BB22: Live Feeds into Saturday Afternoon - August 15

 

I'm surprised Dani's not targeted

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Wayward Boys and Girls:

• As I mentioned in my last update, Memphis put Nicole A and David on the block.
• That had been his plan, along with Ian as a back-up if someone is saved with the veto.
• The Ian bit is out the door as Christmas saved him with the Safety Suite Plus One.
• I had mentioned that Memphis was irked about the save as (he claims) Nicole F had saved Ian from being a Have Not just that morning. I found out how she did that -- apparently this year the Have Nots each name someone to be a Have Not the next week. Ian was named and Nicole F stepped in to take his place.
• Ain't that sweet?
• It's about the only sweet thing she's done this season!
• Anyway ... back to the nominees ...
• Nicole cried some and is upset because she thought that Memphis wasn't going to nominate her after their pre-nomination talk. She told the others that Memphis did not encourage her to play in the Safety Suite while he's going around telling people that he told her she should play. Her tale is the truth. Eventually she turned back into her little I CAN DO THIS persona.
• Then there's David.
• He says he's more upset about the words Memphis used ... for the second time in a day ... than being nominated. After all, he's 30 years old and a grown man! 
• I found out in a later conversation David was having with Christmas that Memphis told him during nominations that he wanted to sit at the grown-ups table so there you go. And, apparently he made a similar reference about David not being worthy of All Star in the Have Not ceremony.
• That triggered all kinds of inadequacies for David. From what he is saying to others, he has always felt to be an outsider and not a part of any group either due to being Black or just plain old being David.
• From their conversations throughout the house, it sounds like everyone except Memphis think that Memphis was rude, harsh and it was uncalled for.
• So, David cried some, too. Now he magically thinks he can win the Power of Veto and save himself.
• I guess we'll see.
• Meanwhile, Kevin is still acting way too nervous and others are picking up on it. Janelle, Kaysar and Bayleigh had a long talk about Kevin getting on their nerves and being too needy.
• While Da'vonne and Janelle were talking late last night the BB Voice said, "Da'vonne ... please move your hair away from your microphone." Both of them were shocked by the specification in the announcement as they have never heard that kind before.
• I wasn't surprised. Her hair was muffling up the mic as well as making scratchy sounds. I totally understood the direction!
• Ian apparently isn't getting his costume/punishment until after the PoV comp.
• Enzo will be hosting the comp while Memphis, Nicole A, David, Nicole F, Ian and Tyler play.
• I'll let you know when I know.

I haven't a clue but I will win!

If ever a man NEEDED a man-bun

YIKES! Call hair maintenance!

Aww, think unicorns kiddo!

BB22: Live Feeds Nominations Brief - August 14

 

Yes, the feeds were blocked once again -- most of the day for the Safety Suite and the latest was the nominations block.

I called it right. Memphis nominated David and Nicole A.

David is really ticked off. Apparently Memphis was nasty to him during the Have Not announcement. Now he's going on about his "words" during nominations. He says he doesn't know where the hate is coming from.

Hmm.

BB22: Quick Live Feeds Safety Suite Update - August 14

 

Trevor seems worried

This is going to be very short, but not real sweet. The amount of time the feeds were blocked -- nearly all day -- has irked me to a surly level. They blocked the feeds long before the Safety Suite and probably quite a bit afterwards. Anyway, here goes the brief news:

• Christmas won the Safety Suite.
• She saved Ian as her Plus 1.
• Yes, Ian.
• No, I don't know why.
• But she did and I'm glad -- Ian was a likely choice for Memphis' nominations.
• Memphis said something to Christmas about her saving Ian "now" and Nicole F. saving him this morning.
• Apparently that was a reference to Have Not.
• Nicole F apparently stepped in and volunteered to take Ian's place as a Have Not.
• Hmm. 
• At least that connection I can see -- Ian and Nicole F are allies.
• But I have no idea his Christmas connection.
• Memphis is talking to everyone pre-nom.
• I believe, since Ian is off the table, it's likely to be David and Nicole A.
• Memphis doesn't seem to want to do a huge move.
• And, he seems to have a bit of a connection with Kaysar. He might think not getting him out could be better for his own game.
• I'll send out another brief update once the nomination news is in.

Dani girl, are the pipers calling?

