I was waiting for the train at the Bridgewater (NJ) Train Station when I heard a commotion above me. I looked up and there were three birds dive-bombing straight at me! Yikes! They swooped back up about twenty feet above me after terrifying me for a moment. I started to watch them. The larger bird is a young (or small) hawk and the other two are crows. The crows are chasing the hawk and literally flying into him in what seems like an effort to knock him out of the air. I've never seen anything like it although hawks and crows are all over the skies here. I didn't get any good shots of the in-air collisions, but take my word ... they were happening. How it all turned out, I don't know. My train came into the station and I had to leave them.
This is what I get for checking out a widget on the CBS site. It's actually kind of nifty, but it just appeared smack dab there!
Joshuah talks to Chelsia, who's decided to go to bed early tonight.
Although we might have been expecting something ... wait for it ... legendary, tonight hasn't been a huge brouhaha in the house. Here are the happenings in the Big Brother House of Derisive Whisperings:
- They took HOH photos again. And, once again, Natalie loves the camera!
- Joshuah has decided that Sheila has two personalities. He calls the spicy one Kimberly.
- Sheila, forever playing both sides yet as transparent as Saran wrap, told Sharon if the votes flip, she voted for her to stay.
- Adam just compares Sheila to a roller coaster. Perhaps a roller coaster named the Kimberly Krasher?
- Chelsia thinks something happened in her life to make Natalie the way she is. (What excuse does Chelsia have?)
- Sheila now thinks Sharon will be going home. Or, at least she's saying that.
- Sheila thinks Ryan will betray them.
- Natalie thinks that Joshuah will vote to keep Chelsia.
- Boy, they're getting paranoid.
- Now even Ryan is worried that they'll vote to keep Chelsia and he'll be the odd vote.
- Natalie is pushing an anti-Josh agenda making everyone think he's going to betray Sharon.
- Natalie and Sheila mentioned in front of Sharon that they're trying to frame Joshuah and convince him to vote to keep Chelsia.
- I just don't understand their reasoning at all. I think they do want to keep Sharon, but what if this backfires?
- Surprise, surprise, Sheila doesn't think James should win the money because he'd just waste it. She needs it more. Natalie needs it more.
- Natalie says she'll get rid of James when she wins HOH tomorrow. @@
- Joshuah told Sharon the vote will be either 5-0 or 4-1 for her to stay tomorrow.
- He told her she cannot trust either Sheila or Natalie.
- Natalie and Sheila won't vote for James to win in the final two no matter who he's against (if he gets that far).
- Ryan and Adam are worried about what Sheila is up to.
- Ryan wants to go to bed early, the better to think about possible HOH questions for a comp.
The show has started here on the East Coast. This entry will be constantly updated as it airs. As always, comments are very welcome!
ARGh. Computer problems -- lost about all since before my save
Dick in the house.
Club evel in the backyard. James is hunting Adam down. DRink down special concoctions, play rock and roll croquest 10 drinks, three minutes. Each drink, a croquet shot. If winner can beat his 33 points from last season, the veto and classis Gibson Les Paul guitar and amp. If they can't beat him, he wins.
Sharon -- Chilis drink, Hangover cure, etc. Now Joshuah is up. Joshuah quits. Sheila got two down, three. For her son. Chelsia two drinks at once. Adam going for it. James up. He's determined.
Results -- Joshuah 5, Sharon and Chelsia 6, Dick told Chelsia she's pathetic. Sheila has 7 and James is upset.. She goes to the croquet, good shot, five points. She ends up with 23, leading so far. Adam drank 8. Adam knows James probably has ten shots. Chelsia thinks James will leave if the noms remain. Adam has beat Sheila ... has the veto, but James is up.
He must beat 28 for the veto, 33 for the guitar. Dick keeps telling him how much he needs the veto, his life in the house is on the line. He got 29 and won the veto, but Dick gets the guitar! Magical wizards keeping him in the house and he'll stay until he wins the game, he says. Chelsia feels royally screwed. Jpshuah and Sharon know one of them will go on the block.
Chelsia and James hug in the storage room. If one leaves, one has to go to the end. Chelssia is sad, but James loves her. James tells Joshuah and Sharon that he had to do it. Josh wants to make sure Sharon goes up and not him. He talks to Ryan who wants him around. Still an alliance going there. If Sharon goes up, Chelsia is guaranteed to go home. Joshuah knows that it could turn on him if he went up, but Sharon would easily stay. He knows Sharon loves Chelsia. He's blown away with her dedication and how darned good he is at the game. She buys it.
Sharon talks to Adam, taking one for the team. She tells him she's okay with it if he puts her on the block. Adam has that dazed look like he's hypnotized. He'll go for it. Sharon talks to Natalie and Joshuah, tells them. Natalie tells us she thinks Josh has something to do with it, he's sneaky.
God has to give me the power to get rid of him -- Natalie to Adam about James. She thinks he should put Josh up. Sharon does whatever Josh says. If they get rid of him, Sharon will come around. They tell Ryan. He points out that this is the time to get rid of Chelsia. Natalie thinks that Joshuah is more scary, Ryan says he wants to weaken James. Natalie says if Josh gets HOH, he'll nominate her.
James looking at the Memory Wll in anticipation of the veto -- he says he's already been evicted because of Chelsia once, won't be again. Chelsia knows that if Sharon goes up, that means Natalie, Ryan, and Adam want her out.
Chelsia speaks -- wants to stay in the game, realistically he beat her in the game, save himself. James will save himself and will stay in the house and play with vengeance. Adam says it's a hard decision. An option was best to keep his own risk level at a minumum, Sharon goes up. He thinks the repercussions will be at a mininum with Sharon on the block.
Sharon wants to end the game with Joshuah. Chelsia thinks James is laughing at her and she'll go home. Joshuah is saying he'll be the winner -- he even made Sharon go on the block for him.
Nah, this is a current screen cap from the house. I took it yesterday. It's dark and they're sleeping now.
Here's what happened in the Big Brother House of Horrible Houseguests since my last report:
- Natalie read the bible out loud to Sheila.
- James told Adam his speech (POV?) was stupid. He apparently said something about "to minimize risk" which doesn't ring bells with me on the nominations speech.
- James and Adam played chess.
- Ryan and James played chess.
- Sharon told Natalie she rarely drinks beer, doesn't like it. Natalie told her that she prefers pot to alcohol.
- Adam, James, Chelsia, Joshuah, and Ryan talked about Natalie's life. They think that something seems to be missing. (Maybe they'll decide that Sheila's her mother next!)
- There seems to be a 2-3 year gap in her stories to them.
- I'm glad they're not analyzing my life. There are some years in the past I rarely mention and remember little ... probably on purpose.
