Big Brother 15: Live Feeds Overnight Into Thursday 7/11

Helen leads study class

It's been an active night for the hamsters in the habitrail. Well, for most of them anyway. Here's the overnight happenings from inside that Big Brother House of Frazzled Frenzy:
  • Judd tried to talk Jessie into voting out Nick, telling her there's a guy alliance and they need to get them out before jury.
  • Spencer told Howard that Helen isn't used to people lying to her. Howard agreed that she's naive.
  • I have to agree with both of them. If Helen was a bit more leery of liars, she's smart and I think she could be a physical powerhouse in comps. Her daily workout almost gives me a heart attack to watch!
  • Alas, now that Howard has been flirting with Candice, both Helen and Candice trust him.
  • And he's loyal to Spencer (of all people!), MC or not. Those two are like a mini-alliance within MC.
  • McCrae is thinking of jumping ship and moving to an Amanda, Judd, Elissa, Andy, Candice and Helen alliance.
  • With such, they could run the house!
  • The real shame is that two of the people on that alliance are on the block.
  • They seriously think they can get Jessie to vote with them.
  • So -- to vote out Elissa: Jeremy, Kaitlin, Spencer, GinaMarie and Howard. To vote out Nick -- McCrae, Amanda, Judd, Andy, Candice and possibly Jessie.
  • The gap is closing.
  • Howard told Nick that the last minute, he'll tell Andy that McCrae and Amanda flipped so that Andy and Judd will vote Elissa out "with the house."
  • Howard's sure that it's going to be a landslide to keep Nick.
  • Howard is wrong. 
  • If Elissa goes, it's going to be very close.
  • Both Aaryn and Kaitlin talked about previously wanting to be homemakers and now they want some kind of careers.
  • Jeremy told them he'd love to be a stay at home husband.
  • Why doesn't that surprise me?
  • Then all heck broke loose as an air raid kind of alarm went off!
  • A shot rang out!
  • The maid screamed!
  • (Sorry, I got caught up in the drama of it all.)
  • The BB voice came over the loudspeaker telling them the lockdown was over.
  • Now, that wasn't expected until the live show later tonight.
  • Whassup?
  • We got trivia on the feeds as we would intermittently throughout the night.
  • BB sent them back in the house for another lockdown.
  • It turns out there's some sort of airport luggage carousel thing in the yard.
  • They're all studying the items passing through.
  • Sometimes we have audio with trivia for it, sometimes we just have trivia and music, sometimes we have audio and visual -- but we can't see what the items passing through are.
  • This kept up until past 8am my time here here on the East Coast!
  • Hence, this late report. I kept thinking something more might happen.
  • After a handful of times overnight, Jeremy apparently gave up and headed in while the rest of the house kept studying the items.
  • They kept rehashing the items in little study groups.
  • Except Jeremy.
  • He either thinks that he knows it all or, more likely, is crushed because the comp will be memory and not something physical that he can win. Apparently if he has to work his mind, it just might go BOOM.
  • Howard told Judd and Jessie that he has a photographic memory.
  • We'll see about that!
  • Jeremy does actually remember a lot of what he saw ... before he called it a night. Nick isn't good at it at all. Nor is Aaryn (but she can't compete anyway as outgoing HoH).
  • Spencer tried to get information about Elissa from Judd.
  • Judd said, "Mumble, mumble."
  • Nick is worried about the vote.
  • He should be.
  • Candice told Amanda that Howard is voting out Nick, for sure.
  • I wouldn't be so sure about that, Candice. You've been taken in by a hunky SEEMINGLY honest dude.
  • While Spencer agreed with Andy that Elissa should stay, I don't believe him.
  • I call this vote still up in the air.
  • We won't know until the fat lady sings.
  • And I don't know if I can sing until it actually goes down.
  • So there!

Big Brother 15: Live Feeds Wednesday July 10 Into the Evening

My, Amanda has large feet!

Of course, that's in relation to McCrae's feet. My own feet are probably the same size as hers. Sigh. Here are the happenings from today inside that Big Brother House of _______ ________ (fill in the blanks; I'm pulling a blank):
  • Argh! I can't really get a handle on this group. Usually it's clear-cut who will be evicted. This time not so much.
  • I'm thinking it will indeed be Elissa.
  • One moment people are saying they're going to vote for Nick, the next they're saying they will vote for Elissa.
  • The real key is, for example, with Howard. He's been having all these really sweet heart-to-heart talks with Helen, Elissa, Candice ... they're lies!
  • He goes right back and reports to Spencer!
  • He certainly doesn't tell the girls of his talks with Spencer.
  • So, that's the key right there.
  • Jessie is wishy-washy and could go either way.
  • I think Judd does have a soft spot for Elissa and just might vote to keep her.
  • McCrae will probably vote with the MC, Amanda (not privy to the MC) might not. At one point, Amanda told McCrae he needs to vote Helen!
  • Amanda tried to talk Jeremy into a Helen vote, as well.
  • But then she tried to talk Howard into voting out Nick.
  • Of course, Spencer and Howard have been on a Get Rid of Amanda kick the last few days. Her days in the house may be numbered right along with all the other women in the house.
  • Hey, at least we don't have that pesky problem of unanimous votes so far this season!
  • McCrae told Spencer that Andy and Judd are onto the MC.
  • Not IN it, mind you. Onto it.
  • Amanda told Nick she's voting for him to stay.
  • He played her like a fiddle.
  • Gah. There's so much possible waffling and lying going on that it's making my head hurt.
  • MAKE THEM STOP!
  • Right now.
  • I want them to each take a turn privately talking to the live feeds so my head can stop hurting.
  • Snap to it, hamsters!

