BB9: Live Feeds Into the afternoon 2/21

Hey, if I have to suffer watching him pop his pimples when I'm sick, so do you.

Here's the lowdown from inside the Big Brother House of Mean People:

• After their big HOH, James and Chelsia got all snuggly. His gay porn days might have been just for the money, I guess.
• Chelsia later got drunk.
• There were more whispers about the lesbian lovers. Most have really bought into the story. Have you? ;-)
• Ryan and Adam realize the lesbian lovers bit is a lie and don't seem upset.
• Sharon thinks the Allison/Sheila alliance is strong and needs to be broken up.
• Sharon is wary of "screwing over" everyone and then not winning in the end.
• Sunday is the bikini day, Monday is the margarita party.
• Joshauh doesn't want to go on the block, not as a pawn, not as anything.
• James didn't go up to the HOH room until the wee hours after falling asleep downstairs.
• The HG really overdid it with the alcohol and many have headaches. Amanda doesn't think they'll get any more alcohol for a few days.
• Matt told James that they almost shaved off his mohawk while he was passed out.
• They don't like the no hot water, Sheila seems especially irked.
• Nominations are today, but haven't been made yet as I get this written up.
• James thinks Adam, Sheila, and Allison are playing the game dirty, spreading rumors and stuff.
• The feeds were blocked for a food comp which was apparently quite physical.
• Adam, Sheila, Amanda, and Alex are on slop.
• Sheila is fussing about her health.
• Alex thinks the table got smaller, but no one else does.
  

'Big Brother 9' - Live Eviction East Coast Updates 2/20

I've been asked to post my actual show review over on TV Squad tonight, but will post the big news as it airs here on the East Coast. Your comments are welcome!

8:35 PM ET Update -- Still no eviction. They've laid it out like could be a tie with Adam and Sheila still up in the air. It's not going to go down that way, I'm sure.

The votes were not live and they didn't reveal how each couple voted. It was 3-1 for Jen and Parker to go.

Chelsia and James are the new HOH couple.

BB9 - Live Feeds Happenings ... and Stuff

Yep, the cams are all trivia now, have been for a while, and I expect things to remain pretty much blocked into the live eviction show.

I'm still feeling way under the weather here, but was asked to review tonight's episode for TV Squad as the regular reviewer can't do it. I said I would. So, I'll just have an east coast update post here once the show starts and I'll definitely get the boot and new HOH news posted on this blog.

In other live feeds news from that Big Brother House of Wayward Whackos:

• Sheila said being Pet of the Year (Penthouse) only paid $5,000.
• Amanda tried to get an alliance going -- her, Alex, Joshuah, and Sharon. Joshuah didn't seem too receptive.
• Matt talked about when he was on Fear Factor.
• James thinks there's only five weeks left. He's not considering that the couples may be split up long before then.
• Joshuah and Sharon know that if they vote to save Parker and Jen they would be targeted.
• The fact that Allison has said she didn't really need the money is indeed coming back to haunt her as I said it would. She told them the other day she earns over 100 grand a year.
• The girls are talking yeast infections from the hot tub. Ewww.
• BB made an announcement that everyone with tattoos must cover the inappropriate ones while the ShoToo BBAD is on. Geez!
• Natalie is still way more into Matt than Matt will ever be into her. Wake up, girl!
• Parker still hopes the vote is a tie (but I don't think it will be).
• Jen and Ryan went at it ... again. At least it was in bed, not the bathroom stall.
• Much of today has been cleaning, primping and blocked feeds.
  

'Big Brother 9' - Live Blogged from the East Coast - Feb. 19

Another great graphic from Zoetawny!

The show has started here on the east coast. I'll be constantly updating this post as it airs. Please be warned that I'm somewhat under the weather -- my typing speed and accuracy (in typing) might be a bit off tonight.

Of course, you're welcome to comment. I swear I won't pass on the flu to you!

Recap city. It's too bad they didn't show Joshuah running again to tell Neil the lesbian secret. That was the best part of that!

