Big Brother: BB24 Live Season Finale Show Blog Party

 

The Final Three bid us adieu on the live feeds.

Well, this is it. I believe we have a final three no one would have predicted -- Turner, Taylor and Monte. At least no one floated to the finish this season! All three have won at least a couple of big comps.

Tonight's taped segments should include the finish of the hot dog clutching Part One of the HOH comp, the second part of the three-part HOH comp and the Round Table. Although the winners of Part One and Part Two are known by feeds watchers, I ask people not to mention them in the comments until they air on the show.

Live on the show will be Part Three of the HOH comp which will be the winners of Part One and Part Two competing. The winner of that part then will decide the last eviction and we will be at the final two. Then there are the jury questions, and some choose me speeches. And THEN, we will have a winner of the $750,000. After the winner is crowned, we will have the Favorite Houseguest announcement.

The Esteemed Lifeguard SueGee has updated the blog pool and here are our final three:

Monte    - Sally, Willie J, Rodney
Taylor    - CherylNY, Donna in AL, Cherry Pie
Turner (Matt)- Bizaro22, Glenn Allen, Jasonuwp

Jury

Indy

Joseph

Jasmine

Kyle

Terrance

Michael

Alyssa

Brittany

I will be live-blogging, updating this post constantly as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest news. Asa always, the real party is in the comments area -- please feel free to join in on the fun! 

Hamster watchers ready? Got your snacks and adult beverages? Let's get this finale ON!

Julie is wearing a simple red dress tonight. Previously on and on. We know this stuff. Bring on the hot dogs! Weinerpalooza!

82 days ... a rather short season, but this past week lasted at least two weeks for me!

Ah, finally Day 79 and the hot dogs! Monte's arms actually fit around his hot dog to the slot on the far side. The other two have to use the hand grips. Turner tells us he gets dizzy easy. Taylor is down at 36 minutes. Monte out at 46.04 minutes. 

TURNER wins Part One of the final HOH comp! Julie promises us Dr. Will and the Roundtable.

Part Two - Zipline Veto Stage/HOH Stage. Fill in the comps in the proper order on both billboards. Festival Line Up. They can only take two "signs" across with the zipline each time. Taylor is up first. She got the order right the first time but this is a timed event, too.

Monte's turn. He gets them right the first try, too. Who was the fastest?

Taylor - 7.04, Monte - 6.41 

MONTE wins Part Two and will go up against Turner in Part Three.

Turner thinks it's a good thing. In week two, he and Monte made a final two pact. Turner tells him he will take him if he wins. Monte thinks the decision is tough and he would have a better shot at winning against Taylor.

The Round Table -- The jury thinks the smart move would be for Monte to join them, but it is indeed Brttany as they thought it would be. They talk about Turner playing a good game. Michael thinks that Monte is the one who got him out and Turner doesn't own up to things. He is quite anti-Turner. Alyssa and Terrance speak up for him. 

Joseph thinks Taylor plays with strategy as opposed to Turner. Jasmine says Taylor's big move was making through being on the block five times. Will wants to know what she did strategically. Kyle says relationships. Michael says she got others to put up her enemies.

Monte -- only on the block once as a pawn. Michael seems quite pro-Monte. Indy says he was one of her closest friends in the house. Brittany thinks he's getting sloppy socially. Terrance thinks he never really connected with him. 

Dr. Will is looking so grey. I feel so old.

Time for Part Three of the HOH Comp! Monte and Turner have a divider between them. Jury Fest. How well do you know the jurors. Jury fest video, three statements about the juror. Which statement is false. Eight videos.

1. Indy's Psychic Booth - Both right.

2. Jasmine's Muffin Truck - Both right.

3. Joseph is a security guard - Both right

4. Kyle's Dance Party - Both right.

5. Terrance's Tattoos - Both right.

6. Michael's Carnival Games - Monte right

7. Alyssa's Info Booth - Both wrong

8. Brittany's Meditation Station - Monte right

MONTE wins the Final HOH!

To the living room --

Turner - Final two, loyalty, love you, your decision

Taylor - World and moon if you take me to final two. Easy win for you to take me.

Monte chooses to evict ... TURNER. He goes out graciously. He tells Julie he is shocked, not mad. He would have taken Monte to the final two. He is very good with Julie.

