Big Brother 10: Live Feeds Late Into the Night


They're talking about how weird Renny is and how she gives a shout-out to every race and practically every person in the world. "Here's a shout-out to my peeps at Walgreens!" They think she's very odd.

Here's what's been going on inside that Big Brother House of I Can't Get These Names Straight Yet:
  • Keesha and April discussed how they think Dan needs to go. Keesha thinks he could very well win it all and is scared. April thinks Steven should go after Dan.
  • See, Steven, I warned you not to hang out with Dan!
  • Keesha and April were talking about Playboy when Ollie said "classy shouldn't be used in the same sentence with Playboy." At least some home training has stayed with him.
  • According to what Ollie said, this week's eviction votes will be live. They're usually taped when so many are still in the house.
  • There is now an Ollie, April, Keesha, Michelle, and Libra alliance.
  • Renny gave a shout-out to her Asian friends at the nail shop. @@
  • Brian is planning to campaign for votes on Tuesday.
  • Steven and Libra have cooled down with their disagreements. Steven thought he may have made a mistake going in the house because he doesn't like drama and she told him it may have been her fault.
  • Michelle told Jessie that she thinks Steven needs to go because he's into everything and everyone.
  • Ollie apologized to Dan (for betraying the alliance).
  • This is getting sickening!
  • The houseguests want games or cards.
  • Jerry isn't apologizing to Brian. "He screwed me."
  • BB gave them beer and wine again.
  • Jerry thinks that Libra's arrogance will get him in trouble just as his own arrogance did for him.
  • Angie cried because Jerry called her a psycho.
  • Brian consoled her and actually was very sweet about it.
  • Libra told Angie that she didn't think Jerry meant it.
  • Jessie and Michelle think Angie is too close with Brian.
  • Jerry apologized to Angie for calling her a psycho -- he said he didn't mean it in a bad way. (Yeah, right!)
  • Renny cried today too. Hey, maybe Amber will drop by to counsel them!
  • Steven plans to do Slopformercials during tomorrow's BBAD.
  • Steven made sock puppets, put on a show, and all are giggling now. Well, all of those who are still up.

The Closer - 4th Season Premiere Tonight


If you're like me, not into The Mole, there's the season premiere of The Closer tonight at 9 PM ET/PT on TNT. I was lucky enough to receive the first episode in a promotional package from the network. No, I won't divulge the plot, but I was indeed entertained. And now I have something that I enjoy watching on Monday nights. Woohoo for that!

Latest BB10 Live Feeds


I took this screen cap a few minutes ago as they gathered in a bedroom. My latest feeds report is up over on TV Squad. It includes a gallery with screen caps I took in the wee hours and some from this afternoon. They're a talkative house. In a way, I'll be glad when the numbers get down a little.

I'll be posting another report here later tonight after the hamsters do a bit more!

Big Brother 10: Live Feeds Report First Night


After a rough start with volume issues, the feeds kicked off around midnight ET. They've already been in the house for six days, so we've missed quite a bit. Right now I'm still matching names to faces, the voices can still get confusing, and there's way too many people talking at once. But, hey ... it's a new season.

Here's the skinny:
  • They've already played the POV comp and had the POV meeting. They haven't talked about the comp itself so I have no clue.
  • The POV necklace is on Jerry's picture on the Memory Wall, so he won.
  • Aha ... he put BRIAN on the block in place of Jessie from what I can tell in conversations.
  • So it's Renny (most likely) and Brian nominated for eviction this week.
  • Lots and lots of small talk when they're in larger groups.
  • Brian and Dan are still scheming together. Brian seems worried that someone whose vote they thought they had might be flopping -- Keesha.
  • Libra only drinks wine, no beer. BB will be giving them wine and beer tonight.
  • Brian and Dan think Jerry is easily manipulated by the girls.
  • Renny is still the laughing stock of the house. (She does it to herself, odd duck she is.)
  • BB is giving them a feast and all are off slop for it.
  • Jerry told Dan that Brian betrayed him by not telling him that he had an alliance with Ollie and Dan. He thinks Brian was using him. (Yes, he was!)
  • Steven in particular, and others are getting irked at Libra's controlling ways.
  • Jerry's CD was a Glenn Miller one.
  • Michelle told Angie that Jessie told her he thinks she's (Michelle) a threat.
  • Renny keeps changing into new costumes. (She's probably worried about eviction and wants to show all her wigs and costumes!)
  • Jerry told a group in the kitchen about how Brian used his military experience to gain his trust then betrayed him. Meanwhile, Brian could overhear the conversation from the bathroom. The plot thickens.
  • The HG know Steven is gay. Steven was a bit irked that he had told Libra in confidence and she went on to tell Keesha.
  • Their big dinner at midnight ET was chaos -- everyone talking at once.
  • Afterwards Steven complained about Libra telling people they shouldn't have both beer and wine. Control, control.
  • Memphis bragged that when he was a model, the girls were all over him. @@
  • Dan, Brian, and Steven think Libra has gone for power and she must go.
  • Libra cried and Jerry and Angie comforted her. She's missing her children and her aging grandmother.
That's it for now. They're still up but nothing major going on.

