As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll be updating and live-blogging away the best I can. Refresh the post to get the latest news! For more information on how I'll be handling this season on the blog as well as the show schedule, check this post out. As always, the real party is in the comments area -- join on in!
ALERT! ALERT! - Survivor: Ghost Island starts up next Wednesday! The blog pool is open but you need to sign up for it ONLY ON THIS LINKED POST. Requests not on that post might be missed. And, I don't think y'all know how annoying it is that every season people regularly in the pools want in after the deadline. If you want in on the blog pool, go to the post and sign up before the deadline. Please!
The recap ended and Julie tells us there are more alliances in the house than houseguests left in the game. She's so right about that!
Mark wants Brandi gone out of the Brandi/Ari nominations. We get the standard "I have to win veto" speeches.
Omarosa, like both Mark and James, wants Brandi out. James tells Ari that Brandi is the target. She's worried that Brandi will win veto.
Time for Omarosa's obligatory White House moment.
Veto Player random picks -- Mark got who he didn't want -- Omarosa. Brandi also got her nemesis James. Ari got Marissa.
Ross isn't playing his hand too well with Ari. Hmm.
Julie tells the house it's a double eviction. But they knew it had to happen.
A segment on Brandi acting out. She even dared people to say something bad about Julie. Then she decides to poke at James. She is right when she says he can be super cocky. Then Brandi gets upset at Marissa for not standing up for her.
PoV Comp -- compete one at a time at a secret location, then to HoH to watch the others compete. A BB Toy Company, action figure faces don't match the body. It's a morph type comp.
Omarosa up first. She tells us she doesn't want to win this veto and deliberately messes up. 38.52 minutes. She tells Ross that she thinks she should be the choice for a final two with him.
Ari up next. 9.10
James is up. Disqualified after he went past Ari's time.
Marissa is up. Disqualified after she went past Ari's time.
Mark is up. Disqualified after he went past Ari's time.
Brandi is up. Disqualified after she went past Ari's time.
ARI wins the Power of Veto!
Brandi wants Omarosa to be put in Ari's place. Mark isn't sure. He still wants Brandi out.
Mark tells James that he's nominating Marissa -- twofold in reasoning. He wants Brandi out and fears if he puts up Omarosa then Brandi might not be voted out. Plus Marissa has never been on the block.
Veto Meeting time -- Ari saves herself. Mark puts Marissa on the block.
Live Eviction One time --
Marissa - Won't campaign against Brandi, cancer survivor, love to family
Brandi - Amazing friendships, love a lot of you, hope Ari wins, shocked Omarosa and I get along.
The votes to evict:
James - Brandi
Ari - Marissa
Ross - Brandi
Omarosa - Brandi
No surprise here. Brandi is out. She was very good with Julie.
HoH Comp time - HG had the time to study works of art knowing they might be part of a comp. Sequestered in separate rooms. BB Auction. Questions on what they studied. True or False. Seven questions, point for each right.
Tiebreaker between James and Omarosa.
OMAROSA is the new HoH!
Live nominations -- Omarosa nominated Ross and Marissa.
Oh my.
Live veto comp! Art-Rageous. Six paintings, a replica in each of six rooms ... one not an exact match. Incorrect, eliminated. First one right wins.
ROSS wins the PoV!
The Veto Meeting. Ross saves himself. Omarosa puts James on the block with Marissa.
Live Eviction Two:
James - NO fun campaigning against Marissa. Consensus is no one can beat her in a final two. Keep me.
Marissa - Better chance of getting you to that final two!
Votes to evict:
Ari - James
Mark - Marissa
Ross - James
Buh-bye, James. He was cocky with Julie.
Sounds like they'll play an HoH before Sunday's show. Tomorrow is clips at 8pm ET/PT but the HoH will "start." (Probably not live.) I'll let you know what happens in a feeds report tomorrow.

Hi Jackie and everyone that follows!
Hi Jackie, how are you feeling?
HI Glenn
Hi Jackie, Glenn and Joe. I brought coconut shrimp with pina colada dipping sauce - over at the bar
Hi Joe! Double eviction night should be interesting1
Eh, Joe. Ask me after I've sat blogging this for two hours! But, thank you for asking.
Hi Monty! Ross really did make deals with everyone!
I'm still rooting for Ross but Ari has really surprised me with how smart she is with these people and the game. Love her.
I don't know why they want to diminish Omarosa. Whatever you might think of her politics or personality, she's a very smart, determined woman. Back on the original Apprentice, before it morphed into Celebrity Apprentice, they had very qualified business people on the show.
So funny how they do those DR confessionals after the fact, LOL
This has been a weird season. In some ways, these HGs have played harder and smarter than a lot of the 20-somethings that are usually in the house. On the other hand, a lot of them have quit!
Agree Joe, but I've been anti- Oma since that first season of The Apprentice. Just never liked her backstabbing at any cost approach. Just me though. :))
Hello Jackie and everyone as well as Mmmmooonnnntttyyyyy lol
Brandi knows she's going home. The outfit clearly gives that away.
Jjjjooonnnnn! Long time no see :)))
I know work has been fd lol
Jon, I missed an entire week due to the flu. Yuck!
