'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Digest - Saturday 7/22

Gee, shouldn't the HOH be just a wee bit happier?

What's with the sour puss on James?

Has his own Grand Plan fallen through the cracks?

Yup.

Here are the somewhat late (I apologize) events of the day in that Big Brother House of Chicken Cluckers and Bitter Boys:
  • For a change, the houseguests slept in. Oh, wait! They do that everyday. I miss Jack getting up by 7 their time that one season. Of course, last night was the Alcohol Blow Out, so I expected them to be up by the crack of 10.
  • The S6 Players are intent on getting one of their own in the Final Two and the rest in sequester to swing the vote.
  • Janelle thought it was great that James called Chicken George out for spying in the noms ceremony, but Kaysar thought it was too early to play strong moves.
  • Many of the houseguests were mad about Danielle getting so drunk last night because she made too much noise.
  • Mike Boogie whined, moaned and fussed that his ear hurt. He wanted to go to the Diary Room and get medical attention. Then he wasn't happy with their medical attention.
  • Will told Boogie he doesn't care if he stays or not this week. After he left, Mike looked in a camera and promised he'd get him to stay. [Editor's note: So, is this an act for camera time? What do you think?]
  • Then there was a very long period of blocked feeds -- flame/clouds for nearly three hours. And... George and Kaysar are um... bald. Yeah, you heard me.
  • And George is wearing the POV necklace. Oh, my! However could that happen?
  • James and Marcellas fussed that the veto comp was rigged for George to win. [Editor's note: And, that's been the broken record ever since, too.]
  • Marcellas wants James to put up another Chilltown in George's place. He also said he was holding back tears while shaving Kaysar's head.
  • James thinks that BB screwed with his plan on purpose. And on and on. And on. He thinks BB is manipulating the comps to balance the power in the house.
  • The veto comp itself does sound sort of made for George -- it was a dare kind of event. It had to do with eating a bowl of Slop in five minutes, being painted blue, shaving heads and the final kicker which won it for George was agreeing to be on the BB Slop Diet for 60 days. No one else would agree, so he got the POV.
  • Jase is blue-green, but not bald. Will is neither blue-green, nor bald.
  • James demanded to talk to the producers and the legal team. Apparently, the HOH (James, at least) cannot compete next week in some sort of new twist. George can't compete for veto next week, but can compete for HOH -- which James thinks may be a belly-flop contest. Bitter boy, bitter.
  • Those who played for veto were George, Jase, Kaysar, Will, Mike and James. [Editor's note: I notice that this POV was geared to the men as chances are no women would shave their heads. Should I call CBS legal?]
  • Some houseguests want to try to talk George into not using the veto. [Editor's note: @@ Eyeroll for sure! He's goofy, but he's not stupid!]
  • George told Jase he's got to use it, no way would he not use it to save himself.
  • Now Kaysar's complaining of a sore ear. First Howie, then Mike, now Kaysar.
  • Janelle and Marcellas want James to put up Jase. He told them he promised him he wouldn't put him up this week. They don't care.
  • James said they should keep George longer now just to make him suffer eating slop.
  • James was taken out in question 5 and can't compete for either HOH or POV. He feels he's completely vulnerable... and it's so UNFAIR!
  • Most of the others are giving George some credit for stepping up to the plate and actually going for something.
  • Marcellas, though not happy, said it wasn't set up for George. It was set up for whoever would do the most to win. George was the one.
  • Kaysar was taken for medical care and hasn't returned yet.
  • Will and Mike are taking the George POV win better than the S6 Players even though it means most likely one of them will be evicted.
  • I believe I heard Mike say Kaysar can't compete for POV next week, either.
  • James is going on about the show being rigged. I've heard all of it ever since the flame/clouds ended. Enough.

That's where we stand as I get this posted.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Bulletin - POV Winner 7/22

George won the POV. Now we're talking an interesting week!

A full feeds report will be posted later tonight. Please stop back.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Overnight Into Saturday 7/22


Please center your microphones and get ready for the latest happenings, schemes and weird moves in that Big Brother House of the Unbalanced Oddities...

