Big Brother 11 Live Feeds - Nominations 8/07

Pretty much as expected,Chima nominated Russell and Lydia for eviction.

Big Brother 11 Live Feeds - Have - Have Not Held 8/07

The feeds were down while the Have - Have Not played out. Four people are in the Have Not room. Jeff is grumpy. Jordan did well. There were limes all over the table - the liver and limes duo must have been voted in. The comp had them squishing and packing stuff in a car (cart?).

Jeff is definitely on slop. Someone (or two) won a movie. They're talking that if Jeff's team had a surfboard, they would have won. They also didn't see the squishy animals. No, I'm not talking about Ronnie.

Jordan and Jeff were on separate teams. I think Jeff's partners in slop have to be Lydia, Kevin, and Michele. Natalie, Jessie, Jordan definitely not on slop. I think from what they're saying, Chima is a Have. Russell must be a Have as they mentioned he'll be the only one drinking beer.

They saw Jeremy Piven, too. So it must be his latest movie.

Big Brother 11 Live Feeds Into the Dawn Friday 8/07

There's a new head of house, but the cloud of the coup d'etat hangs over any decisions made this week. Chima, Natalie, and Jessie think that Jordan has the power. Here are the evening's happenings into the dawn from that Big Brother House of French Phrases:

• Kevin mentioned that the remaining houseguests are all on the jury now. For me, that would have been reason enough to oust Ronnie. I would NOT want an extended vacation with that twerp! Jessie's a stronger player and possibly a threat, but he's nowhere near as personally annoying as Ronnie.
• Chima told Kevin she'd have him host the PoV comp and she won't put him on the block.
• Natalie is a bit offended by the makeover question and answer on the live show.
• Jeff thinks that Russell ended up sad over the Ronnie eviction -- Ronnie had been giving Russell a lot of game advice and things had changed between them between nomination and eviction.
• Jeff and Jordan are still thrilled with Ronnie's eviction.
• Jeff told Jordan that if they're put on the block, they'll know it came directly from Natalie and Jessie.
• Lydia told Jeff that she knows he has the power and he's a good actor. He denied it.
• Chima says she won't put up Jessie, Natalie, Jordan, Jeff, or Kevin. Um ... that leaves Russell, Lydia, or Michele.
• Jessie is gleeful over getting past week four.
• I really should use "gleeful" more often. It's a fun word.
• Natalie is sure either Jordan or Jeff have the power. She kept bulldogging them about making three enemies if they use it.
• Michele and Kevin hope the power won't bring back a houseguest. No way do they want Ronnie in the house again.
• Natalie and Jordan talked about how cute Drew (BB5) was. Natalie thinks both Jessie and Jeff are very cute. At least she knows cute (when it comes to Jeff!).
• Michele told Jeff that Natalie must think he has the wizard power because she's been saying he's cute for the past two days.
• Heh.
• Chima got her HOH room -- cornmeal, photos which didn't thrill her a lot, a letter from home. Lots of fake smiles.
• Chima said that her baby picture proves she was born with her lips, they're not surgically enhanced.
• Chima was a bit upset that the letter was "old." It was stamped with a date and apparently BB must ask all the family members to write them at the beginning of the season.
• Chima and Jessie told Russell that his personal beef with Ronnie cost them numbers.
• Meanwhile, Chima is quite adamant that she'd like to put Russell on the block.
• Russell apologized once again to Chima and mentioned that he apologized in the Julie Chen HOH talk, too.
• Kevin has broken out in a rash. He sees the dermatologist later today. He's hoping it's not measles or chicken pox.
• Don't they have vaccinations for both of those things these days? Wouldn't he have immunity?
  
• I think it could be a stress reaction to being in a house of fools. But I'm no doctor. I don't even play one on TV.
• Jeff, Jordan, and Michele noted that Russelll is spending time with the others now that they have the power once again.
• Natalie is still campaigning to get Lydia away from Jessie. She'd like to see her on the block.
• Jessie says that if he goes against Lydia, he goes against two people -- Lydia and Kevin.
• Natalie told Jeff she knows he doesn't have the coup d'etat. She thinks Jordan won it.
• Jessie and Natalie argued about the virtues of Lydia.
• It looks to me like Chima will most likely put Russell and Michele on the block. We'll know later tonight.
• I leave you with a cup of tea to get your day going.
  

So You Think You Can Dance Finale Bulletin

Sigh. My favorite for the win came in second -- Brandon. Janine won the season. Sniffle.

Big Brother 11 Live Eviction Show Blog Party 8/06

The show has started here on the East Coast. As it airs, this post will be updated with the major events. Later on tonight, my full review of the episode will be up on TV Squad. But ... (and here's where you come in) ... the real fun is in the comments! Everyone's welcome to participate, snack, and imbibe. Just clean up your own messes! Please remember the houseguests are fair game for criticism, but your fellow commenters aren't. Merci!

A huge thank you goes to Zoetawny for the Ronnie is a Rat graphic!

Jeff won the coup d'etat. :-) He wisely chose to leave tonight's nominations stand.

The voting to evict:
Kevin --> Ronnie
Natalie --> Lydia
Chima --> Lydia
Jessie --> Lydia
Michele --> Ronnie
Jeff --> Ronnie
Jordan --> Ronnie

By a vote of 4-3, Ronnie is evicted.

CHIMA won HOH based on the calls from last night memory.
