'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds Into the Evening - 7/18



<-- Zoetawny's take on the Jenitard. Whateva! (Thanks, Zoetawny!)

I must say the tail and ears are a nice touch.

I still don't have a clue why the voting is live on tomorrow's show. Since they'v been in this format, I can't recall live on show voting while the numbers are so high. It's usually something reserved for when the first jury member gets voted out.

Oh, well. It gives them an extra day to scheme and backstab, right?

Here are the events into Wednesday evening from that Big Brother house of Ubiquitous Über-Alliances:
  • They played dodgeball, a game they play every day or two. Yawn.
  • Jen complained about the pictures she received in her HOH gift basket... again.
  • Jen made her HOH Blog entry today for the official website. I'll be curious to see if she knows how to spell. ;-)
  • Joe thinks his votes to stay are Kail, Jameka, Mike, Nick, and Jessica.
  • Of those, Nick will most likely vote for Dick to stay; Jameka and Jessica are on the fence. Oh. Joe has Mike and Kail!
  • Kail put a guilt trip on Joe about digging herself into a hole if he doesn't stay this week.
  • Jameka told Kail she should play the game in a way which makes her proud and not lie because it will affect her integrity.
  • Jameka, once again, refused to tell her voting decision to anyone.
  • Kail went on about Dick "threatening" her in the kitchen. Jameka told her at least Dick was honest with her and that she should refocus her attention. Focusing solely on Dick would destroy her own game. She also told Kail that most of the other people in the house didn't feel the same way about Dick as she (Kail) does.
  • Joe tried to campaign to Jameka. She told him he doesn't have the votes to stay. Jameka told him she can't stand lies and can't live in the house with them.
  • Jen told Joe he must stay up all night working with the backyard crew for votes.
  • Jameka made up a question game and several in the yard (including Joe and Dick) played.
  • Eric burnt a pizza and Daniele slopped her slop all over the microwave. (Where's Gordon Ramsay when you need him?)
  • Kail and Jen headed to the HOH room where they figured out that Joe won't have the votes to stay.
  • As I get this out to you, Jen is trying to convince Zach to vote for Joe to stay. I don't think it will work.

'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds Updates - Today So Far, July 18



<--- My eyes! My eyes! Jen is barely in her clothing first thing in the morning at breakfast! Call the authorities! Hide the children!

Ahem.

I personally think that Jessica has a more attractive body than Jen does. Jessica, despite her ditziness and voice, wears clothing. Her bathing suits are normal.

Here are the happenings so far today in that Big Brother house of Battling Bimbos and the Mimbos Who Love Them:
  • Kail and Mike were the first two up and had quite a pow-wow. Kail is beginning to realize that they probably don't really have Nick in their alliance.
  • She went on and on about how Joe had no one and they've struggled so hard for him and may not even have the five votes.
  • They don't know where Eric, Jameka, or Jessica loyalties are.
  • Kail told Mike he has to work on Zach and Nick to bring them around.
  • They talked of setting up a secret signal to use while awaiting the live vote on Thursday.
  • Kail thought that Daniele's crying last night may have been due to Dick. Mike didn't know, didn't volunteer his own thoughts.
  • Kail told Mike that Jen told her she can get Eric to vote Dick out. (Not if we say he has to vote Joe out!)
  • Nick told Kail he didn't know why Daniele was upset last night.
  • Kail and Mike don't trust Nick and they're sure he'll vote Joe out.
  • Kail and Mike want to work on Eric to secure his vote. (Ain't gonna happen!)
  • Kail thinks Nick has three women who have fallen for him -- Daniele, Amber, and Jen.
  • Half of the time Kail is rambling on to Mike, he's just nodding his head.
  • Dick told Nick that Daniele was upset last night due to her personal situation between the boyfriend at home and her interest in him. Dick asked him not to say anything to Daniele, but thought he should know and wanted to give him a heads-up.
  • Dick confronted Kail asking why she told him she was voting for him to stay, then campaigned for Joe. He was relentless, but didn't go all kinds of whacko on her. He called her a liar more than once. She just got antsy and defensive.
  • Kail tried to use the situation to make folks vote Dick out.
  • Joe tried to get Jameka to commit her vote, but she wouldn't. She's not saying she'll vote to keep Joe. She's just being noncommital - "If you do have it, remember me. If you don't have it, remember me." Um, okay.
  • Jen worked on Zach to vote Dick out, but he refused. He said he can't be in the house with Joe.
  • When Daniele told Nick he was acting crabby, he told her both sides were pushing him today.
  • Zach told Nick that he was threatened by Kail, Jen, and Mike. Zach and Nick think they need to get Mike out of Kail's clutches.
  • Jen told Zach that Amber campaigned to get him on the block. Nick told him that wasn't true.
  • Zach and Nick are still planning to vote Joe out.
  • Mike worked on Zach trying to get him to change his vote.
  • Zach said he thinks Kail is becoming a liability. (What's that you say, Mrs. Robinson, Joltin' Joe has left and gone away... oh...oh...oh...)
  • Jen got her HOH camera, so gameplay came to a still for the photo op.

