Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds, Daytime Wednesday, July 21

HOH camera time

Ho-hum, another day in that Big Brother House of Boozing Bores ...

• Brendon and Rachel were the first ones up today. Rachel did her hour in the stocks while Brendon catered to her and exercised.
• Afterward, Brendon and Rachel were having sex play under the covers when Kathy walked in.
• Kathy has a habit of doing that and seems oblivious to it all.
• I forgot to mention that last night Hayden told Kristen that he thinks America probably hates Brendon and Rachel.
• From the mouths of babes ...
• I don't actually HATE Brendon and Rachel, not even just Rachel. Her jumping on Brendon right off and party gal ways don't mesh well with me.
• Maybe I'm just a prude!
• Maybe I'm jealous.
• Yeah, right. At least I've had real red hair all my life!
• Ragan thinks the HOH comp will be endurance. He could very well be right. The first endurance comp is usually two to three weeks in if memory serves.
• Lots and lots of small talk, non-game related.
• The camera, Rachel's blog entry, and the tweet are today.
• Although Monet's been campaigning hard and Rachel has indicated she's thinking of keeping her, I think the votes will be for her to go.
• Stop back in a bit for the blog party as the show airs on the East Coast!
• Bring snacks, please.

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Into Wednesday, July 21

He's not drunk, he's just Enzo.

I realize I didn't want a weird twist this summer. But, without a twist, this group is way too dull. Now, had they had actual diversity in the casting -- ages, races, etc. -- the house would have more action. This group, despite the cattiness and little quibbles, gets along way too well.

Here are the events since my last report:

• There was a banner plane! Unfortunately it was some kind of advertising, nothing to do with the house. I saw a banner plane in NJ and thought of them.
• Monet continues to campaign.
• Kristen told Britney she and Monet had to stop saying they had her vote.
• Britney denied saying that.
  
• I haven't seen anyone other than Britney outright say Monet had their vote to stay.
• Kathy, accused of starting the rumor about the vote, got them together to confront Britney.
• Rachel admitted to Britney that her goal is to have Monet evicted -- they don't need Britney making more drama and Monet has the ten grand she won, so she won't go empty-handed.
• Matt, in his continued odd strategy, insisted to Ragan that the HoH group wants to flip the vote (and send him home).
• Monet got all upset over the Kristen vote kerfuffle and started crying.
• Monet said that Rachel told her she was targeted because she didn't even bother talking to her for 13 days.
• I don't know. It's kind of hard to talk to Rachel when she's doing the hanky-panky with Brendon a good part of each day!
• Then Britney thought she was being attacked, so she cried.
• Enzo told them there's no crying in Big Brother.
  
• Gee, I thought he knew the show. I guess not!
• After saying that Kathy screamed at her, Britney cried to Kathy that Rachel never liked her.
• @@
• Britney cried some more.
• Brendon and Rachel went over the pros and cons of keeping Matt or Monet.
• Rachel told Ragan (Matt's new bestest info-buddy) that she thinks Matt is this season's Ronnie playing both sides of the house.
• She's right, but Ragan doesn't think so.
• Matt told Rachel he thinks she's gone on a power trip with the HOH win and that she's strong-arming people.
• Monet accused Matt of volunteering to go on the block only to save Andrew.
• Matt denied being in any alliances in the house.
• If the Brigade could have looked up in the air and whistled, they would have done so.
• The Brigade remains a secret alliance, not even Kristen knows.
• Monet told them that they're after her for the ten thousand, but it's Matt they should worry about because he's fooling them all.
• Britney told Matt that she feels like she's in the middle and likes him.
• Britney told Ragan that she likes Matt, hates confrontation and was led to believe Matt was starting drama about her.
• The Brigade confirmed they would keep Matt and are pleased that they're still a secret.
• Britney doesn't like it when her name is tarnished. Maybe she shouldn't be so catty about others? Then she wouldn't be in the middle of drama as much.
• Those are my thoughts, of course. Britney doesn't think she herself could ever be catty.
• Rachel told Matt he'd have to secure Brendon't vote.
• Rachel cried.
• She told Matt that she just wanted to get to the jury house ... with Brendon.
• Rachel and Brendon think Enzo is the least of their worries. No one seems to worry much about Enzo.
• That's a good thing for Enzo, eh?
• Rachel told Brendon that she'd kind of like to see Monet and Britney play next week and they probably wouldn't target either of them.
• Yeah, right.
• BB gave them alcohol, only for the Haves.
• Matt drank a bottle of wine all by himself and staggered a lot.
• Kristen also got drunk.
• Not as drunk as Matt, though.
• Then it was time for the showmances to get some undercover action in.
• They're all asleep as I post this. I believe the vote will still be to evict Monet despite the Brendon/Rachel hedging right now.
  

