BB22: Maybe Nominations Show Blog Party, Maybe Not - Oct. 5

 



Like so many things about this season (and year) this too is messed up. In its infinite wisdom, BB changed the Sunday night show to Monday to avoid football delays on Sundays. Well, duh. It seems the NFL decided to air football on Monday nights on CBS, starting way later than they start the Sunday games. So, BB was SUPPOSED to air at 8PM Eastern. Now I see it scheduled for 10PM in this area. It's doubtful it will be that early at all here. 

I have this post set to go up at 10PM ET. Right now I honestly don't know when the show will air here or if I'll be up to live blogging it at some ridiculously late hour. But, everyone is free to party in the comments area. Please behave.

Okay, I turned my TV on a few minutes before 10 and BB is on? A repeat because David just went home? I'm so lost.

I will not be updating this entry because, so far, it all seems like the end of the Triple from Thursday. 

Okay ... something new. BB Yoga Studio for the the HoH comp. Namastay off the Block. Keeping three buttons pressed while undressed (not to the naked point). Each button release will make the clock go faster.

I guess I'm updating this.

Christmas out in the first round. Nicole out in the second round. Enzo out in the third round.  CODY WINS HOH!

Both Christmas and Tyler are worried because they were the two who voted to oust Nicole while the plan had been David.

Cody wants to target Christmas. Enzo is fine with that. However, Memphis wants Tyler targeted.

Surprise, surprise ... Cody nominates Tyler and Christmas.

BB22: Live Feeds into Monday - Oct. 5

 

Pretty inside and out ... um ...


Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Inexplicable Live Feeds Blocks:
  • Yeah, I'm getting pretty disgusted with all the live feeds blocking this season.
  • Heck, they get a booze delivery and take the feeds down for two hours.
  • It's ridiculous.
  • And now they're even messing with the aired television episodes. Due to football delays on Sundays, they changed the veto show to Monday nights.
  • Um.
  • There's football scheduled tonight on CBS. 
  • The local listings have BB scheduled for 10pm tonight. That's IF football has ended by then.
  • I'll put a post up for the show, but don't know if I will live blog it really late at night. Grr.
  • Okay, back to the live feeds.
  • Nicole is setting herself up well for pretty much the only kind of comp she can win -- questions.
  • She's been studying alone using the backgammon board and knows the days and comps inside out and upside down.
  • As for the nominees -- Christmas and Tyler -- unless you see an update from me stating otherwise, they're still on the block.
  • I'm sure Cody will not be using the veto to change his own nominations.
  • However, he has indeed let Memphis get in his head.
  • Cody's original target was Christmas.
  • He thought he would have both Enzo and Nicole on board to evict her.
  • Now Memphis has been turning the target to Tyler with Enzo.
  • Enzo will go along with whomever as long as it's not him. He might actually like Tyler better than he does Christmas. But if taking Tyler out is better for his own game, that's what he'll do.
  • Nicole has good reason to target Christmas -- she promised Dani revenge. But it looks like she too might be swayed to vote out Tyler.
  • I personally like Tyler, but do think that it would be more dangerous letting him stay until the end while they have the chance to evict him now.
  • He's good at comps and he gets along well with others.
  • Then you have Christmas. While she's won a few comps, she's often rubbed others a bit wrong.
  • Most of the others would rather sit next to a Christmas in a final two than a Tyler.
  • I guess I don't blame them.

BB22: Live Feeds into Saturday Evening, PoV - Oct. 3

 
I am NOT stupid!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Miserable Mice:
  • I know. I know. 
  • I didn't post separately Cody's nominations.
  • But I did say what he was going to do in my last update.
  • And, that's exactly what he did.
  • Someone in comments mentioned the nominees.
  • Oh.
  • You still don't know.
  • Tyler and Christmas.
  • Cody's target is Christmas.
  • But we're getting in the days when they all aren't necessarily going to be sheep to the HOH's whims.
  • Memphis has a good relationship with Christmas.
  • Well, as good a relationship as he can have because he's so Memphis-like.
  • Nicole, on the other hand, has vowed to get rid of Christmas for her buddy Dani and for reasons of her own.
  • So, the swing vote would be Enzo.
  • It seems like he'll want to keep his buddy Tyler in the game.
  • But it's to the point where friendship doesn't trump game.
  • Sorry to use that word, but it fits with what I want to say.
  • The feeds have been rather um ... tedious. The camera people at the switch are too quick to block even rather innocuous conversations. It would seem to me that talking about previous hamsters and previous seasons would be allowed. Nope! Stars!
  • I really liked the fish better.
  • Or ,,, that one season with the tarantulas was cool!
  • Watching them play backgammon is worse that watching them play chess.
  • With the crew in there no, there is no chance of any stimulating intellectual discussions.
  • Oh, well.
  • All of the hamsters play in the veto.
  • And, once I know who won -- the feeds are blocked as I'm typing this up -- I'll tell you the winner and zap this update up!
  • CODY won the Power of Veto.


How much longer can she be carried?


