BB19: Live Feeds into Sunday Morning - July 2

Is this thing really comfortable?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Talk Shows Gone Wild:
  • Again, there's not all that much to report.
  • The big thing is that they put on a talk show -- Dominque interviewed two hamsters (Kevin, then Mark), asking questions regarding being in the house and such.
  • Kevin wore his favorite suit and looked spiffy indeed.
  • He, as usual, was funny.
  • They better keep him in the house at least most of the summer, if not all. He's the most entertaining hamster we've seen in years.
  • Plus, we know we won't have to endure a showmance with him -- he would NEVAH!
  • The second guest, Mark, wore his favorite workout clothes. A lot of his questions were regarding his showmance with Elena.
  • Oh my.
  • All during the "show" Paul and Christmas were together, often caressing each other's arms, legs and such.
  • Ew! Ew!
  • I thought Christmas had more sense than that!
  • Jessica and Cody were noticeably absent from the studio crowd. Alex didn't seem to be there either. Nor was Josh.
  • The plan is to have these "shows" on Sundays and Wednesdays from now on.
  • Jason apparently wears his cowboy hat all the time not just because he's a rodeo clown, but he's pretty bald.
  • He should embrace his baldness!
  • Alex told Jillian that she thinks that Kevin would vote to keep her over Cowboy.
  • They know that Paul has safety for this first week.
  • They don't know he has it for the next three weeks.
  • Thanks a lot, TV only watchers. YOU don't have to listen to him dominate every single conversation, peppering all with profanities, when he's in a room.
  • I honestly think he can't say a sentence without cuss words thrown in.
  • While almost all in the house tend to potty mouths, he's the worst case scenario.
  • Cody is still keeping his replacement choice to himself.
  • But they're all thinking it's Jason.
  • Cody thinks it's every woman''s dream to be with a Marine.
  • Gah. 
  • Cody, when questioned by Jessica, told her that whenever Paul and Christmas are in a room, the atmosphere changes.
  • Jessica told him that Paul is to her like Alex seems to be to him (Cody). Paul saved her with the friendship bracelet and she feels the need to protect him a bit.
  • Mark told Paul that Elena might be playing him with the showmance and he knows Alex is coming after showmances. Will he give Elena up? I don't know. But he is definitely having second thoughts about getting involved.
  • Paul told Mark that Kevin can be trusted.
  • I'm not sure when the PoV ceremony will be. When I know, you'll know.

BB19: Live Feeds into Saturday Evening - July 1

You guys on 19 are so much better for me!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Social Butterflies:
  • Oh my gosh ... a whole lotta nuthin' happened.
  • No brouhahas to speak of.
  • Not even a real kerfuffle.
  • So, this is mostly observational tonight.
  • I watched Jess and Cody talking alone in the kitchen -- just talk about school sports they took part in and stuff. He came across as almost normal until ...
  • ... the BB voice told all the hamsters to go into the house. All of a sudden he became Mannequin Man, just sitting and staring. 
  • It's not like he doesn't know these people by now.
  • He makes my reaction in crowds look normal.
  • Paul is still Paul. He's overplaying his social game, methinks. He was telling them how much better they are than the BB18 cast.
  • Hmm.
  • He's definitely bitter over the vote last season even though he told them he liked Nicole the best of all in the house -- even over Victor.
  • He and Victor have grown apart since the end of the season. No surprise there!
  • Then there's Josh. He has calmed down and now seems to be scrambling to try to redeem himself.
  • Too late. He's already proved to be a loose cannon.
  • No, I don't know why Kevin told Paul he took the money. Perhaps so that Paul might have some kind of loyalty to him for getting him back in the house.
  • But, we know that if Kevin had hit his buzzer, most of the others tried.
  • He would have made it back in just as he did.
  • In the strategy arena -- Alex told Cody she'd save Jillian with the veto if he would protect her and put Jason on the block. Cody does seem to have something to prove with his loyalty to Alex, said he will protect her until they get to jury.
  • Hmm.
  • We still don't know how Alex ended up on the block in Megan's place.
  • Alex thinks Cody threw the PoV to her.
  • How did he end up putting her on the block? Gah! It's driving me bonkers.
  • There ya go ... 

Mannequin Man!

