BB25: Live Feeds Friday, Nominations - Oct. 27

 

I do NOT want to know what is in the pockets!

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Dastardly Deception:

  • Now, we all heard Matt take Cirie aside at the end of the live show. "You will never touch the block."
  • Tsk, tsk.
  • After the live feeds returned last night, when Matt was with Bowie Jane and Jag, he said he would probably have to put Felicia and Cirie on the block.
  • Oh, the fact Felicia would go up should go without saying.
  • Since we know he's too scared to put Jag up (which would be the smart game strategy move -- or at least consider a backdoor), he only has three to choose from.
  • Bowie Jane, Cirie and Felicia.
  • Neither Bowie Jane nor Cirie have been on the block.
  • Felicia has been on the block more often than not.
  • It's Jag who has more of a relationship with Bowie Jane than Matt.
  • It's Matt who has more of a relationship with Cirie than Jag.
  • Will Matt just acquiesce and do what Jag wants? Or will he think of his own game?
  • Matt's own game plan is that he thinks he can beat Cirie in a final two. 
  • No one thinks they can beat Jag in a final two. 
  • Well, maybe Felicia does but she carries old food around in her pockets. Nuff said!
  • In Matt's HOH room, his letter was from Reilly. Now he's in love again.
  • There was also a photo of his mother with Reilly.
  • Bowie Jane and Matt have talked about Jag having to go much as Cirie and Matt have talked about it.
  • If Jag were to go on the block (not likely), he is the Veto King this season. Even if he's not on the block, statistically he's most likely to win the veto.
  • Hmm.
  • If I were Matt, I would be tempted to put Bowie Jane and Felicia on the block, keeping my promise to Cirie. If those noms remained the same, chances are Felicia would get evicted.
  • But I'm not Matt. He seems like he will put Felicia and Cirie on the block. With them up, it's a toss-up but Cirie would probably be voted out.
  • He's been conspiring with Bowie Jane. Sigh.
  • Matt does want Felicia out instead of Cirie, but it's Bowie Jane and Jag voting.
  • I'm playing a waiting game for the nominations to be made.
  • Then I will post this.
  • The feeds returned to them all playing pool in the yard.
  • Hmm. The yard should probably be closing down for prep for tomorrow's POV comp.
  • No clue other than what we already know was supposed to go down for the noms.
  • Confirmed -- Cirie and Felicia are on the block.

And Bowie Jane kept on smiling.

Jag is happy for his Minutefriend.

Reilly loves me!

Bowie Jane will have no jury votes.


BB25: Live Feeds - New HOH Winner - Oct. 27

 

And Bowie Jane kept smiling.

The live feeds returned at past 1:30AM ET, well past the end of the west coast "live show" airing.

Matt is the new HOH. 

About time Matt won an HOH!

BB25: Live Double Eviction Show Blog Party - Oct. 26

 

Good evening! Tonight, either Blue or America will get the boot! Then we have the whirlwind of an entire week done in a night with a Head of Household comp, a veto comp and then two more will be on the block and one of them will get the boot! (And I'm not talking the Have Not Room door boot!)

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!

But first ... let's get that blog pool posted. Lifeguard SueGee updated the blog pool and here's where we stand going into tonight's show:

Felicia - Dr Celine, Auntie Leigh, NoraM, T-Town Chick
America - Andi, Joanne Victoria, Willie J, Caela
Bowie Jane - Jasonuwp, Sally, Rachel C, Jessica U, Joyce Johnson
Cirie - Petals, Janice, Krysta, RJM in SC, Skyriverblue
Matt - Brenda, Helenann2k, Brent McKee, Chrob61
Jag - Barbara W, Jackie, Donna in Alabama, Mary C
Blue - monty924, Judi Sweeney, Jennifer, Don

JURY
Cameron
Cory

Hamster watchers ready?

14 days left in the house.

Julie's outfit for the double eviction

Sitting through the Previously on and all the I must win bits.

Cirie would like to see Blue to stay as she doubts Blue would ever target her. She proposes a split vote to Felicia. Fe does not agree and thinks that Cirie is doing it for jury votes. Felicia wakes up Jag in the HOH room. She thinks Jag must start thinking of her for the final two -- then she throws both Matt and Cirie under the bus, telling Jag they were talking about when to take him out.

Jag is all confused as to whether it's the truth or not. Now, Cirie did tell Felicia in confidence that Matt said at some point Jag would have to go. Matt and Cirie are talking about it but not with Felicia. Cirie doesn't want to wait until the final four like Matt wants.

To the living room. Julie tells them about the double. And Bowie Jane smiled.
America - Shout outs, jokes about Jag being a menace. She will set them free from Jag's evil wrath.
Blue - Shout outs in Korean and English, loves all, I'm Kitty Kitty Purr. 

Blue is all dressed up, America is in comp clothes. Hmm.

The votes to evict:
Matt - Blue
Bowie Jane - Blue
Cirie - Blue
Felicia - Blue

Bye-bye Blue. She was not surprised. Another blindside not a blindside, par for the course this season. Julie mentions she was told just before the show. She feels betrayed by Jag and Matt.

HOH Comp time. In booths in the backyard. Jag cannot play. ScrambleVerse, three franchises dominate. Triple Feature. Seven rounds. Shown three BB movie posters, question about poster. A, B or C answers.
1. All wrong
2. Felicia wrong
3. Cirie ONLY one right
4. Cirie and Bowie Jane get points
5. Matt and Felicia get a point
6. Matt and Bowie Jane get a point
7. Only Cirie doesn't get a point.