- Natalie says she won't embarrass herself like Chelsia on national television. God has tested her and she passed. @@
- Sheila thinks Joshuah's time in the house is just about up. On that side, she and Natalie only think Sharon is deserving of the win.
- In my opinion, whoever wins deserves to win. It won't mean I'll be happy with the winner, but that's the way it is. They all have to live with themselves afterward.
- They're sleeping like little angels, aw.
Doldrums in the BB9 house -- they definitely do too much in a few days and then pretty much nothing from Sunday until Wednesday this season. I hope the upcoming summer show goes back to a Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday schedule.
Here's the latest scoop from that Big Brother House of Mixed Nuts:
- Natalie told Sharon it takes her more than 30 days to fall in love. She's said that before, too. Then she usually goes back to talking about her Mattie. Go figure.
- The girls talked about their MySpace pages.
- Sharon told Sheila that Natalie is after Joshuah. Sheila said that she will do whatever she wants to do.
- Sheila thinks Adam would have put her on the block if they didn't need the numbers to evict Chelsia.
- Sheila thinks that they want her out of the house because no one wants to be in the final two with her. She'd win against anyone, y'know. (Actually, she might, not that I want her to win. Come to think of it, I don't think I want any of this group to win. A double eviction at the end and no one wins I say!)
- Natalie and Sheila had a gabfest. Natalie is taken with her Mattie!
- Natalie told Sheila that James apologized to her and hinted that she might be working with him. (Oh, fine. Telling Sheila something is like broadcasting it with a megaphone. Oh, I miss the Megaphone Lady, Miss Kitty!)
- James thinks if he was on the block, Chelsia would have a better chance to stay. Well, duh!
- Chelsia told Joshuah that her mother is probably flipping out over her rants. (No, she isn't. I'm sure she's changed her name, moved, and written Chelsia out of the will by now. No flipping out needed!)
- The guys shaved. Ryan even had his arms shaved.
- Natalie once again mentioned that her period is late.
- Sheila complained that she didn't get someone hot like the other women did in the soulmate thing. Well, someone had to have Adam!
My latest live feeds report is up over on TV Squad. I'll be reporting here later tonight. But they have to do more!
Chelsia in a quiet moment yesterday.
Here's what's been happening in that Big Brother Ship of Fools since the veto meeting:
- The HG got their sugar fixes by eating the Easter candy.
- Chelsia asked if they could eat the eggs they dye. They don't think so. @@
- Joshuah and James hid some of the beer they got in the storage room.
- BB gave them beer and wine.
- They had fun with decorating eggs.
- An indoor lockdown was forced as one of the outdoor cameras fell to the ground and had to be fixed.
- Natalie and Sheila say they hate peeps. Well, maybe peeps hate them on back!
- Lots of sex talk once again. Oh, gee. Natalie said she can't bring herself to a climax. If I have to know, so do you.
- Chelsia once again talked about how she would have sex with Matt in sequester -- this time until his crooked eye goes straight.
- Sheila cried because Matt wasn't there to defend himself. @@
- Joshuah asked if Matt was her son (Sheila's) -- she cried more and said he isn't.
- Natalie can't understand why Chelsia keeps attacking her. Yet Natalie keeps making remarks about her leaving.
- Natalie claims that Chelsia would be evicted immediately if she brought up the abortions again.
- Joshuah hopes the latest Chelsia acting out brouhaha doesn't go on the air for the show.
- Joshuah told Natalie that Chelsia was in the wrong. Whether he thinks it or is just working Natalie, your guess.
- Natalie told Joshuah and Sheila she was picked on all the time when she was a child.
- Back to the finger incident between Matt and Chelsia. Natalie still says it didn't happen.
- Natalie thinks she's the sole survivor of the Sexy Six in the house.
- Joshuah told Ryan he thinks Matt is Sheila's son and that's why she's so upset.
- Chelsia napped after her tirade at Natalie.
- Sharon told James that she thinks Matt is Sheila's nephew or son.
- Sheila told Chelsia the only reason she's after Natalie is because Natalie has annoyed her since the first day. Well, yeah.
- Joshuah told James that Sheila said Matt was "family."
- Sheila denied Matt was her son and said there is just too much going on in the house that she can't talk about.
- Joshuah told Sheila that Chelsia is crazy and won't let things rest.
- James and Chelsia talked about the times they've had sex in the house.
- James said he got into trouble for hiding beer for Chelsia.
- As I post this, James and Chelsia are still awake on their fold-out couch, but the rest are all asleep.
The show has started here on the East Coast after being delayed by March Madness basketball (grr). This entry will be constantly updated as it airs. As always, comments are very welcome!
For a change, we're starting the show with a recap of the last show! What a novel idea! Matt just got evicted and Adam is the new HOH! And now we see it all again in black and white after the show theme. Matt is evicted once again! And Natalie is sad.
James tells us that it's their own stupidity they brought him back. He's happy he got Matt out of the house.
It's Day 42 and Natalie is crying as her beloved Mattie's photo goes black and white. Sharon thinks Nat feels she's lost the game and her "soulmate." Adam feels pigeonholed into an alliance with Sheila and Ryan.
Oh, now Adam won HOH again! Adam really doesn't want it -- he doesn't want to make decisions. Sheila says "we'll" seek vengeance like she won. Natalie is acting like she won. Chelsia wanted the HOH bad and thinks it will be a tough week. James thinks everyone's fair game with Adam.
Natalie immediately goes to Adam, so does Sheila. He's their hero. Poor Adam. He tells Joshuah he didn't want to win. He thinks people are both nervous and fake around him. He doesn't care that Sheila is proud of him.
Then it's Ryan's play for him. Ryan plays the Boys Club card. Adam just looks buggy-eyed.
Natalie is still upset about losing her Mattie. Joshuah thinks Natalie is already like a lost puppy and he's glad to see them separated. Sheila comforts her, tells her it will be fine. Natalie tells us in a DR session she will be strong. She tells the others that she's had to be strong her whole life.
Natalie seems to have had some issues with people getting close and leaving her in the past. Of course, she doesn't quite get that Matt doesn't think of her like she thinks of him.
Natalie tells Chelsia she already knows what will happen this week -- someone from her side (Chelsia) will be going home. Now she's determined in the DR sessions. Ryan tells her that Adam is easily swayed by people and she has to work on him. She tells us she already has Adam's HOH reign planned and it will be war against the other side.
Sharon is calling the guinea pigs "beebies" -- babies. Joshuah mocks her in the DR room, then shoots himself with his figure. Joshuah thinks they don't understand her, all they want is food. Sharon loves them. They're her fur-iends.
Time for Ada's HOH room. Wow, in one photo he loks good. He was a cute kid. Aw, doggies. He has baby food. He tells us he likes it, but is totally embarrassed. (I actually like the banana stuff myself, though haven't had any in years). Natalie wants some baby food.
