Reality TV losers real stars

By TARA MERRIN - Sun Media

With every winner, comes a loser. And this week, reality TV was all about both.

We saw Olympic medalist Apolo Anton Ohno and his partner Julianne Hough waltz away with the cheesy disco ball trophy on Dancing With the Stars; Jordin Sparks steal the American Idol crown and Tessa Horst win bachelor Andy Baldwin's heart.

But the real fun came from watching the losers have their dreams crushed on TV.

Take, for example, Laila Ali, who was booted off Dancing With the Stars in third place. Instead of faking happiness for the final two pairs, she provided reality fans with an actual real moment.

"Of course, I'm pissed. I mean, come on," she said, before adding it didn't matter who won now that she'd been cut from the competition.

Another great moment came when Bevin Powers was flat out rejected on The Bachelor. Believing she was a shoo-in from the first episode, she was clearly shocked by the breakup, saying nothing as Baldwin, bursting into tears, tried to explain his decision.

Blake Lewis, who lost Idol, was not as entertaining. In fact, he actually looked happy for Sparks, which made for a rather boring ending to television's most-popular show.

Let's just hope all the contestants on this summer's slough of reality shows are not as well-behaved:

Pirate Master (premieres Thursday on CBS): From the mind of Mark Burnett, Pirate Master is Survivor on a 179-foot ship. Over 33 days, 16 contestants will travel around the Caribbean in search of hidden treasure. Each week, one pirate will become the captain of the ship and one will be "cut adrift."

On the Lot (premiered last Tuesday on Fox): Burnett and Steven Spielberg are searching for the next great filmmaker. This week it was all about the pitch -- selling yourself and your movie to a bunch of uptight execs. While it was fun to watch, it seemed a bit unfair to crush the hopes of filmmakers just because they get a little white-faced in front of crowds.

Canadian Idol (premieres June 5 on CTV): Zack, Sass, Jake, Farley and Ben are back for a fifth season. Basically American Idol with Canadian contestants who, this year, are allowed to play instruments. Let's hope it brings out musicians instead of just the teeny-boppers.

Canada's Next Top Model (premieres May 30 on City-TV): Jay Manuel of America's Next Top Model is taking over the Canadian version as the new Tyra Banks. Other than that, and a few changes on the judging panel, it's pretty much the same show as last year.

So You Think You Can Dance 3 (premiered last Thursday on Fox): It's back. After two incredibly successful seasons, SYTYCD is on the hunt for the next Benji Schwimmer. And with all the talented dancers out there, this summer's cast is sure to strut right into the hearts of reality TV fans to become the next big thing.

Last Comic Standing 5 (premieres June 13 on NBC): In hopes of appealing to a broader audience, Comic has opened the competition to comedians from around the world and thrown in a $250,000 US grand prize. The winner will also receive an NBC talent contract and Bravo half-hour comedy special.

The Next Best Thing (premieres Wednesday on ABC): Do we really need to find the country's best celebrity impersonators? Apparently we do. So, ABC has gone on a search for all those people who bare an uncanny resemblance to movie stars, singing sensations and Paris Hiltons past and present.

Hell's Kitchen 3 (premieres June 4 on Fox): Foul-mouthed British chef Gordon Ramsay will torment a new crop of cooks as they fight it out in the kitchen to win the head chef job at the luxurious Green Valley Ranch Resort in Las Vegas.

Fast Cars & Superstars -- Gillette Young Guns Celebrity Race (premieres June 7 on ABC): A dozen celebrity drivers, including Jewel, Tony Hawk and William Shatner, partner with the Gillette Young Guns to learn how to live life in the really fast lane.

American Inventor 2 (premieres June 6 on ABC): Does anyone even know what happened to last year's winner? Has anyone ever seen, or bought, that rotatable baby car seat? Regardless, ABC felt it necessary to, once again, search for America's next great inventor.

Age of Love (premieres June 18 on NBC): Tennis pro Mark Philippoussis will date seven women in their 20s -- the "Kittens" -- and seven women in their 40s -- the "Cougars." Then he'll have to decide if age really matters when looking for love, which, of course, it does.

Shaq's Big Challenge (premieres June 26 on ABC): Shaquille O'Neal will help transform six obese American middle-schoolers into healthy kids in this weigh-loss series. Predictably, there will be a lot of moaning, tears and broccoli. Yuck.

America's Got Talent 2 (premieres June 5 on NBC): NBC is bringing in Dancing With the Stars' standout Jerry Springer as the new Regis Philbin and crazy Sharon Osbourne as the older and more-opinionated Brandy. David Hasselhoff will also be back. Don't expect much from the acts on stage.

Big Brother 8 (premieres July 5 on CBS): A new group of house guests will move in together for the summer. The one who can outlast all the rest will walk away with $500,000 and exactly 15 minutes of fame.

Posted on Dlisted.com

http://dlisted.com/2007/02/01/big-brother-is-coming-back/

My summer guilty pleasure will return this summer! Big Brother is back for its 8th season and will again bring together a group of crazies that will battle it out for $500,000. Arnold Shapiro, the show’s executive producer will step down and serve as a consultant. Arnold was responsible for reinventing the sour Big Brother 1 into Big Brother 2.The 8th season will be completely different than any other. Producers say that Big Brother: All-Stars was sort of the end of an era and now the show will have a fresh cast and new twists.Julie Chen will return as the show’s resident robot.I hope they cast all women. Seriously, that would be some good TV. Cast all women, give them tons of booze and let them rip one another a part.Chenbot also looks beat down without the thirty-pounds of make-up she usually dons!Source

Ahh, BB is finally over, but the live feeds aren't! Yes, Real has decided to replay the live feeds from Day 1-73, beginning today and lasting until November 24. (Yes, I counted.) In case you are wondering, I will NOT be reblogging the feeds. (Haha...did you really think I would?) This is just to let the feeds buyers to NOT unsubscribe from SuperPass, especially if you want to view the feeds again. Me personally, I will probably watch them here and there just to ease the depression a bit.

Over the off-season of BB, II won't be posting much here, except for any news and such regarding BB8, which probably won't leak around until 2007.

9/12 Show Recap

2006-09-12T20:00:00.000-05:00

Who will win BB7?

When Janelle arrived, meeting the other jurors, she pleaded to the jury to not let Erika win because she is a backstabber and a floater. Danielle defended her case by saying that Mike also backstabbed people and floated under the wings of Will. The jury discussed each of the two's gameplay in order to further make a decision on who to win. Here's how it seems the vote would go based on their talk--M: Erika, H: Erika, Jam: Mike, D: Mike, G: Mike, W: Mike, and Jan: Mike. My prediction: 5-2, Mike wins BB7. Before confronting the HG, Danielle told the jury not to vote personally. Her fellow jurors agreed.

Jury questioning: Marcellas to both--What was your best move? Erika: Convincing Janelle to evict Will. Mike: Not using the special power and working with Janelle instead. George to Mike--Will you propose to Erika on the live finale? Mike: No. George to Erika--How do you think I feel for you backstabbing me? Erika: I needed Mike in the game to help me. Will to Mike--Another phone call, yada, yada. Janelle to Erika--Was kissing butt and throwing competitions strategy? Erika: I didn't throw any competitions, except the one I gave to Danielle. James to Erika--How was your strategy different that Alison's? Erika: I didn't really have anyone to team up with. Danielle to Erika--Was it your decision to evict me? Erika: Yes. Danielle to Mike--Why did you backstab me? Mike: I wasn't the only one who backstabbed you, look at James. Howie to Mike--Why did you evict me? Mike: You were a bigger threat than people perceived of you. Final thoughts: Erika--She knew she had to go after Will, but couldn't because everyone else was protecting him. That is why people perceived her as a floater. However, she made his best friend put Will up and Janelle to vote him out. Mike--He lied to every single person in the house except George and Will. He went on to compliment each of the jurors and to vote the better game player, which is him.

Live voting: Marcellas--I based my vote on the final question I asked you both during the questioning. Howie--America hates Erika, and I hate Mike. Danielle--I am basing my vote on playing the game, but also floating (meaning that she is not voting for Erika?). George--I am giving my vote to the player who played the best game. Will--Mike is my best friend, no matter what happens tonight. Janelle--I am voting for the best player. James--I am voting for the person who played the game the best.

Time to meet the other HG! Kaysar revealed to Janelle that James was playing her the ENTIRE time. Janelle isn't too surprised about James' comments because he is such a whiner. James defended himself by saying that Kaysar and Janelle promised him that they would go after CT, and they failed to do that. Janelle accepted James' argument. Jase revealed that him and Diane were in a secret alliance together (Mr. & Mrs. Smith) and also stated that Will is the best player to play BB. Alison revealed to the final two that Mike had played Erika the whole game. Erika didn't seem surprised, saying that it worked for both of them!

BB7 winner reveal: Marcellas--Erika, Howie--Mike, Danielle--Mike, George--Mike, Will--Mike, Janelle--Mike, and James--Mike. By a vote of 6-1, Mike is the winner of BB7!

$25,000 bonus prize winner: Janelle!

Who knows what surprises lie in store for BB8? Find out next July!

9/12 Live Feeds--The Day's Events

2006-09-12T18:05:00.001-05:00

Wow!! The final update of BB7...I had no idea the blog would be so successful throughout this season of BB. Just to let you know, I had a total of 33,000+ views (and counting!), 420+ comments (and counting!), plus an unlimited number of poll votes. I just want to say thanks for a great season readers! And now (drumroll please), onto the final live feeds update of BB7:

Mike was the first one up today at 12:05 PM, with Erika shortly following him at 12:20 PM. They drank coffee and swam in the pool for the last time in the house. They talked for quite a bit and were on outdoor lockdown for most of the day as BB got a head start on their post-season cleaning duties.

