'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Show - 9/05 - East Coast Update - HOH Comp

Part 1 of a three-part HOH starts.

To the backyard. Winner of Round 1 to Final Round, remaining 2 compete for second part - winner of part two competes in final.

Mount HOH - volcano in backyard, climb up and grab key, stay on. Let go of key or feet touch mat, eliminated. Need good grips on keys. Smoke coming from volcano. Mike Boogie... "Julie, Remember Richard Hatch? Both of them have to take me to the finals." And he jumped. Erika and Janelle hanging on.

Mike sitting drinking water. He thinks that whoever wins has to take him, that they won't go together to the final. (At this point, I think he's wrong, though either stands a better chance against him because he'd never win first place.)

He's eliminated from this round. For someone with his move, he looks very worried.

The volcano is going to erupt. Commercial...

Janelle let one hand off the key and Julie snagged her. Erika won this round. I can sleep tonight. Janelle isn't happy. All look confused. Mike looks... intense.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Show - 9/05 - East Coast Update - After Eviction

Mike looks stunned. Erika and Janelle high-five. Mike looks so worried.

Julie asked the PuppetMaster how he lost control. He said he's not really surprised. He did the best he could. Did he underestimate Janelle? - No, he underestimated Erika. He thinks that Janelle and he had something very interesting together. Was he just flirting? It was a game - he's close to her and she's a great friend, but it's a game. He doesn't know how real it was. She was playing him as much as he was playing her. He thinks the girls will have to get Mike out as quick as possible if one of them wants to win.

He thinks Erika and Mike may or may not have a relationship. Goodbye messages. Erika - "The gig is up. I hope Howie doesn't hurt you badly." Janelle - "you talked me into a lot of things. I hope we will be friends."

Will is taking it fine.

Mike wasn't! :-)

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Show - 9/05 - East Coast Update - POV/Eviction

We know this part is taped... because we're omniscent. Yep.

When The Stars Align

Identical stars with clues, put HG faces from "goo pool" according to clues.
Final Golden Power of Veto. 10 faces, 10 side/clues of the star - one solution.

Erika said she had to win, Janelle said she had to win.

Will thought Alison's picture was Jennifer Aniston. Mike was missing a face and didn't realize it.

Janelle won - Erika wasn't far off. Will is smug. Erika says she'll have to appeal to Janelle's sense of logic. She starts right away. Mike is smug. Erika gave Janelle a "what if I gave my word on my mother" speech and said she needs money. Janelle thinks Mike is the biggest liar in the game, Erika looked at her and then Janelle said Will. Erika promised not to take Mike to the Final Two.

Now they're going into the tape from last night when Erika really exposes Chill Town (see my feeds posts). Will just told Mike that he (Will) will go home - Janelle didn't give any eye contact. Erika definitely swore on her mother to take Janelle to the final two.

Now they're discussing how they were both told they were part of Chill Town. It's dawning on both of them that both have been played all along by the guys.

Back to the live stuff --
Julie asked if the bonds will continue outside the house. Will and Janelle both think they'll be friends. Erika said she and Mike would be friends, too. Mike said that if he's in the F2, he'll see how her vote goes - implying Erika won't be there. Janelle is surprised Danielle didn't make it further.

Live Veto Meeting -
Janelle uses the veto to save herself. Mike had to put up Will. The vote is up to Janelle... commercial break. Of course.

Janelle votes to evict...

SHE'S DONE MAKING MISTAKES -- WILL IS EVICTED

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Show - 9/05 - East Coast Update - Sequester

They showed the Jury House. Yes, they had to evacuate due to Hurricane John and have a new location. We didn't see James' entry, but did see Howie fussing with Marcellas. When Danielle arrived, James went pale. Then George arrived. Howie acted like an idiot yelling at George (still mad that he was evicted, I guess). George stood his ground.

'BB7' - Tonight's Live Show Blogging

As important events occur on tonight's show as it airs here on the East Coast, I'll be posting East Coast updates. If you refresh the main blog page or click on the link for September posts on the right sidebar of the main page, that should bring up the most recent posts.

Rumors are that tonight's show will end with the start of the three-part HOH comp. Those same rumors say it's to be an endurance comp to start things off. If indeed that's the case, I'll hang with the comp and post updates as they occur throughout the night. (Hopefully they won't last all night!)

Get yer coffee ready! Oh. And send me some!

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Tuesday Daytime 9/05

Whoa! Stop the presses... Janelle seems to be sticking with the plan to evict Will. And, not only that, there has been no darn POV Ceremony even putting him on the block yet!

Here are the events from today in that Big Brother House of Take Your Shomance And Shove It:

• before the houseguests got up for the day, you could hear construction and BB staff workers doin' stuff.
• Everyone gathered in the HOH and Will asked if there was any confirmation that there's a live show tonight. [Editor's note: Hey, I'll confirm it.]
• Mike Boogie planned to "work on the girls."
• Will told Mike that he thought something was up because Janelle and Erika were up until 5:00 AM talking. Mike assured him it was probably just "girl talk." [Editor's note: Girl talk like "let's vote out Chill Town!"]
• Mike and Will have No-Doz and Red Bull stashed for the comp tonight - they're expecting an endurance one, as am I.
• Mike thinks he'll win HOH and be back in the room on Thursday.
• The guys planned their clothing for their expected endurance comp.
• Mike Boogie is getting pretty cocky - telling the camera "This is MY house now!" [Editor's note: I so hope not. Out of the ones left, it's Mike I like the least. I didn't like him in Season 2, I like him less now.]
• Will tried his best flirtmance cutesy-smiles on Janelle, but all she asked is why they call him the "Evil" doctor. Is he evil? She said she doesn't think so. He said, "I know!"
• Janelle and Will told each other that neither of them is normal. She said he's cornball while he said she was a psycho robotic Barbie. She didn't like that. Will decided that Janelle has feelings so she must be Transformer Barbie.
• Will and Janelle flirted. Again. Still.
• Erika mumbled nasty things about the "boys" whenever she could do so without them hearing. She's still mad.
• Janelle and Erika gave each other victory signs as Will slept nearby.
• Erika told Janelle that she asked Big Brother if she could redo her goodbye messages (now that things have changed).
• Erika and Janelle decided that theyll wear identical dresses and "act like brats" when they're the Final Two.
• BB announced they have an hour to the live show. I guess the POV will be done on the show or they'll just throw Will in a chair.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Overnight Into Tuesday 9/05

If you didn't read the last entry I wrote, Janelle decided to side with Erika to oust Chill Town. Say what? Read that entry first, then come back!

