BB22: Live Feeds into Friday Evening, Nominations - Sept. 18

 

A Day/Kevin physical kerfuffle?


Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Failing Ferrets:
  • As you know from my last brief post -- Memphis won the HoH comp.
  • Cody and Christmas are the Have Nots. Cody is mad at Tyler because, when David was looking for a volunteer, Tyler yelled out "Not me, please." So, he chose Cody. Christmas is mad because Da'Vonne had the audacity to choose her. There is no third Have Not as Ian would have made the choice and (wah) he's gone.
  • On a side note: Internet rumors have it that Ian will be the new next door neighbor Julie mentioned at the end of last night's show. It would actually make sense to keep the jury under the "BB Bubble" pandemic-wise. We'll see. Then again, it could be Jesse. (Ick.)
  • There was an incident the other night as Memphis was complaining about David. A feeds cut, possibly due to the conversation on the other feeds, made seem like he MAY have called David a racial slur. I played it over and over again and I think he was actually calling him "an idiot" with the feeds cutting out at a real bad time. CBS has the complete version as well as enhancement tools. Memphis was cleared of saying the slur. 
  • I don't like Memphis. But I did think he was just calling David an idiot. Not nice, no. But not a racial slur.
  • Why do my fingers want to type racial slut? Oh noes! I may need help myself!
  • There was yet another incident with David and possibly Memphis after the comp and off feeds. David was talking with Enzo and Enzo mentioned David screaming and "running in." He asked if it was a slur. David mumbled something and the feeds cut. So, we are clueless.
  • Da'Vonne did refer to David as an "Uncle Tom" while talking to Kevin. The feeds didn't cut for that. Probably those with the feeds cut buttons don't know the term.
  • Nicole is walking around lying that she voted to save Ian.
  • So now Kevin and Da'Vonne think David is lying when he told them he voted to save Ian.
  • Stupid Nicole with her spool of lies!
  • Memphis made a deal with David that he won't put him on the block if he promises to not use the PoV if he plays and wins it.
  • They shook on it.
  • Hmm.
  • I don't think I trust either of them.
  • Christmas is sucking up to Memphis.
  • She thinks he's her final two. 
  • He also might be thinking of David as a final two.
  • Who knows?
  • According to the preseason pre-gaming rumors, Dan and Derrick would have Memphis and Cody battling it out for the win.
  • The night before last we had a long feeds block for their halfway party.
  • We had no block for Kevin's 41st birthday last night.
  • So, he's about three years older than Memphis?
  • Oy. Memphis is not aging well!
  • What a surprise ... Memphis nominated Da'Vonne and Kevin.

Safe once again


Cleared of suspected slur


EEK!


I'd itch if I was near that hair, too


Just call him Pawn Man

BB22: Live Feeds Bulletin - New HoH - Sept. 18

 



Well, the live feeds were blocked until past the end of the West Coast airing. This is beyond annoying.

Memphis won HoH. Cody and Christmas are the Have Nots. They are ticked off.

BB22: Live Eviction, HOH Comp Show Blog Party - Sept. 17

 



Tonight is a big night -- two fan favorites on the block, one will be the first member of the jury. Will it be Ian or Tyler going out the door? Yeah, I know many of the readers here would prefer it being Nicole ... or Memphis ... or Dani ... or Christmas ... or David ... the list goes on.

If you want to doublecheck on your blog pool pick by the esteemed SueGee, you can check on that news right at this here linked post.

I'll be updating this post with the major happenings as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page for the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area. Please join in on the fun!

C'mon Previously On ... let's get to the show!

Day 44, halfway to finale. Could the ultimate pawn be in for the ultimate blindside? Wah! I said the Wah, not Julie.

At least, if the diary segments are truthful, it won't be a ridiculous house vote once again. Of course, Nicole cries. Damn. SHE should be on the block! Ian has to console her? He tells us that he's leery but "no one ever made a dime panicking." He thinks if he can get four votes, Dani will break the tie in his favor. Sigh. Why does he trust Dani?

Da'Vonne tried to get Dani to understand why she saved Kevin. Dani tells us it was a bad move, but she will get Da'Vonne back in the fold. Meanwhile, Dani keeps lying to Ian and he keeps believing her. Dani says she just can't go against the Committee alliance. Well, she could have put Enzo up.

