Big Brother 17: Live Feeds Tuesday Night into Wednesday - June 30/July 1

Her arms are all over the place!

One of the things other than Audrey chewing gum in her Jeff pre-season interview, other than her coming across as pushy, that I didn't like was the fact she talks with her hands ALL THE TIME. As I've been watching the feeds, it seems it's worse than I thought. She can't talk without using her hands and arms. I don't think anyone can actually sit near her without be whapped by a swinging arm!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Mama Told Me Not To Come:

• Austin and Audrey talked. He told her that he's sure he's the next target after her. 
• But are his attempts to work with her sincere?
• Bwahahaha!
• He thinks his underground revolution could use Audrey against the "other side." Keyword is USE.
• Jason thinks that Audrey could probably be hated by America.
• I'm not so sure about that. It would be hard for the show only viewers to actually see what we've seen on the live feeds. While she's reminiscent of Amanda Zuckerman, she gets out of bed more and isn't glued to a guy. Also, they're onto her early, so there's more drama all about it. I'd just as soon she stay!
• Audrey might have gained Austin but she might have lost Clay and Shelli.
• They, Clay more vocally, told Audrey they can't trust her due to the lies she told.
• Clay was hearing none of her defenses -- "You can't justify a lie!"
• In the middle of everything, Jace declared he will do no more campaigning to stay.
• Liz is worried that she is now a target since she was connected with Jace.
• Audrey told Austin about the eight person alliance going on.
• She told him that he would be safe going with them as he has offered to work with her.
• Austin reported all back to Jace.
• My head is spinning.
• In a private talk, Audrey told Jace that the backdoor plan for him was straight from the beginning. 
• She told him he needs to find a creative way to use Da'Vonne because she's an emotional player.
• She also told him that he needs to get people to campaign for him rather than campaign himself.
• Audrey's baaaack!
• Meanwhile, Vanessa is confused.
• Jace cried some more to Vanessa. He keeps saying his parents will be embarrassed and disappointed with him.
• Um. Okay. If he says so. Other than acting like a jerk, he certainly hasn't done anything totally reprehensible -- no hate speech, nothing that has the internets in a buzz. He's just majorly immature and likes to try to intimidate. Chances are he was that way before he came into the house. His parents already know.
• Clay is still mad at Audrey. Now he thinks BB will give Audrey answers for HoH comps.
• @@
• I'm not sure why he aligned and TRUSTED her in the first place when the rest of the house called her out.
• Sure, Jason allied with her at first. As did Da'Vonne. As did many others.
• But never really trusted her.
• Clay is indeed naive.
• Audrey told Vanessa she had targeted her because she was overly-sensitive.
• Well, that's kinda mean, right?
• Jace thinks he's the laughing stock of America.
• Geez, Jace. We don't care enough about you to make you the laughing stock. We have politicians for that purpose!
• Heh. I crack myself up.
• Ahem.
• Jace told Audrey she can't trust James.
• Well, he's right with that. 
• But can she trust anyone? I don't really think so. I believe she's burnt her bridges within two weeks of being in the house. She played too hard, too soon.
• Then Jace went after Steve. Sigh.
• He told Steve that he was the reason that he's going home and he was the rat.
• Say what?
• The only part Steve has taken in any of this was winning the veto and taking himself off the block. 
• Steve has only been a peripheral in all of this drama!
• Hmm. Maybe not laughing stock, but certainly emotionally stunted and grasping straws there, Jace.
• Oh my gosh! Jace is really lighting into Steve. Poor Steve.
• But, with stuff like this going on, there's no way Jace will ever stay. You can't go around bullying and trying to intimidate rather innocuous folks to win friends and influence people.
• He told Steve others call him "Geek Squad McGee." @@
• After berating him, Jace told Steve he has a plan for him (Jace) to stay. He said the conversation needs to remain private and he likes him. He said he was bullied at school, too. Steve told him he likes him, too. They shake hands.
• Jace told Steve he would show his commitment to him by keeping the conversation confidential.
• I'M SO CONFUSED.
• I do know that Steve wouldn't ever trust Jace. I believe he shook hands just to make him go away.
• What the heck was that all about?
• Shelli seems like she still wants to by Audrey's buddy. I'm not sure if it's sincere because her other buddy, Clay, is definitely on the outs with Audrey.
• Austin mentioned he's a Claymate and likes Clay Aikens. Somehow I didn't see that one coming.
• This is some cast they got going on in there. I'm actually glad there isn't one poor mature person. They would be ready to be committed.

