Big Brother 17: Live Feeds Friday Daytime, Nominations - July 17

James is in the bag

Here's today's happenings from inside that Big Brother House of Not Chelli All Week AGAIN:

Audrey wants Jason out.
Audrey and James get along well. She is giving him advice.
Um.
I'm not sure how great any BB advice from her is.
She suggested he could hide in a trash bag and eavesdrop.
He fits, but hasn't put it in practice.
The nomination thoughts, arguments for and against, suggestions and such kept up practically until time for Nominations!
Oy. What an indecisive bunch of HoH crowd -- Chelli, Liztin and somehow, Vanessa.
Clay, "How about putting Johnny Mac up and asking him to throw it again?"
How many times can they do that to the guy?!?!?!
They basically want either Jason (1) out or James (2).
A Backdoor Becky plan was made and discarded.
Whatever happens, Meg would be a replacement nominee if someone used the PoV.
I'm glad they figured that out before they even decided who would be on the block!
Sigh. Johnny Mac agrees to be up as a pawn and throw it again. If nothing else, they guy will hold the record for pawning and throwing and (hopefully) saving himself by winning the PoV!
In the end, Shelli nominated John and Jason while Liz nominated Jackie and James.
All J names, you notice. And, of course, two J names are gone already -- Jace and Jeff.
I call discrimination!
That said, out of the bunch, I'd have no objections if JACKIE went. Out of the four, she'd be my choice for the boot. I don't like having a non-BB fan playing in the house using my name.
So there.
Shelli told John he doesn't have to throw it -- he can compete.
Audrey continues to trashtalk about Jason (her personal target) despite the fact that they had supposedly mended fences.
She's also on a trashtalk Steve kick.
She needs to stop that.
John told Shelli that both Steve and Audrey separately approached him for final two deals.
Audrey seems to be trying to make others look bad because she's probably once again paranoid that she's a target.
We've seen that before.
Audrey cried to Shelli because she thinks Jason and John will win and Liz will put her up.
Lizia is Julia until Monday.
As I post this, they're doing the Battle of the Block and the live feeds are blocked.
When I know, you'll know.

Why? Is the sun too bright inside?

Pawn again? Throw again?

Not Shelli's best look

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds Overnight into Friday - July 17

Just a wee bit possessive

Shelli and Liz weren't really people I wanted to win the dual HOHship. It means more of Chelli hanging all over each other and now, Liztin. Here's the latest late night happenings from inside that Big Brother House of BOB Needs to be Evicted:

The stress must be getting to Jason. I see developing acne on his cheeks.
He should be stressed. It's very likely he'll be on the block once again.
The four votes to keep Jeff has 'em all in a tizzy. They expected two votes -- John and Jackie.
But who are the other two?!?!?!
"Someone lied to me!," screamed Vanessa.
Audrey is a definite suspect.
Steve is a suspect.
Becky is a suspect.
Liz is NOT a suspect.
I have to laugh how they all assume there's an America's Player.
They're so worried about that that they're building their whole game around it and it doesn't exist!
Sure, down the line I wouldn't put it past Allison Grodner to replay that old hand. But, as of now, there is no America's Players you silly hamsters!
Steve is throwing his game into play -- between his hinky vote stirring things up and his innocent lost act with Shelli, he's workin' it.
Of course, Liz and Austin might be his stumbling block.
They're thinking that people who haven't been Have Nots before should do it this week.
Vanessa is pretty sure Steve was one of the hinky votes. But Steve is working his way into Shelli's good graces. So that might not matter.
They whined about needing more food ... and, but of course, alcohol.
Oh, wait! Now Vanessa is sure it wasn't Steve with the vote! It was Becky! (Of course, that still accounts for three votes, not four. D'oh.)
But Audrey is sure it was Steve!
Now, this is the first week that Audrey has not been the hinky vote. Every week, they're sure she's doing it.
And on the Big Vote Debate went ...
No way will Liz tell. No way will Steve tell. It shall remain one of the great mysteries of all time.
Meg's name has been thrown in with the suspects, as well.
Heh. Good going Steve and Liz (although they most certainly did not conspire).
Vanessa, who admits to being a gambler to them, said Becky has to be the hinky vote. She also says that Johnny Mac has no strategy.
Wrong on both counts.
Even Clay has picked up that John knows when to talk and when to remain quiet. Nothing ever gets back to anyone about stuff Johnny Mac has said.
But I still neither like nor respect Clay myself.
In the HoH room reveal, Shelli got a letter from her dog.
I have no words.
But, apparently her dog has words.
At this point, it's very unsure who will be going on the block.
It is clear that Audrey is NOT a target once again.
It's looking rather dismal for Jason.
Meg, Jackie and Becky are on the peripheral of the group, too.
I guess we'll see.

HoH Room "excitement"

Safe for another week?

"I have no real target this week."

Steve, endearing himself to Shelli

This isn't fun

Unpacking and hoping to stay

Hmm, what to do, what to do

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll update this entry with the major happenings. Refresh the page to get the latest. As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!

Let's get this party started!

Julie wonders if Jeff can talk himself to safety. Heh. Jeff says he won't go down without a fight and commences his battle to stay in. Jason is ticked that Audrey isn't on the block. James thinks Jeff is the target, not him. (He doesn't tell Jeff that.) Clay and Jason think James is more trustworthy; Meg is in a quandary. Jeff cries to Shelli. Onto Jackie now. He's talking to one after another (in editing).

