Big Brother 16: Live Feeds into Tuesday evening - July 22

Hayden, cornered by Brittany

Oh my gosh, Thursday evening is still two days away. I'm not sure I can take this! Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Zany Zach:

• Today has been very trying.
• And so has Brittany.
• She's cornered almost everybody, promising them everything under the sun.
• Donny has just been being Donny-like.
• Everyone is pretty much either telling Brittany they're undecided or telling her what she wants to hear.
• Lies.
• All lies. 
• No matter what they're telling her, it's lies.
• Except Jocasta.
• She's not lying.
• She told Brittany that she would be voting for Donny to stay because Donny saved her.
• What Brittany doesn't know is that the vote is already planned 10-0 to send her packing.
• Donny knows it.
• Donny has been told not to worry about any rumors he might hear about votes to keep Brittany.
• All was going smooth, everyone kind of catering to what she wants to hear.
• Then came Zach.
• He advised her to have a house meeting!
• Once again, he's not cognizant of anyone other than having a ball for himself.
• Cody freaked. Even Caleb bristled. And, Frankie said maybe she should get a clue from someone who watches the show -- those who call a house meeting usually go home.
• (Except Dan.)
• (Well, maybe Dr. Will, too.)
• But everyone else goes home!
• Cody doesn't want Donny to freak out and think he's been betrayed ... because they don't plan on betraying him.
• Zach was advised to shut down that plan ASAP.
• In other news, it's date night in the house.
• Amber wanted Cody to be her date.
• He refuses. He doesn't want Caleb to rip his head off.
• He told her to ask Derrick. Of course, since Derrick is married and no competition, Caleb would leave his head intact.
• Frankie is going as hetero-persona Frank.
• In yet other news ... the anti-Caleb sentiment in the house is getting stronger.
• If he were up on the block this week, he'd be gone on Thursday.
• His days are definitely numbered unless the "competition beast and mental monster" can come up with wins to save his butt.

Big Brother 16: Live Feeds Monday evening into Tuesday - July 22

Walking, yes indeed, talking ...

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Bad Decisions:

• Cody thinks America must think he's dumb for putting Donny on the block instead of Caleb.
• Well, yeah!
• Nicole is sure that Caleb won't do well in most comps because he's so muscle-bound that he can't even lift his arms over his head easily.
• I don't think Cody ever wants to win HoH again. Similar to his butt-kicking punishment, he's been kicking himself in the butt over his decision. He can't sleep well at night and is getting emotionally invested in this.
• Amber told Cody she doesn't want to be alone with Caleb at the jury house. However they go, she doesn't want her and Caleb to be the first two.
• I'm not an Amber fan. But I can't blame her for feeling that way!
• Amber and Cody talked about how frustrating Zach can be -- sleeping all day, picking on Brittany (or others) when they're down.
• Caleb talked about his first date with Amber going to a restaurant in a horse-drawn carriage, paparazzi snapping shots ... 
• DELUSIONAL BOY!
• She told him if he eats a pickle (he hates pickles), she'll go on a date with him.
• Jocasta said she still would never go out with him.
• Jocasta is right.
• I'm getting tired of having to turn down the volume on my live feeds every time Frankie enters a room. He needs to speak in indoor voices, please. I'll let him speak in voices instead of voice, but INDOOR.
• Donny pointed out to Jocasta that there are four people in the house never on the block -- Derrick, Christine, Cody and Frankie.
• Hmm.
• Caleb talked about himself and how great he is.
• Almost everyone in the house at one time or another during the evening talked about how much Caleb talks about himself.
• He's the joke of the season this year.
• Derrick and Cody talked about how Brittany will be going Thursday, quite likely 10-0.
• But, later, when talking with Caleb, they were talking how the vote might be split and they might keep Brittany.
• Hmm.
• Zach told Victoria that Frankie is Caleb's only friend in the house and even Frankie doesn't like Caleb.
• Zach told Frankie that the Diary Room eggs him on to be "meaner" in there.
• I don't doubt that.
• I just wonder why the Diary Room must encourage several to shout!
• I think it's still pretty safe to say Brittany is going out this week. They don't want her all paranoid. They say just before the live show, they'll pass word around on the vote.
• I myself would rather see Brittany leave than Donny. 
• I would love to see Donny make HoH and see where that takes things!

Almost as popular as Caleb these days

Please save me, save me!

Victoria is always playing with her hair

He's such a stud. Just ask him!

Big Brother 16: Live Feeds Monday, PoV meeting - July 21

On the block

Sigh. It almost wasn't so. But then it was. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Tear-Jerkers:

• Donny got up this morning feeling it wasn't going to be a good day for him.
• He was right.
• Brittany went to Cody before the meeting, telling him she didn't want him to put Donny up against her.
• After all, Donny had sat by her side for the kicking punishment when no one else did.
• Brittany also told Cody that if Caleb wins next week, he'll probably backdoor him (Cody).
• She also told him that Frankie will drift to whoever has the HoH.
• Well, duh. Is there anyone who can't see that by now?
• Donny tried to tell Cody he needs to base his decision on what's best for his own game, not what others want him to do.
• Cody told him he wants to put Caleb up, but no one thinks he would go home over Brittany.
• He thinks that everybody wants Brittany out because they think if she wins HoH, she'll target them.
• Donny seriously tried to convince Cody that his tight-knit group isn't so tight-knit.
• Donny and Cody both said they trust each other.
• Hmm.
• Their long conversation ended with Cody telling Donny he wouldn't put him on the block.
• Sigh.
• As Cody left, he said something about putting Caleb on the block.
• WHAM! Frankie takes that and RUNS to Derrick!
• "He's putting Caleb on the block!"
• When Derrick told Cody what Frankie said, Cody said Frankie's a weasel.
• Now ... what have I been saying?
• Oh my gosh. I don't think I've ever seen such a turmoil over the renom decision.
• Cody likes Donny. He doesn't like Caleb.
• Derrick tells him to go with his heart.
• But Cody doesn't really know what his heart wants! His heart wants Caleb out and he doesn't think the votes would be there, then he'd have Caleb's wrath.
• Derrick actually told him to go ahead and put Caleb up -- they're going to come after them anyway.
• Long story short ... after the PoV meeting blocked feeds ... Donny is on the block again.
• Everyone is telling him he will stay.
• Neither Donny nor Brittany want to campaign against each other.
• Hayden and Derrick told Donny they will vote for him to stay.
• Jocasta is in a tougher spot -- Donny and Brittany are her two closest friends in the house. I'm thinking she'll vote to keep Donny as he used the veto to save her.
• But, who knows?
• Cody cried about his decision.
• He feels horrible.
• I wonder if BB has a chicken suit he can wear.
• He probably should.

Liked being a frog better

You could have chosen differently, Cody

Cody cries to Donny

Jocasta has a tough decision ahead

Big Brother 16: Live Feeds Sunday night into Monday - July 21

It's a real nail-biter

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Derrick's Decisions:

• Caleb and Amber told Cody he should put an alliance member on the block or Donny (to ensure that Brittany goes home).
• Of course, they're thinking the defunct old alliance is still in action.
• They think if Zach was on the block, he just might go home. So, not Zach, they say.
• Caleb thinks if he (Caleb) goes on the block, he's a cinch to stay.
• Hmm ... I'd like to see how that goes down!
• Donny worked some more with people to plant the seed that Cody goes on the block.
• Nicole told Zach that Brittany and Amber would like to see four guys on the block, but are also setting sights on her and Christine.
• I would like to see four guys on the block for a change.
• I'm really tired of guys ruling over this game. I'm not saying I could do better, but ... sheesh!
• Everybody is worried that if Caleb goes up and stays, he'll wreak revenge.
• That's easily solved.
• VOTE HIM OUT.
• There, problem solved!
• Alas, too many also want Brittany out. There's the dilemma.
• Zach is on the Donny Train to get Caleb out.
• Too bad they can't seem to get affirmation from everyone else.
• After numerous long discussions, it looks like it's pretty much back to Donny being the replacement nominee.
• The PoV meeting will tell.

Violence in the BB house?

The good ol' CVS epsom salts bath

If we had the votes ...

Big Brother 16: Live Feeds into Sunday evening - July 20

Frankie, Jocasta is so MEAN to me!

Today's live feeds were dominated by the incredibly cruel and possibly physically dangerous "punishment" that Brittany "won" in the veto contest. She had to kick 2400 soccer goals within 24 hours. Here's how the day went down in that Big Brother House of Kicks:

• Donny kept his promise to stay by Brittany as she worked on her goal(s).
• At one point, Brittany switched to kicking backwards with her heel as her big toe developed a huge blood blister and she thought her toenail might fall off.
• Brittany told Donny she just had surgery two years ago on both of her feet and has arthritis in them.
• Yet, she was determined to see this punishment through. At the very least, she plans to keep the ball. She's hoping BB might offer some sort of reward for finishing.
• She knows that she's the likely target to go home this week.
• Brittany told Donny that she thinks they'll replace Victoria on the block with one of their friends so that she would definitely be the one evicted.
• She doesn't know that they are leaning strongly in favor of Donny being said pawn.
• Donny told Brittany he'd do ten jumping jacks for every 20 goals she makes in a row.
• He's just a really good guy.
• During a Brittany rest break, Donny worked on Cody to put Caleb up as the replacement.
• I honestly think Cody would love to do just that, but his fear of how Derrick, Frankie and Zach would react will keep him from making the move.
• He's also very legitimately worried that if he put Caleb up and Caleb didn't get sent packing, Caleb would come after him full force.
• Donny assured him that if Caleb goes up, he goes home.
• Cody discussed it with Christine. She said she wouldn't mind Caleb going up, but if Brittany stayed she thinks she will be her (Brit's) target.
• They all cheered Brittany on as she got closer to her goal. BB game aside, they're all amazed how grueling the punishment is and Brittany's determination to finish despite pain.
• Brittany made the final goal needed at about 5:10 their time, well within the 24 hour limit.
• Victoria whined, fussed and moaned about how no one wants her in the house.
• Well, then ... don't use the veto tomorrow and let them send you home, Victoria.
• It's not like you add any entertainment value for me, anyway.

Ain't that a kick in the butt

Goooooaaaalll! Brittany did her 2400

And she jumps in the pool!

Donny stayed at Brittany's side throughout