Joshuah and Sheila talk in the bathroom. She asks who will go up, he tells her that he (Josh) and her just to freak her out. Now her stomach is hurting her.
They do a gay Josh and Straight Adam bit. Joshuah tells him that he's his bitch and made a deal. He told him he'd help him out, not put him up and what he told Sheila. They go in to see Sheila. Adam plays along. Sheila is stunned. Joshuah is just about laughing. He tells us it would be a good move for him to put her on the block.
America can get involved in this week's HOH comp -- details at cbs.com.
Adam calls for all to gather in the living room for a very special luxury comp. It's for the new movie 21. We see the preview the HG saw. They're thrilled. Sheila is the biggest movie buff ever, of course. The backyard is done up like Las Vegas with all kinds of gambling. The game of blackjack is beatable if you know how to count cards. The cards have the HG face and number. Be the first to ring in at 21. If right, you get a chip. Wrong, out of game. First to four chips wins and invites three others to see the movie.
Ryan gets the first chip. James is the first one out. Adam won a chip. Sheila is out not to any surprise of Joshuah. Ryan has a second chip. Joshuah is out. Natalie has a chip. Ryan has his third chip. Ryan has his fourht chip. He won the comp. He chooses Adam, Natalie, and James. Sheila is upset.
Are you a gambling man? VIP trip for two to Las Vegas and $5,000 to spend. He has to risk losing the movie passes, they will go to other group of houseguests he didn't invite. He would have to win a game of blackjack.
Ryan risks it all for the 21 grand prize package. Ryan stays at 18, dealer 19 and Ryan lost. Now Sheila can see her movie. Ryan is happy for the other group -- Joshuah, Sharon, Chelsia and Sheila get to see the movie.
Natalie is praying to God and telling us how she reads the bible for strength. She tells Sheila that she was looking for signs. Eight curtains. Eight vases, eight ducks, eight sayings. She's found seven groups of eight. She neds one more. She will keep counting. She looks at the der head and says okay. Huh?
The table shrunk. It's that time of the season! Natalie is now thinking it has more to do with eight -- eight letters for Evel Dick, maybe he's coming back. She's sure there's some relevance.
She works on Adam for a Chelsia/James ticket for the block. Adam wants to nominate Sheila to show they're not working together. Natalie tells him Sheila is no threat. He's worried they'll come after him, she keeps talking numbers and he needs to get rid of the stronger players. She doesn't want him to put up someone from their side.
They showed a promo asking for applicants for BB10, epected to start in July.
Nominations today. James tells us that he'll go after him if he puts him on the block. Sheila is worried. Joshuah thinks Adam will stay true to their deal. Adam thinks he's made up his mind already and it's time for nominations.
Adam gives the shpiel, no one has done him wrong, and he feels what he did is not so bad. Key order: Natalie, Sharon, Ryan, Joshuah, Sheila. She looked like she was going to cry. He told her not to thank him.
He nominated both Chelsia and James because he didn't want to backdoor. He thinks they can play to keep themselves in the game. Natalie tells us in the DR that that's what they get for messing with her. Adam thinks Matt will be happy. Chelsia tells us that Adam will not be safe next week. James tells us that it will come back to bite him in the butt if he gets off the block.
At the time I'm posting this, basketball just ended. CBS will air 60 Minutes, then tonight's BB9. When the show starts, I'll start blogging about it.Grr.
My latest live feeds report is up over on TV Squad -- it includes an image gallery of Easter in the Big Brother house, a first for the show.
I'll be live blogging tonight's show here, then later posting a full review/recap of it over on TVS. Please stop back!
I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday!
I want to take a moment to wish everyone a happy Easter (if you celebrate the day) and a great Sunday! I appreciate the contributions of so many folks on this blog and know countless others are reading. Zoetawny was kind enough to make me a colorful Easter graphic, too!
May we all have chocolate! :-)
I have a more thorough post awaiting posting over on TV Squad, but I'm not sure when it will go up. So, I figured I'd touch base here in the meantime. Today was fairly quiet in the house with a bit of action picking up towards the evening.
Here be da skinny:
- Natalie and James talked ... a lot. Supposedly they won't target each other.
- Chelsia is still likely to be evicted this week, but she won $21,000 today, so it won't hurt as much.
- How'd she win it? Well, the luxury comp movie was today -- it was 21 -- the card-counting gambling movie. Somehow, she won.
- Ryan and Adam are very worried that Natalie and James talked for so long.
There's your big news for the moment!
I made a comment that Sheila reminded me of Mrs. Gulch, the pre-witch from The Wizard of Oz. Sure enough, graphic artist Zoetawny got an idea! I dunno. I can hear Sheila in my mind saying "I'll get you and your little doggie, too" as her foes are evicted. Can't you?
Here's what's been going on inside that Big Brother House of Flying Monkeys:
- Natalie and Sheila think they will be the final two women.
- Sheila thinks she might beat Amber's crying reputation.
- Sheila and Natalie spent an exorbitant amount of time talking about how horrible Chelsia is.
- While they were doing that, Chelsia and Ryan were trashing Sheila elsewhere.
- Sheila told Natalie that Evel Dick hinted that people "out there" really liked her. Say what?
- Natalie is sure that Chelsia is jealous of the relationship she has with her Mattie. (Cough)
- Sharon says that Ryan wants Sheila out, but Adam won't put her on the block.
- It's very likely that Sharon will be put on the block in place of James, ensuring that Chelsia will be voted out.
- Joshuah told Sharon that he needs James in the house because he's a bigger target, thus he (Joshuah) is more protected.
- In talking about how different it is to be in the house than to just watch the show, Joshuah said the DR really drags out things from them -- "Just give me a teleprompter and tell me what you want me to say."
- The DR told Ryan that his grandfather died. He's not planning to leave the house. The grandfather was 90 years old and Ryan only told Sheila because he thought she would be understanding. Sheila started telling her own grandparent stories.
- Sheila asked Ryan if the rumor about Natalie giving oral sex to Matt was true. He said it is.
- Adam told Natalie that James offered him three weeks of safety if he puts her on the block.
- Natalie said James is stupid if he thinks Adam will put her on the block.
- Natalie told Adam that she didn't play for POV this week because God wants her to win HOH this week. @@
- Natalie thinks they should keep Chelsia this week and backdoor Joshuah. (Maybe Chelsia's threats to sleep with Matt are working?) She is on a new campaign streak about getting Joshuah out. There haven't been any new issues between her and Josh, so I can only think Chelsia going into sequester alone with her Mattie is behind the latest.
- Ryan and James talked about Chelsia and Matt both gone (not yet!) and how they shouldn't stop the grudges.
