'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Since POV Ceremony 7/24


As pictured in my screen cap in my last entry, Jase will sit in the nomination chair alongside Will on Thursday night.

George did indeed save his own butt with the POV. Jase was put up in his place.

Here are the events from the House of Falling Cards:

  • The house is in a somber mood. Jase apparently acted out, threw a fire extinguisher, called Marcellas out and more when nominated.
  • Will, Mike and Jase tried to figure out the least damage they could do to get a penalty nomination.
  • Janelle told Marcellas it was just an emotional outburst Jase had taken out on him. Marcellas is shaking and quivering... and mad.
  • Danielle sweet-talked Jase and made it sound like she's the most compassionate and considerate woman in the world. [Editor's note: Work it, Danielle!]
  • Jase feels he was backdoored even though Danielle and Mike both tried to explain a backdoor is a planned event and this wasn't planned.
  • One of the tarantulas is molting and shedding its skin. [Editor's note: Well, I think that's important!]
  • James fussed and moaned about being put in the position to take the heat. [Editor's note: Well, you wanted HOH, right?]
  • Jase wants to go home. Will wants to go home. Mike says he's in an alliance with Both Want To Leave.
  • Jase knows the plan was to save Will when it was Will and George. He's sure he's the target and wants to give up playing.
  • George tried to calm Jase down and pep talk him a bit, but when Jase asked him if he'd vote for him to stay, he wouldn't commit.
  • Mike is trying to work (or slime) his way into the S6 alliance, but they don't trust him. They didn't tell him that, of course.
  • Jase and Kaysar talked and claimed mutual respect. Jase told him if he stayed, he'd target the floaters. [Editor's note: It's beginning to sound like a mantra -- ohhhmmm, targetthefloaters, ohhhmmm.]
  • Both Jase and Kaysar said their mothers told them not to get involved with Dr. Will.
  • Jase told Kaysar that Janelle should go from S6... and he could take her place! [@@]
  • Jase asked Erika for her vote and she refused to commit.
  • Kaysar told George he now has respect for him and knows he's there to play the game. [@@ - at Kaysar now. I mean, I like the guy okay, but...! There's no reason to treat George like he's stupid. He's odd. He's goofy. He's out of his element. But I don't think he's dumb. Should he be treated like some sort of puppy dog?]
  • As he complimented him, Kaysar also pried George for info. James and Kaysar try to take George into their web. George played along, but is he really?
  • James doesn't think George is evil anymore. So, maybe it was an honest attempt to reach out to him. But... he is a floater.
  • James, Kaysar, Erika and Marcellas talked about how violent and scary Jase was when nominated. Erika said she felt safe because he wouldn't go after a woman. Earlier, George had asked Kaysar and James if Jase really did it or did he do it for TV. Me? I think a mix of both.
  • Jase trashtalked Will to Diane and Danielle in an effort to get their votes.
  • Jase also did a shout-out to his mother telling her she was right.
  • Jase feels totally betrayed by James because they had a deal.
  • Jase thinks that Will manipulated all of the events and sucked him into Chilltown just so he would be a target.
  • Things have calmed down now to the point where the houseguests keep singing Cumbaya. For some odd reason, the feeds aren't blocking on that song. They should. It's creeping me out.

Later!

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Update - POV Ceremony Confirmed


<--- The feeds came back on to Will and Jase sitting in the nomination chairs. Marcellas confirmed it. Jase is on the block with Will. It's a somber house. I'll update a bit later this evening once they give me fodder to write up!

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


The new nomination in lieu of Chicken George is... Mike Boogie... no, Jase...

Okay, the feeds were blocked a while and just returned and as I type this, it's still not certain. So, I'll keep blabbing along here until one of the houseguests slips up and definitely names the new nomination.

So, here I am typing. It sounds like Jase could actually be up on the block from what James is saying. He's worried that the floaters are going to come after them. Whoever it is, they told him. Hmmm... the talk is not to split Chilltown, but get the floaters against them (Chilltown). The talk is of sending Jase home, so it seems that's the case.

Ah, now James is saying that Jase voided the deal in the first place.

