BB25: Live Feeds into Sunday - Nov. 5

 

As it should be ... Final Four together laughing.

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

  • Yesterday Felicia planted herself in the dining room for most of the day. Later she mentioned to the camera she did that so she wouldn't feel as isolated.
  • Now, it's Jag, so who knows exactly what he will do last minute. BUT ... it seems like he's at least leaning towards voting Matt out.
  • Felicia proposed the idea to him.
  • Jag ran and told both Matt and Bowie Jane what Felicia had said.
  • However ... Jag later talked with Bowie Jane about it and said it would be best for his game.
  • I guess we will see later tonight!
  • Felicia cooked dinner for them. @@
  • BB (or, as Felicia would say, Mr. B) gave them the selfie camera and told all four of them to go around the house taking photos in various poses.
  • Whether that was a move on BB's part to un-isolate Felicia or not, I do not know.
  • They did have fun doing it, though.
  • But, when finished, the Three went up to the HOH to mess around, play Never Have I Ever, drink wine and have a grand old time.
  • Felicia returned to her Comic Room and talked to Mr. B before asking him to turn the lights out.
  • She told him about planting herself at the table and feeling so isolated, the young folks are having a good time upstairs and she's okay, just a few more days left.
  • Meanwhile, the Three got the idea to play Hide and Seek.
  • Believe it or not, Jag said they should get Felicia to join them.
  • Mr. B had just turned out the lights in the Comic Room, but Felicia joined in on the game.
  • They worked it so the first one found had to be the seeker in the next round.
  • It was fun to watch and definitely great to see everyone getting along and being friendly.
  • They will lose the HOH room today.
  • Matt packed for the first time.
  • Oh. They got dollar store games to play.
  • You still have to wonder what they think the live feeds cover -- the Three were walking around talking about things from the house they plan to steal! Um. Okaaaay. That's not gonna happen now!
  • So, will Jag stick with the evict Matt decision or fall back to Felicia?
  • Laters!

Matt had to slide Felicia out of hiding.

Matt in the cupboard.

Bowie Jane thought hiding under pillows was good.

Felicia is behind the chair in the corner.

Jag hid in the storage room.

Drinking wine together before playtime.

BB25: Live Feeds Power of Veto Winner - Nov. 3

 

And Bowie Jane keeps on smiling.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Miserable Mice:
  • Well, the Three included Felicia in a game of cards.
  • They may have been told to do it.
  • I have seen more Diary Room intervention this season than others.
  • I recall Matt saying that the DR told him that the live feeders and viewers thought that tooth flossing thing was disgusting and I haven't seen one since.
  • So, with the live feeders aware of how the Three planned to treat Felicia going into the POV comp, I wouldn't be surprised if they squashed it.
  • They already made her look the villain in the last episode.
  • Anyway ... the Power of Veto comp took place today.
  • This is the most important comp of the season as the POV is the sole vote to take out the fourth player and get it down to the final three.
  • Matt and Felicia are on the block.
  • Oh.
  • And Jag won veto.
  • In other years I would be thrilled to have my random blog pool pick do so well.
  • And I did like him at the beginning.
  • But he changed with the comp wins.
  • He even said he has carried Matt through the game when there would be no Jag in the game at this time had Matt not brought him back from the unanimous eviction!
  • Argh.

Hopefully reading Matthew 5:38-48, King James Version

Of course.

The Amazing Race 34: 'How Am I Going to Survive This?' Episode Blog Party - Nov. 30

 

I will be live blogging 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!

We're into the final four this week. Although the TV listing isn't saying it as such, I think tonight's episode is the penultimate one for the season. Tonight, the four should be knocked down to three and we know it's three teams going to the finale. The episode for December 7 is entitled 'The Only Leg That Matters.' I say finale even though it's just an hour and isn't labeled as such!

The Wonderful Lifeguard SueGee has updated the blog pool listing. Here's where we stand:

Aubrey & David -- Donna in FL, Dr Celine, Skyriverblue
Derek & Claire -- Beachbound Gmom, ChicMc, Donna NY
Emily & Molly -- Joanne Victoria, Judi Sweeney, Sharon N
Luis & Michelle -- Andi, Mikes Girl, RJMnS

PHILIMINATED
Aastha & Nina
Tim & Rex
Rich & Dom
Linton & Sharik
Abby & Will (Covid)
Glenda & Lumumba
Quinton & Mattie
Marcus & Michael

Race fans ready? Let's GO!

Recap City, here we are. Luis and Michelle win first place, Marcus and Michael get Philiminated. Teams are flying to the Republic of Iceland. We get Expedia exposure as teams get helicopter rides to their clue. It does look stunning!

Ten percent of Iceland is covered in glaciers. Teams must climb a glacier ice wall, one at a time, to retrieve a flag. Aubrey and Luis go first for their teams. Luis is down, so Michelle is going up. Now David is heading up.

Luis/Michelle off to the next clue first but just about even. Now Derek and Molly are climbing. Molly is better at it than Derek. Emily and Claire climbing. Claire down first. Emily and Molly in last place but so close. T

The teams have to drive stick shift vehicles to the next clue. Emily and Molly are still last but not all that far behind. Derek, like Luis before him, is having trouble driving the car. David/Aubrey are just ahead of Luis/Michelle with Derek/Claire in third.

The first two teams turned around and pass Derek/Claire going the other way. The first two thought they drove by the turn off. Molly/Emily in a car and having manual transmission problems. Of course.

Derek/Claire to Roadblock first. Who's feeling Misty-Eyed ... Derek does it. It has diving, rappelling down falls into a cave to get a clue and more involved. David does not swim, and Luis passes by him. Will Molly catch up? Hmm.

Derek and Claire headed to the next clue. Then Luis/Michelle. David makes it through, so the twins are still in last place.

Expedia Experience, they have to memorize volcano names and eruption years while snorkeling a fissure. The order remains but all four teams are quite close. Teams do go with a dive instructor.

It's ice-cold water in Iceland. All four teams are there at the same time although Luis/Michelle and Derek/Claire have a head start. Luis/Michelle have to go back and try again. Derek/Claire are good and move on into first place! They are on the way to the Pit Stop.

Luis/Michelle pass. Aubrey/David do not pass, neither do the twins. David is having extreme problems. The twins pass while he's still struggling. Now Aubrey/David are wrong again. They give up and take the two-hour penalty.

Pit Stop Order

1. Claire/David - also win Expedia trip to London.
2. Luis/Michelle
3. Molly/Emily
4. Aubrey/David - Philiminated

Finale next week!
