I'm Jackie and I watch TV. I'm not proud. Bookmark the blog now as your source for live feed reports from inside the 'Big Brother' house! Come, join in on the fun ...
Yeah, we know which one will stay up for eviction, but let's pretend we don't! Yes, it's a Zoetawny graphic!
As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll constantly be updating this post. If you don't see any updates, give a moment, refresh and they'll be here!
First a subliminal message -- vote for Terry Fator for America's Got Talent...! Now, you didn't read that here, did you? The thought just came to your head, right?
As always, please forgive any typos or misspellings as I type this off the cuff as I watch the show. If you've ever typed with your wrists, you know how hard it can be!
The show has started here. Recapping, but of course. Dick once again tells us that he'll make the others hate him so he'll go home instead of Daniele. He gieves her advice about the others and feels she has a better chance of going forward than he will. Now a bit of schmaltzy father/daughter musings from Dick.
Jen makes herself at home in the HOH room and Jessica thinks she's trying to play both sides.
Dick works on getting "the five" to despise him. Rock music plays. He has a pan lid and spoon awakening Dustin and Amber. I believe Amber just became a true zombie. They toned it down a bit in editing and parts of it are actually funny on the show.
Veto player picking time -- Jessica picks Jameka, Dick praises the lord. Daniele chose Dustin. Dick chose Zach. Eric will be the host. (Praise the lord it isn't Amber!)
The players were separated, then called to the backyard one by one. Drinking concoctions and croquet. Wicked Wickets Forest. The number of stations completed are determined by the amount of shots drank. Jessica has problems with chunks. I don't think that's something I needed that much detail on. Dustin is really going for it. Zach is reminding me of Rudy going through the forest in Survivor -- "I don't know." Dick is a champ, drinking them all. Jessica's not doing too well.
I would be horrible at this contest! The shots taken listed and croquet playing.
Zach gets three strokes, 3 points. Jameka got four shots, 10 points. Jessica got five shots, 17 points. Daniele gets 7 shots, 20 points. Dustin gets 10 shots, 32 points. It's Dick with 10 shots. He gets 33 points! He wins!
Rock music plays.
Dick is gloating. The others run and hide once again. Jameka and Daniele have a run in. Daniele runs to the HOH room crying about how tired she is of being blamed for what her father does. "No one will look at me!" Everyone's there except Dick. Jameka screams that she never made an effort to know them.
It's a brouhaha, folks. It truly is.
Daniele admits to us it was strategy, although it is hwat she's feeling, too.
Dick and Daniele meet. Daniele doesn't want the others to know it's all a plan to keep her in. Now she's whining about how much she hates it there and it sucks all over again.
Before commercial she tells us that her father is the only one she doesn't want to see evicted and that's not how she felt coming into the game.
Now Jessica, Eric and Dustin are talking about Dustin going up as a pawn. Eric tells us he's thrilled that Dustin is going to do "America's dirty work." Dustin is cocky and sure he'll win by a landslide.
America's Player -- Eric has to give the silent treatment to Jessica. He decides the best way to accomplish it is to hide in bed. Jen tells Jessica that Dustin has a deal with Evel.
Eric failed the task.
Jessica thought more about the deal Jen said Dustin has, then worried that Eric was in on it because he wouldn't talk to her. (But he did briefly, thus the fail.) Oh, woe is me. What should I do?
Dick has a plan. He would give his life for his daughter. He's happy that it's his decision. His speech: he gives Daniele her chance to speak. "Whatever you decide is good." He says he decided not to use the veto ... on himself. Daniele comes off the block today.
She puts Dustin on the block.
Oh... with his DR session for us, Dustin has to go! Dick reminds us that often the pawn goes home. Jessica is whiny.
Amber didn't cry.
Jameka cries.
America's Player -- Which of the two nominees do you want Eric to get evicted? Dustin or Dick?
It's actually been a peaceful day in the house. Except for one incident.
Eric streaked.
Everyone is playing games and getting along for the most part. They're going to cut their hair, too. Well, some of them. I have a new post in the pending queue over on TV Squad.
