Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Into Thursday, September 2

Sigh.

Here are the late night and overnight events from inside that Big Brother House of Harried Hamsters:

• The sigh isn't over Ragan's likelihood of leaving tonight.
• It's over him analyzing himself and the season.
• It's his own version of talking to the Internet.
• But it's definitely not like when either Dr. Will or Evel Dick did it.
• It's like he's on a psychiatrist's couch and we're the shrink.
• I feel like spinning the hammock upside down.
• Argh.
• I really don't want to hear him go on about his father who passed away some time back. It's fine to touch on it, but do I really need a biography?
• Britney said the show is getting the best ratings ever as per the diary room.
• Really?
• Hayden thinks Britney will have an advantage if the HOH comp is a quiz.
• Yep, she will.
• They're all asleep as I post this.
  

Big Brother 12 - Wednesday Live Feeds - September 1

The big excitement of the day ...
Lane caught a praying mantis on his foam paddle.
And tried to sic it on Enzo.
Instead, it jumped at Lane.
He screamed and ran.
Well, not really screamed, but ...

Alas, this was more the norm for the day.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Lazy Lazabouts:

• Britney has taken over the cleaning. She even scrubbed down the counters in the storage room.
• She doesn't do windows, nor clutter in the bedrooms.
• Lane got his HOH camera. Fun, fun, fun.
• Ragan is really annoying me and creeping me out.
• He still can't get off the Rachel thing.
  
• He needs to go.
• Now.
• Okay, if not now, tomorrow.
• He also said that since he's a celebrity, he had to verify his Twitter account.
• @@
• They napped a lot.
• And that's it.
  

Big Brother - Power of Veto Show Blog Party Post - September 1

The show is about to start here on the East Coast. As it airs, I'll post important updates in this entry. But the real fun is in the comments section. Everyone is invited to join in with your thoughts! Later tonight (or, worst case scenario, early in the morning), my full show review will be posted over on TV Squad.

Tomorrow night might present a programming dilemma for many of the readers ... and definitely for myself. In this area (NYC metro viewing area), no CBS affiliate will air the live eviction show before 1:37 AM ET. I'm hoping that one of the sites which airs the East Coast feed will have it at 8 PM ET. If not, I'll put up a post anyway, but will have to watch and write up the episode for TVS in the middle of the night. Then I'll have to go to work.

I don't like football and certainly don't like pre-season games messing with my shows!

Lane out first round of Otev veto. Hayden out. Britney out. Enzo wins veto! Fearing the others night turn on Britney, Lane put up Hayden in Enzo's place.

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Into Wednesday Dawn - September 1

Finally, something other than pool -- moon sand!

Finally, dishes are getting washed!
They must have run out of clean dishes, I say.

Here's the latest news from inside that Big Brother House of Arrested Development:

• I last told you of Ragan's attempt, with pretty valid points, to keep himself in the house.
• Instead of actually wanting to win the half-million, Lane told Hayden and Enzo all about the plan and it became a running joke.
• Of course, we won't really know anything until Thursday night if indeed there is a tie.
• They are playing on Hayden's insecurities (although his insecurities are nowhere near as intense as Ragan's insecurities), but I do think that Hayden thinks they're joking and he'll be staying.
• Britney (why must it be the girl?) decided it was time to wash the dishes since there's a virtual mountain of them.
• She complained about how long it takes to wash dishes.
• I don't know. If you do them after each meal, it really doesn't take long even when you do them by hand.
• Like anything else, if you let it pile up, it's going to be a much larger task.
• Silly hamsters.
• Hayden volunteered to dry.
• Britney made up some of her HOH Hamburger Helper for dinner -- mixing the Cheesy Macaroni with the Stroganoff.
• If I have Hamburger Helper, I personally go for the Beef Pasta one.
• But that's just me.
• Another evening of boredom and trashing people.
• Ragan just can't get off the Rachel trashing. Heck, she's been out of the house for weeks now!
• I liked when Britney and Ragan were mocking Kathy, Enzo spoke up and said how nice Kathy was and that he liked her.
• The real excitement came when Enzo went in the storage room and came out with Moon Sand.
• Like little kids, they all gathered around and played.
• Enzo said he wanted to claim a steak or stake a claim or whatever it is.
• I know it's stake a claim.
• But Enzo is easily confused with words. It's part of his charm.
• They're all asleep as I post this.
• And, the dishes are clean.
• Wow.
  

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Tuesday Daytime - August 31

Ragan goes over his speech to Lane with Britney.

Apparently Ragan hasn't lost all his fight within himself to stay in the game. Here are today's happenings from inside that Big Brother House of Circling Helicopters:

• After moping, fussing and curling up in a fetal ball, the fighting Ragan has once again emerged.
• No, not like the cat fight with Rachel.
• Ragan was up first this morning and went over his proposed speech to Lane while alone in the hammock.
• He has good points.
• The assumption is that Hayden will vote Ragan out while Britney will vote out Hayden. (Yes, it's a big assumption.)
• Lane would be the tiebreaker.
• These are Ragan's thoughts, but I can't disagree with him -- if Lane is in the final two with either Enzo or Hayden, he loses. No matter what, he can't beat either of the two.
• But, if he's in the final two with either Britney or Ragan, he should definitely carry the jury votes for the big win.
• If the question is posed about never making a power move, this would be it for Lane.
• Ragan practiced and repracticed his speech, then told Britney.
• Britney thinks the best she can do is second place despite the fact "the boys" are saying she'd win at the end.
• No, one of them would win against her with the jury votes.
• Britney against anyone but Ragan would lose the big money.
• Ragan can only get second prize tops. He's just made too many enemies.
• Everyone thinks Enzo is the one that must leave before the final two. He has no blood on his hands, has never been responsible for an eviction and has been friends with every single person in the house.
• Finally Ragan went over his points with Lane.
• Lane nodded a lot.
  
• Although I've grown kind of fond of the Jersey boy, I agree with Ragan. Lane won't win against either Hayden or Enzo.
• It seems like he's seriously considering it.
• He told Britney he wants to take her to the final two.
• Of course, Lane and Hayden have a final two pact.
• If Hayden gets voted out this week, the three working against Enzo (who's bad in comps) should easily knock him out of the game.
• Lane told Britney that Hayden won the trip and the money in that PoV game.
• She told him she wouldn't say anything.
• She already had a clue because Hayden is the only one who asked if the jury would know who took the prizes.
• In other house news, for some reason there are a lot of helicopters in the area.
• Also, someone on the CBS lot yelled Ragan's name. The feeds cut away when that happened.
  
• In my own house news, I really need to eat dinner.
• Later!
