BB22: Live Feeds into Friday Afternoon - Sept. 4

 

I prefer the fish

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Sinking Ships:
  • Once again the live feeds were blocked for hours after the live show ended here on the East Coast.
  • Since they returned a bit after midnight here, I can only assume they decided to leave them down until after the show aired on the West Coast.
  • You think they'd realize show fans on the West Coast watching the live feeds are aware of the internet and already know the outcome. Knock it off, BB. The feeds are down too much this season!
  • I still prefer the adoptable animals over that one year they kept doing loops of BB Trivia. But still ...!
  • While I'm on blocked feeds, I don't like the stars. I guess the fish are out because outside people often have to enter for maintenance of the tank. I loved the old old days of FOTH -- front of the house. Every now and then we'd see yard guy watering the plants! Chicken Coop Cam on BB1 was cool.
  • But I digress. However, how do you like sitting here forever with no actual show happenings? See!
  • It's all a mess.
  • It sounds like Christmas wants to put Bayleigh and Da'Vonne on the block even though no one except Nicole really trusts Dani.
  • I can just see Twitter now if she makes that move. I'm not saying anyone should be kept in the house because they're Black. But when you know all of what's happening in the world as I'm sure Christmas is aware, it's social media suicide to nominate the two for eviction. Why single out both women? Hmm.
  • When the feeds first returned, Nicole was all in tears.
  • Not an unusual state for her, mind you. Carry on.
  • Cody wasn't in tears for sure. But he is so angry that, in the Kaysar speech, his name was there so much and with so many. Of course, Nicole's name was there, too. And, they were tied together by the wall shouter the other day.
  • Ian is upset that all will be coming back to him.
  • Kevin is confused.
  • David is oblivious and not a part of anything really going on in the house.
  • Enzo wants to stay out of the drama. "Yo, save that drama fo' yo mama!"
  • Okay, he didn't say that. I made that up. But I think it's something he just might say!
  • BB blocked the HoH room reveal once again.
  • BB got them up at 8am their time.
  • Then we ended up with several hours of blocked feeds again as they did the BB Basement comp.
  • From what they're saying, it was dark and goopy. No one is admitting to winning any powers.
  • It can't be Bayleigh as she locked herself in the bathroom stall with Da'Vonne and had an emotional breakdown.
  • The others know she's breaking down. So now there's talk of she needs to go home for her sanity and can't handle the stress.
  • Enzo and Dani were both talking about the stress and drama.
  • Ian said it's too much.
  • Tyler told Dani that Ian almost went to the Diary Room to DOR (self-evict) after Bayleigh lit into him.
  • After the Basement, Mean Girl Dani was in tears and didn't know why she was dragged.
  • Um, well. Seeds. That's all I can say.
  • But Dani did win a power. Yet she cries and complains about it. She told Nicole she has the power to allow the HoH compete in the next HoH comp instead of sitting it out. It's good for three weeks.
  • Heehee. 
  • Oh my. I know I've been complaining about how boring they are. But I don't want them all crying and upset! 
  • I just want a brouhaha or even just a kerfuffle, not psychological scars which may never heal.
  • Nominations should be later tonight.
  • ADDED: Christmas also won a power called the Blocker. It's good for three weeks. It can block the someone from being nominated as a renom. She has to enact it prior to the veto. 

Can we all go home now?


Does he have a power?


I can never understand her hair


Bayleigh and her game breaking down


Sequins? Really?


She needs to go, but won't

BB22: Live Eviction, HoH Show Blog Party - Sept. 3

 


Out of four evictions, this is our second live show eviction. I can only hope the live feeds aren't blocked here for hours and hours like they were last week! It's bad enough that every day this week there have been extremely lengthy live feeds blocks. On the plus side of that, they're more boring than most casts anyway. So, no great loss.

If you want to see where you stand in the blog pool, you can see the latest pool standings at this post linked right here.

I will be updating this post 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 feel free to join in on the fun!

So ... who will be going home -- Kaysar or Christmas?

Julie tells us anything can happen on eviction night. Yeah, right. Then we're into the Previously On. Ohhh ... a new room in the BB house will be revealed tonight!

"Be careful where you plant seeds of doubt," Julie says.

Kaysar knows they want him out, especially since the renom is Christmas. He mistakenly talks to Memphis about the alliance. Not a good move since Memphis is a big part of the alliance.

Enzo has caught onto Dani, but doesn't do anything about it. Cody tells Enzo about an alliance in which he's not a part. Tyler is also on the Caught Onto Dani Train. He wants to be the one to end the madness she's spreading through the house. He talks to Bayleigh about it. Now, Bayleigh is supposed to be in an alliance with Bay! Then he talks to Da'Vonne, as well.

Of course, none of this scheming will do anything to help either of the nominees on the block tonight!

