Big Brother 20: Live Feeds and Looking Back - Sept. 24

Sorry, Bayleigh

Here's the latest from inside the Big Brother House of Napping:
  • I have practically nothing to report.
  • Lots of napping.
  • Lots of small talk.
  • Lots of talk of being bored.
  • They were given tie-dye kits yesterday.
  • Kaycee and Tyler haven't told JC that neither will take him to the final two as they had a final two deal since the beginning and both a part of Level 6.
  • JC still hasn't put together there was a Level 6 alliance even though he helped them all season.
  • They do plan on telling him. I personally think the sooner the better -- give him a chance to cool off before exposing things on the live show.
  • On a bizarre note -- the Have Not room is still open. Weird.
  • And, that's pretty much that.
So, now what? Even though the season has yet to name a winner, I'd like to do my own little take on BB20:
  • For me, someone who has seen both the aired shows and live feeds since BB1, this season was the best in YEARS.
  • I wasn't too thrilled when the cast was revealed.
  • Yet, every hamster played a part in making this such a great season.
  • Well, maybe not Steve so much. We never really get to know that first one out the door. 
  • This cast, despite the amount of recruits, was here to play the game -- even though some (Sam, Fessy) had no clue how to play the game.
  • But ... they all played vital roles in the success of the season.
  • This cast actually kept the house much cleaner than past seasons. Sam would clean so she had something to do. Scottie was an outright cleaning mania man. Angela, Tyler, Kaycee, Brett all spent a lot of time washing dishes and general clean-up. Most washed their own dishes after eating.
  • Fessy wasn't into cleaning so much.
  • He obviously was too busy strategizing!
  • Some show fans didn't care for Swaggy -- yet he was the impetus to how the whole show played out.
  • His alliance was blindsided and determined to grow stronger.
  • Sure, they often won power.
  • And got blindsided again and again.
  • The Level 6 group was more successful mainly because they kept things secret. They didn't hang out in public as a group. 
  • For the longest time Brett was pretty amazing as a double agent for Level 6.
  • But, once it's known that a Level 6 member is planning on turning within the group while there are still other targets -- ZAP. Gonzo.
  • They planned well and planned ahead.
  • They also rolled with the punches quite well.
  • The final three are all people deserving to be there.
  • Sure, JC has been problematic. BUT ... he's definitely been playing the game. Despite his lack of comp wins, he's been working it.
  • We can't say that every season.
  • It doesn't hurt that Tyler is a cutie-patootie.
  • Heehee
  • At this time (judging from the live feeds), it should be Kaycee and Tyler in the final two.
  • I'd personally prefer a Tyler win. I feel he's done more strategy and leadership of decisions for Level 6 while Kaycee has been more of a follower.
  • However, it will be up to the jury to decide the winner. Since Kaycee has stepped up with her comp wins and she's liked by all (since she personally never nominated anyone for eviction and she's got a good personality, too), the jury just might pick her for the win.
  • Either way, I'm okay with it.
  • I'm certainly not going to complain about such an entertaining season!
  • What are your thoughts?

Hoping for a Tyler win, especially since that's my pool pick!

Michelle Carpintero said...

I would not tell JC. Just keep that little secret until after the finale. What is the point of telling him before?

cynicalblonde said...

My motto has been "Anyone but JC" for quite a while. Tyler would definitely be my pick, but Kaycee has had a great social game. Either one is good.

Sharon N said...

Thank you Jackie... always appreciate your daily and end of season breakdown.

Agreed. This has been the best BB in years. Feedsters/fans had to dig to find controversy and what there was died out quickly. With few exceptions, most everyone got along pretty well. Only 2 pots-n-pans episodes, and both were short. The last time was a couple of nights ago and it was done in fun (Kaycee to JC).

I don't remember ever seeing a BB house this clean, which is why we didn't hear them complaining about ant problems. Nobody left bottles, dishes and food sitting all over the counter an cleaned up after themselves (except Fessy). It showed because, in the past, when visitors arrived, they would immediately remark on how "ripe" the house smelled. Not this year!

With that said, if FOUTTE had remained in power, this season (and attitudes) might have been very different and we would be discussing a very different result.

RE: Telling JC about L6 and Tyler/Kaycee's F2
I think they should tell him by Tuesday evening... give him a chance to mentally come to grips with reality. JC's reaction will still be irate, but learning about L6 during their speeches? Unnecessary, and I suspect he'd boil over...and possibly do a lot of damage to Tyler.


kbhone said...

Could not agree more. Thanks for another great year 😁

Petals said...

