Big Brother 16: Live Feeds Thursday night into Friday - September 12

She can smile more now

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Finally Frankie on the block:

• Frankie keeps being told that Victoria is going home and he's a pawn.
• I doubt he believes it. I think he knows his fate is sealed unless he can win veto.
• Caleb told him he put him on the block instead of Cody because Cody just went through suffering a week on the block before the rewind.
• But ... but ... Derrick's never been on the block! Why not him.
• Caleb told him that it wasn't fair to put Derrick on the block because Derrick couldn't play in either of the comps in the rewind. He had no chance to keep himself safe.
• (Besides, they all want Frankie OUT!)
• Lots of memorizing faces going on in groups, separately or, in Frankie's case, in the HoH tub going over each one.
• Derrick told Victoria she needs to keep up the hating him act.
• But she MISSES him!
• @@
• Caleb and Frankie are still bent out of shape about the jurors not only messing up the house, but getting five grand.
• They're happy that Hayden won the money, not most of the others, but still. Y'know, America must hate them to allow the jury to get luxuries when they're in the lap of luxury.
• It's only Derrick and Cody voting. As long as the nominations remain the same, they're both voting Frankie out.
• If Victoria wins the veto (BWAHAHAHAHA!) and takes herself off, Frankie goes home.
• If Frankie wins the veto and either Cody or Derrick go up, Victoria goes home.
• Frankie thinks someone convinced Caleb to nominate him.
• (cough ::: Derrick :::) 
• Actually, he suspects Cody, too.
• Caleb, being his Caleb self, isn't all that convincing that no one convinced him.
• Frankie knows.
• We know he knows.
• Hopefully anybody BUT Frankie wins the veto.
• Frankie has interrogated everyone except Victoria.
• Derrick continues to solidify his relationships with everyone in the house, including Frankie.
• A Frankie quote: "Public perception of me is extremely important to me."
• Heh. I think his family should start researching shrinks now.
• Derrick fixed Victoria's broken necklace but told the guys not to tell her he fixed it.
• That's because they hate each other, of course.
• Frankie said he was given a note that the TVGN (BBAD) audience doesn't like him to "perform" for them.
• Ha.
• Neither do the live feeders.
• Victoria thinks the jury is bitter.
• I think they are, too. But, listening to them talk the other day on the show, they definitely know who's playing a good game. Hopefully they'll vote on that.
• The upcoming veto will be the deciding factor whether we're rid of Frankie or not.
• I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Why did you put me on the block, Caleb?

Why not CODY?

I'll cover the noms photos with a towel

Chips chowing down

Big Brother 16: Live Feeds Bulletin - Nominations - September 11

Caleb actually did it -- he put Victoria and FRANKIE on the block. Of course, he told Frankie that he's the pawn, but ...!

Big Brother 16: Live Feeds Thursday into the afternoon - September 11

Who's this running into the house?

Well, Team Monotony ... er, Big Brother livened the house up a bit today. Here's what happened inside that Big Brother House of Jurors Running Amok:

• Our oh-so-lovable hamsters slept in, as usual.
• Caleb found a card from BB saying that Cody's dinosaur costume was once again extinct and that they were going to have a luxury comp.
• Then they got locked in a room with a TV monitoring the house.
• Who comes running in the door?
• Our jury hamsters!
• They rip through the house throwing food, Froot Loops and clothes all over the place, basically trashing it.
• While they watched them on the TV, they all laughed. They certainly changed their tune later.
• After the initial trashing, the feeds ended up being blocked.
• However, it seems each present hamster had to put on a t-shirt with the team member of the jury's name on it.
• That juror was playing for the hamster on their team, searching for a chip worth 10 grand -- five for the juror, five for the hamster.
• Caleb was unhappy he got Jocasta.
• Aw.
• Victoria had Hayden.
• Hayden found the chip, so they each get the money.
• Frankie and Caleb are SO ticked about that.
• VICTORIA gets money?!?!?!
• Oh noes! Life in the BB house is SO unfair!
• Then they all groused about having to clean up the mess left behind.
• Victoria had a valid complaint that someone broke her necklace and someone crossed her name off where she had written it on the inside of the bathroom door.
• (Hamsters through the seasons have marked their existence in the john.)
• How dare the jury have a chance to win money?
• How dare they mess up my house?
• And so on.
• Now we're pretty much back to boredom.
• Nominations today, the screen said after the jurors left.