- Natalie, Ryan, and Adam think they have to keep Sheila around for her vote.
- Adam told Joshuah that Natalie wants him on the block because she thinks he's working with James. (And Chelsia isn't closer? Hmmm ... Natalie, your insecurities are showing!)
- Chelsia cried to James because she isn't ready to leave. She would need a miracle to stay.
- Oh, my ... maybe God will help Natalie and Chelsia! Natalie is pushing Adam and Ryan hard for Joshuah to go on the block and be backdoored.
- James wants to do The Amazing Race with Chelsia. She said she'd love that.
- Ryan and Adam think they should go with Adam putting Sharon on the block and evicting Chelsia.
- Joshuah is concerned that he might be put on the block.
- Joshuah tried to convince Adam that putting Natalie on the block is definitely an option.
- James told Joshuah that Sheila told him she wanted to go to the final two with him (James).
- Sheila cried.
- Adam is sure that he's a target of James. Joshuah told him that James is after Natalie.
- Chelsia and Natalie had another brouhaha. Same old, same old. This time it was Chelsia yelling about abortions instead of Joshuah. That was inspired by Natalie telling her she couldn't pray to save herself.
- Adam told Natalie she shouldn't be confronting Chelsia. Chelsia is upset enough that she'll probably be going home without Natalie giving her more problems.
- The DR apparently spoke to Chelsia regarding talking about Natalie's abortions. (Maybe Natalie shouldn't have ever mentioned them in the first place? That was stupid on her part although I agree it's not something to be used as ammunition in a personal spat.)
- Chelsia then went to Natalie and asked if she could pray with her. Natalie said not if she was just mocking her.
- The fight goes on.
- Natalie thinks Chelsia is not only jealous of her and Mattie, but because she has better breasts. @@
- Bad words, fight, snarl, gnash, hiss, bible thump, abortions. It's a verbal cat fight! Meow.
- Sheila is disgusted because Natalie is still lying about the oral sex with Matt.
- Meow!
- "God loves me," says Natalie.
- Chelsia told Natalie that Matt fingered her in the storage room. "What?: says James. Meow. Hiss.
- Sheila got mad at Adam for not protecting Natalie. @@
- Chelsia hid a bunch of Natalie's things, then put them back after Joshuah told her he got into trouble for hiding other peoples' things.
- Chelsia told Adam he's evicting the wrong person.
- Chelsia told the others the camera will tell whether Natalie did the oral sex on Matt. (Yes, it did.)
- Chelsia thinks that Natalie is very pretty, but starved for attention ... thus the way she acted about Matt.
- Adam and Chelsia think that Natalie is the stereotype of what could be an abused woman.
- Natalie said she'd rather leave now and be with Matt in sequester.
- Sheila tried to convince her she needs to stay.
- Natalie is mad at Adam for making her leave the HOH room earlier in the evening. (I don't blame him at all.)
- Chelsia told Joshuah that the DR room told her she was being immature.
- James and Chelsia smooched and made out under the covers.
- The camera switched to Natalie sleeping just when the action started with James and Chelsia.
- All are in bed now, Chelsia roamed the house a bit looking at the Memory Wall.
Rats, I had to miss it for work and the feeds didn't show the Evel Dick appearance anyway! My latest live feeds post is up over at TV Squad and I'll have more here a bit later tonight.
At the moment, they're sunning and James will live to see another week.
I think we have a most unpleasant week ahead. I predict that Sheila won't stay quiet a moment and Natalie will keep thanking God for helping her. No matter if you like the ones on the block or not, Sheila and Natalie are unbearable both upset and vindicated. Chelsia and James, when cornered, aren't fun either.
Here's what's happened through the overnight hours:
- Chelsia claims she told the producers she'll do sexual favors to stay in the house.
- Sheila and Natalie think Joshuah will save James if he wins POV.
- Chelsia thinks Sheila must look like a hag on television.
- Sheila and Natalie talked about how boring Sharon is.
- In talking to God, Natalie said that Matt was "executed" out of the house because "he is the best looking and has the biggest muscles."
- Natalie told the others her job as a cheerleader is to look pretty. (Mind you, she's not a cheerleader.)
- Natalie told Sheila her period is late. (Uh-oh!)
- They all thought the POV comp would be held at midnight. It wasn't.
- They all gave up and went to bed.
Alas, if that wake-up from Dick happens early this morning their time, I'll be at work.
Sharon, Ryan, and Joshuah discuss the upcoming POV comp.
Here's what's been going in inside that Big Brother House of Vengeful Vixens and the Men Who Do Their Bidding:
- As I previously mentioned, Adam nominated James and Chelsia.
- Both Sheila and Natalie are thrilled. Natalie has been going around taunting James.
- Sheila has been talking nonstop. Nothing new there.
- Chelsia thinks Adam just caved into Sheila and Natalie.
- Natalie told Joshuah it's James this week, Chelsia next.
- James and Chelsia decided to create a stir this week while both are on the block.
- Chelsia said (jokingly) that if she goes to the sequester house, she'll have sex with Matt.
- Ryan told James that Natalie will vote for Chelsia to go.
- Chelsia offered oral sex to Sharon for a vote. I believe she was kidding, but Sharon said no anyway.
- Ryan and Adam plan to get rid of people in this order: James, Chelsia,Joshuah, Sharon, and Sheila in there if needed. (Um, guys! Natalie ... she needs to be on this list!)
- The HG were they would be picking POV players tonight.
- Sheila told Natalie that she has to tell Adam that Joshuah is the target if one is removed from the block. (This is her latest tactic -- she has Natalie tell him, then she spends hours telling him it over and over again.)
- Sheila told Ryan that James said one of them would get off the block.
- Sheila told Sharon that she doesn't have to worry about going up on the block if the veto is used. (Aren't you happy Sheila has usurped the HOH?)
- Joshuah told Chelsia that if Sharon went on the block against James, he would vote her out.
- Lots of talk too raunchy for here, use your imagination.
Although I won't be writing this episode up in its entirety, I will post the big news here as it airs here on the east coast.
Your comments and discussion, as always, are welcome! The final four go down to the final two tonight. Each candidate will be interviewed by financial publication bigwigs to explain why they should be the winner.
Lennox is fired. He was too laidback for the interviewers. Carol is fired only because Trump wants to see Piers and Trace battle it out.
Piers and Trace each have to put on an event. Both have issues -- Trace with the Backstreet Boys, Piers with Stephen Baldwin.
The finale is next week.
My latest feeds post is up on TV Squad, but the nominations are in. Adam put Chelsia and James on the block.
Natalie and Sheila are being incredibly annoying ... more so than usual.
Hmmm ... not sure I'd want him to be MY head of house. One thing about Adam, though, he has his friends on both sides of the fence. It will be an interesting reign.