Jury question time! Turner joins them. Michael and Terrance correctly guessed it would be him. Three total questions for each finalist.

Kyle - Monte - other than using Michael veto, what was your pivotal move to final two? He says evicting Turner.

Michael - Taylor - You were big target, did you adapt your game to get this far? Being who I am and played how I wanted to.

Joseph - Monte - Biggest blunder? Didn't stay true to himself in protecting Michael and Brittany.

Jasmine - Taylor - Move you orchestrated? Alliance with Michael/Brittany, joined Leftovers, protected girls the best she could.

Brittany - Monte - Where did you take a risk in the game? Make sure Nichole and Daniel didn't use veto and risked being evicted the next week.

Indy - Taylor - On the block weak game play? Resilient, blockbuster.

Turner - Monte - Biggest move was breaking our final two. Why should you get my vote? Heard you and Kyle had a final two after Dyre Fest.

The speeches --

Monte - Beautiful members of the jury. Played a strong competitive game, lists his wins and alliances. No false promises. Only touched the block twice, only one time on eviction night. Instrumental in getting two top competitors out -- Michael and Turner.

Taylor -  Likes Monte's speech. Won three comps, two of them HOHs. Sat on the block six times on eviction night. Continued to fight as a woman does. Called names, attempted all white alliance formed. I am not a shield, I am a thorn. Resiliency! Challenging you what kind of winner you want this year!

Time to vote:

Indy - One of my favorite people

Jasmine - Voting for person carrying on what I should have

Joseph - Love you both, voting for the sword of the season

Kyle - Both deserving, voting to rep the season.

Terrance - Love you both

Michael - Strongest player

Alyssa - Take our power back

Brittany - Love you both

Turner - Just made up my mind

Time for the early non-jury evictees to show up Joseph was asked about Dyre Fest, says he did everything he could to protect Taylor and Brittany. Onto profession lies. Michael is a criminal defense attorney. Joseph admits he's the second lawyer. Ameerah talks of the Monte/Taylor showmance. Taylor says he's a close friend. Monte agrees and pleads the fifth. Alyssa and Kyle ... he hopes it will work out. Pooch - you volunteered to go home, Pooch yourself new BB lingo. 

Who ate Jasmine's muffin? Turner 'fesses up and says he ate it in the Diary Room.

Time to reveal the votes:

Turner - Monte

Brittany - Taylor

Alyssa - Taylor

Michael - Taylor

Terrance - Taylor

Kyle - Taylor ...

TAYLOR WINS bb24! 

Joseph, Jasmine and Indy all voted for Taylor.

Top Three Favorite HG - Michael, Taylor and Kyle.

TAYLOR also wins that!

Congratulations blog pool winners! CherylNY, Donna in AL, Cherry Pie!

Big Brother: BB24 Special Friday Final Three Episode Blog Party - Sept. 23

 This should be a clips show with memories of hamsters past. I probably won't be as intensively live blogging it as I do with most episodes. I'm thinking they will probably also have the start of the (taped) first part of the final HOH. Although many know the winner of that from the live feeds (and even Part Two), please don't post spoilers in the comments area as this is a show post.

As always, the real party is indeed in the comments area. Please feel free to join the party!

Previously On segment starts with the final four and Taylor winning HOH, Monte winning veto. At least they don't have us previously on going to the beginning of the season.

Yes, it is clips ... looks like we will see some funny ones, as well as the start of Part One of the Final HOH.

Monte tells us he thinks that both Taylor and Turner will take him to the final two. The final three have their champagne and a feast. Three leftovers with surf and turf. 

Onto a Jasmine segment -- having people wait on her. And being fussy about it. She tells us her husband waits on her all the time. This reminds me how annoying she was. Although the Muffin Mystery was definitely a highlight of the season!

Into Alyssa not knowing capitols or geography on the whole. "What is New England? A state?" Unbelievable! 

Daniel now. Bad memories for sure!

Terrance time. I refuse to call him DJ Showtime. He's definitely a Terrance. He likes to stuff Daniel puts in his weird hair and is buddy-buddy with Daniel. Oh, geez.

Turner said Pooch started the rumor he doesn't shower. He claims he showers every other day. Taylor says it's too little. Michael talks about all his dirty clothes lying about.

Now they're talking Dyre Fest. Turner says it was horrible. PortaPotties, heat, bugs.