Big Brother 15: July 10 PoV, MVP Show Blog Party


I hope you didn't go looking for the show last night! Remember, tomorrow's live eviction show is scheduled to begin at 9pm ET/PT. Well, PT isn't quite as live, I guess.

As the show airs here tonight, I'll update this post with the major happenings. Refresh the page to get the latest. However, as always, the real party is in the comments area ... come join the fun! (But I do ask that things be kept on a PG-ish type level, thank you very much!)

Yup, Elissa got MVP again! It won't save her from the block, but she can put someone else up.

MVP nomination ... Jeremy!

Veto players: Elissa, Helen, Jeremy, Aaryn, Amanda, Nick, The host is GinaMarie.

Elissa told Nick she'd put him up in Jeremy's place if he doesn't throw the comp.

Time for the veto comp. Britney has a special message ... she's having a baby! They have to help her get her nursery together. They're wearing onesies. They have to each put together a giant mobile.

Jeremy wins. Sigh.

Time for the veto meeting. Jeremy takes himself off. MVP choice to replace him: Nick.

Big Brother 15: Live Feeds Tuesday Into the Night - 7/09-7/10

Howard-a-Day, bonus (?) McCrae

Yesterday, these hamsters bored me. That's not a good thing. It's the same repeated scheming over and over again. But, loyal feeds reporter I am, here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Goofus and Gallant:
  • Judd told Andy and Spencer that he likes Nick better than he likes Elissa. But he thinks Nick is too shady to keep around when they have a chance to get him out.
  • Actually, from what I've seen of Judd and Elissa together, he honestly seems to like her.
  • Not in a lecherous sort of way, mind you.
  • I just wish he'd move his lips when he talks. It would make the "mumble, mumble" better if I could add in lip-reading.
  • Andy said that they'd be dumb not to keep Elissa.
  • Of course, neither Andy nor Judd are a part of the Moving Company, nor do they have suspicions about it.
  • It's Candice who's pretty much figured that out.
  • Jeremy wondered if Helen would be upset if they called her H-bomb, thinking of Hiroshima.
  • Um. Um. Wrong national origin in the first place, dude! I'm sure some exist by immigration, but I've never met a Japanese Korean.
  • But, even more ... Helen is American. To me, one of the great things about America is that our ancestries span the globe. 
  • Howard told Andy that Amanda's a nutcase and he doesn't trust her.
  • That's part of the Spencer/Howard campaign against Amanda.
  • I do think McCrae is letting Amanda bring whatever personal game he has down. That's basically Howard and Spencer's problem with Amanda.
  • That said, as I mentioned before, Amanda has highs and lows for me in the game.
  • Yesterday Amanda actually approached Aaryn warning her to cool it with the racist talk. While she fluffed it off a bit saying she knows Aaryn is just joking, she made her point. 
  • Naturally, Aaryn thinks it's all much ado about nothing.  She ended up thinking that Amanda told her that there is a minorities alliance in the house.
  • @@
  • Kaitlin is now (too late!) worrying about her mother watching BB. "I'm with Jeremy and he has tattoos. She hates tattoos."
  • I don't know. I think my own mother would have been more upset that I was jumping into bed with ANYONE on national television and the Internet after knowing the man two weeks.
  • I'd be upset with myself.
  • Wait. I wouldn't do it. Problem solved!
  • The HoH camera came out. Aaryn posed a lot.
  • Andy said that the MTV reality shows just pick people who do drugs and screw each other.
  • Well, look at this BB cast, Andy!
  • A good long discussion with Jeremy, Spencer and Nick went on and on about smoking pot and drinking with a bit of coke thrown in!
  • Although I had my own personal wild days in my yute (ala Joe Pesci) and now, decades later, I feel okay mentioning them a bit, when I was young and doing stupid stuff ... I never broadcasted it! Sheesh! This declaration here is about as much broadcasting as you'll ever see me doing.
  • It's called common sense.
  • The statute of limitations is well over for me! :-)
  • As for Andy's other part: BB is famous for folks hopping into bed with each other. Not my favorite part of the action, but it's there every season.
  • Interesting -- When Amanda told Nick he gets called into the Diary Room more than anyone else, he told her he gets called because he's the "narrator" for the season. The BB voice told him to stop talking about DR sessions.
  • I think he's right. Let's watch the show tonight and see how much Nick narrates.
  • McCrae told his MC boys he has no problem with Amanda going.
  • The MC think their votes are solid to keep Nick.
  • Amanda, Andy and even Aaryn think there's something going on between Spencer and Jeremy.
  • No, not a bromance.
  • Aaryn went to Howard complaining about Candice being the root of Amanda's racist discussion with her.
  • "I'm not a racist."
  • If the shoe fits, wear it, girl.
  • I said that, not Howard.
  • Howard, more diplomatic than I am, told her they were good and he knows she's not a racist.
  • We all do know that Howard isn't against lying in the house.
  • Helen thinks that Spencer needs to be backdoored. 
  • McCrae lied to Amanda when she questioned him about there being a boys alliance in the house.
  • Somehow, the Have Nots are being allowed to sleep in beds.
  • They just have to decide which beds.
  • Candice went to bed early and went to the Have Not room.
  • Elissa worked on Jessie for the vote. Jessie told her that she's scared.
  • As it stands, Elissa does have a solid group wanting her to stay, but then comes in the Moving Company. While, technically they're only four votes (Nick can't vote as he's nominated), Jeremy has been going around intimidating people.
  • Unfortunately, though I'd rather she stay and I actually have very little against Nick other than the company he keeps ... I think it will probably be Elissa going.
  • I'd rather it be Jeremy, Kaitlin, Aaryn or Jessie on the block. 

