Big Brother 13 Season Finale Blog Party

The show is about to start here on the East Coast. As it airs, I'll update this entry with major events. It's been a long odd season and the final three going into the finale aren't what I would have liked from the beginning. But, I guess since they're there, they're deserving. I guess.

The real fun is in the comments and I hope you all join in! Partay!

Back to part one of the final HoH ... surprise, surprise ... Adam is the first out early in the mixer bowl. Rachel is in the zone, for sure. 46.10 minutes and Porsche is out. Rachel wins the first round!

Second round - Porsche vs. Adam. Underwater maze, matching HoH faces to correct spot. One at time, Porsche first. Although he's a smoker, Adam can definitely hold his breath longer. But he screws up discarding then retrieving his goggles. 6 1/2 minutes for him and 3 min. 50 sec for Porsche. So he sucked again!

Kalia joins the jury, then Jordan. Awkward!

3rd round of HoH -- Rachel vs. Porsche -- how well do they know the jury? They both did poorly, but Rachel is the new HoH!

Porsche and Adam can plea their case to stay. Rachel votes to evict ... Adam. She's keeping her deal with Porsche.

Time for the jury interrogation.

Now they each can plea their case to stay. Rachel is repeating herself again, but she does make a solid case. Porsche, hmm ...

Voting time --
The order inserting their keys for the win:
Brendon
Daniele
Jeff
Shelly
Kalia
Jordan
Adam

But first ... the early hamsters return.

The jury votes:
B -- Rachel
D -- Porsche
J -- Rachel
S -- Rachel
K -- Porsche
J -- Rachel
A -- Porsche

RACHEL WINS BB13!

America's favorite houseguest -- Jeff wins!

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Finale Day

The end is nigh ... finally. Tonight is the big season finale of Big Brother with the final HoH round between Rachel and Porsche. As usual, it should have ended more than a couple of days ago. Three hamsters in the house is always tedious. These particular three hamsters, even more so. I've had a few people ask why I haven't posted updates the past few days. Well, honestly ... I tend to post updates when something actually happens. After all, how many times can I post:

• The girls have agreed to take each other to the final two.
• Adam keeps pleading his case with each nonetheless.
• Adam begged America to vote him as favorite player.
• They played cards.
• They talked in funny accents.
• Not funny ha-ha, mind you. Funny annoying.
  
• They napped.
• They worked out.
  
• They cooked.
• They ate.
• Then they played more cards.
• They reminisced.
• They tried to figure jury votes.
• They tie-died shirts.
• They ate some more.
• You get the drift.
• Now, had I caught some actual news -- say something like one of the girls said they'd take Adam to the F2 -- I would have broken in with a post.
  
• However, it does look like the girls will definitely take each other.
• I guess we'll see tonight!
  

Stop back tonight for the Survivor premiere party at 8 PM ET followed the Big Brother 13 season finale party at 9:30!

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Bulletin - HoH Round Two

It sounds like a rough one -- Porsche and Adam are all beat up, scraped and bleeding. They apparently were underwater bringing up hamster names to solve a puzzle, then filling in the puzzle underwater.

Oh.

And Porsche won.

Adam is telling both of them he'll sacrifice the $500,000 if one of them will take him to the final two. He'll tell the jury to give it to whomever takes him.

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Saturday 9/10

Final three dinner not what they thought it would be.

Cards, cards and more cards. Here's what's been happening inside that Big Brother House of Dwindling Days:

• They played Disney trivia.
• Hot tub.
• Cards.
• Did laundry. After several washings, they still have paint on the comp clothes from the other night.
  
• Tanned.
• Adam smoked and stood around a lot.
  
• You get the drift. A whole lotta nuthin' going on in the house.
• The BB voice started doing odd announcements such as the tallest building west of the Mississippi has 73 floors.
• I don't think the announcements have anything to do with a comp.
• I believe it's for "amusement."
• Neither of the girls can really figure out who Adam will take if he wins HoH.
• Nor can I.
• They got all dressed up thinking they were going to have the big Final Three dinner with the season recap show.
• Oops. Never mind. BB apparently told them there wouldn't be a show until the finale.
• Too bad, so sad. All dressed up and nowhere to go.
• They had a nice dinner anyway and zinged the past hamsters.
• BB also told them the finale is Wednesday.
• Round Two of the HoH comp is expected later today, probably evening here on the East Coast.
  

