Big Brother Craze

It’s Live Eviction day, and also there’s a 99.9% chance it’ll be a very late night tonight with an endurance challenge! Not only have they been on lockdown since 4pm yesterday, but when Memphis wanted to do a ‘never ending story’ Dan replied that they couldn’t because they’d been told there was an endurance competition today and had to sleep. HURRAY!

You know what that means - aside from my needing caffeine and a store run later - April’s almost a shoo-in to get voted out. These guys aren’t stupid and they saw her performance last time. So, despite her “Good heart” and the fact she “Didn’t do anything to ANYONE in the house” they’ll give the bitch the boot!

Yes, both those quotes are direct from April. Delusional much?

There wasn’t a whole lot of game talk going on last night, what there was was simply more of the same and seems to have everyone in the house setting their sites on Michelle. Even Memphis - as she’s become quite the loose cannon and as Memphis says “Gone off the deep end. What the hell?” She got caught up in playing all sides, I think, and not very well as all sides noticed. Ollie will be out for vengeance after losing his bed buddy, and depending on what the endurance comp entails, he might stick in there for the long haul. This is a crucial HOH competition for everyone in the house, and I think that no matter who wins, Michelle will be one of the nominees. Unless she wins, I mean.

Dan, Memphis and Keesha are determined to win, though I’m not sure they realize that Keesha might bow to Renny’s wishes and put Memphis up too. It’s bound to be a battle of epic proportions and I can’t wait!

Otherwise, last night, there was just a lot of tomfoolery and fun going on with Keesha, Memphis and especially Dan and Renny. Dan imitated Renny, Renny threatened to pop him one and choke him - but finally got him to behave by threatening to “Show the world your family jewels!” by pantsing him. Funny stuff - those two crack me up together!

And for the record - no, April and Ollie did not take Renny up on her HOH bed offer. They did, however, spend time under the covers. For those keeping track and all. heh.

I’ll be in and out - napping this morning, then that all important caffeine and munchie run before the show. If anything important happens, I’ll post again - otherwise I’ll be here with bells on for the Live show. Then I’ll cover every second of the endurance comp from the show through the live feeds until the bitter end - See ya then!

CBS posted this yesterday on their Youtub channel - BB10 Behind the scenes… check it out!

Dare we say it? Are we in for another endurance HOH tomorrow? The houseguests went on lockdown just before 4pm today, and it can’t be just for Craig Ferguson tonight, because they warned them to get all their laundry out of the machines first - so this is an all nighter, ya’ll, and you know what that means.. ENDURANCE! Hurray! Who do you think will take it this time? And how glad will they be to have gotten rid of April already? Heh. Of the 7 that’ll remain 6 will play (Renny can’t as outgoing HOH), Keesha, Dan, Memphis, Michelle, Ollie and Jerry(or by slimmest chance, April), who do you figure will do the best in Endurance?

Gametalk wise - Renny and Keesha met up in the HOH room to compare notes on Ollie’s offers to help them get Michelle out next if that’s what they want. Renny put her needle back in the “No one loves you but me” groove for a while and I completely zoned out. Sorry. It was more of the same. No one would take you but me, Memphis is an asshole, Something’s weird with Dan, how dare they put Michelle over me… Keesha nodded in all the appropriate places.

Downstairs there was quite the Jerry bashing session, led by Michelle - as always. She’s been bashing him all damn day, without pause. It’s getting exhausting to listen too. Ollie joined in whole-heartedly, but just a few minutes ago was whispering game with Jerry. He said “The four” (Keesha, Renny, Memphis, Dan) are counting him out for comps and trying to make him go crazy. They figure Michelle’s the extra vote, but he and Jerry, they can flip the whole thing. All they have to do is win HOH.

Ollie may step up to play the game after all…

April has spent less time bawling her eyes out today, and more time being silent. She’s ‘accepted’ her lot, according to Ollie, and is fine with going home, though sad. She told Renny earlier she won because she has Ollie. Renny countered she knew Ollie had feelings for her when she caught Ollie putting the cereal in alphabetical order for her.

