Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Sunday Morning - August 5

Having a good time with her punishment

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Pride and Punishment:

• Not much strategic happened in the late night/overnight hours.
• Angela will still take Tyler down and the plan is to backdoor Bayleigh.
• Last night ended up more about observing personal interactions.
• Fessy is worried that the show might be making his friendship with JC as being "weird" or stupid. Both Haleigh and Rockstar told them they're sure the show is having a lot of fun with it. (Which they are, of course.)
• Fessy quickly shut down Haleigh when she said something him worrying about seeming gay -- he said he's not worried about that at all. He just doesn't want to look stupid. (Well, he doesn't come across as the brightest bulb in the pack, but it's not due to his friendship with JC!)
• Fessy also said that, when he's evicted, he should pick up JC and carry him out the door with him! Now, THAT would be a hoot! He should do it! Of course, the show would make him give JC back, but ...!
• Rockstar is really changing and for the better. While she's still hanging some with Bayleigh, it's been Sam with her more.
• Rockstar is really working on her punishment and embracing it although she apparently has little or no chef skills at all. She says she prefers to eat healthy and exercise and this gives her the impetus to do both.
• Sam is helping her with the food prep tasks and exercising with her. She asked Rockstar if that bothered her at all and Rockstar said she loved her assistance.
• Rockstar and Sam talked well into the night about the game and life in general. No whacko self-chosen outfits and weird persona involved at all. She's bearable, even to the point of likable, when she's not trying to be so weird.
• Haleigh is completely bamboozled by Tyler. In a talk with Fessy, she went on about how Tyler was so out of his element in this game, too naive, too gullible, too innocent ... she feels sorry for him.
• BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
• Bayleigh continued to make brief appearances mimicking mingling with the others, but stayed either alone or with her crew most of the time. Sometimes with the bible, sometimes not.
• Scottie noticeably didn't hang around alone with Haleigh or Bayleigh.
• Haleigh, Rockstar and Fessy think that Sam is ex-military, perhaps a correction officer or a game warden. Rockstar had no clue what a game warden is. Haleigh told her but she definitely had parts of the job way off base. 
• Sam thinks she is going to be a great jury member -- she loves each one of them and wants to give each one special attention when they need it.
• That's really nice.
• But it's not Big Brother.
• Kaycee's peanut costume is a lot easier than many in the past.
• Brett's 24-hour InstaGranny hasn't come into play yet.
• Today will probably be on the boring side -- the PoV meeting isn't until tomorrow, the yard will be open and no real kerfuffles on the horizon.
• Tonight on the show, we'll see the Hacker winner.
• Most of them think it's Bayleigh. 
• The internet thinks it's Haleigh.
• I think it could very well be Haleigh, but if so I'm surprised she hasn't said a word to anyone. 

Mr. Gullible

Sir Bamboozle chows down

We're so good!

Becoming human

Take a picture, America! Um. Okay.

Kaycee's peanut costume better than many

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Saturday Night - August 4

Tyler consoles Scottie

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Take THAT, Hacker!:

• As I mentioned in my previous post, Angela won the Power of Veto.
• Tyler won a trip to Hawaii and Scottie won $5,000.
• Kaycee got a nut costume for a week. Brett got something called InstaGranny for 24 hours. I'm not sure what Rockstar got other than eliminated early.
• Of course and without a doubt, Angela will take Tyler off the block.
• In public and at the veto comp, she promised both Tyler and Scottie they would be safe.
• The Hacker winner, quite possibly but not confirmed to be Haleigh, had chosen Kaycee to play for veto.
• The Hacker obviously didn't realize that Kaycee would have also taken Tyler off the block.
• Most of the Level 4 (no longer 6) alliance think Bayleigh was the Hacker.
• The consensus among them is to backdoor Bayleigh.
• Scottie had a tearful talk with Tyler and Angela. 
• It's dawned on him that the girls in his alliance, more so than Fessy, have been blaming everything on him, using him and making him swear on the Bible almost every time he tried to defend himself.
• Aha! More ammo for Level 4!
• Angela wants to use the "making people swear on the bible" bit in her veto speech.
• Tyler likens it to Kaitlyn wanting him to swear on his dead father.
• Now, Level 4 isn't just going to accept Scottie into the fold with open arms.
• But, like with Sam and JC (not in Level 4), they will be willing to work with him and try to protect them.
• And, they won't threaten him.
• He will be a lone wolf anyway. Might as well not be an abused lone wolf.
• Rockstar, Scottie and Tyler were talking shortly after the feeds returned. Rockstar was all depressed. Tyler tried to tell her she would be safe now when he comes off the block. "No, that means you're safe," she said. He had to go into detail that whoever went up in his place would be a backdoor and the target would be off of her.
• Duh!
• I need to mention something that annoys me as much, if not more, than Haleigh chewing her fingernails -- JC NEEDS TO STOP TAPPING STUFF! Often whatever he is tapping is at his chest level and the mic picks up loudly on it. The worst is the Jenga block tapping. But all needs to stop.
• Fessy is worried that he will be the replacement nom.
• Nah, not yet, Fessy. Eventually, though, eventually.
• Ah, Rockstar's punishment is some kind of Jessie Fitness Diet thing. Jessie was the host of their PoV comp.
• Bayleigh and Haleigh are scrambling. 
• They need to be. 
• Haleigh and Rockstar even went to Angela saying there was a "boys alliance" that all the guys are in.
• Oh my, do they think Angela still has faith in the girls alliance? (Not that she ever did.)
• I think that Angela's mind is already made up and it sure should be interesting when it goes down! 