Jen's all weepy and it's her own darn fault. Had they kept a secret it would be diffrent. Parker and Allison are both blaming thir partners for being on the block ... as they should at this point.

Amanda ... bueno is NOT a greeting.

There. I got that out of my system.

Parker and Amanda have a thing for each other, but we already knew that. Joshuah explains how he chose Sharon to replace Neil. And all they said was "family emergency." When Sharon found out that Jen lied (basically) on the first day when she said (or omitted) that she knew no one in the house.

Amanda thinks Alex is mean to her. Alex thinks she "flaunts her stuff." So Parker massages her. Alex thinks she's letting her emotions interfere with her game.

Lovebirds ... Jen and Ryan. Jen tells us how cuddly and touchy-feely her relationship with Ryan is. "We are human. We have needs." Oh, great. We're going to get the sex in the bathroom stall bit.

Sheila and Allison are back on thir lesbian lovers story. Chelsia tells James. He falls for it and thinks that's why Sheila has been mean to Adam and there could be other couples.

When James voices his suspicions to Alex, Alex thinks Amandar (as he says it) and Parker have a previous relationship. Amanda freaks out at Alex because she put her hand on the Bible!

Parker gets bent out of shape and confronts James ... and it was never James who even said Parker and Amanda! Preschool! Amanda thinks Alex created the whole drama-fest out of jealousy. @@

My God. These people all deserve each other.

Alex tells Amanda that it bothers him that she walks around like a slut. She gets upset. I'm not sure why he has feelings for her. What is wrong with the cast? These are not love matches! Sheesh.

It's onto picking players for the veto comp. Joshuah will host, and Matt and Natalie were randomly selected to participate. Matt told Parker he'd use it to save him, but told us he won't.

The yard is all hearts. One is on a heart and the partner will spin while the spinning person holds a panic button. I'm getting sick watching them spin. Allison's finger came off the button. Amanda deliberately let go of her button. Alex is ticked off at her. Matt and Natalie won. Jen blames the loss on Parker.

Matt is still playing Parker in that he'll use the veto to save him. Silly Parker.

Amanda walks out on Alex because he told her he doesn't want to cuddle and wants to concentrate on his game. He's definitely not keen on her relationship with Parker ... and I know from watching the feeds, she's all over Parker!

It's time for the POV ceremony. It bothers Matt that Parker is paired with Jen. He'd save Parker by himself in a moment. With the couples thing, if the winning POV holders can't agree, it's not used. They don't use it claiming Alex and Amanda put them up in the best interest of the house. Parker tells us whatever. Jen is ready to fight.

Parker just looks so dejected.

Bloggy Stuff, Big Brother 9, Etc.

Blech. I don't believe it's a cold which hit me so quickly and hard. I think I have the flu. I feel horrible, didn't go into work today because I can barely hold my head up (except to cough).

At least the houseguests are cooperating. Nothing much has gone down in the past 24 hours. I have a new report up on TV Squad.

I plan to live blog tonight's show (unless I conk out beforehand), so please stop back during the show!

Oh ... I did love Dexter the other night and plan to watch it each week. However, I won't be blogging about it on a regular basis because it's on late at night and Monday mornings can be a bear at work.

BB9 - Live Feeds Into the Evening - Feb. 18

Argh. I woke up today with the world's worst cold. Right now I'm pumped up with Dayquil, but blech. So it this seems a bit short and sweet, it's me not them. Well, it could be them. Yeah, I'll blame them.

Here's the real basics of what happened in the Big Brother House of Those Who Can't Make it With Real Jobs:

• Ryan said he doesn't believe in interracial relationships (yet Jen is partnered with Parker).
• Parker says he will refuse to talk in the DR or at media appearances. He says the contract says he has to show up, but doesn't address actual talking.
• Joshuah and Sheila tried to figure out who's more hateful -- Amanda or Jen.
• Alex told Matt that BB was begging Parker to go to the DR and he refused.
• Jen seems irked that the cameras are watching her. Well, duh.
• Parker is still mad that he was coupled with Jen.
• Amanda said she cried all night and had planned to stay in the HOH room all day.
• Amanda told Natalie they can't trust Jen and she's probably going home.
• Someone poured water on Allison/Ryan's bed last night and they have all kinds of theories.
• Jen has a rashon the back of her legs and asked that the BB doctor check it out.
• BB gave them a scale so they can weigh themselves. Joy, joy.
• Amanda is still upset at Josh and went on about she had never even kissed Parker yet.
• Lots of small talk and that's about it. No fireworks today ... yet.
  

