Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Wednesday - July 4

We're running this show!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Hamazon Hamsters:

• One thing I am liking about this season so far -- something new and different for BB -- the hamsters tend to keep their clothes on (for the most part). Now, I grew up with brothers. They rarely ran around the house shirtless. And I almost never walked around in a bathing suit unless I was going to go swimming.
• Yeah, I'm a voyeur watching these hamsters. But not for the sex appeal, I'm not a voyeur!
• The rock wall got some use yesterday.
• I prefer to watch that rather than chess but all I can think of is foolishness and falls.
• The long feeds cut yesterday was apparently practice for the HoH comp. 
• I guess the practice was yesterday not today because they didn't want to pay more for a full staff on the holiday.
• Yes, this is the show that ends up buying dollar store toys.
• They think will be able to practice more today. But, I guess the initial practice had lots of instruction. They'll have ten balls each, so it has to be one of the crapshoot comps coming.
• Tyler tried to work on bringing Kaitlyn over to his side, even to the point of hinting that Sam might have a power.
• But he didn't come out and say it.
• Kaitlyn once again cried to Fessy because ... well, she's not his only interest in the house.
• Mind you, she speaks of a boyfriend at home. Often.
• Kaitlyn is as dippy as I thought she would be from reading her bio and not seeing her in action.
• Brett and Haleigh hung out together, flirting a bit but amounting to little.
• Fessy is not happy that she's hanging around Brett.
• Poor Fessy. He knows Kaitlyn's been hanging around Tyler, even Rockstar hanging with Tyler to a lesser extent -- his harem is slinking away?
• Scottie and Sam talked. He told her that she can't play the game right when she's a robot.
• Y'think?
• SamBot, knowing that Scottie is Steve's ride or die, lied to him and told him she didn't get the power.
• Swags doesn't think Fessy's Hamazon punishment for lowest trending was all that bad. Thus, he thinks, the reward for best trending probably isn't all that.
• Heh.
• Then again, Swags thinks if they gave the girls lap dances, it would make great TV. @@
• He also thinks he's running the house. @@
• Kaitlyn continued to bond with Tyler. I don't think she's adept enough to even think of playing both sides of the house.
• We'll see how that goes.
• They never did get more practice time last night.
• Maybe today ...

A clean window is a happy window.

Femme fatale?

Domo arigato, Mrs. Roboto, domo!

Not a manscaper, obviously.

Miss Manners did not school JC.

Fessy without his hair slicked back.

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Tuesday - July 3

I don't predict marriage

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Wanton Wusses: 

• With the normal schedule loused up, the down time for these hamsters is even longer than usual.
• Lots and lots of talk about the next HoH and nominations when they're still a couple of days away from the first eviction.
• Steve is sure he has a solid seven votes.
• I don't think his votes are all that solid.
• But it won't really matter for Sam if he wins the vote anyway.
• Meanwhile, Rachel and Angela are scrambling for seven votes to keep Sam.
• Tyler is indeed the only one knowing Sam has a power. He doesn't know the details but knows Sam would rather save it if she can.
• Well, the votes are to be evicted, not to stay. But you know what I mean.
• They got a SnapChat event, glasses and all in the house.
• I never really wanted to know what I'd look like with a puppy face.
• If you can't tell, I'm not a big SnapChat fan. Not at all.
• Winston is already worried about a double eviction. @@
• JC and SamBot married with Rockstar officiating.
• I don't think that's going to be a legal wedding!
• Fessy swore to Allah to Kaitlyn that she's his Number One in the game.
• Oh, geez. He himself should be his Number One. Oh, wait. He'd be happy to make it to jury. I forgot that.
• Kaitlyn has worries that Fessy is also telling Haleigh the same thing.
• For a "Life Coach" she has many insecurities and comes across to me as rather needy.
• Oh ... and, after that, Kaitlyn runs to Tyler telling him he's the only one she feels safe with. 
• @@
• Plenty of cracks developing in the Swags/Fessy camp. Haleigh and Kaitlyn on the outs. Kaitlyn and Swaggy on the outs.
• Wait ... I see a common denominator there!
• Fessy and Bayleigh aren't going to be BFFs either.
• Heck, even Fessy and Swags had a kerfuffle because Swags wouldn't help with the last Hamazon delivery. (It all has to be eaten.)
• Not surprisingly, JC was a Mark fan (BB19). I think he too feels he's there for vacation and partying.
• While JC really does nothing for his own game, he has been trying to swing Rockstar into voting to keep Sam.
• Tyler is working on Kaitlyn for the Keep Sam Movement. He tried to point out to her that (with all the drama) she picked the wrong side. And, as she's used to studying people, she should know that.
• But I think her unrequited love of Fessy may hinder that.
• Drama, drama, drama. I think I just might rather be a Robot Online in this house!
• We had a long feeds block which just ended a bit ago.
• I don't know what happened.
• But Kaitlyn's crying again.
• Oh, well. 