Indy segment now. She tells the others her background as an immigrant here, her hopes and dreams. Joseph recognizes the hardships she had to go through as he himself is the child of immigrants.

Shout-out time for the Diary Room now.

The Problem With Kyle week is remembered now. The segment shows Terrance in perhaps the best light he was in all season -- compassionate and understanding. We would expect it from Taylor and she was understanding as well.

Now they are talking about a fake hamster named Peter who is dying from various causes while in the house. This is funny.

Joseph's segment. I find this a bit bittersweet because he seemed so crushed by hearing Monte hooked up with Taylor. He's after bugs in the segment.

Into asking things of the Diary Room.

Finally to the start of Part One of the Final HOH Comp ... the rest of it, as well as Part Two (also taped) and Part Three (live) will be shown in the finale on Sunday.

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds, We have a final HOH Part Two Winner - Sept. 23

 

The feeds have returned!

The problem is ... they are not talking about it. Taylor and Turner went off to nap in their respective beds, not saying anything to each other. Monte went off to cook some eggs. When the three were together, they just talked about being tired, whether there was champagne left, something about getting blankets and Monte asked if anyone wanted eggs.

I believe Monty won against Taylor in Part Two. The only indication is that when he walked in a room alone he gave prayer hands, then a victory fist. Taylor, on the other hand, seems quite subdued. They just called her to the Diary Room.

I will update this post when I get confirmation that Monte won or something that refutes it.

UPDATE: Confirmed Monte win. Taylor finally talked to a camera, telling us she lost by about 20 seconds. I don't know what the comp was.

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds Report, Final HOH Part 1 Winner - Sept. 23

 

Uses others to do his dirty work

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Down to the Wire:

• This won't be a long report.
• After all, it hasn't been a long time since last night's eviction of Brittany.
• I do not miss her talking.
• They had the first part of the final HOH comp -- the feeds were blocked, of course.
• Turner won it.
• You heard me. Turner is the winner of Part One, something about spinning and hot dogs from what I gather.
• That would mean that Part Two has Monte going against Taylor.
• The winner of Part Two goes up against Turner in Sunday's live finale show.
• The winner of the third part of the HOH comp then chooses who will go with him or her to the final two and who is out in third place.
• They expect the second part to happen today.
• It could very well be going on right now as I write this up since we have had adoptable animals for quite a while.
• I will let you know when I know.
• Also expected, I'm thinking tonight, is the Roundtable.
• We will not see that.

Taylor was not expected to last this long!

Who woulda thunk it? Final Three?

Big Brother: BB24 Live Eviction Final Four to Final Three - Sept. 22

 

Tonight, Monte has all the power as Veto holder and sole vote. Taylor, as HOH, cannot vote. Turner and Brittany are on the block. One thing we do know about Monte is that he will do what he thinks is best for his own game. Will that be keeping Turner ... or Brittany? Who would bring him to the final two if he's third in the three-round final HOH comp? Production kept the veto meeting for tonight's show just to make us and them suffer!

Before we get into the show, Lifeguard SueGee has updated the blog pool: 

Brittany    - Judi Sweeney, MikesGirl, Tilde, YoDave
Monte    - Sally, Willie J, Rodney
Taylor    - CherylNY, Donna in AL, Cherry Pie
Turner (Matt)- Bizaro22, Glenn Allen, Jasonuwp

Also in blog pool stuff -- Since we are skipping the first boots, the Survivor and The Amazing Race blog pools are both still open for sign-up until Friday -- TOMORROW. But don't wait! The Survivor blog pool sign-up is this here link. The Amazing Race blog pool sign-up is this link.

I will be live blogging the show, updating this post with the major happenings as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments section. I hope to see you there!

I don't know ... Julie's dress has too many abrupt angles for me! We're into Previously On and we know all that!

But first ... is the honeymoon over for BB's latest power couple? Once again Monte reminds us that it's his decision who to take to the final three. Turner knows Monte is sleeping upstairs with Taylor. He thinks Monte will take him to the final three, but they would take each other (Monte/Taylor) to the final two.

Monte is a bit ticked about something Taylor said about him not seeing his goddaughter. Taylor wants Brittany to feel comfortable coming by the HOH room. They are buddy-buddy. Turner wants to know if he is still final two with Monte or not. Monte admits he was physically intimate with Taylor to him. Monte thinks that Taylor is on a power trip. That's good for Turner.

