As the show airs here, I'll be live-blogging and constantly updating this entry -- refresh the page to get the latest! As always, the real party is in the comments area. Come join in on the fun!
Who will make it back into the house? Cameron? Jillian? Cody? Or Dominique?
Three battles ahead of us. we're getting a brief recap of each of their exits.
Oh my ... they just said they have to win an "epic showdown" against someone in the house to return. We'll have to see how "epic" we think it is!
Julie is wearing pants, but not jeans tonight.
No guarantee anyone is returning to the house (according to Julie).
They are in Evictionville, must win three competitions. Top two advance, two go home. Next round, one goes home. Third comp, challenger from the house. The house will vote to send someone. If house challenger wins, all go home.
Cameron has been studying the table maze in front of him as Julie talked. The others are looking at Julie. Hmm.
Maze Race, rope and pulley system to move ball through the maze.
Cody wins the first spot to move on! Yay! Cameron is going to the next round! He deserves a shot in the game. Dominique and Jillian are going home.
Second Battle - Billboard Bashers - catapult balls at the ten panels of their billboards. First one with all ten bashed wins. Cody wins. Cameron will be going home. Sigh. He really deserved to have more than 12 hours in the house. I didn't care for him, but he got screwed.
Cody gets to pick one of the two challenges they just did, but with changes, to compete against the house challenger. He picks Maze Race (with a different maze). Had he taken the tougher Basher challenge, the billboard would have been rotating.
Julie gathers all the hamsters in the living room. She tells them it's the Battle Back Showdown and that the four haven't gone home. One has earned the opportunity. She tells them they'll find out in due time who it is.
Jessica tries to tell an upset Mark that he's fine if Cody comes back. Paul isn't happy. Alex isn't happy, either.
Julie calls them all together again. She tells them the twist -- they can stop the evicted houseguest from returning. Diary Room vote to elect House Challenger. She isn't telling them it will be up against Cody. After the vote, she'll tell them. They cannot vote for themselves.
Alex -- Paul
Elena - Paul
They're all voting Paul.
Veteran against veteran, they say.
Heading to the backyard. Cody appears in a huge puff of smoke.
Cody wins the Battle Back Showdown and he's back in the game.
Cody tells us he wants to take Paul out.
Julie tells them the HoH comp will start soon.

Hi everyone! I set-out all the leftovers from last night and tapped the Stella keg.
DIG IN
I need to rest -I've been awake all night with stuff.
Have FUN! ♥ I'll check in later.
Hi Jackie and all...
I've got beer. That's it but I hear that there are left overs from last night. Anyone want a beer? Name your poison.
~~~~SPLASH~~~~
hey friend. I'm laying low tonight. Tired. Hope Cody comes back.
Hi Monty, Petals.
Hey Petals!!
We're going to party like it's 1999!
Hi folks
No Cody!
Cody really should show the personality that he has outside of the house while he's IN THE HOUSE. He comes off great in interviews.
WOW, WOW, WOW... didn't expect that
Cody looks super-focussed...for better or worse
Hi Jackie and everyone! Interesting twist with a house guest competing!
Hi everybody!
Cody has on is game face (fingers crossed)
Takes 3 wins for battle back but only 1 house win to stop it
Why do I get the feeling this is fixed.
Wild guess.... (eyeroll) Cody vs Paul
This is Survivoresque
Isn't this an old Survivor challenge
lol Art
What the hell was Cameron doing with those pulleys
Hey Homie! I brought some NYFRB just for you, lol
I know Cameron got kind of screwed on Day 1, but he's the one I least want to go back in. I mean, he was never part of the game. Jillian would probably be my next choice to lose here. Either Dom or Cody going back in would be interesting.
WHOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Cody moving on
Cameron against Cody in the next round could be a washout if it's at all physical
~~~ SPLOOSH ~~~ Too much food last night!!
Better late than never...
YES, Cameron!~!!!
