Big Brother 17: PoV Show Blog Party - July 1

Big Brother 11 Blog Logo photo BB-09-smJackieMA28497852-0002.gif

I imagine, in addition to the Power of Veto comp, we're going to see the food comp. Gosh, that's not going to leave much time for all the drama that's been going down in the house! These hamsters came in swinging! Figuratively, that is.

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I will be updating this entry with the major events. Refresh the page to get the latest! As always, the real party is in the comments area. Come join in on the fun!

After a recap, Steve is lamenting his BoB loss. Johnny Mac is super-ecstatic about it. He's almost as pumped as he was in his Jeff interview. The main crew - James, Jason, Audrey, Da'Vonne - are working on gathering numbers for the Jace Backdoor plan. Now Meg is in. Clay is excited about working with James. The alliance is formed, although Da'Vonne is calling it temporary and shaky.

We got a blurred version of the Jace streaking. Trust me, you didn't miss much. I saw it on the live feeds unblurred. Nothing to see here, folks. Move along.

Austin, who says Jace is his boy, notices that Jace is getting on some people's nerves. You don't say!

Heh. Jace told James he shouldn't get blood on his hands. James's response? "I like blood. I use it like warpaint."

Jace and Austin approach Audrey. She hints that they need to get Jason out. Hmm.

Time to pick players for veto! James draws Becky. Jackie gets John. Steve picked Jason as Houseguest Choice. James chooses Austin to host the comp.

Da'Vonne walked around counting things and drew suspicion from Jeff, Clay and others. She picked up on the fact that Clay was hanging out with that crew. Now it's lead into a verbal kerfuffle between Da'Vonne and Clay. Da'Vonne breaks down a bit in front of Audrey. Audrey thinks that Da'Vonne is going to end up being a major liability to her (Audrey's) game. Meanwhile, after Audrey gets Clay to really apologize, Da'Vonne tells us that Audrey is a puppetmaster and she knows what she's doing.

Have Not time -- James has to name the first four Have Nots of the summer. He chooses Liz and Austin because they were saved, as well as Vanessa and Da'Vonne. It's a dentist office room, throwing Johnny Mac into seventh heaven.

PoV comp time -- Setting is Nosa Scotia. They have to dig for gold nuggets in giant noses with a letter which has a point value, then spell a word.

The words:
James - Lifeguards
Becky - closest
Jason - zones
Jackie - sludge? (I may have that wrong)
Steve - trombonists
John - boogers

Steve wins Power of Veto! His was worth 12 points. The others are all agog at his genius.

Audrey snags Shelli and Jeff into their alliance. That kind of irks a few that she's taken control. James, Jason and Jeff are a bit leery of Audrey's takeover.

Time for the veto meeting! (This should be priceless!) Jace thinks he's aligned with James. Ha.

Steve saves himself. James puts Jace on the block, said it's only his decision and he must look out for himself in the game. Austin is stunned and realizes people are lying to him. Jace is just sitting there in a daze and then tears up in the Diary Room. Too bad, so sad.

The BB Takeover will feature Kathy Griffin tomorrow night.

Hey Jackie!

Woohoo! Our first party in July... I brought hot dogs with all the trimmings and iced cold beer. Lots of variety - domestic and craft. Help yourselves.

Jackie S. said...

Craft brew, please. Surprise me.

lynn1 said...

Hi Jackie, Monty and everyone else who joins in

monty924 said...

How quickly things turn in the BB house. Da and Audrey are on opposite sides now, LOL

lynn1 said...

I have watermelon and fresh cherries

Anonymous said...

Hello BB People, I just feel I must say this that Jackie knew about the backdoor plan and didn't tell Jace and it's really shady!!!

Becky said...

Hey Jackie, Monty and everyone. I have a kicker headache, so will mostly lurk tonight.

Glenn said...

Will they show the twins switching places tonight?

Cheryl in NC said...

Hi Jackie and all!! Glad i get to join the party tonight!

lynn1 said...

Hi JonMD and Becky

monty924 said...

Sliding Jackie a Nut Brown Ale English Brown Ale from Nashville, TN. Hey Lynn!

monty924 said...

Hi Jon, Becky, Glen and Cheryl

Sharon S said...

Hi everyone! I'm looking forward to seeing Steve win his veto.

Anonymous said...

Word Lynn, Monty, Becky, Cheryl, Glenn and the rest of the castaways ha

lynn1 said...

Hi Cheryl and Sharon

Sharon S said...

I'm hoping for a twist this season -- early -- that looks something like this:

On vote night, before the vote but after the pleas, all contestants are ordered to the backyard into divided areas (so they can't see each other). Then they put headphones on, through which they can only hear Julie. Julie will tell them that they can vote to evice whoever they want except the head of household, veto winner, OR the two that had been on the block. THAT would stir up the game, and make me happy.

uncartie said...

