The show has started here on the East Coast. I'll be updating this entry as it airs -- please forgive typos and possible errors. Also, all folks are welcome in the comments area. Recap, recap ... and more recap.
Eek. The live audience frightened me. Julie has a beige dress on. I don't know It looks Star Trek-y to me. More recap material. Why is Jessie wearing a Notre Dame shirt? I'm sure he wouldn't make the grade there. Keesha is confident the house will follow her plan and Jessie is safe. Michelle cries to us. Aw, like family, aw-bawl. Angie remains cool talking to her. Aw, Michelle's two closest friends are on the block. Go cry some more.
Memphis is still going on about the womanizer. Recap of him going off at Jerry. Angie talks to Jerry -- tells him the people he's sucking up to may not have the power next week -- bigger fish to fry. Jerry tells her it's not his choice. Jerry tells her that Memphis, Jessie, and Michelle grew too cocky last week. He tells her we'll work it out. Memphis is suspicious.
Jessie is once again being nervous with Keesha in HOH. Memphis runs to tell them that Jerry told Angie there's a chance. Angie and Michelle talking about Jerry going where the power is at. Michelle ticked when Angie said Jerry said her name. Angie planned that!
Jerry goes to HOH group while Michelle runs to her boyz. She's going to do physical harm, so she must calm down. Jerry denies telling Angie she's still in the game.
Michelle, "You talking about me?" Scream! You were talking about me to Angie. "You're not worthy of my comments!" Her boyz come in and Jessie defends his dawg. Coming up, America's Player...
Will Jessie's ego be the straw which breaks the camel's back? The house is about to be shaken up -- EARTHQUAKE! I love that Libra has a mud mask on. Jerry thought a car or something hit the house. Memphis thinks Jerry's an idiot.
Jessie is waving bye to Libra from the lawn as she looks out the window. He gave kissy noises. Libra thinks he's trying to intimidate him. Jessie thinks she's the most "deviant" person in the house. Renny says Jessie is going down.
Jessie walked by Jerry and called him "Father Time." Keesha says she's close to switching it up -- her people will vote her way. She can't believe he's acting out. Ollie, April, and Libra are exercising as Libra clues them in on Jessie's latest immature antics. April thinks it's the perfect time to get rid of him. Will Keesha listen?
Libra is really anti-Jessie. "Some of the houseguests are definitely fed up with him." - Keesha about Jessie.
To the living room for the Julie talk --
Michelle - The banner - First thing came to mind? Excited. She's not saying what was on it.
Memphis -- Womanizer? Extreme reaction? Dedicated his life to treating women with respect. It hurts. Character attack.
Jerry -- Great bunch of kids? Still feel this way, tells us he apologized to Memphis. Yes, Memphis accepted it, but might not forget it. He doesn't recall his "words" with Michelle. He said four of them after him.
Renny -- Birthday, best thing in the house? Being with all the people she's become friends with, they made her feel special.
Tlak to Keesha in HOH -- Why is Angie more to blame for Steven? She wouldn't take the blame at all. Pressure to put Libra up how long? All the way to end. Renny or Libra loyalty? More Renny. Others underestimated her? They know they have to be a little more fearful. - not a ditzy blond.
Talk with nominees:
Angie -- Interesting 3 weeks, friends, enemies. Only one person will win, not an alliance, need to decide who is the biggest roadblock. Mistake you don't want to regret.
Jessie -- Came in with respect. Power, did what he thought would make people happy. (He's not making sense) I'm not going to sit down when I think I was disrespected.
Voting to begin -- votes are to evict:
Memphis votes for Angie
Michelle votes to evict Angie
Jerry votes Angie
Renny votes Angie
Libra votes Angie
April votes Angie
Ollie votes Angie
Dan votes She finally tells him she's not Mrs. Chen!-- Angie
Unanimous -- Angie is voted out, those fools.
Julie gives the HG the news. Angie looks like she knows she's going home. Julie said "Jessie ... you are safe." just to annoy him. His cheeks are all red. Everyone hugs her, but it's quiet. Until the audience cheers, that is. Inside, Michelle is crying. Jessie is looking stupid. Keesha doesn't look too happy. All seem to be almost moping.
Julie compliments Angie's speech. Does she buy the Steven eviction excuse from Keesha? Angie thinks it also had to do with girls competing. She's used to hanging with the guys and likes to be outside. She's crying a bit.
Goodbye messages -- Jessie - pushing 110% for you. (Not making sense again). Jerry -- Real neat young lady, cool cat. Memphis - Been fun, nice . Michelle - I'm going to get these people back, jealousy did it.
Brian's hat ... if it bothers them, I'll wear it more.
Next -- AP and "the battle for HOH begins." -- quick shot of the HG all lined up on a ledge over water. Yep, an endurance comp. Argh ... I have to write the TV Squad review on deadline. I'll cover it the best I can.
America's Player -- One week, $20,000. And, it's Dan. He's laughing as he reads it. Keep it a secret or lose it all. He's blown away, appreciative. Who am I to deny America? He accepts it.
HOH comp -- Living on the Edge. Last one standing on ledge is HOH. They do have a bar and a fake brick facade. The facade is moving, tilting sownward. Earthquake? Aftershocks. Shaking and dust. The ledge is just short of Jerry's foot length.
Dan's first assignment == who should he try to get nominated? If the person with the most votes is HOH, next highest gets it.
Well folks...here we go...
ReplyDeletePetal my blogmate...are you here?
could anyone see the banner???
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to be happy to see Angie go and Jessme gloat.
ReplyDeleteI read on justtvnuts that the banner said Happy Birthday Keesha...a heart...love Steven.
ReplyDeleteThe banner didn't come close because it wasn't meant for the HG's, at least. that's what I keep hearing.
ReplyDeleteboo hoo manchelle...
ReplyDeleteFake Manchelle tears?
ReplyDeleteMempho is an idiot

