Mel

Petals said...

What a bragger. She is such a (word I cannot say). No one cares, Vanimal. Just like no one cared about Frankie.
You are disgusting.

Marybeth said...

I wonder if the rumors are true that she is getting a poker show on CBS.

Anonymous said...

LOL that was EPIC lol

monty924 said...

DRINK to Audrey's tears

Petals said...

Penny, I noticed that!!!

Yeah, he is 22. Two months to a 33 yr old is like a year. I think Shelli has a "talk" in her near future. Hope she can borrow Vanimal's waterproof mascara.

Nickelpeed said...

I is not her own poker show. The show she'll be hosting has been around for years. They've always had professional poker players host it.

You know Clay was like "Yes I'm that Clay from Big Brother Baby Girl, let's roll back to your place" lol

IAgirlsmom said...

I think it'd be really petty if Van voted for Liz to spite Steve.

Anonymous said...

Regardless of who wins this, it has been another awesome summer with all of you guys and Jackie for hosting us each year, I look forward to this all year and spending time with you guys!!!!!

Petals said...

GirlsMom, she DID exactly that. She even said, "no offense Steve..." before her vote.

monty924 said...

Steve wins

IAgirlsmom said...

Yes, Van is a you know what. Wow.

Petals said...

You too Jon!
We still have Survivor!

Marybeth said...

Can't believe how petty that was of Vanessa

Cheryl in NC said...

steve wins

Steve just don't puke on the stage :)))

Don't forget - we still have America Fave!!!

YAY!

WTG, Steve!!! This is a great ending. Or it will be if James wins America's Player.

Clay & Shelli need to get room! I noticed she went to him

monty924 said...

LOL @ Jon... sorry that Steve won for you, but I'm happy that Steve won even over my pool girl :))

SueGee said...

YEAH (Sipping a little)

Marybeth said...

Thanks again for all you do for us each summer Jackie. Will enjoy following along for TAR and Survivor like I do every year and waiting anxiously for the Sunday updates on Vincent!

Cheryl in NC said...

This is the ONLY place to be on show night!

Jackie S. said...

Becky - BTW -- It's JASON who lives in his mother's basement, not Steve.

Nickelpeed said...

All for his mom!

IAgirlsmom said...

I sure hope in interviews they call Austin out on the boy business and Vanessa on her vote. She's gonna have a good story to justify it.

Anonymous said...

I know Monty, he rainmanned his little butt off lol Honestly it's more about the show and all you guys and JULIE CHEN, it's all about CHENBOT :)

monty924 said...

Well my pool pick made it to final 2 and won 50K thanks to Steve

Petals said...

wow. wow. wow. wow.

Well, of the final 3, I'm glad it was Steve. I love it when a true fan wins, it preserves the integrity of the game.
I'm super-glad that America can see that deceit, threats, hysterics & bribery are NOT rewarded behavior. Even better was that NO ONE GAVE A DAMN about Vanimal's "big millionaire reveal". The better reveal was that she was shown to be a petty, nasty broad.

monty924 said...

YES YES YES... happy all the way around tonight

Awwww Austin NO STARDOM FOR YOU lol

Thank you so much Jackie, for another amazing BB season! You are truly the hostess with the mostest, and we owe all our summer fun to you & this blog. I need to remember to stop by the donation box on my way out...

Thank you Jackie! Thank you fellow posters. You guys rock and make this so fun.

Ed in Ohio said...

Jackie & all you great BB peeps are so much fun (much better than the show itself) Thanks for sharing this summer season!!

Petals said...

Aushole looks like he's gonna cry, too!

I love when the nice guys win.

Jackie. THANK YOU SO MUCH for hosting us. Now we go to double posts again for Survivor and TAR. Thank God they are not on the same night!

See everyone for TAR and then next Wednesday for Survivor.

Vanessa voted as a bitter Banana! Glad Steve won over Liz.
My favorite player votes finally counted! Yay for James!
And finally another year I lose in the pool. This year I was so close!

Chacha said...

Its been a great summer with everyone. See yall Next year!!
Jackie as always I have made a donation. Its not much but thank you for all you do.
Can't wait to see the videos of the interviews.

Petals said...

Seriously, thank you so much for your hospitality Jackie. This blog is the only place where people are nice to me, it's like my only family. I don't know what I'd do without this place.

I'm cleaning-up; the food is all put-away. I left a coupla bottles of champs & the kegs out, for West-Coasters and die-hard partiers (me).