My Latest Feeds Report ...

... will be up at TV Squad later this morning!

BB9 - Live Feeds Upate - Into the Evening 2/17

I've already told you the biggest news -- the nominations are remaining the same. Here's more from that Big Brother House of Dastardly Dawgs and the Bimbos Who Fall For Them:

• Matt and Parker would like to see James go. Of course, Parker might be gone long before James is even on the block.
• Ryan admitted he likes Allison and could see hanging with her, but Jen thinks she's a goody-two-shoes.
• Parker spent most of the day moping around.
• Parker and Amanda talked. He told her it's unattractive to keep being reminded of his faults. He also told her that he didn't go into the hot tub last night because James was in there with his "nasty ass."
• Amanda and Parker kissed.
  
• Natalie thinks that Amanda has backstabbed her (by telling Matt that she's interested in him after the game?) and let Joshuah, Sharon, and Ryan know that she's only pretended to be her friend since the first day.
• Allison told Amanda that she asked Ryan who the biggest threat in the house is and he told her Parker (not surprising since he's up on the block against Parker, eh?). He then said the second biggest threat is Amanda/Alex. Mind you, she's telling Amanda this.
• Sharon thinks Jen is a backstabber.
• Both Sheila and Sharon talked about how stupid it was for Jen and Ryan to tell anyone they're a couple. Duh.
• They're mad that Parker said the women in the house are only a 6.
• Parker thinks that the only attractive woman in the house is Amanda.
• Jackie thinks Parker has bad taste.
• Sheila thought Alex was attractive until he said how much he wanted Amanda (?) but said she wouldn't "do" any of the guys in the house.
• Parker thinks that Sheila might have been an 8 in her Penthouse days.
• A big brouhaha broke out over Parker and his 6 call. @@
• Jen told Allison that she hopes America realizes that she's on the block because she wouldn't vote out her boyfriend ... she's just that loyal to him! Yeah, right.
• Jen also indicated that she's sure to win and she was so sorry Allison would have to go.
• The HG think that the $750 a week stipend isn't enough. I think the viewers should all be paid $750 a week to watch!
• Matt talked to Alex and Adam about his sexual opinion of the girls. I pity any woman in his life. He's a dawg pig!
• He claimed to the camera for his ex-girlfriend that he wouldn't and didn't "sex" anyone. Um. Lost cause boy here. There, not here. Thankfully.
• Adam told Matt and Alex he would keep his word to vote out Allison and Ryan, but he wasn't sure of Sheila.
• Jen told Parker and Sharon that Sheila told Allison she'd vote her out.
• Meanwhile, Allison and Sheila are all kinds of chummy with the exception of lesbian lover chummy.
• Matt told Parker he's playing Allison.
• Amanda and Natalie are in the hot tub as I get this posted. They think James and Matt are fighting, but Alex said they weren't when they asked.
• Apparently there is something going on -- Sharon just confirmed it. Natalie ran off saying she had to talk to "Matty." @@
  

These people are whacked.

'Big Brother 9 ' - Live Blogged from the East Coast - 2/17

The show has started here on the East Coast. As it airs, I'll constantly be updating this post. Please forgive any typos. And, of course, please feel free to jump in with your comments!

Oh, it's a memory wall. Matt's full of himself and how good-looking he is. Parker and James talk about how big Jen's mouth is about how great looking she is. Why aren't James and Parker going off about Matt? Of course, Matt told us, not them. Jen said because she was first on the wall, it means she will win.