7/31/2008 8:05 PM
You could be right since nobody seems sure of what it said. It was Manchelle who made up what it said to tell the others.
is angie FINALLY campaigning??
ReplyDeletei read somewhere the banner was actually a happy birthday banner for someone not assoc. with bb
ReplyDeletebb editing to make us think jessme may be going home?
ReplyDeletemanchelle is going to do physical harm.......hahahaha
That's the busiest HOH room ever! I think I would lock the door and pretend I was asleep.
ReplyDeleteMemphis misquoted what Jerry said to Angie, right?
ooohhhh.....LOVE the jerry / manchelle fight!!
ReplyDeletehahahaha...he tells manchelle "lets get it on! "
Jerry's gonna have a stroke.
ReplyDeleteSharons - The banner was not for anyone in the house. It was wishing someone else a happy birthday.
ReplyDeleteWhat is Julie wearing? It's hard to see on the little screen on the pc.
ReplyDeleteI know I would. I wouldn't last long in Big brother. I would just have to say, "Leave me alone" to nearly everyone who wanted to kiss up to me.
ReplyDeleteThey are getting on my nerves!!!
BTW Jessie, Machelle, and Memphis WERE running around acting like they owned the place in my opinion.
Anyway...I'd be nice to see Jessie go....really nice....
zoetawny....HAHAHAHAHA i thought the same thing about that hoh room being busy. i think keesha liked it though....like it gave her a feeling of power. she seemed to like holding court

7/31/2008 8:13 PM
Thanks for the clarification.
Justtvnuts is WRONG. That was similar to the Messie/Memphis lie about it. It wasn't for the HG at all.
ReplyDeletethanks Jackie and e1 else for the info on the banner -- I've been having a hard time keeping up with BB this year - taking 6 credit grad course and working a full time thinking job on my "summer vacation" prob wasn't the smartest plan....

7/31/2008 8:14 PM
I think Keesha did like the power. I was rather surprised at that.
Jackie...
ReplyDeleteI thought it was hysterical that April thought that cbs staged it.
Memphis has a huge grudge against Jerry.
ReplyDeletejackie...i heard the same thing too about the banner
ReplyDeleteahhhh EARTHQUAKE!!!!
That brown thing Jerry carries around IS his eyeglass case. Just saw it as clear as a bell.
ReplyDelete"he's goin down" Go RENNY!!!
ReplyDeleteha! jerry as "father time" LOL
ok, my verification is fucfvtk...holy crow!
Editing is making it look like Jessme might be going. I doubt it and Keesha will live to regret it as her biggest mistake in the game.
ReplyDeleteThey sure want us to think that they're sending Jessie home!
ReplyDeleteand Jessie just HAD to take his shirt off.
ReplyDeleteWill Manchelle fess up to the banner? Guess not.
ReplyDeletethis beter not be bb making us think jessie may be going home instead of angie. if it is true, i wonder if keesha will be smart enough to pull a "deal" with angie if she "keeps her safe this week"
ReplyDeleteJulie's really asking pointed questions.

