Big Brother: BB24 Live Season Finale Show Blog Party

 

The Final Three bid us adieu on the live feeds.

Well, this is it. I believe we have a final three no one would have predicted -- Turner, Taylor and Monte. At least no one floated to the finish this season! All three have won at least a couple of big comps.

Tonight's taped segments should include the finish of the hot dog clutching Part One of the HOH comp, the second part of the three-part HOH comp and the Round Table. Although the winners of Part One and Part Two are known by feeds watchers, I ask people not to mention them in the comments until they air on the show.

Live on the show will be Part Three of the HOH comp which will be the winners of Part One and Part Two competing. The winner of that part then will decide the last eviction and we will be at the final two. Then there are the jury questions, and some choose me speeches. And THEN, we will have a winner of the $750,000. After the winner is crowned, we will have the Favorite Houseguest announcement.

The Esteemed Lifeguard SueGee has updated the blog pool and here are our final three:

Monte    - Sally, Willie J, Rodney
Taylor    - CherylNY, Donna in AL, Cherry Pie
Turner (Matt)- Bizaro22, Glenn Allen, Jasonuwp

Jury

Indy

Joseph

Jasmine

I will be live-blogging, updating this post constantly as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest news. Asa always, the real party is in the comments area -- please feel free to join in on the fun! 

Hamster watchers ready? Got your snacks and adult beverages? Let's get this finale ON!

Julie is wearing a simple red dress tonight. Previously on and on. We know this stuff. Bring on the hot dogs! Weinerpalooza!

82 days ... a rather short season, but this past week lasted at least two weeks for me!

Ah, finally Day 79 and the hot dogs! Monte's arms actually fit around his hot dog to the slot on the far side. The other two have to use the hand grips. Turner tells us he gets dizzy easy. Taylor is down at 36 minutes. Monte out at 46.04 minutes. 

TURNER wins Part One of the final HOH comp! Julie promises us Dr. Will and the Roundtable.

Part Two - Zipline Veto Stage/HOH Stage. Fill in the comps in the proper order on both billboards. Festival Line Up. They can only take two "signs" across with the zipline each time. Taylor is up first. She got the order right the first time but this is a timed event, too.

Monte's turn. He gets them right the first try, too. Who was the fastest?

Taylor - 7.04, Monte - 6.41 

MONTE wins Part Two and will go up against Turner in Part Three.

Turner thinks it's a good thing. In week two, he and Monte made a final two pact. Turner tells him he will take him if he wins. Monte thinks the decision is tough and he would have a better shot at winning against Taylor.

The Round Table -- The jury thinks the smart move would be for Monte to join them, but it is indeed Brttany as they thought it would be. They talk about Turner playing a good game. Michael thinks that Monte is the one who got him out and Turner doesn't own up to things. He is quite anti-Turner. Alyssa and Terrance speak up for him. 

Joseph thinks Taylor plays with strategy as opposed to Turner. Jasmine says Taylor's big move was making through being on the block five times. Will wants to know what she did strategically. Kyle says relationships. Michael says she got others to put up her enemies.

Monte -- only on the block once as a pawn. Michael seems quite pro-Monte. Indy says he was one of her closest friends in the house. Brittany thinks he's getting sloppy socially. Terrance thinks he never really connected with him. 

Dr. Will is looking so grey. I feel so old.

Time for Part Three of the HOH Comp! Monte and Turner have a divider between them. Jury Fest. How well do you know the jurors. Jury fest video, three statements about the juror. Which statement is false. Eight videos.

1. Indy's Psychic Booth - Both right.

2. Jasmine's Muffin Truck - Both right.

3. Joseph is a security guard - Both right

4. Kyle's Dance Party - Both right.

5. Terrance's Tattoos - Both right.

6. Michael's Carnival Games - Monte right

7. Alyssa's Info Booth - Both wrong

8. Brittany's Meditation Station - Monte right

MONTE wins the Final HOH!

To the living room --

Turner - Final two, loyalty, love you, your decision

Taylor - World and moon if you take me to final two. Easy win for you to take me.

Monte chooses to evict ... TURNER. He goes out graciously. He tells Julie he is shocked, not mad. He would have taken Monte to the final two. He is very good with Julie.

Jury question time! Turner joins them. Michael and Terrance correctly guessed it would be him. Three total questions for each finalist.

Kyle - Monte - other than using Michael veto, what was your pivotal move to final two? He says evicting Turner.

Michael - Taylor - You were big target, did you adapt your game to get this far? Being who I am and played how I wanted to.

Joseph - Monte - Biggest blunder? Didn't stay true to himself in protecting Michael and Brittany.

Jasmine - Taylor - Move you orchestrated? Alliance with Michael/Brittany, joined Leftovers, protected girls the best she could.

Brittany - Monte - Where did you take a risk in the game? Make sure Nichole and Daniel didn't use veto and risked being evicted the next week.

Indy - Taylor - On the block weak game play? Resilient, blockbuster.

