Big Brother 20: Live Feeds Wednesday into Thursday - August 15/16

Not playing chess

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Blindside Bats:

• I thought they had all spoken their cases.
• I thought all of the retells and what ifs might take a day off.
• Nope!
• Kaycee held one on one meetings with her fellow hamsters.
• Obviously, with her own Level 6/4 people it was not campaigning. She knows they have her back.
• With the others? They don't really matter.
• Kaycee confirmed that she met in the DR and used her Hacker vote cancellation on Fessy's vote.
• That won't come to any surprise to anyone, including Fessy and Haleigh.
• JC, who has told Tyler and Kaycee that he will be voting for Kaycee to stay, still refuses to discuss his vote with Fessy and company.
• Fessy did NOT break anything lately.
• Fessy is so worried about being on "the wrong side of the vote" yet figures his vote will be cancelled by the Hacker.
• He should stop trying so hard with JC.
• Haleigh is getting increasingly worried that things won't turn out well for her.
• She's right to worry.
• Rockstar, on the other hand, is going between confident that she has the votes, will go on to win HoH and nominate Tyler and Angela and then worrying that she's going to be evicted.
• Thankfully her mood swings aren't quite Sammish.
• What about Sam?
• Well, she and Tyler talked. Of course, she loves everybody and would prefer everyone stay. But that's not how the game works! Tyler told her how he had been being set up by Haleigh for the backdoor plan this week and, had he not won the veto, she would have put him on the block. He can't vote out Haleigh, but has to vote Rockstar (and is sure everyone knows that's what he'll do) because she supports Haleigh. Sam ended up saying she's not going to tell anyone anything, but for Tyler to confirm what he wants her to do before the eviction and she'll do it.
• Haleigh and Fessy still think they have Fessy, Brett, Scottie, Sam and MAYBE JC. As long as they have three votes to keep Rockstar, Haleigh as HOH would vote the tiebreaker.
• We folks spying on the hamsters know that they only have Fessy and Scottie and Fessy's vote will be cancelled.
• Heck, Scottie might even flip. Sometimes it's hard to tell with him.
• JC told Tyler and Angela that they should set up Scottie as the fall guy for Brett's vote.
• They nixed that. After all, when Scottie came aboard with them before he was crying (real tears) about always being blamed for stuff from the Bayleigh/Haleigh camp.
• Yet, I did see JC planting little bits of seeds of doubt about Scottie with Rockstar and the others on and off.
• There was indeed lots of game talk yesterday and last night.
• But it's like the broken record (pardon the expression, any young 'uns on board) that we've been hearing for the last few days.
• Rockstar did tell the story of her name, though. When BB called her, they said there was another Angela (her own preferred name), so they suggested Angie. In her actual life, she's often referred to as Angela Rockstar. Producers picked up on that and decided instead of calling her Angie which might be confusing, they'd go with Rockstar.
• Now, isn't this all exciting?
• Tonight should be good TV!  

Angry exchange? Nah.

Will we see this expression tonight?

When I'm HoH, Tyler and Angela on the block!

Big Brother 20: Power of Veto SHow Blog Party - August 15

As the show airs here, I'll be live-blogging it -- refresh the page to get the latest news. As always, the real party is in the comments area. Please feel free to join in on the discussion!

Tonight's veto comp should be very entertaining! Grab your adult beverages and settle in a comfy chair ... 

Tyler has a pep talk trying to cheer up Sad Sam. She doesn't think he's been totally sincere with him. He likes her, wants things to be okay, but ... 

Tyler and Haleigh discuss the Hacker. Tyler tells her it's not him. She thinks it was Kaycee. Haleigh, of course, isn't going to tell Tyler that he's the backdoor target. She tells him he's not her target and Angela is. 

Rockstar thinks that Kaycee is shunning her and that she won the Hacker. Kaycee denies it and they bark at each other. Then Rockstar goes on a tangent about how unfair it is that she's on the block again.

Veto Player Pick time ... the Hacker chooses Tyler to play veto.Haleigh randomly pulled Rockstar, so Rockstar chooses Fessy as her player. Angela picks Kaycee. 