They went on and on and on until we got fire (Perhaps no more feeds?) about 20 minutes ago. We've had fire ever since.

In other news, the BB7 finale is tonight! Crazy, isn't it? The jury of 7 will cast their votes live for the winner of BB7. Also, the usual reunion of all 14 HG will occur before the vote is revealed. Who will win BB7? We are less that an hour away from the finale!

9/11 Live Feeds--The Night's Events

2006-09-12T05:09:00.000-05:00

From a thrilling day to a thrilling night--the final night in the BB house? How will the final two celebrate? Let's find out! Here are the nightly events from the BB house:

After about two hours of fire, the feeds returned with the final two in the backyard toasting to their final night in the house. Erika told Mike that she knows she cannot win and congratulates Mike. He tells her that nothing is set in stone until the winner is announced tomorrow night. They talked for a few hours before BB decided to give them another movie. (Did they ever watch one earlier? The feeds were blocked for over three hours for that one.

When they returned, the final two were found asleep in the bug room at 1:45 AM. They are both still asleep.

9/11 Live Feeds--The Day's Events

2006-09-11T21:07:00.001-05:00

Another thrilling day inside the BB house! Hey, the good news is only ONE more day of this as the finale is tomorrow night. Here's the lowdown on today's events inside the BB house:

The final two awoke at around 1:00 PM. Mike, as usual, relaxed, while Erika continued to lose her mind. She says that she can't take much more of it. (Good thing it's over tomorrow!) The HG also discussed the season over and over again.

BB has given the two yet another movie, and I'm sure we'll get fire for a good long time again.

9/10 Live Feeds--Overnight Info

2006-09-11T05:05:00.000-05:00

The only bit of news happening from last night was that the final two received a movie. Not sure what it was--Mike told Erika to ask the diary room for either 'Flirting With Disaster' or 'Meet The Parents.' They received the movie at about 9:30 PM, and we've had fire ever since (nearly six hours).

9/10 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-09-10T21:38:00.001-05:00

Once again, today didn't bring much excitement to us Internet viewers watching the feeds. Here is the little bit of news coming from the BB house from today:

Erika was the first one up at 1:30 PM. Mike was short to follow her at just after 2:00 PM. The two did have a bit of a spif last night, but of course they made up and kissed over it this morning.

Mike announced to the Internet that he will win, either by a vote of 6-1 or 5-2. Meanwhile, Erika is still laughing over the jury's commenting of her being a floater. She thinks that everyone was a floater at some point by either throwing competitions or being in more than one alliance at once.

Erika made fun of the LoD alliance and asked Mike who came up with the name. He said Will. (I think so too.) The two rehashed the jury questioning once again throughout the afternoon while sleeping some MORE! They just got up about an hour or so ago from their early evening naps.

Currently, both HG are eating dinner.

9/9 Live Feeds--Overnight Info

2006-09-10T12:05:00.001-05:00

With the jury questioning finally over, how long will the final two stay up trying to figure out the final votes? My guess (I've already said this, but): Mike wins by a vote of 4-3. I guess we'll have to wait until Tuesday to find out for sure. Here's the overnight events from the BB house:

Mike said that his best move this season was convincing George to put up Howie. He thinks that Will is now convincing the jury to vote for him; however, he thinks Will will be unable to convince Danielle, Howie, James, or Marcellas.

Erika doesn't understand why people are angry at her for being a floater when she was forced into the "floater" position by not coming in with a pre-season alliance like CT and S6. She now thinks that she will lose because the jury will vote emotionally instead of voting for the best player. (Which is her? Really, I think it's a toss-up.)

Apparently, George asked Mike if he was going to propose to Erika on the finale. The two laughed about that, and Erika thinks the jury may have been drunk during the questioning.

Mike told Erika about LoD. Erika actually seemed happy because she knew something was fishy about that four (Danielle, James, Mike, and Will), and this proves that she was right! The two then had a fight about who George would vote for. They both think thet he will vote for each other.

Erika thinks that she will get Danielle, George, and Marcellas; while Mike will get Howie, James, Janelle, and Will. She thinks that Janelle will convince her alliance to vote for Mike. They both then continue the Janelle bashing and how annoyed they are with the jury's bitterness.

They continued with the rehashing of the season and jury questioning before finally going to bed at 3:30 AM.

Currently, both HG are still asleep.

9/9 Live Feeds--Jury Questioning Stuff

2006-09-10T00:50:00.001-05:00

Well, after nearly three hours of fire, the feeds returned with Erika and Mike studying the previously evicted HG on the memory wall. They then went into discussion about what happened during the jury questioning. Here's what they discussed:

Howie asked Erika who her earlier targets were. Erika said George because she was never really close to him. James asked Erika why he should vote for her since her strategy was flirting and hooking up, like Alison's. Janelle asked Erika about why she threw competitions and kissed ass all season. Apparently, Janelle wasn't such a happy camper at the questioning. Erika thinks that Janelle is just jealous of her. (For being a whore? I doubt it.)

Mike didn't really say anything about his questioning. The two keep going on about how furious Janelle was. Mike thinks the vote will come down to George. (His votes to win--James, Janelle, and Will. Erika's--Danielle, Howie, and Marcellas.)

Erika is nervous that Janelle will convince Howie and James to vote against her. Mike tells her not to worry about it and just have fun until Tuesday.

BB gave them a bottle of wine each, and they plan on getting drunk tonight. (Joy!)

I really can't take them anymore. I totally agree with the jury and their positions. Erika doesn't understand why the jury ganged up on her for being a "floater." It's because she is!! Kissing Mike's ass all year long and sleeping with him to take her to the final two isn't the greatest of gameplay. I'm sorry Erika, but I side with the jury here. And Mike? What did he do? Partner with Will and then end up going to the final two without him? Can you say MAGGIE? I'd rather have neither of these two win and just completely throw out this finale! ARGH! This final two is driving me nuts! Please tell me you are agreeing! (Actually, don't. I'd love to hear your own personal opinions. But, if you have the feeds, you are absolutely done with these two--trust me!)

Currently, the final two are still up, drinking.

9/9 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-09-09T20:55:00.001-05:00

Woo hoo! Jury questioning day! Unfortunately, we as viewers are unable to see it until the live finale. So we can only guess how it went by what the final two say afterward. Here's the morning/afternoon events from today at the BB house:

Erika was the first one up at around 8:30 AM. Unfortunately for her, Mike didn't get up until well after 1:00 PM, so she was left alone in the house for nearly five hours.

They spent most of the day preparing for the jury questioning, which is scheduled for tonight at 7:00 PM BBT. I'm sure we'll get fire soon and it will probably last for a good two hours or so.

Ahh...currently, we have fire.

9/8 Live Feeds--Overnight Info

2006-09-09T09:19:00.001-05:00

What a day for these two! A day of boredom--that's for sure. Here's the scoop from today's horribly boring night from the BB house:

Erika paced back and forth for nearly two hours preparing herself for the jury questioning tomorrow. When Mike joined her, they began once again to rehash the season.

The feeds once again had a malfunction and were blocked by TV channels for a good hour or so. When they returned (just before 2:00 AM), Erika and Mike were shown sleeping together.

Currently, the HG are still asleep.

9/8 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-09-08T22:05:00.000-05:00

Another small update here--just keeping you up to date! Here are the evening events from the BB house:

The final two discussed what might be happening in sequester right now. (Just a note here for those who did not watch House Calls today--Janelle will not be going to sequester for some reason, instead she will be sequestered in a hotel. She will meet with the jury at the questioning, but then return to her hotel until the live show. Not sure why.)

They discussed what to wear to the questioning tomorrow night, as well as cleaned and napped for a good portion of the afternoon.

Currently, Mike is sleeping in the HoH room, and Erika is walking around in the kitchen area, looking for something to do I guess.

9/8 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-09-08T17:52:00.000-05:00

Whoo hoo! What an exciting day of events in the BB house we had today!--NOT. The feeds have been horribly boring and at times, nothing happened for HOURS. So, here's the unimortant business needing (I suppose) to be discussed from today in the BB house:

Erika was the first one up today at 8:30 AM, announcing that she will be cleaning the house today. Mike was short to follow her. Mike relaxed while Erika cleaned. They both wondered about what their families are thinking about them being the final two.

Mike really wants this season to be over. Erika agrees, but thinks they need to relax for the last five days they are in the house.

Other than that, the final two have been relaxing and enjoying themselves for a good majority of the day. Don't expect much more than that for the rest of the season.

9/7 Live Feeds--Overnight Info

2006-09-08T05:16:00.000-05:00

The final two--Erika and Mike! Who would have thought it? I sure didn't. You know what that means--boredom on the feeds and nothing really to look forward to until the finale. Oh well. It is what it is. Here's the overnight events from last night in the BB house:

The feeds returned with the final two on lockdown. While outside, Erika took full credit for Will's eviction speech (??) and bragged to Mike about how good she worked her. (Here we go again!) When the HG were let back in, they received champagne and a fruit basket.

And the rehashing of the season begins. They cannot believe that season six is extinct from the house. Mike began telling Erika about all the prizes he won, and she could not believe it! (He won a trip to Aruba, $10,000, a plasma TV, and the car. Now, I really want Erika to win!) They then start to talk about what their families are thinking now.

