Big Brother: BB24 HOH Comp and Nominations Show Blog Party - August 28

 

Tonight's show is scheduled a half-hour late here on the East Coast due to sports. Grr. I'm preparing this post ahead of time. Football ran over, but I'm not sure how much over. So, the show will probably be starting later than 8:30PM EDT. This post will go up at 8:25PM EDT anyway and we'll wait!

The show should cover the HOH comp and nominations. I know the live feeds are beyond that point. But I ask that no live feeds spoilers be posted on the show posts. Thank you very much!

I will be live-blogging and updating this post constantly with the major events 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. I hope to see you there!

Finally ... at 8:40PM EDT, the show starts. Previously On. You know the drill.

Okay, the final eight were reunited. Will there be war? Who will be HOH? Who will be nominated? Inside they were expecting Alyssa to be gone and she's still there. Turner is happy Jasmine is gone. Kyle is wondering what will happen because he betrayed the Leftovers. Taylor is in tears because Joseph is gone. She really cared about him.

Dyre Fest tells the others the horrors they went through outside. Yes, it was like a punishment. Alyssa tells us that the After Party (yard alliance) decided to blame Joseph for his own demise in the game. Turner likes everybody and feels aligned with all, but will go with the blame Joseph game.

Terrance is planning on not revealing that he knows anything about the Kyle lies to Michael and Brittany. Michael is skeptical. 

Time for the HOH comp! Smallest music fest in the world. Stacking micro-energy drinks into a pyramid of color rows with tweezers. We've seen this comp before. It seems to be taking forever as everybody's stacks are falling. Kyle is coming real close and POOF. Monte and Turner are doing well.

TURNER IS THE NEW HOH!

Monte is still concerned about what might have happened at Dyre Fest and what Turner will do.

Turner doesn't know what he'll do. But Terrance is thrilled. Kyle is glad the winner was someone from the After Party.

Michael is thinking Terrance and Alyssa have to go on the block as they are the only non-Leftovers. Turner tells us he will lie to Michael and Brittany and tell them they were safe. And, he does. Taylor tells Turner that Joseph was the first one to come to her when she was so alone in the beginning of the game.

Alyssa feels safe. Kyle feels safe. Terrance feels safe. Turner tells us he needs to prioritize what's best for his own game. He thinks he needs a final two deal with Kyle. Turner suggests to Kyle that he could take out Alyssa so he won't have to. Nonono! Kyle does not want that! Turner has little faith in either Terrance or Alyssa going up against the biggest competitors (Michael, Monte?) in the house.

Taylor is getting red flags over the Dyre Fest people. She knows Joseph wouldn't do what they're saying and their stories seem too pat. The inside Leftovers are all worried about what happened in the yard. Turner tells Monte that Joseph told him that Brittany, Michael and Taylor had an alliance within their alliance. Now Turner realizes that Monte is someone he can work with and that he and Kyle are at the bottom of the Leftovers anyway.

Neither Kyle nor Alyssa know anything about European countries. That doesn't surprise me. Kyle thinks it's geometry, not geography. @@

Because of what Turner told him, Monte is now aboard the Kyle train. Argh. I don't like that. He suggests voting Michael out in a backdoor with Brittany and Taylor on the block. He thinks chances are that neither woman will win the veto.

Now Turner is against the Leftovers once again.

Time for the nominations ceremony. Turner first nominates Taylor, then Brittany. Love as people but Joseph said they were in a final three and he wasn't included.

He's drawn the line in the sand. Taylor cries. She couldn't believe Joseph would hurt her. Michael is sure it's a backdoor plan for him. The narrator tells us the POV comp will be slip and slide.

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds into Sunday Noontime - August 28

 

Fruity delicious!

Here's a brief report on the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Topsy Turvy:

• Before he won the veto, Michael had a big talk with the cameras (us) in anger.
• Anger at Turner? Not so much.
• It was more aimed at Kyle.
• He swore that Kyle doesn't know who he was messing with and, if he (Michael) goes down, he will take Kyle with him.
• Now, I'm not sure WHO he will be saving with the veto. He told Taylor he would save her. But he also told Brittany he was telling Taylor he would save her.
• So, I don't really know for sure. I would think he would save Brittany as she has been his main ally all along.
• But he has started the warpath on Kyle.
• He told Monte and Taylor about Kyle's white alliance plans. However, that was not on the live feeds.
• But telling Alyssa about it was on the feeds with Brittany there, too.
• He says it goes "beyond the game.
• He put it much more gently than I would.

