'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Overnight Into Wednesday 8/16

















Once again, we have the Up All Night Crew in the house. Y'see, they don't need Kaysar around to be up until dawn their time - which happens to be past 9 AM from here. Sheesh. Darn vampires! So, while I posted the last entry in the wee hours, even more went on!

Here's the scoop to catch up on the overnight events from that Big Brother House of Hoodoo The Voodoo As Good As Woogie Do:

  • Janelle told Will that she felt pressured to put up Marcellas. [Editor's note: Um, well... that was the point! She was pressured and she caved into it. End of story, Janelle. You've been had!] Will smooth-talked her and worked his ways to steer her into thinking it was all in her best interest.
  • Danielle seemed to get herself quite drunk. Marcellas was right - she shouldn't drink. Danielle depends on her wits and insight; alcohol affects those aspects.
  • Will told Janelle that while he trusts Erika, Chill Town had a pre-season "thing" with Marcellas and Marcellas jumped ship immediately once in the house. He claims that shows how disloyal Marcellas is.
  • Janelle thinks Will will be safe next week even if he goes on the block.
  • Howie at times has strokes of brilliance and insight, which sort of makes one wonder if the Dumb Howie is all an act. He told HG this: "Will has me convinced that if I win HOH next week I should put myself up on the block." He sees what's going on with the PuppetMaster and James, while Janelle is so gullible with both of them.
  • Danielle kept telling the cameras what a great actor she is. [Editor's note: Maybe she's exaggerating the drunken bit? I dunno. I predict no Emmy and certainly no Oscar.]
  • In her camera confidentials (as opposed to Diary Room - she's doing this for the Internet), Danielle said her only allegiance is with the Legion of Doom and she's great. [Editor's note: @@ I have to give her an eyeroll! She knows how the LOD falls apart and right now Will's running circles around her gameplay. She's a very capable gameplayer, but she's made a few bad decisions in strategy with which she's now burdened.]
  • The HG ate as late as they could as today (Wed.) marks their one day of BB Slop this week. [Editor's note: You'd think they think they'll starve in one day the way they ate!]
  • Janelle told James she knew she shouldn't have put Marcellas on the block. James told her she cannot trust her "beloved doc." He goes on to tell her that they have to stop supporting Chill Town after this week as CT are not on their (S6) side. [Editor's note: This may sound confusing, but I think I know what's going on here. James is really with the LOD which includes CT. But... he wants to convince Janelle he's really on HER side, then backstab her once she's fallen for his act. While he's trashtalking Woogie, it's all part of his scheme and Woogie is in on it all, as is Danielle.]
  • James told Janelle that Erika and Mike Boogie were dating before the show.
  • James confronted Erika about the previous relationship with Boogie and she denied it. She wanted to know where he got the information. James told her he feels like both of them lied to him. [Editor's note: Erika holds her cards very close at times. While it sometimes seems she's not playing the game, she is. I don't think she trusts James and I doubt she'll ever give him any more information than is necessary.]
  • Will and Janelle talked - she's waffling on voting out Marcellas. He acted like he's okay with it, but kept his smooth-talking going. He asked her if she wanted him to wake up Mike to tell him that she's voting out Erika. [Editor's note: We know she can't vote as she's HOH - it's more what she WANTS the others to do rather than her personal vote.]
  • Will wants to do The Amazing Race with Janelle. He thinks that CBS owes him favors for being on the show... or something.
  • In a camera confidential to the Internet, Will told us he's trying to make this all good for TV and he loves his girlfriend Erin. He said he wants this season to be the best Big Brother ever.
  • Erika told Howie she had no intentions of playing the game "mean." She said she's a loyal person and doesn't backstab. [Editor's note: But, of course, she didn't tell him to whom she's loyal! Bwahaha!]
  • Howie called Will "Dr. Malicious." He's onto him, but will it do any good this late in the game?
  • Howie started being really disgusting to break up a Janelle/Will talk. He tends to revert to his inner 12-year-old boy at times. He also mooned the cameras. My eyes! My eyes!
  • Will told Janelle and Howie he can get them jobs in pharmaceutical sales (what April does!). Interesting - Mike offers restaurant jobs, Will offers drug sales (legal ones). I wonder if either could offer me a job writing stuff! Heh.
  • Janelle told Will, "Of course we trust you." Then she gave the camera a big wink. Is she onto him?
  • Will told Janelle that Erika will honor the deal to put up Danielle, but he thinks she will throw HOH so as not to even deal with the noms.
  • Will also told her that he had a deal with Kaysar and that he's only telling her now because Kaysar is gone. [Editor's note: And to get her to trust him!]
  • Alone together, Howie told Janelle that Will is just twisting things around to get her to believe him and to do what he wants her to do. Janelle said she's angry about what happened tonight. [Editor's note: I'm assuming she means the HOH meeting with CT/S6 and her change of heart to have Marcellas voted out.]
  • Howie and Janelle stayed up just about all night discussing evicting Erika. Howie thinks she's backstabbed them and won't feel bad at all betraying her. [Editor's note: Hmmm... they have to realize that they're not going to have the numbers. They know the rest of the house is for a Marcellas ouster with Danielle and George as wildcards (as far as they know).
  • Janelle had an epiphany - "Howie, do you think Will is hanging out with us just so he doesn't get voted out?" D'oh!
  • Howie and Janelle drilled each other with questions in anticipation of the HOH comp tomorrow.