Turner - Monte - Biggest move was breaking our final two. Why should you get my vote? Heard you and Kyle had a final two after Dyre Fest.

The speeches --

Monte - Beautiful members of the jury. Played a strong competitive game, lists his wins and alliances. No false promises. Only touched the block twice, only one time on eviction night. Instrumental in getting two top competitors out -- Michael and Turner.

Taylor -  Likes Monte's speech. Won three comps, two of them HOHs. Sat on the block six times on eviction night. Continued to fight as a woman does. Called names, attempted all white alliance formed. I am not a shield, I am a thorn. Resiliency! Challenging you what kind of winner you want this year!

Time to vote:

Indy - One of my favorite people

Jasmine - Voting for person carrying on what I should have

Joseph - Love you both, voting for the sword of the season

Kyle - Both deserving, voting to rep the season.

Terrance - Love you both

Michael - Strongest player

Alyssa - Take our power back

Brittany - Love you both

Turner - Just made up my mind

Time for the early non-jury evictees to show up Joseph was asked about Dyre Fest, says he did everything he could to protect Taylor and Brittany. Onto profession lies. Michael is a criminal defense attorney. Joseph admits he's the second lawyer. Ameerah talks of the Monte/Taylor showmance. Taylor says he's a close friend. Monte agrees and pleads the fifth. Alyssa and Kyle ... he hopes it will work out. Pooch - you volunteered to go home, Pooch yourself new BB lingo. 

Who ate Jasmine's muffin? Turner 'fesses up and says he ate it in the Diary Room.

Time to reveal the votes:

Turner - Monte

Brittany - Taylor

Alyssa - Taylor

Michael - Taylor

Terrance - Taylor

Kyle - Taylor ...

TAYLOR WINS bb24! 

Joseph, Jasmine and Indy all voted for Taylor.

Top Three Favorite HG - Michael, Taylor and Kyle.

TAYLOR also wins that!

Congratulations blog pool winners! CherylNY, Donna in AL, Cherry Pie!

Big Brother: BB24 Special Friday Final Three Episode Blog Party - Sept. 23

 This should be a clips show with memories of hamsters past. I probably won't be as intensively live blogging it as I do with most episodes. I'm thinking they will probably also have the start of the (taped) first part of the final HOH. Although many know the winner of that from the live feeds (and even Part Two), please don't post spoilers in the comments area as this is a show post.

As always, the real party is indeed in the comments area. Please feel free to join the party!

Previously On segment starts with the final four and Taylor winning HOH, Monte winning veto. At least they don't have us previously on going to the beginning of the season.

Yes, it is clips ... looks like we will see some funny ones, as well as the start of Part One of the Final HOH.

Monte tells us he thinks that both Taylor and Turner will take him to the final two. The final three have their champagne and a feast. Three leftovers with surf and turf. 

Onto a Jasmine segment -- having people wait on her. And being fussy about it. She tells us her husband waits on her all the time. This reminds me how annoying she was. Although the Muffin Mystery was definitely a highlight of the season!

Into Alyssa not knowing capitols or geography on the whole. "What is New England? A state?" Unbelievable! 

Daniel now. Bad memories for sure!

Terrance time. I refuse to call him DJ Showtime. He's definitely a Terrance. He likes to stuff Daniel puts in his weird hair and is buddy-buddy with Daniel. Oh, geez.

Turner said Pooch started the rumor he doesn't shower. He claims he showers every other day. Taylor says it's too little. Michael talks about all his dirty clothes lying about.

Now they're talking Dyre Fest. Turner says it was horrible. PortaPotties, heat, bugs.

Indy segment now. She tells the others her background as an immigrant here, her hopes and dreams. Joseph recognizes the hardships she had to go through as he himself is the child of immigrants.

Shout-out time for the Diary Room now.

The Problem With Kyle week is remembered now. The segment shows Terrance in perhaps the best light he was in all season -- compassionate and understanding. We would expect it from Taylor and she was understanding as well.

Now they are talking about a fake hamster named Peter who is dying from various causes while in the house. This is funny.

Joseph's segment. I find this a bit bittersweet because he seemed so crushed by hearing Monte hooked up with Taylor. He's after bugs in the segment.

Into asking things of the Diary Room.

Finally to the start of Part One of the Final HOH Comp ... the rest of it, as well as Part Two (also taped) and Part Three (live) will be shown in the finale on Sunday.

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds, We have a final HOH Part Two Winner - Sept. 23

 

The feeds have returned!

The problem is ... they are not talking about it. Taylor and Turner went off to nap in their respective beds, not saying anything to each other. Monte went off to cook some eggs. When the three were together, they just talked about being tired, whether there was champagne left, something about getting blankets and Monte asked if anyone wanted eggs.

I believe Monty won against Taylor in Part Two. The only indication is that when he walked in a room alone he gave prayer hands, then a victory fist. Taylor, on the other hand, seems quite subdued. They just called her to the Diary Room.

I will update this post when I get confirmation that Monte won or something that refutes it.