I agree, Jackie!

Beside everything you mentioned about this great cast, there is one more thing
I want to note: NO BULLYING. Even though there were two sides, they all
mingled together, ate meals and were sociable with one another. Even Brett &
Rockstar would chit-chat.

I feel that if certain people remained in the house, there may have been some
ugliness that we saw in recent seasons past.

Tyler is in a category with Dan, and Kaycee is like an un-bombshell Janelle.
I hope JC gets some sort of recognition, because he did have a good deal to
do with many evictions.

I'll miss this cast!

Jackie S. said...

Petals - I'm surprised you're not busting with the news that Jody are expecting a baby ...

Petals said...

ARE THEY? I haven't been online all day! YAY!!!!!!!! I'm so happy for them.

Anonymous said...

I agree Jackie. I am Team Tyler. and although I think Kaycee could beat him..maybe..maybe...I am still hoping for a tyler/Kaycee finale. I just don't want either to take JC.

I do believe J.C. played a good game, as his sneakiness and manipulation DID help Level 6. I am still hoping the other two win...though I am hoping for Tyler.

I would love to see who people predict each hamster would choose between Kaycee/Tyler

Anonymous said...

I also think it has been one of the best seasons ever. and one of the best, most loyal alliances I have witnessed.

I also wish they would show the houses reactions to watching the show once they get home! I would pay to watch THAT!! LOL

Glenn Allen said...

Jackie I agree about telling JC about Level 6 and the final 2 deal between Tyler and Kaycee called Coast to Coast. Tyler should probably tell Kaycee about the fake final 2 deal with JC. IF Tyler doesn't tell Kaycee first and JC mentions it Kaycee could feel betrayed. Tyler and Kaycee should explain everything to JC so he sees that he was not the mastermind and that Tyler is actually smart.

Glenn Allen said...

I wish they would have a reaction/reunion show for this years Big Brother. To show how the Jury reacts to being told all about Level 6 and about Tangela.

Glenn Allen said...

Happy Birthday Monty!

monty924 said...

Thanks, Glenn!
Congratulation to Jessica and Cody! Another BB-Baby!

Anonymous said...

I hope they don't tell JC at all. He is never going to shut up and is going to drive us all crazy.

Judi Sweeney said...

I’m with you Jackie... personally I would love to see Tyler win for the same reasons. I also could see the jury voting for Kaycee.

IF Tyler WINS the 3rd HOH comp, it might give him the edge. I truly feel he did a lot more strategizing and manipulating (without being mean or domineering) to get the right people out at the right time. Kaycee did great at competitions but she mostly followed Tyler’s thoughts.

I respect both of them for how they never treated anyone mean or nasty even if they were being yelled at. A fantastic season- interesting, funny and lots of strategizing for which I love! I hope BB and CBS is paying attention to how successful and popular this season has been! Same should be for future seasons.

Cheryl in NC said...

I agree Jackie,great season even though I wasn't a fan of level 6 mainly because I felt when they formed they thought they were the hot cool kids.With that being said,I think a Tyler/Kaysee final 2 would be fitting and I would be happy with either of them winning.
Re telling jc the secrets...i say don't tell him at all,but they decide to tell or even if they don't , Tyler needs to tell kaysee about his "fake final 2" with jc before jc spills those beans and she feels betrayed.
I am always bummed when my favorite summer addiction comes to an end!!

monty924 said...

Looking at it more, I think Tyler can beat Kaycee. He's done more to control the game with his HOH wins than she did with her veto wins. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

monty924 said...

Cheryl, do we know that he hasn't already told her? I think she knows.

Glenn Allen said...

Tyler tells the Cameras he is afraid he has lost the game and the girl. He loves Angela. He is afraid Angela will dump him. He said he is losing confidence. He said JC is telling him every 5 Minutes that Angela will dump him. He says he has to believe he can win the game and Angela. He hopes the lies and secrets he kept from Angela doesn't cost him Angela.

Glenn Allen said...

Tyler was wearing Angela's Hilton Head Hoodie. He said he is having trouble getting past the fact that he messed things up with Angela. He said he can't tell JC or Kaycee about Angela or it will mess up his game. He said he should be concentrating on his final 2 speech. He said he hopes he didn't throw away a half a million dollars for a girl.

Glenn Allen said...

Tyler said JC is probably right about Angela dumping him he said she is a beautiful model and a successful business and all he is a lifeguard. He said he really loves that girl but doesn't know if she was just playing a game with him.

Glenn Allen said...