As it stands now as I post this, Danielle and Marcellas are up. Marcellas is still trying to get her vote to stay. He thinks he has her, George, James and perhaps Howie as "Janelle is getting rid of Erika." She just kept brushing her teeth and didn't seem to really commit to anything.

There have been no more clues for the Coup d'Etat, so I will stick with my feelings that Mike won with "Ewe reap what ewe sew" or "You reap what you sow."

It looks like Janelle may have seen the light and realizes now that Will's playing her, but I bet he can damage-control that. It also seems that Janelle is putting blind trust into James once again. Silly buxom blonde, silly.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Tuesday Evening 8/15

<--- Ohhh, the big meeting in the HOH with James, Janelle, Howie and Woogie! Woogie are trying to do damage control so that Janelle will work with them on the Marcellas vote-out. Of course, that way they still are in like Flynn with all sides if they turn Janelle and Howie.

Will it work? Right now, it's not looking too good. I'll get more to the point after I get what's happened through the evening hours all written up.

Here are the happenings from the Big Brother House of Inconsistent Inconsistencies:

  • Howie confronted James about betraying S6. James said they did it to themselves by going with Chill Town and that Howie hasn't done anything this season but talk.
  • James told Janelle and Howie that Woogie are backdooring Marcellas.
  • James ran back to Woogie to report his conversation. He told them that they said Chill Town doesn't trust him. "Perfect!," says Mike.
  • Then James went to the Floaters and bragged about how he told off Janelle and Howie.
  • Chicken George apparently hasn't committed his vote. He told Woogie he's thinking of asking Marcellas for his slop pass in exchange for his vote.
  • James told Erika that Danielle cannot drink tonight. [Editor's note: But no one's the boss of Danielle. She shouldn't drink, but she ended up doing so.]
  • Marcellas told Mike that if he stays and gets HOH, he'll go after Howie and Janelle.
  • Mike told Janelle that he thinks Marcellas is going to target him and S6 - they should all (CT and S6) have a meeting in the HOH Room later.
  • Will started working his Will ways to turn Janelle's lead to vote out Marcellas instead of Erika. Oh, he can talk and dance those circles around her, can't he? He turns her right around and it becomes a Marcellas Bashfest.
  • Over at the Legend of Doom, Danielle wants Janelle to believe she's been betrayed by Chill Town.
  • Will talked to Danielle and told her that it's going to be very bad if James doesn't vote out Marcellas.
  • Erika complained more about the re-do of the HOH with the floaters.
  • Janelle was sticking to her guns about voting Erika out, but they all kept working on her. [Editor's note: She should have Gullible tattooed across her forehead this season. She's oblivious to the fact that everyone in the house except Howie and Chicken George are working her for their own benefit. Oh, add Marcellas to those two. He sees what's going on, but right now is powerless to stop it. Danielle has been shmoozing him, so he thinks she's the only one on his side.]
  • For the longest time, Janelle was telling both CT and S6 that she'd be "pissed" if Marcellas was voted out because that would mean everyone betrayed her. [Editor's note: Precisely why Woogie's tactic is to turn Janelle around. Then they have the best of both worlds. Janelle's not mad at them and Marcellas out/Erika remains.]
  • The meeting went on forever, it seemed. Finally she agreed to to talk to Erika.
  • Mike went running to get Erika and prep her for what she should say to Janelle - promise to go after Danielle and not S6, etc.
  • I found it interesting that when Mike was scheming with Erika about what she should say to Janelle, this screen cap (right) shows Erika at the Fraudulent wall.
  • In the end, after what seemed like forever, Janelle made a deal with Erika - she will be saved this week, but she must target Danielle if she wins HOH.
  • So, Will did it again. He is the PupperMaster and proves it at every turn.
  • He stayed shmoozing with Janelle for time on end while Danielle works her own magic with Marcellas to make him think she's his only friend. However, she's in the thick of it with Woogie and wants Marcellas to go instead of Erika.

