'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Overnight Into 7/21

Well, well, well... it took James no time at all to slip right into his HOH role. After he talked to Will, he then asked that Diane be sent to his room.

This ain't no disco. This ain't no foolin' around. This is James and he's taking his Head of House seriously, folks! Will he buckle? Will he fold?

Here's the latest from the Big Brother House of Faltering Floaters:

• In his talk with James, Will implied that the producers had promised him something "big." If they don't come through, he seriously wants out.
• Diane thinks Janelle and Howie were the two votes to evict her. Well, she's half right.
• Will reported back to Mike Boogie and Diane that James admitted the S6 Players are indeed an alliance. He also told them that he told James if they got HOH, a S6 will go on the block - no deals. Will wasn't quite honest with his own Boogie Boy. Interesting, huh?
• Diane and James seem to both think Chicken George should go on the block. [Editor's note: Why are people so scared of George? @@ - Must roll my eyes, must!]
• Their meeting was cut short by the arrival of BB pizza. The slop eaters have real food to eat.
• Janelle said she was upset by some anti-Janelle post that Diane made at the Jokers Updates website prior to this season.
• James claims he'll put up Will if Jase wins POV.
• When James talked to Erika in HOH, she said she wants George and Jase on the block. She thinks Chilltown would save Jase, but George is a huge threat... turn around and he'll be in the final three. [@@]
• Erika said she thought she was part of the S6 alliance when James said something about her being a floater.
• Janelle asked Kaysar why he never told Nakomis the vote fell through. He told her that he did let Nakomis know in the morning, so she was prepared.
• Janelle thinks the second vote for Diane was Jase. Say what? Smith, what about Smith?
• Marcellas told James that Jase was very unhappy that he won HOH. He wants James to forget Chicken George and concentrate on Chilltown.
• Marcellas took offense when James referred to him as a floater. James told him he himself was a floater -- he's in the game to win for himself, after all.
• Kaysar also wants George to be evicted this week.
• James told Jase he will not be nominating him this week. (Argh! He should!)
• James also told Jase that "someday he may return the favor." Not quite a deal, but a hint at a deal.
• Diane and Jase had a clandestine meeting in the Red Room. The Smiths said they had to be careful.

Later today should be the food competition and this evening should be nominations. More later!

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - After The Live Show 7/20

<--- See, it's not just Will he likes to touch. Howie's an equal opportunity touchy-feely kind of guy. He was last season, too.

Tonight (last night as I start this past midnight here on the East Coast) was the live show. I really haven't been writing up recaps of the shows for the most part as they're a bit redundant by the time they air. Most of the events and news have already been discussed in my feeds entries.

However, the live show always brings about a few interesting bits. I'm a bit surprised that Janelle stuck with the Nakomis to stay vote when she knew their alliance was backing out due to Chilltown controlling the numbers. I found Will's vote intriguing, too. Now, if he voted before news got around, he may very well have thought he could be casting the vote which would make it a tie. Why would he do that? Well, I think he honestly didn't care between the two on a personal level. But I also wonder if he's got the same game going on as Kaysar -- a desire to keep the stronger player in the game. I'll report back if I hear talk. You know I will.

Then there's James, the Veto King who has never won a HOH before. He can't be trusted and I think that he's playing both sides to an extent. He's closer with S6 Players, but keeps the communication going with Chilltown. Will he stay with nominating floaters? He keeps saying he wants George gone. Or, will he put up Will or Mike... or both? The nominations should be tomorrow (Friday) evening. Stay tuned!

Also, the show had a segment on the alleged Mr. & Mrs. Smith Alliance (Diane, Jase and Alison), but only focused on Diane and Jase. At least now I won't feel I need to explain the theory each time I mention it. Phew! Is it real? I haven't a clue. I honestly think that since many of the houseguests knew each other outside of the house, there indeed be some alliance surprises this season. Only time will tell.

Oh... and Mike did wear Marcellas' huge Afro wig. I liked how Julie Chen didn't even bother to comment on it. That made me snicker at him... with disdain.

All right, to the feeds since the live show we go!

• Diane thanked both Jase and James for voting for her to stay. [Editor's note: Huh, she knew those two right off the bat, eh? SMITH! SMITH!]
• Will/Mike are upset they didn't win HOH. They're worried.
• All of the houseguests thought the HOH was hard. Kaysar didn't think he would have won had he played. [Editor's note: Actually, I think really remembering the answers was impossible. However, you had a 50-50 chance with guesses. I think there was a lot of guessing going on.]
• Howie has an earache. He's had it since yesterday. He claims he didn't hear the first question which got him booted. Will told him the secret to throwing HOH comps is to go out second or third, not first.

• Will and Howie did pull-ups on the stairs and only stopped after BB: "Stop that! Stop that NOW! Will, stop that!" [Editor's note: We're hearing a lot of that this season. I want to hear BB say, "Do you want me to take my belt off?"]
• Will shouted back to BB, "Why don't you guys worry producing a good show for a change?"
• Will told Diane he's going to throw a fit if he's not nominated. He really wants to get out of the house before sequester.
• Both Mike Boogie and Will can't believe Jase never seems to work out, yet maintains his physique.
• Kaysar told Danielle he was a bit upset that Julie said his nominations were "off." [Editor's note: Well, they were, Kaysar! You blew it!]
• James told Howie that there are "four of us and we need another." He specified Jase. [Editor's note: @@ James gets my first eyeroll of the report! Why the hell does he think he can trust JASE? Ack.]
• James' new HOH room is all red and black. His gifts were pictures of Sarah and himself, Diet Dr. Pepper, a bottle of wine and other goodies.
• The Sov. 4 (S6 Players) gloated over their third HOH win in a row (after the other HG left the room). An interesting note -- Marcellas was the first to leave the room. Hmmm...
• They then went into discussing noms. Some think Jase and Chicken George should be put up. Hey! How about Mike and Will? Sheesh.
• Howie thinks Chicken George will clean his way to the finals if not stopped. [Remember, he's the only one who does housecleaning.]
• Howie, James, Kaysar and Janelle made a pact to be the final four.
• Marcellas told Janelle that Chilltown was flipping out over James being HOH.
• In a HOH talk with James, Will told him he cannot go to sequester. [Editor's note: I think this may be true. I think the show may have talked him into coming on. He does, believe it or not, have an active medical practice. Plus, he's a partner in restaurants. He doesn't really need the money so much and, if he's not going to win, the stipend is peanuts to him.]
• James told Will if he puts him up, he wouldn't be the target. Will doesn't like that. James also told Will that Mike Boogie is a bigger threat than he is.

I'm sure the scheming will go on through the night...