BB19: Live Feeds Overnight into Saturday - July 1

No changes at the pool/hot tub

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Hungry Hamsters:
  • Heh. Apparently (blocked to the live feeds), Kevin was a mermaid host for the PoV comp. 
  • I was wondering the thinking behind putting him in this cast, but now I definitely get it. His kids got him to apply. He doesn't know the show. He's old enough to be the father of his fellow hamsters. The guy IS funny. Plus, in a way, he's a breath of fresh air being so unfamiliar with the show and actually admitting it. We've seen so many recruits come in oblivious and pretend they're experts. I am entertained by him. He's very different from what we see most seasons.
  • Just to bring you up to snuff if you've been living under a BB fake rock -- Megan and Jillian were the nominees. Megan exited the house on her own volition. Alex was put on the block in her place. Alex won PoV. Jessica and Cody are the first showmance of the season.
  • Although she'll be safe this week with the PoV, Jessica and Raven want to target Alex next. They think she's too good at comps and also believe that Cody has a soft spot or wants to protect her.
  • Christmas also doesn't care for Alex -- she thinks Alex is too aggressive with everyone in the house.
  • Now, I myself am surprised by Alex. I had the impression of "bimbo" in her Jeff interview and she's turning into anything but a bimbo. She's truly a competitor. I like that. But, of course, if I were a house hamster, I'd think of her as a threat to my game.
  • Meanwhile, Cody told Mark that his loyalty to Alex is just a ploy to show the others that he can be loyal to anyone.
  • Um. Okay. 
  • We know Josh is weird, but so is Cody.
  • Just a different kind of weird.
  • Cody's bro-alliance doesn't seem like they're going to stay all that loyal to him.
  • He seems to have a fixation with his combat days in the service. Hmm.
  • Jason knows he's being considered for the replacement nom.
  • Even those closest to Cody aren't sure what he's going to do. He's very tight-lipped.
  • Cody is odd. He told a story about going to Ferguson during the riots "just to see if I would survive." Say what? 
  • Plus, he sits there like a robot half the time. He creeps me out more and more.
  • A staring robot.
  • A lot of them are sporting bruises, pains and scrapes from the veto comp.
  • They all went to bed early last night.
  • While I haven't heard the exact words from his mouth -- I had to skip all around the flashbacks to catch up on the feeds -- I do think Paul has the three weeks of safety. Someone was talking about it, but didn't exactly come out and say "Paul." but that seemed the case in context.
  • More later! 

If I go, do I get paid for two weeks?

BB19: Live Feeds, PoV, through Friday Afternoon - June 30

This is so cool!
Instead of showing fish cam or Jeff interviews while the live feeds were blocked for the PoV comp, we got KITTIES! I'd rather watch them frolic any day than endless loops of Jeff interviews!

Tonight's live feeds report is going to be rather short, perhaps not too sweet (their fault, not mine). I'm coming off a hectic horrible chaotic day of work and my mind is a bit frazzled. I hope that excuse also covers any typos I might make!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Wanton Wombats:
  • First off, not live feeds per se, this article is Megan talking to local reporters in her hometown about why she left the show. 
  • Lots of drama going on.
  • Alex won the PoV.
  • They're still trying to figure out who took the money and started the Paul/Cameron swap.
  • Alex will definitely take herself off the block.
  • Cody had said he wanted to backdoor Paul if one comes down.
  • Um.
  • If Paul gets chosen (rumor is he was, but I didn't see actual confirmation) for the Pendant of Safety, that can't happen.
  • Everyone seems to want someone else up there.
  • The girls are getting catty about each other.
  • Jason's name has been thrown in the mix for nomination.
  • I just don't know.
  • Cody is kind of creeping me out. He sits and stares whenever in with others. Well, except for kissy-facing Jessica. He probably stares at her and the camera angle just can't catch it.
  • I do know I'll be more awake and coherent in my next report.


Too early for this!

Drama, drama

Ghost of Audrey?

Turning into a little spitfire!

BB19: Live Feeds into Friday - June 30, 2017

Social circles

You know, it would be nice to see what happens on the first few days in the house. By the time the live feeds come on, they've usually been in there for a week or more -- we miss initial fights, bondings, etc. Grr! It's hard to butt in there and try to figure where everyone stands with whom. Oh, well. Here's what I garnered from the late night live feeds ...
  • Megan SELF-EVICTED!
  • You heard me. She's gone. Her photo is greyed-out on the wall and all -- like they do upon eviction. Since they haven't played for PoV yet, there has been no eviction.
  • But, she's gone.
  • In her place on the block is Alex. 
  • In other news, Jessica and Cody are all kissy-face already. It's going to be a long summer. Sigh.
  • They're all still trying to figure out who took the 25 grand.
  • Josh remains unbalanced. For someone who talked all so tough, he's like a small child at summer camp away from his family and homesick.
  • He;s driving everyone away, thinks he's being targeted as a man and a person, but loves them all.
  • Oh my, boy has issues!
  • Aha, they are on the 9th day in the house -- we've missed so much!
  • Wah.
  • Paul is mingling well.
  • Well, not with Cody, per se. He still will be backdoored if Alex or Jillian come off the block with the PoV.
  • They already have Have Nots -- Josh is one of them, heh.
  • I know. I have a cruel streak in me.
  • Dominique had a heated argument with Josh (because he's so annoying).
  • Poor picked on Joshie.
  • Hmm. Part of the Megan bit came about apparently because Megan told Alex that Jessica said a racial slur about her, but it wasn't true. They think Megan made it up to stir the pot.
  • Of course, we don't really know because the live feeds weren't live!
  • Alex thinks Christmas urged Cody to put her up.
  • We're not seeing much of Cody. He's too busy throwing himself into a showmance.
  • Kevin can't understand why some people just have the goal of making it to jury. Hey, I'm with him on that one!
  • That's all for now ... laters!