Amanda-Audrey wears shades

Vanessa, rarely seen, often talked about

Forget it, I want to go home!

Can Steve hang in there?

Shelli remains a minion?

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds Tuesday Daytime - June 30

And, laying a finger aside his nose

As I was trying to wrap up this morning's live feeds report, an enhanced kerfuffle was going down. It didn't quite get to the point of a brouhaha. Here's what's been happening in that Big Brother House of Nobody Likes You:

• Jace decided to call out Audrey in front of Jason, Da'Vonne and a few assorted others.
• "You're a manipulator! You planned the backdoor!"
• "No, everyone is scared of you!"
• "No, they don't like you! No one likes you, Audrey!"
• "You need your head examined! You have no self-awareness!"
• And on and on.
• No fisticuffs, though.
• Now, WE know that Audrey's "allies" are now onto her playing everyone and being the source of information leaks.
• But Jace and Audrey don't know.
• And, it's gotten to the point in the house that just about everybody is skeptical of everyone else.
• I personally doubt they'll let Audrey rule from her roost as long as Amanda did in BB15. At least Audrey occasionally gets out and mingles.
• Jeff and James would like to get her out next week.
• I'm not sure it's going to be all that easy.
• Jace still wants to have a house meeting.
• Yeah, like that will solve everything.
• It's all but set in stone that Jace will go this week. Anything that comes up from a house meeting might be used against Audrey (or others) in the future, but can't save Jace's butt this week.
• Austin and Jeff know that Clay is telling Audrey everything she might miss otherwise.
• That probably won't bode well for Clay's game in the long run.
• Liz told Austin that they're probably better off in their own games without Jace in the house. She also said that they can't be the only two who vote for him to stay or they'll be the next targets.
• Jace told Steve that Audrey is a lunatic and he should avoid her.
• Hey, at least all this drama takes the photo off my little buddy, Steve!
• Then came the second wave of drama. This one came almost to the point of a brouhaha.
• Da'Vonne pretty much got everyone going calling out Audrey.
• Shout!
• Roar!
• You started all the rumors!
• Jason joined in ... you started all the distrust!
• And then Audrey cried.
• Well, they did gang up on her.
• She told Shelli that Vanessa was the mole, not her.
• But she didn't defend herself until after Da'Vonne left the room.
• Hey ... wasn't there something about a girls alliance this year?
• Oh.
• Never mind. Cancel that alliance.
• Shelli and Clay seem to be the only ones willing to still work with Audrey.
• Hmm.
• Jason said Audrey is Amanda.
• Too late. I said that days ago.
• Jace once again tried to intimidate/shame Clay into going to his side.
• Maybe he does indeed need his head examined.
• Lots of pointing fingers about who the "mole" in the house.
• Lots of distrust.
• As it should be ...

John's mingling more

And the claws come out

Don't save the drama for your Mama!

Bug Brother 17: Live Feeds Monday Night into Tuesday - June 29-30

Audrey and Clay whisper ... a lot

Jace needs to go home. I have had enough of Jace. He's trying every angle and he's trying my patience. Had he not been the backdoor plan before, he's pretty much only reinforcing the thought he should go. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Begging:

• Like every other season, BB went through their clothes and took some away. I know they don't like white or clothes that might "strobe" on camera. They're also picky about anything which might be construed as advertising. That's why we so often see the college shirts from their local areas -- no product or brand names.
• You say you want a revolution? Oh, yeah. Austin keeps working on his underground movement revolution plan -- to oust Audrey.
• At this point, Austin pretty much considers saving Jace a lost cause.
• Not that he's telling him that.
• Jace is still running around to everyone all but on his knees and begging.
• He definitely is going for the guilt trips.
• I don't know. If someone emphatically tries to guilt trip me, I'm more likely to not do what they want.
• His begging is coming off as really annoying and sometimes quasi-intimidating.
• Clay and Jeff told him that they had to vote with the house (against Jace) if they didn't want to be targeted next week.
• Jace insisted if he had them, he'd stay.
• On and on.
• And on.
• They're still up as I post this. 

What? Have I got leprosy?