Allison is SO not happy about Ryan having his girlfriend Jen in the house. She confides in Parker. Allison is threatening to reveal the "secret" that Jen and Ryan are boyfriend/girlfriend. Allison wants to convince Ryan to go against Jen. Ryan promised Jen he would choose to ally with her over Jen.

Amanda tells all that her father committed suicide. Although it's all probably true, I think she's putting the rest of the house through a bit of a guilt trip. She tells them that that's why she is always happy and smiling.

Even Chelsia thinks more of Amanda now.

HOH room reveal. There's a nautical theme and a photo of Amanda and Alex. Alex also has a cross he made from the WTC where his father died on 9/11. AHA! I just thought of who Amanda reminds me of -- Jason Bateman!

Allison is having real difficulties dealing with the couple situation paired with Ryan. She says she's done. Everyone (Parker and Jen) want her to just shut up and deal with it.

James tells Jen that Adam's name is the Hooded Warrior. Adam tells them he's uncircumsized. He shows them all. This is just too weird.

Allison seeks out Sheila for emotional support. Parker and Ryan discuss putting everyone onto Jen and Ryan beofre Allison spills the beans. He tells Alex and Matt. Alex is concerned that he waited before telling them. Now they mistrust Parker to an extent. Then it's off to tell Natalie and Amanda. Amanda is ticked that Jen kept a secret from her.

Allison tells Matt that they told her not to tell and she's mad that they did say something. Matt told her that they only told a few people. Matt tries to get Allison on his side.

Jen is way smug when confronted by Allison and freaks a bit. Allison just looks shocked at her reaction. Argue, argue, fuss, fuss. Now Sheila knows. Allison is pushing that she didn't tell anyone (she didn't come out and tell Shelia earlier), but Jen did.

Allison is crying to Joshuah and Neil about it all. Now the house wonders what other secrets might be out there. (Maybe they'll find out Neil is Sharon!) They all swear on the Bible that they know no one in the house.

Alex and Matt immediately click and promise to partner to the end. A new alliance is born -- Alex/Amanda and Matt/Natalie. They decide to put up Ryan and Jen and Parker and Allison ... not necessarily in that order!

Sheila and Allison grow closer. As a matter of fact, they decided they'll be lesbian lovers. They're having fun, but then tell Joshuah they're in a relationship. They ask him not to tell anyone. He's shocked. He's in disbelief.

Josh runs to tell Neil after he promised secrecy. Neil cracked up. Then they tell Chelsia they're partners and adopted a son.

Sheila talks to Parker about her issues with Adam. "Nothing he can say or do can redeem himself." Alex thinks Sheila is mean to Adam. Now Alex and Matt are defending Adam and Parker's just giggling.

Adam confronts Sheila, she runs off screaming expletives. The others think it puts a target on Sheila and Adam and Shiela is crumpled crying on her bed as the commercial starts.

Nominations today. Allison is worried and thinks that the Ryan/Jen coupling will get her nominated. Adam thinks if he and Sheila get nominated, it will be Sheila's fault for making him look bad.

I just can't stand Allison's voice.

Time for the nominations ceremony. Key order is: Sheila and Adam, James and Chelsia. Matt and Natalie, Neil and Joshuah.

They say that the reason is because of the previous relationship between Jena and Ryan. Allison thinks Jen made her own bed. Jen is crying and then acts stupid and smug in the DR. Parker is nowhere near smug. Alex thinks they should suffer.

Latest BB9 Feeds Schtuff

My most recent feeds report is over on TV Squad.

Although that was written hours ago and since then the hamsters have all arisen, there really isn't a heck of a lot of new news.

The PoV ceremony was supposed to go down at 12 noon their time, but may or may not have happened. The feeds have been blocked for a few intervals, but there's been no concrete confirmation that the event has occurred. The current indications seem to be that the nominations will probably not be changed.

Natalie is upset that Amanda called her a whore. Um, well, too bad, so sad. Not that Amanda's all that much better, but you make your bed, you lie in it, Natalie. Open your eyes ... Matt cares nothing about you no matter what you do under the covers!

I'll be live-blogging tonight's show from here on the east coast and will post another feeds report here later this evening.