Bored cameramen


Worse than watching chess


Do not disturb


Mind you, South Jersey is ... different


Needs to win and win and win

BB22: Live Feeds into Friday, New HoH - Oct. 2

 

Perhaps more attention to her hair?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Revolving HoH:
  • The feeds were once again off until the West Coast show ended last night.
  • When they first came back it didn't seem like the HoH comp had been played in their absence.
  • But indeed they had.
  • I don't know the comp.
  • But we do know the winner.
  • Cody is once again the HoH.
  • Why doesn't that surprise me?
  • Enzo, the last standing Have Not, chose Nicole to be a Have Not.
  • She fussed so much not about the slop or cold showers, but having to sleep alone, that people volunteered to stay with her each night. @@
  • She will be the last Have Not of the season.
  • Tyler and Memphis got their HoH short reign baskets from inside the storage room without lots of fanfare.
  • Cody got the room, but as per this season's normal blockage, we didn't see it on the live feeds until after the reveal.
  • But they haven't been showing it on the shows this season, either.
  • Things are weird, but it is 2020.
  • Enzo and Cody talked. They pondered whether to put Nicole up or not, saying that she's "fragile."
  • Hmm.
  • Both want Christmas out but are worried that Memphis might save her if he wins the veto.
  • As of last discussion it seems they ... er, Cody ... will probably nominate Christmas and Tyler with Christmas being the target.
  • Okay.
  • I can go with that.

BB22: Probably Not All Live Triple Eviction Show Blog Party - Oct. 1

 



It seems a real live two-hour triple eviction show isn't a real reality. The live feeds have been down since way early this morning. Combined with the narrator not saying tonight's show is live ... it's likely that at least part of the show will be coming to us taped. Oh, well. We still have three going home. I'd guess the last HoH comp will be after the show ends and, once again, not on the live feeds.

If you forgot who your hamster is in the blog pool, you can check it out with SueGee's latest update right at this here link.

I'll be live blogging 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!

First we need to sit through the Previously On segment ... 

Hmm ... I don't hear Julie saying the word "live" as she does her show start.

Okay, we know Cody didn't use the veto. Let's move along! Cody talks to David about taking the money during the veto comp ... again. Kevin tries to talk to Cody to unruffle their ruffled feathers. He apologizes and promises he won't come after Cody. Of course, Cody isn't voting as HoH. He might or might not have influence over the votes. He thinks he does.

Will shows up on the living room screen. He tells them he did well on the show because he didn't think one move ahead, or two moves ahead, maybe three steps ahead. Sure, blow this for us, Grodner. It should be a shock to them. They should not be forewarned with hints.

David thinks the only thing that makes sense about what Will said is triple eviction. Shut up, rookie! Will this affect Kevin as a target? They're scrambling around trying to think who should go next. But, of course, all will depend on who wins HoH.

First eviction of the night (not live) --
To the living room, she hints at action packed ahead.
Kevin - Speaks for BLM, crazy week, resilient, talked to you, can help your game, consider voting to keep me
David - Black male made it to jury, wants to stay for more experiences. hope you want to see me here.

The votes to evict:
Enzo - Kevin
Dani - Kevin
Tyler - Kevin
Christmas - Kevin
Nicole - Kevin
Memphis - Kevin

Once again, a house vote. Kevin is gonzo. He tells them he'll hug on finale night. He told Julie he didn't because they're all fake hugs when leaving. Whoa! They went almost a half-hour without a commercial? Or, is my mind going?

HOH comp time -- to the backyard. It's All About Will. Julie reads statements about Will's video appearances. 
1. Dani, Tyler, David out
2. All right
3. All right
4. Nicole out
5. Cody, Enzo, Christmas out
MEMPHIS WINS HOH AND MUST IMMEDIATELY NOMINATE

To the living room -- Memphis nominates David and Nicole.

Tyler, Christmas and Dani will play in the veto comp with David, Nicole, Memphis.

Ice in Your Veins - Make way across balance beam, make ice puzzle into fire puzzle, return and buzz in. CHRISTMAS WINS! And cusses, causing Julie not to announce her whole name. Nicole begs her to save her even though Memphis told her that he put her up to make sure David would go home.

Nicole hit the buzzer first but her puzzle was wrong.

Nicole - I picked your chip and you won your first veto
David - Want to stay in game

She does not use the veto.

Back to the living room for the second not live eviction vote.

They act surprised that the vote is now.
Nicole -- Benefit certain people's games, triple eviction (hmm) , save me
David -- Another eviction tonight, next to a winner, rookie wants to stay/p;ay

The votes to evict:
Cody - David
Christmas - Nicole
Tyler - Nicole
Enzo - David
Dani - David

So, now David is out. He doesn't hug and pretty much walks out fast saying he'll see them on finale night. He's cordial enough with Julie, though.

After the David interview, Julie calls them all back to the living room. All seven of them. She confirms the triple even though they saw the sign in back of her on the screen. Dr. Will and the three moves ahead is brought up by Julie. Out to the yard.

HoH comp -- Same booths as last comp. It's All About You -- questions about events that have taken place during this season. Seven questions.
1. All right
2. Dani, Enzo out
3. All right
4. TYLER WINS HOH!

Sure enough, as I thought, Dani and then Nicole go running to him.

Tyler nominates Dani and Nicole, apologizes. 

Once again the veto is on the balance beam set up. Racing balance beam, recreate fire veto.

Christmas out first. Nicole out. TYLER WINS POV!

Veto meeting. 
Nicole - Not wise for your game but I would love it.
Dani - You're not going to use it, I won't beg

Tyler says Dani was planting seeds about him and Nicole wasn't telling him. He does not use the veto.

The eviction time.
Nicole - I don't know what to say, amazing experience, keep me in
Dani - Tyler/Christmas final two, swears to put them up, adores Nicole

The votes to evict:
Cody - Dani
Memphis - Dani
Christmas - Dani
Enzo - Dani

So, Dani is out. Snide remark to Christmas about it being personal on the way out.

Next show is Monday night, not Sunday!