I was down with that last month it's just bad this year.
Joe It's to bad they can't combine some of the attributes of this Big Brother with the regular big brother. It will be interesting to see how voters seeing the season back before they choose a winner.
I really has been this year, Jon. I flew to Florida for my nephew's wedding and I'm convinced that I caught the flu on the flight home. Nobody in my family or anyone I was around was or has been sick since then. I'm gonna be the girl with a face mask on any future flights, LOL
Hi Jon. Brandi is freaking out. She wanted them to make fun of Julie. I have been sick last week or so also. This has been a bad year with everyone getting sick.
We have one Abe Vigoda lady at work and she infected us all with her cough and she still coughing I'm like you cough again I'm going to jail lol
Lol no one messes with the Chenbot
I'm still high from TAR!!! So happy Jody won! Especially glad they are still together. I didn't realize until after the finale how close to BB they had filmed the Race. Must have been rough: they were together for 3 weeks or so, separated for like a month or more while he was on the jury, then they have to run that crazy Race. The fact that they managed to somehow to stay together says a lot - to me, anyway. That's a lot of turmoil for a very green relationship.
Has anyone seen James apply the guy liner in the house or is it permanent
I'm happy for JODY too. I actually fell asleep Wednesday night before the show finished and was thrilled when I saw that they had won it. I had it taped on the DVR and it was fun watching the finish. Great finish to a great TAR season. I honestly liked all of the final four but have to agree with others that I wasn't rooting for Team Yale. I liked the other three teams better.
Hi Jackie and everyone. I'm not home so am peeking in. :::waves:::
It's not even Team Yale, it was just Evan. She was kind of a bully with poor Henry.
I'm surprised it hasn't dawned on Ross that she was tanking. After all, he didn't even want to play in the Veto for the same reason.
I saw all the Tar and thought I posted on wrong blog! LOL
These are crazy face morphs. I can't even figure them out.
Lol I do like Ari
LOL, Penny. Sorry about posting on TAR. I was here early on Wednesday and then just faded watching it in the bedroom and fell asleep right after they did the fortune cookie challenge. I didn't know until the next day who won. :)))
Hello, all!
It instantly hit her...after 7 minutes
Lol
I kind of wish her and mark got more time to actually see how horrible they would have done
He really should put Ross up. He can't put James or Omarosa up, or they could go home. That leaves Ross or Marissa.
Hi Penny! I was glad Jody won last night as well. Ari did well on the comp.
I already know all of this stuff. I'm looking forward to the eviction and then the REAL live stuff going on.
I've only watched the feeds a few times with this one. Just never had the inkling to check in on them. Not like a regular season of BB.
That's ok, Monty. I don't mind talking and reading about TAR. I liked Henry, but not Evan. Now anti-Jody people say it isn't cair because Jessica did nothing. She did some of the hard tasks.
Howdy everyone!! Been out doing some burgers on the grill - help yourselves!!
About the TAR finale last night - people I know over in Alameda (where the Hornet is berthed) said they filmed all of that in October!!
SueGee
hi Kristin as well. Hopefully someone before double eviction doesn't just decide to quit.
Penny, she had to the do the challenge because Cody had already done six (the limit as I understand it) and she rocked it. They deserved the win. I almost cried watching how excited she was when she hugged the guy and then realized she had to still run to finish it. When she looked back to see if any of the others were behind them and then you could hear her crying, that said a lot. No problems with them winning even though I didn't like them on BB.
Hi SueGee. That is good information to find out it was filmed in October.Marissa is a safe way to get Brandi out.
Is it a 2 hour show? Still not home yet.
I was thrilled Jodi won TAR. I felt so sorry for Team Extreme. They do get some money, but it's not what they wanted. Jessica was just better that night. I did not think they would win. I wasso happy.
Yes, Penny. Two hours tonight.
Yes, it's two hour tonight live. One hour tomorrow -- clips? I don't know, but it's not live. Two hours Sunday live finale.
Glenn, I think all the quitters are gone, LOL
I just hope that someone decides to say they are ready to go home and see their family. It is the first season I remember that we had 2 people quit . I hope we get Zingbot soon.
I think we got to see the real Cody on AR, and I actually liked him. I too loved the end when Jess realised that they had won.
I agree Monty. It is time for Brandi to go.
Yeah, Monty. She did do some hard tasks. People who didn't like them think they didn't deserve it be ause they think she was a floater.
They all deserved it. They all got there the same way.
I thought about Raven and Mark and remembered how Raven had said she and Mark would be on AR. Wonder how watching Jody win it was like for them.
Thanks, Jackie.
She was actually pretty funny
LOL, I'd love to see Brandi's goodbye to James too :)))
Julie with the dig about someone dared to say something bad about her. That would have been great Zingbot material.
Ugh, Kristen.... LOL I'm having Raven flashbacks now :)))
The complaining about Jess and Jody is a little silly. There were 9 tasks: he did 6, she did 3. But, if she had done one more, it would have been 5-4 like the other groups. So, it's one lousy comp.
Sorry, Monty:)
I forgot about Raven. Does anyone know if she and Mark are still together? Or maybe she's been in the hospital since BB wrapped...