There's where we stand right now. The houseguests have been told that votes will be taped tomorrow. They assume it's because the Coup d'Etat on the live show Thursday will take a lot of time, but really have no clue. They also have no idea that there's a Prom King/Queen vote going on.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Digest - Daytime Tuesday 8/15


I'm going to start this with an off-topic comment to a comment from SSW - she asked what I thought of Keith demanding money to do a good job for Virginia on the Hell's Kitchen finale. I think it was low class, but I also think he wouldn't have asked Heather for it. Virginia picked a poor team outside of Keith and then insulted them. So, she kind of "reaps what she sows" (BB Connection!)


And... to Annie in NJ -- I think Mike has the Coup d'Etat question answered right. I think it is (with the clues phonetically) - Ewe reap what you sew.

Here are the events from today so far in that Big Brother House of Psychotic Syncophants:
  • Once again, Danielle actually got up around 7 AM their time.
  • Erika and Danielle discussed Danielle's vote. Danielle said she has to be honest with Marcellas and let him know that she has to vote for Erika to stay.
  • Mike Boogie and Erika are now smooching good morning. Apparently they aren't so worried they'll be found out these days.
  • Erika said they should just leave George out in the cold. Both she and Danielle are irked that he didn't tell them his vote. [Editor's note: But, aha! Erika isn't being completely honest with Danielle. George agreed yesterday to vote to keep Erika... to Erika. He was under pressure, but...!]
  • Mike thinks Danielle should go tell Marcellas he's gone. [Editor's note: Remember, Mike... Danielle doesn't like to do the dirty work for others!]
  • Mike Boogie wants Will to "go puppy dog-eyes" at Janelle to get her to support the Marcellas eviction.
  • James and Woogie tried to think of a plot to get Howie into a fight with Marcellas to show that Marcellas causes drama in the house and they're better off without him.
  • Danielle talked to George in the Storage Room telling him they need his vote to save Erika. George told her just to let him know what he needed to do. He's still tickled pink to not be nominated.
  • Woogie thinks they're working very hard for the show.
  • Danielle told Marcellas everyone they told was safe ended up evicted and asked if he was sure Janelle wasn't trying to backdoor him. [Editor's note: Dang, Will's good, Danielle's good. They both know what to say to whom to get something rolling. Will is better than Danielle as she tends to let herself show too much frustration at times. But, she's good.]
  • James is worried that if Janelle gets HOH next week, she'll put him up. [Editor's note: He should worry.]
  • James told George how much he's going to enjoy Janelle and Howie's downfall. [Editor's note: Notice he didn't mention to George that he wants George's downfall, too.]
  • Will's "one more reason the show's producers suck" - they should tell the jury to vote for who played the game the best, not out of friendship. He's right on that one.
  • Marcellas went to Janelle and told her about Danielle's backdoor discussion. When Janelle asked him if he thought she was backdooring him, he said no. He thinks he has votes to stay from George (who said he'd think about it, but didn't commit), Danielle (ha!) and James (double ha!). He doesn't know how Chill Town is voting. [Editor's note: Chances are he'll have one vote from the one person he didn't mention -- Howie.]
  • Erika and George talked again. She's still pressuring him although he seemed to say okay to voting to keep her from what I saw last night. Maybe I missed something.
  • Erika and Danielle are still shocked that Will convinced Janelle to put up Marcellas - it's the perfect person.
  • Will (lying) told Howie and Janelle that unless Marcellas slapped Boogie or something, he wouldn't vote him out. [Editor's note: Gullible, gullible, gullible...]

And, now you've been updated. Ready for the show?