Here are the overnight events from that Big Brother House of Fickle Fates:

• Mike Boogie had an outright fit - "Those [bleeps] can't steal our game!"
• Woogie thinks that they can turn Janell back their way by reminding her of The Amazing Race possibility with Will. [Editor's note: Like that would work - they were just talking about it, nothing concrete.]
• Janelle stuck with the lie she told Erika she would make - told Will that she still planned to vote out Erika.
• Mike insulted Erika left and right and upside down in to Will and Janelle. Janelle remained quiet.
• Janelle told Will that Erika told her that he called her (Janelle) a "slut."
• Janelle and Will went to the Red Room. Erika remained alone on the hammock saying to the camera, "They're scurrying like [bleepin'] rats."
• Erika gave Mike Boogie the cold shoulder when he asked her what was wrong.
• Mike is sure that Janelle told Erika something that upset her.
• Mike then decides that Erika has just given up playing the game.
• While Will flirtmanced more with a less responsive Janelle, Erika seemed to be under a barrage from Mike Boogie.
• Will tried The Amazing Race angle, Janelle still not all that responsive to it.
• Janelle asked Will why he stopped sleeping in the bed with her until she won the POV.
• Will told Janelle again that he was going to bow out of the Final Three and he wants it to be Mike and Janelle in the F2.
• When Will got called to the Diary Room, Erika ran in to check on Janelle. She said she's furious (Erika).
• Erika told Janelle she's sure the Internet is begging her to evict Will.
• As the night went on and Erika was alone again, she started really looking burnt out.
• Will tried more to work his mojo on Janelle. Will and Janelle did settle in together in the Red Room as they have been lately.
• Will actually suggested that Janelle not use the veto. [Editor's note: The boy is desperate!]
• Lots of Will and Janelle whispering that isn't clearly audible. She finally got up for a smoke... right as Erika was having a smoke.
• Janelle told Erika that they (Chill Town) are both liars and that she (Erika) should have voted Mike Boogie out when she had the chance. Erika told her that Will convinced her not to. Erika told Janelle that the last thing her ex Josh told her as she left was not to let Will win.
• Janelle is worried that Will will be mad at her if she votes him out. [Editor's note: It's the Marcellas and other eviction flashbacks with her worrying people will be mad at her.]
• They found out that they were both told they were part of Chill Town and both were told they were the only female member.
• Janelle told Erika that when she walks Will to the door she'll say, "Shomance this!"

That's pretty much where we stand... at the moment.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Monday Evening 9/04

Here are tonight's events from the Big Brother House of Desperation:

• Janelle asked Will what he's called her and he admitted to "band groupie." He also admitted to FemBot, the Terminator, S6 was Seasick and more. He wanted to know where she heard about it. [Editor's note: As if he doesn't know, eh?]
• Erika complained that the "hooks were faulty" in the recent POV comp that Janelle won. She wanted to know why the one HOH with the malfunctioning buzzers was done over, but not the POV.
• Erika told Mike that she finds Janelle and Will's whispering to each other so much annoying.
• Will told Janelle that Jase didn't like her.
• The HG were put on an indoor lockdown. When they were allowed out, Janelle noticed the camera on a post in the yard had gone missing. She figured BB might be planning to set up an endurance comp out there.
• Erika pried Will for info asking all kinds of questions about whether he really cared for Janelle and the final two. He just kept saying nice things.
• Will told Janelle that Erika has been prying him for information regarding how he feels about her, so he told her that he thinks she (Janelle) is adorable.
• Will reported Erika's questioning back to Mike.
• Mike told Will he didn't think Janelle would do too well in a physical HOH comp because she's been eating ice cream and smoking all summer.
• Mike thinks Will has concentrated too much on Janelle all along while he was busy working James, working Erika, etc. Will told him the plan was still for both of them to be in the final two.
• Will doesn't want to upset Janelle - she's been good to them both.
• Erika told Janelle that if she takes either Mike or Will to the final two, she lost her vote.
• She also told her that Danielle and James won't vote for her and neither Woogie needs the money, so they don't need to win.
• Erika told Janelle that Will called her a slut after the band/shower thing. [Editor's note: Actually, though semantics, he said "she looks like a band slut" as she stood under the outdoor shower during their BB Backyard Band. Not quite the same as saying she is a slut.]
• Erika told Janelle that she told Mike last night that she was going to tell all today. Janelle said, "That's why Will confessed to so much today."
• Will got more antsy the more time Erika was alone with Janelle.
• Woogie decided to tell Janelle that Erika's lying.
• Will quote of the night: "Operation Double Date has now turned into Operation Stomach Ulcer."
• Erika kept working on Janelle, telling her that CT got her to vote out all of her friends.
• Janelle told Erika that she will go to the final two with her, but she has to keep saying that she's voting her out until the eviction.

Now, will the latest last? I don't know, but that's the latest in Janelle's Everchanging Mind. We've seen it before. And, what of the POV Ceremony? I don't know! It's kind of moot as Janelle will remove herself and Will is the only one who can be put on the block with Erika. But, it hasn't happened and I don't know when it will.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Monday 9/04 Through The Afternoon

Gee, the comments section is more volatile than the show. I certainly hope that stops. I've asked several times that folks treat each other with respect and realize that not everyone has the same favorites. If you see a comment which bothers you, you can ignore it and move along or state your own reasons for supporting/not supporting a houseguest. Remember, this is just a show we're watching.

Here are today's events from the Big Brother House of Smile On Your Brother:

• Once again, the houseguests slept in until around 12:30 PM their time.
• "How are we supposed to clean anything if Big Brother won't give us paper towels?"
• The houseguests were taken a bit aback when they were each called in the Diary Room to tape goodbye messages. They realized there will be an eviction tomorrow and decided that the finale date was indeed moved up (as they speculated yesterday).
• Will thinks one of the producers (Cory) hates him.
• BB only told the houseguests that they were taping the messages to get them out of the way, but the houseguests figured otherwise.
• They think they may still be in for a luxury comp. [Editor's note: I sincerely doubt they'll see one. It's been a sad season for luxuries and America's Choice. These guys got almost nothing in the way of any rewards. To me, a Will Farrell movie just doesn't cut it.]
• They discussed the pronunciation of the word "February." [Editor's note: And that's a highlight of the day, mind you!]
• Erika packed her bag for tomorrow's live eviction show.
• Mike Boogie said Kaysar looked like Osama bin Laden. [Editor's note: Chalk up another reason I don't like Mike.]
• Janelle packed even though she plans to use the veto to save herself.
• Janelle and Erika looked over their clothes trying to decide what to wear for the show tomorrow.
• Big Brother finally gave them a game which has pigs used like dice. They also got stuff to make bracelets/necklaces and model airplane kits. Wow.
• Will wants to spray a model plane with hairspray and catch it on fire as it flies.