She is truthful when talking to Tyler. She tells us that she is over going after him and needs him in her game ... until she doesn't need him. Tyler thinks she's being honest about this vote, but doesn't trust her past it. 

Ian is going around campaigning. Right now he's talking to Memphis. Memphis is honest enough with him and says he thinks Ian is a powerful game player as is Tyler. Ian is coming to the realization that he isn't considered a pawn at all. Nicole, not crying, tells us she has to figure a way to save him. Yeah, right.

Sure, Julie ... focus on Nicole who is likely to betray a dear friend. Da'Vonne and Kevin figure out that Dani actually wants Tyler to stay. Nicole feels she has to check with the Committee before voting to keep Ian. Dani says no to it. We can expect Nicole to cry. Memphis laughs at her. Cody lays down all the times Tyler has worked to keep him THEM safe.

They're editing it like Nicole will vote to save Ian. So, she probably won't. Ian doesn't feel safe. And, he shouldn't. Ian tells her if she doesn't vote to keep him, he won't vote for her to win if it comes to that. He tries to guilt trip Dani, too. Hmm ... not the best strategy, Ian.

Nicole cries again. I wish they'd just get over this stuff and to the actual vote!

Finally ... to the living room.
Ian -- Frustrating, but rewarding, too. I have a lot to give. If I can help your game, leave me in.
Tyler - Infomercials and praises Ian, please keep me, BB changed my life, Angela, blah, blah. Don't be a clown, keep Tyler around.

The votes to evict:
Christmas - Ian
Enzo - Ian
To commercial ...
Da'Vonne - Tyler
Cody - Ian
Kevin - Tyler
Memphis - Ian
David - Tyler
Nicole - Cries, Ian

Five to three, Ian is out. Thanks, Nicole! You keep digging yourself a deeper hole with the fans. Despite all of his threats on the live feeds, he hugs all and leaves quietly.

Looking at the time and the fact they're in athletic clothes, the HoH comp will only start of the show. No mention of live feeds yet. Ian has yet to do his interview with Julie and we have ten minutes left of the show.

Ian was classy and dignified through the interview to the point in which Julie commented how impressed she is with him.

Time for the HoH comp -- Dani does not use her power. Hydrant Hustle. Across the yard, hydrant puzzle pieces, first right wins. Find out who wins on Sunday. It won't be on the live feeds but I will know the result and will post later tonight. Julie tells us next week a BB Legend moves into the house next door. Hmm.

BB22: Live Feeds into Wednesday Afternoon - Sept. 16

 

Playing with cool camera props


Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Blocking B-Words:
  • I took a rest from posting the live feeds yesterday. It's bad enough they rescheduled a television episode to air on my birthday.
  • Although I didn't post, I did watch the feeds on and off during the day and into the night.
  • Well, that is, I watched the crumbs left for us in between feeds blockages.
  • We are missing many strategy talks.
  • We are missing kerfuffles.
  • We are missing rather minor brouhahas.
  • We are missing them talking about what happened that we missed.
  • I guess the person on the switch was napping when we got the Christmas/Bayleigh/Da'Vonne brouhaha.
  • We haven't seen one since.
  • Last night there apparently were blow-ups between David and Ian and Ian and Dani.
  • But did we see them?
  • Nope.
  • Heck, BB gave them almost a glass of wine each last night, then cut the feeds.
  • I'm beginning to wonder if this isn't the beginning of the end of the live feeds or of the show itself.
  • Anyway ... Ian is getting on the nerves of everyone. That is not good for him.
  • He had long talks about his growing up issues with handling failures poorly and being a poor sportsman. It sounds like he has really had some traumatic times over losing. He thinks he's worked on it and has made progress.
  • Yet, we did see he has anger issues when he thinks he's losing.
  • Sigh.
  • While I do think Dani does indeed feel terrible about nominating him, she did it. She needs to own it.
  • While I like Tyler, before the Ian nom, Tyler would definitely go after her and Ian not so much. She realized beforehand that if Ian was on the block with Tyler, it would probably be Tyler staying. This was AFTER she made it clear that Tyler was her target.
  • Silly mean girl.
  • Ian is going around trying to get people to shake on voting to keep him.
  • David kept pushing and pushing him getting Ian to the point of anger.
  • Then David went around saying his intent was to make Ian mad.
  • Dang. Ian would be better off out of this toxic house!
  • Of course, Nicole cried.
  • We knew she would.
  • Enzo seems legitimately torn between Tyler and Ian. I think he seems to have a soft spot for Ian but knows it's a lost cause with the others in the house.
  • Ian thinks he has enough support to force Dani to break a tie.
  • I don't think he has.
  • And, if he has, would she break it in his favor?
  • Probably for her game's sake, no.
  • She really should have put Christmas or Memphis up against Tyler. She claimed that Tyler was her target so she put up someone with almost no allies with him.
  • Shame on her.
You reap what you sow