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Tuesday Daytime, July 20

ATTENTION: Allison Grodner -- You need to do SOMETHING to liven this season up! You picked a cast for which there is no controversy other than cattiness. Your most "dangerous" character is Enzo and that's all persona rather than anything else. We always complain that it's boring in the beginning of the season, but this year we mean it. Showmances are nothing. We have computers. If we wanted to watch porn online, we could. We're here for Big Brother. Your big saboteur idea was blown to dust after one week. Have you nothing else planned?

Another day of virtually nothing on the feeds. Here's the scoop (or lack thereof):

• Matt's using Ragan for information.
• Lane is using Britney for information.
• Brendon and Rachel are using each other for sex toys.
• Brendon thinks that Enzo has no alliances except perhaps with Britney.
• He's wrong.
• Brendon, Kathy and Rachel think Matt's a liar and playing both sides of the house.
• He is, but he's not as annoying as some in the past.
• Matt is reminding me of Ray Romano at times. He shouldn't -- wrong accent and all. Yet it happens.
• Not everyone loved Raymond. Not everyone loves Matt.
• Monet tried to make nicey-nice with Kathy.
• Later Kathy, Brendon, and Rachel talked about how lazy and dependent on her parents Monet is. She has no job, lives off her parents, etc., etc.
• Hayden told Monet that he heard Rachel was thinking of backdooring Matt.
• Ain't gonna happen. Monet's the target although they don't care much for Matt, either.
• Matt has the Brigade behind him and, for some reason, no one is seeing that Boy Alliance Band.
• That's all she wrote. Meow.
  

I feel like Kathy's expression.

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Into Tuesday Dawn, July 20

Monet and Rachel take stock in their living situation. Heehee. Apparently something in the recent comp (blocked to the live feeds) has the hamsters doing the stocks daily, some up to four days.

Here are the happenings from that Big Brother House Which NEEDS To Come to Life:

• They complained that they're bored. Well, now. That's a big surprise!
• Brendon still wants to cook for the others even though he's a Have Not.
• Some played pool, others played word games.
• Hayden and Kristen were off camera a lot. I wonder what games they were playing?
• Monet and Britney got all catty again. They talked of Britney looking like a hoochie with her double chin, stealing Kathy's cigarettes. Hoochie Mama!
  
• Brendon and Rachel, who have had tiffs, plan to stretch their last fight to lessen the target on them.
• Britney fussed about how little they're earning on the show.
• My heart goes out to her. Or not.
• As in past seasons, a spider has been adopted by some (not all) of the hamsters.
• Brendon and Rachel made out ... again.
• Enzo created a slop dish which he calls pastina. Lane gave it a try and declared it good.
• Many have noticed that Kathy is definitely just following the power in the house. This week she's Rachel's buddy, last week not so much.
• Kristen and Hayden have been discovered by the camera ... in bed. Who woulda thunk it?
• Ragan likes Matt as a pal. But now others are telling him how Matt's playing both sides of the house. Ragan wants to be friends with who he wants to be friends with and that's that!
• Ragan thinks Brendon is a snake and Kathy is a floater, especially after she told him she wasn't trying to win.
• Matt says he wanted to be nominated to avoid being bullied by Rachel and Brendon, plus sparing the decision of who to vote for this week.
• Yeah, right. I'm sure he has his motives, but volunteering to go on the block is a pretty drastic step!
• Ragan, a floater himself, thinks that Kathy needs to go or she'll float her way to the win.
• Matt thinks Brendon and Rachel need to be split up.
• Well, duh. They had their chance and blew it.
• Hayden and Kristen want Britney nominated.
• So do I.
• Hayden and Kristen did a lot of undercover actions. They must be on a mission, eh?
• All are asleep as I get this posted.
  

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds - PoV Meeting - Into Monday Evening, July 19

I could have posted this morning. But how much can I say ... about this?


Sigh. At least something happened today instead of showmance lust and small talk. They had the PoV meeting. Britney saved herself and Matt (who volunteered) went up in her place. What else happened in Happy Hamsterland?

• Hayden and Kristen are getting almost as bad as Rachel and Brendon.
• But ... shhh ... it's a secret.
• Britney said that Rachel says there are enough votes to keep Matt in the house.
• Matt says he's worried. (Then why the heck did he even throw his name in there? Rachel hadn't even been considering him before that!)
• Matt told Monet he will campaign to stay but won't slander her.
• Monet and Britney had another catty session. This time they even trashed the pores on Rachel's legs.
• Can you say meow?
• After a solid session of trashing all, but mainly Rachel, Monet went off to go cry alone.
• I don't feel sorry for her.
• Lane told Monet that Enzo's been sneaking cheese. No, not a sneaking cheese, although that description might fit! He told Monet she should try cheese if she's hungry.
• Matt and Ragan are buddies, but not a bromance.
  

If you'd like to give it a read, my review of last night's show is up on TV Squad.