Da'vonne is very in with Memphis

BB22: Live Feeds into Friday - August 14

 

Will he still be here after this week?

\

I guess without a live audience, the show being taped and not live isn't a huge deal. But it would have been nice had they mentioned it. What's been happening inside that Big Brother House of Loquacious Loons?

• I can't help but wonder what's going to happen when they have an endurance comp that goes over the hour time limit for the show. Will it air on the feeds? Will we have a forever feeds block? Hmm.
• At least they didn't make us East Coast people wait three hours before starting up the live feeds again!
• Ohhh ... more alcohol? Two days in a row? Now, if they combined both deliveries, it's still a paltry amount. Not that I'm a proponent of getting drunk, but even I am good for two beers. Each delivery only had six beers, yet so many hamsters.
• Our esteemed Have Nots for the week are: Nicole F, Kaysar, Christmas and David. I'm not sure how they were selected. We didn't see anyone volunteering and it's not the order of the first four out of the HoH comp. Maybe Memphis just arbitrarily assigned them. I dunno.
• Memphis got his HOH room and a basket of wrapped and sanitized goodies. His letter from his little boy was tearjerkingly sweet.
• In order to "prove" they're not working together, some of Memphis large alliance plan to compete for the Safety Suite. 
• Like that will mask that they're working together!
• Right now Memphis is talking of targeting Ian, Nicole A or David for eviction.
• Hmm. If that stays, it won't break my heart if David is evicted. Mind you, he's a nice enough guy. However, he never should have been cast in an All-Star season when he technically has never really played the game.
• I do NOT want either Ian or Nicole A gone.
• But, if those targets stay targets for nominations, that would mean Janelle and Kaysar live another week.
• Much of the rest of time before bedtime was them trying to figure out who is with whom.
• I think they need spreadsheets.
• Perhaps a PowerPoint guided display.
• Today should be the second of the three Safety Suite comps and nominations.

Go amuse yourself

Looking Travolta-esque?

I'm tired of every day being Christmas

Meow to all youse

BB22: "Live or Not" Eviction, HOH Show Blog Party - Aug. 13

 

So, here we are at the first eviction. It seems like it will be taped rather than live. On the feeds today Enzo said something about it being taped then played back. If so, they're not leaving much editing time. The feeds were blocked at about 1pm their time. Hmm. I guess we'll see.

If you want to refresh yourself with your blog pool hamster, that list is at this link.

I will be updating this entry with the major happenings as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area ... please join in on the fun! 

Into "previously on." Okay, we know it's Keesha and Kevin on the block. Let's get this going!

Hmm. I think Julie looks a bit frumpy in that dress, but it might be just me. No mention of it being taped. We already had been told there would be no live audience. If taped, they really need to admit it!

Into a segment on the nominees. Cody wants to keep Kevin but wants the house to think it's their idea. Janelle thinks she and Kaysar need Keesha to stay but it has to come from Keesha rather than endanger her game or Kaysar's. Tyler wants to make amends with Bayleigh after their brouhaha during their season. Both want to forget the past.

Nicole A really likes Kevin and wants to go to the end with him. Memphis thinks his alliance with Cody -- the Commission -- needs a total of six. Hmm. Cody tells us if Memphis wants to do it, okay. But if it fails, all on Memphis.

Into a "who is best to keep for my game" segment. Keesha knows she can have Kaysar and Janelle's votes, must find five more. She thinks Taylor, er ... Trevor .. er, Tyler. Cody is looking for side alliances. He has Memphis for one, Enzo for another and wants to take in Da'vonne and Bayleigh with that Enzo alliance. In short, we're getting alliances all over the place. 

Finally, Julie teases us with the eviction after a commercial break. We've only spent a third of the show on this.

To the living room. 

Keesha -- Not get emotional, great to be here, amazing, do what's best for you, energy around me, wish most of you the best of luck

Kevin -- Feels like a tiny comet among supernovas, if you vote to keep me, we can shine bright together.

The votes to evict:

David - Keesha

Nicole A - Keesha

Ian - Keesha

Commercial (looks like the EvelDick Twitter spoiler was spot on)

Nicole F - Keesha

Tyler - Keesha

Christmas - Keesha

Kaysar - Keesha

Bayleigh - Keesha

Da'vonne - Keesha

Janelle - Keesha

Enzo - Keesha

Dani - Keesha

Memphis - Keesha

Good old house vote. I had hoped more from seasoned (or not so much) veterans.