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - East Coast Update - 7/20 - HOH

James won HOH against Danielle in a tiebreaker.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - East Coast Update 7/20 - Eviction

Mike voted to evict Nakomis.
Will voted to evict Diane.
James voted to evict Nakomis.
Janelle voted to evict Diane.

Ready to reveal the vote...
By a vote of 8 to 2, Nakomis is evicted.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Digest - Daytime 7/20

It's live show day! Quick! Clean up the house! Throw all those clothes under the bed. The viewers will never know!
;-)

Yes, tonight is the live eviction. As per my usual practice, I'll be posting quick updates on the eviction and HOH winner as it occurs here on the east coast. So, if you're in another time zone and simply can't wait, the news will be here. (Mark it down - I say we'll see Nakomis leave, quite possibly by a unanimous vote.

Here are the day's events from that Big Brother House of Hassled Houseguests:

• Howie is really not feeling well. He was running to the bathroom and then took Tylenol in the wee hours of the morning.
• This morning, by herself, Danielle talked to the Memory Wall. "Why are they it like that? Are we having a comp today? Let's get it ON!" [Editor's note: I'm not sure what was different, but she seemed to notice some sort of change.]
• There was a long period of flame/clouds, some cams with trivia! All with the new bad theme music. When the flame/clouds ended, the HG were already on an inside lockdown. [Editor's note: They even have to pull down all the panels so they can't see outside in these things. On HOH comp day, a long indoor lockdown might be because the staff is setting up the yard. Another long flame/clouds would be the HG practicing at the comp so they don't make the live show go overtime.]
• James said the BB Slop group can eat at midnight. I think he's right, if memory serves.
• A cute Will/Marcellas exchange -- Will: "An oxymoron would be something like military intelligence." Marcellas: "Or Big Brother All Stars." Heh.
• A fairly long outdoor lockdown - nothing new in the yard.
• Then some nap, some discuss Scientology (ack).
• Will said he wants to go home before sequester - week four or five.
• James told Kaysar that Chilltown approached him and wants a truce, claims they'll target the floaters if they win HOH. [Editor's note: Not the plan Will and Mike Boogie discussed on their own. They said Howie and Janelle.]
• James, Danielle (see, now she's there!) and Kaysar discussed how Janelle and Marcellas were hanging out together too much. None are thrilled with Marcellas' constant complaining this season. Kaysar, in particular, is unhappy with Marcellas going against their voting plan and being partly responsible for the turnaround to vote out Nakomis.
• Danielle was taking all that in and got in her two cents to make Marcellas look even worse and herself such a trusted ally. [Editor's note: Cough. Work that mojo, Danielle!]
• Lots of primping. Will wants Mike Boogie to wear Marcellas' huge Afro wig on the live show.
• George was the only one I saw doing any real cleaning.

And, that's bringing things up to date for now. Stop on back later. I may have cookies and milk for everyone.

Or not.

'Big Brother: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Overnight Into 7/20

I really wixh Big Brother would clamp down and institute a bedtime on these houseguests. They're up most of the night, or at least a good portion of them are up. Me? I'm not an insomniac!

Here are the events of the overnight period in the Big Brother House of Noctorunal Ne'er-do-wells:

• Mike Boogie doesn't think Marcellas would put him up if he wins HOH. [Editor's note: Suuure, Mike. Keep on believing that!]
• George wore a thong on his head given to him by Howie.
• Danielle, perhaps not seriously, tried to rally the Slop eaters together to eat, then all get penalty nominations.
• Diane told Mike Boogie that Marcellas told her to talk to S6. [Editor's note: There ya go, Marcellas. She is in with them. Should I type it slower so you understand? If she's not in with them, she'll use them.]
• BB yelled at the HG to stop singing on and off overnight. Most of the time, no one seemed to be singing. At least not on the feed I was watching.
• Howie's BB Slop diet is affecting his system. Keep the bathroom available!
• Mike Boogie (and James before) complained about the light in the tarantula cage being on all the time.
• Janelle and Howie are still grilling each other on House Trivia for the HOH, or one down the road. They seem to think they'll be playing a Majority Rules question game.
• Marcellas is wondering if S6 Players will come after him since he didn't vote the way they wanted (for Nakomis to stay). He and Erika discussed throwing the HOH.
• Kaysar still hasn't told Nakomis the votes switched and she's going home.
• Will complained to anyone who'd listen (or pretend to) about this season being boring and nothing special.
• A BB Slop bucket left sitting on the stove melted and slop abounds, plastic stuck on the burner.
• Janelle thinks they have a good chance of winning HOH.

And, there you go. Now most will sleep until BB forces them out of bed. They have a lot of housecleaning and personal primping to do. Howie is already set with new blond highlights in his hair.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Evening 7/19

So, who's going home tomorrow? I don't know for sure, but if I were a betting woman I'd say Nakomis. That's not the person I want evicted but the houseguests didn't consult me.

Harumph!


Here are the latest tidbits from the Big Brother House of Shenanigans and Tomfoolery:

• Marcellas said he has no fear about going home because he's not invested (emotionally) this season. Of course, if he were on the block, he may be singing a different tune. Y'think?
• Apparently Kaysar and Janelle haven't seen each other much since last season ended. He said he didn't really know what she was like outside of the house when she asked him if he thought she was a spoiled brat.
• Will doesn't remember his season being as boring as this one is. He says it's bad when the most exciting moment is playing kickball with a beach ball.
• Diane asked Marcellas why Mike/Will came on the show if all they're going to do is complain.
• Marcellas advised Diane to tell the S6 Players that she's not after them if she stays.
• Will questioned Howie about how boring Season 6 was. [Editor's note: First the shrink kick, now the boring marathon. Boring, Will!]
• Then Marcellas went to Nakomis and Erika fussing that people who don't want to be in the house (Mike/Will) shouldn't be there.
• The HG set up a net in the backyard and played a game which could only be described as a volleyball/soccer/hackysack combination... with a beachball.
• Will/Mike (talking together) said they should make a truce with Howie and James. Then nominate Kaysar and Janelle if they get HOH. [Editor's note: So much for Kaysar's deal. He's done been Jenned again!]
• Danielle and Will think they've already earned about $12,000 in stipend money so far. [Editor's note: Interesting amount. Up until last year, HG got $750 a week for time spent in sequester and/or the house. This year I heard them mention it was around $1,000, if memory serves. They haven't been tied up for 12 weeks already!]
• Chilltown caught on that S6 Players (allegedly) changed their votes to keep Diane instead of Nakomis.
• Mike Boogie wore a "looking for my next shomance" shirt most of the day. I think the tank top with Boogie 0 on the back is more fitting.
• Instead of the usual throwing of comps, Will and Mike plan to really play for HOH tomorrow. We'll see.
• Will told George not to worry about washing the dishes, he'd get them.
• George washed the dishes. Not that Will didn't get them, mind you. He didn't give him a chance. George is a Man on a Mission in the house. Someone has to clean!