That’s about all happening now - they expect to be called for Craig Ferguson within 30 minutes or so, and there’s certain to be some sort of fall out from that. Stay tuned!

- Still no Craig Ferguson. Carolyn, over at BB Dish says that tonight’s CF is a repeat - thus the houseguests got all dressed up for nothing, apparently. Although I hesitate to call April’s bikini top, sweat shirt, cut off shorts and hooker heels ‘dressed up’. Anyway - all’s quiet, random talk. April/Ollie flirting/trashing other houseguests/etc. Same ole same ole. Renny offered them her room for the night for some ‘alone time’ if they wanted it. They’ve not taken her up on that yet, but might later.

Dan and Memphis are playing marbles again, while Renny is frying up some dinner on the stove. All in all - another day in the BB house!

It’s HOH picture time in the house, and everyone is making nice for Renny’s photographs. Although April and ollie refused to kiss - like no one knows what they’ve been up too.

As Jerry says - they like to “play scenarios” in his room. Wink wink. nudge nudge. Here’s some of the photos:

Tons more in the Gallery!

There’s been very little gameplay talk - other then Ollie approaching Keesha about working together to get Michelle out sooner rather then later, as she’s working both sides. It was a brief convo, broken up by Michelle’s spidey senses as she joined them outside.

Other then that, it’s quiet. So I’m going to enjoy the quiet of my house without kids. BACK TO SCHOOL. The three best words in the English Language! Ha!

…it’s more of the same in the Big Brother House, with the alcohol flowing free. Dan and keesha donated theirs to memphis and michelle, who are drinking it shot style, and shotgun style, to get drunk faster. April and ollie are locked up in the spa room, hating on everyone, as April gives him pointers for what to do when she’s gone - she offered to leave him her $5k to bargain with. She also suggests cozying up with Memphis and working out with him, he refuses. Earlier today he also said he was never getting in the pool again, either.

There’s a game of Hide and Seek promised, though April and Ollie have refused. In fact, April was offended that they asked her to play with them. She also promises to “work Libra” in the jury house, because her game isn’t over, not by a long shot. She’ll decide who wins. Oh, and she’s also highly offended that Jerry farts. Alrighty then…

Trouble in paradise:
Ollie: I can’t beleive you have the nerve to tell me to work out with Memphis. He’s the one I want out the worst.

April leaves, and goes to cry in her room, before getting her bikini and going back to put it on, leaving Ollie in the Spa alone.

…this has the prime makings of a blow out tonight - and rest assured, if it goes down, I’ll be here with all the details! Stay tuned!

The game of Hide and Seek lasted for a while, everyone giggling and jumping and the final one found was Jerry in the best hiding place ever - between the dryer/cupboard. Now they’re playing a version of the murder mystery game - they all pick pool balls, they one with the 8 ball is the murderer. The murdere winks at someone, they die - you have to catch the winker in the act.

Loads of screen caps can be found in the gallery!

Where else would you find pictures like THIS?

Exactly. We’ve had numerical chairs (like musical chairs, with counting) and airplaning, and foot wars, and a whole bunch of giggling and laughter - while Ollie/April remain outside, ignoring them all.

-:20 Tonight’s the night - we get the POV Competition at last, and the wheeling and dealing beforehand AND a speech by the POV winner that I just know will be fun! I have it on good authority (aka - the rumblings of the houseguests afterwards) that there is something in the POV competition that is a direct affront to my delicate Phobic Sensibilities… but I’ll do my best to hang in there for you and ignore it’s slithering ickyness.

Stay tuned!

:00 Previously on Big Brother…. Here we go kids!

:02 We flash back to the end of the nomination ceremony, where April and Jerry were nominated. Jerry says he was in the Marines after he turned 17, it was kill or be killed, it’s gotten him this far. Renny says that April is her target, she’s a big threat and would get in her way of winning the money. April says that everyone says they won’t take it personally, but they are, and she’d be a liar if she said it didn’t hurt, it’s tough. Ollie says his plan worked, his conversation and Renny heard him out, thank the Lord.

