BB25: Live Feeds into Sunday - Aug. 27

 

My mother is on the show.

Here's what's been happening inside that Big Brother House of Loose Lips Sinking Ships:

• First off, my apologies for originally posting that Cameron won the veto yesterday. Felicia and Cirie are to blame. They were saying he won, but apparently meaning that Red won and it might as well have been a Cameron win. Then I saw Red with the necklace.
• But they do have a point. Red winning is a Cameron win.
• The biggest news of the night is that Jared told Blue that his mother is in the house.
• Yep.
• She thinks it's Felicia because he said it. If she just LOOKED, she would see the family resemblance between Cirie and Jared!
• You don't have to be the brightest bulb to be a social influencer.
• Interesting ... Jared is using the fake last name of "Washington." Now, if Felicia is Denzel Washington's sister, it all makes sense!
• Bwahahahaha!
• Of course, I wouldn't think Blue could put two and two together with the name. She probably has no clue who Denzel even is!
• Stupid move on Jared's part, though.
• Remember, Felicia still does not know about Jared and Cirie -- only Izzy knows.
• Red and Cameron talked of their love for and trust in ... Cirie. Yep, both of those country boys have fallen hook, line and sinker for her act.
• BUT neither trust Felicia.
• A pretty solid four as of late is Cirie, Izzy, Felicia and Matt.
• After a night of being told this one said this and that one said that, the four decided that they should work to keep Jag and get Blue out.
• Now, had Cirie known about Jared's big mouth, she would have been even more determined to get Blue gone.
• There was also a rather interesting but kind of predictable loose lips incident.
• Predictable because it involved The Unreliables. You know, that "fake" alliance formed by Cory, Jag and America.
• "Can you keep this confidential?" "Nope, I'm an Unreliable! It's in the name!"
• Jag told Cirie of information which came to him via America via Cory.
• Now Cirie and company know that neither of those two can be trusted.
• While telling this might have played a small role in the changeover to keeping Jag over Blue, it isn't really the major reason.
• Due to the Jared/Blue showmance, both of them are a liability to the alliance.
• Jared without Blue would be forced to play the game and not be distracted by a showmance.
• To get Blue out of the door Cirie, Izzy, Felicia and Matt need one more vote. They can't depend on America and Cory. 
• So, they would need to turn either Jared or Bowie.
• Yep, issues are there. Bowie is getting closer and closer to Red and Cameron. Can she be trusted? 
• Oh, plus ... Felicia and Cirie really really don't like her.
• How about Jared? Lose Blue before jury? So, he couldn't even have a jury love bed with her if he goes? 
• Mama would have to do a lot of convincing to get him to give his showmance the boot.
• I personally would prefer Jag kept rather than Blue.
• But they never ask my opinion on these things.

Cory said that America said that Jared said ...

What should Mama Cirie do?

A two for one deal

Cory could be throwing himself under the bus.

Is anyone saying my name?

Trying to win Felicia over.

BB25: Live Feeds, PoV Comp Saturday - Aug. 26

 

Mama's Boy

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Adoptable Animals:

• Remember, Cam knows what he's doing.
• The Have Nots are indeed eating PB&J this week as a throwback to early seasons. To me, that would be the week I volunteer. 
• Now I wish the old food comps would return!
• The veto picks went down this morning. In addition to Cameron, Jag and Blue -- it's Red, Mecole and Jared.
• Cameron got Houseguest Choice and chose his best bromance bud Red. Blue actually drew Jared's chip from the bag.
• Izzy is dizzy because she's heard that if either of the nominees come off the block, she'll be the renom. 
• She's even suspicious about Cam choosing her to host the comp.
• Me? I'd prefer Jag win veto, come off the block, anyone else go up and Blue goes home.
• Of the two, Jag is Cameron's target.
• Jag is my blog pool hamster. I will admit that me drawing any player in my own blog pool means that person is doomed. Sorry, Jag. 
• Matt gave up his secret, although I would think they would all assume he could -- he told Jared he can read lips.
• He also told Jared that Cameron, Red and Bowie are working together they want him to work with them.
• But, Matt now has a soft spot for Cirie and I doubt that will change.
• Cameron thinks this week is supposed to be fun and chill.
• Um. Maybe for him, but no week is all fun and chill when people go on the block and get the boot. If that were the case, there would be no point to the show.
• The feeds were blocked at around 4PM EDT for the comp and right now I'm just waiting them out so I can post the winner.
• And waiting.
• And waiting.
• At a bit after 9PM EDT, the feeds came back.
• Cameron won veto.
• Sigh.
• Apparently, Jag ALMOST won but they weren't playing horseshoes.
• UPDATE: It was RED who won the veto, not Cameron.
• When the feeds returned after the comp, Cirie and company were saying Cameron won. However, they apparently were being sarcastic because they know whatever Cameron wants Red will do.
• But Red won the veto, not Cameron.