I'll be live-blogging tonight's show starting at 9 PM ET. Please stop by with your snacks! Um, not that your snacks are more important than your presence. Never! I'll also be updating with a live feeds report later tonight.
But it's BORING when these guys talk movies and play beer pong for hours!
For once, they're actually all in bed by 3 AM their time!
That's the secret. You fill them with food and give them music and the world is a good place all over again.
Here are the late night happenings from that Big Brother House of Discrepancies:
Although Zach has made a promise with Jessica to vote out Evel Dick, that doesn't stop him from getting closer to Daniele. They talked about going to the final two together.
Jen thinks that Daniele will cling to Zach if her father goes home because "she has to have a guy."
Jameka said she got her birthday song.
There was more than one mention of a "Brian" who sang well.
When Dustin talked to Jen, she told him that she had already promised to vote for Evel Dick to go no matter who went up against him.
Eric's anatomy was seen by Jessica and Jameka in the shower. Apparently he's a victim of shrinkage.
Amber thinks that Dustin and Eric are jealous of her, Jameka, and Jessica.
Amber told Dustin and Jameka that if she wins HOH next week, she would nominate Zach and Jen because Zach was going after Jameka. (Say what?)
Amber has had lice in the past, no one else has.
All went to bed a bit early for them. Jessica is sleeping with the lights on in the HOH. For a while the camera operator seemed bored as he was zooming in and out on her face.
The Good Father graphic is courtesy of Zoetawny. He must have said some sweet things at that POV ceremony!
That post I was talking about is up over on TV Squad.
After a hectic evening, I'm here to let you know what I thought was interesting or important from that Big Brother House of Odd Folks:
Jessica didn't go to bed until past 8 in the morning (their time).
Big Brother woke them up not much more than an hour after Jessica went to bed promising the POV Ceremony would be in 90 minutes.
Dustin is mad because he thinks Dick is messing with and taking his things.
Jessica and Dustin discussed the scenarios -- if Daniele comes off the block, he'll go up against Dick. If Dick saves himself, it will be Jen against Daniele.
Jessica told Jen that she would go up if it's Daniele on the block. Jen was not a happy camper.
Jen told Dick and Daniele.
Amber and Jameka think the juices are tainted and that Dick did something to them.
Jessica got worried because Eric wouldn't talk to her. Is he in an alliance with Jen? (We know what happened there, America.)
Eric ended up feigning an illness, going to the DR about it and getting told to stay in bed away from everyone. (That's just shy of cheating!)
As she was alone in the HOH, Jessica mumbled to herself that "he" had deals with "both of them." Then Jessica cried.
Dick told them that he put something in the juice when they asked him, but he didn't.
Jen told Daniele and Dick that Dustin will go on the block if Daniele is saved.
Dick told Daniele that she should try for a possible deal with Eric. Daniele suggested she use Zach as a go-between on it.
Dick saved Daniele and then went around apologizing to everyone for his actions -- "I was making you hate me so you'd vote me out if the nominations remained the same. I did it for my daughter!"
Jessica told Eric she was having doubts about Dustin, but now Zach's vote is locked in with them.
Eric told Jessica he thinks she made the right choice in putting Dustin up in Daniele's place. (Of course, cha-ching, money in his pocket!)
Dustin told Zach he knew he was going up and did it for the group.
Daniele told Jen that she had been told that in week 7 there would be a twist introduced in the game.
She said she got it from someone not in the house. It sounds like it could be prior to entering, but I don't know. They went to trivia and music before she could say more.
Dick and Dustin had verbal fisticuffs. Evel was telling Dustin his aggression was for a reason (to save Daniele) and Dustin just wants his stuff back and for Dick to stop messing with it.
Dick said he won't get his shirt with the fake tattoo sleeves back until he leaves because he uses it to mock him.
He then went around un-hiding all of Dustin's things he's been taking.
When Evel tried to tell Eric why he acted before he did, Eric told him he was too worried about redeeming his own self to fight. He also said that if anyone other than Jessica had won HOH, he would have gone home this week. (Including his buddy Dustin, eh?)