That's about it for now. Tomorrow should be full of primping and preening preparing for the live show. For tomorrow night's live show, I'll be blogging quick updates on the eviction and HOH comp as they occur in East Coast time. So, if you're West Coast and you love show night spoilers, check in here.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Schtuff - 7/19 Daytime

Ah, voting day in the Big Brother house. It's typically a fairly calm day, especially once all the votes have been cast. The houseguests aren't allowed to discuss their votes (the votes are considered Diary Room sessions) and there's no longer a need to try to sway others to vote a particular way. So, the day tends to be a bit peaceful and there's not a heck of a lot of strategic planning going on.

No, the live feed watchers aren't privy to the votes, either. I can tell you no secrets. (Rats!)

Here are some of the highlights and low dives happening today so far in the Big Brother House of Boisterous Buffoons:

• Will was up fairly early (before 9 AM their time) and addressed one of the cameras. "The twist this season is depression!" He again requested to talk to the BB shrink.
• Will keeps singing which, in turn, blocks the feeds with flame/clouds and the new annoying show theme. [Editor's note: If you're not familiar with the reasoning -- it's because the show broadcasts over the Internet. Theoretically, if they sing a song, the show must pay royalties. So, when the HG sing, we get blocked. The HG know it and sometimes deliberately sing.]
• James complained about the wake-up song -- said it was too loud. System of Down? We also don't get to hear the wake-up song BB blasts them with to get them out of bed.
• Diane told Erika BB called her before the show, they didn't call Jase. But Alison was in on it. [Editor's note: This would be the infamous alleged Mr. & Mrs. Smith Alliance - Alison, Jase and Diane. I still don't know exactly its extent, but there does seem to be communication between those three prior to the season.]
• The HG go one by one as called to the Diary Room to vote.
• James shops at Trader Joe's. [Editor's note: I deem this worthy because I'm a Trader Joe's shopper myself. Great store!]
• Some talked about what they're wearing for the live show. It always gets me that these people are watched all the time, but when it comes live show... they primp and fuss. Don't they realize that most of the show's fodder comes from day to day?
• Nakomis and Janelle are holding out hope for some kind of twist that might affect tomorrow's eviction.
• Jase told the others he cried when he wrote his HOH Diary entry last week. [Editor's note: @@ He gets the eyeroll! He knew what he was getting into when he went in the house. Sheesh!]
• Both Diane and Nakomis have to pack their bags.
• George made a Jedi In Training hat out of foil and is wearing it. [Editor's note: Heh, reminds me of his space suit in the john bit in Season 1! He's a goof, but he makes me smile.]
• Kaysar got his HOH camera and, as usual, they had fun taking pictures. At least this season, the house isn't so divided on a personal level that a whole group doesn't participate. At least, so far...

That's where we stand at the time of posting. I want to give thanks to those who have made donations to this blog (button on right), AOL for featuring my blog feeds on their Big Brother feature page and to Deidre over at TV Squad for linking it in her show recap! But, most of all, my thanks go out to the readers. It's your encouragement that keeps me going on these Hamsters. I treasure you all!

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Overnight Into 7/19

My, oh my. What a tangled web we weave...

When I last updated, Kaysar's plan to eliminate the floaters and have the power players in the end game seemed to be faltering. Now, un-Kaysar-like, his plan included lying to the floaters and giving them the false impression that they're safe. Or more safe with the S6 Players than with Chilltown.

Let's play "What If." What if the floaters think it's more safe for them to join up with Chilltown? What if...?

Here's the lowdown on the events (and a few non-events) that I found interesting in the late night and overnight hours in the Big Brother House of Rising No-Stars:

• Similar to his approach to James, Jase tried convincing Marcellas that he should be in the final three with him. The third? Chicken George! [Editor's note: That would be a very odd final three. Jase is pulling straws and legs with his scenarios.]
• Jase also told Marcellas that he wanted Nakomis to go home before. But now with the Mr. & Mrs. Smith Alliance rumors (Jase, Diane, Alison), he wants Diane to go home just to prove the point. [Editor: Liar! Liar! Pants on fire! He agreed with Chilltown to vote out Nakomis. He's trying to manipulate Marcellas. Will Marc catch on...?]
• Jase then reported back to Mike Boogie that Marcellas is voting with them to keep Diane. He wanted to know where the work on George stood. [Editor's note: Remember, Chilltown went out to get both George and Marcellas to vote for Diane to stay. They needed two more votes. They have Will/Mike, Jase, Danielle and now... Marcellas and George. 6 to 4 will keep Diane. A tie would give Kaysar the ability to keep Nakomis.]
• Jase and Mike Boogie discussed how Janelle controls Marcellas and thinks he may flip-flop.
• James and Jase started trying to jump over the narrow end of the pool. With too many injuries so early in the season, BB snapped at them -- "Stop that! Stop that NOW!" BB yelled at them about a half-dozen times. Good. They need to be yelled at.
• Jase tried to feed a moth to a spider out in the yard. Symbolic, I say.
• In a private talk between Jase and Mike Boogie, both admitted they wouldn't mind seeing Kaysar win as he's a good guy. They like both him and Howie. Mike also said that Chicken George can stay a long time -- he's cooking and cleaning. He's nice enough, though a bit weird.
• Nakomis talked with Kaysar in the HOH room. She told him that she wants to ally with S6 because they don't "strongarm" people like Chilltown. She also knows that before the show, Diane told her to trust Jase. So, there may be something to Mrs. & Mrs. Smith.
• Nakomis said if she stays and wins HOH, she would put up Will and George. Then she'd rally to keep George.
• She also asked Kaysar why he didn't nominate Will/Mike. He told her it was because that was the expected move. He wanted to see who would ally with whom. He also told her he knew something was going on between Diane and Jase.
• James asked Danielle if she would vote to evict Diane. Danielle told him she already gave her word to Diane, can't change it.
• Marcellas had a blow-up with Kaysar over his vote. He said that he's voting to keep Diane and that's it. He voted last week to keep Danielle, but he can't vote Diane out this week. He told them they should talk to Diane because he believes she'll target Chilltown. [Editor's note: Yeah, right.]
• Marcellas sees Nakomis as a monster - her cards are all too close to her chest. [Editor's note: Huh?]
• It was a huge long verbal brouhaha. Kaysar was trying to manipulate, then said he can't manipulate. Marcellas doesn't want to be pressured. And on and on. And on.
• James thinks the floaters are planning the demise of S6 Players.
• Marcellas told Erika that Diane will go after Chilltown. He also said Nakomis is a stronger player than Diane. Erika wonders why Kaysar is determined to keep the strongest players in the game. Marcellas told her that he thinks S6 Players are pushing the floaters towards Chilltown by being such an exclusive group.
• Marcellas is being like the Energizer Bunny with his rant. He even seems to have forgotten to rant about having to eat BB Slop. Is there an on/off switch I could use?
• Kaysar is very upset about the vote changes. His plan is backfiring.
• James freaked out saying that if the votes don't come their way, they're screwed. [Editor's note: Okay, he was a bit more graphic. I try to keep this blog on a PG level. ;-)]
• Erika told James that she'll vote along with the HOH needs. But, even if she votes for Nakomis to stay, it's still 6-4. They would need to swing someone back to at least get a tie where Kaysar would make the deciding vote.
• Marcellas got into another snit with Kaysar and James. Kaysar brushed him off and James actually got into an almost physical spat with him. [Editor's note: Are they insuring he'll vote to keep Diane if it's not already set in stone?]
• Marcellas and James kind of sort of kissed and made up. Okay, they hugged. But it was such an emotional moment. Someone pass me a tissue, please. [honk]
• S6 Players are considering dumping their plan and all voting for Diane to stay. "Our adversary just grew," said Kaysar. [Editor's note: That's what you get for being sneaky, K. You should have nominated Will/Mike and gotten rid of Mike -- the actual leader of Chilltown.]
• Danielle teamed up once again with S6 and they talked to her about Diane. [Editor's note: Now, here's the actual best player in this game. She's in with both groups. Unless Chicken George has a devious plan, Danielle is the best sneak in the house.]
• The rest of the time was small talk, Internet talk and nothing too exciting.
• As usual, a good portion of the houseguests stayed up most of the night. They need a bedtime! They're all sleeping as I post this entry.

