BB25: Last Live Feeds of the Season - Day 100

They bid the live feeders adieu.

But had to add their silly M

Here's the last and latest from inside that Big Brother House of Finally Finale:

• Once again, not too much to report.
• Yesterday Bowie made pitches to both of the others.
• She knows she would lose to both, so she's pitching for second place.
• When she talked to Jag, she actually made some excellent points -- if he wins Part Three and takes Matt to the Final Two, he's throwing away the 750 grand.
• However, she thinks he's sure to win against her and she would be satisfied with second place.
• Jag did seem to ponder it for a bit.
• However, he and Matt met up in the bathroom and compared notes on Bowie Jane's talks.
• Her talk with Matt had been more along the lines of an assured win against her, iffy against Jag.
• In the end, it looks like Jag and Matt will stick together in the final two.
• In other news, Matt trash talked America/Cory again.
• They went through all the other players and decided most were overrated.
• They napped ... at one point the guys cuddled together with Bowie Jane awkwardly atop them.
• They each played Solitaire ... solitarily.
• They have not done much housecleaning as of yet. You know Felicia would be going with the vacuum!
• I'm waiting to see if they do something for the feeds close before I post this.
• Live feeds ended at 1:00PM ET.

Discussing Bowie Jane's pitches

Thinking about Bowie Jane's pitch

Not smiling as much lately

BB25: Live Feeds HOH Part Two Winner - Nov. 7

 

Don't they even toast the English muffins?

As they have every morning, Matt's scrambled eggs, bacon and an English muffin. Now, I do like that breakfast. But every single day? They don't seem to know how to cook anything else. Hmm ... cereal?

The live feeds went down at about 12:30PM ET. They came back up at about 6:30PM ET.

JAG won Part Two. Part Three of the HOH comp will have Matt versus Jag on the live show Thursday.

BB25: Live Feeds into Tuesday - Nov. 7

 

How do you cook raw chicken?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of The Trashtalking Three:

• I really don't have much to report.
• There were a couple really long feeds blocks with adoptable animals.
• Maybe they had the reminisce the season bit in one.
• They apparently did not get their videos from home or play Part Two of the HOH comp as not a word was mentioned about either.
• Well, other than Jag and Bowie Jane fussing that Matt won Part One.
• Jag is definitely regretting his choice to send Felicia packing instead of Matt.
• Most of the day was spent trashtalking the jury and pre-jury players.
• Matt seems fixated on the Cory/America showmance and thinks they will be jealous of him and Reilly. @@
• Bowie and Jag are glad the manipulators are all gone from the house. @@
• While they were fussing about food (no Felicia to cook for them!), I was thinking there had to be a good supply.
• I was right.
• They decided to make a chicken dish for dinner.
• That was after Matt made a late lunch of his One Dish Wonder -- scrambled eggs while Bowie Jane cooked bacon.
• I cringe every time I see Matt crack open eggs. He mushes them. I can't imagine how many little crunchy bits are in the scrambled eggs!
• Oh. The chicken is raw. Oh noes! What do we do with this? How will we know it's done?
• Now, I realize they can't Google recipes and such. But, at her real age -- not her BB age -- Bowie Jane should have some kind of basic kitchen knowledge! 
• I get the feeling that neither Matt nor Jag have ever moved away from Mom's home cooking.
• Still, mid-20s should have some kind of idea.
• I guess the juror's roundtable with Dr. Will was last night. Of course, that is taped so we don't see it on the live feeds.
• You'll notice that Bowie Jane is not wearing her winter parka. BB gave them space heaters a week or two ago and they finally have them working to their satisfaction.
• I'm thinking they will HAVE to have Part Two of the HOH comp today for editing purposes.
• Oh ... I posted in comments yesterday that I saw in a Felicia interview that her brother died the week she was on the block with Mecole. Production let her speak to her family and her family wanted her to continue on with the show. She told none of the others about it.
• That's about it!

Too busy talking trash to smile.

Matt and his one dish wonder.

BB25: Live Feeds, Part One HOH Winner - Nov. 6

 

Could he be regretting his decision?

Here's a quick update from inside that Big Brother House of What Have I Done?:

• The live feeds were down most of the night.
• When they returned, MATT won Part One of the three-part final HOH comp.
• It was an endurance in which they hung onto something and got wet and cold.
• Bowie Jane and Jag were talking about Matt holding on with just one hand at times.
• They both commented that Felicia would have fallen off soon after it started.
• I could be way off base, but the way they were talking reminds me a bit of the final HOH comp round that Evel Dick won against all odds. But that was all one-handed.
• Although they seem very confused, I'll set the record straight what happens from here.
• HOH Part Two will have Jag and Bowie Jane competing. As winner of Part One, Matt automatically advances to Part Three.
• It will be a taped comp, done probably within the next day or two.
• That one is usually a mental comp.
• HOH Part Three will have the winners of Part One and Part Two competing live on finale night.
• So, that would be Matt against the winner of Part Two -- either Jag or Bowie Jane.
• The winner of Part Three sends one person out the door and it's down to the final two.
• Then the jury votes between the two on the live finale.