Haleigh is feeling better

Has to be bad on the back

Spinning wheel gotta go 'round

SamBot blinded him with science

I've got seven solid votes

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Monday Morning - July 2

Bandana can't hide the man-bun

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Juvenile Jellyfish:

• Angela thinks the next HoH should put Fessy and Bayleigh on the block and backdoor Swaggy.
• That's fine and dandy. But I have a feeling that they can't just assume that Fessy or Swaggy won't win HoH, especially if it's a physical comp.
• Meanwhile, Swaggy and Fessy want one of them to win HoH and nominate Winston and Angela.
• Tyler said Fessy told him he wants to make it to jury.
• Tyler wants to win a half-million dollars and thinks that should be the goal of all the house hamsters.
• More small talk than game talk into the wee hours.
• First we had Haleigh sick, now Angela is sick.
• I can see whatever it is spreading throughout the house in such tight quarters and so many people. Ew.
• Heh. Yesterday before the veto meeting a couple of people pranked Fessy, hiding his veto necklace until BB yelled at them to give it back. Apparently Fessy thought he actually lost the power!
• Can we say recruit?
• Whoa! Now, Brett is lying about his occupation. BUT ... Fessy is sure WINSTON is lying about his (medical sales rep) because he didn't know something about an anchor to fix a shoulder. 
• I guess a "real" medical sales rep must have working knowledge of the gazillion items used in the medical field, huh?
• Silly Fessy.
• Kaitlyn and Haleigh are sure Winston is a doctor.
• Silly gals.
• Yet they think Steve is a mechanic.
• The prom they were going on about on Saturday, supposedly for Sunday evening? It didn't happen.
• Haleigh thinks Swaggy is mean to her ... or something. He wanted to check where she stands because she seems to be getting close to Brett. He "attacked" her by asking.
• @@
• Fessy consoles her.
• Aw.
• Swaggy wants to work in TV or be one of the ever-returning BB houseguests. Really? We couldn't tell he thought he was a BB superstar already? He's so shy, unassuming and humble.
• Dang ... JC was up washing dishes at 6am! He beat the East Coast hamsters!
• Winston was up, too. But not doing anything. Fessy had to get up for a Hamazon delivery at about 6:15 their time.
• Steve and Swaggy, the up early East Coast dudes, slept in a bit.
• So far this morning, the biggest news is that Robot went online and they all complained that Steve snores too loud. 

Rachel makes a point?

Too vain to wear his eyeglasses

Fixing his name on the inside?

Oh, Fessy ... that's SO messy!

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Sunday Evening, PoV - July 1

Giving Tyler a progress report on Sam

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Misfit Mice:

• The feeds were blocked for the PoV ceremony -- everything is so off schedule so far!
• As he had said before ... Fessy did NOT use the Power of Veto.
• Sam and Steve remain on the block.
• About the second biggest game news of the day is that Rachel's advice to Sam seems to be working.
• Sam and SamBot is/are making more of an attempt to actually talk to the others, get to know them and let them get to know her.
• She previously worked herself into such a state that people thought she was ready give up and go home.
• Hopefully, this second wind will last.
• In other news, Swaggy continues to dig his own grave with his bravado and trying to be Big Man on Campus.
• Now, he does have the ability to win comps.
• But if he doesn't cut down on his Swaggyr, he's eventually going to blow his own game.
• I had to laugh when Sam came out after Robot Offline quoting an old Eminem song. She got through a few lines and production didn't seem to realize it was a song.
• Heh. Sam said to either us or just herself that the show took all these people, stuck them in a house and made them think it was middle school all over again.
• Swaggy wants to turn everyone against Winston.
• Winston ain't too fond of Swaggy neither.
• Yes.
• Middle school. I've been mistakenly believing it was high school.
• Tyler told Sam that no one other than he knows she has the power.
• They're going to make it like Brett has it.
• Cracks are appearing with the girls on Swag/Fessy side. Rockstar is getting more irked all the time with Kaitlyn's flirting because Kaitlyn said she has a man at home.
• Hmm. 
• I get irked with Rockstar shoving huge amounts of food in her face and chewing with her mouth open and gobs of food hanging out.
• EW!
• Angela wants to start a movement to call Swags by his real name -- Chris.
• Fessy thinks that if Sam finds out that she doesn't have the votes to stay, she might self-evict.
• Heh.
• First, she very well could have the votes.
• Second, as we know ... she's not going anywhere. 