The voting is today, but once they vote the HG are not allowed to talk about the votes cast. Right now it's looking very bad for Nakomis. Very, very bad. That's a shame as I personally would rather see what she could do in the game and I never cared for Diane, the girl without a plan. Oh, other to cry about how her life sucks and she has nothing. @@ There. She deserves eyerolls from us all.

Once again, graphics by AOL's own Zoetawny. I love this one!

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Into The Evening 7/18

<---- James confronted Kaysar telling him that he's working his butt off to get information from Chilltown, Janelle called him out in front of them, and that Kaysar kept secrets. I think I'm going to call him James Dangerfield -- he never gets any respect... at least that's what he thinks. Of course, no one in the whole house trusts him, but that would be another nickname entirely.

It's been an evening of scheming, changing vote plans and more. Here's the skinny from the Big Brother House of Fickle Fates:

• Will and Mike Boogie tried to figure out why everyone isn't aganst the S6 Players. They're wondering if they came on too strong.
• They also talked about making a "real deal" with S6. [Editor's note: Hmmm... does that mean they didn't make a real deal with Kaysar and are/were planning to break it?]
• Boogie can't figure Janelle out. At all. [Editor's note: She's a buxom blonde, Mike!]

• James told Janelle that Nakomis won three HOH comps. Janelle told him HOHs don't send people home; people send people home.
• When James pried for info on the alleged Mr. and Mrs. Smith alliance (Jase, Diane and Alison), Boogie claimed he was in an alliance with Jase called the Ambiguously Gay Duo.
• James went back to Kaysar to report that he thinks there is no Smith Alliance. Kaysar thinks there is and told James to trust his judgment.
• James then ranted once again about taking out a worthless player when they could be removing Will or Boogie.
• James kept the confrontation going with Kaysar and I noticed that Kaysar did NOT explain his strategy to him such as he did to Janelle. He told Janelle that he wanted all power players at the end.
• Kaysar told James that he was calling him a liar and wondered who he's been listening to. He once again told James that he told no one his nominations before he made them.
• Meanwhile, in the backyard, Chilltown -- now Mike/Boogie, Jase and new recruit (for as long as it serves her purpose) Danielle. They want Diane to stay (can you say Smith? I thought you could). They're unsure of Erika, believe Marcellas is a hanger-on with S6 even though he originally told Diane he'd vote to keep her. So that leaves George. They need two votes more. If it's a tie, Kaysar will keep Nakomis. They also have to swing Marcellas.
• Danielle goes off to work on George, the Clueless.
• James is pouting and threatening not to share any more information.
• Kaysar once again is convinced his strategy is solid. He thinks the floaters think emotionally, not strategically. Right now, Erika and Marcellas feel safe. But when the disruption (he causes?) in the house happens, they'll fall apart. Right now they keep S6 safe, because S6 kept them safe.
• His strategy still confuses me.
• He claims he wants everyone to have to PLAY the game and not just slide by.
• Kaysar talked to Jase who admitted to talking to Diane before entering the house. SMITH!
• Diane told Danielle and Marcellas that she'd go for Will if she stayed.
• Janelle knows that Danielle was talking to Marcellas and thinks he's on the fence with the vote again.

• S6 thinks Danielle owes them for saving her last week. I don't think Danielle quite feels that way.
• James also ranted at Janelle about calling him out in front of Chilltown when he was trying to gather information. He rants a lot.
• It looks like Chilltown now has the 6 votes to keep Diane - Marcellas, George, Danielle, Mike/Will and Jase.
• That could change tomorrow. Or not.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Digest - Through The Day 7/18

<--- Janelle plays with her BB Slop as Howie shaves his chest in the background.

As we get closer to the voting day (tomorrow), are they wheeling and dealing? Are they scheming?

You be the judge.