She's proud of her head contraption


Ian is being duped by them


Yes, he is indeed expendable


Guaranteed to target Dani


Enzo really likes Ian ... hmm ...

BB22: Power of Veto Blog Party - Sept. 15

 



Good evening! I hope most folks realize that the show is on tonight rather than its usual Wednesday night slot. If not, may they enjoy country music tomorrow night!

I'll 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 section -- please join in on the fun!

Previously on and all that comes with it ...

Okay, we're to the point when Dani nominated David and Kevin. Let's get to it!

Dani tells us of the two, she would prefer David go home. If one is saved with the veto, she MIGHT go after Tyler. He isn't feeling safe. David tells us he will be using his power.

Oh, yes! I forgot from last year -- David is the one who can fake cry real tears! He goes into his act and cries first to Da'Vonne. Cody and Memphis don't want Tyler to go up as any kind of replacement, neither does Enzo who thinks of Tyler as a shield. They know Dani wants to get Tyler out.

A female heckling voice pipes through the house calling them all to the dining room: "The Disruptor Power has been unleashed!" It's followed with an evil laugh.

David is saved and pretends he wasn't expecting it. Dani must name a renom immediately and puts Tyler on the block. Poor Dani. Heh. She's freaking out. Kevin is upset because he thinks Tyler will win veto.

Dani thinks she needs to convince Tyler she wants him to stay and put him up in a moment of panic. Tyler tells us he's not buying it. She thinks he can win the veto. Tyler brings up that Kevin might win the veto and then who will she replace him with?

David (foolishly) goes around the house to see who saved him. That makes no sense as you know that they all know he would be the only one to save himself. They are not fooled. I don't know why he's doing it. Da'Vonne tells us he's just being weird.

Christmas is Dani's chosen pawn if someone comes off the block. Christmas isn't happy as she too is in the alliance.

Nicole shunned her Slopitard.

Veto picks -- Dani got Da'Vonne, Tyler got Ian and Kevin got Enzo.

Dani tells Da'Vonne to please win the comp as she wants the nominations to stay the same. 

Veto comp -- Microbrews -- they have to take a teletransporter . The veto comp is being held in the living room. How odd is that?

They have to stack 15 microbrews into a pyramid using giant tweezers. The microbrews are tiny. The rest of the hamsters are watching them on the screen in the HoH room and Nicole is hosting.

DA'VONNE WINS THE POWER OF VETO! Her first win!

Dani hopes Day will keep her promise. Kevin hopes she will use it to save him. Tyler thinks he needs to rethink his strategy. Day tells us she promised Dani only because she's never won a comp and didn't think she'd win.

Kevin and Da'vonne talk. Should she save him with the veto? They are close. She goes to talk to Dani and tells her she's thinking of using the veto on Kevin because there's a "big ass" alliance in the house and she's not a part of it.

Dani goes to Christmas trying to decide what to do if the veto is used. Christmas says her only options are Ian or Enzo. She just cannot put up another member of the Committee alliance. Woe is her.

Dani tells Cody that her only option is Ian. She tells him that she wants Tyler out. He doesn't. 

She tells Nicole about Ian being the only option -- everyone else would be unhappy with her. Nicole, of course, has her own alliance with Ian and doesn't want him to go home. Or, actually to jury now.

Dani tries to put pressure on Day to not save Kevin. After all, she can do more for Day in the game than Kevin can. Also, showing her closeness with Kevin will be a detriment to her game. Sheesh.

Time for the veto meeting. Da'Vonne uses the veto to save Kevin. Dani, reluctantly, puts Ian up in his place. She tells them she needs the 'ultimate pawn" and she wants Tyler to go home this week. So, it's Ian and Tyler on the block.