Dick worked on turning Eric against Dustin (little does he know, but America may do that for him).
Dick told Eric about the one-week deal they had with Amber and Dustin.
Eric again denied being the vote for Nick to stay when the house vote was Kail to stay. He also told Dick it bothered him that Daniele and he were so quick to believe that one banner plane.
Dick predicted that Dustin will be the first evicted from the LNC Remainders.
There was a feeds block and when they came back, they were celebrating being at the halfway point of the game.
Jameka and Jen want to be on The Amazing Race.
Dick told Jessica that if the vote is 3-3 on Thursday, he'll have her back if she keeps him in the tiebreaker vote.
Daniele advised Dick not to trust Jen completely.
The feeds have been blocked for some time now. I'm not sure what's going on. I think they may have food coming in (Dustin mentioned food and he's on slop) and some sort of private party for the halfway point or something.
UPDATE -- The feeds have returned. They did have a feast, music, and not sure all what. They're full and happy now.
This is it! It's the season finale and one of the two who shouldn't be running a fine dining establishment will be. Woohoo! This post will be udated throughout the show so refresh your page for the most recent updates.
It's the guys and the girls once again. Or, as they say, the boys. Julia is still pouting some. She also thinks Rock deserves to win.
Rock seems to be leading his team a bit more. Bonnie doesn't seem to have a good plan and isn't familiar with what she's chosen for her menu.
Julia isn't reacting well to Bonnie's direction, giving her nasty looks and saying she didn't need to be treated like an idiot. In Bonnie's restaurant, they've run out of wallpaper.
Rock actually is paying attention to detail. His team seems more receptive to his direction. Ramsay doesn't like Bonnie's dessert -- I thought it looked good -- four chocolate truffles. He doesn't like Rock's dessert either.
Bonnie's restaurant is ready for Ramsay's inspection. He likes it. Clean, elegant. He doesn't care much for the hardwood floors due to noise.
Rock's is now ready. Elegant. No salt and pepper on the tables because it should be properly seasoned coming to the patrons.
Ramsay gives them some last minute advice -- you run the kitchen, don't let it run you. They each get new master chef jackets.
The kitchen(s) is/are open. The appetizers are getting ready. Ramsay is happy. The appetizers come out at the same time. Bonnie starts to have some communication woes with her not-wisely-chosen team. Julia is in her own world.
Rock is doing slightly better with Josh, but it's not an easy go.
Now Bonnie isn't listening to Julia.
Rock's team is falling behind on the appetizers. But Bonnie ran out of fettuccine for her signature dish and has to substitute spaghetti. Then Rock's team is falling apart mainly due to Josh. Rock finally moves Vinnie to fish because Josh kept burning the crab cakes. Rock is starting to get antsy.
Bonnie is running out of prawns and a dish is being sent back -- undercooked and cold. She didn't order right for this dinner!
Rock's team is doing better again as Bonnie's team is falling apart more. Julia gave her grief over wrapping something up and it became a verbal brouhaha.
Service is complete. Rock thinks that Josh might have ruined his chance of winning. Bonnie's team is all hunky-dory now that it's over. Yeah, right. Now that they don't need to communicate! Rock's family visits him briefly.
When questioned by Ramsay, Rock said he would have liked to have Jen because she's the best. Bonnie would have double-checked the stations and portions.
Ramsay thinks they both came out with great leadershop abilities. He has to study the customer comment cards before giving his decision.
Ramsay tells Bonnie she's surprised him the most and he tells Rock he's rock-solid. He says it was a tough decision. They're standing at the doors. The winner is the door which opens.
And, the spoilers from the beginning of the season were right ... Rock won. Rock cries. Julia cries. And Bonnie took it so welll ... she says she's happy for him!
Well, this feels odd ... posting the East Coast Updates on the live results show on a Monday! It was more odd last week when I went to watch it and football was in its place!
I'll be updating this post with the major events of the evening and everyone's welcome to jump in with their comments.
An interesting rather creepy dance is opening the show.
