BB23: Live Feeds into Monday Morning - July 19

 

Enduring a Frenchie talk until Claire saves him.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Wacky Wombats:

• As it was Sunday it was quiet on the home front -- no comps, the PoV decision pretty much known ahead of time, the yard open and Frenchie saying he accepts that he will be leaving.
• Of course, the fact that Frenchie will be leaving is because of THEM, nothing he did.
• He was loyal.
• He kept his word.
• That is the World According to Frenchie.
• He is still saying there will probably be a twist.
• With the exception of Derek F, who is really saddened about Frenchie's expected eviction, the others are all either enduring or humoring him just to keep the drama level down.
• The HOH camera was out and about.
• In the evening they once again did group skit/game activities.
• Derek F said that he thinks they're all telling the truth about their jobs but Xavier is too smart to be a bartender, he has to be a lawyer or something.
• SNAP! Xavier recovered from his initial shock about it and laughed it off, but ...!
• Derek F, except for his infatuation with Frenchie, is a very observant game player.
• Power of Veto meeting is later today -- it won't be used.
• Then it's a long time until Thursday!

He's fitting in more and staying away from Frenchie.

Stop it, Tiffany! When you yawn I yawn!

Not a showmance. Really.

He SAYS he's accepted that he will be evicted.

Not much game talk goes on in the yard.

Not a showmance? Um, well. Right.

BB23: Wildcard Comp and Nominations Show Blog Party - July 18

 

Welcome, everybody! On the show we last saw Kyland win the Head of Household. Will the week be as chaotic with him at the helm as it was with Frenchie? Well, I actually don't believe that is possible. Frenchie just might be the winner of the most confusing HoH reign ever!

I know even the Power of Veto is already done on the live feeds. However, the show posts are NO SPOILER zones. Many people follow just the show posts and don't want the show spoiled. Any spoiler comments will be removed.

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

Previously on ... yeah, there's that. We saw the shows. We know. Move along!

We pick up the action after they finish the HoH. Kyland is thrilled, of course. But now he wants to know why the vote wasn't unanimous. Alyssa also wants to know. We know -- Tiffany and Derek F. Both knew it wouldn't evict Alyssa and both did it because Frenchie asked them to do so. Tiffany did it because he kept her safe and made him swear not to tell. She already has it planned to blow him out of the water if it gets out. Derek F did it because Frenchie's his "boo."

Claire and Tiffany are beyond happy to be on the winning team and be safe with Kyland in charge. Xavier thinks it might just be a smooth week. 

Frenchie meets up with Brent, Whitney and Tiffany, tells them he knows who cast the two votes but won't tell. Tiffany is irked that he even felt the need to mention it.

Tiffany warns Kyland to beware of Frenchie. He tells us it's not the first time he's been warned. Travis gave him the lowdown -- not a man of his word, breaks promises, etc.

HOH Room reveal. I like how Kyland opened the door and held for everyone. His letter brought tears to his eyes. So, Tiffany offered to read it to the room and he gratefully accepted the offer. She read it very well ... almost as if his Mom was talking to him.

But then Tiffany herself gets emotional ... or plays it for show to the others. Heh. Gotta love that girl! She sees everything Frenchie is doing and tells us he has to go home Thursday.

Wild Card time! Queens are safe due to HOH, Hannah and Christian already played so they can't play again. Frenchie wants to play in it. SarahBeth plays. Aces go for the random draw -- Brent. Kyland tells them to put on their nicest attire and get ready for a wild night out on the town.

Kyland tells Frenchie he will be asking questions, not giving out information. Frenchie tells him that if he stays, he'll always be the bigger target. He tells Kyland that he will be safe. Frenchie thinks that Kyland's demeanor is throwing up red flags. Oh, he's probably right.

Frenchie announces to Whitney that he's out (of the Slaughterhouse) in front of others who don't know he was even in it. Even Brent is saying that Frenchie is playing like a loose cannon. Whitney confronts Frenchie alone and he tells her no drama and doesn't give her the time of the day. Now she wants nothing to do with him. Frenchie talks to Brent who thinks he wants him to throw the comp and let him win. Nope. Not going to work.

The WC comp is set up as the private BB Beach Club art gallery. They are shown changing artwork and have to select a correct swatch. BB Flying Colors. The first to three points wins. First was the exclamation point in a painting. SarahBeth gets it right and gets splashed with paint. Brent got the second one right. Frenchie got the third one. SarahBeth gets a second point. SARAHBETH WINS THE WILD CARD COMP! Frenchie knows he's in trouble.

SarahBeth istold that if she wants the week of safety she has to swap with someone on Kyland's team. SarahBeth passes on the offer. She wants to stay with her own team and trusts Kyland.

Kyland talks to Tiffany who calls Brent, Whitney and Frenchie a three-headed monster in the house. She tells us she's not sure where Kyland sits with Frenchie. A brief bit with all telling him separately about Frenchie, even Brent and Whitney throwing the farmer under the tractor ... er, bus. Britini brings up duos of Whitney/Brett and Christian/Alyssa. She does not mention Frenchie.

Time for the nominations! Kyland nominates Frenchie, then Britini. He tells Frenchie that he can't trust him. Britini is loyal and he was worried that she would take Frenchie down if she won veto.