 Keesha has to socially distance from Julie and put on a mask. Julie does NOT have a mask on! Julie mentions Keesha heading home, but I don't think that's where she's going. I think we'll see some sort of Battle Back thing. Hey, it's not like BB hasn't lied to us before in this season. :::cough Online cast interviews on live feeds cough::: and ::: cough live eviction show cough:::

HOH Comp time. Backyard has booths. Big Brother watch party. Show two videos for fans watching, questions. Seven questions. Last HG standing.

The first video shows a Zoom setting. 

Question 1 T or F -- Kaysar, David out

2. Enzo, Dani out

3. Nicole F, Christmas out

Second video

4. Kevin out

5. Janelle, Ian out

6. MEMPHIS WINS HOH

To the living room to talk. Safety Suite will be Brains and Bar theme.

BB22: Live Feeds into Thursday - August 13

 

Anyone for vegan carrot pie?

Don't forget -- tonight's live eviction show is at 8PM ET/PT, not the 9PM of previous years!

So, what's been happening inside that Big Brother House of Domesticated Dolts?

• There's been some waffling as far as the vote for tonight. How shocking is that?
• Janelle and Kaysar still want Keesha to stay because they think she would work with them.
• Cody, Enzo, Nicole F want Keesha out and are trying to steer a house vote.
• Ian, not a part of the house vote mentality per se, told Kevin he would vote for him to stay.
• Which, of course, is actually a vote for Keesha to go!
• But you knew that.
• Bayleigh and Da'vonne feel they're being left out of a lot of the game talk.
• They are.From
• They should get in camp with Kaysar and Janelle!
• My personal opinion for the first few boots are voices which annoy me on the live feeds: Bayleigh, Keesha, Nicole F and sometimes Dani. Their voices are on the shrieky side. Make them stop!
• Kaysar and Janelle remain the biggest targets after tonight's eviction.
• I find it interesting to note that, for the most part, it's the guys leery of Kaysar while the women want Janelle out
• The hamsters did a rather chaotic Facebook Live Q&A about previous hamsters, twists and comps yesterday. If CBS was hoping for more All Access subscriptions, all of them talking at once isn't particularly a good example.
• Janelle is no longer a star. Well, she is. But she's not. The costume is now history.
• While Tyler might be making a mistake by agreeing to all deals brought to him, he actually might be in a good place after all. Heck, if more than one hamster gets his name wrong, they might not be all that aware of him.
• Speaking of wrong names, Cody repeatedly called David "Kevin." 
• You can't help but wonder if he actually meant to put David on the block.
• So far today, the major conversations all seem to be rotating about what they plan to wear for the live show.
• From what Janelle was saying, the earliest that any of them can go home is mid-September. That pretty much guarantees a returning hamster out of the first four or so evictions, some kind of Battle Back.
• I was thinking they might even remain in the house. Remember Julie teasing about more rooms?
• Oh, well. That's it for now. I hope to "see" you this evening!

I think Janelle needs to go

Really? I will stay? Really?

So it's Keesha or Kevin? Which one?

Look! It's Taylor! Um, Trevor.

BB22: Power of Veto Show Blog Party - Aug. 12

 

Are you ready for the first All-Stars Power of Veto comp of the season? No? Um. Well. Tough. 

I'll be updating this entry with the major events as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh this page to get the latest news. As always, the real party is in the comments area. Come join in on the fun!

If you don't know who your hamster is in the blog pool, the list can be found at this post.

Grab your snacks -- I suggest bananas and other fruits -- and let's watch the show!

I'll just twiddle my thumbs through the "Previously on" segment and thank goodness there hasn't been a lot of previous! They're already pointing out old school/new school. Sigh.

If I had my way the phrase "at the end of the day" would become a misdemeanor crime.

Kevin tells us he needs to put his feelings in a box and fight to stay in the game. Cody tells us he wants to work with Kevin ... which, of course, means he wants Keesha out. He does try to pep talk Kevin a bit.

Janelle thinks, although she likes Keesha, that she and Kaysar need to lay low. I personally doubt those two could ever stay low enough to be off the radar. 

Keesha and Cody talk. Cody denies that she's his target and tells her she is just on the block because they hadn't talked much. Keesha knows she's the target. 

