'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report w/Schedule Change Reminder Tuesday 8/22

I'll start this off with a reminder... tonight's show (Tuesday) will air at 9 PM ET/PT in most viewing areas, not the usual 8 PM ET/PT. There's a special on in its regular time slot. How dare they, huh?

Here are today's events from that Big Brother House Double-Dipping Deceitful Double-Crossers:

• It was almost dawn at the BB House when Will and Janelle called it a night. A day? Whatever.
• Will and Janelle plan to study for the next HOH comp together. By losing Howie, she lost her drill partner.
• Will told her if they get HOH this week, they should vote out Danielle. [Editor's note: That's not what he tells Danielle!]
• James was the only one up at the crack of 10:20 or so. He said he lives with a bunch of pigs while looking around. [Editor's note: He's right. This is the messiest BB house I've ever seen on the feeds and none of them have been really clean!]
• Mike Boogie talked to Danielle about the vote, kind of sort of. She wanted to know if he wanted her to vote out James. He told her he can't really tell her how to vote. He said that he would like George to leave, but then he mentioned James' double-dipping with alliances and said he knows Will wants James out. He himself respects Will's opinion and gameplay, but he's not going to tell her how to vote.
• Erika and Danielle discussed keeping George in the game. Erika said she doesn't trust James at all. Danielle told her she was torn, then added that she can't figure out George's strategy and that bothers her. [Editor's note: We know, Danielle, we know. You've only said it about 837 times now!]
• Danielle told Erika that Janelle will put up the Woogie pair if she gets HOH. When Erika asked both or one, Danielle told her that Janelle told them both.
• So, now Erika and Danielle decide they have to win HOH.
• Mike is wondering if it will be a live vote - he wants to let Danielle know as close to the voting as possible that the target is James.
• Erika does casting for Survivor which takes up about nine months a year. [Editor's note: I know she's mentioned it before, but I don't think I've mentioned it.]
• James, Dead Man Walking, mingled with the living. But he's very subdued.
• They played with clay. Woohoo. Well, it was cute for a bit - Erika made a Mr. Bill doll (Saturday Night Live long, long ago)... "Oh, no! Mr. Bill!"
• James killed Mr. Bill with an airplane. Oh, no!
• James claimed he really wants to go home and taught Danielle how he likes his towels folded. [Editor's note: May I have an eyeroll, please? @@]
• Then James told Danielle that he needs to get HOH... if he's still there for it. Fickle!
• Danielle and Erika think that James is like Sawyer on Lost. Um. I say no.
• From what's being said, I'm still thinking a James eviction.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Digest - Late Night and Overnight Into Tuesday 8/22

It hasn't been a thrill a minute in the BB House, but it is what it is.

Fairly quiet.

Yep, that's what it is.

Here are the late night and overnight events (or lack thereof) from the Big Brother House of the Blues:

• Will had an amusing talk with the Internet, declaring love for us (is he lying?) and so much more. It was a hoot to watch him, better than the season Marcellas sat and talked to himself for hours. Someone posted the YouTube clip of this in the comments of my previous entry. Check it out if you can - but the clip is just a bit of what went on!
• Will claims he invented the mandana, not Jase. He wore one in Season 2; Jase didn't come along until Season 5.
• Will and Mike said that if they were up for an America's Choice, no one would call. [Editor's note: I think Will would get some calls, but I don't see too many thrilled with Mike.]
• James talked to the show's doctor Dr. Zachary for quite a while, but didn't tell us about the visit.
• James wants to make a voodoo doll of George to scare him.
• Danielle thinks she can only win against Erika. [Editor's note: I would think she'd be a shoe-in against Mike, too.]
• The HG are bored. They had so much action for a few days in a row, now nothing for them until the live show Thursday.
• Will bounced a ball around until BB shouted at him and then laid down the law - "There will be no ball-playing in the house!"
• After Will got called out for ball playing by BB, he claimed he'd use this as evidence. [Editor's note: Mocking James' lawsuit claims over the POV, for sure!]
• The target still seems to be James this week, not Chicken George.
• Will told Janelle he's committed to her and Mike Boogie. [Editor's note: When he's with Danielle, he's committed to her and Mike Boogie.]
• Danielle and James think the show won't show him calling Janelle a liar because she's "America's Choice." [Editor's note: @@ <-- have to roll those eyes!]
• Will told Mike that the Diary Room told him that anything else broken in the house will be taken out of their stipends. [Editor's note: In other words, knock off the tomfoolery, boys!]
• Mike gave James the nickname "YuckMouth" because he's talking so much trash. [Editor's note: Takes one to know one?]
• Danielle told James that LOD is tight. [Editor's note: Is not! Is not! She's lying to her boy!]
• Will spoke with Janelle about splitting the money once again. I'm surprised that BB isn't saying much to them, but BB is definitely aware of the talk. Maybe Will will get a surprise penalty nom, maybe not. But, BB must not be taking any of the talk seriously as they haven't acted.
• They were talking about splitting the money legally, abiding by whatever the contract says, it seems.
• Most of the HG played poker for a long time.
• James is still choosing to be alone except for occasional talks with Danielle.
• Will and Danielle spent most of the night up talking about past seasons, then were joined by Janelle and the talk continued.
• Now they (Will, Danielle and Janelle) are playing cards as I post this. Oy. These folks are going to have trouble fixing their sleep patterns when the show is over.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Digest - Daytime Monday 8/21