The Veto Comp --
The yard is done up woodsy and watery and OTEV is a big skunk. They have on antler hats. Poor OTEV has a cold and needs medicine. They have to find the right two previous hamster "medicines" on cards and return them to him.

Bring the medicine of the evicted houseguests who have been HoH. -- Kailynol with 200 mg of Bayleigh. Kaycee was right, but last up -- she's out.

OTEV Skunk even sprays them!

Evicted houseguests by a male HoH. -- Winston PM with Vitamin Steve -- Angela is eliminated, last up there.

Evicted houseguests who became a replacement in a veto ceremony. Nayleigh Gels with Extra Swaggy. Fessy last up, eliminated.

Last two houseguests evicted before jury. Whoa ... Rockstar gives Tyler an (accidental) heads up, she really was NOT thinking, his answer was wrong, he runs back. Tyler gets back first before Haleigh and Rockstar tells him he better save her, they can work with him. Racheltussin with Kaitlyn Oil. Haleigh out, last one up.

Houseguess evicted with eight or more votes. Rockstar runs up with an answer first. Jumping for joy and so are Haleigh and Fessy! Tyler finally comes up with an answer. Hey, Rockstar brought the Kaitlynol one! Tyler brought Swaggy with Kaitlyn oil. Rockstar out.

Tyler won the Power of Veto.
Rockstar cries. 

Rockstar tells Tyler not to forget it would have been her and Haleigh and he only won because of her giving him the right answer. In a DR Fessy compares his alliance to the Bad News Bears. 

Haleigh considers the renom possibilities. Fessy tells her Rockstar is a liability -- they don't want to put JC up and possibly lose him. He hinted Scottie. 

Tyler calls all inside for the veto meeting. Tyler himself gives a speech. Haleigh wanted him to not use the veto, but she was the Hacker last week, put him up on the block and he could have gone home. He saves Angela. Haleigh puts Kaycee back up on the block. Sam cries, but Kaycee doesn't.

Rockstar, in a DR, calls Angela a pretty, privileged Princess and vows she won't give up.

If I snuggle, he'll think I like him

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of A Sink is NOT a Chair:

• It wasn't a big evening for game talk outside of "when I get HoH" type conversations from people unlikely to win HoH.
• Right after my last report, JC coached Sam a bit on not telling everyone her vote after the eviction like she did last week when she was the sole vote to keep Bayleigh.
• He told her to keep her vote decisions quiet before and after the vote because the numbers are dwindling and people are looking for the next target.
• After he gave her all his advice, he told her that he'll let her know his vote just before eviction. I guess he's trying to let her know the way most will be voting.
• However, it seems she's likely to vote that way anyway.
• The other big thing of the night is that Fessy sat on the vanity in the HoH bathroom. When he put his feet up on the nearby tub and his full weight was on it, it ripped right off the wall.
• He tried saying he just leaned on it.
• Roll the tape, please.
• Heh.
• He tried to put it back together but BB yelled at him "Stop it!"
• Sam seemed to go to bed early and Rockstar was also missing most of the time, probably sleeping.
• Brett, Scottie and Fessy hung out a bit in the hot tub.
• Brett and Scottie tried to tell Fessy how the final three and the final HoH work as far as three-part HoH over days, last part live in the finale.
• Fessy seemed confused.
• What else is new?
• Since the yard will be shut down for the HoH comp set-up today, the die hard yard fans stayed up into the night playing pool, playing corn hole and just enjoying themselves.
• That's boring to watch!
• In a random note bit -- The only one this year even mentioning breast implants has been JC, none of the women. That's a big change from previous years! None of the women left except perhaps Rockstar (who had a child months ago) is particularly well-endowed in that part of their anatomy and they're fine with it (as they should be). JC only mentioned it because he thinks his own chest looks too flat ... I believe he was joking.
• Fessy can make his chest wiggle.
• I can't do that.
• I doubt we'll see much game action through the day today.
• As voyeurs, it will be boring.
• But tonight's OTEV veto comp show should be extremely entertaining! 

Oh noes!!! There goes the sink!

