BB22:Live Feeds, Power of Veto - August 16

 

Is that hat really necessary?

I think BB hates East Coast people. Yeah, it must. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Disgruntled Doggies:

• Waiting for the Power of Veto comp to start was ridiculous. The hamsters thought it rough, they should try to live here!
• We had one long feeds block with the adoptable animals.
• But it wasn't the comp.
• It was the first of Ian's Safety Suite Plus One punishment and we weren't allowed to see it.
• But we did catch a few performances later on before the Veto comp played out (and blocked the feeds again).
• Ian has been assigned four different vignettes from Big Brother Star Wars.
• The first one we saw had him acting out three different roles in costume in a scene. I liked his robot the best.
• The second scene, a long time after the first, he recruited a volunteer to help him -- Da'vonne jumped into the role of Baron Odious who gets killed by Ian's character. 
• In another one, Nicole A helped him.
• Ian had fun with it -- he always gets a kick out of the punishments. 
• But I can see it wearing thin as it goes on for the week. He has to do the performances at BB's whim.
• Even the audience grew tired of it.
• But it's possible that waiting on the PoV comp to start affected their behavior.
• It affected mine!
• Finally, just shy of 3:30am my time, the PoV comp started.
• When I got up not too many hours later, it finally ended.
• Memphis won.
• I don't know what he'll do with it. After all, he made the nominations as HoH. Will he want to alienate someone else?
• But, then again ... Memphis is an odd unpredictable duck. You never know.

Thespian at large

And drama ensued

The literally captive audience

I can't win ANY comps!

BB22: Live Feeds into Saturday Afternoon - August 15

 

I'm surprised Dani's not targeted

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Wayward Boys and Girls:

• As I mentioned in my last update, Memphis put Nicole A and David on the block.
• That had been his plan, along with Ian as a back-up if someone is saved with the veto.
• The Ian bit is out the door as Christmas saved him with the Safety Suite Plus One.
• I had mentioned that Memphis was irked about the save as (he claims) Nicole F had saved Ian from being a Have Not just that morning. I found out how she did that -- apparently this year the Have Nots each name someone to be a Have Not the next week. Ian was named and Nicole F stepped in to take his place.
• Ain't that sweet?
• It's about the only sweet thing she's done this season!
• Anyway ... back to the nominees ...
• Nicole cried some and is upset because she thought that Memphis wasn't going to nominate her after their pre-nomination talk. She told the others that Memphis did not encourage her to play in the Safety Suite while he's going around telling people that he told her she should play. Her tale is the truth. Eventually she turned back into her little I CAN DO THIS persona.
• Then there's David.
• He says he's more upset about the words Memphis used ... for the second time in a day ... than being nominated. After all, he's 30 years old and a grown man! 
• I found out in a later conversation David was having with Christmas that Memphis told him during nominations that he wanted to sit at the grown-ups table so there you go. And, apparently he made a similar reference about David not being worthy of All Star in the Have Not ceremony.
• That triggered all kinds of inadequacies for David. From what he is saying to others, he has always felt to be an outsider and not a part of any group either due to being Black or just plain old being David.
• From their conversations throughout the house, it sounds like everyone except Memphis think that Memphis was rude, harsh and it was uncalled for.
• So, David cried some, too. Now he magically thinks he can win the Power of Veto and save himself.
• I guess we'll see.
• Meanwhile, Kevin is still acting way too nervous and others are picking up on it. Janelle, Kaysar and Bayleigh had a long talk about Kevin getting on their nerves and being too needy.
• While Da'vonne and Janelle were talking late last night the BB Voice said, "Da'vonne ... please move your hair away from your microphone." Both of them were shocked by the specification in the announcement as they have never heard that kind before.
• I wasn't surprised. Her hair was muffling up the mic as well as making scratchy sounds. I totally understood the direction!
• Ian apparently isn't getting his costume/punishment until after the PoV comp.
• Enzo will be hosting the comp while Memphis, Nicole A, David, Nicole F, Ian and Tyler play.
• I'll let you know when I know.

