Survivor Micronesia: East Coast Updates 4/17 Show

jackie's tv blog, survivor

My latest Big Brother 9 live feeds post is be up on TV Squad.

The show has started here on the east coast. I'll update this post as important events (immunity, boot, and such) happen.

My full show review will be posted over at TV Squad later tonight.

As always, comments are a joy! :-)

Rewards challenge -- two teams of four compete, Cirie not picked in schoolyard pick and goes to Exile Island. Jason, Ozzy, Erik, and Amanda won reward -- an overnight cultural feast, dance and more.

Parvati won Immunity. Jason made a deal to give up so everyone can eat, but they all lied to him -- fingers crossed as they told him they wouldn't vote him out. Jeff said the deal will cost him the game.

ARGH ... why didn't he play the idol?

Ozzy was voted out.

Wah.

Big Brother 9 Live Feeds Into Thursday Morning


Ryan was happy to get a new stash of cigarettes in his HOH basket. I took this screen cap as he smoked in the yard last night.

Here are the latest happenings from inside that Big Brother House of Dwindling Days:
  • Adam and Ryan think whoever the third couple is in the house, they won't 'fess up now. (Well, maybe if they could talk, they would!)
  • Sharon is sure the slug in the yard is her same friend from the other night. Ryan and Adam threaten to cook it, so she had to ask Sheila to watch it so she could go to the Diary Room.
  • Adam told Sheila that if it's her and Ryan with a preexisting relationship, he's fine with it.
  • Ryan thinks Adam and Sharon could be siblings.
  • Ryan claims he doesn't know anyone in the house (from before the show) and that he never lies. Well, he's right on one count.
  • Sheila thinks that she might be related to Ryan and just not know it. That, to me, doesn't meet the criteria. If you don't know it, you don't have a preexisting relationship. I guess they're thinking along Cowby/Nakomis lines.
  • Sheila doesn't understand why BB would deliberately put a target on her and Adam as they're the only couple left. They pledge to be loyal to each other.
  • Ryan hinted to Sheila that he might put Adam on the block.
  • Adam is sure that Ryan will win POV, too.
  • Sharon's slug went missing.
  • The guys wondered if Sharon and Sheila might have a lesbian relationship.
  • Ryan's worried that since he got the question on the relationship right people will think it's him.
  • Sharon played with the guinea pigs as they pondered the relationship thing even more.
  • Sheila freaked out when she realized that Natalie's grandmother is from Tennessee and so is she. Horrors! Did she vote out a relative?
  • Ryan told Sharon he doesn't want to take Adam to the final two.
  • Sharon told Ryan that she knows Adam voted for Natalie to stay because he winked at her as he came out from voting.
  • Ryan thinks it would be best for him and Sharon to get Adam out next.
  • He just doesn't want to blatantly put him on the block. He really likes Adam.
  • Ryan thinks Adam is one who doesn't like to get the blood on his hands and keeps thinking of the jury vote.
  • Ryan also thinks that Adam has been playing spineless for weeks now. They decide they'll talk more after they get some sleep.
  • All are sleeping as I post this.

BB9 - Live Feeds Since the Eviction of Natalie


Sheila and Sharon are in the hot tub as they talk to Ryan. Adam is in the Diary Room. All is friendly, but Adam is now the odd man out with Sheila and Sharon.

Here's what has happened in the Big Brother House of No Gnats since the eviction:
  • They still haven't figured out that the pre-existing relationship still in the house is the guinea pigs.
  • Sheila spilled it that the relationship she thought of was Josh and Neil. She claimed she thought it was a lie (it was) when he told her they were a couple and were adopting a son.
  • Ryan thinks Matt and Sheila are related. Remember, they had thought she was his mother.
  • The feeds messed around focusing on the guinea pigs while they discussed the third couple.
  • The Diary Room is telling them the couple is still in the house, thus fueling more speculation.
  • Ryan and Adam next think Sharon is Sheila's niece.
  • Adam thinks there's something fishy going on.
  • Sharon thinks she knows who voted Natalie out. She's sure it's Adam because she heard him whispering to her as she left.
  • Sharon was confused by the question about the combined minutes. She says she misinterpreted it.
  • Ryan said "You can't trust a stripper (Natalie) and you can't trust a Penthouse Pet. (Sheila)" I guess he trusts Sharon and Adam, eh?
  • Ryan was playing with the oversized golf stuff and hit a ball into a camera. It started buzzing and they had to go on indoor lockdown while BB fixed it.
  • Sheila thought Natalie put her down and thought she was the dumbest girl in the house while she herself (Natalie) wasn't too bright.
  • Girl? Girl? A 46-year-old GIRL? It irks me that they call the grown men (although not necessarily mature) boys, but I can't buy calling Sheila a girl.
  • I am woman.
  • Hear me roar.
  • They're wondering if Sheila is some sort of relation to Ryan.
  • Ryan's HOH room was revealed. I'd say exciting, but ...! He got Mountain Dew, cigarettes, photos and a letter from Jen.
  • Not a heck of a lot of game talk going on. They're still going on about the third couple and the fact they have one six-pack of beer for four people.
  • Sharon's slug returned. It's her fur-iend with no fur. I guess it's a iend.
  • Ryan and Adam chopped holes in the sides of their beer cans and chugged them
  • Then they burped.

American Idol 4/16 Boot Update

They're doing the show with the two groups and one must tell which is the bottom three. David Archuleta is safe and in the middle.

I know I'm getting old. I think "Without You" is a Harry Nilsson song, not a Mariah Carey one.

David sits. David Cook, Jason and Carly are safe.