7/31/2008 8:22 PM
He must be having hot flashes. LOL
renny schmoozing with the birthday comments.....one smart chick
ReplyDeletei thought julies questions were good ones too
ReplyDeletejoy n said...
ReplyDeleteThey sure want us to think that they're sending Jessie home!
7/31/2008 8:21 PM
Yes, but you know how that goes. If Jessme is evicted you will hear me all the way to the east coast.
They are playing it like Jessie really is going home. How dear they get my hopes up like that. I'm pretty sure it's just to keep interest. ARG
ReplyDeleteWonder who the AP will be? I think Michelle would refuse it.
ReplyDeleteI was having trouble getting the EC feeds until I saw the spot on the sidebar for it...duh!!!
ReplyDeleteThey better announce AP soon. I have to leave in about 15 min. ;{
So do we think Keesha changed her mind and they are going to kick out Jessie? That would be hilarious!
cbs must know that the fans want Jessme out but will keep him for more drama.
ReplyDeletenana...
ReplyDeleteGlad you found it. The site is a bit different.
i wonder if they threw the AP in as an after thought cause these guys are so boring.
ReplyDeleteollie must be a wreck realizing mommy and daddy saw him doing the dirty deed....
keesha seems bent on keeping hewr word to someone who is not keeping their word to her. seems to me the minute one breaks their word, the deal is OFF. LEAVE the libra alliance!!!
Keesha says they know they have to be a little more fearful of her. Why? After she loses the HOH title, she's dogmeat.
ReplyDeleteGood speech, Angie!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteooohhhh......NICE speech angie!
ReplyDeleteHere goes that "respect" again. BLECH!
ReplyDeleteJessie is an IDIOT!!!! Just in case you didn't already know.
ReplyDeletezoetawny...we are on exact same wave length tonight....
ReplyDeletePOOP! Here goes Angie. :(
ReplyDeleteThese people are ALL stupid.
ReplyDeleteAngie's a goner. Even her alliance voted against her.
ReplyDeleteRENNY!!!!!!!!! NO WAY!!!!!
ReplyDeletethis group seems to scared to go against house vote.
ReplyDeleteThey're afraid to go against Keesha but WHY????
ReplyDeleteHow "stupid" can they be? ARGH!
ReplyDeleteJulie finally told Dan she's NOT Mrs. Chen. HAHAHAHAHAHA!
ReplyDeletejulie....was it really necessary to set the record straight in the middle of voting?? just seemed outa place.....
ReplyDeleteyea..i think they are all scared not to follow the crowd in their votes
Finally, Dan was put in his place. Mrs. Chen is Julie's mother. HeeHee!

7/31/2008 8:33 PM
LOL I noticed that, too. GMTA!
I do not understand the houseguests this season. NO ONE has a mind of their own. This is horrible. It's elimination by committee. Get a brain of your own.
ReplyDeleteHA, I love it. The Chenbot has the line of the night!
ReplyDeleteI am married but my mother is Mrs. Chen! LMAO
We really have "crowd mentality" in this house.
ReplyDeletei think hey feel like anyone who goes against majority rule will be the next voted out
ReplyDeleteUnanimous -- Angie is voted out, those fools.
ReplyDeleteThis is going to come back and bite Keesha on the behind -- and she deserves it!
The Can't Think Logically Gang is going to regret the day they followed Keesha's directive.
i agree with nancy in NJ - these people are too scared to think for themselves!!! it's ridiculous! they will be regretting it when Jessie is in the final 2. dumb dumb.

7/31/2008 8:37 PM
I KNOW!!!!!! I don't like that they're not thinking as individuals...heck...not even loyal to their own alliance.
oh boy.....here comes retaliation week
ReplyDeleteIdiots!! Are they all afraid to go against each other?
ReplyDeletei would not be surprised if jessie wins hoh... aargh!!!!
ReplyDeleteKeesha standing there looking a bit awkward.
ReplyDeleteI cannot for the life of me understand these hamsters...3 weeks of evictions and only the first week did one evictee get a sympathy vote? Where is it written that the HOH gets to rule everyones vote? If this continues there will be no reason to watch Thursdays.
ReplyDeleteLets face it folks, Jessie had to stay. He is too valuable on the show. Who would anyone make fun of if he left. Big Brother is pulling the strings . Its obvious now.
ReplyDeleteAgain... pure herdish behavior. UGH!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree....these people are just not thinking.
ReplyDeleteTotally no exciting...and BB has to EDIT to add some excitement....
so sad....
i think keesha was jealous of angie. bottom line. IMHO
ReplyDeleteAngie gave a great speach. If she'd quit smoking I think I'd be in love instead of just lust.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah Ollie, we do think your the dumbest group ever for not getting rid of Jessme
Now Keesha has "stupid" written all over her face. Would I love to get into her head.
ReplyDeletethats why this house is so boring.......all one big boring robot
ReplyDeleteI hope Rennie wins it....
ReplyDeleteMan, did they mess up with that eviction!!
ReplyDeletehmm, America's Player could be fun, someone to finally go against the rest of the house