I haven't a clue but I will win!

If ever a man NEEDED a man-bun

YIKES! Call hair maintenance!

Aww, think unicorns kiddo!

BB22: Live Feeds Nominations Brief - August 14

 

Yes, the feeds were blocked once again -- most of the day for the Safety Suite and the latest was the nominations block.

I called it right. Memphis nominated David and Nicole A.

David is really ticked off. Apparently Memphis was nasty to him during the Have Not announcement. Now he's going on about his "words" during nominations. He says he doesn't know where the hate is coming from.

Hmm.

BB22: Quick Live Feeds Safety Suite Update - August 14

 

Trevor seems worried

This is going to be very short, but not real sweet. The amount of time the feeds were blocked -- nearly all day -- has irked me to a surly level. They blocked the feeds long before the Safety Suite and probably quite a bit afterwards. Anyway, here goes the brief news:

• Christmas won the Safety Suite.
• She saved Ian as her Plus 1.
• Yes, Ian.
• No, I don't know why.
• But she did and I'm glad -- Ian was a likely choice for Memphis' nominations.
• Memphis said something to Christmas about her saving Ian "now" and Nicole F. saving him this morning.
• Apparently that was a reference to Have Not.
• Nicole F apparently stepped in and volunteered to take Ian's place as a Have Not.
• Hmm. 
• At least that connection I can see -- Ian and Nicole F are allies.
• But I have no idea his Christmas connection.
• Memphis is talking to everyone pre-nom.
• I believe, since Ian is off the table, it's likely to be David and Nicole A.
• Memphis doesn't seem to want to do a huge move.
• And, he seems to have a bit of a connection with Kaysar. He might think not getting him out could be better for his own game.
• I'll send out another brief update once the nomination news is in.

Dani girl, are the pipers calling?

Da'vonne is very in with Memphis

BB22: Live Feeds into Friday - August 14

 

Will he still be here after this week?

\

I guess without a live audience, the show being taped and not live isn't a huge deal. But it would have been nice had they mentioned it. What's been happening inside that Big Brother House of Loquacious Loons?

• I can't help but wonder what's going to happen when they have an endurance comp that goes over the hour time limit for the show. Will it air on the feeds? Will we have a forever feeds block? Hmm.
• At least they didn't make us East Coast people wait three hours before starting up the live feeds again!
• Ohhh ... more alcohol? Two days in a row? Now, if they combined both deliveries, it's still a paltry amount. Not that I'm a proponent of getting drunk, but even I am good for two beers. Each delivery only had six beers, yet so many hamsters.
• Our esteemed Have Nots for the week are: Nicole F, Kaysar, Christmas and David. I'm not sure how they were selected. We didn't see anyone volunteering and it's not the order of the first four out of the HoH comp. Maybe Memphis just arbitrarily assigned them. I dunno.
• Memphis got his HOH room and a basket of wrapped and sanitized goodies. His letter from his little boy was tearjerkingly sweet.
• In order to "prove" they're not working together, some of Memphis large alliance plan to compete for the Safety Suite. 
• Like that will mask that they're working together!
• Right now Memphis is talking of targeting Ian, Nicole A or David for eviction.
• Hmm. If that stays, it won't break my heart if David is evicted. Mind you, he's a nice enough guy. However, he never should have been cast in an All-Star season when he technically has never really played the game.
• I do NOT want either Ian or Nicole A gone.
• But, if those targets stay targets for nominations, that would mean Janelle and Kaysar live another week.
• Much of the rest of time before bedtime was them trying to figure out who is with whom.
• I think they need spreadsheets.
• Perhaps a PowerPoint guided display.
• Today should be the second of the three Safety Suite comps and nominations.

Go amuse yourself

Looking Travolta-esque?

I'm tired of every day being Christmas