Petals said...

Jon - please try to watch Survivor. This season is gonna be great! Even if you don't watch, you can hang here & bartend or something.

Chacha said...

Petals-
I also laughed when no one cared about her poker earning.
My husband and I laughed and high fived.
My dog thinks I am nuts when I was hooting and hollering when she was evicted.
For her to say she wouldn't have taken Steve to final two and then voted as a bitter banana just
shows the person she is,
She will be shocked when she finds out no one liked her.

Sharon N said...

Thank you for all you do Jackie!
Your pool parties are the best!!!

monty924 said...

Thank you so much, Jackie for another fun season and fun summer. BB wouldn't be the same without you. See everyone later at the Survivor pool and the BB only fans next summer.

monty924 said...

Jooonnnnuhhh, don't leave us. Stay and watch Survivor with all of us. If not, will see you next summer, but it would be cool to have you hang around. We don't have any Liz/Julie speakers on this season of Survivor but you're fun to hang out with. :))

David said...

Thank you Jackie for all you do and for putting up with us all summer. =)

Thanks to all the posters here also, you guys make this the best place to hang out all summer.

Vanessa was just evicted here, boy did she go out with a serious attitude. Barely saying congrats to Steve and Liz while running for the door. lol

Petals said...

Aushole is on super-thin ice. He knows that his scromance may not survive thru the afterparty. LOL
I mean, c'mon. He looks like shite. And Cody is there!

Petals said...

ChaCha, wouldn't you love to be a fly on the wall when, not just Vanimal but, Aushole & the twins get to see what we all really thought about them?
Austwins, in particular, have maintained the bottom three spots on the polls for at least 6 weeks! And these are the ones who thought they were shoo-ins for America Fave.

James was so cute when he won. He mouthed "JohnnyMac" before Julie announced, seemed like he was genuinely surprised when he was the winner!!!

Petals said...

Did anyone else notice that Julie almost grudgingly allowed Vanimal her 60 seconds to make her big announcement? LMAO. And did anyone care? I am not near my DVR now, so I can't re-watch, but I remember that Julie C was kinda rushing her thru it (as tho it were a last-minute "wait a second, van has something to say.." kinda thing.)

Did anyone else get the impression that the only person impressed with Van was Van?

And thus - this season had the MOST arrogant HGs ever packed in to one house.

Petals said...

Love how DaVonne totally shredded Judas. And she looked so beautiful.

Petals said...

Audrey looked really pretty, too

Petals said...

0h, I just notice - as she is signing-off, Julie Chen says "...and if YOU would like to be a part of next season's Big Brother..." Aushole is behind her, shaking his head and making a face. WTF

Sharon N said...

Not much smiling from Austin tonight.... especially after the 3 AFP names were read and his wasn't one of them! LMAO

David said...

I did notice those things Petals. =) Show just ended here. I can't wait to see the interviews when they get posted online. There is going to be some serious soul searching going on by a few of them. I also hope the Austwin does not make it through the after show party.

Sharon N said...

Petals, I noticed the same things.

Aushole was NOT happy during the entire show... mebbe because he wasn't The Show? I'm sure he would have like to had more attention on him because of Liz's F2 position, and I'm sure he expected (at least) to get AFP, but.... lol

During Vanessa's big announcement, I didn't notice any oohs/aahs coming from anyone, including the audience (but they knew anyway). My view could be skewed, but seemed to me that she only got polite applause.

SO happy for JAMES!!!!

Sharon N said...

David, you KNOW Aushole already had HER $$ spent.
I hope her family gives Liz good advice and that she will pay attention to them... and NOT spend it all on the Sasquatch.

Chacha said...

Petals-
I noticed how unhappy Austin was as well.

David-
I stayed up and watched the backyard interviews. Can't believe I was awake that long.
Vanessa still is in player mode. There was a great exchange between her and Ausshole.
They are still bickering.

Jeff(bb17) was not interviewed by Jeff (bb11&13). I have to wonder if its because of his knew employment. Not sure what it is but as one point he said he was backing out of social media for a while.

After reading a few articles and seeing some interviews I am happy with the winner.
It wasn't my choice for a final three but with what they had the correct winner won.

I was happy that Jeff did bring up to Liz that she wasn't in the game for 85 days. She had 40 days of off and on where she was in sequester and was able to watch past seasons and movies. She was still screwing up questions& answers and still said she rode Austins coat tails.