Kaysar talks to Da'vonne about how he's from Iraq and first appeared on the show when the US was at war with Iraq. He said he knew people were prejudging him. He tells us he doesn't want his son to grow up in a world like that. A big change from last year!

Tyler tells us he didn't want to jump into a bunch of alliances because that was his downfall last time. Sure enough, he jumps into a whole bunch of deals.

Enzo wants to work with Cody and be in a final two. Cody feels loyal to Nicole F, but more loyal to Enzo.

They haven't had the yard and miss it. Ian says he misses the hammock. Then he mentions that he's on the spectrum. When he was last on the show it bothered him that he did an online search of himself and saw all the comments about autism. So, we have two big conversations tonight -- race and autism. 

Back to game, Kevin is SO worried. He tries to campaign. He tries to get Enzo to promise to save him if he plays and wins veto. Enzo won't commit. He asks Ian if he would back him up in a Houseguest Choice. Ian doesn't commit. And on and on.

Veto player pick time. Cody randomly picks Tyler. Kevin gets HG Choice and goes for Enzo, Keesha gets Ian.

POV Comp time -- Fruits and vegetables with saddles on bananas, BB Peleton machine, 90 reps, stack fruits on back. Stack the most produce in the fastest time. 30 minutes deadline. Cody, then Ian timeout stacking over 90 seconds. Enzo enters his score of 18 with a few minutes left in the deadline. Kevin timed out with his 90 seconds of stacking.

ENZO wins the golden Power of Veto!

Ian tells us that he trusts Nicole F the most in the game -- he's known her for about five years and they're the only two winners in the house. They make a final two deal with a pinky swear. Nicole thinks of him as a back-up plan to Cody. Hmm.

Kevin is hoping Enzo will save him because he chose him to play. When he approaches Enzo, Enzo says he will have to talk to Cody. So now Kevin thinks he will have to do anything he can to convince Cody. Cody is reluctant as he would have to come up with yet another nominee. He isn't receptive but Kevin makes some promises. So, we get some false promises.

Bayleigh and Da'vonne decide to work together. Enzo catches Nicole F and Ian talking game and runs to report to Cody. He tries to tell Cody not to trust them. Cody already doesn't trust Ian, so Cody says that he might have Enzo use the veto and put Ian on the block. Or, so the editing tells us.

Time for the veto meeting! Enzo does NOT use the veto. Keesha and Kevin remain on the block.

BB22: Live Feeds into Wednesday Afternoon - Aug. 12

 

I guess it's winter in California

Did the booze delivery last night make things more interesting last night inside that Big Brother House of Alcohol Antics? Read on ...

• Well, it might have had they been given enough to affect them. Even with Kaysar and anyone else who don't drink, there really wasn't enough to do much at all.
• Six beers and two bottles of wine. 16 people. If two abstain, 14 people. Um. Okay.
• Last night they Have Nots could not only have alcohol, but they could eat real food once again.
• While we saw a lot of the cooking leading up to the feast, BB blocked the feeds while they were feeding. I don't recall them cutting out the feast like that before.
• In other news, Memphis is getting really heated about BB leaving the lights on while he tries to sleep.
• It does seem like the Have Nots will stay in their room until new Have Nots are named. That's the only way there are enough beds.
• And, of course, with no showmances (yay!) this season, people aren't into sharing beds!
• With the exception of Janelle, Kaysar and perhaps David, there seem to be little alliances popping up all over the house -- including Tyler once again over-promising to too many.
• Memphis wants a huge alliance which undoubtedly would crash and burn rather quickly.
• Ian is concerned because back in his own season, he always pretty much knew what was going on. This season, not so much.
• Keesha remains the main target.
• Cody even tried to talk Kaysar into voting her out. Now, Kaysar isn't committing to anyone about his vote. I believe he wants to keep Keesha as he thinks she will work better with him and Janelle. But if it's going to pretty much be one of those ridiculous house votes again, she won't be staying.
• Nicole A. thinks she and Kevin might align with Janelle, Kaysar and Ian.
• The only problem with that is that so many people have all these little side alliances going on. Even Da'vonne talked about regretting jumping into alliances so soon.
• When will they ever learn?
• Unless something drastic happens, the general consensus is that Keesha will go. She hasn't built relationships with many, nor does she really help out much with chores in the house.
• Memphis and David seem to be the cleaner dudes. All the others seem to pitch in with dishes and such.
• Laters!