One guy and one girl will go home and the remaining four will go onto the finale performance show Wednesday night. Debbie Allen announced that Cedric is indeed attending her dance school in September.
A special guest dancer, Titus, performed. Now they're doing solos. It's Sabra up first. (She's my favorite of the girls left.) Lauren is next, then Lacey. Pasha is up first for the guys, a very nice dance indeed. I love his personality although I don't think he's the best male dancer. Next is Neil. I'm liking him more each week. Then it's Danny. I think that he's technically the best dancer of the guys, but I'm no dance expert.
Oh, this is nice. SYTYCD is working with inner city after school programs. Cool!
Into a Krumping exhibition.
First girl into the finale is Lacey. The first male into the finale is Danny.
They're sending the audience home as the show isn't live. It was filmed last Thursday. Bummer for them! They didn't want the infor to leak before today.
Okay, Sabra made it into the finale ... as should be! Lauren is going home.
I have an article awaiting publishing at TV Squad. Hopefully that will pop up soon!
I'll be starting up an East Coast Updates post for the So You Think You Can Dance results show which will be starting soon here. After that, I'll be live-blogging the finale of Hell's Kitchen. Later later, I'll be posting a feeds report here.
I've uploaded a feeds clip to YouTube -- It's Jessica explaining to the ailing Eric (which is why he couldn't talk to her or anyone else) how she came about putting Dustin on the block in Daniele's place. Zach had told her he would vote for Dick to go. Both Dustin and Amber volunteered to go up against Dick, but said she should put Jen up against Daniele. Jen told her that Dustin wants Dick to stay in the house and has a deal with him. Oh, watch it for yourself! (And I had nothing to do with product placement in the clip!)
Jessica did it. Dustin is on the block, but I haven't heard whether Dick used the Veto to save Daniele or himself yet. I'm sure he was planning to save Daniele and will correct this if he didn't.
Well, it's been a bit of a snoozefest coming from the Big Brother house since yesterday afternoon. Many of the houseguests slept well into the afternoon and, as a result, are still up and wide-awake now.
But they're boring.
Sigh.
Here's what has been happening in the Big Brother House of He Said She Said:
Jen ran from a moth in the backyard. While Dick said it was a small one, Jen said it was "the size of a bird."
Eric thinks this is the best looking BB cast so far. @@
At one point Dick started to ridicule Jameka and Daniele told him to "shut up." He did.
Zach isn't the only HG who hurt himself at the food comp -- Dick has a nasty cut on his wrist.
Zach told Amber that he had a long talk with Dick about calming down some because he's going to have to be in sequester with them.
Dick is certain he'll be going home and has calmed down some.
Zach and Amber exercised together. He's put himself on a very strict regimen as he lost a lot of weight prior to coming in the house and wants to keep it off.
Daniele thinks that if Dick leaves this week, it's only her and Amber who don't fit in with the house left. (I beg to differ. I so don't care for Amber, but she seems to be in with the crowd. I think it would still be Daniele, Zach, and Jen on the outer fringes.)
Dick is sure that Jen is going on the block in his place at the POV Ceremony (later today). He told Daniele to start "getting into her head" after she goes up in an effort to work herself in with her better.
Amber told Daniele it was "sweet" that Nick left her (Daniele) his bandana to wear for good luck in comps.
Jen told Eric that Dick will be using the veto to save himself. (She may be a JenBot, but she does like to stir things up!)
The LNC Remainders are already fractioning -- Amber told Jessica that Eric should know after last week that he'll be the first target in their group.
Dustin is peeved -- he thinks Dick stole his King robe, his fake tattoos and hid the olives, too!
Amber said she's willing to go on the block as a pawn if Dustin doesn't feel comfortable. (Oh, I'd love for her to go!)
Daniele doesn't know how much she can trust Jen. (Not much, I say. Although Jen has repeatedly said she's there for fun, she's got her game on and knows what she's doing.)
Dustin no longer wants to go on the block as a pawn. He says it's because he's been arrogant and thinks that's going to hurt him. (You don't say?) He said one of the things he wanted to work on this summer is his arrogance. (I guess recognizing it is a step.)