Loyal to Cirie now?

Do not put huge rollers in their hair.

She thinks she's such an influencer

Uh-oh. Blue has been an influence!

BB25: Live Feeds into Friday Evening, Nominations - Aug. 25

 

If you're Blue and you don't know where to go to
Why don't you go where fashion sits,
Puttin' on the ritz.

Due to my foolishness in blogging for more than 15 hours straight through the live show and the Pressure Cooker comp, this one is going to be a bit abbreviated. Here's a bit of what's been happening inside that Big Brother House of Up a Long Time Loons:

• As you know from my HOH comp post, Cameron won HOH when all was said and done.
• He's far from a favorite of mine, but I have to give him credit for hanging in there so long. He really, really wanted a photo (or more) of his little girl. And, he got them, breaking down into sobs after the others left his HOH reveal. I felt touched.
• But then I snapped back and came to reality!
• Reality TV, that is!
• I'm really surprised Mecole didn't win. As I watched the comp, she was the most rock solid until a fly attacked her and she let go of the button. At least, that's what it looked like happened to me.
• The prizes/bad schtuff for the comp that I know went like this: Jared unveiled the snakes, Cirie got a six-pack of beer, Izzy opened up the "music" which blared at the comp, Jag got rotten smelling perfume he has to spray, Blue got $1,000, Red got a home theater and year of Paramount+, America got a dinner party with three houseguests, Cory got Have Not with two hamsters of his choice (Bowie and Izzy volunteered), Matt got to open the box with flies to torment the comp -- they appeared dead, but it was just due to the cold and they came to life to torment, Bowie got a pressure cooker.
• I'm not sure what the others got.
• There was talk of the Have Nots having peanut butter and jelly sandwiches (like the old pre-slop days) but I don't know if they were just saying it or if it will happen.
• Cameron nominated Jag and Blue with a backdoor plan of Izzy if needed.
• And the band played on ...
• Laters!

I just want to make jury.

Matching Cam's nominee stats.

Let me tell you a story about HOH ...

Looks like the Wicked Witch feets!

BB25: Live Feeds Pressure Cooker HOH Comp Updates - Aug. 24

 

The BB6 Pressure Cooker

Welcome everyone! Once the live feeds get going, I will constantly be updating this post with screen caps and commentary. Refresh the page to get the latest updates! Please join in with your own observations and be a part of the party we'll be having after hours in the comments section! Bring snacks and adult beverages, perhaps even coffee if the BB25 hamsters have any staying power.

All the times I post will be East Coast times. Any times on my screen caps are also EDT. Rules are: Finger on button, no sitting, no kneeling, can squat, no bathroom breaks, must wait for three to be eliminated to leave the enclosure, take numbered card when eliminated, last one remaining is the new HOH.

10:07PM no feeds yet.

10:19PM Feeds are on, all still in.

10:22PM - Felicia is in the house gathering snacks. It seems she is not allowed in the enclosure?

Cameron has one foot up on the bar. Hmm. 

Jared is doing the one foot up thing, too.

They are doing a whistle scat bit.

Cam looks like a clown without his hat on!

10:30PM - Looks like Felicia is preparing some sort of feast inside the kitchen. All still in.

Matt says he's in his own world.

10:35PM - Matt says he's in his own world. They can't see anything in the dark. We know he can't read lips in the dark. He can only hear if someone, especially on his left, speaks loudly.

10:39PM - All feeds go to Felicia in the kitchen for a minute. She's sorting all kinds of bags of food.

10:42PM - Cameron is NOT bald on top. They showed a close-up. It's a bandana.

10:51PM - Felicia is eating in the living room. The monitor is showing her the comp.

10:57PM - At about the one hour mark, all still in it. All bored. I'm bored. So far, nothing showering on them or anything. All just standing there holding their buttons down. No talking even for a while.

11:00PM - Into a quieter scat rhythm. Finally talking. Cirie took her hood down. They think they are at about 20 minutes. Felicia looks bored. Cory thinks Kaysar won the BB6 one. He did tell them the 14 hours right, though.