Nice enough guy, but so not an "All Star"

Ian is being left out of the loop

Maybe it's not winter?

Yes, please do cover up your mouth!

BB22: Live Feeds into Tuesday Evening - August 11

 

Nicole A., make-up by Janelle

You don't know how much I'd love to tell you about how exciting and fascinating the feeds are the past few days. I just can't. We need a brouhaha. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Watching Paint Dry:

• Nicole F. continues to cry on and off.
• Do you know how much she loves and misses Victor?
• While Kaysar has had long intelligent and thought-provoking talks with many, he doesn't seem to be gaining allies in the game.
• Janelle is a target for many just because she's Janelle and they know she can rock comps. Well, at least she could 15 years ago.
• I fear that if either Janelle or Kaysar don't win HOH this week, both will be on the block with Kaysar as the real target.
• Dani thinks Ian uses his autism to further himself in the game.
• I guess she thinks he can turn it on and off, huh?
• Cody is more full of himself than he was in his own season and he doesn't even have a married woman hanging all over him like he did then.
• It's still looking basically like a house vote to evict Keesha.
• I guess we'll see.
• They're all getting separately called into the Diary Room for their COVID tests as I get this posted. Fun! Yeah, right.
• Maybe something exciting will happen tonight!

Meow thinks he's cool

Janelle, make-up by Janelle

Incognito if she ever stops talking

I'm not worthy

BB22: Live Feeds into Monday Evening - 08/10

Monday, Monday ... so boring in the house. However, I'm sure you want to know the latest from inside that Big Brother House of All-Star Aardvarks:

• Well, Nicole A. is feeling better after being violently ill last night. Since it's only people on slop who have gotten sick, I think it must be the slop. Duh.
• It seems the same sheeple mentality we've seen the last several seasons is back in place in this one -- people are already talking about voting with the house.
• Ack.
• Janelle and Kaysar know they are huge targets and have been trying to get a group together.
• I just don't know how successful they will be.
• Enzo did NOT use the veto, so it's still Keesha and Kevin on the block.
• And it seems that Keesha is the "house target."
  
• I'd go into much more but I'm seriously beat tonight.
• My apologies.
• Oh. It's Kaysar's 40th birthday today.
• Woot woot

Memphis is not a fan of the cold

Hair of the dog?

Rehearsing his begging

He needs to be knocked down a peg or three

BB22: Live Feeds into Monday - 08/10

 

Reunited and it feels so good

What's been happening inside that Big Brother House of Malcontented Mice?

• As it was Sunday, it was basically a down time day for them -- no comps to do, no ceremonies and it's been a few seasons since they even had the photo booth on Sunday.
• But they did get the yard!
• And, who knows how long they had it and didn't notice.
• While we were busy watching the very delayed televised episode here on the East Coast last night, it was starting to get dark there.
• A group was gathered in the kitchen and Tyler happened to notice new lights in the yard through the sliding glass doors.
• He ran for the door and, sure enough, it opened. Heck they might have gone all day with access to the yard and not know it!
• Silly hamsters.
• In other news, Janelle and Kaysar remain the biggest targets for most of the others.
• Dani thinks that Ian is using his autism as an advantage in the game.
• Now, I like how she does in comps and her intuition in the game, but the mean girl remains the mean girl almost like the queen remains the queen.
• While my own personal favorite to watch players are Ian, Janelle and Kaysar, I'd have to say if I were IN the house instead of WATCHING them, those three would be my targets as well. 
• You wouldn't have a lick o' sense if you let them get so one of them is in the final two with you! 
• Enzo seems to be playing much better so far this season than he did in his own. I think he has more on the ball than Cody and is becoming a bit endearing and entertaining to the others. He keeps it up and that Jersey Meow may be a contendor.
• Nicole A. is the latest victim of the Have Not Ills -- rather violently ill from the slop and possibly the stress. It's high time they stopped that nasty stuff.
• I long for the return of food comps which used to play out live on the feeds and had them earning different foodstuffs. They could rid themselves of the slop and work the rest of Have Not in with some kind of food comp.
• All of a sudden I have a hankering for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. What's up with that?
• Nicole F continues to alienate me as she worms her way in with Cody.
• As it stands, it still looks like Enzo will not use the veto in today's ceremony, leaving Keesha and Kevin on the block.
• Although Kevin, to me, has been the most problematic in the handling of this, it looks like it will be Keesha heading out the door.
• Kevin needs to stop crying. His lack of self-esteem makes Nicole A. look like a proud leader of troops in last season.
• But, I'm thinking that even if one leaves, they're not really gone this season. Julie mentioned extra rooms. That's rooms with an 's'. Plus, with all the work to get them there during the pandemic, it would probably best to just keep them. I expect some sort of comeback or battle back twist ahead.