Overall, it's been a very uneventful day in the house. The POV Ceremony hasn't been held, but I expect it should be sometime tonight.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Overnight Into Monday 9/04

I'm going to go off topic for a moment. I feel I must comment on the sad news that Steve Irwin was killed by a manta ray sting while filming a documentary off the coast in Australia. I adored him - his enthusiasm, his dedication, his abilities to handle wild animals. He was a fine ambassador for Australia and a really interesting, entertaining and enjoyable man to observe. He lived his life doing something he loved and the world is a better place for his efforts. He touched a lot of lives. He will be missed.

Sigh.

Onto the late night and overnight events from that Big Brother House of Misguided Malcontents:

• Mike told Erika that the jury can't really think that Janelle won all those comps due to ability because others were always throwing them.
• Will said his thumb hurt. [Editor's note: It's certainly been an injury-plagued season this year!]
• Will told Erika he was going to be up all night with Janelle. Erika looked irked behind her sunglasses.
• Mike told Will that Erika planned to tell Janelle about his "band slut" comment so that he could damage-control before it happens.
• They played cards. The guys talked about the restaurants. They're bored. I'm bored. I beseech thee, BB... give them back the trampoline! Give them a Twister game... something! Anything!
• Erika said she's been wearing her sunglasses because the lights are too bright. [Editor's note: Did they brighten in the past few days? She started wearing the sunglasses all the time around the time Janelle won POV. Coincidence? I think not!]
• Will quote about Erika: "She looks like an x-ray with hair."
• Will and Janelle flirtmanced some more. "Has anyone ever told you that you have beautiful eyes?" "Oh, Will!"
• Will and Janelle headed to bed where Will made his pillow wall between them once again.
• Janelle told Will that she can't win anyway. So, if it's up to her, she'll take him to the final two.
• Will asked Janelle what she would do with the money if she won. She said she has no real debt - her car and house are paid for. He talked to her about investing in his group.
• Will prepared Janelle for the things Erika plans to say to her - saying she looked like a "band slut" during the rock video segment they made and such.
• He also talked a lot about his personal life - his practice, tests, etc.
• Meanwhile, Mike Boogie and Erika were talking, too. Mike told her he wants to be the winner of the season - his ego wants it. [Editor's note: @@ - a well-deserved eyeroll to Mike Boogie!]
• Mike claimed that he wishes he could have regular pastimes like reading and such, but he feels the need for fame.
• Mike told Erika that he thinks Will's own ego and selfishness has kicked in and that he (Will) wants to be in the final two with Janelle, thus robbing Mike of the win.
• Erika told Mike that Janelle said she would take him (Mike) to the final two. [Editor's note: Which would be the strategic choice - she should win against him. With Will, it could go either way.]
• Erika stayed up roaming the night (well, the backyard) once again... smoking, playing pool by herself, mumbling about the [bleepin'] veto that Janelle won.
• All are sleeping as I post this entry.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Sunday Evening 09/03

After my bit of disappointment with tonight's show, at least the feeds had a bit o' juicy stuff!

Here are the events from the late afternoon hours into the late evening from that Big Brother House of Soon To Be Broken Hearts:

• Mike complained about Big Brother allowing Janelle and Will to sleep all day. [Editor's note: Go ahead and complain, Mike. I've complained all season and it's done me no good!]
• Erika is depressed. Depressed and bored. She wants BB to give them something new to do. I agree.
• Big Brother announced an indoor lockdown. Would this lead to excitement?
• Erika wore her sunglasses while indoors playing cards. [Editor's note: She must think her future's so bright that she has to wear shades?]
• The lockdown ended and it was all just to fix a camera. Bummer, eh?
• Will thinks the show is going to end early this season due to the number of houseguests left. He thinks it may be because of the fall TV schedule.
• Mike told Will that he's concerned that Janelle will go to the finals with him (Will). If that's the case, "the winner takes half and the other two split the remaining half."
• Will thinks Mike is just getting paranoid.
• Mike thinks that Janelle would have a hard time beating either Woogie in the finals. [Editor's note: I think she'd easily beat Mike - he's not popular with the jury and a lot of his game was masterminded by Will. I think she'd have a run for her money against Will, though.]
• Mike doesn't want Janelle with Will in the Final Two. He wants to be there.
• Will and Janelle talked. Will said their relationship is an odd relaxed brother/sister sort of thing. He seems to feel very comfortable with her.
• Janelle cut Will's hair at his insistence. No more lice-cam.
• He worried about the haircut every moment during it - "I feel like I have mudflaps! Oh, no! I have mudflaps! Do I have a rat-tail?"
• Will panicked when he saw his haircut in a mirror. And he wanted to look so nice for Julie Chen!
• Erika campaigned Janelle while Will freaked out about his haircut and Mike napped.
• Erika said that she'll pull out all stops on Thursday (they don't know about Tuesday yet) and told the camera that she'll tell Janelle that Will called her a "band slut."
• Janelle went to Will and told him that Erika said he wouldn't take her to the final two. Will told her that if it were he and Mike, they would each take each other, Janelle would take Will. They talked about the money split.
• Janelle agreed that she would take Will to the final two and also vote out Erika this week.
• Mike told Erika that Will would take him to the final two, not Janelle.
• Erika made sure she stuck around the others so no more scheming on Will's part for Janelle's vote can happen. She did that sort of thing during her own season, too.
• BB gave them more wine for tonight.
• Erika told Mike that if he goes to the final two with Will, chances are he won't win.
• Will and Janelle play-flirted more.
• Will also pried Janelle for information about what Erika's been saying about him.

That's about it.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Sunday 9/03 Show

Since the Sunday show was preempted, even canceled in some places, for the Jerry Lewis Telethon, a few folks asked that I post an entry about it.

Your wish is my command.

Or something like that.

I refuse to recap the almost 12 minutes of recaps which started the show. You heard me... almost 12 minutes! Sheesh! They even recapped their last recap.

I'll start talking about the show after they (once again) showed George leaving the house. "It's like the parents are all gone and it's the kids home alone!" In a Diary Room segment, Erika voiced her hopes that she and Mike Boogie make it to the Final Two and thinks they really have a relationship going - "Imagine that, the two lovebirds!" (Which I heard as the "two lepers" and thought it fitting. Alas, she said "lovebirds." Gag me, please.) Meanwhile, Mike's Diary Room showed he has absolutely no interest in her outside of using her in the game and his intent is to be in the Final Two with his Chill Town buddy, Will.

Then came Will talking about his "flirtmance" with Janelle and it's a totally different scene than Mike's shomance. Will admitted it's all in fun and, of course, to further him in the show. In Janelle's session, she said she doesn't really trust Chill Town because they lie so much, but she's hoping to make it to the Final Three with them.

Will suggested he has a "bromance" going on with Mike. I can just see how that will play out on the Internet - "Hey, did you know Will's gay? I thought so all along!" Heh, no I don't think he's gay.

