Big Brother 10: 7/15 Show Live Blogged from the East Coast

jackie's tv blog, Big Brother, BB10

The show has started here on the East Coast. As it airs I'll be constantly updating this post. To see the latest, refresh your page. Later on tonight my full review/recap of the show will be up over on TV Squad. Please forgive any errors or typos in this entry -- I'm typing as I watch the television.

It's recap time! Oh, a betrayal will turn the house upside down! Can you imagine that? Whatever could it be? ;-)

More recap -- now Jerry is telling the why behind his nominations again. Day 2? Not in real life! Jerry mentions Brian promised loyalty to the end. Renny and Jessie don't think they should be on the block. Renny thinks it wasn't a big deal and Jessie blames her. She thinks he's a punk (in the DR).

Jerry is telling the story of Solomon cutting the baby in half? Weird analogy for the situation. Jessie is confused ... he doesn't even know the tale. Renny is walking around saying he's a weasel and she did like him. She claims he's acting like a baby as she pouts at the table. So, she confronts him. Brian is listening and trying not to giggle. She keeps telling him how immature he is and how he walks away. So he walks away.

Brian, Ollie, and Dan make a toast to voting their way this week. I believe that would be Jessie.

Now they're all in the HOH room drinking wine. Renny is still fussing. She confronts Jessie, then apologizes for waking him up. He told her it took her a day and a half to apologize. She calls him a liar. She claims she apologized that night.

Brian tells Michelle and Ollie that Renny will self-destruct at some point. He tries to sway them to vote out Jessie because he's mor of a threat. He gloats in the DR. Now he works on Angie, telling her that Jerry has done everything he's wanted him to do from the start. He works on Steven. He works on Memphis. He's promising them all safety.

Dan, Brian, and Ollie are talking. Brian saved Dan, y'know. He rules the house ... in his mind. No wonder Jerry thinks he's a traitor.

Uh-oh ... looks like the April and Ollie showmance is about to start. Flirty, flirty. Time to pick players for the POV comp - six players. Pulling chips from bag. Jerry pulls Memphis. Renny gets Michelle. Jessie gets April. The host is Angie. They have to put on sleepwear.

The yard is a giant bed with toss pillows -- strange bedfellows. Colored veto bears -- they must find their color, five of them and return them to a jar. They have to squirm through honey to get to the bed. The non-bear pillows are feathers sticking to them. Renny is dragging and not into it at all. Memphis claims the honey is 75 to 80 pounds more than they normally carry. I doubt that.

Now, this isn't looking like Jerry will win. Jessie wins POV! Why was the POV necklace on Jerry's pic in the feeds? Maybe a red herring? Brian thinks he can get Jerry to put up whomever he wants him to in place of Jessie.

Now Brian is telling Jerry Memphis has to go. Jerry seems to play along and tells Brian they'll make Memphis think Renny is going home. He tells Ollie, Renny, the blonds that Memphis is going home. Renny and the blond see right through Brian. Now Keesha tells Angie and Michelle about Brian. A movement is afoot!

Libra is pointing out Ollie's evil side (Brian) to April. She's upset and wants to confront Ollie. Libra asks Ollie point blank if he's with Brian and Dan. He tells them he's not against them. Ollie tells them the Brian/Dan thing was on day one. He says he's loyal to April. Ollie tells them if Brian is playing them all, flip it over.

Ollie tells Memphis that they're going to backdoor him and Brian is behind it all.Libra thinks all nine of them should go to Jerry and tell him about Brian. Lots of scheming to oust cocky Brian. Now they have Jerry there. "Let's start the revolution." Ollie is the spokesman for the group. Poor Jerry.

Jerry thinks they're one huge alliance. They tell him he won't go on the block next week. He's unsure.

The POV box is open and Jessie tells us he will use it. Jerry isn't wearing anything military because he has to go back on his word. Brian is still cocky and thinks Memphis will go on the block. Time for the veto ceremony.

Jessie talks. Rennie says that Jessie made a target of himslf and the situation wouldn't be if he didn't. She doesn't expect him to use it on her. Jessie saves himself. Jessie is uncomfortable. He formed an alliance he wanted to be loyal to the end, but the person had other alliances, eight people came to his room, they chose who they want put up and to leave ... he nominates Brian. Brian looks very pensive. Dan thinks it's a dumfounded thing. Ollie claims credit for it all.

Brian was a mystery, now he's history -- Libra.

Brian gives kudos to whoever orchestrated this but claims he has some tricks up his sleeve.

Latest BB10 Live Feeds and Tonight's BB Blogging

My latest live feeds report is up over on TV Squad. I'll be live blogging tonight's show from here on the East Coast, then writing a review/recap of the show for TVS. And then it will be time for more live feeds!

Uh-oh, I better fix an early dinner. Or take a nap.

Big Brother 10 - Sockpuppet Eviction

Alas, I had to scramble to set up my new BBreloader to record, so I missed recording the beginning of this. But here's what I caught. Beware -- crude language as Memphis, Steven, Angie, Brian, and Dan put on a sock puppet eviction with a twist at the end. My latest live feeds update is below this one.


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!
