Big Brother 11 Live Feeds Into Saturday Dawn 8/22

Then numbers are dwindling in the house and Jeff's nominations are in. Kevin is a poor lost soul who's looking each moment like he would go for a do-over and pick a different alliance in the beginning of the game. Natalie, on the other hand, spent the first part of the season sleeping all the time with Jessie (while plotting, but still avoiding the rest of the house). Now she's out there mingling and playing her game. The dynamics are changing, but Jeff and Jordan are a constant. As Jeff says, "We're stuck with each other."

Here's the latest from the Big Brother House of Loquacious Louts:

• Jordan has gained 10 pounds while in the house. She's still stinging from the "fat" comment Lydia made about her.
• I don't think she's skinny, but I surely wouldn't call her "fat."
  
• Russell has also gained 10 pounds. But since he's a have-not this week, some of that should go away.
• I think Jeff has lost weight. He was more muscular in the beginning of the season.
• He's still a cutie-patootie.
• After nominations went down, Russell told Jeff he once again owes him -- he won't put him on the block or vote for him to go.
• I think he'll keep his word. But I also think he wouldn't mind if someone else did his dirty work for him. cough:::Michele:::cough
• Kevin tried to make Jordan think that Michele and Russell are bigger threats than he is. Michele and Russell have won comps!
• But, guess what ... Kevin has won, too. He's also often right up there in second place. Compare his record with Natalie and he should be perceived as a greater threat than her. That's basing on comps only.
• I want Kevin to stay merely for his diary room takes on people on the show. In the house, he's nowhere near as insightful or humorous.
• Kevin said his target all along has been Russell while Natalie claims hers was Lydia.
• Neither claim to have ever in their lives been after Jeff and Jordan.
• Jordan's period finally came. You needed to know that.
• Jeff and Jordan argued, she blamed her period. He said he wants a divorce.
• He wants her to focus on her game so they'll go to the final two together.
• They're a hoot when they fight. They'll get snapping at each other, then both will crack up.
• Russell and Michele talked. Russell claims the HOH comp was geared for Kevin to win because it needed a delicate and precise touch. Russell says he himself is a bit clumsy with anything that precise. Michele said they knew she's scared of heights.
• Russell thinks the producers wanted a Kevin win to shake up the house again.
• But Kevin didn't win. Almost doesn't count.
• Jeff thinks they should keep Natalie because she's the weaker player of Natalie and Kevin.
• He probably has a point there although I'd personally prefer Kevin to stick around.
• But they didn't ask me.
• Jeff and Jordan are still talking the possibility of backdooring Russell if the veto is used. I doubt either of the would use the veto, but if someone else wins and either Natalie or Kevin are saved.
• In that scenario, I think they just might vote out Russell.
• Jeff warned Jordan about getting too close and trusting Natalie too much.
• Jeff and Jordan think they need to get Michele in tighter with them and away from Russell.
• As they should because Russell and Michele are still talking about targeting Jeff.
• I'm sure Michele will lie, get flustered, and forget about the most recent Jeff target talk if confronted.
• They're all asleep as I get this posted. Sometime later today, the POV comp will take place.
  

Big Brother 11 Live Feeds Bulletin - Nominations 8/21

As he said he would, Jeff nominated Kevin and Natalie for eviction. Natalie is taking it all in stride, but Kevin is really down. More later. (Long day even the feeds haven't been all that exciting.

Big Brother 11 Live Feeds Into Friday Dawn 8/21

Duh. I kept Natalie in the house. Duh.

I had to do something with the expression on Jeff's face in my screen cap! He won HOH last night, but sheesh ... he kept Natalie over Lydia in the house. What kind of gameplay is that?

My show review and HOH spoilers posts are up over on TV Squad. But, what's been going on lately in the Big Brother House of Benevolent Hohs?