Uncartie...my thoughts too...amd Paul will make a safety deal and let Cody win
c'mon Cameron
WTG Cameron
Jesus hates you, Dom.
woo
Wow!!
Joe! tsktsk
Cameron is boring.
Cameron vs Cody in second part of competition!
Thanks Monty! Let the weekend begin!
Cody still got his game face on.
I'm out of the pool for good, LOL
Jesus didn't answer the phone tonight...
LOL, Petals. Well, she was invoking Jesus through the whole maze. I mean, shouldn't you save your appeals to Jesus for something more important and more noble than revenge on the other house guests? Or cold cash?
Hi everyone!! A special night....
CHEERS to the weekend!!! DRINK
Me too Monty, we're free agents now!
I know we are not Paul lovers here, but how epic would a Cody vs. Paul competition be for re-entry into the House?
Here's hoping the 2nd round is something more substantial than one of their ever-loving random games like miniature golf or plinko
If this wasn't fixed the next challenge would be mental. Let's see
I flipping forgot the Friday show lol Hellloooo Jackie, BB Peeps, and MMMMOONNNNTTYYYY lol
Cody still looks like someone licked all the red off his peppermint stick.
LOL Joe. xoxox
This is SOOOO Survivor
Survivor feel
haha Itchy!
Agree Joey! Something totally random. And you KNOW it will be Paul.
(watch Paul lose, thus ending his ...nothing, forget it *smirk*)
I wouldn't mind a Paul-Cody challenge... IF Cody wins and Paul is evicted!
Now THAT would be good!!
I'm rather surprised at how poorly Cody is doing here
Nerds can do physics... just sayin'
Nothing sketchy here....
I'm actually nervous!!! LOL
me too Joe
*HOLD ME*
hehe
I guess Marines do too, lol
Cody with the comeback
Dang
Shocking!!
It has to be rigged
I feel bad for him he got the shaft
Lol Homie^
whooooooooooooooooooo
That's 2 survivor challenges in a row. Next round: fire building?
Well the sex show will be back...poor Cameron
Predictable....
"rigged"? Why? That's a pretty even challenge and anyone could do it. It's not like Cameron was known to be good at any comps.
That's smart because he already knows the feel of how the ropes work and the one coming out to challenge him doesn't.
Cody now against a houseguest challenger!
Ditto, tbc
Wonder if the house knows it's Cody before they vote?
It was pretty decent try by Cameron
Fire building, LOL!! ^5 Joe
Hmm...who will it be? Sorry I'm such a cynic, lol.
Surely CBS (or whatever boss makes the decisions) can see that Cody is a contender. His popularity ratings have gone WAY up.
Please, producers - end Paul's 15th minute. This is the longest 15 minutes ever. @@
(I'm sure Paul is tired, too. I'll bet he is ready to go on home. Watch)
I thought Cameron had him, but Cody adjusted better. No rigging that.
What a joke. Sharon, You're probably right about Paul offering safety. Earlier today I heard a rumor that Cody wins and Jessica wins HOH.
I'm kind of surprised he picked the maze.
It'll be interesting to see who the House picks. I wonder if they'll know it's Cody. You have to be careful not to pick someone who would throw the comp.
I also wonder if they will know what the challenge is. I mean, if they throw out one of the bigger dudes for a maze, it's not necessarily an advantage.
I forgot - what/who determines which HG battles Cody?
I'm not sure I would pick Paul if I'm the house. It's not like he's exactly a challenge beast.
Monty - right! He knows the ropes...he has more control.
Monty... always the voice of reason. :)
These challenges are always geared towards the strongest evicitee winning. Sorry but that my opinion, the girls never had a chance.
I would like Cody back in if only to see if he learned anything from his eviction.
Send out Xmas!