Dustin also thinks Eric might vote to evict him if he's on the block.
Amber seems irked with Dustin over this latest.
Amber also told Dustin to stop repeating things she says about Zach to him.
They played beer pong again.
Amber isn't thrilled that Eric has been talking to Jen.
Right now as I post this, the LNC Remainders are all abuzz because Eric has been in the DR "forever." Yesterday, neither Amber or Eric went to the DR and someone named Rebecca was the voice of BB in there.
Now Eric is having an interesting talk with Jessica about working to the final two -- who they can trust and who they can't.
Once again, I ask that folks PLEASE be respectful of others in the comments area. There is no reason for the comments area to be like the house. We're better than that! I don't care which houseguest is your favorite -- each of these folks this year have flaws and those flaws are likely to be dwelled upon by those who don't like them. No one need to constantly defend why they like so-and-so or insult others because they do or don't. It all boils down to ... this is a game. We don't know these houseguests and, in the end, they won't affect our personal lives.
The show will be starting about ten minutes (or so) late here in the NYC area due to golf. @@
Once it starts, I'll be updating this post throughout the show as it airs. In doing so, I'm bound to commit a few typos or misspellings, so you've been warned!
Please feel free to jump in with your thoughts in the comments area -- they're always the highlight of the show blog entry! Right now Andy Rooney is on, so it will be just a few minutes more.
Recap, recap, period end of story. They're evicting Kail all over again. Now reliving the HOH comp. Finally, to the show's opening music.
Now it's to Dick confronting folks. Everyone is looking uncomfortable. Amber won't forget what Eric did and will watch him. To the HOH comp and Jessica's win... the LNC Remainders are gleeful to say the least. Daniele thinks she and Evel got played and the LNC knew what they were doing all along. Dick promises more damage before he leaves. It's hard to take Bunny People seriously in stand-offs.
Jameka's finger-waving at Dick reminds me of what's-her-name on Survivor that season -- the one who got mad at Kimmie over the chickens.
It's a brouhaha, folks! A veritable brouhaha!
"You're a hypocrite!" "Yo mama!" (I bet they'll never show her calling his mother a bitch like she did.)
Zach tells us the peasants are revolting. Jameka chants "I love you God" over and over again. Dick tried to talk to Jameka later, but she wanted no part of it. The LNC Remainders were love-festing and fist-pumping over their victory.
Daniele cries to Dick about how much she hates everything. Evel tells her it's all because Dustin's a liar. She cries some more. Dick is being very good with her. He tells us that the most important thing to him is his relationship with his daughter.
Jessica tells Amber that although she's close to Eric, she's in it for herself. She tells us she's never been a target of Dick's.
Time for the HOH room, booyah! Dick and Daniele went and both acted decently despite their upset. Unlike Jen, Jessica liked her photos.
Back to Daniele's sobfest and Dick trying to console her. He promises her that if they both go up on the block, he'll make sure he's the one who goes home. He will create problems so they want him out.
In the kitchen with Jameka, he goes at Jameka again and then Amber jumps in. He's making the comments about her drug recovery and other. Oh, he knows how to push those buttons! And Amber's face is a dead giveaway when he gets to her!
Whoa! They aired the "your mother's a bitch" comment from Jameka! I'm shocked! Dustin peeked into the kitchen and backed away.
More church music as Amber prays and cries about what Dick said and regreets her drug days.
(Please, God... just make her go away!)
Dick is so mean, help me please! (That's Amber, not me. I don't think Dick would be mean to me.)
Daniele and Jen are talking. Daniele promises Jen that from here on out, she has her back. Jen is actually a good listening post. JenBot even seems to be happy to finally be getting along with Daniele. She thinks they could be a good team.
"It's time to rock and roll" -- the food comp -- BB Benefit Cncert. BB Blues and BB Rockers, Zach wanted to be blue, but Dick grabbed the red bandanas out of his hand. 200 guitars and two stages in the backyard. Inside each guitar is a dollar sign or a slop sign. The first team to get to 20 $ wins food.