I'm going to go with the nominees are: Jase and Will, with the target being Jase.

If I'm wrong, I'll retract if I hear different. But they're talking the certain votes to remove Jase, so I'll go with it.

Update added 4:20 PM ET -- It seems the POV Ceremony has not taken place. We had extended flame/clouds and the talk above. Apparently, James told Mike Boogie that he was putting up Jase. However, the actual ceremony might be going on now. I'll say I predict Jase at this time, but it's not done and over with until the Chicken sings. Or something like that. I'll keep you updated.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Up All Night Sun-Mon


<--- A bald Chicken George, now looking more than ever the part of a janitor, thinks about 101 Things You Can Do With Slop. He now realizes the move he made to win the Power of Veto isn't going to be easy. Meanwhile, Danielle's been helpful to him by encouraging him to go on. And, then there's Howie... "Oh, Georgie! You can do it, Georgie! You're a Jedi!"

Is Big Brother ever going to make these people sleep at night? This season is the worst yet in regard to the houseguests staying up until dawn! Other years, the producers enforced a lights out time. If they don't do something soon, the HG will all be sleepwalking through the competitions. Last night was a night of meetings and strategies in the Big Brother House of Boisterous Buffoons and Flittering Floaters:

  • Will and Mike had an extended meeting with James and Kaysar in the HOH room (screen cap below). They pushed for Marcellas to be put on the block... like Janelle will let that happen! Will/Mike claims they want to work with S6, not against them. They want the floaters targeted. It seemed like they were talking forever, but not really saying much. They tried prying for information on how cohesive S6 is, but Kaysar and James played the meeting fairly well. Will the push for the Marcellas boot work? Will he be the target and not another member of Chilltown? I guess we'll see.
  • Will/Mike said they would not put up Kaysar or James if they get HOH.
  • Outside of the room later, both groups said they didn't really trust the other group. Good. They shouldn't.
  • Will says he still wants to go home before sequester. If, by chance, it's him and Mike on the block, he will campaign for Mike to stay in the house.
  • Mike Boogie told Kaysar/James that Marcellas was talking about them (S6 males, not Janelle) as a threat.
  • Will said he made a deal with the producers that he'd only be on the show if Mike Boogie was on it. [Editor's note: And I'd like to see him stuck on the show with Mike Boogie gone!]
  • Mike Boogie said that he wants to join forces with the S6 Players if Will goes home this week. [Editor's note: @@ Sure, he does!]
  • When Howie stopped by the room, Will asked him if he was ready to go on the block. Howie faltered for a moment, then smiled.
  • When the meeting ended, James and Kaysar told Janelle that Chilltown wants Marcellas out. No way, she insisted.
  • Now Kaysar is changing his floater tune and saying a Chilltown must go.
  • Marcellas pushed Janelle and James to put Jase on the block, as did Danielle to a lesser extent. Erika and Diane remained true floaters, telling James that they'll abide by his choice (as long as it's not them). Erika admitted to "leaning towards Jase" but that was all she'd say.
  • Kaysar thinks Marcellas is a loose cannon in the game and seems to be not overly thrilled that Janelle is so close to him.
  • James wants to put up Mike Boogie while the floaters and Janelle make the case for Jase. James doesn't seem to be entertaining the notion of Jase going up at all. Not at all. [Editor's note: Can you say pre-show alliance? I thought you could!]
  • Meanwhile, at the pool, Jase is pretty confident thant Mike Boogie will go on the block, not himself. [Editor's note: I think I'm going to call the Jase/James alliance the SS -- Slimy Snakes!]
  • Danielle and Diane seem to be successfully playing both sides. How long before they're called out on it?
  • Marcellas tells all he knows to Danielle. [Editor's note: Once again, I feel I need to mention that Danielle is the one to watch in this game. Yeah, she screwed up the first week, but I think right now she's the smartest player in the game.]
  • Diane fussed that S6 never gets her involved in conversations. [Editor's note: Well, duh! There's a reason, Mrs. Smith!]
  • For a while, James entertained the idea of putting up Erika or Marcellas.
  • No one, not Chilltown or S6, has a grasp on Erika. That's not so good for her because neither group trusts her. They feel she's a wild card.
  • Will keeps singing so BB will yell at him (and block the feeds).
  • James is still on his "the producers rigged this game" kick.
  • At one point when Howie entered the HOH room, he was told they decided to break up the Jedi Alliance and put them both on the block. Once again, it took him a moment to get it and laugh.
  • Mike Boogie tried to sell his Evict Marcellas (or even Jase) Plan to Howie, then ran and reported back to Will.
  • S6 think they have the votes to evict Mike Boogie - their three votes, Erika and Danielle. They won't ask Marcellas because he'd just rant that he wants Jase on the block.
  • S6 keeps going back and forth between Jase and Boogie being put up in George's place. The final decision is Mike. No, wait... Jase. No, Mike. [Editor's note: I personally don't think Jase will go up as I feel there is indeed some sort of pre-show agreement or alliance with James. It's his decision at the end and he'll choose Mike Boogie, I say. If it wouldn't alienate Janelle, I think he'd put up Marcellas. But it's too early in the game to blow his cover with S6.]