Here are the important or interesting stuff o' the day from the Big Brother House of Bored Bedmates:

• As Kaysar and Janelle talked before the dawn, he revealed more of the why behind his strategy. Now, I understand it, but I don't necessarily approve. He wants to take out all the "floaters" first so that the end of the game is all the Power Players. He doesn't want to beat anyone "easy" in the end. To me, it sounds like Big Brother fed some of the Good vs. Evil hype into his head. If I were playing, I'd target the strongest first while I could get the numbers behind me to help.
• Janelle says they need to keep saying they're going to go after Chilltown, thus lying to the floaters because they're the immediate target.
• S6 doesn't know if Erika is dumb or playing dumb. [Editor's note: My vote is the latter, but she may not think she's a target.]
• Kaysar and Janelle think they can trust Nakomis more than Erika because Erika is "sneaky."
• A Janelle quote: "Erika is a good-looking version of April." [Editor's note: Yikes! I hope not!]
• Kaysar likens Howie to Barney Rubble. Heehee!
• While talking to Danielle, James basically told her the S6 Players plan to vote out floaters not Chilltown. [Editor's note: @@ Same old James. He gets an eyeroll.]
• Danielle says her gut tells her Diane should stay. [Editor's note: This is after she agreed to vote to keep Nakomis.]
• BB made a good morning announcement at about 11:15 for those still slumbering. Lights out bedtime needed, I say! The music was Eminem according to Diane. They block that from the feeds.
• Marcellas woke up grumpy. Not a surprise this season.
• After BB played the song, they called an outdoor lockdown. A few HG think it was due to tarantula maintenance.
• Jase told Kaysar he thinks he (Kaysar) will be safe when the other S6 are gone. He thinks after the house is thinned out, he and Kaysar will be the tightest alliance. [Editor's note: @@]
• Then they had an indoor lockdown. Fun, fun.
• Howie is so desperate for food that he was sniffing M&Ms.
• Will keeps saying he wants to see the show's shrink.
• Today had spider cam on and off. It's better than flame/clouds.
• Diane said the Diary Room accused her of mixing butter in the BB Slop.
• True to Kaysar's plan, Janelle campaigned some to have George evicted next.
• Danielle and James said they'd never backdoor a HG.
• Danielle can't understand why Mike/Will don't trust James. [@@]
• James told Kaysar and Janelle that Will/Mike have been asking who he'd nominate if HOH, who he wants voted out. They told him not to give Chilltown any info at all.
• Marcellas wore an Afro wig and looked like something out of a bad '70s pimp flick.
• BB gave the HG craft supplies to make bracelets and stuff. It doesn't seem like any sort of planned activity for a comp.
• Kaysar thinks his plan is going perfect. There's already been one big fight (Mile acting up the other night?) and the fireworks will be towards the end. Um. Okay, Kaysar. If you say so.

That's the buzz! Remember -- the show airs tonight at 8 PM ET/PT in most viewing areas.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Through The Night Into 7/18

Here's the hoppin' happenings from the late night and overnight in that Big Brother House of Silly Hamsters and Their Diabolical Doctor:

• Now Marcellas and Erika are both going to vote to evict Diane. For now. It may change with the wind.
• George had a talk with S6 and floaters about his season and asked a lot of questions about the other seasons. Yawn.
• The HG played pool. The HG played charades. The HG played with slop -- er, dressing up the BB Slop so it was more interesting to eat.
• George is at home in the kitchen.
• Big Brother had to tell them to be careful in the pool as they played a game underwater. Big Brother probably didn't want to have to save them. Big Brother was getting a bit annoyed and sharper in tone at them. I love when Big Brother (the voice, anyway) gets ticked and off the taped announcements.
• Some of the HG acted out scenes from a in-house soap opera Marcellas created.
• Will/Boogie conspired against Janelle. "Cut off the head and the body dies."
• Mike told Erika they were going to go @%# with Janey as they went to talk to her.
• They pried her for information on the S6 Players alliance. She said there wasn't one. They tried to get her to make a deal that if a Sov. 4 person won HOH, they wouldn't put up a Chilltown. She made no deals. [Editor's note: Good girl. Better than Kaysar's decision!]
• Mike Boogie told Marcellas they were trying to be "good TV." It was better TV to be scheming with Janelle than goofing around with Howie. [Editor's note: Um. Okay. I kind of like watching George learn the Jedi ways with Howie.]
• Janelle shrugged off the idea that S6 Players want to get rid of Chilltown. Obviously an act, but did Mike/Boogie accept it? She ended up lying to their faces. [Editor's note: She should wear Will's "I'm Probably Lying" t-shirt.]
• Marcellas seems to have forgotten how much he hates Danielle. His targets now are Jase (especially, at the moment), Mike and Will.
• In a talk with James, Janelle told him Mike was their leader. He must go. [Editor's note: YES!]
• Diane worked on Marcellas trying to get him to keep her in the house.
• Janelle, Kaysar and Howie decide to lie to floaters.
• No one at all can figure Chicken George out. That may work to his benefit if he's not targeted week after week.
• Howie, Janelle and Kaysar think a great showdown at the end of the season would be S6 against Chilltown. [Editor's note: But, but... Mike? Aren't you going to get Mike Boogie out of there? I don't like him!]
• Danielle agrees to vote to keep Nakomis if they go after Chilltown.

So, who will stay? I don't know. If it's a tie, Kaysar will vote to keep Nakomis.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feed Report - 7/17 Into The Evening

<--- Don't pick, don't tell. Or, pale is the new tan.

It's not as volatile so far tonight in the house as it was last night, but they don't seem to have alcohol. That, of course, proves my theory that BB gives them alcohol to stir up the hornets' nest as much as because they request it.

What happened today since I last posted? Here's the scoop from the Big Brother House of Goop:

• A Jase quote: "The people in here are weird." I can't add much to that, can I?
• Howie and Janelle want to keep Nakomis, Marcellas and Danielle want to keep Diane. They all had a very long strategy talk going over pros and cons.
• After Danielle left Janelle, she mumbled to herself, "You think I'm doing this for S6, I'm not. I'm doing this for Danielle. Y'all better recognize."
• In a strategy talk, Kaysar told Janelle that Jase is nervous because he knows they know he's with Diane. Janelle brought up that they don't have enough votes to save Nakomis -- a few are on the fence, though. Danielle won't commit. Marcellas feels sorry for Diane and says he must vote for her to stay. [Editor's note: Argh. That's how Cowboy got as far as he did!]
  
• Danielle had a long friendly get-to-really-know-you with Nakomis. They seemed to get along well, but I haven't a clue if it changed her mind about wanting her out.
• Nakomis said she won't be mad at anyone if she gets voted out -- it's just a game.
• A Marcellas quote: "The last time I was the black guy who talked to himself. This time I'm the black guy who makes weird sounds.' [Editor's note: I got a kick out of him talking to himself that season. He was a hoot! He is so not a hoot this season.]
• Mike Boogie um... christened Howie's Jack Shack for the season. [Editor's note: He's obviously not the Master of his Domain.]
• Danielle told him he could keep the bottle of lotion he used.
• Marcellas and Janelle took a bubble bath together (in bathing suits) and talked strategy. Same old, same old... new location.
• Marcellas said that if he wins HOH, he'll put up both Mike Boogie and Will and get it over with.
• Diane and Nakomis were talking about who they thought would be the final two. Diane thinks Erika and Danielle. Nakomis thinks George and Danielle.
• Howie and Janelle are quietly studying for questions about the house which may be in a HOH comp.
• The HG are enthralled with a spider in the yard. [Editor's note: Every season there's one, but you'd think they'd be more interested in the pet tarantulas!]
• Now Marcellas is trying to talk Erika into voting to keep Nakomis. He says that if Diane stays, he'll be stuck with a house of frat boys. Nakomis would keep her word and not go after them, then they can gang up on her at the end. [Editor's note: Dang, he changes his mind every two hours or so.]
• Mike is badmouthing Janelle as I type this. He creeps me out. He's mean.