Erika is convinced that Mike actually loves her and they did a bit about having a baby. Argh, she believes him! Boogie is very disappointed that Erika has started smoking again. He doesn't date smokers... not that he plans on dating her at all anyway. I feel sorry for her. She makes so many bad choices when it comes to men!

The HOH Competition had a football field set-up with the houseguests dressed in black and white striped referee shirts. Janelle read questions as Will, Erika and Mike competed. It was called the HOH Bowl (or BB Bowl) and each time a player answered a question wrong, they were penalized yards and had to step further away from the end zone. The questions were all regarding what day number different events occureed. It's a good thing it wasn't physical as Will's thumb is really broken and bandaged up. Mike won it, though Will actually gave it a real try. Mike got the new HOH and his room had cheap junk food in it - Spaghetti-O's, Mac 'n Cheese, Hamburger Helper. (I hope he has real food at his restaurants! I couldn't believe that mix of foodstuffs. Throw in some Ramen noodles and you have a college dorm.)

Erika immediately went into a panic and asked that Mike not put her on the block. Janelle figured she would be a shoe-in for his nomination, so she didn't sweat it. She would have been shocked if he said he wouldn't put her up. Will didn't sweat it either. Heck, he's from Chill Town, he's too cool to sweat. And, it's his boy making the noms. He's safe.

In a Happy Dance in the Storage Room segment, Will and Mike decided to focus on turning Janelle and Erika more against each other than they actually already are.

The Janelle/Will hot tub fight, which was actually much ado about nothing, was shown. They made up and are almost-best-buds once again. Or, at least best flirtmance buddies. Janelle made it clear in the Diary Room sessions tonight that she really doesn't trust him, but at least Will was only joking about marrying her and she knew that. Mike is leading Erika on and she's going to be really hurt. In a Diary Room session, he said how he's fooled her and ended with "I'm going to Hell." That might be too good for him when compared to a woman scorned.

Erika was shown eavesdropping as Will and Janelle talked about getting her (Erika) out of the house. Mike broke it up, but the damage was done. As Will told Janelle, the secret that Janelle was working with them would have been blown this week anyway.

There were bed scenes of Mike leading on Erika and, even if you don't like Erika, it would raise your hackles to see her being used like that. Sigh.

The show ended on a poignant note as Erika put on Janelle's tiara.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Sunday 9/03 Into The Afternoon

<--- Mike "Boogie" Malin, a legend in his own mind. I snagged this screen capture from the feeds a bit earlier and kept thinking he looked like an ant or a fly. He is SO not the man of MY dreams!

Today got off to a slow start in the house due to the houseguests once again being up for most of the night. But I feel that now I've gathered enough newsworthy things to make up an entry, so I'm giving it a shot.

Here are the events of Sunday so far in that Big Brother House of a POV Queen and Her Master Manipulator... and The Jealous Ones Who Live With Them:

• Will told Janelle that her friends would probably advise her not to be friends with him because he plays people. She told him she likes him anyway and that she'll stick with him. He went on to tell her she's affected his game because he likes to play without emotion and he can't when she's in the game. [Editor's note: Mr. Silver Tongue Say The Right Thing At The Right Time strikes again.]
• Janelle and Will slept together, but no hanky-panky ensued.
• BB tried to wake everyone up around 12:30, the crack of afternoon.
• Will told Erika that he feels sorry for Erika because she's going to be worried all day. Janelle told him she planned to tell her (her choice to save) today.
• After taking on George's housecleaning role for the last few days, Erika declared to Mike that she was no longer going to clean for everyone.
• Mike and Erika talked for some time while Janelle and Will stayed abed. Erika is pretty sure she'll be leaving and Mike told her he thinks that the final two will indeed be Janelle and Will. They went over who would vote for whom in the jury and think Janelle might win it all.
• Mike told Erika it would be "awesome" if the finale is moved up a week because he doesn't want to be in a boring house with Janelle and Will for a week. [Editor's note: Be careful what you wish for, Boogie. That's $2,000 less for you!]
• Erika thinks that Will's girlfriend has probably left him by now.
• Mike went on about how good things always go for Will - he's handsome, smart, women like him, he seems like he can do no wrong... and he will win BB7 over himself (Mike).
• Erika told Mike that Will would surely win over him with the jury votes.
• Will pointed out the differences between Mike's showmance and his own to Janelle. He told Janelle that Mike thinks Erika is "kinda creeepy" while he honestly likes Janelle and they're friends. Janelle thinks that Mike is just getting tired of Erika.

There. That's it.

For now...

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Overnight Into Sunday 9/03

All of a sudden, Janelle has all kinds of friends in the house. Winning a game-pivotal Power of Veto competition will do that to you. After she won it in the wee hours (here on the East Coast) of the night, a lot of positioning went on as Will and Erika both worked not to be the one chosen for eviction. Mike now has no choice but to put Will on the block with Erika once Janelle uses the veto to save herself. Janelle holds the sole vote to send someone home. Will it be Will or Erika? We really won't know until it happens. But in the meantime, we can be a fly on the wall.

Here are the overnight happenings from that Big Brother House of Take Me With You to the Final Three:

• Erika told Will that she was definitely going to campaign to stay even though Janelle will probably send her home.
• The veto competition (blocked from the feeds) had to do with previous food comps, one of the areas that neither Mike or Will focused on while studying.
• Big Brother gave them wine... again.
• Erika is not happy, not at all. She's pretty sure Janelle will keep Will and is at the point of desperation.
• Will, on the other hand, danced a happy dance with Janelle.
• Erika complained about the comp and Mike said he had a lot of problems with it, too. Erika said something about her Diane was broken and in the wrong place. [Editor's note: I'd hate to have a broken Diane, wouldn't you?]
• Janelle walked around wearing both her tiara and the POV necklace. She's a very happy camper. She also noted that she broke James' veto winning record.
• Woogie is happy. They said the show wanted Good vs. Evil and they got it. Plus, they're sure Janelle is smitten with Will and would choose to keep him.
• Woogie went right to work on Janelle to dump Erica. One of the main points is that Erika is extremely strong with endurance competitions and the final comp is traditionally a test of endurance. [Editor's note: They have a point there.]
• Janelle told Woogie that Erika tried to make a deal with her for Final Two.
• Janelle told Woogie (and later Erika) that no one will take her (Janelle) to the Final Two, so she has to fight for it and win it on her own. [Editor's note: She's right. Mike would take Will and vice versa. Erika would take Mike. If Janelle doesn't win her way into it, she won't be in the Final Two.]
• Woogie told Janelle she has a better chance winning against them than Erika.
• Erika kept telling her that she (Janelle) should take her with her as all she (Erika) would get is second place. She needs the money to pay the mortgage, dumped by her boyfriend, woe is me, wah, wah. She said Janelle would have the jury votes if it were the girls in the Final Two and that she'd be thrilled with the second place prize of 50 thousand to pay bills. Take me! Take me! The boys don't need the money. They're rich. I need this SO much! [Editor's note: I hate when reality show contestants pull the Woe Is Me, I Need The Money So Much card. To me, winning the shows should never be about who needs the money the most - it should be about who's the best at the game. If folks need the money so much, they should concentrate on a career... not be taking chances on reality shows. That's my opinion, your mileage may vary. But it is what it is.]
• Erika promised to take Janelle to the Final Two with her if she's kept and wins HOH.
• Erika told Janelle that Will and Mike are the biggest liars in the house and that Will says mean things about her (Janelle) when she's not around. Janelle kept telling her she had to go to the bathroom, but Erika kept on talking.
• Will said the Diary Room told them not to whisper anymore. Good. I'd imagine that's more for the TV show itself than for the feed watchers, but good anyway. About time. Tell them to stop shuffling cards and singing next.
• Then Will and Janelle whispered. Argh.
• Janelle told Will that Erika said that he said that Janelle was ruining his life.
• Both Will and Mike tried to convince her that Will never said that. [Editor's note: He did say that in an Internet address to his girlfriend to show that he still loves her and is not involved with Janelle. I personally think that's being taken a bit out of context, but that may just be me.]
• Will backpedalled with Janelle, claiming that Erika was desperate and pathetic and, of course, she'd say anything.
• Janelle thinks that Erika has misled her or lied to her several times in the game.
• Janelle was really upset about the "ruining your life" comment.
• Janelle told Will she fell in love with him early in the game. [Editor's note: Is she playing him? Or is she really smitten? The Diary Room sessions have it that she's playing him. Since the feeds only show her with folks with whom she can't confide, she could very well be playing him along. She has no one in the house to tell if she is.]
• Erika asked Mike and Will to leave her "nice" goodbye messages.
• Will told Mike that Erika told Janelle that he's using her (Janelle) in the game... which he admits is "kind of true."
• Erika told Mike that she thinks Janelle wants to take Will to the end to make for a storybook ending.
• Mike told Erika that neither he or Will would ever hold onto something for any long period of time in an endurance comp.
• Will told Janelle that both Kaysar and James called him before the show.
• Will and Janelle spent the wee hours in bed talking through the night. No bickering, no real flirting... just friendly talking.
• Will called out Erika (to Janelle) for owning three cars and a house and whining that she "needs money." He also mentioned that no one told James to drop out of five colleges then whine he needs money. If you need money, work for it. [Editor's note: Yep! As much as Mike really turns me off, I'll give him credit that he must have worked to make his businesses a success. I don't think anyone just gave him them. Nor was Will's degree just given to him.]

And, that's where things stand. Despite active campaigning and spilling the Will Beans (which are not to be confused with Cool Beans) to Janelle, now it seems that Erika is isolating herself and feels she will be evicted. Janelle and Will seem to have mended fences regarding the Spilt Beans. Mike is HOH, so he knows he's safe.

My own thoughts? It's hard. Erika could probably beat Janelle in an endurance comp at the end. I don't know if Erika would take Janelle to the final two if she did win. She could very well take Mike. If the final two was either Mike/Janelle or Erika/Janelle, I think Janelle would take the jury vote for the win. But if the final two was Janelle/Will, it's more of a toss-up as both play the game extremely well in their own ways. Will never wins comps, but manipulates people. On the other hand, Janelle isn't so great at decisions, but she's sure a machine when it comes to the competitions.

So... I dunno. I'd personally like to see a Will/Janelle final two at this point. How about you?

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Bulletin - POV Winner

After a few hours of blocked feeds, Janelle is wearing the POV necklace. She did it again.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Saturday 9/02 In The House

Yes, this report is a bit late in coming. But I have a reason.

There hasn't been much happening.

Hey, it's a good reason, right?

Here are the events (and a few non-events) from today in that Big Brother House of Nappers and Card Players:

• They slept late, for a change. [Please note that's sarcasm.]
• Will waved at a helicopter in the yard, then said it was L.A.P.D. and they gave him a siren blast.
• On and off all day from morning (well, noon) to night, they all studied up on house and comp trivia in preparation for the POV Comp. I mean everybody, in pairs, trios, all mixes.
• Will told Erika that the BB house is like a morals test - James was always too worried about what Sarah and his family would think. But, you can't go the other extreme and just hop into bed with any buxom blonde and think it's all okay.
• Mike Boogie got more medical care for his ear woes.
• Mike and Erika think Janelle is a machine when it comes to competitions.
• Will told Mike that he hopes the fans realize that he thinks Janelle is cute, funny, sexy and more... but he loves Erin (his girlfriend).
• They played cards. They talked about the wonder that is Metamucil. They played more cards.
• Will admitted he hasn't washed dishes since he's been in the house (and he's not starting now).
• Janelle stayed in bed a lot and told Will she didn't feel well. He told her she can win.
• Mike and Will napped in the HOH and ant room, respectively. While they napped, Erika and Janelle were in the kitchen just chitchatting.
• All later napped some more. I napped, too. It must be contagious.
• Erika eavesdropped on Will and Janelle drilling for HOH trivia questions and flirting.
• They talked of others throwing comps and how terrible James was when he threw the one to Danielle.
• They wondered about the Veto Comp - said BB told them nothing. They've been in indoor lockdown for hours now. [Editor's note: I wonder about it, too!]
• Will went on and on about Mike accusing him and his "dollfriend" of stealing his HOH the other day.

And, there you go. There is still no word on the POV as I post this. It has not happened, the houseguests don't know when it's supposed to happen. When I know more, I'll post.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Digest - Late Night Friday Overnight Into Saturday 9/02

Well, it's down to the final four and they say they all like each other. We have a showmance and a flirtmance. Ho-hum. Give me some excitement! The women should mutiny... or something.