UPDATE: PoV was NOT used, noms remain Parker/Jen and Ryan/Allison.

TV Newsy Bits - Sunday, February 17, 2008

Now, what the heck is that, you ask? Is it a phone? Is it a Supertramp album? Neither. It's a bin which holds bags of salt at the Bound Brook NJ Transit Train Station. The Supertramp graffiti stencil caught my eye. Unless there's a new movement for the band, I'd imagine it's been there for well over a decade, perhaps two.

I've noticed that since I found out exactly how bad my knee is, it seems to hurt more. Ow. It's back to work tomorrow after a week off. Wah. But I have a lot to do to prepare before the surgery -- quad-strengthening exercises, save money towards insurance deductibles, stockpile canned goods and other necessities for a long confinement, etc. I already know the supermarkets in the area who deliver, plus the good folks at the local corner store have volunteered to bring over anything I might need. Then I'll have to get my apartment totally set up for the maximum use with minimum movement.

I'll take another vacation week (I have five) before going under the knife (or saw ...eek!) mainly to get the apartment set up. I don't want to spend time in a rehab facility but understand it's going to be very rough for at least the first few weeks. But it will all be worth it. If I take a vacation next year at this time, I'll be able to photo-stomp Chinatown for the Lunar New Year, something I had hoped to feel up to this year but couldn't.

In the Lost news department -- I screwed up recording the show and somehow recorded the wrong channel. Ack. I tried to watch it online at ABC, but something is screwy with their video versus my computer. I get the audio fine, but only a white box in lieu of the video. I'll have to rerecord it this week when it repeats on Thursday. Grr.

I'll be posting a feeds update a bit later over on TV Squad. I'm having some trouble not making it all sound like porn.

Enough of this ... it's onto today's TV newsy bits:

• We all know by now, the WGA strike is OVER! Yay, the writers got a decent package! TV Squad has about all the strike news you need to know right here. That includes articles on when shows we love (or hate) can be expected back.
• An extremely odd note -- I'm not finding an interviews with Mary, Survivor's boot from last week. The sites which usually have exclusive interviews with the castaways have nada with her. Very odd.
• American Idol will feature songs of the '60s next week, like that's never been done before. Now, I have to admit that I enjoy that era but I always wonder what the teens who are so hung up on the show think about it. Aren't there good songs from the new generation out there?
• Speaking of American Idol, there's a brouhaha brewing over Carly Smithson who had a professional record deal under a different last name a few years back. Should she be allowed to compete? Of course, I just like to use the phrase "brouhaha brewing" and don't have any real stake in things whether she's in it or not.
• According to The Hollywood Reporter, the recent episode of Lost had its worst ratings of the season. I feel it's my fault. I'm sorry. I swear I'll watch the repeat next week!
• So You Think You Can Dance (about the only dancing show I get into) will return on May 22. Fine, I'll be out of commission for a few weeks around that time, but I'll surely manage to watch the show ... even in the hospital room.

Today's musical non-sequitur:
Could we have kippers for breakfast
Mummy dear, Mummy dear
They got to have 'em in Texas
'Cuz everyone's a millionaire
--"Breakfast in America" by Supertramp

BB9 - Through the Day - Saturday, Feb. 16

Yes, graphic artist Zoetawny nailed it with this one, didn't she?

Remember ... we wanted this season. It's all our own darn fault for getting so hyped up for an out of the ordinary winter season.

The couples just aren't working for me (nor for most whose comments I've read). I guess if you're a teenager yourself or into quasi-porn, maybe it's fine with you. But most adults are getting turned off, at least from the feeds. It's possible they'll show just enough to up the ratings for the aired shows, I guess.