Uh-oh. An "emerging love triangle." The twins are trying to match. Liz tells Julie that Jeff must go home. Austin thinks he has a great relationship with both twins, but is especially close with Liz. (Yes, the twins are common knowledge with the hamsters, but both can't actually play in the house until after the fifth eviction.) Meanwhile, Jeff tries to campaign and flirt with Liz. Austin catches them under covers and gets all testosterone-y. The editing of the show so far is leaning towards Jeff staying. I personally think he will go. The vote should be after the commercial break.

The pleas to stay:
James -- Sorry me and you, Jeff. Love all of you, smile. Please vote to keep me.
Jeff -- Did not see it coming, love you all. Vote for you only. At the end of the day.
GAH. ATEOTD!

The votes to evict:
Jackie - James
Austin - Jeff
John - James
Meg - Jeff
Onto commercial ...
Clay - Jeff
Shelli - Jeff
Steve - James
Liz - James
Jason - Jeff
Becky - Jeff
Audrey - Jeff

By a vote of 7 to 4, Jeff is evicted.

Whoa, Julie says Jackie is a floater! Heh.

HoH Comp time. Going back in time -- 90s week, set of 1994 music video 'Bustin' Moves.' They'll watch dance "videos" -- the videos are live dancers -- and be asked true or false questions.

James, Jason, Clay and Steve out.
Meg and Austin out.

Liz and Shelli are the only ones to get the third question right. They're the new HoH duo.

Julie fills time asking questions.

She tells us the 90s will continue all week, but no BB Takeover in so many words. It seems they misjudged the timing on the live show tonight. The dancers came out twice and the hamsters answered the questions from Julie.

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds Overnight into Thursday - July 16

I liked him better before I knew him

Ah, it's the dawn of eviction day in the hamster house today. That always brings new life to the live feeds! Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Not So Jazzy Jeff:

Austin told James he should campaign more as Jeff is definitely campaigning.
James claims he doesn't want to throw Jeff under the bus, but he's heard Jeff has been doing that to him.
Initially, James and Jeff were close buddies.
But it's hard to stay friends when you're both nominated for eviction.
BB gave them more alcohol.
It always gets me that the amount of alcohol given is so little compared to the number of people in the house. I can't see why they get so excited.
Meg, Jason, Audrey and Shelli decided to put on a musical sketch.
Ack. Now I'll have nightmares about Frankie!
Jeff told Jackie that if he stays, he'll go after Vanessa.
Well, duh. That should go without saying. And, that's also Vanessa's fear and why she so wants him to go at this point.
Steve made a two week safety deal with James in exchange for his vote to save him.
Rumors about Audrey being America's Player continue to run rampant through the house.
Why do they think someone MUST be America's Player every darn season? More often than not, no one is America's Player.
And, certainly not a group of America's Players ... that's been going around the house, too.
Silly paranoid hamsters.
Jeff apparently is in no fear that Jackie will run back to Austin and Vanessa to tell them all the trashtalking he's doing about them.
Perhaps he should worry.
Jackie isn't in his corner.
But he thinks she is.
She was at one time. But she needs to look out for her own game.
And, he's not in her plans if he's out with the in crowd.
Meg told Chelli that she actually trusts Jeff more on a personal level than she does James, but knows he's going to go.
In other words, she'll probably do a sheeple vote even though she personally would keep Jeff.
Austin is worrying that Clay might have switched and may be on Jeff's side now. Before, Clay was reporting every wrong move Jeff made to him. Now, not so much.
Hmm.
Oh noes ... say it ain't so. Jeff outright CRIED to Shelli. Like tears and all.
@@
Now, that's pulling out all the cards.
I doubt it will save his butt, though.
We'll see tonight!

At least he can't pick shoulder pimples

It makes him taller!

Jeff/Jackie talk time

Shades of Frankie. Ew.

Big Brother 17: Live Feeds into Wednesday Evening - July 15

Jeff's no bro of mine!

Jeff's been telling a spool of lies and getting caught up in each and every one of them. Jeff is the new Audrey. (Although Audrey is back to her instigating bit by bit herself.) Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of The Loquacious HOH Lassie:

Vanessa clued Austin in on a tale Audrey told that she (Audrey) is in an alliance with Chelli.
Truth or fiction?
After all, Audrey has started planting those seeds once again.
Austin went into a long talk about his Masters degree and claimed he's never been able to get close to anyone (such as a woman in a relationship).
Now, the Masters bit might be real. But didn't he say he had the love of his life at home waiting?
He wasn't wearing his Judas hat.
Austin told her that his strategy was to eliminate all the guys.
Huh. I thought it was Jason who wanted to work with the girls!
Shelli thinks her name is being thrown around.
Well, yeah. It is. It should be!
More than one person is leery of the Chelli duo remaining intact.
Plus, you've got Audrey claiming an alliance with Chelli.
The Boy Toy just might be Shelli's death knell in the house.
Eventually.
It has now dawned on Austin and Vanessa that they probably can't rely on or trust Audrey.
D'oh!
Once again, they're thinking Audrey is America's Player.
We ain't got no steenkin' player in this Habitrail! Sheesh.
Now they have doubts about Chelli, too.
They know that John will be voting to keep Jeff. They thought Becky would.
But, Becky talked with Vanessa about all the lies Jeff has told and said she'd be voting for him to go.
Shelli told Vanessa and Clay that the Diary Room was giving her subtle hints to keep Jeff.
Hmm.
Despite Jeff's campaigning and (perhaps) Diary Room hinting, it looks like Jeff will be out tomorrow.
He's burnt too many bridges.