Since there is nobody else in the house, let the showmance begin again! They ended the night kissing and going to bed together. Mike was the last one asleep at around 12:30 AM. (Now, I have never said that this season!)

And then there were two. What's my prediction for the finale? I think that Mike will win unfortunately, by a vote of 4-3 (Marcellas, Howie, and Janelle being the votes against him), just because the jury will consider him a better player. Plus, Will is going to really work the jury in the next five days to vote for Mike. We'll see on Tuesday!

9/7 Show Recap

2006-09-07T19:53:00.001-05:00

Who will win HoH? And who will that person evict?

Mike was shocked that Janelle evicted Will. Erika was extremely happy for Janelle, while Janelle hated the fact that she lied to Will and evicted him. Janelle was upset that she lost her focus and "gave" the competition to Erika. She is determined to win the second part. Janelle was extremely surprised that Mike threw the competition, and is confident that she can beat him in the second part. Mike was very sad (he cried!) that Will left the house before him.

HoH Part 2: It's a neon paradise--with a car on top! While you are suspended in the air, you must reflect a laser off of each of the past winners onto a mirror in the correct order--it was VERY confusing. The HG to complete it in the fastest time wins! Janelle's time: 3:45. Mike's time: 1:57. Mike wins the HoH and the car! Mike told Erika that it would be stupid for either of them to take Janelle to the finals because they would both lose.

Time for Will's visit to the jury! The jurors were floored to see Will! Marcellas loved Janelle's getting rid of Will.

HoH Part 3: How well do you know the jury? Questions about how the jury answered certain questions. HG with most points wins. Final score--Erika: 4 Mike: 5. Mike wins HoH!

Mike's decision: Janelle has been evicted from the BB house.

Who will win BB7? Find out Tuesday!

9/7 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-09-07T17:02:00.001-05:00

Here's the little bit of news before the show begins--the afternoon events from the BB house:

The HG once again didn't go to bed until nearly 6:00 AM. Unfortunately for them, BB woke them up before 10:00 AM to change some things in the house around before the live show tonight.

Erika told Mike that she will throw the final part of the HoH to him if he would take her to the finals. Mike said he would, but if he doesn't take her, then she doesn't have to vote for him in the finals. (Meaning he's not giving her a straight answer!)

Janelle told Erika to win the HoH and send Mike out for all the stuff that he's done to them. Erika of course agreed with her.

Other than that, we have had fire for a good portion of the day. Looks like it will be that way until after the show's over. As for tonight's show (don't forget!), I really don't know what will happen. The smart thing for both of them to do would be to evict Janelle because she will win if she's in the finals. (I think, anyway.) However, Erika doesn't want Mike in the finals (for everything him and Will did to her and Janelle), and Mike doesn't want Erika in the finals (because she's a floater). So, who knows what will happen? As always, I will have a full show recap following it here on the east coast.

Currently, we still have fire.

Unfortunately, I couldn't make it to the second part of the HoH competition, but Mike did indeed win it. The feeds were blocked beginning at around 10:00 PM (BBT) and lasted until almost 12:30 AM. When the feeds returned, with the HG congratulating Mike on the win. Apparently, the competition had arm strength, and Mike won a car as well.

Mike worked Erika for a while afetr the competition. He told her that he definitely plans on taking her to the finals because there is no way he can beat Janelle. He tells Erika that his best bet is to take him because she cannot beat Janelle either. I don't think Erika gave him a direct answer.

At this point, I have no idea who will be evicted tonight. If Erika wins HoH, the smart move for her to do will be to evict Janelle, but I have a feeling she may evict Mike. If Mike wins HoH, I think he will most definitely take Erika to the finals with him. We'll see tonight though. The third part of the HoH will be live as well as the eviction.

Currently, all HG are outside talking.

If you're wondering why I haven't updated...then never fear! Haha...I have decided to do only two updates a day instead of the usual four, because really, nothing has been happening! So, let's move on to today's events from the BB house:

Today was quite the day of resting! Erika was the first one up, waking up at 1:00 PM. Shortly followed by a wake-up call. As Janelle straggled out of bed, she told Erika that she was nervous for today's portion of the HoH competition.

Mike told Janelle that it would be dumb for her to take Erika to the finals because she didn't do anything game-wise this season.

The HG once again spent most of the day napping and laying around waiting for Part 2 of the HoH.

There is still no word on the next part of the HoH competition. I would guess it should be soon, but what do I know?

Currently, Erika and Janelle are talking. Mike is asleep.

2006-09-06T05:12:00.000-05:00

Will's evicted and Erika's one step closer to becoming the new HoH! Will Mike or Janelle be able to stop her over the next two days? We'll see. Until then, here's the evening/overnight events from the BB house:

Erika and Janelle went on and on about how embarrassed they are about getting played by CT and how shocked they are about Mike's dropping out of the HoH. Janelle is upset that she could never win an endurance competition.

BB gave the HG a bottle of wine and four beers along with sushi for their post-live show feast.

Mike says to himself that whoever doesn't take him to the final two--he and Will plan on voting against in the finals. He then headed off to bed fairly early, while Erika and Janelle stayed up going on and on and on...(I like that they have finally figured out CT, but isn't a few times of rehashing enough? We're talking hours and hours of the same thing!)

Currently, Erika and Janelle are still up.

9/5 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-09-05T21:11:00.001-05:00

Just a little bit of news since the feeds came back on:

Erika and Janelle celebrated Will's eviction while Mike went to the diary room. Janelle still states that she never took her hand off the key. (She did--we saw it live.)

Mike finally came out of the diary room and asked if Janelle ever talked to Erika about being safe before tonight. Janelle said no and that this was totally her decision. (I think she would have evicted Will with or without help from Erika--maybe. Erika definitely did help seal the deal though.) He says that he understands Janelle made a great move and won't hold her against it.

We keep getting in and out fire--ugh!

Currently, the HG are trying to figure out the rest of the show once again.

9/5 Show Recap

2006-09-05T19:59:00.001-05:00

Who will win PoV? And who will the winner evict?

The jury house did indeed have to evacuate their home in Mexico in preparation for Hurricane John. Time for a visit from some new HG! The jury house was shocked to see Danielle, especially James. Then George comes as well, leaving the jury house even more shocked. Howie claimed that he knew George would be coming as well. (Just a note--if you think that Howie got over getting evicted, he definitely did not! Howie was extremely rude to George, and nobody seemed to be able to control him. He just doesn't realize that this is a game!)

Will cannot believe how well Operation Double Date worked. Erika says that she trusts CT more than Janelle. Janelle doesn't understand why Erika is sad that she is going this week, when she will never win if she makes it to the finals.

PoV competition: "When The Stars Align"--HG must pair clues to a corresponding side of a star, so only one set of answers work. (Kinda hard to explain--you'll have to see it to understand what was happening.) Whoever finishes first wins, and the winner is...Janelle! Erika was upset that she was so close and not being able to win. It's Erika's turn to work Janelle now. She says that they will definitely not take Janelle to the final two, so she'd have to win the final HoH to make it to the finals. Erika swore on her mother that she would take Janelle. (But, who cares? So did Jennifer, and we all saw how that turned out!) Will now thinks that he may be going next because he thinks Erika and Janelle have figured out Operation Double Date. Janelle has no idea what she is going to do. PoV ceremony: Janelle took herself off the block and Mike nominated Will.

Live eviction: Janelle held the only vote, and decided to evict...Will!

HoH Competition: Part 1--"Mount HoH"--HG must hold onto the key above them while standing on a side of a volcano. The last person left will win Part 1 and automatically advance to the final part of the HoH competition. What's this? Mike drops out!--saying that the girls have to take him to the final two. (Mike is pretty pissed that Janelle got out Will still.) Hmm...Janelle took her hands off the key [accidentally, apparently], leaving Erika the winner of Part 1. Janelle is now pissed that she was eliminated.

Who will win HoH? And who will that person evict? Find out Thursday!

9/5 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-09-05T19:01:00.001-05:00

There really isn't much to be discussed for the afternoon. At first, it looked like Janelle was all for getting rid of Will, but this afternoon made it look like she still had yet to make a decision. I guess we'll see on the show tonight!

Currently, we have fire.

9/5 Live Feeds--Morning Report

2006-09-05T15:41:00.000-05:00

What an exciting night we had last night! Will it carry over into today? I doubt it considering it's a live show day and the feeds are extremely boring on these days. Nonetheless, here is the morning events from today in the BB house:

Erika and Janelle went on for a good two extra hours about CT playing them. They finally went in for the night just before 6:00 AM.

Erika was the first one up at 10:30 AM. BB confirmed (at around 1:00 PM) to the HG that there is a live show tonight. Since then, the HG have been primping and analyzing the rest of the show's schedule.

There really hasn't been a whole lot of strategy talk yet today. It seems that Janelle is still all for getting rid of Will tonight.

On to a few comments I have been getting recently regarding an America's Choice and the sequester house. I'm not sure about an America's Choice this year. I would guess no because the show does end one week from tonight, but I could be wrong. As for the sequester house, we unfortunately are not allowed to see what goes on as there are no cameras down there--only when new HG join. That is shown on the CBS tidbits we see every live show.

Speaking of which, don't forget about the show tonight! It could be monumental as it looks like Janelle will be evicting the evil Dr. Will himself. We'll see though.

Currently, Janelle and Will are talking. Erika is sleeping, and Mike is working out.