Monte talks to Taylor while she's in the bath. He tells her that she was condescending to him and then, by taking off the headphones he had on, was rude. She apologizes. He tells her that she was rude and cold. He says he has a low tolerance for disrespect.

So, they're over. Really? Hmm.

Jury house segment. Terrance arrives. He tells them it's a double and Michael arrives. They are shocked. Terrance gives Monte the credit for getting Michael out. Then Alyssa arrives. The jury seems most impressed with Monte. Alyssa told them Taylor was sleeping in Monte's HOH room. Joseph looked crushed at that news.

A taped segment has them gathering in the living room. They each get videos from loved ones. Taylor's mother and grandmother. Monte's father. Turner's mother and girlfriend Megan. Brittany's husband.

Brittany is trying her mojo on Monte. She tries to make him think that she would be better for his game than Turner. She thinks that she and Turner are about the same (good) at mental comps, but he is better physically than she is. Monte's DR bit makes it sound like he's seriously thinking of taking Brittany ... so he probably isn't!

To the living room for the veto meeting. 

Brittany - Love to shout-outs. Opportunity to make game changing move by evicting Turner. 

Turner - Shout-outs. I would be bamboozled if you think Brittany is better for your game.

Monte votes to evict ... Brittany.

She handles it well. She tells Julie she would have crushed it against Monte at the end. (Yeah, right.) Julie asks how she feels about Michael as she will be seeing him in jury. She says she would love to be friends but has a lot of questions for him.

Julie has the three gather together in the living room. Julie tells them the live season finale is Sunday, three days away.

The talk with the Cookout alliance from last year is next.

And, there they are. Julie mentions their loyalty to each other and ask them about the alliances they saw this year. They seem to want to see a Taylor/Turner final two.

The Favorite Houseguest will get $50,000 this year and there's more. Winner also receives a cruise for two (promo for The Real Love Boat series). Go to cbs.com/bbvote to vote.

Friday at 8PM ET/PT, special show. Finale two-hours on Sunday night.

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds into Wednesday Morning - Sept. 21

 

Sleeping with her true forever love ...
Lay's potato chips!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Stop Shuffling Cards into Your Mics!:

• Things have been super boring.
• They are spending most of their time napping.
• All of them.
• But not all together, mind you.
• If they are not napping, they are playing cards.
• No noise is more annoying than card shuffling close to a mic.
• Well, maybe Britney's non-stop talking.
• About the biggest news is that Taylor and Monte, although broken up, were in bed together once again.
• Sigh.
• I guess I'm old-fashioned.
• But it makes me lose respect for both of them.
• It's not just them. I tend to lose respect for anyone on BB who crawls in bed together.
• At least Brittany has been faithful to her husband and Turner faithful to his girlfriend.
• I realize that both Taylor and Monte are single. But they know this is on the internet and scrutinized by an often rather rabid fan base (especially Twitter BB fans).
• I certainly wouldn't do it and it surprises me that Taylor is.
• Sigh.
• In other "big" news, Brittany decided to tell Taylor the truth about the vote ... that she was the vote to cast her out rather than Turner. She thinks it will get her brownie points or something.
• I expect them to sleep late and nap a lot today.
• It's still predicted that Monte will vote Brittany out tomorrow.
• Remember -- no show tonight as Survivor and The Amazing Race season premieres will take up the primetime television slot.

Cards are boring and shuffling them is annoying!

At least with Brittany chomping on chicken,
Turner doesn't have to listen to her talk.

Cards, napping, cooking and eating.
That's all.
Report done.