Here are the events from last night and through the overnight hours into today from that Big Brother House of Waning Days:

• Will and Mike are pleased with the results of their Operation Double-Date. They think they're sitting pretty for a win.
• Mike told Erika that Will is happy with third place (and a Vespa) because he still felt guilty about the second season. He implied that Erika would be in second place with him. She believes him. She shouldn't.
• Will and Janelle talked with Will pushing the idea that everyone would hate him in the finals and whoever was with him would win. [Editor's note: Maybe, maybe not.]
• The houseguests were thrilled to get a special delivery (from the storage room) of fried chicken from KFC. [Editor's note: Well, we now know KFC has to be a sponsor due to the Colonel on Thursday and now a feast. I never saw people so happy about fried chicken.]
• Janelle mentioned that the houseguests in sequester can only talk about the game with handlers (show staffers) around. I found that interesting.
• Will and Janelle had their ups and downs with bickering and making up. Will told her he's bored and she's his playmate, so he tries for excitement.
• Erika's very stressed out about the upcoming POV comp.
• Will wanted to barter for the return of the trampoline - he offered the pool table and the hammock.
• They played cards. I don't like watching them play cards. I don't like when they shuffle cards. Make them stop.
• Janelle and Will whispered a lot. I don't like it when they whisper. I can't hear what they're saying. Make them stop.
• (I'll stop fussing now.)
• Will is worried that Erika will send him home if she wins POV. He tells Mike to work on her.
• Will told Mike that Janelle asked him if she was safe - he assured her that she was and it would be Erika sent to the jury. It seems Will is intent on keeping Janelle in the final three and Mike seems to have no objection.
• Mike said that Erika has to go home next because she's an "endurance freak" and the last comp is usually endurance.
• Will thinks he can flirt Janelle out of an endurance comp.
• Will thinks that they (Woogie) have to be careful as to not push Janelle and Erika to the point where they might team up against them.
• Will, prone to puppet shows, used a kiwi fruit and a grapefruit to act out his relationship to Janelle. He told Janelle (through the fruit) that the flirting was a joke while the friendship was real.
• Mike and Erika think that Janelle probably gained ten to fifteen pounds in the house.
• Will said that Danielle liked to be everyone's friend while throwing them under the bus.
• Will and Mike bid goodnight and separated themselves from their showmances.
• Janelle wanted to talk with Will and after he finally said to go ahead, but she had to tell a story. So she made up a story. Hey, I just report. I don't know what his fixation with stories is.
• They (Janelle and Will) continued to talk about Big Brother and other things for quite a while.
• All are sleeping, some tossing and turning a bit, as I get this posted.

POV should be later today. If, by chance, I'm not right around to post about it, this site is great for instant updates.

'BB7' - Live Feeds Bulletin - Nominations

It's confirmed (finally) - Erika and Janelle are Mike's nominations for eviction.

POV should be tomorrow.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Friday Daytime 9/01

It's down to the Final Four. Did you think Erika would be in there?

Here are the happenings from predawn to afternoon Friday in that Bg Brother House of Fools and Fooling:

• Janelle was up until almost 6 AM their time and, as she headed to bed, Erika got up. She didn't stay up long and all ended up sleeping in once again.
• Mike Boogie ended up being the first one really up and about at well past 10 AM.
• Mike got his sweat suit with "Chill Town" in rhinestones that BB promised to retrieve from his home closet as a HOH gift. He's sure he's cool now.
• Will and Janelle still like each other even though Will had a rant aimed for Erin last night about Janelle.
• Erika picked up the housework jobs that needed doing. Once she started, it made me recall that she did do a lot of housekeeping in her season. Apparently this year with George, she let him do it. [Editor's note: It's a good thing someone is cleaning!]
• Woogie went over scenarios with the POV and how they'll react. Will said they have to win POV - neither girl can win it for their plans to succeed.
• Will continues to plant seeds against Janelle to Erika, just as he has Janelle plant seeds against himself to her. That plan is supposed to make her think they're going to go after each other in the game.
• Erika thinks Janelle will win the Veto.
• The plasma screen announced that nominations would be today.
• As of this time the nominations have not yet been held.

Folks, once again I ask that you please be civil to each other in the comments area. I get an email for each comment and, yes, I do read each one. When faced with having to get a report posted and having to wade through the blog comments trying to remove squabbling and nastiness, it's the reports (and my sleep, dinner, whatever) that suffer. The best way to keep this from happening is to post about the show and the houseguests, not the other commenters (unless, of course, it's something pleasant). We come from all walks of life - some folks post long comments, some just post a few words, some post in caps due to vision woes, some don't spell well... and on and on. We're all human and we're all different. But, one thing which doesn't need to happen is plain old meaness directed at others. So, please... post accordingly. I do care about the comments even though I'm a bit swamped.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Update - Overnight Into Friday 9/01

After such a hectic pace, the Final Four have settled in... a bit.

Here are the overnight events from that Big Brother House of Shomances, Flirtmances and Just Plain Using:

• Will told Erika it's almost a waste to have nominations at this point, the POV player is the one with the real power.
• They had wine. Will made a taste test between the two kinds. They have time to waste.
• Will told Janelle that she should tell Erika she's still after Chill Town and that she'll put Will on the block if she wins POV.
• Erika told Mike Boogie that she didn't want to be nominated.
• When Mike got his HOH room, it had the same bedspread as the Jase/Janelle HOH in the first week.
• They spent time in the hot tub, with Janelle not allowed in Will's "personal bubble" for the sake of Erin. [Editor's note: He said that since childhood, his brother and he have had "personal bubbles" and used to yell to their mother when they were violated.]
• All kissed, started by Mike/Erika.
• Will described James as "wormy."
• Will and Janelle teased/flirted back and forth a lot while Erika seemed to put a lock on Mike.
• Will and Janelle had a mock fight running from each other, teasing each other.
• Mike and Erika agree that neither of them could beat Will or Janelle in the end.
• Will told Mike that he has to handle his showmance and told Janelle he wants her to stay.
• Right now the nominations are up in the air. Will has said he'd go on the block, but he's said that before. It will most likely be Erika and Janelle, but Will's right... the noms don't matter this week. POV does. The POV winner is the sole vote for the next houseguest to go home.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Thursday Night After The Live Show 8/31

Here are the events since the live show aired from that Big Brother House of Dubious Couples:

• The remaining four (Erika, Will, Mike and Janelle) first thought someone would return to the house, but then decided the finale may have been moved up.
• Janelle asked Erika if she was mad at her for nominating her. Erika said no, but then added: "Just how many times have you done this to me?"
• Will's thumb is really sore. Ouch.
• Woogie talked - they think that if Erika wins HOH, Will and Janelle will go on the block. Then, if Janelle wins POV, they're out. Janelle cannot play for HOH.
• They finally got the sushi Will wanted so much.
• Will said the Diary Room asked him about the fact that he told 4 out of the 5 people in the Sequester House that they were safe. [Editor's note: They all know he lies.]
• Janelle was upset about the POV, Will told her he honestly tried to win.
• Janelle told Woogie that they have to win HOH.
• They decided that the four remaining all deserved to be there and all played the game... no riding on coat-tails or flying under the radar.
• Will said he was James in the Diary Room, not funny at all. [Editor's note: I believe he meant whining about his thumb. It's all bandaged up.]
• It dawned on Mike that this upcoming POV holds more power than the HOH and is the sole vote.
• Then we went into flames for a long, long time as the feeds were blocked for the HOH comp.
• When the feeds returned, Will and Janelle had on striped referee-style shirts and Will was asking Mike if he could take a bath in the HOH room. Mike is the new HOH. (Sigh.)
• Will told Janelle he really tried.
• Mike sat around smiling saying he couldn't [bleeping] believe it.
• Now they're cleaning out the refrigerator and not a heck of a lot is going on game-wise. They're all pretty happy, Mike more than anyone else.
• Will told Janelle that she has to win POV to send Erika home.