• Now, I'm far from an Alyssa fan.
• BUT ... she said she would never want to be a part of Kyle's plan.
• Will it be enough for her to vote him out if Michael can convince Turner to renom Kyle?
• Michael still has to go to Turner about it.
• I don't think Turner would take too well to Kyle's thinking.
• I guess we'll see.
• It would be nice if Kyle could go up and out.
• Just a reminder -- tonight's show is scheduled a half-hour later on the East Coast.

Telling Alyssa about Kyle's "white alliance" plans

I want no part of that!

Needs to do what's best for his game

Allies, but you must think of your own game, too

Getting some exposure, eh?

Should he be considered a threat?

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds into Saturday Evening, POV - August 27

 

I'm happy not to be her mother

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Wayward Warthogs:

• As you know from my last update, Turner nominated Brittany and Taylor with a backdoor plan of Michael.
• Yes, as a show fan, that kind of sucks.
• But I can see it being the right move for Turner's game.
• He was on the bottom rung as a Leftover.
• I don't think he's all that much higher as an After Party. But he doesn't have as much real comp competition.
• I realized that Turner snores. Not as loudly as Terrance, but I wouldn't want him staying on my couch!
• Nothing much happened until they blocked the live feeds for the veto players picks.
• Kyle is not playing. Good. I don't like him. Maybe things will change and he would truly be backdoored -- put up as a renom with no chance to play for veto.
• Terrance is also not playing. He will be hosting the comp.
• Michael is certain that a backdoor is in the works for him. He's studying the days and comps.
• They chose the veto players late and I think it will be a late comp.
• I'm writing the bulk of this non-bulky report early-ish. But it's past 7:30PM EDT here and the feeds aren't blocked for the comp yet. It's often over by this time.
• Brittany is discussing places to Hide a Veto with Michael in case that's the veto comp.
• At 8:30PM EDT, the BB voice announced: "Wakey wakey, time to get up for the day." 
• Um. Okay.
• It's been reprimanding them for napping.
• Still no comp start at 8:45PM EDT.
• At 8:49PM EDT, the feeds cut away to the theme music and "We'll be right back" screen.
• Until it goes to adoptable animals, I can't say the comp has started.
• 8:56PM EDT the feeds return. Comp has not started.
• Eventually they will have the comp and eventually I'll update this and hit send.
• Finally to adoptable animals at 10:32PM EDT. BB called Terrance to the Diary Room about ten minutes before, probably for costume and host speech prep.
• Now I can watch a movie, then return to see if the feeds have come back.
• I do this all for you, you know.
• 12:20AM EDT ... feeds still blocked.
• 1:30AM EDT -- the feeds return.
• It was a slip/slide fill the container type comp.
• Michael won the Power of Veto.
• I really think he needed to win it, too.
• The veto meeting will be Monday.
• Until then, it's Taylor and Brittany on the block although Michael did tell Taylor if he won veto, he would save her.
• I guess we'll see ... 

Exciting stuff like chowing down happened today

And shaving! A thrill a minute!

Michael going over the days and comps to himself

Looking glum

He looked happier harassing Jasmine. 

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds Nominations Bulletin - August 26

 

Turner has been telling different people different stories and it's hard to tell with whom he might be telling the truth.

Well, now we know.

After saying most of the night that he would be putting Alyssa and Terrance on the block, his real nominations today were ... BRITTANY AND TAYLOR. Since, with that story, he was tying in a Michael backdoor, I would guess that's what he's aiming for.

I think Michael is one of the best overall players we've seen in years. If Turner pulls that off, he certainly would have a feather in his cap. I will have to Photoshop one in on the screen cap. It would be a good game move for him. If he can't get Michael out, no one could win against him at the end.

I'd prefer for my own reasons that he target Kyle. 

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds Thursday Evening, New HOH - August 25/26

 

Learning to mime?

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Reunited and It Feels So ...:

• The feeds returned before the West Coast airing of the show.
• Everybody was getting along without a hint of the changes decided by the prior backyard crew.
• They showered, ate and played Chinese checkers while telling of various events in their respective places during the week.
• The feeds were blocked for the HOH comp.
• It was the tiny stacking or furniture type comp.
• With this one, Turner was a shoe-in due to his intricate work with rugs.
• And, he was.
• Turner is the new HOH.
• Beware, Monte, Michael and Brittany.

Turner showered

Monte mingles

Alyssa settled in with no shower

And, Turner wears the HOH key