9/4 Live Feeds--Overnight Info

2006-09-05T05:31:00.001-05:00

Aha! Talk about the biggest night in BB history! Read on to find out...here's the overnight events from the BB house:

Mike said that Will needs to flirt Janelle out of the endurance competition that is always round one of the three-part HoH. He doesn't think that Janelle would do that good anyway because she has been eating very unhealthy over the summer. The two agree that they must go to the final two together.

Erika told Janelle that if she evicts her, then she won't vote for her in the finals. Erika then said that Danielle or James wouldn't vote for her either. Erika agrees that if Janelle evicts Will, then Erika will throw the endurance competition. Erika goes on and on how Janelle must take her to the finals. Janelle actually seemed to agree. Throughout all this, Mike and Will are scared that Erika and Janelle may have figured out "Operation Double Date." The two finally sealed the deal that Janelle will evict Will tomorrow. Mike and Will agree that now Will has to work Janelle to make sure she didn't do anything with Erika.

Erika and Janelle talked again. Now Janelle doesn't want to vote out Will because he isn't sure that he is really playing her. (Erika: "Come ON, Janelle!" I'm thinking the same thing!) The two once again agree that CT must go these next two weeks. They are fired up about it.

Erika and Janelle had yet another long talk, just repeating what we already know.

So, there you have it! It seems evident that Janelle WILL vote out Will tomorrow, leaving the girls and Mike to battle it out for the final HoH. I really hope this will work!

Currently, Erika and Janelle are still talking.

2006-09-04T21:05:00.001-05:00

Well, the afternoon was somewhat exciting, so will the evening be even better? Not so much. The HG complained for most of it so I really didn't pay too much attention to the evening feeds. Here's what did happen this evening though in the BB house:

After getting their suitcases, the HG then get into a fuss (mainly Erika) about what they are going to wear for tomorrow's show. The HG were then put on a short outdoor lockdown so BB could give them stuff to do. (The HG have been complaining about the boredom all weekend.)

While on the lockdown, the HG speculated some more about the show's schedule. Erika seems to be the only one that thinks the show is ending earlier than expected. When the lockdown ended, the HG ran inside to see that BB gave them two games--Liar's Dice and some game having to do with rolling pigs. The HG weren't too thrilled and of course complained to BB about it.

Therefore, they spent much of the evening laying around and complaining about EVERYTHING. (Great, BB. You really made them happy now!)

The only real strategy talk came when Erika asked if Will was really going to take Janelle to the final two like she thinks he is. Will never really answered the question, but wouldn't tell Erika the truth anyway.

Currently, Janelle and Will are outside walking. Erika is finishing her packing, and Mike is in the HoH room sleeping. (Apparently, sleeping until past 12 wasn't enough?)

9/4 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-09-04T17:32:00.001-05:00

After a restful morning, the HG are now realizing the show may be ending quicker than expected. How will this affect their strategizing and the overall game? Here's the afternoon news from the BB house:

Erika was the first one up today at 12:15 PM. Mike was short to follow, and the two talked for a bit about what may be going on outside as the HG are on indoor lockdown. They think it's definitely a luxury competition, but are not sure what that luxury might be. They then don't think it's a luxury since it's Labor Day and the BB people probably aren't working today.

Will got up just after 1:00 PM, and a BB wake-up call came at 1:30 PM to wake Janelle up. Will thinks that maybe an America's Choice might be happening today. The HG did their goodbye messages, so they are sure that the schedule is speeding up and someone will be evicted tomorrow. (They don't know about the two live shows this week and about how the finale is one week from tomorrow.)

The HG still don't know what is going on outside, until the lockdown ends and nothing appears to have changed. (Ugh. I was getting excited too.) The HG think that either the show is ending early or something will happen to change the game--maybe someone from sequester coming back. They went on and on throughout the afternoon speculating.

Then, the wondering ends when Erika announces that BB has given her, Janelle, and Will their suitcases to pack. The HG are now sure a live show will be tomorrow, but don't know what will happen after that. The HG continued to speculate.

Currently, the three packers are packing, and Mike is relaxing by the pool.

Yes--it looks like it's going to be another sleep-all-morning day inside the house! The HG have yet to arise, thanks to going to bed well after 6:00 AM again. So, while the HG snuggle, why don't you check out my other blogs? On my Survivor one, I have been blogging the 20 new castaways and my predictions for them. As for my Amazing Race one, I haven't started blogging the 12 new teams yet, but I will tomorrow. Stop by and check them out!

Currently, all HG are still asleep.

2006-09-04T10:43:00.001-05:00

Someone remind me--why do I watch the feeds when nothing's happening? Ugh...I wish BB would do something to make these HG more exciting and such! Here's the very little events happening last night from the BB house:

Janelle told Will that even if she's going to get 2nd place, she still plans on taking Will to the finals with her. Will made a deal with Janelle to not talk strategy anymore and to not listen to whatever Erika tries to tell them. (NO! If they don't talk strategy, how am I going to get through watching the feeds?!)

Other than that, there was no (and I mean, no) strategy talk whatsoever. There probably won't be much of it for the rest of the season. Janelle and Will were the last ones asleep at just before 7:00 AM.

Currently, all HG are asleep.

9/3 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-09-04T00:12:00.000-05:00

Before I post, I recently received a comment about what might be happening in sequester. Unfortunately, CBS does not provide cameras in the sequester house--only during the sequester "diary room" type sessions and when a new juror arrives, which is shown on BB episodes. Other than that, we have no idea what might be happening in sequester. I assume they'll show James, Danielle, and George arrive at the jury house on Tuesday's live episode. Now, onto tonight's events from the BB house:

Janelle told Erika that she knows she cannot take Will to the final two should she win the final HoH. She thinks she can beat Mike in the finals. She then turns right around and tells Will she plans on taking him to the final two. Will asked if she still was all for evicting Erika this week, and Janelle said yes.

Mike thinks that Janelle shouldn't get too much credit for winning most of the competitions this season, since so many of the HG were throwing them. (I agree--I think this season, there has been a crazy amount of HG throwing competitions that Janelle is bound to win all of them because she is the only one that cares.)

There hasn't been too much strategizing this evening as all of the HG have been outside drinking by the hot tub for most of the night.

Currently, the HG are making some salads for a late dinner.

9/3 Show Recap

2006-09-03T23:59:00.000-05:00

Who will win HoH? And who will the new HoH nominate?

Erika doesn't know if she will get Danielle's jury vote to win. Janelle is happy that all of her studying pays off in the competitions. Will really did break his thumb in the PoV competition. Erika was thrilled when she won the PoV and saved herself. Janelle wasn't too happy about Erika's win. The HG were all sad to see George evicted. Will thinks that George would be his only jury vote to win. CT cannot believe that they are still in the house--and neither can Janelle. Erika is expecting Mike to take her to the final two since she saved him this past week. Mike isn't too sure about that one though. It seems very apparent that Erika has real feelings for Mike, while Mike has the direct opposite for Erika.

Erika cannot believe that she has started smoking again even though she vowed not to smoke again after her grandfather died of emphysema. Mike isn't too happy with it because he doesn't like to be around smokers. He thinks that she looks a lot older since she picked it up again. HoH competition: The HG get to dress up as referees! Erika wasn't too fond of them though. The HG report outside and see a backyard football field! It's time for the HoH Bowl! It involves questions about when certain events occurred this season. If you get the question wrong, you are penalized a certain number of yards according to the number you missed the question by. If you get the question right, you don't get penalized at all. The final scores are--Erika: 17, Mike: 6, and Will: 7, leaving Mike as the new HoH! CT celebrated Mike's HoH win. Their plan is to make Erika and Janelle so mad at each other that they will be targeting each other and not CT.

Mike got his HoH room, and it's the exact replica of Janelle's and Jase's room! (He didn't seem to notice though.) The HG celebrated their final four success. Will tried to convince Erika and Mike to have a baby together, and Erika liked his idea! (Is she serious?!) Will agreed to deliver it. Mike said he would do anything to secure his votes with Erika. Janelle and Will called off their relationship. Quote of the show--Janelle: "Get the hell away from me!" Will thinks their fight was serious and Janelle now wants him out. Erika tried listening to Janelle's and Will's conversation about getting Erika out. Mike ruined it and exposed her to the two. Janelle now really wants Erika out because their "secret" was exposed.

Erika really thinks she has met "the one," being Mike. However, Mike thinks otherwise, and says that Erika will be extremely hurt after the show and is scared of what she might do to him. Janelle isn't sure if CT is telling her the truth about keeping her if one of them wins the PoV. Mike and Will are telling both Erika and Janelle the exact same thing about keeping them, and Erika knows it! She seems not to care though. Mike thinks that their plan has gone perfectly so far. Erika doesn't understand why Mike can't nominate Will if she's "safe."

Mike is very relaxed with the nominations this week. Erika thinks she will be nominated, while Will doesn't really care if he is. And the sole key goes to...Will. (Shocker!) This of course leaves Erika and Janelle nominated.

Who will win PoV? And who will that person evict? Find out Tuesday!

9/3 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-09-03T20:51:00.000-05:00

Unfortunately I wasn't at a computer while watching the show today, so I was unable to do a recap. I'll still do one--but not until I can re-watch the show on CBS Innertube. Once I do, I'll have the show recap right away. Now onto the afternoon events from the BB house:

Janelle and Will were the first ones up today at just after 12:00 PM. They talked for a while and were the only ones up until a BB wake-up call at 12:30 PM. Will felt sorry for Janelle since Erika would be bugging her all day pressuring her to vote out Will.

