BB23: Live Feeds into Wednesday Morning - August 4

 

Did aliens invade the house?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Masked Marauders:

• Welcome to the all mask all the time live feeds report!
• No, they didn't have them on all day.
• It's just that all my screen caps are the facial masks.
• I'm silly like that.
• Besides, not too much of consequence otherwise went down in the house.
• Despite her seduction attempts, Whitney remains the target and we'll probably be seeing a house vote again. 
• Perhaps not unanimous but a house vote nonetheless.
• There was plenty of scheming and "if ____ wins HOH" talk going on.
• Tiffany has now taken Hannah under her wing and seems to be willing to have Hannah take a shot at Claire.
• Yet she still has a final two deal with Claire and they are working together.
• Now, Claire is good at the game. But will she catch on that Tiffany is cut-throat enough to scheme against her?
• Although it's been three men out in a row and now we'll have the first female, the girls are realizing that the men are winning the comps.
• Well, not Derek F. 
• The other men.
• with all the scheming, this crowd is one of the first in years that really seem to like each other.
• Azah injured her leg in the veto comp and, of course, Tiffany took that opportunity to work her mojo with her. 
• Tiffany told Azah that she considered Hannah a full-fledged member of the Cookout. Azah and most (if not all) consider her sort of a peripheral member. Hannah didn't even know it had a name until someone (I forget ... Xavier?) let it slip.
• So, Tiffany is trying to get more acceptance of Hannah -- not for this week against Whitney as that won't be an issue -- for a soldier in her own game. 
• As I said, cut-throat player. But very good.
• I can't recall a house past maybe the first year that gathered together each night and did something. Other seasons it happened on and off. But this house doesn't miss a night of gathering whether it be the Big Blue Couch Show, a nightclub night or an evening of facials.
• Overall, the intelligence factor has changed as well. When I hear a Derek X referring to the pandemic as "dystopian" I can see some lingual hope for the younger generation.
• That said, all the alliances are driving me bonkers. I can't keep up.
• Now Christian and Britini have a final two deal.
• So, Christian went to Alyssa and told her.
• I thought they had a final two deal!
• Darn. And people talked about Tyler and all of his final twos! I think everyone in the house this season has multiple final two deals!
• It kind of cheapens the whole thing.
• Oh, well. They don't know teams will be ending, probably this week.
• Like on Survivor, I'm sure some will retain the team loyalty.
• But the Cookout may trump that loyalty.
• Whatever happens down the line, I still predict that Derek F will be the first one out of the HOH endurance comp this week.
• Heh.
• They also have no clue that's coming. Most have been studying days.

The red looked like crazed hunters with smeared blood.

Is she applying a facial or giving a lap dance?

Facial diversity

Yes, that's Azah. Really. Just a bit scary.

Alyssa should have color-coordinated
her clothes with the mask.

BB23: Live Feeds into Tuesday Morning - August 3

 

You can just see the joy on his face!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Entertainment Eagles:

• With Christian not using the veto yesterday, Whitney is not asking for whom the bell tolls.
• She realizes it's her.
• Of course, if not for silly alliances and people voting with the HOH, the smarter move for their own games would be to take out Hannah while they have the opportunity.
• Of the two nominees, Hannah is the one who just might have it in her to win it all.
• Whitney not so much.
• Her way of fighting to stay is to hang all over Xavier.
• Um. Well.
• It really wasn't a good day for that. Xavier has already told her that he didn't want a girlfriend with children (hint to her!) plus he had been very emotional because he broke his deceased brother's bracelet.
• It just was not a good time to hang all over him.
• He was kind enough to not kick her away but he certainly didn't want to be there.
• Tiffany is continuing to work her campaign to target SarahBeth. She plants the seeds and the others take it from there.
• The more they target SarahBeth the less a target on the two Tiffany wants to stick around for a while -- Derek X and Christian.
• As of now they have no clue that the HOH comp will be endurance.
• I'm personally hoping for a wall as the women should do well and might have some competition from Derek X.
• Alliances are still all over the place with the Cookout remaining intact.
• I've gotten to the point that I'm having a hard time figuring out who's lying to whom and why these days.
• Supposedly Tiffany and Hannah now have a final two pact. But do they really? Or is it all in interest of Tiffany's gameplay?
• I just don't know.
• They had a mock trial last night over the 'theft" of bucket hats among their other entertainment attempts.
• I will say this group is much more into time-occupying group activities than past hamsters.
• However, sometimes it's just a "group" of two -- Britini interrupted a make-out session under covers by Christian and Alyssa.
• Oh, well.
• Whitney is still the target this week.

Every time they yawn, I yawn.

Derek X is having a ball in the house!

Trials and tribulations

Is the weight making it sit on its frame yet?

I really wanted to like her. Just can't do it.

Hannah is actually the bigger threat of the two nominees.

BB23: Live Feeds POV Bulletin - August 2

 

So, here I was patiently sitting waiting for the live feeds to return and expecting the unexpected.

Huh?

What? 

I got the expected. Christian did not use the Power of Veto. Hannah and Whitney remain on the block.

