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!
Recap ... Cody is out again!
Finally, the HoH comp has matches two by two figuring out "decrypted" clues
Raven vs. Mark
Paul vs. Alex
Christmas vs. Kevin
Josh vs. Matt
Mark is out. Alex is out. Kevin out. Matt out.
Second round -- Raven vs. Paul -- Raven out.
-- Christmas vs. Josh -- Josh out.
Final round is Christmas vs. Paul. Christmas wins thanks to Paul tossing it to her.
Mark is the target and he knows it. Alex thinks Kevin should the alternate. Now she thinks he's a cop because he said he met Derrick "back home." (It was actually at a BB fan thing.) She tells Jason that Kevin is shady and he needs to cut ties with him. Jason will go with Alex because she's his "ride or die."
Jason tells Kevin that he must have done something to Alex. Kevin denies it. Kevin asks Alex what's going on. Alex claimed it was all about him constantly asking about food.
Christmas asks Josh what's going on. Now, he was a partial witness to the Alex, Jason and Kevin kerfuffle. Josh tells Christmas that he thinks Jason and Alex are acting sketchy and they're good liars.
Jason's short HoH reign got him an HoH basket. He cries as he reads his letter. He gets the news that his wife is pregnant!
We get a bit on the Josh/Christmas bond. They do seem to truly like each other and care about one another.
Paul tells us he needs to attach himself with each power couple, the third to each pair. It's actually a good plan. It's a shame no one else is playing a thinking game in the house this season.
Christmas needs pawns to get Mark out. She's thinking of putting Jason and Matt up. If Mark wins the veto, it will be Jason. Kevin's name was tossed in there, but not the choice.
Oh, geez. It's a Josh and the stuffed owl Orwell bit. That happened weeks ago!
Whoa ... a big lighted tree in the living room! It's the Tree of Temptation. Five apples -- power or punishment. Once a houseguest chooses an apple, that's it. There are things like Eliminate Two Votes, Second Veto, Can't play in HoH, etc.
Mark, who really has nothing to lose at this point, claims an apple.
He has to open it in the living room in front of everybody. Save a Friend.
Christmas talks to her pawn possibilities to Matt and Raven. Matt volunteers. Christmas tells them if Mark wins, Kevin goes up. She then gives roughly the same speech to Alex and Jason. She tells them that Matt will go home if both stay on the block. Jason is up for it.
Mark talks to Josh and Christmas ... he knows he's the target. He points out the couples. She tells us that Mark made some sense in targeting the power couples. Hmm.
Nominations time. Mark has to reveal who he has chosen to save. He gives Paul safety for the week due to friendship in week one.
Christmas nominates Matt, then Jason. She tells Mark she hopes he understands.
ZingBot will be in the next episode.
Hey Jackie and everyone
ReplyDelete~*~*~*~ SPLASH ~*~*~*~
ReplyDeleteHello everyone.
Jody may be gone, but they sure continue to discuss them on at least an hourly basis. It's an obsession. LOL
Hi everyone... I have nothing but beer. CHEERS
ReplyDeleteditto, Monty. I lost a day this weekend, too tired to function.
ReplyDelete*cheers*🍺
Paul kills me that he thinks no one should dare go against him...geez
ReplyDeleteEclipse tomorrow! My office is in 99% path of totality, I can't wait! I hope all our patients cancel. (many already have)
ReplyDeleteI traveled 7 hours south to see the total, it will only be 70% at home. Also, can't wait :)
DeleteChicMc
Cool comp
ReplyDeletewhere are u at petals?
ReplyDeletelol Cheryl, IKR
ReplyDeleteMissouri. I live in Independence, work in Liberty (10 min from St. Joseph). The town is going bananas.
ReplyDeleteCheers, Petals. I'll be inside all day but may have a chance to look out around the time it's supposed to be over this area. ???
ReplyDeleteI'm in savannah and I'm heading to Charleston a 2 hour drive to see the eclipse
ReplyDeleteSo much for your big move Xmas..not
ReplyDeleteRavens voice grates on my nerves
ReplyDeleteWhat an obvious throw, lol. I think Christmas was trying to throw it too!
ReplyDeleteHi Jackie, Vincent, Monty, Jo, Petals, and Cheryl NC. Thank you, Jackie for hosting us. Really appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteShe won by default. Geesh. Are these people really serious????
Derrick's tweets about his visit were funny. He is not a fan of this group.
ReplyDeleteHi Penny
ReplyDeleteHi Petals, Cheryl, Monte, Jo, Nickelpeed, and all who follow!
ReplyDeleteOhio is only a partail eclipse. I'm mad because I ordered my solar eclipse glasses 15 days ago. I still haven't gotten them, even though they were suppose to be here Friday. Come to find out, the people I ordered from, didn't mail them out until a week after I ordered. That tells me they didn't have them and had to wait until they came in. Not a happy camper. Oh well, I know it's not safe, but I'll wear my sunglasses and let my camera take a picture. LOL
ReplyDeletePetals, your avi reminds me of the all the Gov. Christie memes where he shows up everywhere in his beach chair. There's one of him in the eclipse, LOL.
