BB25: Nominations Today Live Feeds - Sept. 29

 

Cameron does his hair.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Snaky McSnakefaces:

• As you know from my last post, Cameron won HOH because, well, of course he did.
• While he has schmoozed most of the house, we all know that the first time he can get got, he will get got.
• So, he's back into the having to win competitions to remain.
• However, he did make jury by winning this HOH. The 30-something year old father kept going on about how he needed that jury stipend money. 
• Well, he has it now.
• He schmoozed talked to all between last night and earlier today.
• Continuing the practice they are doing this season (that I thought was not allowed), he went and told Felicia he thought she was "too persuasive" to have in the jury house and he needed to get her out before jury.
• She tried to throw Cirie under the bus to him as the best persuader, but to no avail.
• While that is sort of consistent with what he's been saying for a few weeks now, although he termed it more along the lines of a bitter juror, I always thought the nominees couldn't be told before nominations.
• And I remember as early as Hisam's HOH, they've been telling them this season.
• Cameron plans to put Felicia up with Mecole.
• Right now, Bowie Jane is probably the safest one in the house. Bowie Jane might just smile and laugh her way to a win.
• Think about it. Bowie Jane IS a lawyer, so she must have smarts. Plus, looking at her performances in the Pressure Cooker and on the Wall, she can do comps ... she just doesn't want the win. She hasn't needed to win, nor the attention drawn by winning comps.
• I wanted to like Mecole and I do like her as a person. But, for someone who talks so much game ... her game isn't gaming!
• Cameron wants to work with Matt and Jag. That will last until it doesn't.
• Cameron does still have the weird cringy "father" leery bit going on with America.
• That doesn't bode too well for Cory. I can't see the thruple going on there. Ew.
• Blue, while in with Matt and Jag, seems very expendable.
• As for Blue and Cameron, they both told each other that they don't like each other. But, as long as their interests in the game align, it could work.
• Oh ... what about Cirie?
• She's just so darn likable. And now she won't really have anyone in the game ... right? What kind of threat could she be?
• Heh.
• The feeds have been blocked a while now for the nominations.
• I don't expect any surprises.
• And I got none except the backyard is open.
• Felicia and Mecole are on the block.
• Mecole is trying to do deep breathing and pep-talking herself in the storage room.

Surrounded by liars! Well, it IS BB.

Bowie Jane smiles on.

The Bible probably won't save Felicia.

Maybe I can be incognito without the pink cap.

BB25: Live Feeds HOH Bulletin - Sept. 29

 

Well, that took forever. The feeds were blocked for the duration of the West Coast airing of the show and beyond.

Then nobody was wearing the HOH key and no one was talking about it. 

Now they are. Some kind of puzzle? Anyway, seems like Cameron won it again. I would guess it's BYE, FELICIA if he has his way.

BB25: Live Undead Eviction Show Blog Party - Sept. 28

 

Tonight either Zombie Jared or Zombie Cameron will leave the house once again. Hopefully, this time for good. They have been competing in that fill the teeter-totter shovel with 30 balls (whatever) and, although in real life it has been wrapped up, we will see the end of that tonight. The winner of that (please no live feeds content in comments!) will choose to either do a puzzle himself or pass on the puzzle hoping the other zombie can't complete it. Winner of the puzzle is "resurrected." Blech.

Oh, the show is also messing with us regarding the schedule for the live shows! Tonight is back to 9PM ET/PT, then next week it's back to 8PM ET/PT. Argh!

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?

Skipping Previously On, this is Julie tonight all pretty in pink ... thank goodness the bob hairstyle is gone.

Okay, we're back to Round Two in which Cameron has the lead by four balls. We are now starting the final round of the teeter-totter challenge for the Zombie Boyz. Jared has to reset. Then he has to reset again. Cameron has one ball to go. CAMERON WINS THE ROUND!

He now has the power to control his own fate. He can play in the competition on the live show or make Jared play in it. Jared is teary.

It's after the Resurrection Rumble. Cameron has to decide whether or not he will play. He wants to create a future inside the house. Cirie is down about Jared losing the Rumble. She tries to tell Jared to shake it off. Cory is happy about Cameron probably staying rather than Jared. Meanwhile, Jared is in tears with Felicia and Cirie. Felicia tells him that he should think about what his Mom would say to him now. Heh.

Cameron talks to Jag about working with him and Matt ... one week of trust and see what he can do about it. Jag tells us that he's open to working with Cameron. Jag and Matt say that if Jared is gone, Blue would work with them.

Ew. A Cory/America segment with them both in the shower to scare Felicia. It's Cory's birthday (which is actually tomorrow, Friday). He wants to make a deal with Mecole and Felicia. Mecole makes the deal but tells us she knows she can beat them. Felicia and Cory talk. Matt picks up on it and knows Cory is hiding his face so he can't read his lips. Felicia agrees to work with them. Matt catches them and tells Jag/Blue.

Are we ever going to find out which "zombie" returns?

Jared talks to Cameron asking if he will do the final part. Cameron tells him he plans to play the final part tonight.

Julie tells us Cam has not seen the competition. Jared and Cam are in the backyard. Julie will show them how the comp works. Zombie board, pulleys to maneuver a ball up the comp. It's timed. Cam decides to do it himself.

Finally back after several commercials. Cameron is ready to do the Do Or Die Comp. Three minutes. The others are watching inside on their living room screen. With 1.06 minutes left, he makes it back in the house! Jared has to go in, say goodbye and walk out the front door.

Hugs, hugs, hugs. He's out with Julie now. Jared and Cam's Memory Wall un-zombies them, Jared turns grey. Into more commercials.