Hi Everybody

monty924 said...

The beginning of the downfall of Jace! I thought it was cute when Ian and Zack did it, LOL

lynn1 said...

Half chuckles and crickets LOL

Joe in NY said...

Hi folks!

lynn1 said...

Hi Joe

uncartie said...

Hi lynn..monty

Anonymous said...

Do not any of these fools even attempt to think of an alliance name maybe before they come in to the house.

cloud town, that's like where my little flippin pony lives

monty924 said...

Hi Joe!

Joe in NY said...

So far, I have no favorites. Of course, I haven't been all-in on this season yet.

Becky said...

I would go bat crap crazy being in the same house as Jace!

lynn1 said...

Hey Jace how about "one week wonder"

uncartie said...

I think we'll see a lot of jace whining 2 night
T

monty924 said...

LOL @ Jon, like what's his name's Angels from a few seasons back. The one who hooked up with Porsche the first night and was the first one evicted? :)))

Anonymous said...

He is gonna join the first out the door league ha

Sharon S said...

Jace has a lot of growing up to do. Without a bunch of other bad acting frat boy types to encourage his poor behavior, he has a chance. Maybe he will learn from reading the internet on Friday?

Glenn said...

Hi! Everyone. Jace was acting crazy.

Anonymous said...

TECHNOTRONIC lol classic

Sharon S said...

Did anyone read James' blog? He didn't say a whole lot, but what he did say was grammatically correct (which I find very rare in BB history).

monty924 said...

I kike Johnny Mac... he's super low key

Cheryl in NC said...

Hi Joe

Glenn said...

Hi! Everyone. Jace was acting crazy.

monty924 said...

Jace is a such a baby

Anonymous said...

I know Monty he could be the wild card down the line.

Anonymous said...

Lol

monty924 said...

Da and Jason were still counting everything yesterday studying for the next HOH.

Anonymous said...

I love BB so much lol

Kathy said...

Hi Everyone, Happy to be back for new season of BB.

uncartie said...

I wish they would put time and date stamp in the corner like in sports broadcasts

monty924 said...

Clay is another in a long line of people who have never seen BB but thinks he's an expert at the game.

Anonymous said...

Ok, is it me, or she just could have said I was counting things, or looking for someone and this whole thing would have been nothing ha.

Cheryl in NC said...

i agree Jon...thats what i thought.

monty924 said...

Exactly, Jon!!

Cheryl in NC said...

i wanted to like day...but she s playing to hard to fast and Audrey should know loose lips sink ships..never good..haha

Anonymous said...

Man all these mofo's playin HARD this year out the gate.

Jackie S. said...

Sharon S - I was also very impressed by James's grammatical skills and writing ability on his HoH blog. I believe it's the first well-written one I've ever seen! I didn't really expect it from him.

monty924 said...

They both are, Cheryl. Da and Audrey both want to be the queen bee in the house.

Joe in NY said...

I guess when there's no TV, people create their own drama. LOL.

I don't know if it's the inherent paranoia of the environment, or if it's the age group. Somehow, everyone made a huge issue out of nothing.

I mean, she could have said "I'm just investigating the house, or counting things, and who would have cared?" And then either of the guys could have just said, "we just wondered if something was going on." Instead, they all tried to lie about nothing and then throw out their righteous indignation that the other one was lying to them. LOL.

Joe in NY said...

Anti-southern bigotry, Jackie. If he had a Connecticut accent, you probably wouldn't be surprised by his writing skills. jk

What does he do in real life?

Joe in NY said...

OK, what sophomore dreamed up a "digging for gold in the nose" competition?

monty924 said...

Jason cracks me up in the DR and on the feeds.

monty924 said...

LOL, Joe!

Anonymous said...

Did Johnny Mac just go in to Bobcat a bit ha

Sharon S said...

Joe -- not so! I teach in CT -- I'd be shocked if people his age here could write that well!

Anonymous said...

I think I would loose all brain function in the house and end up spelling CAT

monty924 said...

Go Steve!!

monty924 said...

Hahaha, Johnny had the best. :)))

Cheryl in NC said...

Ha Jon is funny..lol

lynn1 said...

John OMG Boogers????????????????????

Becky said...

I really like Steve. Boy, that little man is smart.

David said...

Hello everyone. =)

Problems with internet speed today so can't stream the show, will have to wait another 20 minutes to watch it. The price of living way out in the country. =)

I will just have to relax by the pool with a brew while waiting and read about it.

Becky said...

Jon, I would would be the same way. I would try to spell CAT and misspell it!

Sharon S said...

Steve is from the next town over from where I grew up. He's doing the Northern NY people proud!

monty924 said...