ReplyDeleteJackie, have you seen them?
Hi Sharon Hi nickel and monty Jackie and petals and all who follow
ReplyDeleteNJ is supposed to get only a very partial view of the eclipse. I won't see it anyway. I'll be locked in my office with lots of money that isn't mine and taking a conference call.
ReplyDeleteHey Sharon
ReplyDeleteOh ... and my office has no windows.
ReplyDeleteI want to see Jason read his letter for the first HOH
ReplyDeleteIdiots.
ReplyDeleteThe paranoia in there always cracks me up. Sorry that it's directed at Kevin, but still.
ReplyDeleteOmg ...still with the Cody talk...God forbid Kevin talked to someone...arggghh
ReplyDeleteThese people are so horrible. When they get someone in their sites, they are ruthless.
ReplyDeleteThese are truly wicked people.
ReplyDeletePoor Kevin.
ReplyDeleteEclipse is supposed to be here in Colorado about 11:57a.m.
ReplyDeleteFortunately, I will have already arrived for my noon massage.
Last time I saw an eclipse was (I think) in the 70's. They didn't have these special glasses back then. People were told to take a large square of cardboard and poke a pin-hole in it to view. Literally, they DID mean a pin-hole... no bigger... made with a pin.
With my eyesight not as good as it used to be, I have no desire to take chances with the rest of my vision.
Poor Kevin. I know he's a floater, but dang. Now it's "stop talking to Kevin"
ReplyDeleteThey are so paranoid, they are getting ridiculous. Horrible people.
So Alex is the food cop now?
ReplyDeleteAlex lies too well
ReplyDeleteSee, Josh believe's Cody's BIG lies on the way out the door. PARANOIA
ReplyDeleteSo glad Christmas won HOH? She didn't win, Paul gave it to her.
ReplyDeletePenny, he was tripping over himself to throw that to her, lol.
ReplyDeleteToday, they apparently decided Kevin doesn't really have 7 kids.
ReplyDeleteIt was his father that had 7 and Kevin is just making it "his" story. @@
Of course, Paul started this conjecture and it's running rampant.
Hello everyone. =)
ReplyDeleteI like watching the comps this year but because of the poor choice in hamsters there is just no suspense. No speculation needed on what is going to happen or how it will happen. That is part of the fun for me. This just watching them go through the motions for the inevitable conclusion is just not that much fun.
I remember thinking this way during Derrick's season towards the end but at least he was not a total jerk about getting the others out and had some opposition to overcome in the first half of the season.
Hi David
ReplyDeleteI know Sharon. But I couldn't say anything. *smh*
ReplyDeletehey Dave!
ReplyDeleteHere we go. I wanted to see him read his letter.
ReplyDeleteI hope this reveal is good. I want to see the letter read.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing Josh gets it. LOL.
ReplyDeleteThe last total eclipse was in 1979. I was in the Air Force stationed at Plattsburgh, NY. But I was at Public Affairs technical school at Fort Benjamin Harrison, IN. Everyone got together, punched holes in cardboard and had a party. LOL
Can't believe Raven came out in her towel.
That's sweet. His wife is pregnant.
ReplyDeleteNow they will attack Jason, claim that Olie doesn't really have calves.
ReplyDeleteTHAT was awesome! Congrats, Jason!
We will have about 98% totallity here.Lucky that a friend of mine gave me a pair of glasses today.Penny don't try to look with just sunglasses..not worth it.One thing I saw online was use your camera in selfie mode with your back to the sun to take a pic
ReplyDeleteHi David,
ReplyDeleteAt least Derrick's season had a couple of people we liked and/or found funny.
Will Paul try to deny that?
ReplyDeleteSeeing him cry in the DR with that big pink X on his head is so hilarious
ReplyDeleteCHEERS to Jason and Holly
yes Sharon, Derrick & Cody were both very likable. And Zach! I liked Nicole and Loved Donny!
ReplyDeleteMonty - I know. I am surprised that BB didn't scream,"Jason, you are an EXTREME father"
ReplyDeleteNow he's bragging he threw the comp. So funny that he gave her all the time in the world to answer the question. She just stood there. Maybe she didn't want it either? LOL
ReplyDeleteBB probably wanted a toned-down season after all the flap with Aaryn's and then Amanda's.
ReplyDeleteEnter Derrick and Donny.
There were so many who were fun to watch. Donny was so hilarious. And, Zach was a crazy guy.
ReplyDeleteHow can these dummies not see what he's doing??????