11:11PM - The a/c is on. Felicia is in the storage room. The light thing in the middle is swinging but they can't see it. Cam decides to tell a story. I will not bore people with the story.

11:15PM - They keep hearing something in the wall. They dismiss it and Cam's boring story continues. Felicia is back in the living room. I feel bad for both Matt and her in this comp. Heck, right now I feel bad for me. All feeds on Felicia now. She's talking to herself -- four more to jury.

11:18PM - Feeds go to adoptable animals. Prior to that it looked like Felicia was about to clean the shower.

11:30PM - Feeds still down. Maybe production didn't like Cam's boring story.

11:31PM - Feeds return - all four on Felicia watching the comp. Her screen is lighter than ours. Looks like all still in but hard to tell.

11:33PM - Wait. Feeds on comp now. Someone is out ... Cirie is out! Looks like Jared is out, too. It's lighter in there now. I'm also lightening the screen caps I post.

Cirie and Jared out when feeds came back on.

11:41PM - All feeds cut to Felicia. Ack, she left the living room and I can't watch on her screen!

11:42PM - Feeds blocked momentarily. Return. All still in except Jared and Cirie. We don't know which one went out first as the feeds were blocked when they were eliminated.

11:45PM - Cirie tells America not to use her shirt under her hand -- "That's what happened to me."

11:58PM - Two hours. Cirie, Jared out of the comp, all others remain. Felicia still snacking watching them on the living room monitor. She's making me feel all kinds of snacky. The lights just went out again.

12:00AM - Cold blasts of air are hitting them.

Live snakes in the middle. 

12:08AM - Izzy started making noises the scare them, then the cold air blasted a few times on them. Bowie can't stay still and is annoying me.

12:27AM - 2 1/2 hours in. No one out of the comp except Cirie and Jared -- they both seem very cold. Izzy bopping to a song in her head which is more entertaining than Bowie's continued movements. Red looks asleep while squatting. Cameron, Cory, Jag and Mecole look like rock solid. Blue looks a bit iffy at times as does America. Matt looks sleepy.

12:37AM - Lights back on.

Snakes with the lights on.

12:53AM - Cam starts another story, this one about Cory. I hope it's better than the last story. Short story, good. Now Cory is telling a story.

12:57AM - Three hour mark. Into a feeds block with the WBRB screen, not animals. All in the comp still except Cirie and Jared. None of the snakes are venomous. BB should set them loose. That would stop the boredom that Cam mentioned just before the feeds block.

1:01AM - Feeds returned. No one new out of the comp. Lights still on.

1:27AM - Three and a half hours in. No one new out of the comp. I swear Mecole hasn't moved at all except for her head. Red is standing but still looks asleep. BB needs to liven this group up!

1:37AM - In the dark again. Then into a feeds block without animals.

1:41AM - Feeds back. No changes, still in the dark. Cold air blasts a minute later. We need ACTION!

1:54AM - Feeds cut at near the four hour mark, then return almost immediately. Izzy out while bopping right before the feed cut again!

1:59AM - Four hour mark. Izzy, Cirie and Jared (the Fields family minus adopted son Matt) out. Feeds still blocked.

2:02AM - Feeds came back for about a minute. Izzy, Cirie, and Jared gone from the room. Kaysar was on a screen in the room. Then strobe lights started and odd not music noise. It's kind of like that techno club music a bit ... or an MRI with echoes.

2:06AM - The out of the comp three are in the house with Felicia.

2:11AM - Lights came back on with a spotlight on the snake enclosure. "Music" still playing. In the house Jared is telling Cirie and Izzy that Hisam told him to never trust Cirie and Felicia.

2:14AM - Music stopped and all feeds went to the house for a moment, then back to the comp.

2:24AM - Now all four feeds on the house hamsters. The are in the living room, the rest are still in the comp.

2:25AM - Feeds back to the comp, lights still on. The house discussion is largely about not trusting Bowie Jane. Cirie is ticked at Jared not sharing intel from others concerning them in a timely manner.

3:15AM - Gah. My internet went down. All still in the comp except for Cirie, Jared and Izzy.

Blogger issues! Trouble updating. Check comments if no recent updates here.

3:56AM - Six hours in. All still in the comp except for Cirie, Jared and Izzy.

More after the page break --

BB25: Live Eviction Show Live Blogged Blog Party - Aug. 24

 

Good evening! Tonight either Hisam or Cameron will get the boot! I'm sure that the show editing will try to deceive us ... as it always does. Will there be a blindside? Will the evicted hamster already know his imminent demise? Maybe. I guess we'll see.