Hi David. Speaking of spelling... I had acolyte in the spelling bee (5th grade) and spelled ACOLITE. Even worse, I'm Catholic :(((

Sharon S said...

I was part of a quiz team in high school that only competed at the local (hour away) PBS station. I got stage fright so bad, I don't think I answered a single question. I'm pretty sure if you asked me what Mary's little lamb had done, I wouldn't have been able to tell you. THere's no way I would be able to participate in any competition with millions of people going to see it!

lynn1 said...

I really like Jason, Steve & James. They seem to be almost regular people compared to the showbiz wanna bees

Jackie S. said...

Joe - James is a retail clerk, grew up in a boys home and, if he has any education past high school level, it wasn't mentioned. Plus, a generational thing seems to demand numerous exclamation points, text shorthand and such. He had none of that in his HoH blog post.

Cheryl in NC said...

Hi David..glad you made it!

Anonymous said...

Was this the am ninja meeting?

uncartie said...

They must have installed a spell checker

monty924 said...

Shades of Devin... ewww

Cheryl in NC said...

Audrey the new Devon 2.0

monty924 said...

You got it James! That's exactly what happened this week.

uncartie said...

No toooooo pushy

David said...

A combination of Devin and Amanda, ewwwww.

Sharon S said...

weird secret book club - ha!

Anonymous said...

I think it would have been easier if she just told whoever was not in the group to just leave the room lol

Joe in NY said...

What is her problem? She is working it waaaaay too hard

Cheryl in NC said...

that girl is tripping

Anonymous said...

MYLANTA she is playin HARD lol

lynn1 said...

Audrey is working her way right out the door.

monty924 said...

She has been Joe and it all caught up with her yesterday.

Joe in NY said...

Sharon, I teach college in NY, and few of my students can write. The best papers I got last year were from my MALAYSIAN students!!! LOL.

But there is a North prejudice against Southern accents. I was mostly jk, but it does exist.

Cheryl in NC said...

Haha Jon

Anonymous said...

Here is where Steve stabbed Jace in the back, how dare he not stay on the block.

monty924 said...

Please don't say that ever again, James!

Joe in NY said...

Anyone who has ever watched ANY reality show that allows players to vote out other players (Survivor, BB, etc.) would know better than to play that aggressively so early. Very few people have ever gotten away with it. ED did. Russell Hantz almost did. But usually you are more likely to be the first person out. She clearly is not a fan...either that or she is a compulsive control freak.

Sharon S said...

Joe, I hear you! The clearest, most grammatically correct writing I've ever seen in any of my 9th graders was a student here for a year while his parents were on a sabbatical from Norway.

Cheryl in NC said...

James...way to take the heat...but i guess he wanted to make sure Audrey new he wasnt doing her bidding.

monty924 said...

Ugh, there it was again. Can BB officially ban the phrase AT THE END OF THE DAY????

lynn1 said...

Audrey has those Bette Davis eyes

Sharon S said...

I think nerves and excitement got to Audrey. She was having fun manipulating all the pieces in her little world -- like playing barbies!

Anonymous said...

It is what it is Monty lol

Becky said...

Thanks for hosting Jackie. Try and get some rest.

uncartie said...

James now officially Caleb 2.0

lynn1 said...

Thanks Jackie. Not sure if I will be able to join you tomorrow night or not.

monty924 said...

Sounds like a fun party show tomorrow night. Thanks, Jackie!

uncartie said...

Good time 2night guys.

Sharon S said...

Thanks for hosting Jackie!

Cheryl in NC said...

I am starting to like James alot..willing to get blood on his hands and own it.

Anonymous said...

Thanks Jackie!!! Everyone have a good rest of the night!!! See you guys Thursday :)

Cheryl in NC said...

Jackie.... Thanks for letting us hang out with you! Goodnight all and see ya'll tomorrow night!

Jackie S. said...

Thanks for coming by!

David said...

Thanks Jackie. =)

Everyone have a good evening.

uncartie said...

Audrey is back at it with James once again dredging up who did what,who lied,who said what,yada,yada,yada. She's like the Everyready Bunny of gossip and denial. We're in for a long night -(

Nickelpeed said...

Listening tot he conversation about the Southern Accent and prejudice. When I was stationed in Germany, I decided to take an English class at an on-base college. Our teacher was an Australian.

She would pick on me about my NY accent; but she actually stated in front of the class that the accent that drove her the battiest was the American Southern accent. She actually said Americans were bad at grammar, but those from the South were the worst in her view. She'd say, aside from not being able to understand them, their grammar was horrific.

Here best were from the Scandanavian countries.

Thank you for blogging Jackie. When I got home, I came right here to read the blog. I really do appreciate it!!!