Erika is upset that she seems to be the only one cleaning now that George has left.

Will fussed to Janelle on how much he needed a haircut, so Janelle is giving him one!

There hasn't been a whole lot of strategizing today simply because nothing else needs to be discussed. I'm not sure if Janelle has made up her mind--I think she wants to evict Erika but she isn't really looking farther into the game. Maybe things will change before Tuesday.

Currently, the HG are all outside watching Janelle cut Will's hair.

9/3 Live Feeds--Morning Report

2006-09-03T13:50:00.001-05:00

Of course, since the HG didn't go to bed until almost 8:00 AM this morning, they will probably be sleeping for most of the day. Ugh! That means another long night for me again.

Currently, the HG are still sleeping.

9/2 Live Feeds--Overnight Info

2006-09-03T09:59:00.001-05:00

Aha! Janelle wins PoV, so what do the HG do now? How about stay up all night? Yep...that's exactly what they did, much to my dismay. Here's all of the overnight activities occurring in the BB house last night:

The feeds returned just before 11:00 PM with Janelle wearing the PoV necklace. Erika looked very upset and knew that she would be leaving on Tuesday. BB gave the HG wine to celebrate. Apparently, the competition had something to do with questions as Erika could not believe she missed so many of them. I think the questions had to do with past food competitions. Mike tried to cheer Erika up, but it didn't really work. Janelle is ecstatic that she beat James' record and won five PoV's in one season.

Janelle wants to evict Erika, but isn't sure if it's the right move for her. CT convinces her that nobody will vote for them to win, so if she evicts Erika, and makes it to the final two, she will win hands down.

Erika tried to convince Janelle to keep her and evict Will. She says that she is happy with $50,000 and she will win guaranteed if she keeps her. Janelle just kept saying that she can win against anyone, not just Erika. She keeps going on about how if she wins, she will take Janelle to the final two, and CT won't. Janelle finally leaves the conversation with saying that she will think about it.

Will tried again to secure his place in the final three to Janelle. She tells him that she is still going to evict Erika no matter what she tells her.

Erika tells Mike that she is sure she is going. The two cannot believe that Janelle has now won nine competitions. Erika cannot believe that Janelle won't keep her because nobody in the jury will vote for her to win. She was sure that she could win the PoV competition.

The HG stayed up all night and even into the morning. Janelle and Will just went to sleep.

Currently, all HG are asleep.

9/2 Live Feeds--PoV Winner

2006-09-03T01:36:00.000-05:00

After about only an hour of fire, the feeds reurned, and...

For the fifth time (a BB record), Janelle has won PoV!

9/2 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-09-03T00:06:00.000-05:00

Finally--some fire! (I'd never thought I'd hear myself say that.) It looks like the PoV competition has finally gotten underway after nearly an 8-hour lockdown. Here's what has went down this evening in the BB house:

Once again, there was a lot of drilling, napping, and preparing for the PoV competition (whenever it decided to start) this evening. The HG tried a number of times to get BB to give them clues as to when the PoV competition would begin, but BB would not budge.

Mike and Will are still all for getting rid of Erika this week. They agree that Erika cannot win PoV because Janelle would then be evicted.

Before the fire, Erika was seen in her nomination chair, and Mike appeared to be in the diary room.

Currently, we still have fire, and probably will for the next couple of hours or so.

9/2 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-09-02T19:57:00.001-05:00

Will we EVER know when the PoV competition is? It doesn't looks like it will be anytime soon. So while we wait, here's the afternoon events from today in the BB house:

Erika and Will think that the PoV competition will be a big one because it is taking a while to set up and because it is the last one.

Mike and Will agree that "Operation Double Date" must go into full effect until Erika goes this week.

There was a lot of drilling in preparation for the PoV competition today. The HG also talked about what happened during competitions of previous seasons. The HG also saw a reflection of a baby pool in the kitchen mirror. In addition to all this, there was a lot of sleeping even though BB didn't wake them up until after 12:00 PM. (Is the house really that boring? Good Lord!)

There is still no word on the PoV competition. The HG have been on indoor lockdown all day.

Currently, the HG are all scattered throughout the house.

9/2 Live Feeds--Morning Report

2006-09-02T14:33:00.001-05:00

It's been a sleeping morning so far today (and this afternoon for that matter). Will the HG ever arise? It doesn't look like it. Here's the little news from this morning in the BB house:

Will was the first one up at 11:20 AM. Erika was short to follow. The two have been chit chatting since they got up. Janelle and Mike are still in bed.

No word yet on the PoV competition. It looks like it will be later this afternoon or sometime tonight.

Currently, Erika and Will are still talking.

9/1 Live Feeds--Overnight Info

2006-09-02T10:11:00.001-05:00

Well, it was a night full of strategizing--for two people. But hey, that's better than none! Here's the scoop from last night's happenings in the BB house:

Will told Mike to work on Erika to make sure that she isn't planning on voting Will out should she win PoV. The two agree that if the nominations stay the same, then Will is to vote Erika out, not Janelle, because Erika could beat them any day in an endurance competition. Will thinks that he could work Janelle to drop out of an endurance competition. They are still afraid that Erika and Janelle possibly are working together to make sure Will goes this week. Mike doesn't think that Erika will win PoV tomorrow. Will said that if he won the last PoV instead of Erika, then he would have gotten rid of Erika. The two go on for quite a while repeating themselves.

Janelle and Will stayed up again later than anyone talking about EVERYTHING on their minds. (We're talking nearly three hours of talking--and no strategy!) They finally drifted off to bed at around 3:00 AM.)

Currently, all HG are still asleep.

9/1 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-09-01T22:45:00.001-05:00

The nominations are set, so onto the strategizing for tomorrow's PoV competition! Or, maybe not so much. Nonetheless, here's the evening events from tonight in the BB house:

Erika is really freaked out because this is the week she went home in her season. Mike and Will say that it's three against one in the PoV competition and that they will do everything they can to make sure she is safe this week.

About 40 minutes after I reported the nominations, Erika and Janelle confirmed that they were the two nominated today. (No surprise there!)

Will is worried that Erika will vote him out if she wins PoV tomorrow. He says that he will try to convince Erika not to use the PoV, and Will will vote out Janelle. (Erika may be easily influenced, but C'MON Will--you can't be serious!) Will cannot believe how well their "double-date alliance" worked out. (Me either--these guys are unbelievably good!)

BB gave the HG a KFC feast. The HG felt really bad that George couldn't enjoy the feast. (Little do they know that George was awarded free KFC for a year on House Calls this morning!)

Erika is still freaking out over the PoV tomorrow. She has this feeling that she will go this week because of what happened in BB4. (I think she will go too--especially if Janelle wins PoV.)

So, there you have it. Mike has nominated Erika and Janelle for eviction. Tomorrow, the PoV will be played and we'll get to get a better idea of how things will go down on Tuesday's live eviction.

Currently, Janelle and Mike are the only two being shown on the feeds as they are playing cards.

9/1 Live Feeds--Nominations

2006-09-01T20:04:00.001-05:00

The feeds returned about 30 minutes ago, and the HG haven't really said much about what went down at the nominations ceremony. Will was playing with his key just a bit ago, so I would guess that Erika and Janelle have been nominated, as expected. I'll notify if anything else appears to differ.

9/1 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-09-01T18:52:00.001-05:00

It's Friday, so the nominations are on tap for the day. Who will be nominated? Hmm...I wonder. We'll see later though. BUT FIRST, here's what's happened this afternoon in the BB house:

Erika knows that Janelle wants her out, no matter what she tells her. Will says that he is going to try for the PoV because he wants to be the one to kick Janelle out of the house. Erika is nervous that Janelle will win PoV and that she will be evicted by her. Will tells her not to worry, let it play its course, and pumped her up for the PoV tomorrow.

Mike and Will agree that one of them must win the PoV tomorrow and cannot let either of the girls win it. (Well, duh! Thanks for clearing that up though, Mike...) Janelle comes up and says that she cannot wait to win the PoV and evict Erika.

The HG slept for most of the afternoon. (So, they get up late, and they still have to sleep for most of the afternoon? Get these HG some caffeine BB!)

We have had fire for the last ten minutes, and I believe that the nominations are currently in progress. There shouldn't be a shocker as to who will be nominated, since Mike is the HoH. Expect Erika and Janelle to be on the block when the feeds return.

Currently, fire on all four cams!

Another festive morning in the BB house!--of course I'm kidding. With only four HG left, it will only get more and more boring here on the feeds. So don't expect much. There is a little to be discussed though as here are the morning events of the BB house:

Kicking off with the stuff from last night, as once again the HG stayed up way past 3:00 AM--Janelle and Will stayed up and made "triscuit pizzas" for themselves while Erika and Mike went to bed at around 3:15 AM. Janelle stayed up later than anyone jedi drilling by herself before finally conking out at 5:45 AM.

On to this morning! Mike was the first one up at 10:30 AM. He was the only one up for half an hour before Erika joined him. The two cannot believe that Mike won HoH and that he has secured himself a spot in the final three.

When Janelle and Will rolled out of bed, Janelle asked him if he would actually try for the PoV this week and use it on her should he win. Will said yes. (NOT! Why on Earth would he use the PoV to save her when he would then go up? Think, Janelle, THINK!)