There is alot of talk of people saying Vanessa wasn't bitter in her vote. She voted Liz because of a closer relationship. I am calling the BS flag on that.

Sharon N said...

Thanks for the interview links David!

Petals said...

Did anyone notice that Vanimal was VERY medicated when she did the Jeff backyard interview? He could barely get a word in, she was spastic & all over the place!
And bitter. She seemed still SO bitter to me, even in her drugged-up state.

And Clelli - what a mess. Clay was polite, but it sure didn't seem like his heart was bursting like Shell's was. He plans to honor The Date in Texas, but she acted like they'd be picking-out China patterns, lol. I can ivory imagine the plethora I'd nubile, smart & beautiful Texas girls he's been spending time with at school; can't imagine
Shelli has a chance anymore.

Does anyone know if Rachel had her party and, if so, was it streamed? Are there links?

Sharon N said...

OMG, Vanessa's interview with Jeff.... and the video of her with Austin!!!
It was like she was on speed with both.... obviously, she was still in game mode and not ready to give it up!




Delee said...

I decided to do the Windows 10 update during the show...well it messed up my puter so I could not comment. Took an hour at Best Buy this morning and $40 to get me up and running.

Thrilled that Steve won and Vanessa was shut out. Also her gloating about the $4+ million she had won playing poker really turned me off. Happy James won the Viewers Choice but would have been happy with any of the three winning it.

Petals said...

Delee - what bad timing to have computer problems, huh? LOL
Agree about the gloat. That little stunt was very MTV Cribs circa 1994. Not classy at all.

Chacha said...

Petels-
Rachels party is tonight I believe and they will be doing some periscope according to Brendan.
Don't think it will stream like it did a few years ago. Please don't quote me on that. I don't want Vanessa to rip my head off

Sharon N said...

Delee, sorry about the updating your 'puter problems, but most of all, missing out on the party!

Win-10's format is much easier to deal with than Win-8/8.1 (i.e., toggling between desktop and apps screens isn't necessary now).

I've updated 4 laptops at home with Win-10 ... 2 were Win-8.1 and 2 were Win-7.
The only issues I had were with the Win-7's not wanting to completely download Win-10.
After 5 or 6 computer restarts (showing updates that were waiting), and restarting the Win-10 update, it finally completed. I have no idea if this is true or not, but maybe the issues I had were because of the "updates waiting" ... maybe they needed to be installed 1st.

Petals said...

and SHAME on Vanimal for talking about her period during her exit interviews. To explain her over-abundance of tears, she said she gets emotional every 28 days. Well, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe she cried on AT LEAST a 3x weekly basis.
Here she is, talks & walks like a guy, dressing like a dude, then she undercuts all her feminazi BS by claiming to be felled by her period every month.

What a crock! Hey, psycho? You need a new doctor to up your meds!

Well it's goodbye till next year. One reality show is more than enough for me. :) Thanks everyone for your comments and the fun we had. Monty,your knowledge of the game is astounding and I'm always in awe of it. Sharon N,Love your comments too. David,JOnMD,Nicklepeed,ChaCha,Becky,Cheryl in NC,Ed in Ohio,AgirlsMom,love all you regular posters.

Petals,Your bitterness towards Vanessa is incredible. I noticed you also have it in for Shelli. Obviously you have a problem with successful women. How sad.

Vanessa went out with class and her head held high. Yes she was disappointed when Steve voted her out and you could clearly see it but she was a good sport about it.
She told Jeff that she's ready to come back any time they call. I say it's time for another All-Star cast.

Jackie,Thank you for all you do. Can you believe I got through the whole summer without accusing CBS of a conspiracy? Hmmm,Could it be that every single episode until last night went my way? :) Yeah,that's a good bet.

Hi Petals
It's me your new found friend, I got ill yesterday, my other daughter (they are twins) came in from Chicago to see me, and decided to update my computer to windows 10 and the same thing happened to me, she took it in for me this morning, so I missed the blog party but I did see the show, how great was that.

Petals said...

Hey new friend!
Sorry you missed the party, it was crazy! What a great ending, tho!
So what may we call you?
(Petals has been a nickname that I've used online since 1996. My real
name is Jodie)
Anyway, I'm REALLY glad you're still here. :) Enjoy your visit with your family.