• Heh. Kevin mentioned how stingy with prizes the show is and that caused a feeds blockage. They're so touchy!
• Apparently in the comp, they announced that Kevin was in the lead and he didn't realize how close Jeff was.
• Somehow, they could pause people in the comp. Kevin paused Russell and they claim that's what made for a Jeff win.
• "So, I helped you win. I should be safe," Kevin joked (although probably with hope).
• Natalie told Kevin that Jeff told her she was safe yesterday and she indeed was.
• Russell and Michele are definitely have-nots. Don't ask me why or how. It went down with the blocked live feeds in the comp.
• Jeff was going on an adrenalin rush, but most of the others just wanted to nap last night.
• Lucky Jeff, Michele kept him company!
• Jeff hopes his HOH music is Bob Marley. Hmmm ... not quite what I would have figured him to enjoy.
• Russell told Kevin that being a have not without candy or alcohol is going to kill him. Me? I'd be fussing about the FOOD.
• Well, well. He got his Bob Marley in the HOH room. We jammin.
• One childhood photo with a bowl-cut made Jordan say he looked like the character in Dumb and Dumber.
• Ahem. They kept Natalie. Jordan and Jeff may qualify for the roles in the movie.
• Everyone thought he was a cute child and fun was had for all. And blah, blah, typical HOH room reveal stuff.
• Natalie worked on Jordan. She told her how nervous she already is about going on the block again.
• Jordan questioned Kevin about the physical aspects of gay sex.
• Oh my. I've known so many gay guys over the years and have never, would never, ask.
  
• Natalie told Kevin he should try it with a girl. Now, who's to say that has never happened?
• Jeff and Jordan discussed his nominations. The early plan (always subject to change) is Natalie and Kevin on the block, backdoor Russell if veto is used.
• Not unexpected.
• Michele told Russell she felt threatened by Jeff and Jordan last week -- that's why she said all the stuff about him.
• Um, I thought she didn't remember.
• Michele told Jordan that Russell is acting crazy and paranoid again.
• Ah, so it starts all over once again.
• Will she claim not to remember when she gets confronted?
• What the heck is really going on with Michele and Russell?
• I think they're both sketchy and couldn't tell you which one is sketchier!
• That's it for now. I don't see anything on the schedule except nominations today since they combined the have-have not with the HOH.
• Seize the day!
  

Big Brother 11 HOH Comp Update Post (Live Feeds)

As I get this up, the feeds are still blocked. We know they only have an hour (or to 24 cans). I'll update when we're unblocked.

9:14 PM ET - Feeds on red and another (maybe green) (?) tubes almost full. Argh. Feeds blocked again. I THINK Kevin's tube was one of the ones almost full.

9:33 PM ET Feeds still blocked. The one almost full tube glimpsed was definitely Kevin's. As a commenter pointed out, the other almost full one was the second from the end. -- Russell's.

9:34 back on. Everyone's inside. Not sure who won. Hmm ... they're talking about shutting each other down in the comps. They could use the gold cans, too.

Is that an HOH key JEFF is wearing? Or is it his mic? False alarm ... mic. Still no reveal. It's not Kevin, though.

YES! Jeff just said he won HOH!

Big Brother 11 Live Eviction Show Blog Party Post 8/20

The show has started here on the East Coast. This post will be updated as it airs, but the real fun is in the comments section. Everyone is welcome, bring your own snacks and beverages! Later tonight my show review will be posted on TV Squad.

Lots of filler -- 8:25 PM POV starts. Russell sits out. It's down to Jordan and Michele. JORDAN has won the Power of Veto! She did not use it. The live eviction is next.

The voting to evict:
Russell --> Lydia
Michele --> Lydia
Jeff --> Lydia
Kevin --> Natalie

Lydia is evicted.

HOH is on ... NOT an extensive endurance as many expected. They're dropping cans in tubes. The first to 24 or the one with the most at the end of the hour wins. I'll be updating with a new post from the live feeds when they go on.