The HG were put on outdoor lockdown (probably to get them to do something; they were very lazy this morning), but were just now let back in. It doesn't appear that anything has changed inside the house.

No word yet on nominations. Usually they happen in the late afternoon on weeks with no food competitions.

Currently, all HG are outside talking.

So, who will win HoH? Read on to find out as I roll out the overnight events from last night in the BB house:

Janelle told Mike and Will that one of them has to win HoH. Mike told Will that this is his time to finally win something. Erika says that this week, the most powerful position lies in the holder of the PoV.

Beginning at around 8:25 PM, we had fire from the HoH competition. (Usually they show these...not sure why this week was an exception.) We had fire for nearly 90 minutes before the feeds returned with Mike has the new HoH. The game had something to do with being referees as the HG were all dressed up as them. Mike cannot believe that he won HoH and is in the final three. Erika isn't too happy about Mike winning because she knows that she will be nominated once again.

Erika asked Mike if he would not nominate her. Mike said it didn't matter who he nominated because the PoV is the most important power this week.

Mike's HoH room was fairly similar to Janelle's and Jase's on the first week. (Apparently, BB is starting to run out of ideas.) The HG received two different types of wine for their Thursday celebration.

Erika cannot believe how thin she has gotten. She then goes and talks to Mike, saying that he knows he cannot beat Janelle or Will in the final two, so his best move is to keep Erika this week.

So, there you have it. Mike won HoH, and it seems like he will definitely nominate Erika and Janelle, no matter how much Erika tries to convince him to do otherwise.

Currently, it seems that all HG are still up. Janelle and Will are getting some food from the storage room.

Well, well, well! The hour from Hell is over, and the HG can now relax...or can they? When will the next HoH competition be? I would expect soon, considering another HG will be evicted in just four days...here's what went down in the BB house since the feeds returned following the live show:

Will thinks he broke his thumb in the PoV competition and wants to see a doctor. (Can he not take a look at it himself? Haha...I know he's a plastic surgeon, not a doctor. Silly me.) Janelle said that she broke a nail.

The HG aren't sure about what's going down for the rest of the season, since there are still three weeks left. (Remember, the HG son't know about the scheduling change of BB this season. The finale was originally set for September 19, but was moved back a week for unknown reasons. There are actually only 12 days left.)

Janelle asked Erika if she was mad at her for being nominated for a third time by Janelle. Erika says no, but she'd rather not be nominated again. The two laughed.

Mike and Will agree that Erika cannot win HoH because she will nominate Janelle and Will, and Janelle will win PoV, which means one of them will be evicted--most likely Mike due to Janelle's vote. Mike is very nervous about the upcoming HoH.

The HG are all sad that George was evicted and wonder who will clean the house now. (What a shame--looks like you may all have to clean the house now. Darn!)

Janelle told Mike and Will that she wants Erika out really bad and says that Mike needs to win HoH to get rid of her.

There is still no word on the HoH competition. I would guess it would be soon.

Currently, Janelle is prepping Mike and Will for the upcoming HoH competition. Erika isn't to be seen on the feeds.

8/31 Show Recap

2006-08-31T19:57:00.001-05:00

Time for the first JAM-packed show of the season! Two people will be evicted--but who will they be?

Danielle never thought that Erika would put her up. George thinks that this week would be peaceful, and he thinks he is going. Will loves the fact that Danielle and Erika hate each other because of him, and they aren't even blaming him! (I totally agree Will!) Erika and Janelle both think that nobody knows they (individually) are with CT. Mike and Will assure George that he is with George and that he too is with CT! (So, we've got Erika, George, and Janelle all in CT, but nobody knows it? Hmm...) Mike and Will both assured Danielle that she was safe this week. Danielle has doubts though. Will told Danielle that she just needs to relax. Time for the live voting: Janelle--Danielle, Will--Danielle, and Mike--Danielle. By a unanimous vote, Danielle has been evicted from the BB house.

HoH competition: "Male or Female?" This game is much like the "Before or After" game played last season. The HG who gets the most points at the end wins. Winner--Janelle.

Janelle's nominations: Erika and George.

PoV Competition: "I'm Knot about Veto." Each HG is attached to a giant veto symbol by a knotted rope. The object is to untie your knot and grab your veto symbol. First HG to do so wins. Winner of PoV--Erika.

PoV ceremony: Erika used the PoV and put Mike up in her place.

Live voting #2: Will--George, and Erika--George. By a unanimous vote, George has been evicted from the BB house.

Who will win HoH? And who will be nominated by that new HoH? Find out Sunday!

8/31 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-08-31T18:48:00.000-05:00

Ugh...how I hate Thursdays--on the feeds anyway. Nothing happens! We never get strategy talk, and if anything exciting happens, fire will most likely block it. It's like the BB gods hate us or something on Thursdays. GRR!!

Other than the occasional chit-chit or other various stuff, nothing happened today on the feeds--I mean NOTHING. However, a little bit ago, a BB producer came on, but of course we got FIRE before he could say anything--something about the storage room.

Sigh--guess I have to wait in agony over tonight's show! It starts in just a few minutes here on the east coast. Unfortunately, for those in Tropical Storm Ernesto's path, the show may be blocked for part of the time do to weather coverage. I would advise the rest of us who are planning on taping the show to tape a little after 9:00 because the show may go over being so jampacked. Please, please, PLEASE make sure you check your local listings as I know some places have college football on instead of BB. I will have the full show recap (be prepared for a long one!) following the show.

Currently, (you guessed it) we have fire.

8/31 Live Feeds--Morning Report

2006-08-31T14:34:00.001-05:00

Erika stayed up for nearly two hours longer than anyone else before finally going to bed at 5:15 AM.

A BB wake-up call was issued at 11:00 AM, and George was seen as the first one up at around 11:15 AM. Every HG was seen awake but Janelle before the feeds went to the infamous fire at 11:50 AM. We have had it ever since.

Currently, we still have fire!--and probably will for most of the day.

2006-08-31T05:14:00.000-05:00

Well, the night wasn't as exciting as I hoped it to be. BB actually did not give them alcohol tonight, which probably led to the unexcitement. Here's how the night went down in the BB house:

Mike asked if George was nominating the two girls if he got HoH next week. He said yes. Mike is also concerned about Janelle's and Will's relationship with each other. He says that Will is acting as though they are planning to go out after the show, when Will actually has a girlfriend. Mike is just bothered by that.

Mike and Will agreed that they are going to try for the HoH tomorrow because they aren't sure if they are safe with the girls or not.

At this point, I would expect a Danielle eviction tomorrow, possibly by a unanimous vote. As for the rest of the night's happenings, I'm very excited to see the show tomorrow!

Currently, Erika is the only one still up, and she is outside by herself.

8/30 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-08-30T20:33:00.001-05:00

What sort of exciting events do the HG have panned out for them this evening? Well so far, it hasn't been too eventful--a lot of sitting around and doing nothing basically. Hopefully it gets better as the night goes on (as it usually does). Here's what's happened so far this evening in the BB house:

Will told Erika he thinks George would win over anyone, including Janelle, in the end. Erika wants the final four to be her, Janelle, Mike, and Will. He agrees. They go on about what's happened so far this season and what their predictions are for the rest of it. Erika says that once George is gone next week, their next target needs to be Janelle, and then they will play it out in the final HoH competition.

In case you're wondering, BB never gave the HG their trampoline back.

Once again, (and probably for the rest of the season) nothing has really been happening on the feeds. The house is just waiting until tomorrow night to see what happens. Hardly any strategy talk happens at this part of the week.

Currently, Erika and George are outside talking. Danielle is cooking dinner. The other HG aren't shown.

2006-08-30T17:42:00.001-05:00

So, did the afternoon get any better strategically speaking? Sort of. There has been a lot of repetitive information being shared among the HG though because Danielle is so paranoid on whether or not she will be leaving tomorrow. (She should be! The vote rests in CT's hands, of all people.) Here's the scoop from this afternoon in the BB house:

Janelle made sure that Mike and Will are both voting to evict Danielle. They said yes. Mike told the two about his conversation with Danielle this morning. He tells Janelle that she needs to stop talking to Danielle because she thinks that she will be safe this week.

The HoH camera arrived, and as always, the HG had a blast with it. Though, they couldn't get it to work at first--probably because Erika was trying to get it to work. Ha! Just kidding.

Mike asked Danielle who she would take to her in the final two. She said definitely Will, if he was still in, but definitely not George because she thinks the jury would give him the money because he needs it.

Other than that, there hasn't been a whole lot of new strategy talk--just a lot of rehashing of what we already knew.

Currently, all four feeds cams are on George sleeping.

8/30 Live Feeds--Morning Report

2006-08-30T14:52:00.001-05:00

Another sleepy morning we have today! Not to mention, hardly any game talk. Here's the few notes from the morning events inside the BB house:

Mike was the first one up at 8:20 AM today. He cooked breakfast and worked out while the rest of the HG slept in until a BB wake-up call coming just before 11:00 AM.

Mike told Danielle that she should be safe unless Will flips the vote and keeps George for some reason. Danielle is nervous because Erika has made her feel like she is the one going this week. Danielle is suspicious of Will's siding with Janelle lately. Mike says that Janelle is so annoying and needs to go immediately.

That has really been the only real strategy talk that happened this morning. The HG got up fairly late today, and the game talk has yet to heat up.

Currently, Janelle, Mike, and Will are outside talking, and Danielle, Erika, and George are inside playing cards.