Dan wants to know why it isn’t Ollie and April, she had a chance to break up the couple and leads him to believe she made a deal with Ollie. He and Memphis meet in the store room, and they know they can’t win POV or Dan/Memphis will go up, they have to “fight our ass off.”

In the Doom Room, April congratulates Ollie and he says not too, and if he wins POV, he’ll take her off. Ollie says a lot can happen from there. She’s feeling bad, but she has to start thinking aobut how to get out of it. The game just begain, can’t see her down. She says she has to be upset for a few minutes and look vunulable for a while. He asks what she’s thinking, he says nothing, she says that she’s past that, he says play your game, she needs him to be hiim, he says he’s there for her.

In the HOH - Keesha joins Renny to check on her. Renny says it was two from the trio and she did what she had to do, she likes Ollie and she couldn’t see putting him on the block. Keesha tells us that if April or Jerry win the Veto, Renny won’t put Ollie up, she could put up Keesha, Memphis or Dan and that’s scary. Renny says in the HOH people shouldn’t feel safe, and Keesha says she doesn’t, even with Renny up there. Renny says some people are targeted and they’re gonna go. Keesha says its a crazy game.

Jerry in the Doom room - need to get his ass outa the bed and do something. What you do? nothing. Talk in here. Yes? Have anything important to say? No. Ollie tells us the Colonel might be losing his mind in the game. JErry continues - talk about politics? nope, don’t know what’s going on. Religion? Nope, no church. Family? Yes - I miss my kids, grand children, wife, puppy.. and I’m talking to myself, goodness.

:08 Time to pick for the POV players!
Dan tells us teh one name that can’t come out of the bag is Ollie. He doesn’t know who Renny would put up if Ollie saves April.
Renny picks Dan
Ollie says it’s a necessity for his name to be pulled out of that bag - he needs to win and save April.
April picks Keesha
Jerry picks Ollie. April smiles.
Renny chooses MIchelle to host.

Ollie and April celebrate in the Spa room, about Ollie getting to play. He says they’re not happy about that, he’ll do whatever he can to save her, stay focused, relax and do the job. April says come on fate, fate faate fate, Ollis says someone’s praying for them.

In the hippie room, Dan/Memphis/Keesha talk about it being the worst case scenario, it’d be Memphis or Dan that went up. Keesha lets them know that Renny says she likes ollie, it’s messed up, she’d put them up as a pawn?

Memphis tells us Renny went off the deep end - she’s a loose cannon, he felt like he could trust he, he’s lost that.

He wants to know why she treats ollie so special, but would put them on the block…

:12 Commercial!

(more…)

In between Ollie and April’s bitching about Jerry and Keesha and calling them names before moving on to the next target to do the same (…I quit listening…) there was some game talk between Renny and Keesha - Under the cut!

Keesha decides to take Renny further under her wing, and discuss some of the things going on. She makes her promise not to say anything, and then promptly furthers Renny’s bullseye sighting on Memphis.

(more…)

The house guests are awake and sucking down coffee while mumbling small talk. Dan wants to have a pool party, and Michelle is suspicious since he just got out of the Diary Room - although I think Michelle would be suspicious even if she was handcuffed to Dan for 24 hours and discovered that his DRs are the same as everyone elses.

Last night, the house was again divided, and while there was laughter on both sides, one was full of fun, giddiness, tomfoolery and general good nature - even when Renny laughed so hard she peed -which in turn had Memphis, Dan and Keesha laughing so hard I worried for their bladders too! They were adjusting the pictures on the memory wall by wetting down paper towels and sticking them to Jerry’s picture. Then they got caught by Jerry, who laughed along with them “What, you all think your good looking, huh?” He gave Renny (Who had the cutest dear in the headlights look EVER) a hug, then finished his way to the bathroom, then back to bed.

