BB22: Live Feeds into Friday Afternoon - August 28

What up, Kaysar!

Who will they have to vilify now that Janelle is gone? Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Meddlesome Mice:
  • As you know from my late night post, Enzo is the new HoH.
  • Apparently there was a big ordeal determining the winner and they had to examine and reexamine frame by frame as it was so close between Enzo and Cody.
  • The live feeds were blocked for about three and a half hours after the live show and blocked once again for the HOH reveal, letter from home reading and such.
  • Way too much feed blockage this season! Stop that, BB.
  • The second I heard Enzo won, I knew Kaysar was doomed.
  • Of course, if just about anyone won, he'd be doomed, but ...!
  • Sure enough, while Enzo is making a point to talk to everyone and claims he has yet to make up his mind, he's made up his mind.
  • He told Cody that he plans to nominate Kaysar and a pawn. If one comes down with the veto, Ian goes up.
  • Sure, target two hamsters I like! Grr.
  • Enzo told Cody that he and Tyler would definitely be safe.
  • So, the alpha male reign continues.
  • Enzo is also asking people about the hinky votes when he talks to them. @@
  • It seems that neither Dani nor Enzo know it was both of them.
  • Yet they're both being a bit too obvious prying and making a big deal of the votes.
  • David continues to be absolutely clueless and useless. Who decided to put him in a show with seasoned hamsters?
  • Unless Kaysar can win either veto or HoH every week from now on, he'll be out the door.
  • Sigh.
  • Christmas still has all her star babies. I think it's 13 of them even though they didn't show that many on the segment the show did about them. They all have BB-related names like Veto, Twist, Backdoor and such.
  • Enzo and Cody seem to know that Dani is a snake but think it's too early to get her out.
  • I'm seriously dismayed with this season. Unless there's some kind of shake-up, it will be dominated by the white alpha males and very predictable.
  • I'll let you know the nominations when I know them. Maybe the pawn will be David, Maybe the hamsters will get a spine and not vote with the house.
  • Maybe I need a drink ...

 

What the hell is with that hair?

My pool boy will be safe this week


Play it smart, Bayleigh


And then there's that hair. Oy.

One big happy family


He had more personality as a mixologist

BB22: Live Feeds - HoH Winner - August 27

 


I was right that since they didn't push the live feeds for the comp, we would be blocked. So, it was adoptable animals until they felt we can watch once again. They are apparently waiting for the West Coast show to end. It didn't begin until past 11:30 EDT.

Enzo is the new HoH.

BB22: Live Eviction, HOH Show Blog Party - August 27

 



Good evening! I hope you're all safe from the storm as well as the virus! I also want to take a moment to thank those folks out there who have made donations to the blog. I've been having a few difficulties with the email account linked to the Paypal site and haven't been able to send out thank you notes. However, your donations are noted and greatly appreciated! 

Tonight looks like it will be the first actual live eviction show of the season. Will it be followed up by an endurance HOH comp? Hmm. If so, I'll post a separate entry to follow it on the live feeds -- if they air it on the feeds, that is. I should make mention that I'm expecting storms here this evening. We're under a severe thunderstorm warning, flash flood warnings and a tornado watch. So, if I vanish, I've lost power. Carry on!

Sadly, we will lose either Janelle or Kaysar tonight. Life just isn't fair! Although not b=my blog pool person, I am saddened at the thought of losing either of them. For the latest blog pool standings, check them out on this linked post.

I will be updating this entry with the major happenings as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area -- please join in on the fun!

Julie dressed up more this week, as is appropriate for the evening.

Sitting through Previously On ...

But first ... Janelle didn't earn the title of legend for nothing. We get told what a threat she is. She tells us that although Kaysar is her ride or die, she needs to fight to stay. Kaysar has never outlasted her on the block. Tyler is having second thoughts, much too late.

Bayleigh wants Janelle to stay, but doesn't want to go against the Slick Six alliance. She tells them it would mean another woman out. Da'Vonne also speaks up for Janelle to stay. But neither will make waves on their own.

Kaysar tells us he's heard it will be Janelle leaving. He would never campaign against her, but now feels the need to speak up for himself. Janelle is campaigning for votes -- she needs a total of six people on her side. Dani really wants her out. She has to win over Cody, thus Enzo.