Monty, the game was based on aiming. That automatically favored Cody. Fix was in
They knew. All the girls have makeup and Paul had his Vikings vest at-the-ready @@ *yawn*
But I dont wannnnnnaaaa houseguest to come back lol
oh shut up Mark, you whiney b****.
Paul feels it is not chill for someone to come back...errrr...you are the returnee yourself.
Shut up Paul!
Cody actually wants to work with Paul if he makes it back in
Was this comp last night?
True Petals. They knew.
If the fix was in, uncartie, the first comp would not have been a maze that didn't favor anyone.
Agreed
lol Joe - re Paul being a returnee. He had to know this was a probablility; it happens nearly every season.
they have to warn them to be ready, don't they? I mean, what if Julie comes on and someone's in the shower and someone's on the toilet and 3 people are sleeping...
I wonder if we'll ever get through a season of BB without grassy knolls?
uncartie, I don't believe in the 'fix', lol. Cody won it fair and square and now he has to be whoever he goes against.
I presume they ran these comps and the HOH last night??? Is that not true? Otherwise, why the blackout for 24 hours?
They need to have a challenge that girls are good at, like the wall thing. CBS knew who would bring in the ratings.
lol, Jackie. They should probably have the compliance officer stand next to Julie all season to verify it's fair. Of course, everyone will just assume that she's in on the fix also.
Joe - They blacked out so I wouldn't have to stay up late covering late comps three weeks in a row.
Doubt it Jackie. The original'Grassy Knolls' are still with us from the 60's!
Petals, of course he's going to say that because he's not hoping his right hand man is on the receiving end of coming back in. Last year, he needed Victor back in there. It's just human reaction.
Kristen, "girls" on Survivor are the ones that often (usually?) win that maze challenge.
I think they did and the HoH is the person to battle Cody
Joe - fix? what fix?
That would be fair, TBC
I don't know about conspiracies but surely production has some 'leeway'
I'd rather see Cody in there than Paul.
LOL. They don't know what the comp is and who the comp is against. Genius.
PICK XMAS!
thats pretty cool how they are doing it
Joe, Both comps relied on hand eye coordination. That would favor Cody.
LOL That would be epic Petals lol
@@
Ha! Jackie. Sadly, I doubt they care about you staying up.
Grassy knoll????????????????
I'm rather surprised they all want Paul to do it
OK - now what? Is it just me?
Hey Everyone! Wow... so much going down!
sure you are, Joe.
I really hope Cody wins now lol
Girls who aren't wearing make up win in Survivor. These girls couldn't do survivor, they're too high maintenance for survivor.
pshaw..grassy knolls.
Well, I was wrong...
Paul has them all in his back pocket
Did you see the smirking for Paul?
IN MY OPINION, and only MY OPINION - Paul has fulfilled his 16th minute with this little splif on BB19.
I bet he wants to leave, and Cody wins.
Awww poor Mark... not
No it isn't a fairy tale when you just met someone a month ago. Why is it year after year doe these girls fall for these guys and act like this???
*smh* I can't be quiet, so I am going to bed.
G'nite loves.
xoxox
Monty time for another 'root beer'
Not liking Alex anymore
Paul should have to leave if he loses.
I hope this battle back means Paul goes.,. A girl can dream
Grodner wrote it for you, Jess
This is SO predictable. Grassy knoll, right.
Kristen, the Survivor girls don't wear make up because they don't have it. Since central casting took over Survivor, they are no more outdoorsy than the BB girls. At least not generally.
At least watch!!
I enjoyed it so much more when there was no returnees from previous years and once you were voted out, you went home for good.
Battle.... I would have liked to have seen Cameron in the Battle Back! Ugh....
I guess we all knew or predicted this would be the match up.
Sliding a cold NYFRB to my Homie
None of these girls, except for maybe Alex and Christmas would apply for Survivor.
If code doesn't win this the night will be a waste
Your right Ed... kind of obvious
Kristen,It gets worse every year. Susan, they don't even hide it anymore. The hamsters were told to vote for Paul.