All dressed up and nowhere to go.

What? No sweat suit or bikini?

Big Brother 13 HoH Endurance Updates 9/08

10:39 PM -- Feeds are back and Rachel won this first HoH round.

10:35 PM ET - Porsche asks Adam if he'd make sure she doesn't drown, but then says she's scared to let go. Rachel, meanwhile, is solid as a rock. The mixer spun about five times more then to trivia. I think she dropped, but need the feeds to come back before I commit to it. What wusses this bunch are! In previous seasons, this would go on for hours.



10:32 PM -- Rachel and Porsche still up. Porsche is starting to look sick and make groaning noises.



10:24 PM ET -- Feeds back. Adam off. Porsche and Rachel still strong. Back to trivia.

10:17 PM ET -- Rachel and Porsche solid as a rock. Adam whining, swearing and squirming. Then to trivia. Wanna bet he's off when it comes back?


10:10 PM ET - All are still up. The newest updates will be on the top of this post.

Big Brother 13 Live Veto Mtg, Eviction and HoH Start Blog Party

The show is about to start here on the East Coast. As it airs, I'll update this entry with major events. But the real fun is in the comments and I hope you all join in!

I'm expecting tonight's show to end with an endurance comp for final HoH. I'll be posting a separate entry for that once the feeds are up again.

Nominations -- Rachel is safe. Porsche and Jordan are on the block. He gives them a speech about winning the veto.

Veto comp -- Jukebox Veto. Clues about the hamsters similar to the stairs veto comps of a few years back. Porsche wins the veto!

Live veto meeting -- Porsche saves herself. Rachel goes up with Jordan.

Porsche evicts Jordan ... sniffle.

GAH! Breaking news here -- two terror threats and Bloomberg speaking in a press conference. They CLAIM we won't miss any BB. This, of course, is the NYC area.

HoH comp first round -- Big Brother Mixer -- they are the blades on the mixer. Winner advances to the final round.

I'm setting up a separate post for the live endurance comp updates. See you there!

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Quickie Wednesday Evening 9/07

The feeds returned at midnight (ET). Gee, now they have real playing cards to make things more boring than their tea bag cards! Here's the skinny from inside that Big Brother House of Cards:

• Adam got a stuffed clown in his HoH stuff.
• Porsche joked about cutting off it's foot (shoe) to send with Jordan to give to Jeff.
• Jordan was packing, then called to the Diary Room and is now ironing a dress.
• Rachel said she had to pack but didn't feel like it.
• Rachel, Adam and Porsche are playing cards in the HoH room.
• BB gives them expired goods in the HoH baskets.
• Very little game talk ... because they're playing cards!
• They did have a comp today, must have been the veto comp.
• Alas, looks like Rachel and Jordan are on the block.
• At one point, Adam and Porsche high-fived about being in the house all summer.
• Rachel said, "Nothing like rubbing it in my face."
• She didn't say it really mean or anything.
• Adam said she may or may not be there for the summer.
• Porsche won the veto.
• I'm not sure who originally was on the block -- Adam probably put Porsche and Jordan as he said he would before the feeds cut.
• Doesn't matter, Porsche has all the power. It will be up to her whether Rachel or Jordan is out tomorrow.
• It sounds like she's leaning towards voting Jordan out.
  

Big Brother 13 Sept. 7 Not So Live Eviction Show Blog Party

The show is about to start here on the East Coast. As it airs, I'll update this entry with major events. But the real fun is in the comments and I hope you all join in!

Keep in mind, although the show is being presented as "live," it was taped yesterday. Let's see if the spoilers have been right!