UPDATE: Confirmed Monte win. Taylor finally talked to a camera, telling us she lost by about 20 seconds. I don't know what the comp was.

Big Brother: BB24 Live Feeds Report, Final HOH Part 1 Winner - Sept. 23

 

Uses others to do his dirty work

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Down to the Wire:

• This won't be a long report.
• After all, it hasn't been a long time since last night's eviction of Brittany.
• I do not miss her talking.
• They had the first part of the final HOH comp -- the feeds were blocked, of course.
• Turner won it.
• You heard me. Turner is the winner of Part One, something about spinning and hot dogs from what I gather.
• That would mean that Part Two has Monte going against Taylor.
• The winner of Part Two goes up against Turner in Sunday's live finale show.
• The winner of the third part of the HOH comp then chooses who will go with him or her to the final two and who is out in third place.
• They expect the second part to happen today.
• It could very well be going on right now as I write this up since we have had adoptable animals for quite a while.
• I will let you know when I know.
• Also expected, I'm thinking tonight, is the Roundtable.
• We will not see that.

Taylor was not expected to last this long!

Who woulda thunk it? Final Three?

Big Brother: BB24 Live Eviction Final Four to Final Three - Sept. 22

 

Tonight, Monte has all the power as Veto holder and sole vote. Taylor, as HOH, cannot vote. Turner and Brittany are on the block. One thing we do know about Monte is that he will do what he thinks is best for his own game. Will that be keeping Turner ... or Brittany? Who would bring him to the final two if he's third in the three-round final HOH comp? Production kept the veto meeting for tonight's show just to make us and them suffer!

Before we get into the show, Lifeguard SueGee has updated the blog pool: 

Brittany    - Judi Sweeney, MikesGirl, Tilde, YoDave
Monte    - Sally, Willie J, Rodney
Taylor    - CherylNY, Donna in AL, Cherry Pie
Turner (Matt)- Bizaro22, Glenn Allen, Jasonuwp

Also in blog pool stuff -- Since we are skipping the first boots, the Survivor and The Amazing Race blog pools are both still open for sign-up until Friday -- TOMORROW. But don't wait! The Survivor blog pool sign-up is this here link. The Amazing Race blog pool sign-up is this link.

I will be live blogging the show, updating this post 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. I hope to see you there!

I don't know ... Julie's dress has too many abrupt angles for me! We're into Previously On and we know all that!

But first ... is the honeymoon over for BB's latest power couple? Once again Monte reminds us that it's his decision who to take to the final three. Turner knows Monte is sleeping upstairs with Taylor. He thinks Monte will take him to the final three, but they would take each other (Monte/Taylor) to the final two.

Monte is a bit ticked about something Taylor said about him not seeing his goddaughter. Taylor wants Brittany to feel comfortable coming by the HOH room. They are buddy-buddy. Turner wants to know if he is still final two with Monte or not. Monte admits he was physically intimate with Taylor to him. Monte thinks that Taylor is on a power trip. That's good for Turner.

Monte talks to Taylor while she's in the bath. He tells her that she was condescending to him and then, by taking off the headphones he had on, was rude. She apologizes. He tells her that she was rude and cold. He says he has a low tolerance for disrespect.

So, they're over. Really? Hmm.

Jury house segment. Terrance arrives. He tells them it's a double and Michael arrives. They are shocked. Terrance gives Monte the credit for getting Michael out. Then Alyssa arrives. The jury seems most impressed with Monte. Alyssa told them Taylor was sleeping in Monte's HOH room. Joseph looked crushed at that news.

A taped segment has them gathering in the living room. They each get videos from loved ones. Taylor's mother and grandmother. Monte's father. Turner's mother and girlfriend Megan. Brittany's husband.

Brittany is trying her mojo on Monte. She tries to make him think that she would be better for his game than Turner. She thinks that she and Turner are about the same (good) at mental comps, but he is better physically than she is. Monte's DR bit makes it sound like he's seriously thinking of taking Brittany ... so he probably isn't!

To the living room for the veto meeting. 

Brittany - Love to shout-outs. Opportunity to make game changing move by evicting Turner. 

Turner - Shout-outs. I would be bamboozled if you think Brittany is better for your game.

Monte votes to evict ... Brittany.

She handles it well. She tells Julie she would have crushed it against Monte at the end. (Yeah, right.) Julie asks how she feels about Michael as she will be seeing him in jury. She says she would love to be friends but has a lot of questions for him.

Julie has the three gather together in the living room. Julie tells them the live season finale is Sunday, three days away.

The talk with the Cookout alliance from last year is next.

And, there they are. Julie mentions their loyalty to each other and ask them about the alliances they saw this year. They seem to want to see a Taylor/Turner final two.

The Favorite Houseguest will get $50,000 this year and there's more. Winner also receives a cruise for two (promo for The Real Love Boat series). Go to cbs.com/bbvote to vote.

Friday at 8PM ET/PT, special show. Finale two-hours on Sunday night.