So, there things stand. We know the Veto wasn't used and it's a guess who's going to go home. What I am seeing is that Janelle can really manipulate Marcellas. I also think that Danielle is working just about everybody except Jase. She's playing a solid game after almost blowing it in the first week.

Who's going home Thursday?

Don't ask me!

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Daytime/POV Ceremony - 7/17

<-- Product placement? Or, as James says, "Milk or SLOP? Orange juice or SLOP? Diet Coke or SLOP?"

Well, after last night's activities, one can only wonder what today will bring.

Here's the latest news from the daytime hours in that Big Brother House of Malicious Meandering Monkey-Boys:

• Danielle was the first to awaken at around 10 AM their time, shortly followed by the BB Voice From Above: "Good Morning, houseguests. The Veto Ceremony will begin in two hours."
• Since few jumped, another announcement was mad a half-hour later stating it would be held in 90 minutes. [Editor's note: Well, if they didn't stay up all night!]
• Will told George and Nakomis that the Veto might be used because Mike acted up so much last night.
• James asked Nakomis if Erika has said anything to them about using the Veto. [Editor's note: He just can't stand not knowing, can he?]
• George cooked up fried slopcakes for the BB Slop eaters.
• Nakomis and Diane both hope Erika will use the Veto, but don't think she will.
• Kaysar told Marcellas he nominated Diane and Nakomis to "cause friction and find out alliances." [Editor's note: @@ - Hmm, Kaysar's getting a lot of eyerolls from me so far this season! The Man With A Plan better get his act together.]
• There were flame/clouds and then... the Veto was NOT used. Nakomis is upset, thinks she's going home.
• Diane is upset, too. Both plan not to campaign to stay and let the chips fall where they may. Both fuss for what seems to be forever. And a day.
• Marcellas told Mike his "reign of terror" isn't going to work and that he wasn't even on the radar until his activities last night.
• The rest of the afternoon dissolved into porno talk, drugs talk and miscellaneous fussing about BB Slop and the heat.

Remember, the big new here -- the Veto was not used. Nakomis and Diane are still on the block. From what folks are saying, it looks like Diane would be the choice to evict. But anything can change in three days in the house.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Digest - Overnight Into 7/17

The House of Big Personalities and Perhaps Even Bigger Bad Judgment was hopping last night.


Here's the latest:

• Erika asked Kaysar if he still wants to get rid of the same person. He told her now it's Diane. She said she'll do whatever he wants her to do with the veto.
• Janelle thinks they (Howie, James and herself) should tell Kaysar they should keep Nakomis. [Editor's note: Communication is key, guys!]
• Marcellas and Danielle both are campaigning for Diane to stay.
• Marcellas now feels better about Danielle being in the house than Mike/Will. He warned Janelle that Kaysar sold them out with his deal.
• Will complained about Janelle in front of S6 Players.
• Diane got sleazy and was giving body shots of alcohol to the guys.
• BB won't allow them to have whipped cream in the hot tub. What a surprise, eh?
• Kaysar told Marcellas why he wants to put up the stragglers while Marcellas tried to convince him Mike Boogie should go. [Editor's note: I agree with Marcellas!]
• Will thinks Kaysar may put up Jase if the veto is used.
• Diane went into a crying jag.
• Will told Kaysar that Diane and Nakomis should stay and he should go on the block. [Editor's note: Say what? He did, he really did? But, did he mean it?]
• Mike Boogie picked on Marcellas and now those two are nasty to each other.
• Janelle had a verbal fuss with Mike Boogie and told him she didn't like him referring to her as Queen Bee.
• Mike Boogie and Jase sucked up to Kaysar telling him how great he was doing as HOH. [Editor's note: Just a tad patronizing and condescending, eh? Dang, I hope Kaysar realizes this!]
• Janelle lit into Kaysar about the problems with Chilltown. He tried to calm her down. She's mad about the deal he made and he seemed to basically dismiss her concerns.
• Kaysar doesn't think Janelle and Howie are playing the game and he is. [Editor's note: Okay, Kaysar deserves an eyeroll. @@ ]
• Mike ranted about Marcellas being with S6 Players and gloated about them all being scared of him. [ @@ ]
• Mike and Will think that, with Howie, they'd make a great final three. [Editor's note: Ah, yes... they have taken a liking to Howie. Has he to them? I don't think so.]
• Nakomis said she doesn't like people starting drama. [Editor's note: She's in the wrong house then. That's the point behind the show!]
• Mike got drunk (thanks to BB) and was truly obnoxious for most of the night.
• Kaysar still thinks he has some sort of Grand Plan. Janelle told him the CT was planning to come after them one by one. He asked if she wanted him to use the veto to evict one of them, she said yes. Then he said that Nakomis will come around to them if she stays, but they have to get rid of Diane.
• Kaysar has a plan for if Mike wins HOH, but we got... flame/clouds and bad music before we could hear the plan.
• Kaysar thinks Janelle has been listening to Marcellas too much while she's convinced the S6 Players are in danger.
• Danielle complained to the S6 Players about Chilltown calling her out and bothering her.
• George seems to have gravitated to Chilltown, but I'm not sure how well he's actually accepted by them.
• A Kaysar quote: "In order for good to exist, there must be evil." Um. Okay. He could keep one evil and there would still be good.
• Mike/Will worked on Howie trying to turn him against James.
• Erika, Marcellas and Nakomis talked about how the Chilltown bunch was "strong-arming" everyone else.
• Kaysar told Janelle he didn't want to let Nakomis know ahead of time that they were going to save her. He's upset that she already has talked to Nak about it.
• Even Diane told Kaysar/Janelle that Chilltown was harassing Howie in the yard. Kaysar said Howie can handle it.
• Kaysar wants Chicken George out next because he's with Chilltown. [Editor's note: Duh... and what are Mike and Will? @@ ]
• Kaysar thinks Chilltown should be called Meltdown.
• Kaysar thinks one reason they must keep Nakomis is because she's a threat to Jase.
• Kaysar told Howie to stay on the same level with Chilltown, "Don't go Busto on them."
• The last of the Up All Night Crowd, Janelle and Kaysar just went to sleep a bit before I'm posting this.