And there ya go.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' -Live Feeds Bulletin - HOH

Mike Boogie.
Sigh.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - The Live Show 8/31 - Fast Forward

<-- Graphic artist Zoetawny came up with Final Two choices. I personally think it may get down to Will and Mike. And, if it does, Mike won't win.

What a whirlwind night, eh? On the show, Chicken George was added to Janelle and Erika as an honorary member of Chill Town. Then Mike spoiled it all in a Diary Room confessional where he said ALL of the honorary CT members would leave. Ah, but we knew that's the Woogie plan. As an aside, you folks all remember how they got the name Chill Town, right? It's because the bedroom they were in during Season 2 was so cold. It's not because they were cool. Will might be, but Mike only thinks he is.

The show didn't waste much time and Julie got right to business by telling the houseguests they can expect the unexpected. Poor George was dressed as a flower (from the food comp) not knowing that it was going to be a very active night. Bang! It's Big Brother Fast Forward! To the votes - zap, zap, Danielle out by a vote of three to zero.

Danielle took it well and expected it. She told them to play hard and that her vote would go to the best player of the game. She brought her Bible out with her, leaving Janelle void of her reading material. She talked a bit longer with Julie to give the houseguests a few minutes to prepare to jump into HOH comp mode (and for George to deflower). When Julie told her another houseguest would leave tonight, Danielle said if she had her choice, Erika would be the second eviction. for the most part, the goodbye messages were very nice. Erika cried through hers. Danielle didn't buy the tears.

Onto the HOH comp! Zoom! I detailed it a bit more in this entry, but Janelle ended up winning by answering 8 questions out of 8 right. Will was her closest competitor, but fell two right answers short close to the end. Janelle is the new HOH! Throw confetti, but make it fast - nominations live in four minutes! Will took Janelle aside and pushed for Erika/George noms, but Janelle wanted Mike/Erika or not George... or something. She wanted Mike on the block, but Erika the target. But she was scared to nominate Erika. After all, what would she think? Argh, Janelle! Stop it!

Sure enough, she nominated Erika and George. Oh, no! They're told the POV would be next! In a hooked to a rope, undo the knots, get the veto, run back and ding thing - Will and Erika held the lead from just after the start. Will really tried on this one, but Erika was fighting for her life in the house. And, she wins POV.

Wait, let's have a POV Ceremony! Erika took herself off the block. With only Will and Mike to choose from, on the spot Janelle put up Mike.

Can we breathe yet? No! It's onto the live voting! With only Erika and Will voting, the vote is unanimous... George is evicted. He took it great. He never expected to make it to the Final Five and likened himself to a "donkey in the Kentucky Derby." As promised, he got a bucket of fried chicken from the Colonel himself... or a reasonable facsimile thereof. I didn't see the beer, though!

No time for goodbye messages, though George knows that he was well-liked by those remaining in the house. Well, maybe not so much by Mike. No time for us to see James enter sequester. No time to breathe!

The final bit showing the remaining houseguests showed that Will hurt his thumb in the POV comp, where Erika's picture should be on the Memory Wall was a black and white (evicted) Jase picture and... Will caught onto a time frame issue. The houseguests still think the finale is September 19. He thinks someone is returning.

Hopefully, on Sunday's show we'll see James, Danielle and George enter the sequester house. Julie announced that Sunday's show will have the new HOH comp (which is going on as I write this - blocked from the feeds). On Tuesday, there will be a special live eviction show. Then, after that, we only have the Thursday show and the finale on Tuesday, September 12.

Big Brother 7: All Stars' - East Coast Update Live Show 8/31 - 2nd Eviction/Voting

Dang, these guys look stressed... except George.

Mike thinks he's giving a political speech or something/says George would get sympathy votes from the jury.

The voting is to evict:
Will - George
Erika - George

George is evicted.

Additional note added: HOH will be done on Sunday's show. There will be a special live eviction show Tuesday.

Big Brother 7: All Stars' - East Coast Update Live Show 8/31- Veto Meeting

Erika is speechless.

Uses it to save herself. Janelle puts up Mike Boogie. So the nominees are Mike and George.

The Veto Meeting is adjourned. Live vote after commercial.

NOW they know for sure that another is going home.

Big Brother 7: All Stars' - East Coast Update Live Show 8/31 - Veto Comp

Oops. I meant that Erika couldn't compete in the last HOH in last post.

Attached with ropes/knots, must free their veto. All compete.

Ropes are about 15 feet long with three knots..

Erika and Will leading.
Mike confused.
George way behind.
Erika and Will still leading.
Erika has the veto, going to unclip herself. Will right behind.

Erika won the POV.

Only a few minutes to think.

Big Brother 7: All Stars' - East Coast Update Live Show 8/31 - Nominations

Julie told them 4 minutes until nominations. Janelle (new HOH) talks to Will. He pushes George and Erika. Of course. Will's smiling. A lot. Janelle doesn't want to put Erika up because she might win POV.

Commercial. By the way - Erika couldn't play in HOH as she was exiting HOH.

Janelle's nominations are: George and Erika.

Veto Comp next.

Big Brother 7: All Stars' - East Coast Update Live Show 8/31 - HOH Comp #1

A week of BB all in one hour - Fast Forward

Battle of the Sexes
Julie asks 8 questions about events which have taken place - answers are male or female. Booths, step forward or back.

George and Mike down a point. Will and Janelle all right so far.
Janelle in lead with four points, others 2 or 3 (Will)
Janelle five points, all others three.
Janelle 6, others 4.
George is thrilled everytime he gets one right. It's cute.

Janelle is the new HOH.

Big Brother 7: All Stars' - East Coast Update Live Show 8/31 - First Eviction and Voting

Votes are to evict -

Janelle - Danielle
Will - Danielle
Mike - Danielle

Danielle is evicted.

BB7 - Show Schedules Link and Blogging Live Show Information 8/31

Folks, remember that Big Brother is being pre-empted and put on at odd hours in many areas tonight. It's a very important show, so we gathered local schedule changes here --> The (TV) Show Must Go On...: BB7 - Regarding Thursday Evening Live Show Schedules

If your area is not listed and you find there is a change, please post in the comments of that entry.