CBS Big Brother has announced that the epic return of the 'Pressure Cooker' competition will indeed air on the live feeds. I took a nap and will be posting a constantly updated HOH endurance coverage post for it. Just refresh the blog right after the East Coast show airs (10PM ET, 7PM PT) to catch the post! I doubt we will see a 14-hour comp like we did in BB6. But, again ... we will see!

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

Hamster watchers ready?

Oh my, Julie is fluffy, ruffley and flowery tonight. We'll sit through the recap.

We pick up the action after the veto meeting. Julie tells us alliances have crumbled and new ones have formed. Can Hisam handle the truth? Cameron thinks he's safe. Matt knows Hisam was campaigning against him and it will also be revenge for Reilly.

Hisam is feeling hurt. He says he is a king and should fight for himself. Felicia tells him she had an opportunity that she will probably never get again. He feels betrayed and looks confused and hurt. He tells her he's moving through the hurt. He tells us the move is stupid.

Then he talks with Izzy. He tells her he knows Cirie and her both know. Izzy tells him that she feels sick and just did her job to make him feel comfortable. She will not be told what to do and be called a leftover. She tells him that America said he said he was stuck with them.

He tells us it was a mistake and it wasn't his intention to change sides. He does admit to Izzy he was wrong. He tells us he betrayed them and needs to find a way to stay in the game.

Julie hints at a flip before we go into commercial.

Julie tells us Hisam's choices are to seek revenge or seek redemption. He tells us they are his family and he wants to work with them. He will try to earn their forgiveness and trust. He starts making his rounds with Felicia. She tells him he has some time to try to change people's minds. But she tells us "you reap what you sow."

So, the rounds have started. First Izzy. Family, have mercy, forgive me, give me a chance to be better, will let bygones be bygones. Izzy does feel bad. She accepts their apology and he asks for a hug. Then it's on to Cirie. Same talk with her. She asks about revenge. He knows if he stays, he will be the biggest target in the house. Cirie tells us teary-eyed that she has to take it into consideration ... he's redeemable.

Now Felicia, Cirie and Izzy are talking about maybe sending Cameron home instead. They decide to talk to Hisam. Felicia tells him she needs to know he won't come after her. They hug. Izzy suggests a new start. He tells us he is fiercely loyal and fiercely protective, will make sure they are protected and loyal. The flip suggestion is on. The three have to look outside the Professors to make the flip work. They believe him. Cirie says flipping would alienate so many others in the house.

We're heading to the living room.

Cameron - Tells Hisam interesting week. Shout-out. Closer to all the HG, love you.

Hisam - Shout outs, time to reflect. Multiple mistakes. Asking to have kindness, generosity and loyalty. Always on your side.

Votes to evict --

Red - Hisam

Jag - Hisam

Bowie Jane - Hisam

Blue - Hisam

To commercial ...

Matt - Hisam

Cirie - Hisam

America - Hisam

Izzy - Hisam

Cory - Hisam

Jared - Hisam

Mecole - Hisam

Yep, another unanimous vote (with cause this time). Hisam is evicted. Fake hugs all around time. But he does seem a bit sincere, hugs Izzy, Felicia and Cirie a bit more than the others. He goes to the stage with his rather annoying ha-ha-ha-ha laugh. I don't know anyone who actually laughs by going ha-ha-ha. The Scary globe goes  red. Kaysar shows up. Tells them it's their turn for the Pressure Cooker, the ScaryVerse makes it even tougher, good luck, you'll need it.

Interview time. Ha-ha-ha. He thinks he trusted the wrong people. Ha-ha-ha. Julie says his HOH was referred to as a dictatorship. He says he wanted all of them to make it. He's a doctor. Listening to what people had to say, blinded. Julie tells him about Cirie/Jared. He didn't know and says it makes sense ... they look alike. He says good for them, hope they go to the end. He thinks they are doing a good job. Goodbye messages from Cirie, Izzy, Matt, Blue. Matt's wasn't really nice, a three strikes bit but polite. To me, Blue was much more rude than need be.

We will get an America's Vote. Comic-Verse, one hamster gets a super power, top four compete, power is to save one evicted hamster (not ones already out). It will come to fruition next Thursday.

The comp is starting. They are in a large enclosure - "Revenge of the Pressure Cooker" -- finger on button, no sitting, no kneeling, can swat, can only leave box when three are out. They each have to take a numbered card on the way out, some are good, some bad. It's dark and we go to a night vision cam.