7/31/2008 8:42 PM
ITA! Angie doesn't have to work at Hooters. LOL Angie actually has a real job.
I'm channeling my HOH energy to Memphis tonight.
ReplyDeletePlease tell me this season is not going to be as predictable as it's continued to be so far. Boring!
ReplyDeleteI really want Keesha to go now. She needs a reality check on what this show is really all about. And I'll bet if she does go, Libra will vote for her to go right along with the rest of them.
Dan???
ReplyDeleteAbby and Henry said...
ReplyDeletei would not be surprised if jessie wins hoh... aargh!!!!
7/31/2008 8:42 PM
NO!!!!!!!!!! I'll be in a bad mood all night. ;)
dan??? that surprises me
ReplyDeleteCOOL! I voted for Dan.
ReplyDeleteDan accepted AP!
ReplyDeleteWill he accept? YES!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteDan wins HOH...puts up Jessme and?
ReplyDeleteI can dream can't I?
ugh...endurance?? oh gosh bb....why don't you just HAND it to jessie?
ReplyDeleteugh...endurance?? oh gosh bb....why don't you just HAND it to jessie?
ReplyDeleteCOOL! Endurance is connected to the earthquake!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like they have a long way to fall.....eep...
ReplyDeleteJessie! Nom Jessie, Dan!
ReplyDeletenow there's a hard question....which houseguest do we want out?................DUH
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to run up those text fees now. ;)
ReplyDeleteGuess we need to wait to see who wins HOH. No since voting for Jessie to go up if he wins HOH.
ReplyDeleteYikes!!
Jabifla
Seems like a lot of endurance comps so early on.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Keesha is familiar with the term "Pyrrhic Victory".
ReplyDeleteIf not, she soon will be.
I don't believe that every one of them voted her out. Geesh! Oh we like sheep ....
(A Pyrrhic victory is a victory with devastating cost to the victor.)
you crack me up Nancy in NJ. I just told me husband that Jessie will obviously win. how annoying!
ReplyDeleteWill the BB god answer our prayers and not allow Jessme to win HOH?
ReplyDeletedoes dan get the money if he doesn't get his"jobs" done?
ReplyDeleteLaurie said...
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Keesha is familiar with the term "Pyrrhic Victory".
Good one! I doubt Keesha has an extensive vocabulary.
i wondered the same thing about the money.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I want to screw with Dan. Who should we vote to nominate?
ReplyDeleteJesse's feet are too big for what they have to stand on....hopefully that will work against him..
ReplyDeleteDan will throw HOH. I keep trying to get on line to vote for him to go after JessMe -- not that CBS will let JM be sent home.
ReplyDeleteShoot! I have to go prepare dinner and the east coast site can't broadcast any more live feeds due to legal issues.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to run up here to keep checking to see who wins HOH.
Thanks, Jackie!
abby and henry......welcome!!
ReplyDeleteCan we vote online too?
ReplyDeletei gotta run but did you see the way Jessie was standing on the ledge?? He looked like he was doing squats with a weight bar!! Maybe he's going to lift the wall!! LOL
ReplyDeleteOff to the movies--give you a report tomorrow.
Keesha's jealousy of Angie will come back to haunt her. If Jessie does win this HOH, I hope he sends dumbass Keesha home.
ReplyDeleteThe way Jesse is standing looks like his thighs would begin hurting faster than if he was standing straight. Just because the thighs are massive doesn't mean this kind of exercise would be easy for him.
ReplyDeleteA girl can dream, can't she?
sharon...re: jessies feet being too big for the platform.....maybe bb will let him stand on his head...that ought to leave him PLENTY of room
ReplyDeleteGreat "POINT", Nancy!
ReplyDeleteLet's stuff the ballot box for Jessme!!!
ReplyDeletePinhead - Point? Get it? Sorry.
ReplyDeletejoy and nancy.....toooo funny!
ReplyDeleteDumber than a pile of dirt - every single one of them!
ReplyDeleteChange the name to Big Brother, The Stepford Edition - when the show is over the big "expect the unexpected" will be a pile of pods in the cellar.
Unless the ptb have caught on to exactly how BORING we find this this bunch of garden gnomes, fixed it so Jess-don't-get-no-respect had to stay, and then grab us with the big "Who does America want to see evicted" hook?
Boring, dull and nothing even remotely close to a reality show - game show, fix and all, is more like it...