Here's what's been happening in the Big Brother House of Baller Rules:
- The crew agreed that Alex had been voted back because America wanted to see how he would do without Amanda.
- Ryan and Natalie worked on Adam in the HOH room while everyone else was downstairs. Natalie is on an anti-James mission.
- Natalie thinks if Adam puts up both Sharon and Chelsia, James will win POV and take one down. She wants him to put up one girl (Chelsia preferably) and Joshuah. Or, better yet, put up both Joshuah and James and one would definitely go home even if POV was used.
- Joshuah told James and Sharon that it was his time to go on the block -- he'd rather go up than them. (But he didn't say he wants to go home!)
- Sheila wanted some of Adam's HOH beer. He wouldn't share.
- Joshuah and Ryan talked privately. Joshuah wants Sheila on the block. Ryan told him he has to try to make a deal with Adam.
- Ryan told Adam that Sheila lied to his face all week.
- Natalie kept telling Adam they have the numbers to get one of "them" out this week.
- Joshuah told Ryan that he thinks Adam will backdoor him.
- Joshuah talked to Adam who told him he's thinking of putting James and Chelsia up, but asked him not to tell them.
- Joshuah made a secret alliance deal with Adam similar to the one he has with Ryan.
- After campaigning for him to put James and Chelsia up, Joshuah told James that Adam never mentioned him.
- Natalie smugly told James that she has an idea of how this week will go. He'll need her vote and won't have it.
- The HG were told a mystery event was ahead.
- It's a midnight (3 AM here) luxury comp!
- Joshuah and Sheila won a movie night.
- They talked about the original "dirty little secrets" theme for the show. Apparently they were told that in the interview process. Chelsia's mother was upset with the theme. (Probably ain't too happy now either.)
- They tried to figure out each other's secrets.
- They're now all settled in for the night as I get this posted.
James, Chelsia, Sheila, and Joshuah talk amicably in the house. I'm sure that won't last long.
My Survivor review post is up over at TV Squad.
But I'm sure you're wondering how things are in the Big Brother House of In My Pants HOH!
- They were all surprised that Parker almost returned to the house. Many were grateful that Allison didn't come back.
- James was very quiet. He said what he had to do tonight was very hard.
- James told Adam to have fun with the HOH, lots of it is fun like the room, the gifts, the talk with Julie Chen.
- Adam asked for James' help with handling the HOH. (Remember, they've made a pact to never vote each other out.)
- Adam is still in shock about winning the HOH comp. He told Joshuah he didn't expect nor want to win.
- Adam and Ryan talked about still sticking to the plan. Hmmm...
- Natalie thinks she helped Adam win by putting Sharon and Chelsia against each other in the HOH comp.
- Sheila told Natalie "those people are evil, all of them."
- Natalie told Chelsia that she and James lied. "Our side knows who to target." But does she have a real side anymore?
- Natalie is sure that Adam is on board with her. But I think Adam also is on with James and Chelsia ... and Ryan.
- Ryan thinks that Adam will have Sheila's back.
- Chelsia told Natalie that she really did want to save Matt.
- Joshuah called a truce with Sheila. I give that perhaps through the evening.
- Joshuah said Adam plans to interview everyone in the house asking them why they should not be nominated, not who should be nominated.
- In his goodies for the HOH room Adam got a letter from home (normal) and baby food. Okay. I used to have an urge for strained bananas, but then I grew up.
- Joshuah thinks it will be himself and Chelsia on the block. He says he's fine with that.
We've had trivia for a while now blocking the feeds. I know the HG were expecting food delivered. Maybe BB is giving them a mini-vacation from the cameras as they eat.
Amanda Overmyer leaves the show tonight. Kristy Lee Cook and Carly were in the bottom three with her.
The show has started here on the East Coast. This entry will be constantly updated as it airs. As always, comments are very welcome!
Recap, recap and now Julie Chen is here wearing a simple black dress and high boots again. She's taking advantage of boot season this year! It must be all the snow in southern CA.
She tells us Matt is reduced to tears and is at the mercy of the house. Once again (second time in five minutes) we see Matt put on the block. Now back to James' promise. Matt is just sulking after the POV meeting. James once again says it's becasue Matt lied about being the third mystery vote. Natalie is crying. She thinks she did all that hanging on the disco ball for nothing.
Matt and James talk. James tells him that he's up because he's playing with Natalie. Bugs flying around them, Matt cries real tears. Ryan is Mr. Nice Guy according to Matt. Matt cries that he wants to give his mother a gift, then goes to cry to Natalie.
He wnts to be by himself and rues his crying in the Diary Room. Joshuah tells Ryan that he has his vote and probably Adam's too. Sheila tells Ryan she will keep him here -- "When I make a decision, it's a decision." We'll see.
Matt moans to Adam it will go 5-1 or 4-2 if he votes for him. Adam pep talked him to campaign for himself pointing out that he did nothing wrong. Should he play the sympathy card?
He works on Chelsia ... doesn't want to spend his birthday in sequester, never spent a birthday alone. He pulls the same on Sharon. No one falls for it as they tell us in DR segments, but they don't commit anything to him. He tells Sheila he has Adam's vote, pulls the birthday card. He's not understanding why no one will commit. (Maybe because they don't want to vote for him to stay.)
I think they all want him out because of the stupid clamdigger rolled-up pants he always wears. Matt keeps campaigning -- Ryan has crossed them, put James on the block, took money from Sheila, put Sheila and Chelsia on the block. Now Sheila might cahnge her mind. Matt begs while saying he doesn't want to beg.
Sheila goes to work on James. She pressures him to vote to keep Matt in the case of a tie. She points out that Matt has done nothing to any of them while Ryan has. James is nodding and agreeing, but isn't committing to save Matt. He knows that Sheila is manipulative. He just looks like he wants her to go far away.
James told us he wants them both gone and doesn't know. Evel dick will appear.
In DR sessions, Joshuah talks about trusting Ryan and how he should stay. Adam trusts Matt but Ryan's been his friend. Natalie trusts Matt and says he has to stay.
Julie checks in with everyone, mentions that James siad his word is all he has in the house. James said that Matt and Ryan earned it while Sheila didn't. Natalie said his word is nothing and he's a backstabbing hypocrite. She talks to them about the Bible Buddies and they're delighted.
Now she will show them who's in the Mystery Box and they find out it would have been Alex. four would have voted knowing it was Alex. Natalie and the previous three.
Dick and Daniele segment, six months on. They're still friendly. Dick is going to go meet Barry Manilow, a fan of BB. Who woulda thunk it? He took Daniele to Europe and she says their relationship is good right now. He also bought her a car. He thinks they wouldn't be talking if not for BB. Nick and Daniele are no longer dating, just not compatible. They both like that James is actually playing the game this season. They talk about Sheila and Natalie talking too much. Dick will return to the house next week to host a comp.