2006-08-30T05:22:00.000-05:00

Time for dinner! The five-star dinner the HG earned in the food competition has arrived, but how will that heat up things in the house? It's a sizzling overnight in the BB house, and here's the scoop:

The five-star dinner arrived at just after 8:00 PM for the all-dressed-up HG. They got four bottles of wine, salads, bread, steak, lobster, plus desserts for after the meal. While eating, the HG noticed that BB had taken away the trampoline. (Not sure if they did that just so they wouldn't go jump on it after they stuffed or if it's gone for good.) The dinner lasted a full two hours before BB called an indoor lockdown.

Danielle told Erika that she forgives her for nominating her. Erika thanks Danielle and truly did not plan on putting her up. Danielle said that she would never have put up Erika though. The two agree that it's a game, and it's getting down to the wire. Danielle seems to know that she will be going Thursday. She told Erika not to take Will to the final two because she will vote for him. to win.

And the showmances heat up! Janelle tried to get Will to kiss her an umpteen number of times, but failed. Erika and Mike are getting very cozy in the HoH room. The feeds wouldn't show the HoH room, so not sure what really did happen.

Currently, all HG are asleep.

OoO excitement at last as the HG prepare for their big five-star dinner tonight. They keep saying they hear things outside and can't wait to see what BB has prepared for them. Here's the evening events that have happened since my last update in the BB house:

Danielle told Will that Erika has alligned with Janelle. Will acted surprised and says that one of them has to go next week. Danielle says that if she is HoH next week, there will be trouble. She also thinks that BB is building gazebos or something for tonight's five-star dinner.

Janelle told Erika that CT has to next week. Erika asked her who she was planning on putting up is she won HoH. She said Mike and Will. Janelle thinks that CT will sacrifice one of them to earn the two jury votes, while Erika isn't too sure about that.

The HG have been primping themselves for their big dinner tonight. They are making a pretty big deal out of it. (Good for them! We need some excitement after all the depression that's happened so far this week.) Janelle was told in the DR that dinner would be at 8:00 PM, which is in about an hour. I'm looking forward to it!

Currently, all HG are still primping.

8/29 Show Recap

2006-08-29T19:57:00.001-05:00

Who will win PoV? And will it be used to save either George or Janelle from eviction?

Janelle feels annoyed by her nomination and thinsk that the whole house is after her. (Ya think?) George isn't surprised by being nominated. Will is thrilled that CT is not nominated this week. George has no idea how CT made it this far in the game. Danielle is convinced that Erika and Janelle both have individual deals with CT. Danielle and Erika promised each other that they would take each other to the final two. Erika said that she wants to put up Will if George or Janelle wins PoV. However, she still is a "member" of CT, and still doesn't know what to do. Danielle wants CT out now.

It's Christmas in the BB house! And it's Neil Patrick Harris surprising the HG! He ate slop, brought the HG gifts, even did flips ont he trampoline! The HG got some pretty good gifts too. Mike and Will got Nintendo DS's, the girls got lingerie, and everyone got some new clothes. George told Mike and Will that he was struck by lightning! Will wants to get rid of Danielle this week by either George or Janelle winning PoV. Him and Janelle agree that Danielle cannot win the PoV this week. Mike told Erika that Danielle needs to go this week because she can beat anyone if she is in the finals. Erika agreed, and can't believe that she may have to put her up this week.

PoV Competition: All the HG get to play this week. However, they all play one at a time because...it's the Morph-O-Matic!...Or "Two Faced" this year. And the results are: George--24:23, Erika--1:51, Will--3:19, Janelle--1:00, Danielle--1:23, and Mike--7:42. Janelle wins PoV.

Erika has no idea who to put up in Janelle's place. CT is telling her to put up Danielle, and Danielle is telling her to put up CT. Janelle and Mike both tell Erika that Danielle could beat anyone in the finals. Erika thinks that CT needs to be broken up because she doesn't think they would pick her over each other.

Erika told Danielle that she was going to nominate her at the PoV ceremony, which sent Danielle into a crazy spell! She rang the HoH doorbell 20, 30 times, and Erika never responded to her. She is extremely upset and doesn't understand Erika now. PoV ceremony: Janelle did indeed use the PoV to save herself. Erika put Danielle up in Janelle's place.

Who will be evicted--Danielle or George? Find out Thursday!

2006-08-29T18:22:00.001-05:00

Another thrilling afternoon in the BB house...I think these HG are trying to set a new BB record for sleeping the most in one day! And I'm not liking it! Here's the scoop from this afternoon in the BB house:

George told Erika that he thought he heard Danielle say that she wanted Mike out last night. Erika tells George not to think about anything Danielle said last night because she was drunk and didn't know what she was saying.

Mike thinks that Danielle is OK with leaving now. Erika told him that George is worried he might be going Thursday. Mike said that he has nothing to worry about--CT controls the vote, and they are voting out Danielle.

Danielle thinks that Erika wants George and Janelle in the final three with her. Mike thinks that is a bad move for Erika then because she cannot beat Janelle at anything, including winning the game. As Danielle left, she told Mike that she would be seeing him next week.

BB called an indoor lockdown, and since then the HG have been sleeping.

Currently, all HG are asleep!

2006-08-29T14:45:00.000-05:00

It's a restful Tuesday morning in the BB house, and it shows...half of the HG aren't even up yet! Guess we'll have to wait until the afternoon for some excitement. Here's what did happen this morning in the BB house:

Danielle was the first one up today at 10:00 AM. After doing her morning routine, she cried and said that she was sorry to Sarah for not being able to save James. She still cannot believe that nobody wants to take her to the final two and wonders what she did wrong. She also misses her family and cannot wait to see them when this is all over.

We had a wake-up call at 11:00 AM to wake up the rest of the HG. George cleaned the kitchen. After the wake-up call, Janelle, Mike, and Will went back to bed.

Currently, the three up are outside.

So did the night get more exciting as it went on? Not so much...there just wasn't a whole lot of strategy to be discussed. Here's the little bit of info I've gathered from last night in the BB house:

Danielle and Erika had a talk in the HoH room. Danielle tells Erika that she doesn't know if she will vote for her in the end now. Erika replies with saying that it is just a game and wishes she can look past this.

Janelle, Mike, and Will prepared for the HoH competition on Thursday and wonder what type of competition it will be.

Danielle told Mike that Erika told her about having a secret alliance with Janelle. She also asked him if CT was voting to keep her, and he said yes. Mike reported this to Will, and Will said that he told Janelle to make it look like her and Erika are alligning together. They still agree that Danielle must go this week, with Erika going next week.

Janelle and Will were the last two asleep at around 2:20 AM.

Currently, all HG are asleep.

What an exciting evening...NOT. Hopefully it gets a little better as the night goes on. (I'm sure alcohol will play a part in tonight's festivities as well. Here's the evening news so far from the BB house:

The HG receive their five-star dinner tomorrow they earned in the food competition. They plan on getting all dressed up for it and taking dates as well.

Will told George he is officially a member of CT. (Didn't know you had to apply to become a member of a BB alliance! Silly me!)

Danielle asked BB for more beer. (Don't do it BB!!)

Other than that, nothing has really happened. The house is pretty depressed, thanks to Danielle.

Currently, Will is telling Janelle about why he has done certain things this season. The other HG are small-talking.

8/28 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-08-28T18:04:00.000-05:00

With the nominations set, how much strategizing will go on this afternoon? And will Danielle be able to cope with her nomination from her supposed alliance member? It's Monday afternoon, and here is the latest from the BB house:

Danielle is miserable now that she is nominated. Erika feels really bad. George tries to confort her saying that it is only a game.

George, Mike, and Will still can't believe that Janelle finished less than a minute in the PoV competition. Mike and Will tried to bring George into their CT alliance. They told him that once Danielle goes, it will be the girls versus CT, and George will be caught in the middle. They need him to take out Erika next week. George agrees that Erika must go because she won't commit to anything. (Look who's talking George!)

Mike and Will hope that Janelle wins the next HoH so they can take out Erika. Mike doesn't have a problem with voting Erika out since she told Will last night that she has been in an alliance with Danielle since the first week.

Danielle told Janelle to keep hanging in and to take out the rest of the house single-handedly and win.

Danielle is extremely upset and alone since she was nominated today, much like Janelle felt with Howie was evicted. I predict that she will get over it tomorrow. (Hopefully, anyway, I'm so sick of the negative atmosphere in the house this season! Make it fun for us, please!)

Currently, Danielle and Janelle are playing cards. Mike and Will are outside working out. Erika and George are not to be seen, but I think they are cooking some food.

8/28 Live Feeds--Morning Report

2006-08-28T14:52:00.001-05:00

Another Monday morning and another PoV ceremony in the BB house! Who will go up should Janelle save herself with the PoV? Plus what other exciting events lie in store for us this morning? Find out as you read the morning events from the BB house:

Danielle was the first one up this morning at 8 AM. A BB wake-up call came at 9:30 AM stating the PoV ceremony would begin in two hours.

Erika talked to George and Will before the PoV ceremony stating that she is still planning on putting up Danielle even though Danielle confronted her last night. They both agree that she is a good player, and you have to take the good players out.

Will told Mike that Erika will be putting up Danielle today for sure, and that they must vote out Danielle and not to give her any sympathy votes because Janelle talked of giving Danielle a sympathy vote.

The feeds were blocked for about ten minutes beginning at around 12:00 PM for the PoV ceremony. Janelle did use the PoV to save herself, and Danielle did indeed go up in her place.