Did James make the right nominations? Does Will really want to go home? Is George the actual target this week? And... why George, of all people? Is James really in a pre-show alliance with Will and Mike? So many questions and so few clear-cut answers. I think these folks are all lying to each other, including members of their own alleged alliances. Here are the overnight goodies:
  • James told Will and Diane of times he caught George spying on him, then scurrying away.
  • The current S6 Players plan is to keep Will, evict George.
  • James thinks the floaters are aligning with Chilltown.
  • The general concensus is that Will will go home Week 5 just prior to sequester unless there is a big twist. He was supposedly promised one by the producers.
  • Marcellas and Danielle think Jase is acting up now like he did on his own season.
  • Janelle and Kaysar shared bad feelings they have about Jase. [Editor's note: Seems contagious, huh? Apparently he went off after the nominations when the feeds were blocked -- accusing James of "throwing him under the bus."]
  • So obviously a choice to stir the house up, BB gave the houseguests a huge amount of alcohol for the evening.
  • Will complained that they should have given them cheaper booze and something fancy to go with the feast on Saturday. [Editor's note: Will complains so much this season that he makes Marcellas look appreciative!]
  • Will said that the Diary Room asked him about Mr. & Mrs. Smith (alleged Jase, Diane and Alison alliance) and he was clueless. Jase piped in that he was clueless about it, too.
  • George thinks he's going home. Howie tried to peptalk him to make him feel better.
  • James told Janelle and Howie that if George wins veto, he has to confuse him into "pulling a Marcellas" and not saving himself.
  • Chicken George tried to peptalk Howie into going for the win this season. He also told him to go along with who he has to in the beginning, but "watch the snake, he'll turn around and bite you." [Editor's note: I think he was referring to James, but he didn't say the name.]
  • James is upset that Chilltown is talking of winning the POV and saving Will when he's already gathered more than enough votes to send George home.
  • James told Danielle that the Chilltown truce is with him, not the S6 Players on the whole.
  • James and Danielle talked about "having an understanding" since they met at the wrap party last year. [Editor's note: Okay, now this is just getting redundant. How many secret pre-season alliances are in the house this year?] Danielle said she doesn't have to be that bad because she has him. A Danielle quote: "Who's Danielle's Dark Side? James." [Cue organ music here.]
  • Erika told James he would have done well on Survivor - "You look like Aras who I cast..." Flame/clouds. She's working for a casting company.
  • Drinking and more drinking.
  • Marcellas went up to the HOH room to hide. He says things blow up whenever there's alcohol and he doesn't want to be in the line of fire.
  • Jase became obnoxious with the alcohol influence -- yelling and screaming.
  • Jase screamed to a camera that America's choice was a "bar whore."
  • The alcohol-induced houseguests started rapping thanks to Mike Boogie. Jase stopped calling Janelle names when she joined them.
  • Danielle seemed particularly inebriated and was upset when Chilltown decided to go to bed.
  • Danielle told Howie that if she won HOH she wouldn't put up any of the S6 Players. [Editor's note: She's drunk, but she's lying, too. She's playing both major alliances.]
  • Danielle was the last one up, milling about talking to herself... perhaps even sneaking a cigarette behind the couch.

And there you go. Kaysar is the smart one of this crew, for sure. By not drinking, he can observe all the behaviors and lies the drunken houseguests are displaying and incorporate them into his own personal strategy.

The POV Comp should be later today, but I might not get a chance to post about it until the evening. See you then!

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


<--- Marcellas and Janelle share a tender moment.

Aww.

Touching, isn't it?

Today's been a bit of an odd day in the Big Brother House of Bamboozlement. They slept in and were awakened in time for a lockdown leading into the food comp (see two entries back). There were several periods of flame/clouds and a very extended period of such (nearly two hours) as they did the nomination ceremony.

I'm sure the noms didn't take anywhere near that long and the feeds were blocked so that the news wouldn't get out as quickly. Of course, once they returned, it was only a few minutes until we heard references as to the noms. Prior to the nomination, nothing too much really happened strategy-wise. So, I'm going to pick up on the events since the feeds returned:

  • Will seems happy that he's nominated, while George is taking it a lot quieter. Remember, Will doesn't want to be in the house come time for sequester.
  • Will joked about Howie being backdoored this week and scared the Jedi Warrior.
  • From what Mike said, it sounds like James mentioned George spying on people when he nominated him.
  • Jase thinks James wants to "throw him under the bus."
  • Will claims he doesn't want the POV used and, if he wins it, he won't use it to save himself.
  • Marcellas fussed to Janelle about his key being so near the end of the drawing.
  • Jase told Mike Boogie and Will that Danielle is a snake in the grass. [Editor's note: Coming from three snakes in grass? Okay...]
  • Supposedly the reason behind George and Will is to make George step up and play the game instead of playing the janitor or Will to get his wish to go home before sequester.
  • Janelle and Marcellas wish Mike Boogie was on the block instead of Will. [Editor's note: So do I! Mike is the annoying leader of Chilltown!]
  • James said that Howie's key was last merely for effect. [Editor's note: And Marcellas was whining? Howie probably freaked!]

That's pretty much where we're standing at the moment.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Bulletin - Nominations


After a few hours of flames... yes, hours... it looks like it's Chicken George and Will up on the block.

A full feeds update will be posted later tonight. We've had severe thunderstorms and power outages through this area.

And, then, flame/clouds for a few hours.
