Welp, we have two hours of games tonight, an hour and a half tomorrow night, then the last four episodes will be an hour each.
Tiffany, Derek and Jordan are the hosting elves.
While I won't be live blogging the show as I usually do, I will pop in now and then with a screen shot or comment.
But I do hear there's a party going on in the comments section! I hope to see you there!
I'm liking the introductions to each competitor. I like Britney so much! And Danielle!
Santa tells them Christmas is in danger of being cancelled. One player who falls short each day will be sent home. At the end the winner wins 100 grand.
They did better on decorating the house for the holidays than they did for the last several seasons.
Britney and Nicole mend fences. It's a Christmas miracle!
Who could be at the door? Jordan! She's an Elf Ambassador for Santa. Time for their first challenge. First challenge each day will be the Naughty or Nice challenge. They have to solve a riddle -- packages will open with clues to a DJ's favorite song, can only guess once. More on the Naughty or Nice power later.
The winner is Britney. (Up On the Housetop) She has earned the Nice Power, will have an advantage at the next challenge - the Jingle Bell Brawl. She can put someone on the Naughty List.
After talking to everyone, Britney puts the Naughty disadvantage on Cody.
Safety for the day, winner will have a crucial role in who goes home. That's the Jingle Bell Brawl. Letters to Santa have stopped being delivered. They must place their letters in the boxes of others. Then they deliver ones in their box. Britney starts with one less for Nice, Cody starts with an extra trip due to Naughty.
FRANKIE wins the Jingle Bell Brawl. It will be up to him and him alone to decide which two players go to the Santa Showdown. The loser of that goes home.
Frankie chooses to send Cameron and Xavier into Santa's Showdown.
In it, they each have to make a Yeti sweater, 57 sweater parts. It's a giant puzzle.

XAVIER wins Santa's Showdown! Cameron is eliminated and going ho-ho-home. He gets to choose one gift from under the tree. He gets a year's subscription to the Jelly Club.
Hello everyone - I brought Christmas candy (fudge, Buckeyes) and cookies
ReplyDeleteHey, there.
ReplyDelete\
Hey Jackie thanks for the post and I hope you get to feeling better soon. I am exhausted all the time since I last had COVID.It really sucks.
ReplyDeleteWell let's see how this goes!
Hey monty
ReplyDeleteJackie, hope you relax and continue to get better.
ReplyDeleteHey Cheryl
ReplyDeleteI'll have a buckeye Monty!! I've had them before. YUM
ReplyDeleteI won't stick around to chat about what I can't see - but will check back when it is actually on here and see if anyone from the left coast is hanging around.
I think Cody or X have the best shot of winning. I DON'T want Cody to win.
ReplyDeleteHi to Monty, Cheryl and Jackie
ReplyDeleteHey SueGee... I make buckeyes from my Mom's recipe. They're the best :))
ReplyDeleteDanielle has always been a favorite of mine.
ReplyDeleteHey Squeegee
ReplyDeleteI think Frankie is trying to look like Adam Lambert
ReplyDeleteI so dislike Frankie...too full of himself
ReplyDeleteUghhh Nicole and frankie
ReplyDeleteAww, Nicole's little boy looks just like Victor minus the blond hair
ReplyDeleteMy cat is telling me it's time for HER dinner. Will stop by again later!
ReplyDeleteLove Danielle too
ReplyDeleteGo away josh
ReplyDeleteOf the entire cast, Danielle and Brittany are my favorites. I don't know if they stand a chance in this but they are my favorites. 💕💕
ReplyDeleteSame Monty..would love one of them to win
ReplyDeleteNicole needs to rethink her eyewear... js
ReplyDeleteLol, you go Danielle!!!
ReplyDeleteMonty - Same favorites here. Other than them and far away from them, perhaps Cody and Xavier.
ReplyDeleteWish they would play a game already..lol
ReplyDeleteI love Jordan and. Jeff.My daughter went to school with her!!
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Brittany!
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying Brittany in the DR again, lol
ReplyDeleteIt does put her in a spot as she has to publicly put someone on the Naughty List.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Jackie... I think Xavier and Cody probably have the best chance of winning, but I don't want Cody to win. He's already so full of himself as it is. Can't stand him and haven't since S16. Never been a Cody fan - EVER!
ReplyDeleteShe might as well choose Cody and not make any other enemies
ReplyDeleteIt could be worse. They could have put Jesse and Paul on it.
ReplyDeleteWhere's Glenn? He wanted this!
ReplyDeleteI know, Jackie. I wonder where Glenn is too.