Bowie Jane can't even smile.

No need to give stank face, you won it!

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 into Saturday - Nov. 4

 

After Felicia leaves, they "wake up."

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of They May Be Jerkfaces:

• Felicia didn't make dinner for them last night.
• Heh.
• According to Bowie Jane, they had to eat like they were back in college.
• That must have been some college she attended -- with a refrigerator full of great leftovers, cupboards full of food, a food storage room with another refrigerator full of food.
• At one point Matt and Jag pretended to be sleeping at the table when Felicia came into the kitchen.
• They "awakened" when she left.
• Felicia has mostly been napping, playing Solitaire or reading the Bible. She has reread her HOH letter and looked at her pictures sent for HOH.
• Matt is showing a side I truly dislike. He made a comment about using the mamas only for food and now they don't need them anymore.
• While I can get behind the playing comps well and even the lying on Big Brother, I don't care for meanness. 
• Bowie Jane, Matt and Jag have become outright mean to the one person left in the house with them.
• Sheesh. They could just humor her, let her go tomorrow night and then trash talk them all.
• For her credit, Felicia had a talk with Jag today at the Memory Wall. She pointed out (correctly) that Matt would probably have more jury votes in a final two with him.
• Felicia went on to list that she would have three votes in a final two with him -- Cirie, America and Cory. Jag would have four votes -- Matt, Bowie Jane, Cameron and Blue.
• Now, I'm not sure he would have those four votes, especially cutting Matt and Bowie Jane.
• But she seemed to talk a good talk.
• At this point, comp beast or not, Jag might lose a final two with any of the three others left in there for now.
• I guess we will see.
• We will find out in tomorrow's live eviction which one he cuts -- Matt or Felicia.
• Then it will be on to the three part head of household comp.

Bowie Jane mocked Izzy but Izzy was entertaining.

Should I boot Matt? Felicia?

Cruel has come out in Matt. It's not pretty.

Felicia spends time alone playing Solitaire.

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.

BB25: Live Feeds into Friday, Nominations - Nov. 3

 

And Bowie Jane kept on smiling.

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

• Unlike most weeks, the live feeds came back on not all that long after the show on the East Coast aired.
• Poor Felicia was out in the kitchen getting together a big meal of fried chicken and mac and cheese for dinner ... for them.
• Where were they?
• In a room trying to decide who would go on the block with Felicia.
• After all, the screen in the living room said "Nominations Today." 
• That's meaning like today, like middle of the night.
• Felicia told Matt that if he goes on the block and Jag wins veto, Jag will take him out.
• The Three played a numbers guessing game to determine Matt would go on the block with Felicia.
• Of course, the veto winner has all the power this week and will send one out the door.
• The feeds were blocked for nominations.
• Yep, Matt and Felicia on the block.
• Power of Veto should be played later today.
• They were told of the Sunday eviction.
• That's about it!

Nominations Today (as in last night!)

Who will we put on the block with Felicia?

Still making dinner for them?!?! 

BB25: Live Feeds into Thursday - Nov. 2

 

Felicia vacuums while Jag eats a banana.

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

• Nothing much has changed since my last update.
• Cirie knows that Jag has promised both her and Felicia his vote.
• She feels she is likely to go.
• Cirie told Felicia if she makes it to the final two, she will give her her vote and rally the jury to do the same. 
• Both women packed their bags.
• Since Felicia has been packing every week for well over a month, hers was easier.
• Cirie pointed out to Matt that Jag wants her out because she's close to Matt and, inevitably, it's a sign that Jag will soon target Matt himself once he no longer has anyone in his corner.
• While she is certainly no comp beast, Cirie has played the social game to the hilt. She observes. She listens.
• I think it's time the comp beasts stopped ruling over BB. 
• This season was a delight in so many hamsters over 40. However, the comps didn't change -- many were still geared for 20-somethings.
• The twists this season could sink or swim ... oh, they sunk for sure.
• Jared. No, he was not an asset to Cirie in the game. He was pretty much the opposite.
• The horrible Zombie Week -- worst and most boring EVER in BB history.
• Even going ahead and holding eviction of another player the week Luke got the boot. Had Kirsten stayed, things might have been different -- at least you wouldn't have so many returning players!
• Oh, well.
• Tonight we should see Cirie go.
• Sigh.

Cirie packs her bag.

I'm not cooking for them!

Sure she will make final two.