There's a one week slop pass inside one guitar. Smashing the guitars seems to get some of their frustrations out. Dick got the slop pass. Amber told us from the DR with tears in her eyes that God directed her to the guitars with the dollar signs.
The Blue Team won -- Zach, Jameka, Eric, and Amber will eat. Dick gave the slop pass to Jen and Daniele claimed it was her advice -- he wanted to give it to her, but she thought it better to give to Jen for strategic reasons.
Ah, Zach likes his bunny suit! We need something lighthearted. He's getting in touch with his inner bunny. Amber knocked it, but I think it's fun.
America's Player -- Eric is surprised and not pleased that America chose Dustin.
Dustin is calling Dick all kinds of white trash names after Dick left the backyard. He tells Jessica to put him up next to Dick because he's the honest one and Dick is the "scumbag." Eric's expression made me snicker. He's using it to further America's cause.
New America's Player -- To which HG should Eric give the silent treatment? Now, if you really want to mess him up, vote Jessica.
I'm evil.
Nominations Today -- Same old, same old descriptions and Jessica choosing keys. Dick tells us he'll make sure he goes and Daniele stays if they're both on the block.
They gather around the table. Dustin looks smug. Amber looks like she's been crying. Jessica said she made the decision following her heart:
Key order: Jameka, Jen, Eric, Amber, Zach, Dustin is last.
Jessica tells D&D that she's doing this to get back over Eric almost going, the person she's closest to in the house. Jessica tells us that she's really gunning for Daniele to leave, not Dick.
Zach and Evel Dick are presently sitting outside talking world issues as I post this report.
Not horribly exciting, eh? But it's Sunday, their traditional really quiet day in the house.
Here are today's big events from that Big Brother House of Future World Leaders:
The HG staggered to life anytime from around 11 AM (their time) until well into the afternoon. Which, of course, is just shy of evening for me! Some are still asleep!
Dick talked to the cameras, and thus us, saying he's wanted to do the show for three years, was a finalist for seasons 5 and 6, then they pulled "her" in as his secret partner, then they showed up bumping into each other at an open casting call and BB snagged 'em. So, this means that we almost saw Evel Dick and Daniele working as secret partners in season 6. Very interesting, eh?
Dick thinks that if Daniele wasn't in the house, he wouldn't have lasted even two weeks.
Zach and Jen talked about the need for one of them to win HOH -- if not, they know they're targets.
Dick messed with the kitchen faucet once again.
Dick told stories about Amsterdam, people he knows, and stuff.
Much of today is just small talk so far, but it seems Dick still plans to use the veto to save Daniele.
Later, at 8 PM ET, I'll be live-blogging the show as it airs here in the NYC area. Please drop on by and share your thoughts in the comments! And, as always, bring your own snacks, please!
I'm sorry. I just can't take any of this season's houseguests seriously. What to do? Set a mix of screen caps and Zoetawny graphics to the tune of "The Chicken Dance" and slap it up on YouTube.
Since it's an Evel POV, graphic arteest Zoetawny used her mad skillz to make us this image. Cool!
Ah, but I'm late, I'm late, I'm late for a very important date. No time to say hello, goodbye, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late.
Forgive my Adventures of Alice in Wonderland moment as well as being a bit late with this report, please!
Here's the skinny from inside that Big Brother House of Despicable Despots and Monster Shouters:
Daniele cried and whined to anyone who would listen about how rough it's been for her to be blamed for all of her father's volatile actions and words.
Eric made another comment (not to Daniele or Evel Dick) about Daniele having Dick's baby. What the hell is wrong with him?
Jessica and Eric don't think Amber has any chance of winning any competitions because she hasn't done well on one yet.
With his LNC Minions about him, Dustin complained about Daniele's "pity party" and deemed her unhappiness all her own fault.
The LNC Remainders think that Zach threw the POV comp because it was things he should be good at -- croquet and drinking large amounts of disgusting liquids.
As they all plan to stay in the HOH room, Eric mentions that they're probably being compared to the Nerd Herd from Season 6. "No way!" says Amber. Ha, way!