Veto comp -- a giant shark and pies, Otev the Sweet-Toothed Shark. Yep, it's the yearly Otev. They bring pies to him according to his clues. Jordan out first. Rachel is out. Kalia out. Between Adam and Porsche. Adam wins! Kalia needs to stop the tears.

Jury house time! Jeff lit into Shelly. Surprise!

Adam does not use the veto.

Eviction time. Porsche, nice speech, nice words to all. Kalia, Adam play like an All Star, not a fan, Jordan, kept my word to you.

Votes to evict --
Jordan -- Porsche
Adam -- Kalia

Rachel is the tiebreaker -- votes out Kalia.

HoH time -- the fortune teller speaks! Adam wins the T/F statements with Jordan on his tail. Porsche was a poor showing in third. (I could have done better after listening to the fortune teller on the live feeds.)

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Update Tuesday 9/06

Since I last reported, not a heck of a lot went on on the feeds themselves:

• Crystal (the fortune teller) repeated all of the premonitions she already told them, thus keeping them up until around 6 AM their time.
• At around 9 AM their time, BB gave them champagne and crafts ... to put on a rather "fake" show for the Showtime audience tonight.
• It should be an obvious ploy unless they really edit things!
• The feeds have been blocked since this afternoon and should remain blocked through to at the earliest, tomorrow's fake live eviction show.
• However, since it is taped in front of an audience, you know information is going to get out!
• According to quite reliable sources, tonight's eviction had Kalia getting the boot 2-1.
• Jordan voted to keep her, Adam voted her out and Rachel was the tiebreaker.
• Adam won HoH ... not surprising with his intense scary bizarre fixation on the premonitions last night.
• Of course, I didn't SEE this happen, but the sources are reliable.
  
• I'll be taking a rest and won't be posting until tomorrow's blog party post for the not live live eviction!
• See you then ...
  

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Quick Monday Evening Update

Her name is Crystal

The fortune teller has come to life, this time talking. First she said hello to Porsche by name. Porsche screamed and called in Rachel. They both screamed and got everyone else in there.

The fortune teller told them first that one of them will be the winner of Big Brother. (Well, duh.)

Then she said she had premonitions and they would have to hear all of them to win HoH. She would laugh and they need to come running.

The first clue was about Shelly becoming rich with her 2018 book about how she has the perfect tan and you can too. It will make #3 on the all-time bestseller list.

Okay, she's laughing again ... in 2017, tired of the Miami heat, Porsche will move to Anchorage, Alaska and buy an igloo with an Eskimo named Ernie.

This is probably going to go on for most of the night and I have to get some sleep as I have to go to the doctor, then physical therapy in the morning. But I'll hang in for a while.

She laughed again.

In 2014, Jeff will disappear from society. He will last be seen wandering the Chicago streets muttering two words, "Clown shoe!" Be gone!

Laughing again ...

October 15 3:42 PM, Daniele will reconcile with her father Dick. On October 15, 3:49 PM they will go back to not speaking.

Laughing again ...

In 2014 in a sleep study after sleeping for 19 days straight and making national headlines, Kalia will get her dream job as a mattress and pillow tester.

Laughing again ...

In 2016 Lawon will take NY Fashion Week by storm when he launches his Handsomefied line of hats, ties and jackets.

Laughing again ...

After taking 9 years to earn his PhD, Brendon will shock scholars and physicians alike by finding the cure for an ailment that's been bugging him his whole life after discovering the cure for athlete's foot.

Laughing again ...

In 2020 Adam will file bankruptcy after investing his life savings in a line of bacon-scented heavy metal teddy bears for children.

Laughing again ...

In 2018 Rachel will give birth to a 9 lb 6 oz bouncing baby boy named Buki, Jr. after his proud father.

Laughing again ...

In 2012 Cassi will land a role alongside international mega-superstar David Hasselhoff in a remake of a countrified version of Baywatch, Riverwatch.

Laughing again ...

In 2015 Evel Dick will start a new tradition by bringing Christmas gifts to heavily tattooed orphans changing his name to ... old St. Dick?

Laughing again ...