He's the Steve's knees

This is my expression as I watch the feeds

Not Audrey's best look

She looks like Minnie Mouse or something.

But I could win HoH and save you!

But you were my friend!

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds Monday Into the Evening - June 29

Jeff originally wanted to be on BB

Yes, Jeff said that the other day -- he originally wanted to try out for BB while Jackie had wanted to be on TAR, not BB. You can see the differences in their gameplay. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Discombobulated Denizens:

• James had an epiphany ... he realized that Audrey was the one who leaked info to Jace about a song he planned for his eviction.
• Well, duh.
• He's not saying anything to her about it so she won't suspect that he's onto her.
• He told Jason and Meg. though.
• Clay told Austin that Liz told him that she's trying to distance herself from him (Austin). He said to watch her.
• Of course, it might have been Julia saying that.
• Who knows anymore?
• Clay also told Austin that Vanessa is trustworthy.
• But, is Clay trustworthy in saying all this?
• The jury is still out on that.
• Steve tried to explain Evel Dick to John and James.
• Well, that's just silly.
• Who can really explain Evel Dick? Is there a plausible explanation for Evel Dick?
• Lots and lots of small talk today -- conversations about previous seasons and previous houseguests, people falling in the pool, 9-11 (as in their lives and in the BB house), etc.
• James and Meg want to let Da'Vonne in on what they know about Audrey's talking and letting secrets out.
• An interesting bit -- while mug shots of Audrey, Jace and James hit the internet, Jason said he didn't think he'd get on the show because he was arrested for "dumb stuff."
• Hmm.
• Not a heck of a lot went on today.
• But I suffered, as you must also suffer.

Clay makes a point?

Vanessa must be cold

Dr. Demento?

Look! Becky has bunny slippers!

I think Meg is expendable

Cheap sunglasses

Johnny Mac sighted AGAIN

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds Overnight Sunday-Monday - June 28-29

Late looks at the Memory Wall

As the hamsters finally sleep, I will finally post. Here's the latest from the live feeds inside that Big Brother House of Loquacious Lumps:

• Jace, now up on the block in Steve's place, threatens that he'll expose everything if he goes out on Thursday.
• He's still talking about how embarrassed his family will be.
• Of course, family embarrassment didn't stop him from streaking or acting the fool, did it?
• Austin told Jace that he thought Clay was behind the Jace backdoor.
• Um, no. It was mostly Jason, James and Audrey.
• Jace told Lizia and Austin that Audrey is "ruining the game" and needs to go.
• He's kind of right.
• It should be "RUNNING the game," though. Not ruining.
• Jace again went around, even to James, pleading to stay this week.
• Steve said he never watched BBAD because he had the feeds.
• Same here. I tried BBAD but prefer to make my own camera switches to the room I want to watch. Plus, there's some seconds lag between the two. If I turn on BBAD, I have an echo-echo-echo.
• Steve also joked that he's sure he's being portrayed as the sex symbol of the show.
• I do like the kid. I just wish he didn't come off so Ian-like in looks with the eyeglasses and all. The hamsters think he's Ian II.
• Shelli tried to make Audrey realize that, in their meetings, she (Audrey) doesn't give others the chance to talk.
• "In all our talks, I don't think I've talked for even five minutes."
• Audrey, talking over her, said that's just not so.
• The High Rollers/HoH Group think that someone must be telling the others conversations. 
• James thinks it's Jackie, Clay or Jeff.
• Audrey and Meg doubt it's Jeff.
• Lots of "rat" and "mole" talk going on. Some think they should confront Jace and see who's giving him info.
• That was pooh-poohed by Audrey.
• Audrey herself is the biggest mole or rat, planting the seeds and watching her minions go frantic.
• Jason claims that this BB17 is like, "Big Brother on methamphetamine, like no other season before."
• He's right.
• One positive that I can say about this cast, though -- no one is coming across as close-minded or racist.
• That's a good thing.
• Psychotic, narcissistic, paranoid, etc. -- but not racist or close-minded.
• Audrey doesn't know it, but most of her minions now see through her and know that she needs to go.
• But will they act on it before she dictates her way through to the end?

Jason's skinny legs get oiled

Meanwhile, the spider sees all

Oh! Johnny Mac mingling!

Becky talks exchange rates. Yawn.

Liz. Or Julia. One or the other.