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds into Monday Evening - Sept. 19

 

Breaking up is hard to do.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Drama Llamas:

• Well, it's over.
• You would think that it had just begun.
• And, it had.
• However, it's been consummated. 
• Yep, you heard me.
• Now that it has, it's done.
• Monte broke up with Taylor.
• She was taking a bath and he had a long talk with her advising her about his observations of her behavior.
• You know ... how she has a cold and condescending side which shows when she's comfortable in a position of power.
• Oh my.
• She says it's only because she has been hurt in the past.
• She would never hurt other people.
• Um. Okay.
• He had already moved all his bathroom stuff downstairs from the HOH room.
• He told Turner it was over.
• In other news, Brittany is nonstop coming up with plans, schemes and approaches to get Monte to keep her instead of Turner.
• I don't think it will work.
• Monte thinks he stands a better chance with Turner.
• We'll see.
• Apparently, the veto meeting won't be held until Thursday.
• Until then Monte has to hear her pleas and we have to endure her long talks at the cameras.
• Sigh.
• Turner really loves the tie-dying of shirts and is at it again.
• More tomorrow ...
• Oh, wait! To sign up for the SURVIVOR 43 blog pool, head to this post. To sign up for the TAR 34 blog pool, it's this link.

Listening to Monte talk about her
cold and condescending side.

Turner talking about van life to Monte.

Brittany pleading her case to Monte.

Turner interviewing a honeybee on the pool table.

She won't stop talking! Except when napping, that is.

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds into Saturday Evening - Sept. 17

 

Needs a prize for listening to Brittany!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Boring Bandicoots:

• Before we get started -- remember, the Sunday show will air 1/2 hour later at 8:30PM on the East Coast.
• Welp, that's it.
• That's the big news.
• Oh? What's happening in the house?
• Lots of napping and sleeping in.
• Tons of Brittany talk. She told them all that she isn't a toy tester and that she's a hypnotist.
• Then she talked and talked to everyone and put me in a trance!
• She mostly latches onto Taylor.
• However, she even talked to Turner for a while.
• She knows she will probably be the one leaving this week.
• Monte and Taylor are still a thing.
• He told her that he is a personal trainer, but also a former mechanical engineer.
• They got videos from loved ones yesterday.
• At least it gave them all something to talk about.
• Then they napped some more.
• Because they had to rush the noms and comps up to make Sunday's show with no Wednesday show this week, it's making this stretch until Thursday a total snoozefest, literally and figuratively.
• Ohh ... BB just gave them alcohol and they have the tie-dye shirt fun ahead!
• How exciting!

Brittany even talked at Turner.

She told all of them she's a hypnotist.

He told Taylor he's a former
mechanical engineer.

Big Brother: BB24 Power of Veto Bulletin - September 16

 

His BB life is on the line

They held the Power of Veto comp this morning. Remember -- Taylor is HOH and Turner/Brittany on the block. The Power of Veto winner will have the power to decide who goes to the Final Three.

Monte will have that choice -- he won the veto.

What's best for his game is a hard guess. I believe he will save Turner by voting out Brittany. I don't know if that indeed will be best for his game. Sitting next to Brittany should be a win for anyone right now. Hmm ...

Mr. POV winner

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds into Friday, Nominations - Sept.16

 

Is taking Turner out her best choice?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of the Final Four:

• The schedule is all wonky!
• BB opened the yard for them late at night instead of starting the set-up for the veto comp.
• And ... nominations went down last night!
• Whether thanks to the showmance or not, Taylor nominated Turner as we knew she would and Brittany.
• Of course, the veto winner has all the power this week because he or she is the sole vote.
• Turner told Monte that if he (Turner) wins the veto, which would mean that Monte would go on the block, he will refuse to have a one-on-one talk with Brittany.
• Monte talked to himself and the cameras while alone, trying to decide who would be best to keep for his own game.
• Taylor cooked for everyone.
• And Brittany went around searching for a hidden immunity idol or something.
• Yeah, wrong show. 
• But she was searching all around for something!
• I know that she and Michael previously were coming up with places to hide the veto if that comp came up. 
• Maybe that was what she was doing.
• Who knows?

HOH isn't as important as POV this week.

If only I could find a hidden immunity idol!

Is the Monte/Taylor showmance the real thing?

Big Brother: BB24 Live Eviction Show Blog Party - Sept. 15

First, I would like to thank everyone who has given me birthday greetings both here on the blog and on Facebook! 

Tonight's show should be entertaining, I'd say. As we head into it, Taylor and Alyssa are on the block. Only Turner and Brittany can vote. If there is a tie, Monte has to cast the tiebreaker vote. You can see the drama now! 