The bottom three are Kristy Lee Cook, Syesha Mercado, and Brooke White.

Syesha is safe. Brooke is safe.

Kristy Lee Cook is history.

Big Brother 9 4/16 Live Eviction Live Blogged From the East Coast

jackie's tv blog, Big Brother, BB9

Yep, Zoetawny does it again with a new graphic for tonight's show!

The show has started here on the east coast. As it airs, I'll constantly update this entry.Please forgive typos. And you know I love to read your comments!

Ohh ... Julie has short sleeves on ... she's wearing her arms! Her hair is up, too.

Sharon tells us Natalie has no idea how bad they want her out this week. Natalie is confident that she's just a awn. Sheila says she will be backdoored.

Natalie says to Adam and Ryan that she wants to go to the final three with them. Ryan tells us Natalie plays all sides and you don't know what to believe. Ryan and Adam decide a house meeting. I hate the way Ryan calls the girls "my bitches." Apparently he's racist and sexist!

Natalie is worried. They tell her there's going to be a meeting -- "things came out we need to confront." She's worried she's going home. Sheila acts suprised in the DR -- What are they doing?

Now they want her to come to the table, house meeting. She's dying her hair. Oh, I can stop typing for a while, because this is the video I uploaded before. :-)

Sheila says that the guys ruined her whole plan. She no longer knows if they're going to evict Natalie as she wants. Adam and Ryan talk. Ryan wants to go tell Natalie what's up. They tell her that she's playing too hard. She tells them she never lied to them, only to the girls. Now she gets teary. She says the girls threw her under the bus. She cries. She says she's loyal to them, always have been.

Will the tears work? I guess we'll know soon, eh?

Nat's in the kitchen and confronts Sharon (of course that was a whole day later). Sharon holds her own. Natalie denies anything but loyalty to the boys. Sharon just looks at her in disbelief.

Sheila asks Adam and Ryan who they're keeping. Sheila tells them Natalie is a bigger fish. Adam says he has to go with his heart. Now, this is last night's footage.

Hmm ... Julie told us James has some surprising words for his girlfriend Chelsia. What could that be? It better not be a marriage proposal!

Julie is going to chat with the houseguests. Natalie -- Adam and Ryan called your loyalty into question and you said you were loyal to them. Sharon says it wasn't her battle, let them get out what they felt. Sheila feels that she was thrown under the block and hurt. Ryan says it needed to be called out for Natalie's sake, it needed to be all out there on the table. Question -- F2 sit next to deserving or easy to beat. Adam says deserving because he can beat anyone. Sharon and natalie say deserving, so does Ryan. Sheila agrees.

Jury house -- Chelsia still has feelings for James. Josh is upset he got evicted by Natalie. Matt keeps to himself. James enters. Matt is happy he got booted. Chelsia feels bad that he didn't win. James has the DVD. James told them Adam gave him a shot. He tells people it really effects people when you leave on a bad note. He blames Chelsia for his getting evicted. He was the residue of Chelsia. She goes off crying. She's upset. James goes to her, hugs her. He consoles her. Tells her he's okay with leaving but he knows he fell for a girl.

I just figured out who James is reminding me of. Picture no pink mohawk -- Matthew Broderick.

DR pre-vote stuff. Ryan is thinking of keeping Nat, but she's good at comps. Adam thinks Sharon is easy to beat in comps, but she has some definite votes from the jury. He's dead stuck on this, he says.

Julie talks to the nominees. Sharon says thank you for keeping her here all theses times, again same speech. Natalie thanks BB for experience of a lifetime. She loves her boys, her loyalty is with them, she gets teary for votes once again.

The votes:
Ryan votes to evict Natalie
Adam votes to evict Sharon

It's a tie! After commercial ... I predict Sheila will cry and tell us it's the hardest decision she has ever had to make in the house.

Julie announces there is a tie. Both girls look worried. She tells Natalie that she just told all of America her loyalties were with the boys and she just can't have her evict her. Natalie weeps. Natalie is evicted. I don't think she'll hold up well with the jury. Adam or Ryan said it was fair.

She tells Julie she's beautiful. Sheila tells them that she made her job easier (with the speech I believe). She says she couldn't risk saving her.

Julie tells Nat she looked like a sure thing to be in the final four. She's shocked they let it go to a tie and she got evicted. She's upset at both boys because she was sure they were going to keep her. Playing all sides cost her she thinks. She claims she was trying to protect the boys.

Goodbye messages -- Sharon says people didn't know what to believe. Ryan wishes her good luck. Adam tells her it's strictly gameplay. Sheila apologizes and cries. Amazing heart, do care, say hello to Mattie for her.

HOH comp -- They're on a huge round platform with walls -- Fact or Fiction, about the houseguests. Step forward for fact, back for fiction. 7 questions, most points wins.

Allison received the fewest votes to come back? Jacob. Adam got it wrong. Sharon smiled.

Toy in GP cage still holds BB secret. Fiction. No one right

Chelsia was escorted out of the jury house by security. Fiction. Sharon only one right, takes lead.

Number 8 has a secret meaning in BB game. Fiction. Sharon and Ryan right.

Amanda faked an illness to win over housemates. Fiction, all right.

James and Chelsia have stopped speaking to each other at jury house. Fiction, all right.

Third pre-existing relationship STILL in house? FACT One still in the house!

Ryan and Sharon to a tiebreaker. HOH comp Glass Houses, how many total combined minutes did all stay in their boxes.

Argh. Ryan won HOH. They're more wondering about a previous relationship in the house.

I wonder if the guinea pigs are the other relationship. ;-)
