BB22: PGA Tournament Delays East Coast Episode - 08/09

As Julie mentioned in the show's closing Wednesday, some areas may have the Sunday show on a delay. Well, that seems to be all of the East Coast. Due to the PGA tournament, Big Brother isn't even scheduled until 10pm EDT. I'm assuming that PDT should be the normal time; not sure of Mountain and Central. Check your local listings!

I will have a blog party post up for the 10pm EDT show as it's scheduled here.

They still don't have the yard.
 

BB22: Live Feeds into Sunday - 8/09


Intelligent and intriguing conversation

So, what's been happening inside that Big Brother House of A Season Sans Shownances?
  • By the way, I am loving no showmances and the older crowd. Although these hamsters have played the game before and maybe got it out of their systems, I'm finding many of the non-game conversations less vapid and some truly intriguing.
  • This show advertises itself as a "social experiment" but over the years has concentrated more on getting good-looking young model types or characters. This season we have many in the house thankful that they didn't have to do a bathing suit photo. Good.
  • One really worthy conversation took place between Kaysar and Ian. It was a long one on how the brain works when a person is autistic or on the spectrum. Kaysar said the other day he was on the spectrum. Ian, probably due to the stress and no yard, is really stimming hard the past few days. Kaysar missed his calling as a therapist.
  • During that long conversation, BB was sometimes cutting the feed. I think it had more to do with whatever was on the other two cameras than the Ian/Kaysar talk.
  • Now, there's something off the feeds happening that may affect the house this season and I think I'm seeing signs it has. 
  • Before the season started, I posted a link to an article about Derrick and Dan supposedly off the show due to Nicole F. saying they were pre-game strategizing.
  • That might be a bit off. 
  • It seems that it might be Nicole F. pre-game or even off-game strategizing with Derrick to help Cody through the game. And, it seems like Dan is involved as well. Janelle even mentioned something that Dan said to her. Hmm.
  • Whatever is going on, it's not good for Janelle, Kayser, Keesha, Kevin, Da'vonne or even Tyler or Bayleigh.
  • Oh, well. Out of my control but I'll keep watching the bloodbath called Twitter for the skinny on it.
  • Meanwhile, back in the house ... as I mentioned in my last update, Enzo won the Power of Veto.
  • He doesn't plan on using it but did mention to Cody that they could blindside Tyler.
  • Cody's sights seem to be set on Keesha leaving.
  • Just from the conversations of many, it seems like it will be Keesha.
  • To me, although her voice on the live feeds makes me cringe and turn down the volume, it's a shame. She's a good competitor and we barely have seen her in action.
  • In the name-calling department, I mentioned in another update that Keesha thought Tyler was Taylor or Trevor. Now Cody keeps calling David Kevin. I can only wonder whether he meant to put Kevin or "Not Really Kevin" on the block.
  • More seriously, I think he does know which one he nominated.
  • They should get the yard sometime today.
  • I see no kerfuffles or brouhahas on the horizon. BB can probably give them back the knives.

I used to like Dani better

Get it together, Kevin!

Is rumored pre-gaming going to hurt?

Nicole misses the night owls


It could be bye-bye Keesha

BB22" Power of Veto Winner Update



Yes, we have a winner!

Showing off the bling.

Oh my. Enzo won a comp. Chances are that he will not save Keesha. He probably won't use it at all, but definitely not on Keesha.

BB22: Live Feeds Brief into Saturday Night - 8/08

 

Waiting on a comp

They're still waiting on the Power of Veto comp to start. They were told 10pm (their time) start. Which, of course, would be 1am for me! Gah. They aren't allowed to nap. But they aren't the boss of me!

  • The Have Not people seem to be sick Ian was vomiting and Nicole feels horrible. Memphis is ill to a lesser extent. Kevin was already sick enough due to being on the block.
  • Keesha was calling Tyler "Taylor." When Janelle told her that wasn't his name, she asked if it was Trevor.
  • The veto players are (or will be): Cody, Keesha, Kevin with Ian, Enzo and Tyler being picked. 
  • Oh, wait ... at 10:27pm ET it went to adoptable pets which they use for long feed blocks such as comps. Maybe the 10pm was ET. But, still -- the comps can last hours. I'll post in the morning!

BB22: Live Feeds into Saturday - 8/08

 

Happy to be in a more mellow season

Yes, this is a bit late today. I had to be playing refrigerator repair technician in my kitchen. The good news is I succeeded! Maybe I have a new calling in life. It's good because do you know how expensive new refrigerators are these days?!? Yikes! Anyhow ... what has been happening in that Big Brother House of Happy Hamsters?

  • As you know from my last update, Cody nominated Keesha and Kevin for eviction and the Power Of Veto comp should be played out today.
  • Since that time Cody has spent much of his time explaining what a nice guy he is, had two days to get to know people, had to choose, woe is me that this is all on me, ad infinitum. 
  • See ... who says Latin is a dead language? It perfectly fits in with a phrase here and there!
  • Both Keesha and Kevin had crying bouts on and off. Neither seems angry with Cody. But neither wants to go home. I think Kevin is taking it worse than Keesha.
  • It seems Nicole A. may be doomed to repeat the mistakes of her past season -- putting trust in the wrong people.
  • Both Kaysar and Janelle wanted to work with her. She was star-struck.
  • Um, now the Cody Contingent wants to draw her in. And, she seems receptive.
  • I honestly think that, in the long run, the Kaysar/Janelle bunch would be better for her. I think the Cody Contingent would be quick to feel she's expendable, especially as they gather numbers.
  • Ian seems to be gravitating towards the Cody Contingent as well. But I think he has more confidence in his own abilities than Nicole A.
  • Alas, Ian did pinky swear on an alliance with Nicole F. as they are the only two past actual season winners in the house. 
  • Unfortunately, we have an Old School versus New School game afoot.
  • In other news, it's obvious that Dani hasn't kept up with the show. She was shocked that there was no key box and a video photo screen in its place. I can't recall when they introduced that but it had to be at least four seasons ago or so.
  • They played charades. I had to turn my volume down because of all of the excitement and screaming. These people really need the yard!
  • Ian said that he was very upset when he Googled himself online after BB14 ended and one of the first results was "Ian Terry autistic." He knew he exhibits symptoms but thought since no one in the house mentioned it, that no one noticed. 
  • Ian's mentions of that brought up Kevin telling of a physical disability/disease he was born with that has something to do with the chest muscles not developing right.
  • I'll report later on the PoV comp winner. Unless I've missed it (and I may have), I don't think players have been chosen yet.

Has she really learned from the past?