In DR, Chelsia wants Matt out. Sharon wants Ryan to stay in the house. Sheila doesn't want to vote for either one. She wants James to decide.
Talking to the nominees. Ryan says he's in a familiar position and running out of fresh material, wants to right what he's done wrong in the house, continue to play. Matt humbled and in on a crime last week, rectify what he's done, Ryan's a great man, tough choice.
Voting will begin, James will break a tie if needed.
The voting goes:
Chelsia votes to evict Mattie.
Joshuah is glad to evict Matt.
Sharon votes to evict Matt.
Natalie votes to Ryan.
Adam votes to evict Ryan.
Sheila votes to evict Ryan.
We have a tie. And, we're into commercial.
Julie tells the HG the votes are in, sound is cutting here. It's up to James to reveal his choice. He's putting on a worried look. He casts his vote to evict Matt. Matt tears up. Hugs, hugs. James gets a brief handshake instead of a hug. Natalie is crying, Ryan comforts her.
Matt is just about Julie Chen's height! Everyone is consoling Natalie. She rebuffs Chelsia's hug.
Matt admits being devastated and restates his position that he was wrongly confused. James is his "axe"nemesis in the house. True feelings toward Natalie, great friend rest of life, not the girl for him. Goodbye messages -- James talks about his attitude coming off crappy, Sheila said relationship with Nat ruined him, Ryan tightest bond, Natalie still thinks he might be her soulmate, (matt looks embarrassed). First member of the jury Julie tells him. "The dream's over."
Not too much time left for the HOH. Julie didn't even talk to James in HOH tonight -- probably because she thought he was offensive the last time and he put "crap" in his googby messge to Matt again this time.
HOH -- They have to answer questions about what others have said in the DR. No secrets will be given away. Joshuah and Chelsia will face off first. Evicted HG are the only answers. Chelsia wins the round. She chooses Natalie and Sheila to face off. Sheila is out. Natalie chooses Chelsia and Sharon to face off. Sharon eliminated. She chooses Adam and Natalie to face off. Natalie is eliminated. Adam chooses Ryan and Chelsia to face off. Ryan eliminated. It's between Adam and Chelsia.
ADAM is the new HOH. Amazing.
I was wrong -- Dick won't be hosting a comp, he'll be doing a wake-up call.
The show has started here on the east coast. I'll update this post as important events (immunity, boot, and such) happen.
My full show review will be posted over at TV Squad later tonight.
As always, comments are a joy! :-)
Malakal won reward, sending Jason to Exile Island. Tracy goes for Malakal, sacrificing a product laden spa day.
Krazy Kathy just quit the game -- too much stress on her.
Airai wins immunity. Gack.
Phew ... Ozzy didn't play the idol, but is safe again. Tracy was voted out. Only Tracy voted for Ozzy. For all her talk, Cirie targeted a fan.
My latest BB9 live feeds report is up over on TV Squad.
At 8 PM ET tonight, I'll put up an East Coast Updates post for Survivor. My full review of that show will be posted to TV Squad tonight -- most likely late because ...
... I'll be live blogging the live eviction show of Big Brother 9 as it airs here on the East Coast starting at 9 PM ET/PT.
Oh ... and I'll be recording American Idol and will get the boot up there somehow, too.
I will NOT be live blogging March Madness tomorrow night.
Dancing With the Stars has returned! It airs on ABC affiliates every Monday at 8 PM ET/PT with the results shows on Tuesdays at 9 PM ET/PT.
The official website for the show is located here.
I'm still not watching (forgive me!), but this post is a friendly place for all of the blog readers who do love the show to discuss it in the comment area. The previous discussion post for the show was here and will remain listed in the sidebar.
May it be a good season!
Graphic artist Zoetawny has it right -- they're ALL a bunch of clowns in the Big Brother 9 house!
Tonight's show will be delayed by an hour following Survivor. Don't forget! At least they didn't delay Survivor to some obscure hour in the middle of the night for March Madness.
It's a rainy day here and it's my day off, as well. I'm thinking, if y'all want, of putting up new DWTS and Bachelor discussion posts for the new seasons. Both shows sneaked up on me. Let me know!
What's been happening in the Big Brother House of Spies, Snakes, and Two Innocent Guinea Pigs?
- Sheila told Ryan he shouldn't trust Adam. (With all her wanting Adam to have her back, why does she bring him up at all?)
- Natalie told Chelsia that if they keep Matt, they (C&J) will be double-protected next week -- she and her Mattie. (I'm sure Matt would protect James as well as James protected Matt leading into this.)
- Matt told Sheila he hopes she will keep her (earlier) promise to him. She told him she'll do what she thinks is right for her.
- Sheila grilled Chelsia on why she'd vote Ryan out and what's up between her and James (the spy stuff with the fake breakup).
- Chelsia told Sheila she now thinks voting James back in wasn't her best move for her own game in the house.
- Sheila says Joshuah never attacked her because he's scared of her. @@
- Sheila told Chelsia that Joshuah is out of control. (Of course, Joshuah is totally in with Chelsia and James, as is Sharon.)
- At this point Chelsia can say anything about her three partners for the good of the espionage game. So, anything said by her has to be taken with that in consideration.
- Sheila complained about James calling her a shebot. She says his word is poo in the house.
- As Sheila bashed Josh to Chelsia then Natalie, another bash was going on. Adam, Joshuah, and James were bashing Sheila. Oh, the love in the house!
- Adam told them that he hasn't promised his vote to either.
- Adam also told them that Sheila thinks one of them made fun of her son. They said no one has made any comments about him. (They surely have enough ammunition just with Sheila!)
- James said that he mentioned in his HOH blog that he feels sorry for him, that's all.
- Adam told them that he's a free player, not a partner of Sheila.
- James pointed out that the best buds (Ryan and Matt) have been throwing each other under the bus for votes.
- Chelsia told Sheila that if she (Sheila) is on the block next week and hooks up with Adam, she'll vote for her to stay. EWWW and @@
- James and Adam guaranteed each other that to the end, they will be automatic votes for each other to stay (or win).
- Sheila kept going on her anti-Joshuah rant. He hasn't been HOH (neither has she), never been on the block, and how proud his mother must be of him, etc., etc.
- Joshuah claims he will make two girls cry Wednesday and his mom will be proud of him.
- Natalie thinks America hates Joshuah, but Adam thinks he's liked because Josh is always so long in the Diary Room.
- Natalie and Sheila think the show shrink should come to calm Joshuah down. (Heck, the shrink would have his hands full with Natalie and Sheila, too!)
- Matt told Joshuah he wanted a peaceful night because it could be his last night in the house. Joshuah said he was joking, only working the girls up.