Tiffany rockin' the beach hat

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Coy Coyotes:

• With the yard open and their big "night out" Night Club event happening, they could only talk game about ten hours yesterday.
• Okay, just to be clear, their night out is a dress up event on the balcony over the yard.
• Whitney is still holding out hope that Christian will use the veto and save her.
• Silly girl.
• She thinks if she's not saved that hanging all over Xavier might save her game.
• That's just whack! 
• Yes, Whitney, he probably would go for a restraining order. I don't think he's that into you!
• Tiffany schooled Hannah on some do's and don'ts's of the game. "Listen more and speak less." It seems that Hannah was a bit too quick and accurate with days questions answers when studying with Christian and Christian tells Alyssa everything so that's more ammunition against her.
• Alyssa keeps scheming against Hannah while Hannah keeps scheming against SarahBeth.
• Oh. And Tiffany is also on the Target Sarah Beth boat.
• Kyland had one of his long camera talks. He says it's getting hard and he loves everyone. He really wants SarahBeth to stay.
• He also said that Whitney had told them (before she was nominated) that she didn't want to sit in jury as she misses her kids.
• Now, that was either not on the feeds or I missed it.
• She can go. With the blog connection to her, I wanted to be able to cheer her on. But I just can't do it. 
• Azah and Derek X had a lengthy discussion of Kaysar and Janelle, season six. Derek wasn't familiar with that season at all but knows who Janelle and Kaysar are.
• Tiffany joined in on the talk and is also enamored with Janelle and Kaysar.
• Both Azah and Tiffany said they preferred "old school" BB.
• When Derek X asked what the difference was, they told him that people didn't vote with the HOH and huge huge alliances didn't exist.
• Yet that's the game Tiffany and Azah are playing.
• @@
• Xavier and Derek F have decided that Derek F has to win HOH this week and target Christian.
• Bwahahaha!
• Pardon me.
• I need to stop guffawing.
• I need to at least get it down to a chortle.
• They don't know that the HOH will be endurance.
• Unless it's sitting or laying down, Derek F is not a Master of Endurance.
• I predict first out.
• I'll let you know how the Veto Meeting goes when I know. I sincerely doubt that Christian will use the veto.

Xavier rockin' the blanket

I predict a good friendship for years to come.

I love his storage room talks to the camera (us)

They are starting to realize he is a threat
 both physical and mental.

Most like him more than his showmance partner

BB23: Wild Card Comp and Nominations Show Blog Party - Aug. 1

 

Good evening! Welcome to the blog, welcome to the party! Since this is a show post, please don't post spoilers from the live feeds in the comments area. Unfortunately, I will have to remove such comments as some of the folks following the show posts aren't into the live feeds. Merci!

I will be live-blogging, updating this post as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page the get the latest happenings! As always, the real party is in the comments section. I hope to see you there!

Let's sit out "previously on" playing pattycake!

We pick up the action after the HOH comp ends. Christian is singing the praises of the Kings. Xavier tells us that last week, besides Brent as a target, Whitney and Hannah were the most mentioned. He would prefer they target Whitney (as Hannah is sort of a member of the Cookout). Britini is thrilled because she's sure she won't be a target this week.

Derek F is fussing to Azah that he hasn't won anything. He's sure the Kings (winning HOH team) will target them. Azah really wanted the win, but is handling it okay.

Christian is worried about the responsibility. Claire is a bit worried that she might go on the block and is determined to win the Wild Card to ensure her safety. Hannah thinks Christian might put her up as a pawn.

Derek F is whining again. He whines because his team are the underdogs but I think a lot of it is because he hasn't won anything.

Christian isn't sure what to do. The Whitney and Hannah scenario comes up. They think Whitney would/should be the target. SarahBeth is more concerned with the fact that Hannah is a stronger player and should go over Whitney. Then Britini's name comes up as a renom. Or should he use Azah as a pawn? Decisions, decisions.

Heh. Derek F comments on Whitney's scanty clothing. I will say I'm so glad my mother didn't dress like that.

This week's social commentary is Derek X feeling alone as a child of immigrants in western culture. Azah was teased because her skin is so dark. Derek X wants to provide a different image of a Chinese/American person.

Wild Card comp time! Claire is the only eligible member of her team, so she will play. Same for Whitney. Azah goes for her team. The comp is a club set-up with a huge martini glass and a "zone" for each of them. They have to make their own drinks. It's a ball (olive) rolling into their drink table maze comp with a power black out possible. The house can watch the comp on the screen in the living room. Claire keeps coming closest to winning.

CLAIRE WINS THE WILD CARD COMP!

The decision she has to make? Safety for her and her team for one week or safety just for herself for jury. She goes for ... her own game and safety! Her teammates are already safe with Christian this week and it's the smart move to make. She and her teammates - Tiffany and Kyland - do the happy win dance in the storage room.

HOH Royal Flush meeting in progress. There are so many of them that it's hard to find nominees. Throw in the Cookout members there and some of the Royal Flush may balk. Alyssa wants Hannah out. Tiffany suggests Britini. SarahBeth pushes the Hannah agenda.

Christian wants to meet up with with Derek F, Azah and Britini. Derek F trash talks Whitney saying that she's been saying that she would go after the Kings. Britini agrees. Christian's co-HOH Alyssa is with him. In talking with their own team it's looking like Hannah would go up with Whitney and Whitney is the target.

Christian talks to Hannah, telling her that he can't put up Derek X as he would go home (larger threat), the target is Whitney ... would she (Hannah) be a pawn? She is reluctant. She tells him that he would be safe if she wins HOH.

Time for the Nominations Ceremony -- Christian puts Whitney, then Hannah. He tells them that he or his team would have been targeted by either of them if they won HOH.
