Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Monday Daytime/PoV Meeting - Aug. 13

Frank sometimes cooks!

What is it? Day 38 maybe? I've lost track. Sometimes I need the show to remind me of these pesky details. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Nefarious Ne'er-do-wells:
  • Frank told Boogie about Wil's backdoor Dan proposal.
  • As I thought he would, Boogie nixed it. He thinks it's too soon to make that move.
  • I know that Boogie has ulterior motives regarding all of this. He's talked to Dan that if either of them is up against a newbie, especially one who has won comps (IE: Frank), neither would stand a chance to win as they've both won a season before.
  • While Boogie doesn't trust Dan, he'd rather go against Dan in the final two over pretty much anyone but a floater. He thinks his chances are better.
  • But will he say that to Frank?
  • Nuh-uh! No way! If Boogie can't win, he wants Frank to win. His bromance with Frank might even allow for him to be in a final two with him.
  • Boogie is worried because Frank told Ian of the backdoor plan Wil proposed.
  • He's scared Ian will tell Britney.
  • Heh. Of course. Britney and Ian are a lot tighter than Ian and New Wave Chilltown.
  • Frank was really wanting to backdoor Dan.
  • Boogie was really not wanting him to do so.
  • Guess who won that battle?
  • Boogie, of course.
  • Frank doubts Ashey's pain. She claims it's 9 out of 10 on the pain scale, yet seems to get around fine most of the time.
  • I don't doubt that she has pain. But I do think that sometimes when it's feeling a bit better, she plays it up for attention, sympathy, drugs ... whatever.
  • I've had major surgeries. 9 out of 10 on the pain scale is heavy duty, go to the hospital type pain.
  • The ant problem continues in the kitchen ... every year, same thing.
  • Well, a shocker. The PoV ceremony (blocked feeds) resulted in the nominations remaining the same -- Wil and Joe.
  • Told you Boogie would win that battle.
  • Britney told Ian they need to let Dan know how close he came to being backdoored.
  • Dan claims he knows what he's doing and won the game once.
  • Frank is still telling Joe that he'll be safe this week.
  • Right now, that's the truth.
  • However, it's still a few days. Sometimes things change.
  • Meanwhile Dan asked Ian exactly what was said to him about the backdoor plan. While he rebuffed Britney, he thanked Ian.
  • BB took their ball and net for the pool. 
  • Probably because they abused it.
  • So they created Salsa Ball -- two small plastic bins, lemons and apples. The goal is to toss the apple/lemons into the bin while the opposing player blocks it.
  • Yawn.
  • Heh. Jenn asked Joe where he gets sea salt. He told her to Google "exotic salts" online to find a retailer. Britney said, "You can get sea salt at Marshalls."
  • I get my sea salt from Marshalls, too!

Grr. Joe takes communal food with nasty fingers

Wil he stay or go?