Back to the interview. He's smiling. I can only hope he won't call her Bro. He hopes his mother does amazing and gets teary about it. Okay, outright tears. Julie mentions that he told Blue about the secret. He cries more. He thinks Cirie can only trust Blue. Goodbye messages time. America is happy. Cory is okay. Blue calls him Pooh Bear and a trip to Italy. Cirie is proud of him, will get Cory for him, loves him. He cries more.

Back to Julie talking to the houseguests. She congratulates Cameron. Some good news -- Scary Week over. Because of the twist, all are eligible to compete in HOH including Cory, the last HOH. Sunday at 10PM for HOH, Tuesday at 8PM Veto show.

BB25: Zombie Feeds into Thursday - Sept. 28

 

People either love or hate America

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Aimless Aardvarks:

• Yep, still boring!
• Yep, still all talk about what that one or this one will do if he/she wins HOH.
• The main targets in talks seem to be Felicia, America and/or Cory or Jag with the occasional Matt.
• Cam wants to target Felicia pre-jury because he thinks she will be a bitter juror.
• Cameron is still wanting to do the puzzle tonight that, if he completes in time, gets him "resurrected" into the house.
• That is even though both he and Jared have been allowed to be there as normal albeit with different clothes this past week and never left the house!
• They are speculating whether Cameron will be able to see the puzzle before accepting the challenge or not.
• They don't really know.
• Neither do I.
• They are acting pretty much like Jared is a Dead Zombie Walking even though Jared is trying to talk as much game as he can.
• Oh. And Jared is giving others game advice. Like he knows about the game!
• Most are talking playing with Cam but they all want him out again already even though he technically isn't in!
• At least tonight this mess will be over.

Matt has picked up saying "Bro." Stop that!

And Bowie Jane keeps on smiling.

The piggy suit gets around.

What? No in bed with Jared?

The Amazing Race 35: Season Premiere Blog Party!

 

Don't forget to sign up for the blog pool!

The link to the blog pool sign up is right here. Please sign up ONLY on that post, not this one! The cut-off is Friday but do it now! There are supposed to be no non-Philimination legs this season, so one team should be out tonight. That team will not be in the blog pool. However, there will be no reassignments with the boot next week!

For a cheat sheet with photos and names of the teams, check out this post of mine! Oh ... and deaf people are making a mark on reality TV this year. Rob, the father on the father/son team of Rob/Corey, is deaf. TAR has not had a deaf contestant since Season 14.

I will be live blogging the action the best I can as the show airs here on the East Coast. I say the best I can because it's hard to keep track with new teams AND we even have two more teams than usual this season! They will no longer have the Covid-era private jet and will have to scramble at airports again. Woohoo! As usual, the real party is in the comments area -- I hope to see you there!

The teams start off at the Hollywood sign (its 100th birthday). Like with Survivor, we're getting sound bites from the different teams. Phil welcomes them to Hollywood. Each team introduces themselves. He tells them no non-elims. Express Pass will allow them to skip a challenge. U-Turns are a mandatory vote to slow down another team. Airports are back in play. Clues are inside the cars down the hill. They have to get to the Biltmore Hotel.

We're getting bits and pieces of each team.

Joe and Ian are the first to the Biltmore Hotel. Roadblock, on a tightrope high above the city, unscramble the clue to the next destination, Derek and Claire will give them the clue, two flights, six teams on the first one, 90 minutes apart.

Joe first at the clue. Other teams are arriving to the tightrope. Greg sees of and gets it. He thinks City of ... Angels and gets the clue. They have to go the LAX and fly to Bangkok, Thailand. Heh, in a hearing group all working together on the clue, Rob gets it alone.

The teams are arriving at LAX. It turns out Greg of brothers Greg and John has been learning sign language. He can communicate with Rob. So, a bond is forming with those teams. Six teams have lined up for tickets and more are arriving. Uh-oh, the second flight is getting tickets.

14-hour flight connecting through Taipei before getting to Bangkok, first clue is at the giant Buddha. Taxis. Victor, husband of Jocelyn, speaks Laotian which is similar to Thai and can communicate with the driver.

Morgan/Lena (sisters) first to clue, have to travel by boat and tuk-tuk. Express Pass chance. Clear a plate of exotic fried insects ... EACH. Ew. They are having issues with it. (But doing better than I would do!) Another team decided not to try when they saw the bugs. Rob and Corey head there. Lena has ONE bug more! And we go to commercial. They finish. Morgan/Lena have the Express Pass.

Some teams are still thinking of trying the Ezpress Pass. Others are boarding the marked river boat. Meanwhile, the second plane with seven teams is arriving. 

The first teams are getting into the tuk-tuks. Jocelyn/Victor Detour clue first. Sword Play, 30 seconds of a routine. Spa Day, painful (?) massage. Only five pairs of therapists. If you stop, you must go to end of line. Malaina and Andrea are the only ones going for Sword Play so far. Eep, Todd and Ashlie had to start over on the massage because he inadvertently stopped the masseuse.

Malaina and Andrea are having trouble with the Sword Play as they practiced with wooden sticks, not real swords. They give up and go to the massage.

Jocelyn/Victor through the massage first followed by Corey/Rob. It's a race to the Pit Stop for them at a Temple.

Pit Stop Order:

1. Jocelyn/Victor, trip to Patagonia won.

2. Corey/Rob

3. Greg/John

4. Morgan/Lena

5. Todd/Ashlie

6. Steve/Anna Leigh

7. Joel/Garrett

8. Liam/Yeremi

9. Joe/Ian

10. Malaina/Andrea?

11. Robbin/Chelsea? (10 and 11 may be reversed)

12. Elizabeth/Iliana

13. Alexandra/Sheridan - Philiminated