Evel Dick wants to try to cause problems between Eric and Dustin.
Daniele and Dick talked about how Zach threw the comp and how funny it is that the others think he really tried. @@
Jameka removed the braids she put in Amber's ghetto-fabulous hair the other day.
Zach, Daniele, Eric, and Jessica played Beer Pong, a drinking game.
HG from both sides of the fence tried to figure out what kind of businesses Kail really owns.
Of course, they have no clue that she practically owns her town! ;-)
Dick told Jameka that she went too far when she made comments about his mother and daughter. That showed him what kind of person she is.
After basically just staring at Dick as he talked, she reported the conversation to King of Queens Dustin.
Then Dick started on Dustin again, not as bad as early in the morning.
Jameka told Amber she likes Dustin, doesn't quite trust Eric although she'd like him outside of the house, and thinks Zach is a phony.
Amber told Jameka that she hates Evel Dick. No kidding! I think the feeling's mutual there.
Dustin thinks Evel Dick is jealous of him because he's "got a group."
Amber wants to be an inspirational speaker. (No, I'm not making these things up!)
Dustin doesn't think Dick will use the veto to save Daniele. (I think he will. Even if he doesn't want to, I think he'll feel obligated to use it on her for father/daughter reasons.)
Dustin offered to go up as a pawn. (That would be an incredibly foolish move, but we'll see.)
They're all sleeping snug in their beds with visions of ax-murderers in their heads as I post this...
The feeds have returned and it sounds like Dick won POV. Everyone else, including Zach and Daniele are talking with Daniele defending her position in the house. Since Amber said, "We can only hope HE uses it to save you." -- it has to be Dick. Eric, Dustin, and Zach -- the only other "he's" are in the room with her.
Go, Jess! Go, Jess! Like, because you're the HOH! Whatever.
Zoetawny has her cheer down pat!
Since the initial shake-up in the house, things have been almost predictable. Now, I wanted the shake-up. I like watching when there are problems.
Alas, the problems have been keeping themselves apart. So, the action is down a bit.
Here's the latest from the Big Brother House of Gossip-Mongering Gaddabouts:
Jessica had to explain drive-in movies to Eric. He's never seen one.
They all took turns practicing croquet.
Dick continued to rant on Jameka about her faith -- calling her a hemorrhoid on Christianity.
Jameka, for the past few days, has started saying "yippie skippy" on and off all the time in a high voice. Make her stop.
Dick told Daniele he'd like to punch Dustin. Daniele suggested he take his robe and crown instead.
Amber is worried that Eric and Dustin are in a secret alliance. She might have to cry about it.
Jessica and Amber agree that out of the two nominees, Daniele is the better player and should be evicted.
Dick threw one of Dustin's shirts (not a grey one, darn it) on the roof when Dustin wasn't looking. He also hid one of Jen's headbands behind the washing machine (because it didn't throw well).
Meanwhile, the LNC Remainders talked about not getting up to say goodbye on the Thursday live show.
Jameka and Jessica stayed up later talking and giggling a lot in the HOH bed.
They're asleep as I get this posted.
The POV comp should be held later today. I'll be posting the results of that tonight. It sounds like Jessica will replace a nominee with Jen if one is removed.
My latest TV Squad entry is in the publishing queue, but I thought I'd bring you up to date here.
First, thanks to all who took part in the naming one good thing about each houseguest bit in my previous entry! It was a lot of fun to watch the struggle! ;-)
As expected, Jessica nominated Dick and Daniele. The POV comp is apparently going to be croquet and both camps have been practicing, although Daniele and Dick seemed a bit more serious about it.
Eric's been suggesting Dustin goes up as a replacement nominee if the veto is used. Jen and Zach are successfully mingling with both groups. The POV comp will be held on Saturday as usual.
Someone in comments asked for a refresher on how a double eviction week works. If memory serves, the new HOH immediately nominates two for eviction. Then on Friday POV is played, Saturday is POV Meeting, Sunday is live eviction and new HOH. Then it all goes as normal once again.