Never thought I'd be rooting for Paul, Cody is so arrogant I can't stand him.
Phony friendship.,.
Gee, I wonder who will win...
I guess I got here just at the right time LOL Will actually watch later when it is on here
SueGee on the LeftCoast
GRASSY KNOLLL!!!!! lol
Cody's back
Well that figures.
Yes Cody!!
I'm done.
Big bad Paul lost ha ha....Chuggin' my root beer!
lol
��
Cody is back and wants to go after Paul!
Sure, it's not like half of the girls on Survivor aren't model-wannabees also
BB was 'down' a player after Megan left. To keep the show on eviction schedule, IMO, they needed one of the evicted to return.
I'm out.
I wouldn't bet on Cody going after Paul. He said on eviction that he was willing to work with Paul. I'd be a little more worried if I were Josh or Mark
So fixed that they use the same comp Cody is familiar with. Unbelievable
Glenn, Cody already said in interviews that he wants to work with Paul and go after the people on his team/alliance that went against him. Mark is his number one enemy, but Jessica will buffer that.
Sharon, that grassy knoll theory doesn't quite work. They were holding Cameron in seclusion from before Meghan left.
hmmmm....Cody saying he wants to take Paul out now.
In the eviction interview with Julie, didn't Cody say if he had it to do over, he'd like to work with Paul?
Hopefully Cody will play a different game! That was fun to watch. I like Jillian, but when I saw the first competition, I didn't think she'd be able to get back in.
The feeds won't be back until midnight here. I plan a brief live feeds update with the HoH news, but I have to work tomorrow. So, it will be very brief!
Thanks for stopping by!
I imagine all alliances are potentially in flux with Cody's return UNLESS they all decide to just go after him again because he's a returnee.
Thanks, Jackie. I'm off to watch the secret tapes of whatever to see if I can figure it out. LOL, just kidding folks.
New game now!! See you all on Sunday!!
CHEERS
Thanks Jackie.
everyone have a great weekend.
Dang it Joe, you wrecked my theory!! LOL
G'Nite
Thanks Jackie!
Thanks Monty for the NYFRB
& Thanks Cody for beating you know who!
Have a Great weekend everyone!
Grassy knoll does work. They bring back the Hg guaranteed to create the most drama. Hence Cody
I'm sure they have a fall back plan for a self-eviction. Either eliminate a double elimination or, frankly, they could have just counted her eviction as that week's eviction since she was on the block anyway.
Thanks for hosting the extra party Jackie! :)
Thanks Jackie, everyone have a great weekend!!!
Grassy knoll works fine except for laws against it.
You and me Sue.... watching it from the West Coast! LOL...
As usual, thank you for the best place to fans during Big Brother. Love this blog.

Thanks Jackie!!!
My power has been out since 7:30 am. I'm working, so nothing taped. Dang it!!!
Penny, hope you can catch it on Demand. They usually put it up the next day. I'm staying up for the feeds to come back to see who is HOH. It's like the game just restarted. :)))
Oh, and we're getting that storm now. Lots of lightening and thunder but so far so good.
My husband just called. Power is back on!!! Yayay
A lot happened tonight. Jessica is the new HOH....Josh and Ramses are on the block and Cody/Jessica are making nice with Paul. This will be an interesting week. Do you think the plan is to backdoor Paul?
I hope so.
Joe - As I've stated (quite often) before, I have an acquaintance who was the comp challenge director for many of the earlier seasons of the show. He told me the comps are all planned before casting is even done. As long as the audience watches, the producers don't really care who wins. But every season, there are those shouting conspiracy.
Personally Im glad Cody won, if not Cameron. I am thrilled Jessica not only has the Hex Halt but the HOH? Good. I like this last twist because it changes everything they thought was going down the merry path.
Paul needs to worry, all the others need to get in the game. Only Alex and Paul seem to be playing it.
