Big Brother 24: Live Feeds Monday Daytime - Aug. 20

Seeking the bully within

At least they had the Power of Veto meeting early so that the hamsters can react even longer! Here's the day's events from inside that Big Brother House of Bitter Bully Boogies:

• Boogie started off first thing in the morning telling Joe what a smooth operator Dan is and how Shane needs to put him on the block.
• Joe told Boogie that Shane wouldn't tell him who's going up in place of Frank.
• Boogie went to the HoH room and told Shane that Dan is a coward and playing them all.
• (Well, yeah. He's playing them all. That's actually a wise way to play the game and Dan knows it. But, coward? Nah.)
• Boogie is actually indeed right about Dan's approach to the game -- friend to all, let others do the dirty work, etc.
• But he's already told Shane all of this ... no need to bat him over the head with it again and again.
• Frank tried again at Shane just before the PoV ceremony.
• The ceremony (blocked to the feeds) went down.
• Frank took himself off the block (duh!) and Shane put Jenn in his place.
• So it's Jenn and Boogie on the block.
• Oh my gosh, you'd think that Jenn is too self-important to not realize Boogie is ALWAYS the target.
• She's invisible.
• Why doesn't she know that?
• Yeah, Jenn is still in the house.
• She's all upset about being put on the block knowing that if she's there with Boogie, he'll go home!
• Britney, covering her bases, told Jenn she had no idea who Shane was going to put up.
• Jenn believes her.
• Jenn is blaming her nomination on Dan.
• Um. Okay. Boogie has got himself a full Dan Haters Not So Anonymous Movement going.
• She started shooting Dan evil looks with an evil eye and singing "you look so pretty digging your grave" to him.
• Oh my.
• One would think that the Invisible Girl is a target, eh?
• Ashley told Britney she wouldn't vote Jenn out.
• Remember, they have that girl thing going on.
• When Jenn confronted Shane, he said that she was telling information to Boogie and was the closest (other than bromance boy Frank) to him.
• So they're on indoor lockdown.
• Dan is on a couch reading the bible.
• Frank, Boogie and Jenn are talking about him as if he wasn't there.
• Tag-teaming.
• Dan kept his cool, not even looking up from the bible.
• Finally Joe called them out as bullies.
• No, they weren't beating Dan up physically, but they were doing their best to get him mentally.
• "Just chatting," Boogie said.
• Yeah, right.
• Later Dan encouraged Joe to go after them and challenge them like that again if needed.
• Jenn said that Danielle should have warned her.
• Danielle cried.
• Joe still has no clue about Ian's role or the Quack Pack.
• So he trashtalked Ian about trashtalking Shane to Boogie.
• Joe told Shane that they need to get rid of the floaters after this.
• Um ... goodbye, Joe?
• They are pretty sure it will be a double eviction week although they weren't thinking that way yesterday.
• Frank told Britney that he'd like to work with her after Thursday.
• Well, he'd probably like to work with anybody, I'm sure!
• Joe seriously thinks he's in an alliance with Dan, Britney, Shane and Danielle.
• He's a vote. Yep. In? Nah, not really.
• Frank is really pulling Ashley's ear. It's hard to tell if she believes him or not. She should notice that all of his scenarios about the end of the game don't include her.
• Meanwhile, Dan is getting folks to decide who to vote for in a second eviction if one should happen on Thursday.
• Oh my. What a stressful house. I'm glad I don't live there!

And Danielle cried

Dan ignores the tag-team bully approach

Jenn claims she'll go "kamikaze"

Ian in the Memphis hat

Big Brother 14: PoV Meeting Bulletin - Aug.20

As expected, Frank saved himself and Shane put Jenn on the block with Boogie.

Target Boogie.

A full report on the day will be posted later tonight.