Dancing and trashing

Hamsters locked up laughing

The trashing goes on, as does the laughing

I'm so mad

No, WE are Team Donny!

Jus' spittin' in a cup. Ew.

Big Brother 16: Live Feeds overnight into Thusday - September 11

Will the new HoH do it?

Good morning, folks. We all know that today is a solemn day in our lives as we remember the terrorist attacks of 9/11/01. Here in the Greater NYC Metropolitan Area, we have reminders of the day every day in our daily lives -- things that have changed due to the attacks. But, on the actual date, it really takes us back in time. I'd rather go back in time to a day when we felt safe on our own soil. We'll never forget.

But life goes on. And, the BB house hamsters go on, as well. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of You Can Do It, Caleb!:

• As you all know from my previous update, Caleb won HoH.
• Heh.
• I would have preferred Cody or Victoria, but I'll take anyone who's not named Frankie.
• Of course, there was a lot of memory wall studying as they know they'll be facing the morph comp once again. They're sure it will be changed somehow, but it's anyone's guess what the changes will be.
• In talking about the rewind, Frankie brought up that Jeff and Jordan will have to get engaged in the yard again. Derrick laughed and said as long as he doesn't gash his finger on a glass again.
• Ah, so that's how he cut his finger! I didn't ever catch where the cut came from and assumed a comp.
• They (Derrick and Frankie) haven't mentioned the Team America mission, whether it has to be redone or not.
• Derrick told Cody that they have to convince Caleb to put Frankie on the block.
• Meanwhile, the Victoria hates Derrick act continues. Victoria is having a ball with it. She knows she can't win the game, so she's putting her effort into securing a Derrick win. At one point she told the camera (us) that this was for Jana and Tenley.
• She's putting great little touches on the act all by herself, too.
• She made a point of saying goodnight to everyone but Derrick.
• They're all falling for the act.
• Caleb agreed with Derrick that Frankie needs to go (as he's the greatest threat for the big win), but disagreed on putting him initially on the block.
• Derrick pointed out that if he's (Frankie's) on the block and wins veto, he saves himself. But, if Frankie is NOT on the block and Cody/Victoria or Derrick/Victoria are ... Frankie could save Victoria and either Cody or Derrick would end up going home.
• Hmm ... pretty valid reasoning.
• Well, until you think about it. I'm sure Frankie wouldn't save Victoria.
• But Caleb might fall for it.
• Caleb agreed that he will put Frankie on the block but convince him that Victoria is the target.
• Caleb is still having delusions of grandeur.
• He just doesn't realize that outside of the BB fan base, the cast hamsters just fade into total obscurity with the general public.
• American Idol is about the only long time reality show to make stars of the winners and some of the better singers. Why has he never applied for that if he's such a great singer?
• Frankie wants to have surgery on his ears because he thinks they look like bat ears. Derrick said they're more a bit elf. 
• I think he should spend his money on a personality implant instead of his ears.
• In his HoH reveal, Caleb got the CD from the singer who appeared in the yard for the engagement party.
• Since BB opened up the yard, the hamsters aren't expecting the PoV comp until Saturday.
• I'm really hoping for some changes this week ... like Frankie LOSING comps.
• How about you?

Big Brother 16: Live Feeds Special HoH Comp Re-do - September 10

As I get this posted, the live feeds are still blocked. I'll update when they come back!

9:18pm ET -- Feeds still blocked.

CALEB IS WEARING THE HOH NECKLACE!

Caleb won the HoH comp

And Frankie didn't ... heehee

Contemplating the veto

Derrick is thrilled. He's sure that Frankie can't win the veto twice over him. Caleb wants Frankie out, but isn't sure about initially putting him on the block and letting him have the chance to save himself with the veto.