Anyhow, here are the events from inside that Big Brother House of Low Morals Embarrass Yo' Mama Nincompoops since I last reported:

• I'm under the firm impression that the HG should be told that BBAD (ShoToo live feeds coverage) is canceled. They act like bigger jerks during that time because they think it makes for "good TV."
• Parker, Amanda, and Matt joked about Matt "doing" Allison, then she goes home and he'll "do" the next one, then eviction.
• Allison didn't fall for it. Good.
• Natalie is still all agog over Matt and he couldn't care less about her.
• Jen and Parker think that Matt will convince Natalie to use the veto to save them.
• Alex and Amanda aren't happy together, but we knew that. And, I'm sure it's not going to improve any.
• Parker is worried about Alex campaigning to get him and Jen gone.
• He really wants Matt to use the veto. Of course, Matt AND Natalie have to agree on that and it would mean that the couple (non-coupling on the show) Jen and Ryan would both remain. I think everyone in the house wants to split them up no matter whose side they're on. The actual couple is too strong of a basic alliance to keep together in the house.
• Amanda and Chelsia talked about Sheila growing on them and Allison causing issues.
• Matt is worried that if he uses the veto it'll put a target on his back.
• Sheila was up first again, must be an older generation thing, eh?
• Matt thinks the difference between him and Natalie vs. Alex and Amanda is that his partner likes him and he can "puppetmaster" her. Alas, he's probably right. Natalie's a bimbo. I can see why she's a bikini barista.
• Parker thinks that Big Brother is racist and complained that he hasn't received anything he's requested.
• Sheila, the ex-Penthouse Pet (whatever), told the others she would never have sex on television. My respect for her has increased although I don't particularly care for her.
• Amanda told Matt that Alex was touching her as he thought she was sleeping. True? I personally doubt it unless he's just some kind of sex fiend. He doesn't like her.
• She asked Matt to tell her if Alex says anything mean about her. Oh, my God ... it's gone from 5th grade down to 3rd.
• Joshuah and Sharon also know of her "touching" story and think if Alex knew she was saying it, he'd go crazy.
• Matt thinks the ratings for the show will be in the top ten. Yeah, right. I don't think so!
• Amanda and Alex are not talking to each other, very pointedly. @@
• Nataie's all upset that Allison told Matt that she (Nat) could see herself dating after the show. "She wasn't supposed to tell!" Oh, geez.
• It's finally dawned on them that eviction isn't Sunday, it's Wednesday.
• Natalie told James and Adam that she doesn't want to use the veto -- one of them (Jen or Ryan) has to go. (But will her personal puppetmaster try to change her mind? Or is he just telling Parker he may use it and doesn't plan to do so at all?)
• When Natalie went crying to Matt about Allison, he told her not to worry -- he doesn't believe anything anyone says about her unless it comes from her. She was relieved. He turned to the camera, winked, and smiled.
• Amanda now wants to go home because of Alex. She, of course, ran to Parker with her woes.
• Allison is sure she'll stay if the nominations remain the same. She and Sheila agree that Alex is running the show (of Amanda and Alex).
• Josh and Sharon think it will be fun to watch the reactions when Jen and Parker are sent packing. Then they talked about dropping a hints they might go so Amanda doesn't freak out about losing her Parker.
• They both think Amanda is a whacko.
• In an Alex/Amanda discussion, Amanda told him that she thinks they have the votes for Ryan and Allison to be evicted. She said although Parker is getting her mad (huh?), Allison hates her so she wants her gone.
• Amanda says that she and Alex are the only two in the house who have never done any drugs. (Obviously, drug use or not doesn't matter when you're WHACKO!)

And that's all she wrote.
;-)

Feeds Update and ...

My latest Big Brother 9 feeds update is up over on TV Squad.

I also have another post there with a sexy Survivor calendar! :-)

BB9 - Live Feeds Into the Day - Feb. 15

Yes, it is indeed another Zoetawny graphic! She's one busy little bee these days, isn't she?

I probably won't be getting to my Lost review until tomorrow as I haven't watched the episode yet. My apologies to those who are waiting.

But you're not here at this post just to get Lost, right? Nope!

You want the latest scuttlebutt from that Big Brother House of Maliciously Mingling Malcontents!