Julie gives us a teaser about the newest twist -- the BB Basement -- and into commercial.

Ian talks to Kevin and tries to lay out the alliances. Ian knows he can't really count on Nicole. Kevin is happy that Ian is telling him the lowdown. Then he talks to Bayleigh. Ian is rockin' that hammock! He tells Kevin they can use Kaysar to blow things up because Kaysar has nothing to lose. So, he approaches Kaysar. Kaysar seems to be pondering it.

To the living room. 

Christmas - Thanks, vote the HoH way, makes weird Christmas poem

Kaysar - Love on personal level, gameplay and strategy suck ... blows up the alliances! Yay!

The votes to evict: (forgive the weird spacing)

Cody - Kaysar

Memphis - Kaysar

Dani - Kaysar

Ian - Kaysar

Kevin - Kaysar

Da'Vonne - Kaysar

David - Kaysar

Bayleigh - Kaysar

Nicole - Kaysar

Tyler - Kaysar

So, yet another sheeple unanimous vote to evict Kaysar.

His talk with Julie is cordial. He tells her the reason he came back was to try to convince people there's a better way for the world.

HoH comp time. Backyard. Julie tells them there are no Have Nots this week. Filter Faceoff. Two at a time, podium, will see images, answer. The winner of each two will choose the next two. More, exactly, less

Ian/Kevin - Ian out

Nicole/Cody - Nicole out

Kevin/Da'Vonne - Kevin out

Cody/Memphis - Cody out

Dani/David - David out

Bayleigh/Da'Vonne - Bayleigh out

Dani/Memphis - Dani out

Tyler/Da'Vonne - Tyler out

Christmas/Memphis - Memphis out

Da'Vonne/Christmas - Da'Vonne out

CHRISTMAS IS THE NEW HOH! (Where was this comp around when she was being carried through with a broken foot on her season?)

BB Basement - comp played completely in the dark will grant three new game-changing powers.

BB22: Power of Veto Show Blog Party - Sept. 2

 


So, here we are at the very important Power of Veto show. I think I can speak for just about everyone reading this that we would love to see a Kaysar win. I doubt anyone else winning it would save him. But, will it go down that way?

I'll be updating this post 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 us for all the fun!

Previously on and on ...

Ah, endurance is the veto comp this time instead of an HOH one.

We pick up after the noms. Enzo makes it clear that the target is Kaysar and Kevin is just a pawn. Of course, sometimes pawns go home. So, Kevin is really upset. He thought he was in good with Enzo. Enzo tells him he's good with everybody and no one is targeting him doesn't make Kevin feel much better at all.

Nicole tells us anything can happen. What I wish would happen is unlikely -- a backdoor of Nicole. Heehee!

Kaysar talks to Enzo, telling him he would work with him, not come after him, if he stays. Enzo is kind enough to him but tells him it wouldn't be happening. Meanwhile David is feeling all alone, he's lost trust with the others. Heck, he's just lost and shouldn't even be on the show if you ask me! Bayleigh tells us David is rubbing too many people wrong in the game, almost blowing up alliances and such. She says he needs to tone it down.

Ian tries to game talk with Enzo as that was supposedly the reason for the nominations. He tells him that if he (Ian) wins POV, he will do whatever Enzo wants. Alas, Enzo sees through the ploy as he tells us. He had brought up Ian's name as a replacement nom when talking to his alliance.

David explains how BB works with them not knowing the outside world. They get to play a game about outside news with Memphis doing a Mornings with Memphis Show. I daresay I prefer Dick at Night or his old morning talks with the live feeders.

Kevin thinks he might pick David as houseguest choice if he gets that chip. He wants David to save him and neither have anyone to work with.

Veto player pick time! Enzo randomly draws Tyler. Kaysar gets Bayleigh. Kevin draws HG choice ... yep, David.

Kaysar wants to make sure Bayleigh will save him if she wins the veto. After all, she was close to Janelle. But Bayleigh might have other thoughts as she needs to do what's best for her own game and saving him might blow an alliance. She tells us that she probably would not save him if she won.

Enzo, Cody and Tyler are worried David might save Kevin if he wins the veto. Tyler  tells us only Cody and himself have won anything so they should win this one. Hmm. It seems to me that both Kevin and Kaysar have each won something. Maybe I'm wrong on Kevin. But Kaysar won a Safety Suite.

Veto comp time -- BB Theater, puppetmaster. Hold onto the puppet strings for dear life as pulled in all directions. They're getting doused with goop as they're suspended on the moving "strings." Sigh. Kaysar is out first. Enzo out. Tyler out. Bayleigh down. David down on his own merit even though Kevin told him he has his back if he drops. KEVIN WINS THE POWER OF VETO!