Segment on David and his big mouth. He's walking around saying that Da'Vonne tried to flip the house against the Nicole/David vote. Da'Vonne is indignant -- she had trusted David and now David shows that he didn't trust her. It ripples through the house. Tyler is now feeling betrayed by David because David told Da'Vonne he is the one who told him. Tyler tells him that he blew up his game and now he (Tyler) will be the target next week.

With the editing so focused on them coming up with reasons to possibly keep Janelle, I can only think Janelle will be evicted/

To the living room. Julie talks to them.

Janelle - Coolest group, love you. If I can benefit your game, keep me

Kaysar - Enjoyed being here, personal level like you a lot, cane to play the game and hope to do that.

The live votes to evict:

Dani - KAYSAR

Nicole - Janelle

Enzo - Kaysar

To commercial ...

Da'Vonne - Janelle

Memphis - Janelle

Bayleigh - Janelle

Cody - Janelle

Christmas - Janelle

David - Janelle

Kevin - Janelle

Ian - Janelle

Sorry about the double spacing. Blame Blogger! Janelle is evicted. Sigh. She hugs them all except Nicole although she didn't seem too thrilled with Kevin!

The interview went well. Janelle was upbeat while Julie shed her ChenBot for JanelleFangirl. Hopefully it will be online somewhere if you missed it.

HOH Comp - Carnival Workshop, two groups of six. Nicole, Day, David, Ian, Enzo, Kaysar ... roll balls up a ramp three balls in target rotating rounds. I don't know if it will be shown on the feeds. They haven't said. 

Next week is also a live show.

I will go to the live feeds, but I'm not optimistic that they'll be airing the comp. If nothing else, I'll let you know the winner when it's known.

BB22: Power of Veto Show Blog Party - August 26

 


Good evening! I hope everyone is safe and well! Are you ready for the third All-Stars Power of Veto comp of the season? No? Um. Well. Tough. Go rustle up some adult beverages and snacks and get back to us. 

 I'll be updating this entry with the major events as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh this page to get the latest news. As always, the real party is in the comments area. Come join in on the fun!

Previously on and blah blah blah ...

I don't like the expression "my/our name(s) in their mouths." Just say they were talking about you. Otherwise I'll be picturing spitting up alphabet soup!

We pick up the action after nominations. Tyler tells us that Janelle and Kayser are the two biggest threats in the house. Well. Yeah. Probably.

Kayser tells us he's been on the block four times with Janelle in three seasons. He's never been on the block without Janelle.

So, we get into why each person absolutely needs to win the veto. Tyler feels content. Da'Vonne wants to talk him up so that her own place is secure and she's not going to be the next target. She asks Tyler who he would put up in either nominee is saved with the veto. She better cool it or it might be her!

Da'Vonne also talks up with Kaysar and Janelle. Now, I don't think they have all that much faith in her. But they'll take what they can get at this point as it seems the majority of the house is against them. Bayleigh has a better chance of getting in with them.

Dani and Nicole talk. Dani's strategy is to plant seeds all over the house. Yep. she's totally in it for herself this early in the game. She's willing to play anyone but not so willing to get played. Nicole, on the other hand, is very insecure. Yeah, can you imagine that?

We get a Janelle beauty program segment. Ian isn't into it.

Veto player picking time! Tyler randomly draws Cody. Kaysar draws Bayleigh. Janelle draws Memphis.

Dani pressures Bayleigh about not using the veto if she wins it. Meanwhile, Bayleigh tells us she'll make up her own mind. Kaysar and Janelle talk -- they're not too thrilled with the veto players except for Bayleigh.

Veto comp time! Cupcake trucks it is the Cupcake Class Championship. It's a head to head comp arrange cupcake puzzles.

Kaysar against Tyler
Cody against Bayleigh
Memphis against Janelle

Winners of the first round go on. Tyler wins round one, Kaysar out. Cody goes on, Bayleigh out. It's obvious to the others that Memphis is throwing the comp although he doesn't admit it. Memphis goes on, Janelle out.