Well, it's happened. It took a while, but Big Brother's House is starting to explode. Or implode. Anyway, it's getting ugly. Yay!

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Into The Evening 7/16

Come tomorrow, the hamsters will have been in the Habitrail... er... Big Brother house for two weeks. Yes, they went in on Monday, July 3rd. How time flies when you're eating glop, bobbing for rats and having a jolly ol' time.

Here are the latest happenings I deemed important or amusing from the feeds in that Big Brother House of Deceitful Ne'er-do-wells:

• James snapped at George only to find himself barraged by Marcellas' mouth. "You go right out and apologize to him! You had no right to be that way! He's the one who cooks! He's the one who cleans! We're just a bunch of [bleeping] slobs! He didn't deserve to be treated that way!" Eep.
• Nakomis, while talking to Marcellas, referred to the show as the Jase, Boogie, Will and Howie Show.
• Kaysar had a long talk with Mike Boogie about his religion and culture. Boogie actually was asking the questions and seemed interested. [Editor's note: Was he really interested or was this another act? I dunno.]
• In the talk, Kaysar told him that Michael (BB6) was told he couldn't be on the show unless he (Kaysar) went on. He was worried about how he and his religion would be perceived, so the show had him call religious virgin Jason from BB3 to get his take on how a religious person might be able to be on the show and not compromise his values.
• Jase and Will played with their mics, making funny noises and blowing air into them and such. BB Voice: "Please treat your microphone with respect."
• Marcellas doesn't wear underwear. [Editor's note: No, I wasn't looking - he said he didn't and I didn't ask for proof!]
• Janelle wants to boycott the Diary Room until she gets more pickles and honey for her BB Slop. James jumped on the bandwagon.
• Janelle was called to the DR. After saying no, she went.
• Janelle doesn't like Kaysar's hanging out with Mike/Will. But when James asked her if she thought he joined them, she said no. She also thinks that Howie has been hanging around them too much, too.
• Janelle wants Diane gone this week.
• Nakomis asked BB for cyanide and protein power. Janelle asked what cyanide is. [Editor's note: And she's the brains of the operation, right? Oh, Janie!]

That about does it for now. Tomorrow should be the POV Ceremony. That could be interesting. Not that we see it on the feeds, of course. But the HG loose lips sink ships and all.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Sunday 7/16 - Screen Caps

<--- Party animals after Mike's birthday festivities. And, what an unusual party it was. But that will come just a bit later in this report.

Right now, let's go back to this morning and start from there. Oh, okay... no one was awake. Turn those clock hands forward a smidgen and I'll dive right into the happenings of our favorite BB All-Star Whackos in the House of Both Slop and Slobs:

• Mike was actually the first one up this morning at about 10:15 AM, their time. He was quickly joined by the usual first up Nakomis. Last night she tried to see if he would make any deals with her, but no go. Will he make any today?
• Mike thinks his mother is probably upset because it's his birthday and he's her only child. [Editor's note: Oh, poor baby. He could just go home!]
• The BB Slop has kicked in with the houseguests on restriction. Now they'd prefer PB&J. James whined and fussed about lacking energy from not eating.
• Will was the last to straggle into the Land of the Living at around 12:30 PM their time.
• Marcellas, Janelle, Danielle and Nakomis had a long talk about both Will and Jase. They think Will is definitely charismatic, but Jase is extremely bitter. [Editor's note: Gee, the HG from some past shows wouldn't know what "charismatic" means, to say nothing about pronouncing it right. At least this crew has some brights.]
• A Will quote: "Call the FBI, because we're stealing the show!"
• Will told Mike Boogie that they should lie to the house telling them there's a luxury comp. They would put the other men in indoor lockdown and send the girls to the pool in bikinis, then spend the day with them. [Editor's note: Well, it was better than his proposed lie that he had cancer in his season.]
• Diane told the guys stories about all the men she's cheated on. [Editor's note: May I have an eyeroll, please? @@ ]
• Will and Kaysar set up a surprise birthday party for Mike. They set up the table with cake and sushi.
• Will conned Erika into laying on the table legs spread with all the food. Oh, and whipped cream, too. Her comment, "Why is it always me talked into this stuff?"
• Will wrote Happy Birthday on Erika with the whipped cream. BB was sure to get a shot of it; that will make the show.
• Party, party, sing, sing, blah, blah. Mike ate the whipped cream off of Erika, not really a surprise to me.
• Before long, the BB Slop eaters drifted away with the exception of Howie.
• Howie just walked around the table saying how good the food looked while Will kept egging him on to eat (thus receive a penalty nomination). Howie didn't fall for it.
• Nakomis, Janelle and Marcellas sat in the yard. Marcellas ranted and raved, then ranted some more about the BB Slop. They think BB wants to drive them apart with the food. Marcellas thinks they started it too soon in the season and someone would just quit.
• No one has quit.
• Erika and Nakomis had a long talk. While Nakomis isn't campaigning against Diane, she's certainly working the mojo for herself. She was the early target and now just about the whole house likes her, at least the S6 Players and Friends.
• Erika might very well use the veto to save Nakomis. At least, that seems to be the current thought.
• Howie came into the backyard wearing only a party hat to cover his um... goods. Yes, I got a screen cap.
• Janelle is solidly in favor of Nakomis staying. Even James is swinging in that direction.
• Out of context here, but deserving of mention: Nakomis told Janelle and Marcellas that she first thought Howie was a bully, but now knows he's a sweetheart deep down inside.
• Dang, forget about Jase being the bitter one. Marcellas makes him look like a pansy this afternoon. [Editor's note: I couldn't resist.]

Remember, the show is on at 8 PM ET/PT in most viewing areas tonight. Of course, I have my own private show goin' on right here.

'Big Brother 7 - All Stars' - Live Feeds Digest - Overnight Into 7/16

Like the Roman Empire, alliances are crumbling throughout the Big Brother house. Well, perhaps not crumbling, per se. Maybe changing would be a more apt description. Okay. Let me start over again. Like a perpetual motion machine, the alliances are... Oh, that's not working, either. One more try. Big Brother, who's on first? No, what's on second...!