Uncartie - lol. I'm not that easily baited. A) I don't consider Vanimal a woman, really, and B) Shelli doesn't bother me. I feel sorry for her in the Clay thing, but I really don't
have a feeling for her one way or another. I LOVE good, beautiful, strong ladies.
So, not sad. What is more curious is your weird need to "dig" at me, when I never personally
go at you. But hey, whatever cranks your tractor...

Sharon N said...

Uncartie,
Although I enjoy TAR (for seeing the world), I actually like BB and Survivor more.
We'll miss your comments during the Survivor and TAR parties, but look forward to seeing you next summer.

Sharon N said...

Petals, thanks for the Wil link. :)
He had most of the people nailed... the train was hysterical!!!

David said...

If Jeff (BB17) did not do a backyard interview then I guess I only missed Jace. lol Poor man got erased from the wall and I could not find an interview with him.

I did want to see how confrontational Vanessa would have been if she was in the final 2 with the jury, but I am happy with the outcome. Better than the coronation they gave Derrick last year. Made for much better TV.

I did enjoy the interaction with Austin and Vanessa video, she just can not turn it off. It will probably take her a while to come down, I mean decompress, and get back to normal. I don't remember her being that way on the poker shows I have seen.

I also had to force a restart a couple of times when installing windows 10 on my windows 7 PC. But it seems to have gone fine in the end. I have a clone HD of windows 7 I did before upgrading so I can go back in a couple of minutes if I ever need to. I am glad I skipped windows 8/8.1. When I read the reviews of it I rushed out and bought a windows 7 PC before they became unavailable.

I'm going through serious BB withdraw today, LOL. Time to start the countdown until next season. Thanks uncartie but I've always said that I have a lot of empty space in my brain for useless knowledge and that's where I store all of it, lol. I really do love BB and it is definitely my favorite reality show out of all of them. To Petals, Sharon, Becky and everyone who posts here regularly during BB, I'm looking forward to Survivor now. It's going to be a great season. For those of you who don't comment on Survivor, I hope you reconsider.

CHEERS everyone :))

Sharon N said...

David, although Vanessa was the most "deserving" this year, I can't help but be glad she didn't win.. only because I didn't care for her style of game play. I didn't mind the lying so much because it's part of the game, but as Jason said, she never owned up to it in DRs. Her constant crying (fake or real), paranoia, and round-robin fast-talking made me want to run screaming from the room.

Win-8.1 handled some of the issues people had with Win-8, and Win-10 is very much like 8.1.
The best improvement is not having to toggle between the desktop and App screens. My brother-in-law has Tech Fear (cell phones stymie him), but he got used to 8.1 and 10 easily. The biggest thing most people don't like (since Win-8) is having to enter a password upon startup. To my mind, it only takes seconds to do, and it's an important level of security.

Sharon N said...

Monty,
Me too!!! It doesn't seem right not having an eviction tonight!!!

David said...

I am also glad Vanessa didn't win, I just thought her interaction with the jury would have been interesting. Since she was still at it with Austin later, she probably could have blown it with them. Not owning her own game.

That is one of the first things I did was turn off the password upon start-up. It was easy to do. The next thing I did was install all of the desktop games from windows 7 that were removed in windows 8/8.1/10. They have most of the games through the microsoft app but I liked being able to play them off line and with no ads.

Why do I find myself coming back here again and again..... Because I am also having BB withdraw!! LOL

It has been a fun summer hanging out with everyone here. =) And for those of you not interested in Survivor or TAR I hope to see you all back next year.

Thanks again for all you do Jackie. It is much appreciated by all of us.

Everyone have a great year and hope to see you at the Survivor and TAR Blog parties. =))

Well BB17 is over. Wasn't one of my favorite seasons but Jackie's Pool Parties & all the great company on here makes it all worth while. Like my 'Hommie' Monty, Big Brother is my favorite reality show. I've been watching since the very beginning when my namesake Eddie (he of one leg) won the very first show.

I'd like to give a special thanks to Monty & Petals for giving me such a warm welcome several years ago (I think it was season 7 or 8) when I accidentally stumbled into a Big Brother Pool Party.

And Jackie's site is awesome! All the timely, witty updates along with the cleverly captioned screen caps make the BB experience all the more enjoyable. Kudos Jackie!

I'll definitely be partying in the Survivor pool & will make an extra effort to jump in the TAR pool when I can (Fridays are a little difficult for me).

A sincere Thanks to you all! Hope next season will be the best one yet! ;-))