He said he doesn't even know if the live feeds are still up but if so just wanted us to know how he feels. He said he bets the live feeders and people on twitter are hating on him and Angela right now but he doesn't care.

Glenn Allen said...

He said he found the girl he can see himself being with and then he had to compete against her. He said he was forced to keep promises he made before seeing how cool she was. He said he hopes the live feeds are off. He is just having to talk this out. He said just as much as he fell in Love with Angela he fell in love with this game many years ago. He said he would do or say anything to get to this game. He said he will be heart broken if he lost both. He said he will be crushed if he lost her. He says he has got to get it together and start prepping for his speech.

Glenn Allen said...

I have not seen Tyler like this in a long time. I remember a conversation he had with Angela a couple weeks ago when he said he was afraid he would be intimidated with her once they leave the house and he might be scared to talk to her. He said she is a beautiful model and successful businesswoman and what could he offer. She told him not to dare do that or even think that. He said he was scared to talk to her for the first couple months in the house. It looks like those fears has come back to him in less than a week because he had told her last Wednesday night not to hate him once she saw his goodbye message. He is a nervous wreck. I am hoping my poolpick can pull it together. He needs to concentrate on the Third part of the HOH competition and speech. He has to try to ignore JC getting into his head. He needs to remember she had confidence in him,

chrob61 said...

Thank you for the updates and summary Jackie-

I agree for the most part with your season analysis, but somehow I have a feeling that JC knows in the back of his mind that there's some kind of alliance going on. I don't think he'll be that blindsided when Tyler/Kaycee end up being final 2.

Yes, Brett did work the house yet made the fatal mistake of targeting his own alliance. At some point you have to, but his move came a little too soon.

Brett for AFP!! (although I think he's 3rd or 4th in the voting)

tbc said...

First of all, thank you Jackie for all you do and providing this wonderful blog for us! This is the best place!!

I’ve liked Tyler since the beginning. I like the way Kaycee laid low and starting winning when she needed to. Did she make big moves with the vetoes? Not really. She’s loyal, kind, calm. Tyler has been in control and one step ahead from what I can see. He’s likable, calm. I do think the jury will be bitter though and many have already made up their minds and the speeches will be “irrelevant” (as they like to say). For me, I’ve never been a JC fan and I had hoped he’d be voted out a while ago. He isn’t the puppet master that he thinks he is, but he has played the game. I don’t think Kaycee would choose JC for final 2, she’s just too loyal. Tyler wants to win. It appears he’ll take Kaycee, but he knows he’ll come in 2nd place to her, but not necessarily JC. This should be interesting.

As for Tyler and Angela, she is hurt by some of the secrets he revealed in his good-bye message. I hope she can put the game playing aside to see the big picture.

I can’t imagine being stuck in that house for the last week with the 3 of them. That could easily unravel anyone’s thoughts!!

Clover said...

First, I'm really glad Angela is out. I would not have liked her winning. Yes, she won comps, but she did nothing else on her own that was worthwhile. And despite how hard JC says he worked, all I saw him do was lie and use his language issues to his advantage when he didn't want to explain himself. Plus he was irritating as hell and way too obstinate/persistent for my taste. As for Tyler and KC, I'm on Team KC because of her loyalty, her fierce competitiveness and I think she has a heart. Tyler might be cute, but he's kind of an airhead about anything but the game of BB, which is ok I guess. Also, I remember him in the diary room saying something about (this is NOT verbatim) getting out and chasing tail would be easy now (after being on BB I guess)--didn't like that at all. All that said, either KC or Tyler would be ok with the win in my opinion even though I lean to KC.

Anonymous said...

It was actually Brett who made the comment about 'chasing tail'

Sharon N said...

I think Anon 12:34 is correct.
Other than the normal "F" bombs they all casually drop, Tyler has always been pretty careful what he says, so I can't imagine him saying something that crass. However, I CAN imagine it coming from crazy "don't give a rats behind" Brett... bless his heart. :)

Chacha said...

I really am happy with this season. Wasn't really thrilled with the cast as well when it was announced.
I have to say since its the last 24 hours of the feeds I would really like to see some JC fireworks.
If they don't tell JC today and Tyler is the one putting it off I would think that he is undecided on taking Kaycee to final two should he win.

I haven't watched afterdark since last Wednesday.

I got closer this year on my pool pick then I think I ever have.

reading this morning about Tylers talk with us was interesting. I wish he would verify to us
that he would take Kaycee to the final two.
I totally believe Kaycee will be taking him if she wins.
I still have an inner thought that Tyler will throw the final round.