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Overnight Into Tuesday 8/15


Here are the hoppin' happenings from the overnight hours in that Big Brother House of When Good TV Goes Bad:
  • Will, Janelle, Danielle and Marcellas played Murderer with the deck of cards.
  • It was a bit refreshing to see them have a good time, laughing and not strategizing.
  • But, in the long run, it was a bit boring.
  • Howie joined them in his underwear. Now, there's where things might get a bit strange, eh?
  • Howie tried to play the card game, but he didn't understand it. He decided he only wanted to visit his Jack Shack, then shower.
  • Aha! A question answered (I was confused) - Marcellas fussed that he wishes he wasn't going to sequester and would be able to go on with his life. [Editor's note: I wasn't sure if it was this week or next. Oh, Marcellas will be alone for a week!]
  • Howie gave Internet viewers a guided tour of the Jack Shack. Eep.
  • When he finished not being the Master of his own Domain, he said "that was the bee's knees!" Very odd.
  • Will told Janelle and Howie that he and Mike Boogie BOTH won the Coup d'Etat question, but no one knows. [Editor's note: @@ Eyeroll!]
  • James really thinks the L.O.D. can make the final four - himself, Danielle, Will and Mike.
  • Janelle told Will that Marcellas and Erika wanted her to nominate Woogie the week she nominated Diane.
  • Howie told Janelle and Will that keeping Will was the best decision they ever made. He also said Chicken George sold out to Marcellas, Danielle and company.
  • Janelle, Will and Howie plan to "test" Erika by telling her they're going to go after Chill Town. Well, not Will tell her, obviously!
  • Will said that James will have a lot to answer for when he gets out of the house because the Internet fans see it all. Howie, Janelle and Will spent a good deal of time trashtalking James, but you notice he's not on the block. Hmmm...

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Update - Monday Evening 8/14


Another sloshy sloppy night in the house... and I'm not talking BB Slop!

Without further ado, here are the evening's events from that Big Brother House of Wanton Lads and Lassies:
  • Mike Boogie is concerned that Chicken George won't align with anyone. I read that as Mike Boogie is concerned that Chicken George won't align with Chill Town.
  • The houseguests started giving shout-outs to people they know, so we got bad music and the flame/clouds loop. Ow. Quit it.
  • Janelle told Howie that she was thinking about what Danielle said last night (noms?) and that she's psycho. Both Janelle and Howie think James might "screw them over." Them as in Janelle and Howie.
  • Howie said that James has gone from being a floater to jumping ship. He doesn't want James and Danielle in the house. [Editor's note: Well, it took a while, but Howie sees the light! But is it too late to stop James' wheels in motion?]
  • Howie remembered that it's Maggie's birthday today. Interesting.
  • BB gave the houseguests pizza, beer, and cake to celebrate the mid-season point. The cake has their memory wall pictures painted on it.
  • The best part? George is allowed to eat for the party! Good for him!
  • Unfortunately for the live feed watchers, BB also provided music for the houseguests. Oh, they provided us music, too -- the loud nasty blaring theme song and video of flame/clouds! Ratsafratsa...!
  • When the feeds return, they're in the backyard and there seems to have been a huge food fight -- food in the pool and everywhere.
  • Marcellas, Danielle and Erika complained that the ones who do the damage (broken chair, etc.) never pay for their ill behavior. [Editor's note: I'm assuming they mean Will and Mike. Janelle doesn't break things. Howie rarely breaks things. If he does, he stands there and looks confused.]
  • The food fight apparently started when Janelle shoved cake down Will's pants. It sounds like everyone was involved. George did a lot of the cleaning up.
  • Oh, juicy news! Erika gave Mike Boogie a lap dance. Marcellas fussed about it, so it must have happened.
  • George is still walking around smiling because he wasn't nominated. Earlier, Janelle told him that she meant to tell him that he wouldn't go up, but she couldn't catch him alone.
  • James told Mike Boogie that they have to vote Marcellas out as a surprise on the live show to crush Janelle and Howie's spirits.
  • James also told Mike that if the "secret power" is that he can send someone home, make it Janelle.
  • Will and Erika talked. He told her that it's set that Marcellas will leave, but she has to convince Janelle that she'll go after Chill Town. He said they have to get rid of Janelle or she'll keep winning comps. He also told her that Janelle has no clue that they're (Erika and Woogie) working together.

That's it for now. Later!