I didn't come here just to go home

Not on anyone's radar

Oh! Oh! Yard seating space!

Life of luxury lies ahead

 

The many hairstyles of Keesha

BB22: Nominations Show Blog Party - Sunday 8/09

 

Are we ready for the show? After all, we've had a ridiculous delay due to GOLF, of all things. Doesn't my Golf cable television channel cover that? Sheesh! If you missed the blog pool match-ups so skillfully randomly assigned by SueGee, you can check them out at this here link.

Tonight's episode is the nominations. As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll be updating this post with the major happenings. Refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area -- feel free to join in on the fun!

Apparently even the 10pm scheduled start is still too early as 60 Minutes is still on. It doesn't look much longer, but sheesh. Okay, 60 Minutes ended at 10:07pm.

Finally ... recap, recap ...

Have Nots are Ian, Nicole A., Kevin and Memphis. We get a tease about the Safety Suite and the issues with the locked Have Not Room door.

Cody thinks he needed to win this HoH, apparently he thinks he's a huge target. They explore the house. Ian tells us he wanted to win the HoH because he was one of only two winners in the house. Janelle thinks she can work with Kaysar. NicoleA.  is starstruck as is Da'vonne. Meow Meow is happy. Nicole F cries in her first Diary Room because "Da'vone is there and she changed my life." Heh. Da'vonne recalls being backstabbed by Nicole F. 

Kaysar and David talk, Kaysar wants to connect in a different way with every other hamster. 

Nicole F already hits Cody up to be ride or die. Cody tells us he trusts her. Cody thinks he might nominate Keesha because he doesn't know her. Nicole tells him she can form a girls alliance and report back to him. He thinks that Janelle and Kaysar are both big threats, especially together.

Safety Suite time -- all are issued VIP passes, HoH can't enter during his/her reign. Only can be used once. Winner gets to save someone else but that second person  gets a punishment as well. It's worrying to many as they don't know what Cody will do.

An air horn goes off and they have an hour. They would need to scan their VIP pass to get in. Enzo doesn't go. He thinks the Jersey boys will stick together. No one wants to be first in the room. Janelle doesn't feel safe, neither does Keesha. Kaysar talks to Cody. Cody tells him that he would say yes to everyone at this time. Kaysar sees red flags. 

Janelle talks to Cody. She raises flags to him which makes her think that he already has some ideas. She's not buying what he's selling. Memphis talks to him and gets a loyalty vibe. Memphis says Janelle scares him. Dani doesn't know if she should play or not. 

Kaysar goes in the Safety Suite. Janelle goes in. Kaysar is in a room by himself as the BB DJ, listen to a remix, recreate the song by hitting buttons, right results in shortest amount of time. Named Don't Skip a Beat. It's a synthesized version of Twinkle Twinkly Little Star. He finally gets it. Janelle is up next. She had problems with it, Kausar 7.55 minutes Janelle 16.35. Kaysar chooses Janelle as his Plus One.

Janelle will have a punishment, but neither Janelle nor Kaysar can be nominated. Good. Cody was going to nominate them. Heh.

Cody and Nicole F are talking. He's thinking Kevin as he didn't have a chance to click with. He doesn't think he can work with Keesha. 

Janelle gets her costume punishment -- she's the BB All Star Mascot, dressed as a yellow smiling shining star. 

Kevin is almost in tears, scared to talk to Cody. My gosh, his self-esteem is totally gone with the wind. He tells Cody that he (Cody) is perfect. Cody consoles him and tells him he's good. Oh, gee. It made Cody feel horrible. He tells us he needs to separate his emotions from the game.