Actual Sam hands mingling with the boys

SamBot is trying kinder and gentler

Guess who's back? Slim Shady or Sam

Do NOT turn that camera around!

Ew! Close your mouth when you chew!

Big Brother 20: Sunday Show Blog Party - July 1

Since the schedule is out of whack right now, I'm not sure what all we can expect from tonight's episode. If they show the PoV, what will they show on Wednesday? Hmm.

Anyway ... whatever they show, I'll be live-blogging it as it airs. Refresh the blog to get the latest! And, of course, the real party is in the comments -- I hope to see you there! 

Expect the expected "previously on Big Brother ..." 

Steve is going to show them being on the block doesn't faze him at all. Meanwhile, Sam is a sad little robot. And, Tyler is now crying to Steve and Kaycee. He tells us it's an act. Steve seems to fall for it. 

SamBot is in the storage room and wants the others to come talk to her one at a time. It's rough being a Bot. Tyler doesn't want to see her go home this week. Kaitlyn has no sympathy and tells SamBot to go win the veto. Tyler was there and not into SamBot's cursing and upset reaction to Kaitlyn.

Scottie and Steve talk. Steve tells Scottie he thinks he's a beast. He tells us that Scottie's social game is lacking. He thinks his own social game is the bomb. Steve wants to be in an alliance with him. Oh my. Scottie likes Steve, too! A platonic bromance/alliance is starting!

Swags is smitten with Bayleigh and they're already cuddly. 

Oh, geez. Kaycee thinks her pinwheel punishment is so bad because she misses being with people when she's stuck in a room. Would she prefer to be a robot? 

The first numbers alliance of the season is named -- Level 6. Winston, Tyler, Kaycee, Brett, Angela and Rachel. They've already got intel that Angela's name is being thrown around as a target by Swags and Co.

I'm beginning to think this episode will be all filler segments. Sigh.

Swags isn't too pleased he's falling into a showmance. He didn't want that.

We're talking fluff filler even. 

I might just go bonkers. Kaitlyn was looking for guidance and she thinks her deceased relative showed up as a bird in the yard.

Poor SamBot. She turns back into herself but now has doubt about herself as a person. She feels like an outsider and that's not how she is in life. She might be sadder as a human than she is as a robot. 

Slop has arrived! Time for some Have Nots! Tyler must choose the first four Have Nots. He asks for volunteers. Kaitlyn, Brett, Winston and Scottie volunteer. The beds are satellite dishes. Poor little volunteers. 

Swags and Fessy want to bring in Brett and Winston to their side as a solid four to powerhouse the whole thing. Winston deliberately avoids them. Brett, on the other hand, thinks a bit friendlier approach in case the power shifts.

Tyler is thinking he might want to put up Swaggy's closest ally (that's not already safe) -- Bayleigh. 

Fessy, Swags, Rockstar, Haleigh and Bayleigh come up with an alliance name (suggested by Kaitlyn). Fotay -- Five of us together till the end.

BB App Store is open -- highest trending gets a Power App, lowest gets a Crap App. They can only get one per game -- sort of like the Temptation thing.  

Ohhh ... Fessy gets the Crap App as the Least Trending Houseguest. He gets to make a selection from several choices. He goes with Hamazon thinking at least it will be food. He finds out he has to eat ham every delivery and hopes it's fake ham. 

Sam gets the Power App! She has fewer power apps than the punishment one. She picks Bonus Life. She or houseguest of her choosing can return to house within the first four evictions.