This reminds me of BB OTT
LOL Joe
The only problem with these shows is you don't always get to see the "after". I would have liked to see Jess meet Cody's daughter, for example.
Wait, it was Raven and Matt. What was the name of Mark's girl? [God, I'm horrible with names.]
Did he just throw that?
OMG...Ross must be mad
Given OMarosa is 10x smarter than James, I'm betting on her on the tiebreaker
Matt was so forgettable
Oooohhhhh. Snap here we go lol
Omarosa, LOL
This is classic
I wonder who she is going up put up
This could be a chaotic HOH now that Omerosa is HOH. The House might be sorry they didn't get her out when they could. I could see he going after Marissa or Ross.
Mark and Elana, Joe! Marlena are still together. My great-niece in Ft. Worth met them over Christmas at a restaurant there and got pics with them.
Elena...I found it.
As of December, Raven and Matt were supposedly still dating.
OMG - Mark and Elena supposedly moved in together!!! I would have sworn she didn't even really like him.
not who I wanted as HOH but she is now vulnerable for the next vote
Yes, Glenn. They'll all be sorry they didn't get rid of her when the had the chance to. LOL
Don't like her, but I love this!
Yes, Joe... they are the real thing too along with JODY
OH, SNAP!!!!
One of them will go home. I hope it's Marissa
I never really like Elena, but I really liked Mark. So, I'm glad they are happy.
she going for it lol
I wonder if it'll be Marissa and Ross
I'm not really cheering for anyone. But Marissa going home would be better for the show. Ross just works harder. Marissa staying would pretty much guarantee the Final 4 and no real surprises.
Monty and Joe I am glad to hear that the couples are still together. I also wasn't sure if Elena really liked him either.
I hope Ari survives all this
Me, too, Jon. I like her. She's really a smart woman.
Joe, you are so right. Ross would bring better tv. LOL
Joe, I have a funny thing about Elena. She really reminded me of a family member... not a sibling but a family member. So much alike in attitude, personality and actually looks. I saw the same personality in her. It was odd watching last summer. Having said that, I can see how they are still together because I know how strong my niece is and how great her relationship is with her S/O. I think they'll make it work.
Will they do another HOH tonight on the live feeds or will they wait until later?
YAY!!! Go Ross
If she doesn't put Ari up, both Marissa and Ross may end up staying.
Wow that was fast by Ross with the Veto. Will Ari or James get put on the block?
Jon, I think Ari is safe. I think Marissa is going home.
Damn it I like Ross and want hm to stay but she is gnna out up Ari
Joe, if Omarosa wants a woman to win, she may protect Marissa... but I don't think so
Unless she puts up mark or James is only wayI think she could stay
Glenn - I think they'll wait a bit, play tomorrow maybe with the feeds blocked. No scrolling marque on the feeds tonight about a comp.
She wants to break up Ross and Marissa.
Snaps lol
She wants Marissa to stay. See!!!
Sweet she did shake things up lol
She wanted ROSS to go.
What did James just say?
That strikes me as a risky move
Okay, my comment at 9:40 was wrong, lol. I think Omarosa wants a woman to win and she knows, or thinks, she can beat Marissa.
Thanks Jackie. With James nominated does the house save Marissa? This will force Ross to pick a side. Ari will vote to save Marissa and Mark will save James. Ross is in a no win situation.
Ari and Ross will keep Marissa!
Ari will vote James, Mark will vote Marissa, Ross is in a tough spot with his double alliance.
Monty, the problem is that if Marissa stays, Omarosa has made a move against Ross and Marissa is really his closest ally. If you can't take out your primary target, you have to at least weaken them. If Marissa stays, Omarosa is back to being on the bottom of the house
They want to split up Ross and Marissa, though. This is going to be a potluck.
I think O just backdoored James all by her lonesome. But who will Ross vote out
I know, Joe. This is crazy
I think it will be James going. Only vote to save will be from Mark
They want to split up Ross and Marissa.
I think you are right itchy.
They want to take Marissa because she's the goat
I hope they show her goodbye message lol
Marissa is safe. James is out and Omarossa will be in trouble.
Can't wait to watch RHAP now :)))
Blindside
I do think there is a HUGE target on Omarossa now. Numbers are against her...
Will they show Brandis tape goodbye message?
Penny - I like blondside better :o)
Moving forward should have been the drinking word
Thank you so much Jackie. I'll be back Sunday, but not tomorrow. Have a great weekend everyone.
Night everyone!! Thanks for everything Jackie!!
That's kind of gangsta lol
OMG, can we stop with the WH moments???!!!
I've enjoyed this winter version but the politics is ick.
Thanks Jackie and will see you all tomorrow nigh
Thanks Jackie see you guys later on have a great weekend!!!!!
Thanks for coming by! Remember to sign up for the Survivor Ghost Island blog pool on the blog pool post if you want in!
LOL, I had to look up who Raven and Matt even were since they were mentioned. That's how long my Big Brother knowledge lasts.
They won't do a Zingbot. They are "celebrities" after all. Can't insult them.
Thanks Jackie. =)