In 2013 Dominic will grace the cover of Seventeen Magazine with total DOMination, he'll dethrone pop sensation Justin Bieber as America's favorite heart throb.

Laughing again ...

In 2015 Keith will land a job hosting a new dating show called Love Rejection but it will be short-lived after it's revealed that he tried to date all 29 contestants.

She almost went into the next premonition but then the tape stopped and she told them to leave the parlor room. If I'm not mistaken, I think Jordan is the only one left now.

Laughing again ...

In 2011 after the runaway success of the Humilitard, Jordan will launch a line of Humilitard-inspired items including the Humilicar, Humilifier, and the Humilibake oven.

Okay, she went through all the hamsters. I hope it's over. On another note, Rachel just asked Jordan if she would reconsider her vote to keep Kalia. Jordan says it doesn't matter, she can change since she's sure Kalia will go whether she votes for her or not.

I'll be signing off for a while soon unless I hear the fortune teller laugh in next few minutes. Some of my Crystal quotes might not be perfect, but commenter FA has been transcribing them, along with the PT times and Crystal's good-byes for each one in comments. (Thanks, FA!)

MORNING UPDATE: No sleep for the hamsters as the fortune teller kept at it all night, repeating the fortunes already told. Rachel did sleep -- she can't compete in HoH and is strong on the fortunes from the first round. Adam seems the strongest with Jordan confused at times. Porsche and Kalia have a few things outright wrong.

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds PoV Update 9/05

As expected, Adam did NOT use the PoV -- Kalia and Porsche remain on the block.

Jordan thinks that Kalia has actually played the game and taken chances, unlike Porsche. However, both Rachel and Jordan are sure that Adam will vote out Kalia. So they remain discussing which will go. But I'm going to bet it will be Kalia.

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Monday Morning 9/05

Adam still holds the power this week

No, I haven't forgotten y'all ... there just isn't all that much new to report. Here's the latest from that Big Brother House of Fools:

• The PoV meeting hasn't gone down yet. I expect it later today.
• Doesn't matter; Adam will NOT be using the Power of Veto.
• Not only has he told Rachel and Jordan he won't (and, when the dude actually commits like that, he sticks to it), but he told US ... the live feed watchers.
• I wish Adam was more interesting when he talks to the feeds watchers. He's no Dick at Nite show.
• But, at least he DOES talk to us when he's alone.
• They continue to all get along when together, no brouhahas.
• They continue to play cards made out of tea bags.
• Except Jordan, that is. She doesn't really like (know how?) to play cards.
• Porsche is now sporting a new puke green velour sweat suit. @@
• They all seem to be dressing up in their new clothes for PoV this morning.
• Porsche is now wearing a floor-length dress with a hoodie over it. @@
• Kalia and Porsche still work on Adam whenever they're separately alone with him, often throwing each other under the reality TV bus.
• But it ain't gonna happen. He won't use it.
• It still looks like Kalia will go this week.
• Despite Kalia's extremely annoying personal habits and voice, I'd still prefer Porsche go.
• Now that Porsche is actually shown doing stuff other than sleeping on the feeds, I'm not impressed.
• Rachel continues to be normal-acting sans Brendon.
• She might want to think about that when she gets out of the house.
• That's all she wrote ...
  

Hanging out with Adam ... love the gown and hoodie, not!

Tea bag card game in action.

Big Brother 13 HoH Result and Nominations Show Blog Party 9/04

The show is about to start here on the East Coast. Shockingly, it didn't get delayed by tennis! As it airs, I'll update this entry with major events. But the real fun is in the comments and I hope you all join in!

Rachel won HoH by a wide margin!

Rachel goes to the room to find Pandora's Box -- Tori Spelling and a shopping spree! She knows Adam's Tori fixation and thinks there can't be a big twist. So she goes for it. Rachel instead got Jessie. Eww.

The house got Tori Spelling. Adam is agog. Then the house got a three-minute shopping spree. Rachel didn't get to go.

Adam, Porsche and Kalia all pleaded their cases with her. But only Jordan and Adam are safe. Kalia and Porsche are on the block.