Told Derek X not to use the veto to save her

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Turning Tides:

• Unless he's lying again, Frenchie has accepted the fact that he will most likely, almost positively, be the one going home this week.
• He's walking around saying he won't mope, he wants to just have fun this last week and he doesn't want to talk game.
• But then he'll turn around and talk game a bit.
• But his demeanor seems to have changed.
• Maybe he is really realizing he totally blew his whole game.
• Er, no. He still thinks it was "them."
• At least he told Britini that it's him not her at fault for her being on the block.
• Britini told Derek X not to use the veto to save her as that would put someone else from her team (or a friend?) up on the block.
• Everyone has assured her that she will stay and that they all want Frenchie out.
• It does bother me that Britini said that if the vote isn't unanimous for Frenchie to go, she will know who wants her out.
• GEEZ.
• I wish unanimous votes could be forbidden! Even in the case of Frenchie. Now, as much as they want him out, it should be understood if, for example, Derek F wants to throw him a vote.
• What is the big deal?
• Haven't they realized after all these years that if there are a few stray votes in a house vote that someone is just messing with them?
• Silly hamsters.
• They got the yard.
• Not much else is happening.
• While it seems Frenchie is now accepting his fate, Thursday is a long time away.

Not surprising he reminds them of 'Jersey Shore'

She has BB savvy, he can win comps -- Dynamic Duo!

Funky funky Kyland (actually headgear due to POV)

Brent needs to go before Christian

Has he really accepted that he will be going home?

BB23: Live Feeds Saturday and POV - July 17

 

Yes, Frenchie gives me a headache, too.

This one is going to be a bit brief but lots of pretty pictures! Here's what's been happening inside that Big Brother House of Loathsome Lies:

• Frenchie may not be HOH any longer, but now he has new lies and promises.
• First, he just KNOWS America will save both him and Britini.
• @@
• He told Britini that if he wins POV, he will save her with it. He promised.
• He said he's ready to go home.
• He said he wants to be back with his family.
• He said Britini should stay over him as she was on the block because of him. (That last part is true.)
• He guilt-tripped people not Britini saying that all he was going to do with the winning money was donate it to a school anyway.
• He said that he's done everything he wanted to do in the game anyway -- played PoV, won HOH, nominated people, been on the block, etc. Let me go home, he says.
• Oh, wait.
• He then decided he needs to stay until the fifth eviction.
• After all, he can save their game.
• "Hallelujah! Praise be The Frenchie. We are saved! We are saved! All hail our hero!" -- they cried.
• Heh. I made up that last one. 
• I just hope that Britini isn't foolish enough to hand him the veto (if she wins it) so he can save her with it. She said she would do that. Eep.
• If that goes down, we have a new level of ridiculousness!
• Dan Gheesling had a mist. He misted people.
• Frenchie has a brain fog. He brain fogs people.
• The veto players are: Kyland, Frenchie, Britini, Alyssa, Derek X, Claire with Tiffany hosting.
• Right now I'm waiting out the comp before posting.

DEREK X WON THE POWER OF VETO AGAIN!

Derek F worried he has no one if Frenchie goes

SarahBeth remains the only one promised safety by Kyland.

His HOH is so different and much less confusing than last week!

Thank goodness he now has Tiffany. He's still a bit lost.

Using his brain fog much as Dan used his mist.

Closing your eyes and wishing for miracles won't work.

Already gravitating to Kyland and knocking Frenchie.

Actually becoming a bit more tolerable.

That's MR. Veto to you, Frenchie!

BB23: Friday Live Feeds/Nominations - July 16

 

Claire seems to be in a good place

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Crumbling Catfish:

• They played the Wildcard Comp and the winner was (drumroll please) ... SarahBeth.
• She gave up the safety because she did not want to switch teams.
• Frenchie got all bent out of shape about it because he apparently told her to throw it.
• Oh, I forgot to tell you -- the Have Nots this week are Whitney, Brent, Derek X and Hannah. Whitney and Brent volunteered them without even consulting the other two.
• So far Kyland is handling his HOH better than most we've seen.
• Due to a time crunch, he tried to give each person a five-minute one on one meeting.
• He asked them (or most of them) the same two questions -- What can they or do they want to tell him about what's going on in the house and who they thought did the two hinky votes.
• They ALL threw Frenchie under that Bus of Reality.
• Even Whitney -- Frenchie had snapped at her in front of other people that he's through with the Slaughterhouse and, obviously, that outed her as an ally.
• Even Brent -- saying that Frenchie had handled the HOH poorly and is causing issues (even though he loves him as a person). Brent used part of his time trying to con Kyland into working with him.
• Tiffany's talk was interesting. She told him he should keep Frenchie but get one of his two henchmen out -- either Whitney or Brent. She told him she thinks those two were the hinky votes at Frenchie's request so they could blame him (Kyland and Derek X). She says Frenchie himself is powerless without those two.
• Remember ... Tiffany herself was one of the hinky votes at Frenchie's request.
• When Kyland asked her if one of those three went, would working with the other two be possible? She all but snorted and said, "If you work with a snake, you know sooner or later he will bite you."
• She suggested to him that it might be good if the Kings, Queens and Derek X worked together.
• Then ... poof ... time for blocked live feeds, pretty kittens and the nominations ceremony.
• I'm waiting it out now as I get this typed up.
• And the nominations are BRITINI AND fRENCHIE!
• Britini is almost hysterical crying.
• Frenchie is consoling her and Derek F, telling them they both need to be calm and take it easy. He will take it, make the target on his own back big enough that he will be sure to go so they won't have to. He told Britini that if he wins the veto, he will save her. Not a real Marcellas bit as he would plan to go home. He is sure he'd get the vote.
• Derek F seems more upset that two from their team were chosen rather than the people themselves who were chosen. 

"If you evict me, you lose the whole show!"

Tiffany is one of the best ever on the show!

If he handled HOH like he is his nom, we would adore him.

Britini? Not taking it well at all.
