BB25: HOH Show Blog Party - Aug. 20

 

Good evening! I guess we can totally forget the idea of BB ever having the HOH comp on the Thursday live show ever again. They have made it the Sunday show regular fodder. I guess that does give them something better than the filler stuff they used to show on Sunday nights. But at least show the comps on the live feeds as they go down after the live show!

That aside ... I will be live blogging this show, constantly updating this entry as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest updates! As always, the real party is in the comments area. I hope to see you there!

Let's start off with a recap! I guess the show is getting what they want -- a showmance segment is expected.

We pick up the new action after Reilly's Memory Wall photo went grey. There's a movement to get Hisam out with Cameron leading the charge. Cirie thinks it's great that it would be Cameron with the blood on his hands. Blue is crying to us about Reilly leaving. Now Jag, but no tears. We do see Reilly telling her alliance to vote with the house and not risk their games for her.

She's gone and Matt cries. Jag and Blue are with him but can't do much to console him.

Hisam is all dressed up like a bad salesman to host the HOH comp. A bunch of large noses are in the yard. The comp is Snot a Winner from the Humiliverse. It's one of the crap shoot type comps having them roll a ball and eventually hit a number. Two lowest are Have Nots.

Matt 10. Cory 20. Mecole 27. Two fives in a row, one America, the other Red. Cirie 29. Izzy 45. Felicia 53. Jag ... into commercial ... 37. Blue 12. Cameron 27. Jared 42. Bowie Jane 48.

FELICIA WINS THE HOH COMP!

Red, America and Matt are Have Nots for the two lowest scores. Felicia has to, when called, take snot showers, each time choosing someone to go with her. First snot, green slime and she chose Bowie.

Blue seems to be crying to us over nothing. Hisam is sure he's safe this week and feels amazing! Matt and America talk -- they both think they are probably safe this week. More tears from Matt about Reilly. He tells us he's not sure where he stands with Felicia.

Izzy tells us it should be a backdoor plan and Cirie confirms it. Cirie, Izzy and Felicia talk in the HOH Room - we saw no HOH room reveal or letter from home or anything. Felicia is considering the backdoor Hisam but she doesn't want the HOHship to come back to bite her.

More snotting. This time she brings Blue. Izzy next. Jared. 3:05AM -- Jag. Matt. They all have to watch from the stands. Hisam.

Hisam talks to Felicia in the HOH. He tells her he wants Jag out. She tells him she was thinking Cameron. He tells her Jag is aligned with Matt and Blue -- Matt should be put up with him.

Jared and Blue are flirting. Jared tells us he can't see himself showmancing just yet ... but. Definitely a flirtmance. He tells us she's bluetiful. 

Felicia talks to Jag, telling him she needs him and Cameron to be the pawns. Jag is worried. He knows pawns can go home. Felicia tells him she needs Jag to be comfortable. He would be comfortable with Jag on the block.

Matt is talking to Cirie and Izzy. They are getting to know each other. He tells us it was good to talk to them about his disability. Cirie tells us Matt is educating her about deafness and Matt himself.

Cameron's turn in the HOH room to talk to Felicia. She tells him that she wants to backdoor Hisam and would like to use him as a pawn and to try to win the Veto. Felicia tells us their hope is that Cam will win the veto.

Time for the Nominations Ceremony. And, of course, it's Snot-o'clock. Cory has to go with her. That's the last one, punishment over. In slime, she has to go through with the ceremony. She nominates Jag, then Cameron. She says they had court today, it was in session and thank you all for attending. She tells us again the plan is to Backdoor Hisam.

Both nominees vow to win and want Hisam gone. Hisam tells us he doesn't need to win any comps right now and feels safe.

BB25: Live Feeds into Sunday Morning - Aug. 20

 

Sometimes life is a chicken playing pool.