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Saturday Night 9/04

Kalia crashes and burns

In the beginning of the season, I would never have predicted this final five. Of course, at the beginning, I was thinking Evel Dick would be entertaining me all summer. Instead we have Adam with his metal persona gone standing and weaving while smoking cigarettes. Oh well. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Whine and Cheese:

• As I posted earlier, Adam won the veto.
• Now, before the veto comp went down, Adam gave his word to Jordan and Rachel that if he won the veto, he wouldn't use it.
• Of course, if he were to use the veto, it would be Jordan on the block as the replacement.
• Adam has played a sucky Enzo-like but not as entertaining as Enzo game all season.
• But, one thing about him -- when he commits to something, he does stick with it.
• When he's iffy or wants to vote another way, he never tells the person pleading to him what he'll do.
• So I think he'll remain true to his word and NOT use the veto.
• He even gave Jordan his girlfriend's necklace to hold as some sort of insurance.
• Yeah, that reeks of Shelly and her ring, but ...!
  
• The veto comp was an Otev one, this time with them retrieving pies.
• How he won, I don't know. I'm still in shock.
• Both Kalia and Porsche tried their hardest to mingle through the room.
• Adam told them he probably will not be using the veto.
• But how could he betray them like that?
• Kalia fell apart when Jordan told her she probably won't be voting for her to stay.
• She exiled herself in the bedroom crying her little heart out while mumbling that Adam and Porsche don't deserve to be in the house.
  
• But, of course, she is so much more deserving!
• Eventually she went into the Diary Room probably asking to DOR (voluntarily leave).
• I'm just not getting her. Many "deserving" people have already been voted out, most not throwing quite the dramatic fit she's throwing.
• While the Kalia drama was going on inside the house, everyone outside was getting along playing pool and hanging out in the backyard.
• I'm not sure of how things will be timed in the coming days as they will most likely have a taped eviction on Tuesday.
• At this point, it looks like Adam won't use the veto and it's Kalia going home.
  

The fortune teller comes alive for the group,
yet says nothing.

Adam has the power.
Who woulda thunk it?

Porsche now lives in a gray sweat suit.

Rachel continues to be better without Brendon.

Jordan needs to STOP PLAYING WITH HER HAIR!
Most of the girls do it and it drives me crazy while watching.

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Update - PoV 9/03

Oh my gosh.

Adam won the Power of Veto.

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds - Nominations 9/02

Rachel nominated Kalia and Porsche for eviction.

Surprised? No? I didn't think so.

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Friday Afternoon 9/02

Rachel reads her HoH letter and DOES NOT CRY.

At least after the live show, we have some action for a couple of days before the doldrums set in again. I'm dreading when it's down to two of these hamsters for the last bunch of days. But, that's not now and now actually has stuff going on! Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Krazy Koi:

• Last night, after the HoH comp ended, Adam lamented that it hadn't been a donut EATING contest. He's sure he would have won that!
• I don't know. I think Kalia could give him a run for the money when it comes to eating!
• The new newbie alliance already has a crack in it because Porsche, smart gal she is, realized that Kalia voted to keep Shelly.
• Kalia told her it was because Rachel and Jordan told her they were voting for Adam to go and she didn't want to vote against the house.
• Yeah, right. She actually had less to fear from Shelly staying. Adam is a Porsche buddy and would knock Kalia out before Porsche.
• Well, that is if he could ever win anything!
• Kalia thinks shes her own worst critic.
• Wait until she reads internet sites!
• Porsche, who's barely talked game all season, has latched onto Adam and strategy talk. Is she deserting Kalia? Hmmm ...
• In the HoH comp, at the 13 minute time limit, Rachel had 20 donuts while Jordan and Adam came in second with 15 donuts each. Kalia was far behind.
• In her HoH room, Rachel got photos of herself and Brendon.
• SHOCKER!
• Kalia is worried that Rachel and Jordan are after her because they led her to believe Adam was being voted out just five minutes before the vote.
• Jordan tried to point out to Adam that Porsche will dump him whenever as she was more concerned about going along with the house than saving him.
• Rachel and Jordan have decided that Kalia needs to be their target for the week as she's more "dangerous" than Porsche and Adam is just a waffler.
• They're right about Kalia. But, I for one, despite my annoyance at her various annoying habits on the feeds and even her voice ... would rather see her in the finals over either Adam or Porsche. She has played a better game, methinks.
• Don't take that for me liking her, though!
• Rachel doesn't like being in the HoH room without Brendon.
• I prefer she's there without Brendon. She's like a different person without him in the house (well, after the second time he left, that is).
• They got booze last night. Without Brendon, Rachel behaves okay with booze.
• Kalia was the first one to run to Rachel's HoH room to try to save her butt.
• Although she is the target, Rachel seems to agree with me that, of the bunch, Kalia is the one trying the hardest in the game.
• But I had to switch cams then. Kalia's never-ending circular conversation was driving me nutso!
• If they have a talking comp, Kalia would knock it out of the park!
• Rachel thinks the upcoming week will be a shortened one. She's right.
• Then came ... Pandora's Box! Well, trivia for us, excitement for them.
• Rachel opened it because it said something bad for her, good for the house.
• The house got one of those clothes sprees and Tori Spelling.
• Adam is in love.
• Rachel, once again, got Jessie.
• Sigh. What the hell is wrong with Allison Grodner that she thinks anyone ever wants to see that jerk again?!? STOP BRINGING HIM BACK! LET HIM VANISH!
• The others grabbed clothes for Rachel, too.
• Adam got a couple of dresses for his girlfriend.
• Rachel could see them shopping and Tori Spelling-ing while she suffered with Jessie.
• Nominations are later today. When I know, you'll know!
  

What being a hamster will do to you ...

Jordan, however, always maintains her cuteness.

Maybe now Porsche will burn that pink velour sweat suit!

Adam looks better in a good hat.

The spree results!

Big Brother 13 HoH Comp Update - 9/01

As I get this posted, the feeds are still blocked. I want to thank Joe and Eviction Updates for their tremendous show updates on the blog party post.

When I know who won, you'll know. Keep checking back!

10:17 PM ET -- Feeds still blocked.

10:25 PM ET -- Feeds return, still waiting for confirmation on winner. They're all coughing a lot and clearing their throats.

Adam said "Good job" to Rachel, but it doesn't necessarily mean she won. I'm pretty sure she did, but I want more before I declare Rachel the winner.

Confirmation: Rachel is the new HoH.

Big Brother 13 Live Eviction and HoH Show Blog Party 9/01

Here in the NYC area, tonight's live eviction show won't be airing until 1:37 AM due to a Jets game. I'll be watching an East Coast feed online. But, since it's hard to watch the show on the computer and update the post on same said computer at the same time, I ask that commenters fill in updates!

If you're in the same delay boat as I am, just Google the term "Big Brother east coast feed" and you'll find several sites to watch it on time on line. Or, of course, CBS posts the show on the website the next day.

Big Brother 13 Live Feeds Into Thursday Pre-Show 9/01

As exciting as it gets ...
all sleep during the HoH lockdown

This group is really not entertaining. A hecka lotta nuthin' been goin' down in the house. Thus, I don't have much to say and I'm handing off screen caps from the feeds instead.

Shelly is resigned that she'll be leaving tonight and blames it on the one big move she made in the house. Now, her actual early game had been very good in the beginning. It's a shame she overplayed her strategy and then self-imploded with her Jeff vote.

Rachel is still more "normal" when playing with Jordan than she has been in either season. Perhaps Brendon is good for her love life outside of the house, but it's obvious she is much more stable and "normal" without him in the house.

Stop on back for the show post at 9 PM ET!

When in doubt, EAT!

The new Dynamic Duo?

A solo Adam gives a long boring tribute to hamsters gone by.

Rachel tries to communicate with Brendon's photo.

What? No pink velour sweat suit?

Kalia stays quiet for just a bit.

Shelly sans a cigarette while outside.
Probably my last screen cap of her.