Kaysar points out to us that, since Kevin was an obvious pawn, this might be good for him -- a ray of hope? Enzo is worried about who to put up since he really wants Kaysar gone. Would Ian be an issue? Would they vote him out instead of Kaysar? He actually wants another definite pawn.

Christmas says she will go up as a pawn. She's a bit worried it would make her look expendable but it would solidify Enzo's trust in working with her. Dani thinks the Slick Six need to discuss their options. She invites Tyler who is in a room with Nicole who's not in the Six. Tyler is ticked about it. She basically outed the alliance. He tells Enzo about Dani blowing it. Tyler suggest backdooring Dani, but that would mean Kaysar would stay.

Time for the veto meeting. Sure enough (and wisely), Kevin saves himself. Enzo goes the safe route and puts up Christmas in his place. He talks of securing against the "house target." That must make Kaysar feel so good. 

So, tomorrow night it will be Kaysar or Christmas being evicted.

BB22: Live Feeds into Tuesday Evening - Sept. 1

 

Christmas stuffs her star babies in a trash bag


Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Loquacious Louts:

  • Strategy talks perked up a bit today, thanks to Ian.
  • Yesterday I think it was Cody and Enzo talking about how Ian conveniently leaves something in each room to give him an excuse to go in while people are talking.
  • Well, yeah. Probably.
  • Plus Ian is very observant.
  • He's got the major alliances, minor alliances and side alliances pretty much down pat with the exception of not knowing where Dani and Tyler stand.
  • He was also in the yard and heard the fence shouter shout about Cody and Nicole playing everyone.
  • Because he knows the alliances take up just about everyone except himself, Kevin and Kaysar ... and David to a lesser useless extent, he really can't confide in many.
  • He went to Kevin, hoping Kevin will work with him since he's at the most on the fringes with the alliances.
  • Now, I do worry about that because Kevin's gameplay is usually to float back and forth with the power of the week.
  • But Ian knows that he himself has little to lose as he's a previous winner of the game and not really in any alliance with anyone other than Nicole (as the other previous winner) and he really doesn't seem to trust her or want to test the strength of the alliance with any sort of strategy.
  • So, he confided in Kevin.
  • He later hinted at things with Kaysar and Kaysar convinced him to spill the alliance beans.
  • They're trying to figure a way to flip the vote using the intel, but it looks rather bleak.
  • In other news, Christmas officially turned in all of her star babies today. She kissed each one while wishing a quick "g'bye" and shoved them into a large trash bag.
  • Oh my.
  • You'd think that would be some kind of crime!

More muscles than many of the guys


Can he work with Ian without tattling?


Still doubtful he'll stay


A hammocking Ian is a happy Ian

BB22: Live Feeds into Monday Afternoon, PoV Meeting - August 31

 

So not under the radar now


Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Petty Possums:

  • Last night as many of the hamsters were hanging out in the yard, there was a wall shouter.
  • Yep! It's been a while. There were chronic issues with wall shouters and even the Megaphone Lady (Miss Kitty?) back in the day.
  • This latest shouter was loud and clear and shouted it twice: "Nicole and Cody are playing everyone."
  • Heh.
  • No, it wasn't me.
  • But you know if we could make it out on the live feeds, so could the hamsters.
  • The feeds shut right down and they/us lost the yard for the rest of the night. The feeds block was much longer than needed, I say.
  • Remember the year someone was throwing candy over the back fence? Heehee!
  • Shouters are more likely to get through more so than banner planes. Usually planes are spotted long before they can be seen from the yard. The shouters can sneak up.
  • Although they were obviously told not to discuss the shouter, Cody said a few times during the rest of the evening his game is ruined now.
  • Poor Cody.
  • Enzo's talks with people continued as he is to make his decision on a renom.
  • Well, unless Kevin doesn't use the veto, that is!
  • Bwahahahaha ... i crack myself up.
  • Enzo's main scheming partner seems to be Tyler rather than Cody. Hmm.
  • Enough people have exposed Dani's seed planting that she's jumped smackdab into the radar.
  • Enzo doesn't want to make any big moves, though.
  • He really wants Kaysar out. If he puts up the easy move of David, it might just backfire and Kaysar might stay. If he does his original plan of Ian, same thing as Ian is perceived as a dangerous player.
  • Aha! Earlier, pre-veto comp, Christmas had volunteered to be a pawn. Maybe it was even before nominations? Doesn't matter. She did volunteer.
  • And, now ... there she is!
  • Yep, Kevin saved himself and put Christmas up against Kaysar.
  • The house is just about all against Kaysar, if not all.
  • I see another house vote looming.
  • Sigh.


Off the hook this week


No one really is with him in the house


Kaysar tries to mix and mingle


Yo, yo, yo


You get what you volunteered for ...


We've already lost three girls!