May the good times roll

Big Brother 15: Live Feeds Monday Night - 7/08-7/09

The bearded lady?

So, it's the wee hours of the night. Of course some of the hamsters are still running in their wheels. Usually that will get them nowhere quickly. What's been happening in that Big Brother of Going to Hell in a Handbasket? Read on ...
  • Jeremy told Kaitlin and Aaryn that, once Elissa's gone, they should be winning MVP ... or Howard might.
  • Now, I think Howard might have a chance. Aaryn or Kaitlin? BWahahaha!
  • Jeremy also told Aaryn he'll be winning all the comps and MVP because "America loves a showmance powerhouse."
  • Possibly, but not when it's Jeremy, I don't think!
  • Nick pinky-sweared with GinaMarie again, telling her he's not playing her.
  • Ha! He's playing everyone! I honestly don't think Nick is loyal to anyone unless they can be used for his gain. If he were a bit better at it, he could be a real player in the house.
  • But his lies have caught up with him a bit.
  • Not that he'll go home this week, mind you.
  • Candice and Helen are working on Jessie to bring her around to their side.
  • It might not work -- they're not male.
  • But Jessie so desperately needs friends that it's possible she'll make the jump.
  • Aaryn is still bothered with the thought that her alliance, Jeremy and Kaitlin, can't be trusted.
  • Andy told Amanda that Nick is targeting Candice.
  • Amanda told McCrae she'll go along with his decision in the vote.
  • Gah. I thought she was an independent thinker!
  • Andy is worried about Spencer and Howard.
  • He probably should be. Spencer and Howard are always scheming.
  • Amanda confirmed with Aaryn that she will vote Elissa out because she's in an alliance with McCrae and that's what he wants.
  • Kaitlin told Elissa that she's not really dating Jeremy because he's too immature.
  • Really, now. Why is she having sex with him in front of the world?
  • Howard thinks Amanda is onto an alliance of the guys.
  • He apparently doesn't know that Candice and Elissa suspected it long ago.
  • The guys are on board for an Elissa ouster as of now. 
  • Spencer continued his anti-Amanda talking. You can bet he'd go for her eviction if he ever were to win anything.
  • Nick and Spencer talked about how faithful they are to the Moving Company, yet McCrae lets Amanda influence him.
  • Candice is upset because when she asked Aaryn her middle name, she said, "Shaniqua." 
  • Howard tried to soothe her ruffled feathers.
  • Meanwhile, Amanda was saying she gets upset when someone (I'd say JEREMY) use the expression "Jew'd" to imply cheated.
  • Howard talked about Aaryn's previous conversation about the fish being segregated by black and white.
  • Candice, Amanda and Howard are right. I say it's called hate speech for a reason. But, in this case within the house, a lot of it is hurt speech. It hurts the others around the person saying it. It hurts deeper than Aaryn or Jeremy will ever know. In the long run, it will hurt them themselves.
  • Nick told Aaryn he can't really get a handle on Spencer.
  • Nick lies.
  • Aaryn told him that Jeremy has a deal with Spencer.
  • Well, duh. So does Nick!
  • Alas, it still looks like Elissa will go.