Time for the nominations ceremony. He nominates Keesha, then Kevin. He says he doesn't want them to take it personal, hard to form relationships so early, go for the veto. 

BB22: PGA Tournament Delays East Coast Episode - 08/09

As Julie mentioned in the show's closing Wednesday, some areas may have the Sunday show on a delay. Well, that seems to be all of the East Coast. Due to the PGA tournament, Big Brother isn't even scheduled until 10pm EDT. I'm assuming that PDT should be the normal time; not sure of Mountain and Central. Check your local listings!

I will have a blog party post up for the 10pm EDT show as it's scheduled here.

They still don't have the yard.

 

BB22: Live Feeds into Sunday - 8/09

Intelligent and intriguing conversation

So, what's been happening inside that Big Brother House of A Season Sans Shownances?

• By the way, I am loving no showmances and the older crowd. Although these hamsters have played the game before and maybe got it out of their systems, I'm finding many of the non-game conversations less vapid and some truly intriguing.
• This show advertises itself as a "social experiment" but over the years has concentrated more on getting good-looking young model types or characters. This season we have many in the house thankful that they didn't have to do a bathing suit photo. Good.
• One really worthy conversation took place between Kaysar and Ian. It was a long one on how the brain works when a person is autistic or on the spectrum. Kaysar said the other day he was on the spectrum. Ian, probably due to the stress and no yard, is really stimming hard the past few days. Kaysar missed his calling as a therapist.
• During that long conversation, BB was sometimes cutting the feed. I think it had more to do with whatever was on the other two cameras than the Ian/Kaysar talk.
• Now, there's something off the feeds happening that may affect the house this season and I think I'm seeing signs it has. 
• Before the season started, I posted a link to an article about Derrick and Dan supposedly off the show due to Nicole F. saying they were pre-game strategizing.
• That might be a bit off. 
• It seems that it might be Nicole F. pre-game or even off-game strategizing with Derrick to help Cody through the game. And, it seems like Dan is involved as well. Janelle even mentioned something that Dan said to her. Hmm.
• Whatever is going on, it's not good for Janelle, Kayser, Keesha, Kevin, Da'vonne or even Tyler or Bayleigh.
• Oh, well. Out of my control but I'll keep watching the bloodbath called Twitter for the skinny on it.
• Meanwhile, back in the house ... as I mentioned in my last update, Enzo won the Power of Veto.
• He doesn't plan on using it but did mention to Cody that they could blindside Tyler.
• Cody's sights seem to be set on Keesha leaving.
• Just from the conversations of many, it seems like it will be Keesha.
• To me, although her voice on the live feeds makes me cringe and turn down the volume, it's a shame. She's a good competitor and we barely have seen her in action.
• In the name-calling department, I mentioned in another update that Keesha thought Tyler was Taylor or Trevor. Now Cody keeps calling David Kevin. I can only wonder whether he meant to put Kevin or "Not Really Kevin" on the block.
• More seriously, I think he does know which one he nominated.
• They should get the yard sometime today.
• I see no kerfuffles or brouhahas on the horizon. BB can probably give them back the knives.

I used to like Dani better

Get it together, Kevin!

Is rumored pre-gaming going to hurt?

Nicole misses the night owls

It could be bye-bye Keesha

BB22" Power of Veto Winner Update

Yes, we have a winner!

Showing off the bling.

Oh my. Enzo won a comp. Chances are that he will not save Keesha. He probably won't use it at all, but definitely not on Keesha.

BB22: Live Feeds Brief into Saturday Night - 8/08

 

Waiting on a comp

They're still waiting on the Power of Veto comp to start. They were told 10pm (their time) start. Which, of course, would be 1am for me! Gah. They aren't allowed to nap. But they aren't the boss of me!

• The Have Not people seem to be sick Ian was vomiting and Nicole feels horrible. Memphis is ill to a lesser extent. Kevin was already sick enough due to being on the block.
• Keesha was calling Tyler "Taylor." When Janelle told her that wasn't his name, she asked if it was Trevor.
• The veto players are (or will be): Cody, Keesha, Kevin with Ian, Enzo and Tyler being picked. 
• Oh, wait ... at 10:27pm ET it went to adoptable pets which they use for long feed blocks such as comps. Maybe the 10pm was ET. But, still -- the comps can last hours. I'll post in the morning!