All is still up in the air, but we know for sure the vote will be done live on tomorrow night's show... for some reason. Maybe they need a time filler?

'Big Brother 8' - Latest Screen Cap and TV Squad!

















This is a screen cap of what's happening in the Big Brother house right this very moment! Exciting, huh? ;-)

If you want to see Jen in her Jenitard-kini, as well as read up on my latest, check out my new TV Squad live feeds post. I hope to see you there!

And, as another note, folks in the NYC area... we're working on that real life meeting for the weekend! Drop me a line! Commenter Sydney is on the plane heading this way. She's going to hit some thunderstorms. (Sigh.)

'Big Brother 8' - Live Feeds Report - Into the Overnight 7/18




















My favorite Evel Dick as he and Eric have a late night talk in the backyard.

My guess is that America will instruct Eric to vote for Joe to leave. I don't think he had planned to vote otherwise. Eric has more down-to-earth and real talks with Dick than he has with anyone in the house.

Here are the evening and late night happenings from inside that Big Brother House of Nervous Nellie and Evel Jenius:
  • Zach told Kail he wouldn't vote Dick out. He doesn't trust Joe.
  • Kail told Nick that if Dick stays he'll come after her and Mike. Nick told her, "It is what it is."
  • Joe thinks he has Jameka's and Jessica's votes. They hinted he did, but you never know.
  • Jessica told Eric she's in an alliance with Daniele, Nick, Jameka and Joe.
  • When Joe told Kail he thought he had the votes, she told him she doesn't see it -- Dick would have to blow something between now and voting for it to happen.
  • Kail advised Joe to make deals and make them believable.
  • Zach ascertained that Dustin is still voting for Joe to leave. Yup.
  • Dick told Joe that he heard he's saying a lot of things about him. Joe denied he's campaigning negatively against him. Dick advised Joe to be careful of what he's saying so it doesn't do him in if he (Joe) stays.
  • Jameka told Jessica not to tell Joe she's not voting to keep him yet.
  • Amber and Daniele talked about Kail wanting Dick out. Daniele said that Kail is worried, but she would be safe.
  • Kail thinks they can get Eric and Nick to vote Dick out.
  • Kail told Jameka they have five votes (for Dick to go). Jameka told her they would need more than five because things can change.
  • Jameka said she doesn't like Dick, but the votes just aren't there.
  • Kail went on a quest to see who can influence Eric. Little does she know, but he's our puppet.
  • Kail told Jessica if she gets Eric's vote, she will get Mike's. Then she told her "if you rat me out, I'll rat you out."
  • Jameka told Jess, "Leave it alone. Joe is going home."
  • Big Brother gave them alcohol. Eric advised Jen to not talk strategy with others since she was drunk.
  • Jen told Eric that she thinks Dick is going home. Eric told her a lot of the votes were non-commital at this time.
  • Daniele warned Dick that Kail is campaigning to get the entire house against him. She told him to stay cool.
  • Dick told Dustin that Kail was campaigning against him.
  • Jen told Eric that Nick is part of the Mrs. Robinson alliance. She said she tested it when suggesting to Kail she put Nick on the block -- her reaction was a dead giveaway. (Maybe Jen is smarter than she seems.)
  • When Kail and Jen told Eric that Joe doesn't have the numbers to stay (amazing ups and downs here), Eric pointed out that Joe could win a HOH easier than Dick.
  • Joe told Zach that if he stays, he'll change. He also said if he wins HOH, he'll go after the weakest players.
  • Kail worked and worked on Eric to get him to commit to vote out Dick. He didn't commit to anything.
  • Zach told Dick that he told Joe that he will vote to keep Dick.
  • Dick told Zach he knows that Kail is plotting against him. Zach told him he'd tell her to stop because Joe was more of a threat.
  • Dick pointed out that Joe was still smoking after promising to quit if he stays.
  • Daniele told Dick that Eric is on the fence. Dick was surprised. (He doesn't know we have his back!)
  • Daniele had a crying heart-to-heart talk with Dick about not wanting to be in the house, worried about the situation with her boyfriend at home and her feelings for Nick. Dick did her best to comfort her. He told her the outside was real, not the situation in the house. She just kept saying she wanted to talk to her boyfriend.
  • Dick told her she can always talk to him and depend on him. He'll always love her.
  • Nick asked Daniele what was wrong, she wouldn't tell him.
  • Joe, Dustin and Jessica were spinning in the teacup after drinking.
  • Joe told Jessica he thought Daniele was crying because her father was going home.
  • The code for a Joe vote (according to Joe) is "Do you have a meeting at 4?"
  • Eric, Dick, and Dustin mentioned that they never see Mike. (Neither do I -- he's a ghost!)
  • Jen and Kail think they have a Dick ouster in the bag.