On the other side of the house, April was in primetime bitch mode, though I gotta say it wasn’t any different then the rest of the season so far. How dare Michelle and Jerry play with the other houseguests, you know? Then she had a moment of pure hatred when the Kitchen group was discussing the 14th picture on the wall and what it could be. She stomped right back to the room to take it out on Ollie about Dan - who happened to do the questioning:

First, Michelle bitched about “their interrogation sh*t. They won’t answer my questions but they dare to ask me sh*t like that?” Ollie says they try to control you with that, and April jumped right in to ugly mode:

April: They wouldn’t dare ask me.
Ollie: Dan told me he was worried about you.
Michelle: He told me that too.
April: He is out there laying on the kitchen table - Laying on the table! He asked me what I thought the middle square was for and did I think it was someone coming back. He asked me if I thought it could be my twin. I said she’s pregnant. He’s all, “what if she’s not?” What an idiot! I have a nephew with downs syndrome. She’s not gonna leave him. (muttering now) Talking about my family… F’ing Libra can leave her kids. My sister wouldn’t do that!
Ollie: He didn’t mean it like that.. He did have a smile on this face.
April: No. he was dead serious. Like my sister’s gonna lie to me…
Ollie: He’s just throwing stuff out there..
April: I wanted to say, you f’ing pu–y! Making up sh*t, just so you don’t have to vote for me.. f’ing baby!

Ollie indulges her with laughter. [I want to reach through the screen and smack her. Dear BB Gods, please give me the chance to interview April after the finale. Pretty please with BB Sprinkles on top!]

There wasn’t a lot of game talk through the night, as Michelle/Ollie/April are stuck in the same grove, and the others were busy having a good time. Memphis and Dan whispered a bit about making sure they have the same answers if anyone asks if they’re an alliance, and then Dan spoke with the Feeders outside alone before he finally went to bed. He hopes me makes the right decisions, that he can trust Memphis, that he can make a run at the game from here out. He worried that Monica is mad, has broke up with him, or is happy/will be happy if he wins. A little while later he said “Goodnight, Monica.” and headed to bed with the rest of the houseguests.

Today on the feeds, we’ll have HOH pictures! I’ll be in and out all day, posting the important stuff, as well as recapping tonight. Tomorrow is the Craig Ferguson show - and April says she’s going to wear her bikini, just see if she don’t!

Right now, everyone is up and quiet and talking nicely together random subjects. I’m sure it won’t last…

…some random happenings:

Dan found a praying Mantis by the pool, observed it for a while, which upset Keesha because it almost baked in the sun/exhausted itself to death/ poor little BUG. And Jerry had sprayed down the outside table and forgot to wash it off. Tsk. Tsk. Is there no end to Keesha’s wrath? (Hahah!)

Dan tells Keesha that he’ll give the bug CPR if needed, and let it recover in her bed. She says they belong outside, and relents to add she doesn’t think he did it on purpose. The bug lived.. at least for a while. We’ve not seen in since…

But that’s nothing on the things the nicest little girl in the house, the one with the biggest heart, the one who’s done nothing wrong nor said anything bad to ANYONE has been spewing through the morning, both before and after the POV ceremony.

After the cut, of course!

(more…)

The POV Ceremony is over, and you know what to do with the link after the ever so pretty button! (and also - thanks to the 451 Press PTB - we have a new wider post format! Whoo! Thanks guys!)

(more…)

The alcohol is flowing as the houseguests that can eat shared a dinner. Memphis burned himself at the oven, but is fine - despite the fact they made us worry as they cut the feeds.

and THEN….

(more…)

-:15 Just setting up the post for showtime - we get to see Michelle eat Crickets tonight! YAY! Stay tuned!

:00 Previously on Big brother 10.. Here we go, kids! Who will Renny nominate for Eviction? Find out now on BB10!

:02 We start with a flash back to Libra’s elimination. Keesha tells us that she it’s nice that she was more liked the Libra. April tells us she wasn’t sure she had the 4 votes, so it’s safer to vote Libra out. Michelle - guess what, Libra doesn’t give me a hug out of everyone. Libra took out Jessie, Libra goes home.