Although it's been mainly quiet in the house (what with Frank holding the PoV and the thought that the nominations will remain the same), there have been a few developments. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Screamining Mimis:
  • Shane told Boogie that Ashley will vote for Wil to stay.
  • Boogie told Danielle that she looked very nice and, though she didn't get a talk with Julie on Thursday, she looked nice then and had a lot of close-ups.
  • What's he up to?
  • Ashley, Jenn and Wil have been solidifying their alliance.
  • Maybe they should call it Floaters Get a Boat?
  • They're still thinking a double eviction will be going down this week.
  • I personally don't think so or it would be being hyped on commercials.
  • Shane is still worried that Frank will backdoor him.
  • Because he's so all important and all, y'see.
  • Britney and Ian are really bonding together.
  • No, not like THAT! Minds out of the gutter, please!
  • They decided if they could do it, they would throw HoH to Dan.
  • Let him get his hands dirty!
  • Ashley and Wil talked to Frank. They want him to make a big move, backdoor Dan, then they would work with him at getting rid of the other three -- Danielle, Shane and Britney.
  • Now, who would be a better and stronger team? Hmm ... methinks DDSB working with Frank and Boogie until they can't work together anymore.
  • Dan is a bit worried about what Ian would do if it came down to Frank/Boogie against them.
  • Britney isn't as worried.
  • Britney told her crew that Ashley and Wil had been in the HoH with Frank for a LONG time.
  • After Ashley and Wil left HoH, Ian went up for damage control and guessed that they wanted to work with them.
  • Ian told Frank he wouldn't trust Wil and was surprised by Ashley.
  • Ian reiterated that Wil or Joe need to go this week.
  • Frank told Ian that if they got rid of Dan, they (Boogie, Frank, Shane, Britney and Ian) could still work together. The only one who would be really upset would be Danielle.
  • Ian tried telling Frank that Dan isn't a big threat. "Maybe not to you, but to me he is," replied Frank.
  • He does have a point there.
  • Meanwhile ... Jenn, Ashley and Wil are jumping all around the storage room with new hope. They think Frank will go for the backdoor and their BB lives will be peachy-keen once again.
  • Frank ended up telling Ian that he's leaning towards not using the PoV this week, sending either Joe or Wil home.
  • Ian reported his Frank talk to Britney. 
  • She was surprised that Frank doesn't trust Dan.
  • Oh, come on now! Britney, wake up!
  • Right now, I think the nominations will remain the same. I know Boogie wants a safe move this week, bigger moves later on.
  • What Boogie wants, Boogie will probably get.
  • The PoV Meeting will be later today.

Big Brother 14: Nominations Show Blog Party - Aug. 12

BB12 Blogo 3

Although I'm starting up the party on time, the show is delayed here in the NYC area due to golf. As I have no desire to watch golf, I don't really know when it ended. I'm a bit ticked as now I'll have to record Falling Skies which I had wanted to watch live. Grr.

Anyway ... as the show airs here, I'll update this entry with major happenings. The real action will be in the comments area and everyone is welcome to pitch in with your thoughts. I do ask that people try to be civil, though. Thank you!

8:12 PM ET - Good, 60 Minutes is ending.

Have Not comp -- two teams, lemons and limes. It's one of those comps like milking in the cow outfits we've seen before. They have to soak up the juice and squeeze it out (via the farmer). The limes win! Britney, Shane, Joe, Danielle are the Have Nots. They got candy canes and cod in addition to slop.

Nominations time -- key order is: Britney, Danielle, Shane, Ashley, Jenn, Ian, Dan, Boogie. Joe and Wil are on the block. Joe voted to evict him while Wil fibbed to him last week. 

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Sunday Daytime - Aug. 12

Strategy talk in storage

I realize I've been quiet. But I believe that we're in for a long stretch of doldrums in the BB14 house. With Frank being both HoH and PoV holder, this whole week should be predictable. Wil and Joe are on the block. One will go home. Wil is the target, don't think that will change. Joe will probably go next week unless he wins HoH. Oh, well.

Here's the latest non-news from inside that Big Brother House of Bored Boys and Girls:
  • Britney still doesn't trust Boogie. (Say it ain't so!)
  • She pointed out that if Frank decides to blindside Shane, all they can come up with are four votes. Frank would be the tiebreaker.
  • Shane is indeed worried about it because he almost blindsided Frank until the powers that be decided to throw his HoH week away.
  • While talking to Frank and Boogie, Ian said that either could go ... or best scenario, a double eviction and both could go.
  • Joe is in his suck up mode.
  • Like regular Joe isn't annoying enough.
  • The fish breaks (for when they cut the feeds) have been rampant. Sheesh, BB ... we already know what happened in season 8. You don't need to block the feeds when Ian talks about it!
  • Jenn told Wil she didn't think the nominations were going to change, but if they did it would be Shane up.
  • She has no "insider" information from Boogie or Frank.
  • Boogie and Frank talked about possibly keeping Wil so he would go after Shane, Britney, Danielle or Dan.
  • I'd say he'd probably go after Frank and Boogie if he could.
  • They played charades, a thrill a minute.
  • Today hasn't been much other than messing with the coffeemaker, lounging in the pool.
  • Yawn.