David said...

Since the final round is did this person say this or that to this question, trying to throw the final round could backfire and he win it by mistake Chacha. lol

This should be interesting no matter how it turns out.

Glenn Allen said...

I am watching last nights BBAD now and he told Kaycee that JC thinks he is taking him to the final 2. Tyler told Kaycee that JC told him to tell him if he is taking Kaycee. They both agree they need to tell JC but know he might try pulling something. Kaycee said she knows the LGBT community will be upset for her choosing Tyler and JC will be upset him picking her. They both have to do what they have to do.

As far as Tyler letting the viewers know what he was doing he hinted in part of the talk to us. He said he hated having to do what he had to do to win the game. He said he had to keep the promises he made before realizing how cool Angela was. It sounds like he was referring to the deal with Kaycee.

Remember on Tyler's last night with Angela he said I wish I could go back to day 1. Angela said why and Tyler said you will see. Tyler can't have done this to Angela and then not pick Kaycee.

Sharon N said...

It figures that BB would want to give a little time for the F3 time to "work" on each other, but it's never made sense (to me) that they drag out the last few days so long. It's not like the HGs or fans ever get anything out of the last 3 days of complete boredom.

I know they have a schedule, but the last few comps could be adjusted between F4 to F2 rather easily. Wouldn't the cost factor of running BBAD every night, feeds 24/7, utilities & food for the HGs, along with paying all the Production crew be enough to move the Finale up a few days?

Petals said...

Regarding vulgarities and boys-being-boys talk, I think this season has been relatively CLEAN. There was none of that nastiness like last season. (except Rockstar - her bitter pottymouth was a bit too much at times).

Judi Sweeney said...

Thanks Glenn for filling us in on what Tyler has been telling us! I WISH he wouldn’t be alone with JC... JC works overtime getting into people’s heads! Tyler and Kaycee should be glued to each other to not give JC his opportunity to mess with their heads.

I agree with you Petals... cursing and being nasty has been very limited compared to last seasons. Rockstar is just that in her own head! It’s also interesting to see how Bayleigh has returned to her mean/bit..y self... bossy self. Watching her again reminded me (fast) why I so disliked her!

Thanks Jackie! Come on Wednesday!

Sharon N said...

Petals,
You speak the truth! This season hasn't been bad at all, and I'd guess the majority of us found most of the HGs easy to watch.

As far as vulgarities, the "F" bomb is such an accepted conjunction now that many hardly even notice. Only feeds-watchers would really know those words crop out because the casual show-watchers never hear any of them...any/all 'colorful' words are bleeped. Unlike in the past, I didn't notice or hear anyone saying anything worse.

monty924 said...

Kaitlyn is a special kind of loony. Check out the interview with the pre-jury HGs. One quote from Kaitlyn @@

"We all know what Tyler did to me on an emotional level. He didn't have to do that. He didn't have to pretend he was in love with me to get me to make moves."

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/big-brother-20-swaggy-c-kaitlyn-herman-rachel-swindler-winston-hines-interview-1146579

In other news... they just got their suitcases to pack!

Judi Sweeney said...

Oh my word... Kaitlyn is delusional!!! He didn’t pretend to love her!! This girl has a serious problem and it’s truly hard to believe she is ANYONE’S life coach... her customers need to run as fast as they can from her! Hope her boyfriend didn’t get further duped by her!

Judi Sweeney said...

Thanks Monty!!!

Sharon N said...

Monty,
Delusion is apparently alive-n-sick with Kaitlyn. Romance with her 'boyfriend' had to have blown up. @@ Tyler "pretended to be in love with her"? Her memory is convenient, especially knowing SHE went and slept with Brett shortly before eviction.
geez, what a tool.


tbc said...

Wow, Kaitlyn is definitely her own special brand of crazy...

Petals said...

DITTO to everyone re Krazy Kaitlyn's comments.

Petals said...

IN other news: I think it's high time I've let you all know that Brett & I are in a relationship. I can tell that his Roll Tide t-shirts are a secret message to me, conveying
our love.

Now the cat's outta the (nut) bag.


BWHAHAHAAAA

Sharon N said...

Way to go Petals... you made my night!
Congrats on your new and evolving Roll-Tiding relationship! :D)))

Glenn Allen said...

Rachael in that same interview did say that Angela did like Tyler from the beginning and talked about him. I wonder if it was in these talks where Rachael had kept talking to Angela about liking Brett. They must have confessed to each other.

Glenn Allen said...