As for tonight's show, I'll be quickly posting important events as they happen here on the East Coast. I have no clue when they'll be doing what. If you refresh the blog or use the August 2006 on the right sidebar of the main blog page (the one with more than one entry), it should bring up the newest post. I'll probably post a recap, but that might not hit the page until late tonight.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Thursday Before The Live Show - 8/31

Well, those houseguests are in for a rough night tonight, eh?

Here are the day's events prior to the live show from that Big Brother House of Unexpecting Evictions:

• All of them, I say ALL of them, slept past 11 AM their time this morning.
• BB used classical music to awaken them and it just didn't work as well as metal rock.
• The music played throughout the house partially to mask the trial by staff of the upcoming comp out in the backyard. They normally test these things. And, as we know, sometimes things still go awry. But tonight's show doesn't have a moment to waste, I would think.
• George fluttered around to the music as he cleaned house.
• Erika told Mike she didn't sleep well. [Editor's note: She was up for more than an hour smoking alone in the back yard.]
• We had a lot of blocked feeds on and off through the daytime. Often, if they give HG instructions on the comp for the live show, we'll get blocked.
• George packed.
• Mike's ear is still giving him problems. Now he says it's wax build-up or blocked somehow.
• No real game talk going on at all. They don't seem to have any clue that they're heading to a double eviction. They're primping and some were working out between feeds blockages.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Overnight Into Thursday 8/31

Here are the overnight events from that Big Brother House of Wannabe Celebrities:

• Mike Boogie claimed he had been kissed by Paris Hilton and Erika went a step further -- she claimed she's been with Matthew McConaughey. [Editor's note: I would have thought he'd have better taste!]
• They talked about odd sexual conquesting at bars.
• Will said he didn't think Erin would break up with him over the show.
• Mike asked Will and Janelle if they'd "hook up" in the house with 6 or 7 bottles of wine to encourage them. They said no. Will said it wasn't in his moral character.
• Mike complained more about the BB doctor not fixing his ear. He said the doctor would return with a piece of equipment.
• Mike is concerned that Will is too close to Janelle. Will told him he trusts her 100% because she thinks they'll be getting together after the show. Meanwhile, he loves his girlfriend.
• Mike complained to George and Danielle about Will and Janelle.
• Danielle said she didn't think it was fair that Season 6 came in the house with four members.
• When George asked Danielle if her husband would be at the wrap party, she said probably not. He doesn't like Big Brother.
• Will told Mike that he did a Diary Room segment about Mike's lack of self-control. Mike only asked if it was funny. [Editor's note: I would be embarrassed!]
• BB turned the lights off at about 2 AM their time. Erika stayed up smoking alone in the yard.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Into Wednesday Evening 8/30

Ah, memories of a more interesting night. Yep, graphic artist Zoetawny just had to do something about Danielle's bizarre behavior the other night. Now, even Danielle has calmed down and it's turned to a waiting game. She's holding out a bit of hope, but I think she's resigned to the fact that she's probably going home tomorrow night. No one has told her that she's the target, but that's not because she isn't the target. It's because they don't want the Wrath of Danielle at them.

Here are the afternoon and evening (so far) events from that Big Brother House of No Bouncy-Bounce:

• Why "no bouncy-bounce"? Well, the trampoline was taken away last night - according to the comp in which they won it, they only had it through Tuesday. And, trust me, today these folks just ain't too bouncy.
• Danielle is bothered by the fact that Will and Janelle spend so much time together. "What are they doing? What do they talk about?" [Editor's note: Very similar to her not trusting George because he won't tell her his strategy. Her kids must really have had trouble getting away with anything!]
• Mike saw the show's doctor for his ear, but still isn't pleased.
• Danielle packed her bags in anticipation of tomorrow.
• Will shmoozed Erika - told her how hard he worked for Marcellas to go on the block instead of her, told her that George would beat Janelle in the Final Two. [Editor's note: While Mike focuses his sex drive on his shomance, Will works Mike's showmance for their mutual benefit.]
• Erika told Will it's imperative to get Janelle out. If she stays, she will think that they're (Janelle and Erika) targeting Chill Town.
• Will agreeed with her. Of course. [Editor's note: Sure, he does. It's a scheme he assigned to Janelle. Lie!]
• George worked on his costume for the live show. It's going to make his previous costumes look normal. Eep.
• Will heard some construction work going on somewhere over the fence. He yelled. He pleaded. He begged to know what they were building out there. No response.
• Will kept singing and Big Brother kept telling him to knock it off.
• Will confronted Danielle while she was smoking hiding behind the couch (in the yard). "The cameras see you there. Do you care?" "No."
• Will kicked the beachball onto the roof of the house and worked to get it down. No, he may not climb up on the roof.
• Will wanted to put Erika's teddy bear in the hot tub. She wouldn't let him and wanted to know why he wanted to be so mean to the bear.
• Mike accused Will and Janelle of stealing his hidden HOH treats. Will said they were probably taken by BB when they were on food restriction.
• Mike isn't pleased. He said a lot of stuff has gone missing... even the Hamburger Helper. [Editor's note: Maybe it's the tarantulas stealing the foodstuffs!]
• Will wanted to create a smoky fire in the backyard and scream "Fire!" George told him that they'd have have Jase (the hero firefighter) there with an extinguisher. Then he said Will must have given his parents a rough time bringing him up.
• With no fire, Will screamed, "The backyard's on fire! Help!"
• Lots of singing (blocking feeds each time), celebrity talk and talk of boredom.

And that's what it is.

'Big Brother 7: All Stars' - Live Feeds Report - Wednesday Into The Afternoon 8/30

All I can say is that I would not be suited for the house. I'd be a George, not doing anything to compromise my personal integrity or morals, yet perhaps just a tad goofy. Erika and Mike Boogie just gotta go away. Please.

Here are today's events so far from that Big Brother House of Boogie's Soft Porn (Eww):

• Danielle once again asked Mike Boogie (this time) if they're saving her. Right? Yeah, right.
• Danielle thinks that if Will makes the Final 2, he'll win the jury votes even though he was responsible for all the jurors being there in the first place. He plays the game well.
• The houseguests were put on an indoor lockdown and construction was evident in the backyard.
• As they talked of the time remaining, they obviously haven't been told that the season will be ending over a week earlier than planned.
• Mike said he got into trouble for not wearing his microphone. [Editor's note: Too bad he can't get in trouble for being a sleaze, eh?]
• Mike complained that his ear (a problem some weeks ago) was still bothering him and BB "had better get him some care for it."
• Will worked on his own buddy Boogie pushing Janelle as the third in their Final Three.
• There seems to be a bit of a rift still with Mike and Will regarding Janelle. While Mike and Will are willing to throw Erika "under the bus," Will seems to want Janelle in the game as long as possible. Mike thinks she's dangerous.
• They got the HOH digital camera and took photos, with George donning his Santa suit.