They're almost all still up.

'Big Brother 8' - East Coast Update - Live Blogging 7/17 Show

Jackie's TV Blog, BB8, Big Brother 8

The show has started here on the East Coast. Return to this entry as I'll update it throughout the show. Do not copy and paste any part of this entry on other sites without linking and giving this blog credit. (This means YOU.)

We've gone through a recap and Amber crying because she loves the two nominees so much. Now Nick and Daniele is whispering. He told her about his alliance.

Zach thinks Nick is getting played by Daniele and is concerned for their alliance.

It's the America's Player segment. He wanted something fun, so there he goes. Yes, America chose Joe. He FAILED the task because he gave up. Now the shower talk... gee, I had better video.

Veto competition. Jen picked Houseguest's Choice from the bag and chose Mike. Daniele chose Joe. Dick chose Amber. Dustin is the host. Amber is crying AGAIN. Too much pressure!

Jen tells Joe, Mike and Amber that they're to take Danmiele and Amber out first. If one of them gets the veto and uses it to remove Daniele and Dick from the block, she will put up one of their closest allies. Amber cries even more.

Amber is telling Nick, Jameka and Daniele about what Jen said. Amber said she had wanted to win to save either Daniele or Dick. Daniele confronts Jen about the threat and how Amber is reacting. Now Dick is in the act. Jen is just standing there.

Joe told her that Jen after putting people pn the block for having negative energy, was picking on him and making Amber cry. Now Zach and Jameka are having minor words. Dick is trying to intervene in an Amber/Jen talk. He's defending Amber, but it's probably for his own purposes, as well.

Time for the veto comp... snow! The Christmas theme! "The Cutthroat Christmas." It's a curling game and the winner gets the veto. When out of the game, select a gift from other the tree. Ones who last longer can steal the gift already won by another. There are gifts and punishments.

Joe eliminated first. His gift is a Slop Pass. Jen is eliminated next -- her gift is her red unitard which she must wear for rest of the week. Mike is eliminated,,, lots of Dick commentary on the comp. Mike won a Big Brother date, romantic gourmet meal in the yard. Dick is now out. He won a plasma TV.

It's between Amber and Daniele. Amber choked and tells us she threw it (from the DR) so Daniele could win. Amber has to wear handcuffs chaining her to the houseguest of her choice for 24 hours. She chose Kail. Daniele wins the POV! (But we knew that!)

Time for the unitard exhibibtion. "The Thing 2," yells Joe. The chained duo, Kail and Amber, share their Diary Room session.

Eric is working on Jen to get Jessica up on the block as a replacement. He's failing.

Zach is questioning Nick about who will go up. Nick and Zach both want to save Dick. Zach pushes Jen to choose Joe to replace Daniele if she saves herself. In a HOH Room meeting, they discuss who should go on the block. Jen wasn't thrilled with everyone pushing her to put up Joe.

Nick is flirting with Daniele again. Jen is looking jealous. She goes back to the HOH Room and tell the group there she wants to put Nick on the block.

Daniele is worried that if she uses the POV it will affect her Dad -- he's the one she trusts the most in the house. Asks Dick why she should use the veto to save him -- he joked about their close relationship, then told her to make her own choice. Daniele gives a bit teary speech. She's saving herself. Jen, in red unitard, snottily compliments Daniele and chooses to put Joe on the block.

Who do you want Eric, America's Player, to vote to evict? The task will only count if our choice goes home.

Vote JOE, vote early, vote often.
