Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Saturday, Sept. 4 - Including POV

Before I get into the news of the day, I'd just like to comment on comments here. Now, the houseguests put themselves in the public eye. I've always allowed opinions both good and bad about them. What I don't allow (and usually remove) are comments about fellow commenters. That's pretty much how I've run the blog year after year.

Of course, I don't want anything slanderous or outright lies about the houseguests -- those will be removed. But they put themselves out there and know that their actions are going to be nitpicked and they're going to be both loved and trashed dependent on how they're perceived by the public. You needn't "defend" your favorite nor try to convince others they're out of line if they don't like them or mock them. We all are free to like or dislike the hamsters and to mock or praise them as we see fit. Not so your fellow posters on the blog -- I don't have enough hours in my day to deal with flame wars.

Back to your regularly scheduled live feeds report ...

Here's the news from inside that Big Brother House of Top Heavy With Testosterone:

• Although they went to bed rather early (for them - 1 AM their time), BB didn't wake them up until around 10 AM.
• Then they didn't want to get up.
• They woke up to an indoor lockdown with construction noise coming from the yard.
• Britney tended to her finger, cut while searching for the "coins" yesterday.
• Apparently it's bad enough of a cut for the show to call in a medic last night.
• Lane and Hayden talked about how they think if Britney gets in the final two, she'll win.
• Yet WE know Lane actually wants her in the final two with him.
• But he's not telling Hayden that!
• The boys bragged Brigade ... not to Britney, mind you.
• Britney told Lane she feels like Ragan did last week, shunned.
• He denied she's being shunned.
• She has been leaving the guys alone going off napping and things.
• This is the time she should be with as many of them as much as she can.
• Lane ended up getting perplexed with her after telling her she went off to bed early and everything. He told her he won't baby her.
• Lots of small talk, then napping time.
• BB apparently gave them some more Dollar Store kids toys to amuse them.
• As I get this posted, the feeds have been blocked with trivia for a few hours. It should be the PoV comp.
• I will post the results when I know them.

BULLETIN: IT SOUNDS LIKE HAYDEN WON THE POV
Yes, Hayden won.

Big Brother 12 - Ragan's Exit Interview

The repeated slow motion of the veto comp shows that Enzo really didn't "tackle" Ragan at all.

'Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Into Saturday Morning - Sept. 4

A thrill a minute.

Hmmm ... for the first time since I've been doing this, I have a bit of trouble with reporting any news from inside that Big Brother House of Britney and da Boys. Let me give it a try:

• One thing I don't believe I mentioned in my last report is that Britney is the one who cleaned up the mess from the coin hunt.
• The bedrooms remain a mess.
• Same as it ever was, same as it ever was.
• Enzo made a huge thing about washing his own plate after eating aimed specifically at Britney.
• But she's the one who does the most actual cleaning these days.
• They heard someone over the fence shouting that "Big Brother rules!"
• I miss the days of Miss Kitty with her megaphone, people throwing candy, etc. That's back when it was a real house, not just a studio on the CBS lot.
• They're all worried that Britney will win the veto and blow all the Brigade plans.
• I don't think Lane is as worried about that as are Hayden and Enzo.
• They actually went to bed fairly early for them -- about 1 AM their time.
• And that's just about it.
  

Big Brother 12 - Friday Live Feeds Report (including nominations) - Sept. 3

Their housekeeping is getting worse and worse.

Scared by a mouse? Or could it be something else?

At least something happened in the house today -- a "treasure hunt" and the nominations. Excitement by the minute, I tell you. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Tearing Down the House:

• After a mundane start to the day, the feeds were blocked with trivia.
• Yep, that's usually a sign that a comp is going down.
• This time they returned during the action.
• BB had made an almost CD-sized "coin" for each of the houseguests, then gave them time to hide their own coin.
• Then the others had to search. The owner of the last coin found would win $10,000.
• Although we didn't see all of it, we saw a lot of the action.
• They tore the house apart!
• Hayden was out first when Enzo found his coin.
• Next Enzo was out when Britney found his coin.
• Britney found Lane's coin, so she's the big winner. She had hidden her own coin in a box in a bag with chicken ick on it in the trash.
• Then they got to put the whole house back together before nominations.
• Hayden once again broke something and fussed a few times about how he's always breaking things in the house. Enzo also broke a big urn. The breakages happened in the heat of the coin search.
• According to BB, the search was supposed to last about a half-hour.
• It lasted more than three hours.
• They had discussed the limited possibilities for nominations since Hayden won.
• More than once Lane said Hayden should just put up Britney and himself.
• Who is Hayden to refuse?
• They'll all play in veto and the winner of veto is the sole vote this week.
• Lane and Britney are on the block. If Britney wins, Enzo will go home.
• I'm not so sure on Lane. If he sticks to his Britney F2 plan, he'll boot Enzo.
• If Hayden or Enzo win, I believe Britney will go.
• We'll see.
• As I typed this, Britney is talking about there being no big alliances in the house this season.
• Lane even led her on about "what if there was a four-person alliance?"
• I can't believe she doesn't see it!
• Ack.
  

Big Brother 12 - Live Feeds Into Friday Morning, September 3

Hayden says, "I'll never see the inside of the jury house."

The epitome of boring live feeds in a single screen cap.

Not only did they NOT return the live feeds until after last night's HoH comp was over, but they trapped the hamsters inside with nothing to do. So they napped. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of the Final Four:

• It's interesting how they cling onto any bits and pieces of the audience at the live show -- from glimpses to hearing them laugh or applaud. I don't recall others doing that so much in past years.
• Lane told the others about his talk with Julie, calling himself a dodo ... but didn't tell them about taking Britney to the final two.
• That is, if he gets the chance.
• Enzo advised Hayden to wait and let Britney talk to him, make her think she's safe.
• Lane looked worried a lot -- he might be losing his Britney.
• Enzo, a bit self-confident for someone who constantly loses comps, went as far as to suggest that Hayden put himself and Lane on the block.
• Of course, it doesn't really matter who goes on the block as the power of veto winner will hold all the power this week.
• BB returned their glasses and silverware. Lane had just finished eating a bowl of cereal when they discovered them.
• They think the next comp will be the faces morph. It should be, but you never know.
• Grasping any clue to the outside world, once they could go into the yard,they found a soda can in the with a new amusement park ride advertised.
• Hayden opened up his HOH room. A letter from his father, a new string "bracelet," some Corona beer.
• Enzo is really playing up to Hayden now.
• This isn't too great for Lane because someone needs to be friends with Britney (him) and it distances him a bit from Hayden.
• Enzo even spent the night with Hayden in the HOH room.
• No, not like THAT!
• Enzo hopes he hasn't embarrassed his wife too much by losing so many comps.
• Forget the wife, think about the entire state of New Jersey! Sheesh!
• Enzo thinks they should hang out more with Lane so that "Britney doesn't get in his head."
• Um. She's already there.
• Enzo is really working the Brigade status. After all, that's been his only big move in the game.
• Right now, I believe Hayden will want Britney out, then Enzo.
• Enzo doesn't know that.
• It's all going to hinge on POV.
  

Oh, joy! Another HOH room!