ReplyDeleteAt least Christmas is thinking game now. But Paul is the only consistent one who has been playing the game. This has been a walk in the park for him, so far. I don't know how he does it with such dumb people. LOL
ReplyDeleteSee, I wouldn't be too surprised if at some point, Christmas and Alex start comparing stories and if Kevin gives it up that Paul knew all along that he had the 25K and that he told Kevin to cast the hinky vote the first week, Mr. Paul could be in a world of hurt. jmo
ReplyDeleteDerrick was likable, Cody not so much ... in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteThey were nothing alike.
Wait, what? Cody was NOT likable. I couldn't stand him from the first week on and his flirting with Christine made me GAG the entire summer.
ReplyDeleteOh yea, I forgot about all the others in there with Derrick that were likable and we could cheer for. This group has no redeeming qualities that I can find in any of them. I think if Paul was not in there it would have been a totally different atmosphere and not total hate towards the person you are evicting.
ReplyDeleteEveryone just goes with the hate the person we are targeting because they don't want to be on the receiving end of Paul's wrath.
Agree, Jackie. No way was Cody likable to me.
ReplyDeleteLOL. Josh is loosing it. Hahahahahahaha
ReplyDeleteNow they're setting up the Zings on Josh. part of his had to do with dancing to the cameras
ReplyDeleteDid anyone notice on POP, when they were showing BBAD, they scrolled at the bottom that Raven now has arthritis (or something like that)? Even they're getting in to this 'What ailment does Raven have now?' LOL
ReplyDeleteCody was ok once he left the house.
ReplyDeleteAs a HG, his bro Paulie was much worse. Hands-down disgusting!
Did we "watch" Adam & Eve? NO...it wasn't a movie. @@
ReplyDeleteand in the most ridiculous move this season ...
ReplyDeleteOh, so they don't know which one they'll get??
ReplyDeletec'mon. Let me have it.
ReplyDeleteThis totally backfired on him.
ReplyDeleteYes, Penny. That was hilarious last night. Raven developed arthitis :)))
ReplyDeleteNo Zingbot tonight?
ReplyDeleteand osteoporosis. Oh, and she needs surgery on her knee.
ReplyDeleteSurgery on her knee
Surgery on her knee
That was Author-itis she got. lol
ReplyDeleteMonty, according to Raven, it's ARTHURITIS. LMAO
ReplyDeleteurghh...yeah. Of course. Arthuritis.
ReplyDeleteSharon, it was so funny when Matt corrected her on the arthur-itis, LOL. Petals, Zingbot will be Wednesday with the veto comp. Can't wait. :)))
ReplyDeleteMust have made it difficult to practice gymnastics for the Olympics. @@
ReplyDeletethanks Monty
ReplyDeleteBackdooring Mark..NOT a big move
ReplyDeleteespecially living in the shadow of her mother's record-holding track time.
ReplyDeleteJason has no idea how close he came to going home. He needed that VETO!!
ReplyDeleteWell, they may just take Matt out now and that way there is only one known true duo... MAVEN
ReplyDeleteGnite guys.
ReplyDeleteHappy Eclipse to those who care to see it :) Personally, I am
excited!
LOL @ Petals. LOL.
ReplyDeleteDang; and I'm going to miss Zing bot. I work both Wed and TH. I'm DVRing it, but it won't be the same.
When does she get her walking boot?
ReplyDelete*I meant showmance. Everyone knows Alex and Jason are a duo
ReplyDeleteThanks Jackie =)
ReplyDeleteEveryone have a great week. And no, the eclipse does not mean the end of the world. lol
Supposedly this week, Penny
ReplyDeleteWhat is it with saving Paul? Even my husband says it's wasted. LOL
ReplyDeleteNone of them think THEY will be the one evicted.
ReplyDeleteWon't be nearly so fun or funny for each one as they reap the "benefits" of Paul's rumors.
Oh yes, Cody and Jessica....again. They were really selfish...
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Jackie. This is so greatly appreciated. Won't be here Wed or TH. I'm bummed. Have a great week everyone. Now on to GOT!!!
ReplyDeleteNite everyone. Happy ECLIPSE day, Petals. I probably won't get to see it.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jacke... everyone have a great week. See you in the comments.
Thanks for coming by!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jackie as always.Have a goodnight all.Another boring week in the BB house
ReplyDeleteTrying so hard to find someone to cheer on! I only like Mark and Kevin and I know they are big targets! Thanks Jackie!
ReplyDeleteOnly a partial eclipse here in California tomorrow morning....
Have fun ChicMc. I have friends who are traveling to Tennessee to see the total. How fun!!
ReplyDeleteThank you - was pretty awesome!
DeleteThe drive home was horrid though - we even spent a couple of hours at Shawnee National Forest hoping traffic would clear some.
No such luck. lol
Oh, well, traveled a lot of back roads (as did 1/3 of everyone else), drove in probably 45 of the 102 counties in Illinois, so there's that. lol
Still so worth it and I hope to do it again in 2024.