Worried Jag will go to final two with Bowie Jane

BB25: Live Feeds into Wednesday - Nov. 1

 

Boo! They had pumpkins to carve.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of All Dressed Up and Nowhere to Go:

• In the morning, Felicia and Cirie made amends. They apologized to each other for throwing each other under various buses and everything.
• They hugged and vowed to be true friends forever.
• "Wait until you meet my son, he's just like Jared!"
• Heh.
• Much of the waking hours of the day were spent prepping for the big Halloween party planned by BB in the evening.
• That, of course, was blocked to the live feeds.
• They probably had music.
• BB left them all kinds of costumes and costume accessories in the storage room.
• Ony Cirie and Felicia really went to town with the costumes.
• Felicia's costume gave me Geraldine (Flip Wilson) vibes. If you're old enough, you will see it, too!
• Matt did put on a blond wig.
• Jag and Bowie had capes on. Jag couldn't wear a wig due to his turban. I don't know Bowie Jane's excuse.
• Jag did have a pig nose and fake glasses on at one point. I found that fitting.
• Matt had a clown nose and fake glasses on for a while.
• They carved pumpkins.
• I don't know if BB is pushing the Reilly/Matt thing what with the HOH photos and letter from her or what, but Matt carved a pumpkin with R 💘 M. Give me a break!
• When setting up the pumpkins in the HOH room for a camera shot, Jag only wanted their three pumpkins, not Felicia's or Cirie's in the shot. Grr.
• But, on the other hand, Jag wanted to split the beers they got five ways while Bowie Jane and Matt fussed about that.
• They got their way.
• After so much together time, Cirie and Felicia went downstairs to spend the rest of the evening together while the other three stayed in the HOH room talking about how great they are.
• The Operation Paranoia or Pressure Cracker plans seemed to be put on hold for the most part due to the Halloween festivities.
• But they plan to continue tomorrow.
• Bowie wants to tell Felicia she's going home so she will stop studying.
• I'm looking at some of the stuff Jag, Matt and Bowie are studying. Um. I think they're getting a bit too intricate and might miss the big picture if it is a memory comp.
• Laters. 👻

Mr. B left them costumes and accessories.

Why is Felicia giving me Geraldine vibes?

Cirie looks good in purple.

The Reilly/Matt one-week fauxmance?

Jag wore a cape, no wig.

BB25: Live Feeds into Tuesday - Oct. 31

 

That's right. Hide!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Is It Ever Going To End?:

• Nothing much has changed since yesterday's post.
• Matt and Jag joked about the "Pressure Cracker" or "Operation Paranoia" -- the plan to drive Felicia bonkers before the HOH so she will do poorly.
• Apparently, Mr. Comp Beast Jag can't go into the HOH comp with confidence that he will do well.
• Although it seems that Cirie deep down inside knows she will be leaving on Thursday, a part of her is clinging to the fact she might stay.
• She's looking forward to finale night and revealing the big Jared secret. "Hey, Felicia ... your favorite son is mine."
  
• Both Felicia and Cirie know that whichever one doesn't go this week is gone next.
• Of course, they both been told they're pawns.
• Cirie told Jag and Matt that Reilly had told her to trust them.
• Oh, boy ... how right was she?
• Not.
• Cirie also had kind words to Bowie.
• Jag saw right through it -- it's a ploy! It won't work with him!
• Felicia also confronted the group in the kitchen. She said she felt more like an outsider than she did before.
• Oh, no. Everything is okay. Wink-wink.
• They had the yard yesterday, maybe for the last time this season.
• Jag and Matt talked at length about how great the Minutemen alliance is and how they will be remembered in BB history.
• Well, mainly for other meanings of the name, but ...!
• They certainly are no hitmen. Unlike Cody taking Derrick to the end, Jag plans to cut Matt and go there against Bowie Jane.
• They divvied up Halloween candy.
• I would guess BB will do something for them today for Halloween.
• Laters!

It sounds like she's planning to keep the secret.

And Bowie Jane kept on smiling.

Close enough to slug him, Felicia!

Swimming is easier.

BB25: Live Feeds into Monday, Veto Meeting - Oct. 30

 

She who cried to stay off the block ...

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

• Okay, I'm irked.
• Particularly at Bowie Jane, but also at Jag. I'm just disappointed in Matt.
• Keep in mind, Bowie Jane CRIED to not be put on the block as a pawn.
• CRIED. Like real tears.
• So, what does she and Jag want to do?
• Well, their target to vote out this week is Cirie.
• According to Bowie Jane, Felicia is "acting too comfortable" and needs to be shaken up.
• They plan on basically gaslighting Felicia, keeping her awake and driving her crazy.
• And they're laughing at it.
• Matt is following right along with them.
• Jag is running Matt's HOH.
• Oh, but the three continue to let Felicia and Cirie cook for them.
• There is a mean-spiritedness that goes beyond what we usually see in the game.
• It's especially tough as they do have them cook for them, clean after them, refer to them as Mama C and Mama Fe.
• Is that the treatment they would want for their own mothers?
• Push them to the edge. Drive them crazy. Keep them awake. Then laugh about it.
• I know Jag is my blog pool random pick person.
• But I'm ready to disown him.
• He could have just continued to be good at winning comps without this meanness coming out. It's unnecessary.
• The feeds returned after a long block for the veto meeting.
• No one is talking about what happened.
• I'm sure Jag did not use the veto and Felicia/Cirie remain on the block.
• Both have been told they are not the target.
• Cirie is the target.

Matt the Follower

They are going to try to gaslight Felicia.

Not happy times.

Better off playing cards by themselves.