Keesha thanks everyone as Libra’s face goes black and white. Renny says seh saw her photo on that side surrounded by all those black and white, and it makes her look like a target. Flash to Renny winning HOH! Renny says she got emotional, she misses her mother, and she just said she had to win it to see her mother’s photo. Keesha tells us she’s so glad the tables were turned, she knows she can unpack her bags for aweek. April says she knows she’s going up, this is when the game begins. Memphis says it’s perfect, it couldn’t work any better, he knows he’s not going up. Renny says that Memphis wants to move into the bedroom with keesha, and it worries her because you get to talk game a lot, it concerns her because Memphis can charm Keesha, while she’s upstairs.

Ollie and April are on the couch, Ollie says it sucks, April tells him it’s just a game and to smile. Jerry joins. April tells us there’s not a moment where it’s just her and Ollie, without JErry appearing within three minutes.

Keesha and Memphis are saying its awesome, and they could make a run of this game, it couldn’t have been any better.

Ollie tells April she’s tired, and they go to lay down, leaving Jerry alone in the living room. They go to the Doom Room, passing Keesha and Memphis, and they are pretty sure that’s who’s going up. MEanwhile April tells Ollie that Renny’s going to take it all on Jerry, if April gets put up against him, he’d better watch out. here comes Jerry to lay down too. April whispers and says tehy need to talk to her tonight, and make sure that they get her to put April up against Jerry. Ollie tells us that they need to go against JErry, not with both of them on the block.

April: I came here to play.
Ollie: game on.

In the hippie room, Keesha and Renny are joined by Memphis, and he asks if he can wash the sheets on Libra’s bed. He leaves, and Renny asks what Memphis’ story is. Keesha says she doesn’t know, and Renny asks if Memphis promised her anything in the end. She says no, Renny says she knows she likes him, and Keesha says we need him right now, Renny says he wouldn’t take her to the end because they can’t wina gainst her. Rennys ays she would…

Renny tells us that Keesha has a friendship with memphis, but she’s not stupid, she can see whats going on.

Renny tells Keesha that Memphis is a threat, very sly, she agrees. Renny says he’d use people to get what he wants, he’s the male April. keesha says yeah, but he’s quiet about it. Keesha tells us that Renny worries her, she’s on a memphis kick, and she doesn’t want him to go up - Renny needs to keep her eye on the other side of the house.

:10 Commercial

(more…)

It’s a typical Sunday in the Big Brother House, which means manscaping, haircuts by Renny, suspicious behavior declared by Michelle, and a couple convos here and there that bear repeating.

It also means there will be a show recap tonight, in just a few hours, too, in which we’ll get to see the Food Competition, as well as the Nominations as we rewind our thinkings for just an hour and see how AGP decided to edit this week. Oughta be interesting!

In the meantime, here’s the cut, and ya’ll know what to do with it, if you want more!

(more…)

Since I didn’t take my nap, and there was no drama last night, I went to bed early, then after getting a kiddo out the door early this morning, went back to bed. As such I am bright eyed and bushy tailed and omg have we got a lot to catch up on. Keep checking here as I gather all the info on what I missed, condense it, and get us all caught back up.

Fortunately, today in the house is slow, slow, slow, so it should be easy going, right? Right. All the goodies after the cut, ya’ll!

(…as a completely irrelevant aside - why do I rarely SAY ya’ll in everyday life, but always type it? Discuss!)

(more…)

….I still haven’t managed my nap, but I thought I’d hope in here now that most of the kids have given me a moment of silence so that I can catch up. Because, naturally, the minute I had to leave, they all stopped sunning and started talking game. So, while Memphis is working on some sort of mocktail mix, Renny is cooking, and Dan is randomly throwing items together to try and make some snack of some sort with Michelle as his taste tester - we’ll catch up.

After the cut, of course!