When James sulked through Sunday, he kept saying how America (and the show's producers) hated him and loved Janelle. Now, hate is a very strong word. I don't really like to use it without reason and neither does graphic artist Zoetawny.

Do you think Will will want to sell them on his website?

Here are the events of the day in that Big Brother House of Devious Dolts:

• Shortly before 10 AM, Big Brother woke the houseguests up and told them the Power of Veto Ceremony would begin in two hours. [Editor's note: So, we can count on three hours.]
• George weighed himself and came in at under 200 pounds. He's thrilled. That's so cool! He's lost over 20 pounds. BB Slop is good for something.
• James was singing to himself that he gets to see the show's shrink and see his contract today.
• James told Will that when he finished the show last year, a lot of people compared him to Will. [Editor's note: Gag me with a spoon, please.]
• Will told James to be nice to Janelle the next few days. He also told him that Janelle plans on coming after CT for the Howie and Marcellas evictions. [Editor's note: That's one of the schemes/rumors he and Janelle were talking about planting. Y'see, you plant the seeds and watch them grow, you're going to end up reaping what you sow.]
• Alone with Danielle, Will told her he had concerns about James stacking the jury, double-dipping in alliances and more. James had told Janelle he was sorry and supporting her while telling Will he hates her and wants her out -- and Will knows both sides. [Editor's note: Well, just about everyone is double-dipping alliances, but James' lies strikingly similar to the present scenario is what did him in last year. The morale of the story? Lie wise, I guess.]
• Danielle asked Janelle if she has talked to James and Janelle claimed "just in passing." Danielle told her she wants to patch their relationship. [Editor's note: Suuure...!]
• Will went to Mike and told him that he planted the seed of distrust of James to Danielle.
• The veto ceremony was held... late, of course. Janelle apologized to George because he'sl on the block when she saved herself with the veto.
• Mike and Janelle talked about the truce Danielle offered Janelle. She told him it wasn't for just a week - it was a team-up.
• Janelle told him that Danielle and Erika are going to target Chill Town (as James, Danielle and Erika told her). Both Mike and Janelle talked about how James must leave.
• Danielle indeed brought the James double-dipping alliances conversation to Erika, just as Will knew she would.
• Erika told Danielle that Janelle will vote out James because she has a new alliance. [Editor's note: Not sure if she meant the truce or George here.]
• James told Erika and Danielle that this would be his only game talk this week - "If you want to keep me, keep me. If not, send me on to sequester."
• James has been talking about seeing the show's shrink since he got up. He grabbed a doll (leftover from the comp) and yelled, "If I don't see a shrink soon, this doll will get it!"
• Danielle told details from Season three, for the 47th time.
• After a backyard lockdown, they went inside to find the smaller table in the kitchen. About time.
• Will asked Mike why Danielle wants George to leave so much. Mike said it was because she had alliances with everyone but him and she couldn't control him. [Editor's note: Yep, that's just about right!]
• Will asked when they would tell Danielle about James leaving this week - Mike said they should before the eviction. He also said that Janelle cannot stay until the final three because she's so good in comps.
• James told Danielle that Woogie wants Janelle out and they're lying about it.
• Erika thinks America hates her.
• Danielle told James doesn't believe the "Janelle is going after Chill Town" story.
• When James asked Danielle if Woogie will keep him, she told him Erika would vote him out because he keeps switching sides.
• When James said he wanted to talk to Erika, Danielle said she wanted to talk to her first.
• James asked Janelle who she was voting for and she told him she would vote to keep him. [Editor's note: According to Will's scheme or really? Hmmm...]
• James said that Mike has already lost jury votes, but if he goes to sequester he will vote for Will.