Before we get into the show, Lifeguard SueGee has updated the blog pool --

Alyssa         - JonMD1267, Auntie Leigh, SueGee, Gibby in MI
Brittany    - Judi Sweeney, MikesGirl, Tilde, YoDave
Monte    - Sally, Willie J, Rodney
Taylor    - CherylNY, Donna in AL, Cherry Pie
Turner (Matt)- Bizaro22, Glenn Allen, Jasonuwp

I will be live blogging the show, updating this post with the major happenings as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments section. I hope to see you there!

Julie looks very casual, sporting pigtails and wearing black slacks and a lavender short jacket. Into the Previously On which I will ignore.

Julie tells us a budding showmance could have game-altering consequences. Brittany tells us she will vote to keep Taylor. Alyssa is sure that she will have Turner's vote to stay. Brittany talks to Taylor about sticking together. Brittany needs someone to have her back.

Turner and Alyssa talk. She gives him her pitch. Taylor, if HOH, will take him off, she has everybody's vote, on and on. Turner is reluctant to force Monte to show his cards by breaking a tie.

Brittany is not happy the other four hangout together and have slumber parties without her. Eep. Monte is flirting with Taylor and she is flirting back. Now they are in bed together. Eep. Cuddling. Eep. Kissing! Yikes!

Brittany and Alyssa are talking. Alyssa tells Brittany that Monte, Taylor and Turner were up until 8AM. Brittany thinks Taylor was using her before and now has turned her back on her.

Julie tells us that a sympathy vote could make the difference between staying or leaving and then the cameras head to Taylor and Monte. Brittany is in tears to us because Taylor was laughing about the way Michael left. So, then Brittany is in tears to Alyssa about it. 

Brittany thinks Monte wants Taylor to stay and she can't help because Monte would do the tiebreaker. She tells Alyssa that Turner will vote what Monte wants. So, Alyssa runs to Turner (who has promised to keep her) and, with tears, asks him for a sympathy vote. Turner tries to tell her she has to separate friendships from game. She tells him it would cost him her jury vote if he votes her out. 

To the living room --

Taylor - Won't drag anyone, whole lot of fight left in game. I'm good for your game.

Alyssa - Shoutouts to all. Taylor, you're my girl and a good competitor.

The votes to evict:

Brittany - Taylor

Turner - Alyssa

It's a tie! Monte will have to show his cards! Heh. Monte votes to evict Alyssa. She does the hugging and holding the door a long time so they can peek out thing. She does not pull a Michael.

She is cordial. She thinks it was probably Turner voting her out. Julie can't tell her who voted for her. In the goodbye messages, Taylor tells her Turner and Monte had a gentlemen's agreement to keep her (Taylor), but she will fight to make sure two women as Final Two. 

We're actually having an HOH comp on the live show! They are in booths. Monte, of course, has to sit it out. Fashion Fest. All about Julie's outfits. They will see videos of her. One point for each correct answer, seven questions.

1. Brittany and Turner each get a point.

2. Taylor and Turner both get a point.

3. All get a point.

4. Taylor and Brittany right. (Three-way tie)

5. Taylor and Brittany right.

6. All right.

7. All right.

Taylor and Brittany are tied and have to go to a tiebreaker question.

In seconds, how long was the Snoozefest from start until Brittany won?

TAYLOR wins HOH!

Big Brother: BB24 Power of Veto Show Blog Party - Sept. 14

Good evening, hamster fans! Tonight's show will be the veto comp and the veto meeting. At least I think all of that will air! Please don't post any spoilers in the comments before they air on the show. 

I will be live-blogging and updating this entry constantly as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!

I will just sit through the Previously On segment. Here I am, watching things we've already seen ...

Okay. that's over. We pick up after the Nominations Ceremony. Brittany thinks she needs to get clarification from Monte as she was in a final four plan with him, Michael and Taylor. He tells her he knows there was a final three deal with the girls. She claims that was fluff, nothing really. He tells her the trust is loss. She knows she told Turner and he had to tell Monte.

She tells him she doesn't think anyone wants to talk game with her until the veto. She feels on the outs. She tells us the only way she could be safe is by winning the veto.

Filler bit about Turner and the ZingBot's zing about him not being clean. He has cleaned his bed and belongings as well as himself. Alyssa tells us he needs to learn how to do his own dishes.

Monte talks to Taylor, saying the shot needs to be made against (his buddy) Turner. He tells us that she will have to win the veto and take Brittany down forcing him to renom Turner.