ReplyDeleteGood job, Brit :)))
ReplyDeleteHe might have forgot about it ..I almost did
ReplyDeleteJackie, Jessie and Paul would have been worse than coal in our stockings!
ReplyDeleteTrue
ReplyDeleteThis should have been an hour tonight. The hour-long shows will move by quicker.
ReplyDeleteHi Jackie and Monty and Cheryl and Sue Gee and anyone I missed. I forgot it started tonight, I started watching when Britney won power. Will Paramount plus show replays?
ReplyDeleteHey Glenn... glad you made it. Yes, Paramount + will have tonight's show up tomorrow On Demand.
ReplyDeleteThanks for doing this Jackie.
ReplyDeleteHi, Glenn. I'm sure Paramount+ will have it tomorrow
ReplyDeleteThey should have been targeting Cody
ReplyDeleteOuch, LOL!!
ReplyDeleteBet he sends Xavier and Cameron
ReplyDeleteNicole playing the Season 16 card after Frankie and Cody mentions it.
ReplyDeleteI'm kind of surprised (but not bothered by) that they are openly targeting Cameron so much. I would have thought the "newbie" would be more ignored.
ReplyDeleteDoes nobody remember Frankie’s season? Competition BEAST.
ReplyDeleteHi Brent I remember Frankie doing well in comps.
ReplyDeleteThe casting is a bit lopsided. The men are more competition beasty while the women are fewer and more social game. They should have Rachel instead of Nicole.
ReplyDeleteNicole hasn't changed her messy hair bun in ten years.
ReplyDeleteThey absolutely should have cast Rachel. Janelle was po'd and took to Twitter about it. I guess they talked to Rachel then ghosted her?!!
ReplyDeleteWow Willie Nelson's 90th Birthday Party Sunday!
ReplyDeleteFrankie tells Cody about Taylor saying his name to protect Xavier.
ReplyDeleteHi all!
ReplyDeleteI brought some peppermint schnapps
Well, that was an easy guess!
ReplyDeleteOh, tbc... I LOVE LOVE peppermint schnapps! If you want to kick it up a notch, mix in some Goldschlager and it's the bomb!! Only one shot needed, LOL
ReplyDeleteCameron and Xavier in the Showdown Should be a interesting matchup/
ReplyDeleteI haven't had peppermint Schnapps in years. Blast for the past!
ReplyDeleteHi TBC.
ReplyDeleteFrankie, Frankie, Frankie…
ReplyDeleteI liked the Kaitlin reference. I liked watching Two different Strategies.
ReplyDeleteNice
ReplyDeleteActually, it makes Xavier easier to throw up there the next time to beat the real target.
ReplyDeleteThat's the gift that keeps on giving all year long :)))
ReplyDeleteXavier beats Cameron and Cameron wins Jelly.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jackie. This was an okay/fun show. Will see you all tomorrow night!
ReplyDeleteSee you tomorrow night!
ReplyDeleteNice to see you all! Take care!
ReplyDeleteGoodnight all
ReplyDelete.I kinda fell asleep on the couch..lol..luckily the rest of the shows are ahorter
So tomorrow at 9pm is the next episode.
ReplyDeleteThanks for starting the blog Jackie!
ReplyDeleteAs usual, I'm late to the party... just now tuning in to the show.
Nice to see Britney again. :)
When I lived in California, there was a restaurant in Running Springs (mountains) that had their own 'special' drink: your preferred 'hard alcohol'... topped with a splash of Peppermint Schnapps.
ReplyDeleteMine was vodka rocks with a Peppermint Schnapps splash.
Let me tell you, mixing alcohols like that (more than once) will hit most people "hard and fast." The next morning isn't... pleasant. lol
I know what you mean, Sharon. That's what mixing Peppermint Schnapps and Goldschlager (cinnamon schnapps) will do to you. It's pretty with the gold flakes and an odd mix that sounds like it would be awful, but it's just a shot, that isn't bad so you do a couple, or more, and regret it the next morning, lol. The bartenders here call it a "lightening" shot and that's what it does to you, LOL! Haven't done any of them for years but remember them well :)
ReplyDeleteSorry I missed the party. Gretchen is very sick, so I've been preoccupied.
ReplyDeleteI am a fan of Cameron, but I'm glad he is out because I think he's too good for this show. This is the silliest show I've seen in a long time, and I can't believe it is sanctioned by Big Brother. It's a new low for them, IMHO. I know others like this kind of show, to each his own. I can't see myself watching it again.