- Natalie now trusts Chelsia, thinks she doesn't lie to her. Heh.
- Natalie thinks Joshuah is mad because he caught wind of Matt staying this week.
- Joshuah says that he's going to tell Sheila and Natalie to decide which is more important -- winning the HOH or him ripping apart their son/mother on live television. (I doubt he would do the latter -- I believe he's just talk, but we'll see tonight.)
- Matt thinks he's the King of Insults and that's why he was put on the show.
- Matt told Natalie and Sheila that he's sure Joshuah won't go off on them during the live show.
- Joshuah deliberately got Sheila going again (well, still going) by telling her to say hello to her son and leaving.
- Sharon told Joshuah to calm down and stop instigating Sheila and Natalie. It's too much.
- James thinks if he goes on the block with Joshuah next week, he (James) would be voted out.
- Sheila thanked James for taking her off the block. He told her it was gameplay, she shouldn't read too much into it.
- Joshuah thinks that Evel Dick wore down the competition before the final HOH and he will wear them down too.
- Sharon, Ryan, and Joshuah think Matt believes he's staying because he stopped moping around.
- Joshuah went from talking and taunting to staring down Sheila. She, of course, doesn't notice. If he speaks, she reacts.
- Joshuah claims he's not like this outside of the house -- he's actually quite nice to people. (Sure, blame the house!)
- Natalie told Adam that the votes for Matt to stay will be either 6-0 or 5-1. Suuure.
- Shades of Amber revisited, Natalie prayed to God for the good people to stay. @@
- Sheila thinks that BB won't air the really nasty things Joshuah says about her on TV. (BB is not airing a lot this season. I think this is the biggest chop job I've ever seen on a season after watching the feeds all the years.)
- Ryan thinks he's going to get more air time because he keeps picking his nose. (Now, there's good TV, right?)
- Matt is worried because James hasn't committed to him about breaking a tie in his favor.
- In case he goes, Matt gave Natalie the advice to work with James, target Joshuah, and Adam is always on the fence.
- James shaved his pubic hair and made it into a mustache. Eww.
They're all still asleep as I get this posted.
The show has started here on the East Coast. As it airs, this post will be constantly updated, so please refresh the page for the latest. As I'm typing it while watching TV, there will most likely be a typoo or two. Please forgive me!
As always, your comments make it all worthwhile!
Recaps, of course. In black and white as she gets nominated, Sheila is reminding me of Mrs. Gulch -- the Wicked Withc of the West. Boy these hugs they give each other look SO fake! Matt is appreciative and tells us that he can't ever evict her and if it's down to him and her, he hopes she wins. Yikes, I may have to rethink my Mattie Boy!
Sheila is upset that she was put on the block for lying to James. Lying surely is a part of teh game, but getting caught bites your butt.
Ack, the Bible Buddies are back. This is the stuff I turn to a different feed when it's on the feeds. "What's the Holy Grial?" asks Matt. Go watch some Monty Python, Matt!
Sheila apologizes to Adam for her early game behavior ... sucking up in case she's needing a vote. He's actually nice to her, but he still creeps me out. Thankfully she doesn't call him normal. He's not.
They look so cold wrapped up and shivering in the yard. How cold is it in outhern CA lately? Joshuah is still concerned about the third mystery vote not to return him to the house. He thinks it's Matt or Ryan. Natalie is trying to convince people that Adam was the third vote and we know he wasn't. Sharon can tell she's lying. Good.
In the guinea pig cage, there are blocks which say POV. Sheila is thinking she might not have the votes she thought she had because people are telling her to win POV. She cries while wearing her red unitard. (Which has been off since Friday in real life.)
Now they're all talking about Sheila's ranting. Looped, Looney Toons, and more. It's time to prank Sheila, wake her up and tell her the POV is on! This was funny on the feeds! She's dazed, she's confused, she takes it well with them but was so ticked later.
Time to pick players for the veto comp -- James picks Matt, Sheila picks Chelsia, Ryan picks Joshuah. Matt thinks it's no big deal. James makes Natalie a happy person by making her host. She always whines that she never is in POV. Sheila is determined to win.
The yard looks like a huge guinea pig cage, blocks and tube. At least the guinea pigs (the ones I'm rooting for to win) are getting camera time tonight. They have to transfer blocks over a balance beam into a tube and cap it.
James wants to win to prove a point and to be completely in charge. Ryan and Sheila both want to win to save themselves. Matt is already down. Balance beam is usually a better game for women. Matt tells us he didn't throw the comp, he just didn't have his heart in it. Ryan's out -- he hopes Joshuah win it because he might save him. They have to put A LOT of blocks in those tubes!
Sheila dropped a block, she's out. If you fall or drop a block, poof. She cries to us. Chelsia was winning, got going to fast, and fell. James is now in the lead blockswise and Joshuah is in it still. James filled his tube and won POV. Rah rah! He's thrilled with all the power and all the options. Ryan is crushed. I won't say more about Sheila.
Sheila tells people she's not good at campaigning as she campaigns. She's ticked that Natalie said she would have to think about it. After all, she is solely responisible for saving Natalie. She tells Natalie she owes her nothing and keeps going on about all she's done for her. @@
She goes after Adam and tells him she's upset that people have to think about it. He tells her the decision doesn't need to be made right now -- it's all theory until the meeting. Now Natalie is looking like Gary Sinise (sp) to me. She's further upset that Adam won't back her up.
James is till going on the mystery third vote to not have him back in the house. But Sheila snags him first. She is whacked. She throws Adam under the bus suggesting James put him up ... while saying she won't throw him under the bus. James tells her he's waiting for either Adam or Matt to come clean about the vote.
He grabs Adam and brings him to the HOH telling him that Sheila is throwing him under the bus. Adam tells him he was the vote to bring him back. He's being honest. James questions Adams attitude about the mystery vote to us in the DR. He tells Joshuah he might use the veto and takes Chelsia outside to tell her that he might put Adam up.
She tells him that he as to do what's best for him.
OFF TOPIC SIDENOTE: Ack, the new governor of NY to replace Sleaze Spitzer has confessed to multiple affairs. That's all we need -- I can see days of news now.
Back to the show -- James is weighing his options with Chelsia. He's thinking he has to put Adam up. He wants to talk to Sharon as she would be the third vote needed to backdoor Adam. She's in the HOH room. He tells her that they can knock out anyone -- he wants them to think one thing and do another. She tells him that Matt was definitely the third mystery vote. He's infuriated that Matt is still lying to him about the vote. He wants to take Sheila down and replace her with Matt.
He tells us that even though he made a promise to Natalie not to put Matt up, he's been lying to him, so screw him. (Remember when you couldn't say that even on late night TV?)