Here are today's events from the Big Brother House of Hugs and Kisses:
Now Daniele and Evel think the odd votes could have been a mix of Dustin, Amber, and Eric. Most of the mind change there is because Julie cast doubt on the Eric theory when talking to Daniele in HOH.
Dick plans to mock religion in the POV comp to bug Jameka.
They've been having a huge ant problem in the kitchen. This has been going on for a few days now.
The food comp was held today. Dick got a slop pass which he gave to Jen. They seemed to have to swing at something (pinatas?) and smash 'em. Zach cut his hand during the comp but enjoyed it although he said it wasn't a good outcome. I think Dustin is on slop, perhaps Zach.
Amber told Jameka that she knows that she'll win HOH for the final three and have to break her promise to take Dustin to the final two with her. @@ Delusional much?
Jameka thinks that Amber can see the future. (I don't even have a witty remark for that one. Anyone?)
Jen's ear is still bothering her.
Amber kept talking about getting all the money signs -- I'm thinking it was something to do with winning money in the food comp. She's not on slop, so maybe that's all the money signs bought her.
The LNC Remainders have been talking about nominations -- it seems that Dick and Daniele will be going on the block, surprise surprise!
Amber thinks she cries too much. Gee, I hadn't noticed.
She can't control it. (Well, learn!)
That's about it. I thought with all the controversy in comments (although for the most part they're really great -- about the houseguests, not the fellow commenters, thank you) -- I think we should all say one nice thing about each houseguest. You game? I'll even go first!
Amber: One of the best criers I've ever seen! Kudos! Eric: One really good eyebrow! Daniele: Very pretty smile! Jessica: Can sleep through anything, a quality envied by many! Dustin: Nice eyes! Jen: Calm and collected! Zach: Interesting comic book knowledge! Dick: Has accomplished the feat of blowing smoke rings to the level of professional. Jameka: Despite her worries, she fits in fine with a house of crazy white people!
Uh-oh. Whose eye is that? Zoetawny made me a new logo tag for posts!
After a very explosive show, whatever could those hamsters be up to while running in their wheels in that Big Brother House of Societal Misfit Toys?
Here's the skinny for you:
BB held the HG in an indoor lockdown while they did something in the backyard.
Jessica told Eric that she had told Zach she wouldn't put him on the block.
Zach told Dick that "they" would be voting him (Dick) out no matter what. He suggested a smear campaign making up things about Dustin. (C'mon, Zach ... don't stick your own neck out when you're safe for the moment!)
Imitating the BB recorded voice which says things like, "Houseguests, you are not allowed to talk about your Diary Room sessions with other houseguests," Dick said, "Amber, please cry like a little #&%@&"
Jameka plopped herself down with Evel Dick and Daniele prompting him to make a few choice remarks about religion and calling her a hypocrite.
Jameka reacted in almost a Dick-like manner. So much for all of the religion being a true driving force. Scary!
I won't use the language used by either Dick or Jameka here.
Dustin called Dick a "white trash washed-up deadbeat dad." Amber told Dick he should commit suicide. (I actually think that's closer to her mind than Dick's -- she seems to be the one with the real instability problems more than him despite his tactics.)
Jen said the DR seemed to want her to vote for Eric to stay. (Obviously she did what she wanted to do as she voted to evict him.)
Dick says that if he's leaving, he's going to go out with a bang.
Daniele said that the DR told her to expect another twist this week. (We really should be about ready for a double eviction, but what else could happen?)
Eric made more incest remarks about Daniele and Dick, this time with Amber chiming in.
Zach thinks he's almost invisible in the game -- Julie has only asked him one question ever and that was about the streaking incident.
Dick, Daniele, and Zach think they need to swing Jessica to their side but she's taken in by Eric.
Dustin told Zach that "they" are going to the sequester house one by one each week.
Eric told Jessica she should put Dustin on the block. They both laughed, but I can't help but think that was America's Player's choice this week -- Dustin.
Dick is sure he's going home this week.
I'm sure that there will be some interesting blow-ups this week!