It would be great if tomorrow night Julie Chen announced Tyler as the winner of Big Brother and then have the first thing be to run up to Angela to hug and kiss her and say I love you and to say he was sorry. Then have Julie say Tyler we need to discuss your win and then have Tyler say I can't discuss that until I know what Angela is thinking. Then have Angela say she forgives him and then they go up with Tyler to be interviewed. That would get JC so mad.

Glenn Allen said...

I meant Tyler and Angela and Kaycee be interviewed together.

Petals said...

wow Glenn. You are such a romantic. LOL

In other news: Brett will be sending me secret love signals throughout the
Jury interviewing/voting process. When he smiles & laugh, it means, "Petals, I love you"

Glenn Allen said...

Thanks Petals. I really am pulling for Tangela to make it and after seeing how torn up that Tyler was last night I thought that would be the perfect ending having him get the Money and the Girl and have Julie and JC and the rest of the cast blindsided.

Petals I like the secret messages you are getting from Brett.

Judi Sweeney said...

Oh Petals.... you made my night! I needed that!

And Glenn I was thinking the same thing as Petals.... how nice to see that romantic side of you!

Judi Sweeney said...

If I go back and watch the shows and see Brett (my pool boy) with his roll tide t-shirts I will be thinking of you Petals! You go girl... you did a great job hiding it so well all season! Impressive! Every time we see him smile a the camera Wednesday we know it’s to you! Awwwwwww

monty924 said...

Hehehe, Petals. You kill me!! :)))
I can't believe it's finale eve. This summer/season has seemed to fly by. Still pulling and rooting for a Tyler win but it's going to be a nail biter like last summer... only with a more likable F3/2.

monty924 said...

I'll probably be late for the Survivor Pool Party tomorrow night, but will be here with bells on for the BB Finale!!!

Sharon N said...

JC spent some time trying to get into Kaycee's head a while ago with varied repetitions of "Angela has had days to work the Jury FOR Tyler."
I doubt it worked, but ya never know.


Unknown said...

Any updates ??

Glenn Allen said...

Tyler and Kaycee should at the end of these memories should tell him about their final 2 deal and level 6. I hope it is done while we can see it on live feeds. I like this tour of the house. JC pointed out Angela's and Tylers bed.

Sharon N said...

I'm beginning to think they might not tell JC.
Fear of him going berzerker....

Glenn Allen said...

Kaycee and Tyler are discussing when to tell JC about their day one alliance. They are planning on waiting until closer to the show so he will not be super blindsided. Tyler said he will have been there 99 days so deserves to know. Kaycee and Tyler said they almost lost it when said the alliance wasn't named. Tyler and Kaycee agreed if they didn't take each other than Angela would be confused. They admitted they didn't tell Angela the name Coast to Coast.

monty924 said...

HAPPY FINALE DAY!!!

monty924 said...

They said late last night/this morning that they were going to tell him this afternoon. Both said he deserves to know and not be blindsided.

Bizaro22 said...

Unfortunately, it will be after Feeds are down. Bummer!

monty924 said...

Yes, Bizaro. :(((

Glenn Allen said...

I agree Bizaro and Monty. I have been wanting to see that talk.

Sharon N said...

Too bad we will be out of the visual loop for the disclosure, but probably a good idea...even if Kaycee/Tyler don't realize it at the moment. Nobody likes being made a fool, especially so publically...and I'm thinking that would go double for JC.

However, we could get a pretty good idea how "the talk" went from JC's actions/reactions during Jury deliberation. IF there's any forgiveness, that should also be obvious by watching their interactions during the After Party interviews.

Glenn Allen said...

I agree about that Sharon to a point. The thing is that JC did not mind trying to make Tyler look bad and questioning his sexuality on National TV. Tyler and Kaycee last night when talking to JC what happened the first week. JC said trying to get Steve out by flipping the vote. Tyler said what about Swaggy and Bayley. JC said yes. Tyler asked him are you sure nothing else happened week one. JC said nothing else happened. That moment and when JC said their group had no alliance name.

JC the other night basically said the only way that Angela would be with Tyler was if he got her wine. He said Angela feels lovely when drunk.

Tyler and Kaycee can do the talk on live feeds without name calling.

Bizaro22 said...

And just like that, they're gone! I'm going to miss this season. What BB should have done this year was have several two hour episodes. There was so much content that they could have delved into with more time. Some of the most exciting weeks were relegated to just snippets on the show. That's a shame because if the casuals realized how much went on this year I bet the show would be even more popular. Lastly, I really hope Tyler gets the win and the girl. But he better at least get one of the two....lol!