This is why we can't have nice things

Oopsie

Late night yard while they have it

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Tuesday Night - August 14

I've looked at clouds from both sides now

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Waiting Weevils:

• The plans for Thursday's eviction remain the same.
• The hamsters pretty much had a day of nothing today.
• Well, except for Rockstar, that is.
• She wasn't AS frantic running around campaigning but still worked what she could.
• Oh, and she also worked on being attached to Sam.
• Brett is helping Rockstar with her plea speech on eviction night.
• Her whole little speech made no sense. He should leave it that way or embellish a bit more.
• Heh.
• Fessy tried once again to get JC to tell him his vote (and that he would vote to keep Rockstar).
• JC shut him down.
• Fessy said he heard that JC will vote to keep Kaycee due to LGBT reasons.
• JC said it had nothing to do with his relationship with Fessy how he votes and he didn't want to talk about it.
• Then JC went on to listing all the stupid things Fessy's people around him have done -- Bayleigh gets a secret power, tells Rachel who tells / Kaitlyn backdoored Swaggy / Haleigh won the Hacker and her best friend got evicted / Haleigh got HoH and one of her allies is on the block / Rockstar gave Tyler a heads up on a wrong veto comp answer enabling his veto win.
• JC told Fessy that he would never be responsible for Fessy getting voted out and he knows Fessy would never be responsible for him (JC) getting voted out and they need to leave it at that.
• Sam talked forever about all of her family's dogs that have died over the years. Then she cried wondering if an old dog at home has died while she's stuck in this ____ing house.
• Overall, she's been better. But, every now and then, there she goes.
• Tyler was nicknamed T-Crisp in his school days. (Last name Crispen.)
• Now that JC's hair is growing in some from the shave job, it's evident he's balding at a young age.
• Both JC and Scottie, unless whispering, are way louder than the other hamsters. They make me keep messing with my volume.
• Fessy tends to lie down on his stomach with a pillow under his chest, thus obstructing his mic.
• I really don't have anything else for you. 

He couldn't find Haleigh

Why JC shaves his head and wears hats

T-Crisp tiny toes

This wasn't the HoH I wanted!

Level 6/4 all together? Oh my.

Big Brother 20: Live Feeds into Tuesday - August 14

Has kept superfan status secret from all

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Anxious Ants:

• Well, well, well ... things haven't changed any on the votes front since my last report.
• Rockstar should be evicted either 4 to 2 or 5 to 1, dependent on Sam's vote which should be for Kaycee to stay.
• But who knows with Sam?
• Sam doesn't seem to know with Sam these days as opposed to earlier in the season when she made her mind up quickly and kept it.
• I forgot to mention yesterday that while they were having the Veto meeting, new cups for all were delivered to the storage room.
• They were one cup short and, since she was the last one to claim one, Rockstar was without until she fussed for one.
• She should think of it as an omen.
• They had been drinking out of old peanut butter jars and such.
• Yes, the house came with regular glasses. But they want lids!
• Sam has been relatively stable.
• She hasn't blood-holed or curb-stomped anyone.
• BB should just buy their dollar store crafts and give 'em to her.
• It would keep her occupied -- kind of like weaving baskets.
• Brett told JC that he doesn't think anyone has done anything horrible to make everyone hate them this year. He knows people will love/hate but I think he's more referring to the BB15 racial stuff.
• I think if Level 6/4 actually makes final four together, Kaycee needs to step it up a lot or she won't be in the final three.
• That said, she would be a good one to sit next to at Final Two if against Tyler.
• If they can hang together until the final four, they'll definitely make the roster of Best BB Alliances Ever.
• Yet, with its ups and downs and constant blindsides, even though the alliances seem lopsided, this is still the best BB season in years.
• And, Tyler himself has kept his secrets -- superfan and even his Cloud power app to a point.
• Bayleigh was a bit onto him and will probably make the jury realize he was playing them all along if he gets to the end.
• But those left in the house now?
• Nope. Not even Scottie, who definitely knows the game.
• Silly hamsters. 

We haven't done anything horrible

A good ally and a good second placer

No more peanut butter jar drink cups

Stuck with the people she chose

Winner! Of staring off in space, that is.

Y'know, Sam did have a point.