Without further ado, here are the important, yet possibly confusing, events from the overnight in that House of Big Brotherly Love:

• Remember, in my previous entry, I told of Kaysar's long and heartfelt talk with Nakomis. Her honesty and integrity seemed to impress him. Will it change his mind about the target this week? Or is a backdoor plan already in motion and she's not in the mix anyway? Like sand through the hourglass...
• Will/Mike developed a new game trying to kick balls into Howie's family jewels. Boys will be boys.
• Marcellas and Erika seem to have gravitated together.
• Danielle told Erika that Nakomis keeps her word, but Diane doesn't. Erika thinks that if Diane (and the alleged Mr. and Mrs. Smith alliance with Jase) stays, she'll target S6 Players and not them. Erika told Danielle that she worked hard to make sure she (Danielle) stayed in the house.
• Mike was running by the pool, fell and hit his back and head. Flame/clouds for a while, but he's okay. [Editor's note: 2 weeks in and the injuries are racking up -- Alison's head bonk in the POV Comp, George's back in the first HOH Comp, Erika's ribs in the food comp and now Mike's back and head.]
• James said nominating people is harder this year because everyone gets along pretty well and likes each other. [Editor's note: And, how many people has James nominated this year? Um, none?]
• James, Janelle and Howie had a long strategy talk. James thinks that Kaysar is afraid of Will/Mike and won't make important moves this year. He thinks Kaysar compromised the group to look out for his own best interests. Janelle admitted that Kaysar made a deal -- if he didn't nominate a Chilltown, they wouldn't go after him. James is very upset that Kaysar didn't confide in him regarding the nominations and he feels he's on his own again. He also thinks Diane and Nakomis are more trustworthy than Will/Mike. He thinks Kaysar is more worried about how he's perceived than how he plays the game. They all think Jase has slipped right in with the new Chilltown.
• Janelle told James that Kaysar's deal with Chilltown was meant to make them not trust one another. [Editor's note: Okay, I haven't a clue how that would be better than just ridding the house of one of them.]
• Kaysar told Erika to leave the nominations be. James and Co. want her to save someone and change the game around.
• Even Kaysar's strongest support, Janelle, is upset with the nominations and the deal with Chilltown.
• James and Janelle confronted Kaysar. Now Kaysar wants to save Nakomis. [Editor's note: As he should! She would be a much more worthy ally than either Mike or Boogie, and thinks along the lines of Kaysar even if right now her target is S6 Players. That's basically because they're the strongest alliance in the house.]
• Kaysar wants to try to make a deal with Nakomis that Diane will go home. Janelle thinks it would be better to veto and put up Mike, he goes. Janelle thinks that if Diane stays, she will work with Mike/Will. They all think that if Nakomis makes any sort of deal, she'll stick with it.
• Kaysar still wants to send Diane home, keep friction going between Nakomis/Jase and Marcellas/Danielle to take the focus off of the S6 Players.
• Janelle and James said that they would have to accept Nakomis as "one of us" if they save her. [Editor's note: Remember, Howie despises Nakomis and James ain't too thrilled with her, either.]
• When BB told the HG to check the storage room, like a miracle... more alcohol. @@ - Must roll the eyes. Must.
• Then most of the HG played charades. For a very long, long time.
• James keeps on whining about Kaysar making bad decisions, claims Kay wants them to do his dirty work. He thinks they should put a plan in place to save Nakomis because she's the smarter player and will fit in well with the S6 alliance. He thinks Diane's off the deep end and will go for them.
• Like I think, the S6 Players all seem to think that Nakomis is someone who'd stick to her word and Diane isn't.
• The HG thinks the producers are upset because their personas have changed -- Will isn't such the Evil Doctor, etc. That got us flame/clouds... with bad music.
• Will blatantly made a banana split in front of those who can only eat BB Slop supposedly in an effort to entice one to eat, thus getting a penalty nomination. It didn't work.
• Marcellas thinks he could win on Survivor. [Editor's note: Another @@ needed. I can just see him with bugs and nasty stuff, right.]
• Kaysar was the last one still up. He did his prayers and looks very troubled.

In other news, Happy Birthday Mike Boogie. There, I said it. Only to be nice, y'know. I don't want Chilltown coming after me.

'BB7: All-Stars' - Live Feeds Update - Since POV 7/15

<--- America's Got Talent

It's been an odd day for the live feeds. It seems there's someone manning a BB camera with a quick trigger finger for blocking. The slightest perhaps violation of maybe singing a song brings up the flame/clouds with or without trivia, but always with bad music. Plus, the cams have been all focusing on one person or one room instead of providing any variety. Heck, if I didn't know others existed, I'd think Diane, Nakomis and perhaps Marcellas were the only houseguests. With the exception of very brief showings of the others, that's who I've been seeing for the most part.

Here are some of the more interesting things going on in the House of Damsels in Distress:

• Kaysar said something about Diane making the house uncomfortable in the nomination speech and that's upsetting Diane. She thinks it's a sign that they want them out.
• Danielle talked at length about her various jobs and how things always work out for the best in the long run.
• The HG are really experimenting and requesting things to spice up the BB Slop.
• George deep-fried the BB Slop and that seemed popular.
• Diane talked about being a stand-in on NCIS for a few months. [Editor's note: But she earlier claimed to never have gotten her SAG card? Huh?]
• James is working Diane for some reason. I don't know if he's trying to get information for S6 or for his own odd agenda. He told her it was his idea to nominate Danielle. He also went on about S6 Players betraying him in that season. What's he up to? Anyone know?
• Marcellas told Diane he's working the house to try to have her stay. He suggested she tell the S6 Players she won't target Janelle if she stays.
• James told Kaysar that Mike/Will told him they're worried about one of them being a planned backdoor move this week. When he asked Kaysar how they were voting, Kaysar said, "Nakomis." [Editor's note: I'm beginning to think a backdoor might very well be in progress, but no one would ever tell James.]
• Will told Diane that they're working for her to stay.
• Danielle asked James who Kaysar wants out. He told her he didn't know, but he personally was voting Nakomis.
• The BB contract says houseguests can be on food restrictions for up to four weeks in a row.
• We watched Danielle sleep for a while... on all four feeds. The greens were nice, at least.
• Small talk going on now, Nakomis and Kaysar. Not strategy talk, small talk.

'Big Brother 7: All-Stars' - Live Feeds Bulletin - POV Winner

No one seems to be wearing the POV necklace, but:

• Howie told Erika she's good at golf
• Neither Nakomis or Diane won it as they're complaining.
• Diane said one of the "friends of HOH" won it and won't use it.
• James is talking with them, so he didn't win it.
• Either Nakomis or Diane said "she" won't use it.
• The feeds have been only on Nakomis, Diane, Danielle and James since they came back.

Thus, right now I'm assuming Erika won POV. I will update confirmation when I have it.

Update: Confirmed, Erika won POV. I don't post things as confirmed until I have definite proof, not "she" or iffy things. The evidence was strong enough that I felt secure posting it, but I always feel much better with direct evidence and now, it's been actually said by name on the feeds.