Big Brother 10 Season Premiere Live Blogged from the East Coast

jackie's tv blog, Big Brother, BB10

Zoetawny has made yet another new BB10 blog logo for us ... yay! The show has started here on the East Coast. I'll be constantly updating this entry as it airs and invite everyone to jump in down in the comments section. There may be some typos -- I'm typing as I watch TV. Plus, I'm not too familiar with the houseguests yet. But I'm ready!

Julie Chen is in summer mode with a coral strapless dress ... no winter biker boots for her this time of year! We're in an intro with bits of a house tour and the rules of the game. The outside of the house has been redone with all kinds of flowers and shrubbery. It seems that Julie's bits will be right outside the door. Again, we're told that the game began before they entered the house.

Now they're getting their keys.

They're gathered on the entryway to the house getting the first good look at their competition. Julie tells them they must choose the HOH before anyone moves into the house. They must go on appearance and gut instinct. They cannot vote for themselves. Julie says it will remain a mystery ... for now.

Five enter the house -- April, Dan, Renny, (April tells us she voted Renny HOH). Four more enter the house. The final four enter. April now tells us she's having second thoughts about Renny. Angie also thinks Renny is rude. Keesha tells us she voted Jerry HOH. Now they're all introducing themselves.

Jessie thinks Renny is annoying, too. Dan tells us he'll erase any sins he commits in the house by going to Confession later. Angie is already telling everyone her boobs are real and inviting them to feel them. @@ Renny, who seems to have rubbed many wrong already in the house, thought it was totally inappropriate that Jerry felt Angie's boobs.

Julie's back. She tells us there is more up for grabs in addition to the HOH tonight. They're about to compete in their first competition. "The prize will be a classic." Jessie volunteered to sit out as they need an even number. They have to go to the storage room, get their gear on and meet Julie in the yard. Two upside-down VW bugs, two right side up classic cars. Up for grabs, one of the classic (muscle) cars. Now Jessie is unhappy.

"Bugging Out" - A car race in the sky. The teams must get in one of the VWs, transport gas can to the end. Each time they do it, a team member must leave and not get a chance to win. The teams are also playing for food. Jessie will eat no matter what.

Red team - Renny, Angie, Memphis, Steven, Dan, Michelle, Memphis wins the car and the red team wins food for the week. He chooses the 1969 Camaro.

Julie is ready to reveal the HOH ... 3 votes and second was Renny. With four votes, the first HOH is Jerry. In les than 24 hours he has to nominate two HG for eviction.

Dan thinks he can trust Brian and apporaches him. Now he's working on Ollie. He looked in Ollie's eyes and "saw the blacks of his eyes" and knew he was in with him. The BLACKS of his eyes? @@

Jerry's HOH room -- more happy than most because they voted for him. Photos of his wife. Jerry thinks he has a good chance of staying in the game and playing hard.

In the dark, Renny further annoys people screaming that the door is locked. Her laugh is worse than her voice. In the morning, Jessie complains to her and she tells him to lighten up. She tells us he's a baby. Brian laughs.

They have special music for Renny. The guys are laughing about her. Memphis, Brian, and Dan. Brian and Dan want Jessie and Renny nominated. Brian tries to work on him. Jerry is looking for a committment from Brian in an alliance. Brian tells us he's not all that loyal. Heh. Jerry thinks Dan is a loose cannon. Brian asks that he come in with them. Jerry likes Jessie, but seems to go with Brian's plan to nominate Renny and Jessie.

Noiminations are tough for Jerry. Key order -- Michelle, Angie, Memphis, Libra, April, Brian, Steven, Keesha, Ollie, Dan. Rennie and Jessie are indeed up. Jerry says it was due to the conflict the night before.

Jerry tells us he thinks Jessie and Renny will self-destruct.

I think I'm already liking this better than I liked the start of BB9. But I hope someone knocks Dan down soon.