So let's get to the events of the day --

• Horrors. BB woke them up shortly before 9 AM their time and made them all go upstairs.
• Matt told Parker that even if he (Parker and Jen) win PoV, Ryan will probably stay. It seems like the intended PoV replacement remains Adam and Sheila. They would have fewer on their side than Ryan and Allison.
• Matt told Parker he wants Allison out of the house. He's previously said how much he supports Parker and doesn't like Ryan.
• After all the whining about the cold, they're delighted that it's warm there today.
• Matt and Natalie were the couple pulled from the hat to compete for PoV with the HoH couple (Alex and Amanda) and the two nominated couples -- Ryan/Allison and Jen/Parker.
• After extensive small talk sessions and a period of blocked feeds, the PoV was finished. I request they don't do trivia but give us the Guinea Pig Cam instead for extended blocks.
• As I mentioned earlier, Matt and Natalie won PoV.
• Amanda told Chelsia that they won't use it because Ryan and Jen must be split up.
• Joshuah hosted the comp and it had something to do with stamina.
• Sheila trusts no one.
  
• She also thinks they won't air a lot of her tantrum about Adam because she cussed too much. (That never stopped the show before!)
• Allison told Sharon that during the HOH comp (already televised with Eric and whats-her-name), Jen was giving her the answers as they apply to Ryan. But Jen was giving her the wrong answers!
• Chelsia said that Natalie told James, Josh, and Sharon that she and Matt would not use the veto.
• Matt told Parker about getting his Monica Lewinsky on last night. Stupid, stupid Natalie!
• More small talk and I'm outta here for now!

May Adam watch over us all in his gentle gaze ...

BB9 Live Feeds Update Flash - POV

Matthew and Natalie have won the Power of Veto. Matt has already said Parker's the only one he trusts in the game. Will he and Natalie take Jen and Parker off the block?

A full update will be posted later!

New BB9 Live Feeds Report

My latest live feeds report can be found over on TV Squad. For those looking for hot hook up action ... it happened even though they don't like each other.

Eep.

BB9 - Live Feeds Update - Into the Evening 2/14

Yeah, Ryan is worried. He's worried about Jen being near another man and he's worried that he'll be evicted.

What a heavy burden to bear!

(Thanks to Zoetawny for the graphic!)

Here's what's been happening in that Big Brother house of Dubious Duos since I last reported:

• Once again I'm amazed about the lack of personal responsibility expected from the houseguests. BB had an outdoor lockdown so that they could clean the guinea pig cage. I know 7-year-olds who do that. Perhaps it's best that the HG don't handle the guinea pigs. They might corrupt them.

Allison and Sheila think Alex is aligning with the wrong women in the house. Sheila told Allison that Parker talked about suicide. (Now, I didn't catch him actually doing that ... it's possible that Sheila is embellishing things a bit.)

Sheila thinks Jen is the boss in the Jen/Ryan relationship.

Sheila also thinks that Jen threw her own boyfriend under the bus and thinks that Jen and Parker are master manipulators. (Puppetmasters? No way!)

If Allison leaves, Sheila plans to ally with Sharon.

Sharon's picture is now on the Memory Wall.

Parker thinks it's the most unfair season ever.

Allison complained to Parker that Ryan isn't even talking to her. (Too involved having sex in the stall with Jen, I guess.)

Parker and James think that eviction might be on Sunday.

There's still no hint of any upcoming food comps.

Amanda is tiring of Alex. She told Parker that Alex thinks he's smarter than her and wants to do all the talking, make all the decisions.

Alex is suspicious that Amanda knew Parker before the house. She denies it.

Alex and Amanda screamed at each other in the yard. He doesn't want her talking to James and Chelsia or Sheila and Adam.

• Alex is really on an anti-James rant.
• Amanda is even madder at Alex.
• This bunch gets into huge blow-ups over the most stupid things -- down to the point of yelling about who swore at whom first.
• James and Adam both want to vote out Jen and Parker. The only problem? James and Adam aren't partners!
• They all dressed up for a romantic Valentine's Day dinner in the House of Hate.
• They said grace and each said what the day meant to them. BLECH. If they actually liked each other, that would be different.
