Big Brother 11 Live Feeds Into Monday Dawn 7/13

Yes, hamsters are still up in the Habitrail. This is a group of night owls, albeit not really drinking to excess as some in previous years. Before I get on with the report, I need to mention the horror that is Jessie's HOH Twitter page. Sigh. Some people shouldn't Twitter.

Here's the skinny from the Big Brother House of Special Snowflakes:

• Chima thinks that if she goes home, Jeff gets to switch to the Brainy Bunch. I don't know for sure if it works that way, but it would even the playing field and Jeff would be happier.
• They said Braden was "chill" during the POV ceremony.
• Natalie defended Chima to Russell, saying she could see herself hanging out with her and she was no threat to their alliance.
• Not sure why she felt the need to defend Chima, though. Russell was originally on the "get rid of Lydia" train.
• Lydia and Kevin think Natalie is falling for Jessie, but that Jessie isn't falling for Natalie.
• Jessie said that Jordan's butt isn't big enough for his liking. @@ As if!
• Lots of small talk in the backyard and it's still going on as I get this posted.
  

Big Brother 11 Live Feeds Into the Evening Sunday 7/12

The bosom body buddies discuss their well-muscled futures. However, the expression on Michele's face below better portrays how I feel about the feeds tonight.


Yep, that's how I feel! Here's what's happened since the POV ceremony in that Big Brother House of High School Nightmares:

• Jessie wants his own action figure. I have no words to describe how I feel about that.
• Braden doesn't think they'll stay in cliques very long. He has a point. I'm shocked. I didn't expect it from him.
• The cliques are messing with the hamsters voting the way they would under normal circumstances.
• They CAN vote out a member of their own clique, but many have promised not to do so.
• Braden tried a rather mellow laidback campaign to save himself.
• Kevin says he's going to vote out Braden because he thinks Braden hasn't approached him as a friend because he's gay.
• I don't think that's Braden's issue with him.
• These gals, for the most part, are wearing too much make-up.
• Eh, they're cooking dinner.
• They're being boring. They need to quit that.
  

Big Brother 11 Nominations Show Blog Party 7/12

The show is delayed here in the NYC viewing area. But that doesn't mean we can't start the party without the hamsters! Once the show starts and as it airs here, I'll update this post with the major happenings.

But the real fun is in the comments. You're all invited to join in!

8:12 PM ET and the show is starting ... recap time!

High school nightmares and Ronnie makes a deal with the devil. Makes a deal with Jessie, I mean. Oh, I don't think he likes him.

Uh-oh, the jocks want a pawn from the brains. Ronnie in no way will be a pawn. He knows the history of pawns on the show. Chima isn't thrilled, but asks for the promise that she'll be okay.

BB rave - the Have/Have Not comp is AWN. Off Beat is SAFE. Popular is safe. The Brains lost the cmp. Sheesh.

Chima is super upset, there's the sore loser! The room is mats on the floor, like an insane asylum according to Chima.

Chima and Lydia are on the block, Chima supposedly as a pawn. Lydia is in tears and vows to fight.

Big Brother 11 Live Feeds - POV Ceremony Over 7/12

As expected, Russell saved Lydia with the PoV. In her place, Jessie put Braden on the block. Kevin already promised Chima he wouldn't vote her out.

Words of wisdom from Casey, "Lydia, don't put your business out on the streets."

Michele also says she can't vote Chima out "because she's on my team." Jordan is all teary and upset -- she likens the situation to back when all the hamsters were scared to cross the Four Horsemen, Jesse and buddies have too much power in the house.

Me? I'm just glad that there's no helium voice or shrieking hamsters on the feeds this year.

Hmm ... Braden has a court case coming up? Why did he go on the show?

Another Casey gem -- "You don't play cards with the face up."

Big Brother Word of the Day: Introducements (Natalie, meaning introductions)

Big Brother 11 Live Feeds Quickie Sunday 7/12

The houseguests are awake. Alas, now ALL of the cameras are on Jessie and Natalie again. I hate that.

They were told to get "camera ready." But I don't think anything major is on the agenda today other than the POV ceremony.

Carry on.