Scottie feels used and abused

Would rather the trip or the money

Duh. What do they mean I'm safe now?

Well, this is a series of unfortunate events

Let's blame everything on Scottie!

It pays to have a good alliance.

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds, PoV Winner - August 4

Why did Scottie want the veto so bad?

The veto comp (blocked to the live feeds) is done and over. It was a running little balls balancing kind of prize and punishment comp. And, of course, the earlier ones out could lose what they won by the later hamsters.

Angela is getting all kinds of heat for refusing to take five grand from Scottie in trade for the veto. He begged her. However, Tyler had yet to go, she didn't know what was in the boxes and she, most of all, wanted to ensure Tyler's safety.

Angela won the veto. She plans to pull Tyler down. Her teammates claim it will expose Angela/Tyler closeness. They're coming up with stories that she promised Tyler safety because she couldn't deal with granny panties. Um, sounds good to me as long as she takes Tyler down!

Bras do serve a purpose

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Too Many Twists:

• I've seen online where Julie Chen mentions there will be yet another big twist before the season is out.
• I wouldn't want to be a house hamster. 
• Then again, I would never be one anyway.
• Overall last night was pretty much as Bayleigh said at one point -- "This place is a ghost town."
• No one has admitted to being the hacker winner who took Scottie down and put Tyler in his place on the block.
• The hacker can still nullify one vote and pick a veto player.
• That's a heck of a lot of power! Thankfully, from what I've read, this twist will only last two weeks. So, we go through it again next week. Argh.
• Rumors outside the house have it that Haleigh won the hackers comp. Now, IF she did, I'm thinking she wouldn't put herself to play veto -- she's not good in comps. AND, if she were to choose someone else, she would want to tell them what to do. So, if it's her, that might expose her.
• Of course, we should find out in Sunday's show who won it. 
• In the house, Tyler, Kaycee and Angela are increasingly thinking Bayleigh has it.
• They still have it in their minds to backdoor Bayleigh if they can.
• Sam has a new idea that she wants to precook several dishes that the others can just heat up and serve at will.
• Gosh, Sam would be such a good roommate in a cabin in the woods! She cooks, she cleans, she's so handy with stuff, knowledgeable about nature ... she just might not be the epitome of a BB hamster. But she's pretty darn hardworking and amazing. 
• Of the guys, Brett is the most handy in the kitchen and does his fair share of dish washing and stuff. JC tries to cook, but often burns things.
• Tyler is psyched to win today's veto comp and take himself off the block.
• Rockstar is sure her own run is over and is thinking about the jury house.
• Fessy is really confused.
• But what else is new?
• Tyler has decided that Scottie is loyal to him and would take him down if he wins the veto.
• And, it sounds like the veto is on already!
• The hamsters were awakened VERY early and we went to BB reruns on the feeds for the veto player pick.
• In addition to Angela, Tyler and Rockstar we have Brett, Scottie and Kaycee playing.
• Out of the people playing, I think Rockstar is about the only one who wouldn't save Tyler. Perhaps Scottie wouldn't, but Tyler did save Scottie once and Scottie is a loyal kind of guy.
• We'll see.  

Winston would be proud

Figuring the numbers

Finally quasi-covering a gaping yawn

NO! Nonononono! Make it stop!

"I identify with Schroeder in Peanuts."

BB Voice: I SAID IT'S TIME TO GET UP!

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds, Hacker Comp. Friday - August 3

Lots of fish cam and reruns today

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

• The Hacker Comp had them taken from the house and had to do with typewriting words related to BB from available letters.
• No one admitted to winning it.
• Many think Scottie won it.
• He (like everyone else) denied winning it.
• He might have gone a bit too far in saying it made no sense for him to win. He kept saying he wouldn't be able to play for veto and a few other excuses why it wouldn't make sense for him to win and put someone in his place.
• They got called into the Diary Room one by one.
• And then we got reruns.
• I really didn't want to see Frankie.
• Oh noes!
• The Hacker winner took Scottie off the block and replaced him with ... TYLER.
• Rockstar is very upset.
• Bayleigh thinks someone from "the other side" did it.
• That other side is Tyler's side.
• Hmm.
• It's looking like Scottie to me!
• There's also talk the Hacker winner can replace a vote and another rumor about veto.
• Straight up as is, Tyler would stay over Rockstar.
• Hmm.
• JC, Kaycee and Angela think Bayleigh won it. They're trying to figure out which person's vote she'll cancel and if she will choose herself for veto (?).

Psst. I think either Tyler or Brett won

Will I be in danger?

Brett: I think Scottie has it.

Stop chewing your fingernails!

No, I didn't win it.

I just wish it was over!