Tiebreaker between Matt and Bowie Jane.
In seconds, superhero training academy part one last.
Matt 10,000 BJ 5400
Bowie Jane is HOH!

To the living room. Bowie Jane nominates Felicia and America.

Veto comp time!
Making candy cola.


It's a bit like clown shoe, must get four candies on pole

MATT WINS THE POWER OF VETO!

America begs him to save her. Felicia comes in, they hug. Jag comes in. Bowie comes in Cirie comes in. Looks like he will probably leave the noms the same. But we will see.

To the living room. Matt does NOT use the veto. America and Felicia remain on the block.

America - Now she is nervous, apologizes to Jag for her joke speech.
Felicia - Trusting and believing, mustard seed will carry me further.

The votes to evict:
Cirie - America 
Jag - America
Matt- America 

Unanimous, America goes on to jury. Tears but hugs. The final five go crazy celebrating. She composes herself pretty well for the Julie interview.

BB25: Live Feeds into Thursday - Oct. 26

 

And Bowie Jane kept on smiling.

Here's the latest from inside that Big Brother House of Wasted Wisdom:

  • The plan remains the same -- Blue should be evicted tonight.
  • The only question is whether it will be unanimous or 3-1 vote.
  • Oh, wait. 
  • There is another question ... should they tell Blue this morning, just before the live show or ...?
  • They are expecting a double eviction tonight.
  • No, production did not tell them.
  • They just know with the numbers and the finale date one must be done and there is never a double cutting into the final four.
  • Felicia's antics as of late have now put a target on her back for eviction in the double.
  • That is, if no one can get Jag.
  • Although Jag might suspect that he will be targeted, just about everyone (including Matt) know he has to get the boot at the first opportunity they have.
  • Otherwise, if he gets to the end, with all the comp wins, he will stand a good chance of winning it all.
  • Of course, that decision would be made on comp wins when his strategy and people skills are lacking.
  • But this crowd seems to only think comps.
  • We know if America, who is on the target list for the second eviction tonight, wins HOH, she will put Matt and Jag on the block.
  • I guess we play a game of wait and see.
  • Laters!

He should be very worried.

Her actions have now put a target on her back.

Should they tell her? 

Will go with the house vote.

The Amazing Race 35: Yessir, the Pink City - Ep. 5 - Blog Party

 


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

Lifeguard SueGee has graciously updated the blog pool and here's where we stand going into tonight's show:

Ashlie & Todd -- Dr Celine, NanaintheNW, SueGee
Greg & John -- Brent McKee, Jackie, Judi Sweeney
Joe & Ian -- Cookie Jar, Michelle, Pearl
Joel & Garrett -- ChicMc, Ethan, Willie J, Jasonuwp
Liam & Yeremi -- Andi, KathyB, monty924, Skyriverblue
Malaina & Andrea -- Cheryl in NC, CherylNY, Debbie
Morgan & Lena -- Bizaro22, Debbie in FL, Krysta
Robbin & Chelsea -- Indiana Jane, KelseyNY, MikesGirl
Rob & Corey -- marthalight, PDX Granny, Sharon N
Steve & Anna Leigh -- David, Donna in FL, Glenn Allen

Are you ready? Let's GO!

Skipping through the Previously On segment.

Robbin and Chelsea are the first to get the clue to fly to India. They are going to a city nicknamed the Pink City, Jaipur. All teams are on the same flight.

Once in Jaipur, the teams all race to marked taxis to head to the Amber Palace. Pick up a bundle of sugar cane, carry it up to somewhere to get the next clue. Since they were at a bunching point, anyone can get ahead on this one.

At the palace there is a walking band and elephant in costume, as well as painted. (That would never fly here.) Teams arrive and get their bundles of cane. 

Roadblock - Who is feeling balanced? Pots of water balanced on head following a choreographed routine.


That's my blog pool random pick team in last place! Wah! All the teams are having trouble with this one. Anna Leigh made it through! Greg and John moved up to second place!


Teams will have a Detour decision ahead of them at a place with all kinds of small staircases leading to the water. The stairs look like an Escher etching!

ACK CBS NEW SPECIAL REPORT! Mass shooter in Lewiston Maine. Maybe more than 20 killed.

Greg/John are working with Morgan/Lena to get to the Detour clue.

Detour - Puppet All Dolled Up, make two puppets and make them dance. The Big Picture, wear costumes and imitate art in a mural or large painting. Uh-oh. Corey and Rob are the only ones left at the Roadblock!

Most of the teams seem to be choosing to do the Big Picture. Corey FINALLY made it through the Roadblock! At the puppet station there are camels all dressed up like they did to the elephants. Some of the bulls/cows they passed on their way there looked malnourished. You can tell they are no longer in Kansas!

Anna Leigh and Steve get through Puppet Theater first, taking their rickshaw to the next Pit Stop. Greg/John get through the Big Picture and are on their way. Uh-oh, the sisters change tasks after being at Big Picture for two hours.

Pit Stop Order:
1. Anna Leigh/Steve - Won $3,000 each
Phil warns them that there is a Mandatory U-Turn vote ahead.
2. Greg/John
3. Joel/Garrett
4. Andrea/Malaina
5. Todd/Ashlie
6. Corey/Rob
7. Robbin/Chelsea
8. Liam/Yeremi
9. Lena/Morgan
10. Joe/Ian -- Philiminated 

Out of the blog pool -- Cookie Jar, Michelle, Pearl