My head hurts. Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Chaos Critters:

• If you didn't catch my last live feeds update, Jag won the Power of Veto.
• We all know he will take himself off the block.
• Then there's that big Blindside Hisam that will kick in.
• After all, everyone in the house except Hisam is in on it. It's all come coming to fruition just as planned!
• Scratch that plan. That car crashed. Think of last week, rinse and repeat.
• Wait, let's put that plan right back up there. Maybe if we throw it at the wall, it'll stick!
• Yep, you got it.
• Like last week but even earlier as now it's all about the renom, not the actual vote.
• Red should go up! No, Blue should go up! Let's put America up! Is Meme still on our side? Will America and Meme (Mecole) flip to that other side? How about Bowie? What's that Cory up to now? 
• Felicia plans to tell Hisam that they spread the blindside story to see who talked.
• It's outright dizzying. I think I'm in some kind of sensory overload here.
• The latest seems to be back to Blindside Hisam. That, mind you, is subject to change at any moment. Or not.
• About the only one not on the Cirie/Felicia side who hasn't been a serious option of theirs for renom is Matt. They really like him.
• Plus, Matt, hearing issue put aside, is very unfamiliar with the game itself and just seems like a very nice guy.
• Hisam remains oblivious to all of this going on and remains in his Nice Guy persona. (Unlike his Power Guy persona.)
• In other news, like Felicia's sliming showers HOH punishment, Jag has a chicken suit punishment for winning Power of Veto.
• Jared is still playing his "I have a secret" bit while flirting with Blue.
• Cirie thinks that Blue is playing Jared and might be off of it now because he declined kissing her due to all the cameras.
• Me? I think it's a dangerous thing for him and eventually he will tell her about Cirie.
• Whose game would that blow? Probably more Cirie's than his own.
• One of the interesting things they discussed is the lack of BB supplying them alcohol this year. While Jared was a bit wrong telling Blue that BB used to give alcohol each week after the live show -- wrong as they go into HOH comp -- he's right that they would get it.
• Now, so far, only in the HOH basket there is alcohol. Last week, since Hisam doesn't drink, he gave it all away to others.
• Maybe production thinks if they mix alcohol into this mess, they will all have motion sickness.
• Anyway ... in case I made you dizzy and confused reporting on the dizziness and confusion in the house ... the latest plan at the moment is back to Blindside Hisam.
• If so, Felicia might even use Hisam's own words when nominating him. 
• In his constant push to have Matt be the target, he told Izzy, "Why get a knight out when you can get a king?"
• We have a day to go before the veto meeting, so the plan might change 423 times between now and then.

We need to get Matt out.

Matt is endearing himself with Cirie.

No way will you go on the block, Matt!

Will she flip sides?

Too many know. We need to stick to the plan.

BB25: Live Feeds - We Have a Veto Winner - Aug. 19

 

The live feeds were blocked to both the veto picks and the comp.

Veto players were Felicia, Jag and Cameron with picks of Cory, Izzy and Red. Bowie hosted.

When the feeds returned after the comp, Jag was wearing the veto necklace and a big Santa hat over his turban. He was all gooey and took an outdoor shower. The plan is in motion.

Showering off the goo

BB25: Live Feeds into Saturday - Aug. 19

 

I sense danger ahead ... maybe.

Good morning! What are those Rascally Rabbits up to inside the Big Brother House? Here goes:

• Okay, now every single person except Hisam knows of the Backdoor Hisam plan.
• Y'see, Cameron couldn't resist telling Red, the only one beside Hisam who wasn't in on it, the plan.
• Red told him he wanted to bring it up to Felicia.
• No! No! Cameron told him to keep it to himself.
• But what if I suggested the idea to Felicia to see how she reacts? 
• No! No! Just leave it alone!
• But could Red leave it alone?
• Nope.
• He was talking to Bowie (who has been seen more in the last few days than in the last few weeks) and told her he really wanted to talk to Felicia because he felt like something was going on and he wasn't in on it.
• Bowie ran to Izzy, then Felicia to warn her.
• So, the talk went down.
• As they talked, with both Bowie and Cirie in the room, Felicia told him her plan was to evict Jag. If Jag or he (Cameron) came off the block, it would be Matt on the block.
• Red kept talking and suggested that this could be the opportunity to backdoor someone ... someone the whole house would go for.
• That was enough for Felicia to suggest Hisam.
• Red was all over that suggestion and acted all gung-ho.
• He said that Hisam was NOT in the room when the original Professors started but he (Red) was.
• He suggested bringing in Cameron in the Professors to replace Hisam. Um. Er. He still has no clue that if all doesn't work out, it will be Cameron going home instead of Jag.
• By the way, Red's hillbilly accent all but disappears unless he's playing his persona for the camera or to entertain others.
• Will Red not tell Hisam?
• I think he just might keep the secret. If he's thinking long term, Hisam is so good at comps and is a huge threat. Plus, he thinks he has the Professors plus side alliances.
• Actually, he is on the short list for eviction with many in the house, both major sides.
• I'm not sure that evicting Hisam will bring both sides of the house together as much as some of the hamsters think it will. But most are saying now that that's one goal and mini-alliances between camps are indeed forming. Will they last? I just don't know.
• Meanwhile, Hisam is as happy as a clam at high tide -- when the predators are away. He thinks it's a smooth ride this week.
• He has told others he doesn't want to play for or win the veto and feels he needs to back off winning comps for a bit. He is sure Jag will be voted out or Matt will be a replacement nomination and he will be evicted.
• Everyone wants him to keep thinking that. They need him to think that for the plan to come to fruition.
• The problem I see with the plan, other than a possible veto win by Hisam, is that too many people know and there is too much time to keep it secret. Of course, by after the Monday veto meeting if all goes down, all will be in the open. That should be very entertaining!
• In other secrets news -- Jared and Blue.
• They are getting closer and closer.
• Jared told her he has a secret but can't say it all right now. Hmm.
• Now, to his credit, he did lie in the bits he told her.
• He told her his mother lived in CT, his Pops in NJ. That much may be true. I really don't know the status of Cirie and his father.
• He went on to tell her he has 11 brothers and mentioned at least one sister. As far as I know, he has two brothers in real life, no sisters.
• Then he made comments about knowing what the aftermath of being on a game show like this would be ... as he was on one before. But then he cut off saying he can't say any more about it.
• Oh my. If he's telling her all of this less than three weeks into the show, how is the secret about his mother going to last three months?
• There is a lot of buzz going around about the Jared/Blue showmance.
• Right now, I see them growing closer and closer talking. 
• Will it go physical? With Cirie in the house, I don't think he would dare. But, then again, he is indeed a grown man even if Cirie thinks of him as her little baby boy. I personally can't see the two of them clicking after the game unless he wins. An exterminator, unless he owns the company, doesn't really jibe with a social media influencer type too well.
• I do wish he would tell her to stop wearing that stupid roller on her bangs 24/7 except during comps and the live shows. I don't even see what effect it has on her bangs!
• That's the major excitement of the feeds into the time they all bedded down.
• The POV comp is today.
• When I know, you will know.
• Laters!

Blue ain't nothin' to him. Yeah, right.

Practicing his sad face.

Backdoor Hisam? Cool, Red!

I felt left out of the loop.

BB25: Live Feeds - Nominations are in! - Aug. 18

 

The live feeds were blocked for the nominations ceremony -- at least at the start. We had a hot mic session for the start of it all! They already had adoptable animals for a good half hour or more. I had the feeds minimized and volume low when I heard, "It's time for the nominations ceremony." Say what?!? Heh. Numerous invites from Felicia trying to get the line right telling them to gather for the nominations ceremony! The producer is telling them to check their mics. Maybe he should check his! He lectured them on mic placement, then WHAM. The theme music blared. So, we know the actual ceremony started at 6:45PM ET.

However, the feeds came back at 7:20PM ET. As expected, Felicia nominated Jag and Cameron. No fireworks, no fisticuffs. Hisam thinks just about everything is going as planned. Um, yeah, Hisam. We'll know more about going to plan after the veto comp tomorrow. Wink, wink.

If you are unaware of the plan, check out my last post.