Memphis and Cody have to square off as Tyler had the best previous time.  Cody wins so it's Cody versus Tyler. Cody wins the Power of Veto!

Although Memphis is a bit partial to Janelle, he's glad his alliance won the comp.  That way he's not put on the spot. However, Dani and Nicole have a bug in their bonnets thinking he was trying to throw it.

Aw, we get a touching Janelle and Kaysar segment. They both want to stay and are trying to think of a deal they could make to stay.

Enzo brings up the Memphis throwing the comp to Tyler. Now, Tyler, who didn't really trust him before, trusts Memphis less. Ohh ... editing cue that Memphis could be backdoored? Hmm.

Ah, I was just thinking that we haven't seen Christmas this episode. Now we see her. As the Plus One in the Safety Suite, she gets to mother a baby star pillow as if it's a real baby. BB gives all the cues. The baby star is demanding around the clock. Another baby is born, so she's up to two. And yet another and another. She gets ten total.

Janelle is pitching her campaign to Cody to use the veto on her. She will vote with him the next two weeks and work with him. Will Cody consider it?

Time for the veto meeting. Nope, nuh-uh. Cody, despite being interrupted by star babies, does not use the veto. Janelle and Kaysar remain on the block.





BB22: Live Feeds into Wednesday - August 26

 

Janelle will always be a BB legend

Yes, I skipped posting yesterday. To be honest, there wasn't that much happening in the house as far as new and exciting. There was no breaking news. For those who know me, I do have some health issues and they've been kicking in as of late. Plus, I anticipate an endurance comp tomorrow night and should reserve my strength and energy. How else will I win it? Oh, wait. I'm not in any of the comps. But anyway ...

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

  • Janelle is trying to campaign to stay. Kaysar is fine with that. She is not campaigning against him; she's just campaigning her own merits.
  • Both Kaysar and Janelle realize that the immediate target this week is her, with him probably being next.
  • They feel there are more worthy targets -- Nicole because all she does is whine and hang onto people, Kevin because he instigates and whines, Dani because she lies and instigates. 
  • Right now Dani is concentrating on Janelle in her lies and instigations. She knows Janelle would be loyal to her. So, once Janelle is gone ... what friend will she target next?
  • Then there's David. He still is not getting the grasp of the game.
  • He never should have been cast in this season.
  • Bayleigh and Da'Vonne had an interesting talk about David. On the live show, viewers got a little insight into the complexities of being Black even among Black folks when Da'Vonne talked about the darkness of her skin causing her to be taunted, etc. 
  • The talk concerning David had to do with upbringing. Y'see, some tried to get David together with Da'Vonne as they are both single. David is not meshing with her at all. Bayleigh thinks it's because David was brought up in a mostly white suburb of Atlanta and is "preppie." She thinks that Da'Vonne, brought up in a more urban and Black-populated area, may come across as intimidating to David. Bayleigh herself was brought up in a suburban environment and thinks David thinks of her as a Black white girl. She thinks it might be her voice.
  • I say it's not her voice. Sorry, Bayleigh ... but no one of any race, color or creed should have that voice. It's like chalk on a chalkboard. Someone done did you wrong there!
  • Now, I am white. But I live in a predominantly Black city. I actually totally understand what Bayleigh is saying -- I see things like that happening here. Being Black is much more complicated than many white people think!
  • Christmas is still talking too much but saying little of any consequence game-wise. She thinks she's in with everybody. But nobody really wants her for anything other than a number.
  • Enzo is having problems being a Have Not. He ate mostly catsup yesterday.
  • That saud, I think Enzo is playing much better than I thought he would. At least, so far. He's won two comps and basically gets along with everybody in the house.
  • One interesting point to ponder -- Janelle previously said on the live feeds that production told her she wouldn't be going home until mid-September at the earliest. Yet, both Keesha and Nicole have not been sequestered and are home (or at least free of BB). Hmm.
  • Oh, well. It still looks like most of the house consider Janelle the bigger threat and she will be evicted.
  • I guess we'll see.

Kaysar is always so intriguing!

While Kevin is so annoying!


I'd like to see Ian stay in it a long time


They can go sooner rather than later