Monte tells Turner that if one of the nominees are saved, Taylor would go up. He tells Turner that he wants the noms to stay the same. He tells us that he wants both Taylor and Turner to stay.

More filler -- what would you do with the bread? Taylor wants simple things -- car, dog, life. Alyssa would retire her mother because she has always had to work so hard, she herself could start a business. Monte would set up an account to help invest in his parents and help his little brother. Brittany would adopt children as she can't have children. She wants a family. Turner would give a lot of it to his mother and open a "Coffee Shack" business, buy a ring for his girlfriend.

Early time for the veto comp -- they get a two-minute warning to be in the backyard to compete. If they don't make it in two minutes, they can't play in the veto. Monte dawdles as he "has a routine to get his day started." Oopsie! He is disqualified and cannot play for veto.

He wants Turner to win, doesn't want to nominate Turner or Taylor. Giant cuckoo clocks are missing gears and they each have to get them working. It's a 27-gear puzzle.

Taylor wants to win and take Brittany down so Turner would go up. Both girls would then vote Turner out. Then Brittany tells us SHE has to win. They are all tired. No spoiler, but these are night owl hamsters. This was around five in the morning their time. Alyssa doesn't seem to grasp the concept of gears.

Brittany seems to be doing the best, wait Turner is almost there. WAIT, Brittany won the Power of Veto! She yelled "for Michael" when she won. Turner is shocked about that. Taylor is worried.

Brittany is ecstatic -- she now will make the Final Four. Monte is down and goes back to bed.

Turner tells Alyssa he thinks Brittany and Taylor will pitch him going out. Alyssa considers Turner her best friend in the house. She doesn't want him to be on the block.

Turner tries to go talk with Monte ... but he's already asleep. Taylor tells Brittany that she thinks Monte will put her up because he wouldn't want "the blood on his hands with Turner."

Brittany thinks they need to talk to Monte. Poor Monte. What a quandary he's in because he needed to do his morning routine!

Brittany talks to Monte first. He tells her he's happy she won the veto. Lies! Brittany tells us that if Monte doesn't put up Turner, her target would change from Turner to Monte. He lies to her again and tells her he and Turner aren't that close. From the look on his face, she doesn't seem to be convincing him.

He tells us she's like a suburban mob boss talking to him. He will do what he wants to do. He says to her that he hasn't made his decision yet.

Then Turner gets to talk to him. Monte tells him that he will NOT be putting him on the block. He still wants to keep Taylor and Turner. So, that means he wants to do Taylor as the renom and Alyssa's time in the house would be done if it's a tie vote.

Taylor talks to Monte now. He tells her he felt that Brittany was strong-arming him. He also says that she would be more likely to vote Turner out than Turner would be voting her out. She does her own guilt trip on him, telling him that if she goes on the block she just won't be able to trust him.

Time for the Veto Meeting. Of course, Brittany saves herself. Monte puts Taylor up as the renom. Based on his safety for next week. Brittany tells us Monte is putting Turner's game over hers and Taylor's. I say it's over Brittany's and Alyssa's. Turner tells us he might have to vote to keep Alyssa and put the tiebreaker up to Monte.

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds into Tuesday Evening - Sept. 13

 

Audreying without cause.
Maybe will have cause next week!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Dwindling Days:

• I don't have a heck of a lot for today.
• BB needs to stop giving them games.
• I never liked them playing chess and that's absent this year.
• Instead, they have Chinese Checkers and now BB has given them cards.
• Argh!
• Might as well give them books to read, too! The games cut down any good game talk!
• Brittany went and told Alyssa that Turner was planning on telling her (Alyssa) that she will be evicted just before the show goes down.
• Now, she's doing that not because she really cares about Alyssa's feelings.
• I think that now that she has a few comp wins, she thinks she can win until the end.
• She's going for the jury votes and the fact that Alyssa might be able to sway her friends to vote for her in the final two.
• The plan is still to keep Taylor and evict Alyssa.
• Alyssa, although she has felt all along that she would be the one leaving, has been regularly mingling with the others without talking game plans.
• On the other hand, Brittany keeps isolating and being quite like an Audrey.
• The final three agreement in play seems to be Monte, Turner and Taylor.
• Brittany knows of the final three agreement between them and is bitterly whining and complaining about them hanging out until all hours of the night/morning and having fun being the three.
• She says that Taylor has betrayed and lied to her.
• Mind you, she's telling Alyssa and the cameras that. She's not saying anything to the three.
• However, I am thinking that, if Brittany does win HOH, it would be Turner on the block with Monte. 
• I honestly don't know how that would turn out. Taylor knows she has always had Turner in her corner but has been growing quite close to Monte.
• I'm not sure how the Monte/Taylor thing will work out after the season as she seemed to be really into Joseph.
• I'm glad I'm not in that age group anymore. Too much relationship stress!
• That's all for tonight.