James examines the Memory Wall -- he has the ability to stab his competition in the back. Woohoo. Ryan is very worried. (They don't mention that he told Ryan he was going to remove him -- too busy with Bible Buddies, I guess). At the POV meeting Sheila says that she's made some mistakes and protected people and she needs to be in the game for herself, wants to stay. Ryan says he tries to be as honest as he can be, wants to stay. He looks defeated. James says he will us it to save Sheila. She's thrilled. She cries. Ryan looks disappointed.
James said she wasn't the main catalyst for last week. He's leaving Ryan on the block as he did last week. When he says Matt, Natalie looks dumbfounded. He tells Natalie they were not playing as couples anymore and she was playing for two. Ryan is a bit relieved -- he thinks the house wants Matt out more than him. Natalie said James is not a man of God and God will strike him down.
James is giddy, sweet sweet revenge and either of them going is a plus for him.
Remember, tomorrow night will have Survivor on at 8 PM ET/PT and BB9 at 9 PM ET/Pt due to March Madness on Thursday. I guess they decided Survivor is more family friendly and shifted BB back an hour.
Also, it's confirmed there will be a summer Big Brother 10 starting in the beginning of July.
My latest BB9 live feeds post is up over on TV Squad. I just watched David Archuleta sing "The Long and Winding Road" on American Idol. Wow.
In about a half hour, I'll be live blogging Big Brother 9 as it airs here on the east coast. Stop on back!
At least when Amber talked about the bible, she didn't read passages aloud and apply them to her situation. Natalie is looking for anything which gives her reassurance that God will help her win HOH.
One constant about this season is the idea of flip-flopping. You wouldn't think that could be considered a constant. But with this crew, it's a way of life. But is it a flip-flop this time? That said, here is the latest news from inside that Big Brother House of Mind Games:
- Matt continued to plead his case -- "Everyone I've ever crossed is already gone! I've never done anything to any of you!" (And he would have to spend his birthday in sequester.)
- Ryan told Matt to tell Natalie to stop campaigning for votes for him (Matt) to stay.
- Natalie thinks the siren will go off again. (I bet it won't.)
- Chelsia popped James' back pimples. Ew. Someone does that each season. Blech.
- Joshuah thinks that Sheila is hanging out with Natalie only because she thinks Natalie will win HOH.
- Matt and Natalie worked on Sheila more for her vote.
- Although he told Ryan he wouldn't use it as ammunition just yesterday, Matt reminded Sheila that Ryan wouldn't walk out empty-handed -- he has the ten grand from the POV comp.
- Matt and Natalie literally begged for Sheila's vote. They told her they had three already.
- Sheila told them to get Sharon and she will think of voting for him. She told them if they get her vote, they aren't to tell anyone.
- Sheila told Matt he has to work on getting James' favor (because he's the one who would break a 3-3 tie).
- Natalie thinks James feels threatened by her. (Maybe because she keeps threatening him?)
- When Sharon and Joshuah asked why Sheila is promising Matt her vote, Ryan got upset because she told him she would vote for him to stay.
- James said Chelsia will tell Natalie she's mad at him and will vote for Matt to stay. But the real plan is still to vote out Matt.
- Chelsia is going to infiltrate the other side. Oh, spy stuff!
- Joshuah is in on the plan with Chelsia and James. (But is he still telling Ryan things? Hmmm... ) Sharon is aboard, too.
- James said if their espionage plan works, Matt will get cockier once again.
- Today is the halfway mark of the season, BB gave them a little party -- a cake with all their pictures on it and beer. They go so good together, cake and beer.
- Matt, Ryan, and Adam talked about what drugs they plan to take once they get out of the house. Oh, authorities? What the heck is going through their minds?
- Matt worked on James, telling him he treated him horrible last week.
- James told Joshuah he needs to work on Ryan, tell him he's in trouble, and try to get a super deal for this week's safety out of him.
- Matt went to the angle of just staying long enough to win a prize now.
- James refused to tell Matt how he'd vote in a tie.
- Chelsia worked on Matt -- told him that she thinks Ryan is just playing Jen's game and if he won, it would be a win for Jen (whom she hates).
- She told Matt that James is not her usual type and she thinks he might think it makes sense to vote her out later.
- She also told him she never told Sharon or Joshuah she was voting him (Matt) out -- they just assumed she would go along with the plan.
- Matt is buying all of this.
- Matt said he'd love to work with Chelsia's crew, they're better. He doesn't mind James, just doesn't think he should be backdoored for something Ryan did.
- James told Ryan he got into a fight with Chelsia and doesn't know what's going on or how she'll vote.
- That put Ryan into worrying mode.
- Chelsia briefly whispered to Joshuah and Sharon that the plan was in effect.
- Sheila and James talked -- she talked in circles on and on again. He told her about the difficulties with Chelsia and how he doesn't know what will happen in the vote anymore.
- Sheila told James that it's actually NATALIE who needs to go, but both Matt and Ryan are evil.
- After she left the HOH room, James did a happy dance.
So, there you go. Double agents and all.
It's time to settle in with a nice hot cup of Irish coffee courtesy of graphic artist Zoetawny!
My latest live feeds report is up over on TV Squad and I'll be posting more later here.
I hope everyone had a good St. Patrick's Day.
No, I didn't have any green beer.
Happy St. Patrick's Day to all! No, I'm not Irish, but does that matter today? Zoetawny is Irish today too because she made this cute graphic for the day! I posted a lengthy report late last night, but here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Woeful Lasses and Laddies:
- Natalie fussed because "all I wanted was pizza and no one saved any for me."
- Sheila told Sharon and Joshuah that some people say she's mental. She claims that's good because people said that about Allison, too. She still goes on about how much she liked Allison.
- Sheila told Joshuah he's scary.
- Sheila talks too too much. Please make her stop. Maybe she'll lose her voice? Please?
- Again Matt repeated that Ryan is the nice guy and he's the [bleep]hole.
- Natalie worked more on Joshuah to get him to help save Matt, promising him three weeks of safety if he votes their way.
- Joshuah told Natalie that the three confirmed votes would have to go to James before he'd say anything.
- Natalie thinks that she has Adam, Sheila, and Sharon to save Matt.
- Natalie is wrong.
- Adam told Matt to stop whining about spending his birthday in sequester.
- Sheila told Ryan they have to flip the house again next week and James, Joshuah or Chelsia have to go.
- Matt told Natalie her campaigning is working against him.
- Sheila told Matt that whoever keeps him will be targeted with a vengeance.
- Joshuah has really jumped on the Chelsia/James train. He'll ride that one as long as he can.
- James and Chelsia talked about flipping the vote and keeping Matt, but decided he would come after them if they did. So, they're still on an evict Matt plan.
All are asleep as I get this posted.