And, there you go. A few issues brought up in comments:

Vivian asked me to clarify the Janelle/deal to split money with Woogie bit. I addressed that in my last entry. What I saw didn't constitute what I'd consider a contract of any sort. Woogie has been offering money, jobs and more. She didn't agree to anything. If anything, Woogie should be reprimanded for these offers they give everyone.

Kitty wondered what was on the tapes they see in sequester. If it's like recent years, only the HOH comp and perhaps if something really fun or silly happens. I know they've shown silliness like dancing and stuff. No game play, no Diary Room, no strategy.

Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Bulletin - Veto Ceremony 8/21

As expected, Janelle used the Veot to save herself. Mike nominated Chicken George to join James in the nominee chairs.

A full report of the day's events will be posted soon. Please stop back!

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Overnight Into Monday 8/21

The house has changed so much since last Friday that it almost doesn't seem like the same folks living there. Between Howie's departure, Janelle's crisis followed by victory and James giving all the way in to his anger... it's not a happy place. Not at all.

Here are the events from the overnight hours in that Big Brother House of Taunting and Tantrums:

• Janelle taught Will how to play chess, but cheated while she did it. He may be leading her on about not knowing the game as he knew she cheated.
• Woogie offered George a deal to go in with them - they'd put him on the block with James, but James would be the target and no one would know they're working together.
• Will wants to sell the house on the idea that George is going home while it will actually be James.
• Mike wants to work with George mainly because he's about his only choice to go up with James.
• George ended up agreeing to a one week limited deal. He goes on the block with James. James goes home. If George wins HOH next week, he won't put Woogie (Will and Mike) on the block.
• Janelle told Woogie she didn't think she could vote out James because she promised him long ago that she wouldn't. She wants them to put Danielle on the block with him because she put Marcellas on the block for them.
• Woogie told Janelle that it's certain that James is leaving.
• Janelle wanted some kind of promise for her own safety if she votes out James.
• Woogie talked about splitting money with Janelle (like they have with practically everyone in the house) and she doesn't know if they can be trusted. After all, according to her, she trusted them for four weeks and so much went wrong.
• She told them she still feels bad about what they did to Howie.
• Janelle finally agreed to vote James out after Will sweet-talked her some more. [Editor's note: He hinted that they're more than friends!]
• Will told her he was playing the game coldly without emotion until she came along. [Editor's note: @@ Eyeroll alert! Don't trust his puppy eyes!]
• Danielle told Erika that no matter what she promised George, she will vote for him to go because she doesn't know his plans and doesn't want him messing up her game. [Editor's note: It's also a good reason to vote for her boy James to stay.]
• Danielle said that George is the most dangerous player in the game. [Editor's note: @@]
• Will told Janelle he wants to be friends with her after September 24th (they haven't been told of the finale change to 9/12) and she feels the same.
• George decided that if he was going to go on the block anyway, he might eat real food for four days and take the penalty nomination. [Editor's note: Hmmm... would that work? Or would someone else have to be nominated by Mike?]
• Will once again offered to split winnings with Janelle. She didn't commit to anything.
• Janelle told George that Danielle and James have been a team for a long time. [Editor's note: Duh! She should have noticed that a few weeks back!]
• Shades of olden days, when Will and Janelle ran back and forth across the lawn to exercise, Big Brother informed them how many yard laps make a mile.
• George told James that the game has changed since his season and it's ruthless now. He asked James why he's doing it again. James told him he thought it was fun last season.
• Will complained that Big Brother wouldn't give him a sharp kitchen knife and he had to chop onions with a butter knife. "I promise I won't hurt anyone, Big Brother!"
• James told George and Danielle he had planned to get really mean today and explode. He's still talking about wanting to read over his contract to find out his rights. Once he mentions contract - BOOM - blocked feeds! Earlier he had been talking lawyer once again.
• Danielle told James he has to mend fences with Janelle before he leaves. She asked him if Janelle knew all the bad things Marcellas had said about her. Perhaps he could use that information to mend said fences.
• Then James started talking as if he's staying and he discussed who he would nominate if he got HOH. Both he and Danielle (once again) say they'd backdoor Janelle.
• While alone, Danielle addressed the Internet and Sarah, in particular. She said she loves James (not in a romantic way) and still wants to go to the final two with him.

That's pretty much where things stand. Despite a brouhaha in the comments of my previous entry, Janelle did not agree to a "contract" to split the money with Will and Mike. Woogie has been approaching people all season (not just Janelle) with that proposition. I don't know why Big Brother hasn't clamped down on the talk, but Janelle made no monetary deals with them whatsoever that I saw, despite the boys offering.