All are now sleeping. The POV Meeting should be later today and the suspense will be over.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Sunday 7/23


We needed this, we really did. The show was lacking something, but I couldn't put my finger on it.

And, there it was. George as the POV winner to take himself off the block and force James into nominating a non-safe choice. Now, that's finger-lickin' good chicken!

George hasn't committed to removing himself from the block on an official basis, mind you. The Power of Veto Ceremony hasn't been held yet. But, trust me, George may be a clown, but he's no fool. He won't pull a Marcellas.

The POV shake-up has rattled the house. I mean, George? Win something? Who woulda thunk it, eh? Here are today's bits and pieces of the live feeds events in the House of Wannabe Chicken Pluckers:


  • Danielle started to say something about James calling her pre-season and we got flame/clouds (with bad music). I think they've got something going on betwixt 'em.
  • Mike Boogie also talked to James pre-season. Both said he called them. The plot thickens.
  • George is worried that his hair won't grow back in and he'll be really bald. He asked about the hair regrowth products. [Editor's note: This is someone who's practically killed his hair with dye over the last several years -- yellow, green.]
  • George looks so much older this season than he does in my memories of Season 1. Kind of sad. Oh, no! I probably look older,too! EEK.
  • Danielle, Howie and even Mike Boogie tried to peptalk George.
  • Mike Boogie and Will are very worried that Mike will be put on the block in George's place.
  • Will messed around hanging off the spiral staircase until the Voice of BB spoke: "Will, no climbing!" A few minutes later, BB: "Hey! I said to knock that off, Will!" [Editor's note: I love it when the BB voice gets away from its regular "put your microphone on" taped announcements.]
  • Marcellas predicted than no one will escape nomination this season.
  • Janelle told Marcellas that Howie slept with Jennifer in sequester last season. "Oh, and don't tell anyone!" [Editor's note: Don't tell anyone except the entire Internet, that is. @@ - deserves the Eye Roll 1st Appearance of this entry.]
  • Will saved a cricket in the swimming pool and was thrilled with his good deed. "I did something NICE! Look! Me! I did something NICE!"
  • James complained that the game is fixed. Again. And still.
  • Marcellas, Jase and Mike Boogie were called to the Diary Room at the same time. Hmmm... rapping. Well, there's a spoiler for you! They will do a Diary Room Rap. @@
  • Will had a long talk with Janelle, working his agenda. He told her how much he misses his patients, his practice, his girlfriend, etc. Oh, he wants to go home! Or... does he? Is it an act?
  • Diane and Howie plan to have a fake marriage, with the vows to be taken tonight.
  • Will reported back to Mike (and Jase) that Janelle's not as dumb as she looks and he got nothing from her. Heh. Score one for the Buxom Blonde!
  • Will wondered if James and Marcellas have a secret alliance. [Editor's note: @@ - oil and water, those two! But... it would be perfect, wouldn't it?]

That's the skinny from today so far!