I do NOT like watching them play Chinese
Checkers or cards.

Alyssa listening to Brittany. Poor kid.

Such an excitable boy, right?

Will Monte still be smiling next week?

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds into Monday, Veto Meeting Bulletin - Sept. 12

 

He is cold. Isn't L.A. really hot right now?

I don't have a lot for you today. Brittany has been nonstop talking, cornering anyone she can. Although she won the veto this week and is safe, she's already worrying about next week.

Brittany saved herself with the veto (duh) and, as talked over with the others beforehand, Monte put Taylor up as the renom. He only had a choice between Taylor and Turner. He feels he needs Turner to back him up as he can't compete for HOH this week. Taylor would be his second choice back-up. Alyssa has never won a comp. He knows that Brittany would vote for Turner to go. Chances are that she will probably vote for Taylor to stay. Even then, if it's a tie, Monte would have little "blood on his hands" for breaking it and Alyssa going.

Yet Monte is shirtless at the same time.

She knows they all want her gone.

Might as well get tipsy!

She should remain this week; we will see.

Big Brother: BB24 HOH Comp, Nominations Show Blog Party - Sept. 11

Tonight's show is airing a half-hour later at 8:30PM Eastern. The show should cover the HOH comp and nominations. I know the live feeds are beyond that point. But I ask that no live feeds spoilers be posted on the show posts. Thank you very much!

I will be live-blogging and updating this post constantly with the major events as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!

Previously on ... and we already know all this stuff! We pick up the action and it's why Michael leaving, apparently unaired due to fillers. Right now we just have Brittany telling us how hurt she was after the eviction. Monte mentions they all knew he had to go. Turner had really been targeting Britanny and he told Alyssa that. Michael was okay with the Brittany out plan.

Then Monte wins the veto. He thinks this may be the only time they can get Michael out. Turner is not pleased with the idea. Monte tells Michael. Uh-oh! Turner tells Brittany. She's okay with it as it means she will stay. Michael goes to Taylor and Alyssa begging them to keep him. Michael trashes Brittany to Alyssa. Then he begs to Taylor. 

Into Michael's rant speech and a hurt Brittany, then Michael's exit.

Back into moving on ... Turner is trying to cover his bases as he cannot play for HOH as the outgoing HOH. That is even though he didn't get the room. Taylor thinks that Turner should be worried. She thinks she has to step up and take him out. He talks to Brittany and she too tells us she will target him if she wins HOH.

HOH Comp -- there's a killer on the loose. Play one at a time. Brittany is up first, with goggles and getting a phone call about the killer, she must search house, secure all six doors with boards, hit alarm switch. The power cuts out and she is in the dark trying to do this. Monte was next. He seems to be faster than Brittany. Taylor next. She bails on it and gives up. Alyssa next. She lost count of the ones she barricaded. She can't find the alarm switch.

Taylor - Timed out
Alyssa - 22.24
Monte - 15.15
Brittany -- into a commercial - 15.24

Monte wins HOH. He tells us that he will not put up either Taylor or Turner. So, that leaves it a bit obvious. Alyssa understands that she will go up. She knows that she's the least threat to anyone's game. Monte is a bit concerned because Alyssa has many friends in the jury house.

Brittany thinks she might stand a chance to convince Monte that she is not the biggest threat. He is a bit skeptical. He tells Taylor that he thinks it will probably Brittany and Alyssa up. He tells us that he has a final two with Turner ... he does not tell Taylor that. Taylor thinks that she and Monte will go to the end together. She asks about Turner. He tells her if she wins veto and takes down Brittany, Turner would go up and it would be just her and Brittanny voting.

Time for the Nominations Ceremony. Monte nominates Brittany, then Alyssa. Wishes them luck with the veto.