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Monday Wee Hours - Aug. 18-20

Gals in a hammock

At least this season, I don't have to watch Adam standing around all the time. True, I have to listen to Danielle and Joe (both of whom are annoying), but enduring Adam was worse last year. So ... what's been happening inside that Big Brother House of As the Hamster Turns? Read on ...

• Ashley and Frank really think that Dan needs to go next.
• After she talked to Shane, Ashley is confident that the replacement nominee will be Joe, Ian or Dan.
• Buzzzz ... wrong!
• Joe thinks he has it wrapped up with his latest "news" he's heard within the house -- Ian betrayed his own team!
• Yep, it was IAN who mentioned cheating immediately after veto to Dan, etc. thus throwing Boogie and Frank under the bus.
• Well, that's quite the revelation, eh?
• Of course, it doesn't really matter now so much that Ian isn't "with" Boogie and Frank.
• And, if Joe wants to use it as Ian can't be trusted, telling the Quack Pack isn't going to mean anything.
• The Quack Pack minus double agent Ian, think that Ashley has a thing for Frank and can't be trusted.
• They think Jenn is more honest, but they still think that she would be the better one to put on the block with Boogie.
• Jenn is more honest because she "said mean things about Dan."
• The Quack Pack is trying to decide what Shane should say when he nominates her in Frank's place.
• Ian earlier pointed out that all of that team is in color on the Memory Wall.
• Ian hurt his ankle playing badminton.
• Poor kid.
• Boogie is more resigned to the fact he'll be going home.
• Poor Boogie.
• Not.
• Ian thinks they'll wait until next week for the double eviction so that one person isn't sent to the jury alone.
• We know he's wrong.
• With the numbers this week, Boogie should go home. Whoever is the second boot on Thursday should be the first member of the jury.
• If I were in that house, I'd relish a week alone.
• Wouldn't you?
• Sheesh, they just mention "Dairy Queen" and we get fishes.
• That's one of the code words for Diary Room.
• Well, as I close ... although they definitely think Ashley is more sketchy and shady, Jenn should be the replacement nominee. 

Being Frank to all

Hang down your head, Boogie Malin, hang down your head and cry

Britney is safe, but what about the second boot?

Dan is steady at his game

Big Brother 14: Live Feeds Into Sunday Evening - Aug. 19

Joe pontificating with Britney

"Actions speak louder than words." - Mike "Boogie" Malin

Of course, all there have been all day are words, words and more words. In the end, all that will matter is the decision Shane makes when he replaces Frank tomorrow in the PoV meeting. Actually, that probably won't even matter. I can't see Boogie NOT going home this week. How about you? Think he has any chance to stay?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Hectic Hamsters:

• Joe is saying that Boogie and Frank cheated in the PoV comp.
• Boogie and Frank now hate Joe.
• Supposedly, even if they were cheating, the result would have been the same -- a Frank win.
• We don't know as they blocked the feeds for almost seven hours for the PoV comp and its aftermath.
• Frank and Boogie know that Ian thinks a lot of Dan.
• Frank thinks Dan will use Ian and then dump him.
• As if he and Boogie would never do that!
• Apparently Joe also somehow almost got Ian disqualified in the PoV.
• I just don't know.
• Too much trivia and fishes.
• Boogie is tired of everyone in the house.
• I'm tired of him.
• We'll probably both be granted our wishes this week.
• Boogie is promising people he'll have their backs if they keep him in the house.
• Here's a novel idea, Boogie. Their backs won't need that much cover if you're gone!
• Britney and Shane think that Danielle is overly emotional.
• Y'think? Really?
• Britney thinks it's going to be very hard to get Frank out of the house.
• Y'think? I mean, he's only survived how many times so far? The guy hasn't even cast a vote yet as he goes from nominated to HoH in a cycle.
• Ian got all excited because Frank and Boogie were going to "go off" on Joe in the backyard.
• He even made popcorn.
• Sigh. It was a bust.
• Of course, Joe (who I feel has a bit of Willie Hantz in him) is unpredictable.
• I think 90% of that is just flustering foolishness, though.
• Joe thinks he's in with the HoH crew.
• Others think Joe butters up whoever is in power and they will cast him aside.
• Well, yeah. Who seriously wants Joe for more than a vote?
• The guy's nutty!
• The Quack Pack figured out it had to be Ashley telling Boogie and Frank that Joe went to the Diary Room to complain about the alleged PoV cheating.
• Joe told Frank he hasn't been talking about him or saying anything bad for at least two days.
• BWAHAHAHAHA!
• Darn, if you're going to lie, at least make it believable.
• The Quack Pack plus Frank are now more sure than ever that Ashley is "working with" Frank and Boogie.
• Frank and Boogie are still trying in vain (most likely) to have Shane put up Dan as the replacement nominee.
• I don't think that's gonna happen.
• Boogie had a poor pitiful me talk with Britney.
• Britney later talked about poor pitiful Boogie recently selling his Bentley.
• Poor Boogie.
• Boogie is upset that Joe has gone to Dan when he (Boogie) is the one with restaurant and TV connections who could get him a chef show.
• Yeah, like he would do that.
• There are moments that it seems like it's really sinking in to Boogie that he will be leaving this week and it saddens him.
• Aw, poor Boogie.
• Could those have been real tears he shed while talking with Britney?
• He told Frank they were.
• Ian confirmed with Dan that he'll be voting Boogie out this week.
• Dan reminded Ian that he took all the Frank/Boogie heat when he could have just told them about him (Ian) and his role.
• Ian is grateful.
• Me? I'd remind Dan that HE is one of the crew who recruited ME to spy for them and put the blame right back on them!
• But Ian is more gentle than am I.
• Frank and Boogie think Ian might be wishy-washy.
• Heh.
• Jenn tried to talk the get Dan out bit to Shane, saying he was a slick player and throwing comps.
• I'd say he already knows, but Shane isn't the brightest bulb in the pack.
• But I also doubt he'll cross the line and put Dan up.
• He's already in a bunch of hurt for his initial power move at the request of others.
• Ashley and Jenn have been drinking the Boogie Kool-Aid.
• They're expendable, so it doesn't really matter.
• It's up in the air who Shane will put up, but it's likely to be either Ashley or Jenn.
• The PoV meeting isn't until tomorrow.
• The tension goes on ... 

Danielle talks with her mouth full

Excitable boy

Shane's really styling, right?

Boogie's in overdrive

Big Brother 14: HoH Results and Nominations Show Blog Party - Aug. 19

It seems like so long ago, but the TV viewing audience will get treated to the endurance comp result, HoH winner and nominations tonight. Well, at least those items should be on the agenda!

The show will be starting on time tonight here in the NYC viewing area. Yay! I say that because the season finale of Falling Skies is on at 9pm. I don't want to delay that.

As the show airs here, I'll be updating this entry with major happenings, so please refresh to see the latest news. However, the real fun is in the comments area. Come join us! We don't bite ... hard (as Dr. Will would say).

In the HoH comp, lots of falls. Ouch. Britney won Safety. Boogie got the ten grand. Shane wins HoH.
Ohhh ... the big HoH room reveal. As Boogie says, lots of pictures of his dog, none of his father. His letter was from his sister.

Now we see Ian telling Britney that Boogie was pressuring him to put up Britney and/or Shane if he had won HoH. Britney lets Shane, etc. know. The Quack Pack decides that Frank and Boogie should go on the block together.

Uh-oh, Britney is going to Nair Ian's armpits! The agony! His date with Ashley was a bomb, not the bomb.

They found balls leading to the arcade room where there is now a question mark on a cube in with the balls in the machine.

Nominations today.

Key order: Britney can't be nominated. Danielle, Dan, Jenn, Ashley, Joe, Ian. Boogie and Frank are on the block. Let the fireworks begin!