Danielle asked Will if he had her vote. Will told her yes and not to worry. Danielle thinks she will be safe as Janelle and Will have both told her that they will vote to keep her. Danielle told Janelle that if she goes, to take Erika to the final two as nobody will vote for Erika to win.

So there you have it. Danielle and George will be voted upon for eviction on Thursday. Who will go? I say Danielle by a 2-1 vote. Janelle will probably keep her to get a jury vote from Danielle.

Currently, Danielle, Erika, and Mike are outside playing cards. Danielle is MUCH calmer than last night, and it seems very obvious that the alcohol made her so upset. (Maybe she should cut back a little...she is the only one to seem to be consistently influenced by it.) Janelle and Will are sleeping. George isn't to be found.

8/27 Live Feeds--Overnight Info

2006-08-28T05:18:00.000-05:00

What a night! A night of drinking, fighting, hiding even...how did this all come together? It's a crazy overnight in the BB house:

Mike and Will say they are exhausted because it took so much effort to convince Erika to agree to put up Danielle. Janelle wonders who George will put up if he wins HoH. Will hopes he would get rid of Erika, but he doesn't know.

Danielle is now extremely upset that Erika wants her out after she had her back since the beginning. When BB gave them their alcohol, she got extremely drunk, and actually started to scare Mike and Will with her behavior. They went up to hide in the HoH room. She has an extremely long argument with Erika calling her out on everything. Afterwards, Erika runs up to the HoH room to talk to Will.

She says that she can't nominate Danielle. She can't take this all week. She now wants to nominate George. Will says that George will do the same thing because she told him he was safe. After their talk, Erika realizes that Danielle needs to go, but she's going to have a hard time dealing with her for the rest of the week.

George was the last one asleep at 2:15 AM.

And that's about it! Whoo! Danielle went crazy over the night. What I said doesn't even come close to how upset she is at Erika. Sure, alcohol had something to do with it, but she still took it a bit too far. I would still expect her to be nominated at the PoV ceremony.

Currently, all HG are asleep.

8/27 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-08-27T21:02:00.001-05:00

Are the HG getting ahead of themselves with wanting certain people out? The PoV ceremony has yet to occur, and they are already talking about who to get rid of next week! It's an evening of moving along in the BB house:

Danielle is having regrets about how she played the game and wished she kept Marcellas now. She wants her suitcase so she can get her packing over with.

She asked Janelle why she votes out James. Janelle said it was because James told George to backdoor Janelle, and George reported this to Janelle. Danielle still can't believe how badly James acted when he threw all those PoV's. Janelle agrees with her. Danielle told Janelle that Erika broke the news of backdooring her to Danielle. Janelle feels bad for her. Danielle knows that she is going home now, and wishes she had kept Marcellas longer. She tried to work Janelle for a vote, but Janelle never gave her a straight answer. Danielle says that she hopes Janelle wins and told her to follow her gut from here on out. She wishes she had played the game more intensely.

Danielle then talked to George and told him to work with Janelle and to not trust Erika. George told her that he will do whatever he can to make it to the end. They are both upset about Danielle leaving.

Janelle can't believe Will convinced Erika to get rid of Danielle. Will says that their next move is to get rid of Erika. Janelle agrees. Janelle has convinced Erika that she will go after CT should she win HoH.

Currently, the HG are cooking up some dinner. At this point, it does look like Danielle will go up tomorrow and will probably be evicted on Thursday.

8/27 Show Recap

2006-08-27T19:56:00.001-05:00

Who will Erika nominate?

Will told the HG that he is solely responsible for the past three evictions. Danielle and Mike don't know why Janelle voted James out. Mike told Danielle to not blame him for James' eviction because he could not vote. Danielle wants Will out. Erika was extremely happy to finally win an HoH, and thus get a guaranteed spot in the final five. She told Danielle that she was safe. Janelle is not happy that Erika won. Will said that he has now lost 21 HoH's in a row. The house taught George and Janelle how to play poker. Janelle won every game they played, much to the house's dismay. OoOoO Erika's HoH room! It's a floral paradise!--much to Will's dismay. George was upset at all the food Erika got--especially the homemade chocolate chip cookies. Danielle still does not understand why Janelle votes against James. They think she has a deal with someone else in the house. They think that Janelle and Will have some sort of deal together, which makes Danielle want to get rid of Will even more.

The HG have had a blast with George's bellyflopping. Danielle told Will that she was extremely upset that Will voted him out. Will assured her that he is going after Janelle next, not her, because Janelle told him she was coming after CT. Danielle cannot wait to evict Will. Janelle enjoys flirting with Will, and it makes her feel good. Erika told Mike that she is putting Janelle and Will up. Erika wants Janelle to go, but she doesn't have a problem with Will going to the jury because that's another vote for either one of them to win. Mike doesn't want Will to go this early though. Erika doesn't know who Mike wants out more--her or Will. Mike says that he wants to go farther with Will than Erika, but needs to make sure Erika doesn't think that.

Time for the food competition! The HG got to dress up in these outdoor-esy type costumes. The birds (Danielle/Janelle) and the bees (Mike/Will) post pollinate these huge flower baths and deliver it to the sunflowers (Erika/George). They will then place the nectar in a container labeling a certain food or luxury. So what did the HG earn? They lost the red room to earn meat and fish for the week, they got one day of slop to earn a trampoline, they got another day of slop to earn Christmas in August (Janelle of course went off on what she wants BB to give her for the Christmas), George got a slop pass, a five-star dinner, and they got alcohol for the week in exchange for the pool table.

CT needs Erika to keep Janelle and instead get Danielle out. Will tried to convince Erika to get rid of Danielle this week instead of Janelle. Erika doesn't think that Danielle would come after her, but Will thinks otherwise. He told Erika that Danielle is unbeaten when it comes to the finals. The two agreed that Danielle is currently the biggest threat.

Order of keys: Danielle, Mike, and Will, leaving George and Janelle nominated.

Who will win PoV? And will it be used to save either George or Janelle from eviction?

2006-08-27T18:05:00.000-05:00

Oops! I forgot to remind you all about the show tonight in my last update. In case you forgot, BB is on tonight at 8 PM. The show should contain this week's food competition as well as Erika's nominations. Not sure if Christmas in August will be shown. My guess is no. As always, expect a show recap from me following tonight's show here on the east coast.

8/27 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-08-27T17:32:00.001-05:00

Ahh...even though Christmas is still four months away, the BB HG are getting into the spirit a little earlier! What's this--complaining about the gifts? Maybe they're not so spirited...here's the afternoon events from the BB house:

The HG spent much of the afternoon trying to get some sleep they failed to get during the overnight. As the HG awoke for the second time today, some tried on the new clothes they received, while others surveyed all the new gifts the HG got. Apparently, Will also got a Nintendo.

Erika and Will think that BB spent at least $300 on each of the HG for the Christmas, so they better be grateful for what they did receive. (Despite the great gifts they got, Will and a selected others still complained about them!)

Danielle wonders why Erika has been acting a little off lately. Will thinks it's because she likes Mike, but Mike doesn't like her as much because she's so much older than he is. (She's only like three years older Will! And why does that matter? Shouldn't be what's on the inside? :) Danielle feels bad for her.

Erika asked Janelle who she will put up if she wins HoH. Janelle responded with George and Mike. They agreed that Erika would vote out Mike, while Will votes out George. Then Janelle would be the tiebreaker and vote out Mike. Janelle said that she wants to be responsible for removing CT from the house. The two are both excited.

Danielle told Will that she is scared of being in the final two because she doesn't want to lose again and disappoint her family.

Erika told Danielle that she plans on putting her up tomorrow because she would beat her in the final two. She then started crying and feels bad for what she's about to do. Danielle said not to worry about it, and that it's just a game.

Currently, Will is cheering Erika up by telling her that this is just a game, and she has to do what has to be done. The other HG are scurried around the house.

8/27 Live Feeds--Morning Report

2006-08-27T14:06:00.001-05:00

Christmas in August has begun! We had fire through it unfortunately though...the feeds returned just a bit ago. Here's what I've come up with through this morning when he have had feeds in the BB house:

The HG were woken up for the Christmas celebration at 9:30 AM, not even three hours after Erika and Mike had gone to bed for the night. The feeds were blocked for nearly two hours while the HG partied.

When the feeds returned, Will confirmed that Neil Patrick Harris ("How I Met Your Mother") paid a visit to the HG. They then talked about what each received as gifts. Janelle got a Sidekick cell phone. The girls all got lingerie. George got a chicken head visor, as well as a camera. The house got a DVD player, but they cannot use it yet. Some HG got new pillows. The HG all got new clothes in addition to their various gifts. I guess we'll know the full lowdown when it goes on the show (probably not until Tuesday).

BB called an indoor lockdown in order to clean up the backyard. The HG all pretty much went to bed after this call.

Currently, all HG are asleep.

2006-08-27T09:53:00.000-05:00

Janelle did indeed win PoV. So, what else happened last night? Let's check out the overnight events from the BB house:

From what the HG are saying, Janelle finished in less than a minute, while George took 24 minutes. Danielle and Erika each finished in about 2 minutes. Will finished in 3 minutes, and Mike did it in 7. (These are just estimations from what the HG have been saying.)

Mike and Will convinced Erika that Danielle must be put up and thus evicted. Erika doesn't want to do it because she will lose Danielle's jury vote. Mike and Will said that they will vote for her if she puts Danielle up. Shortly after, Danielle asked Erika if she was putting her up, and Erika said no. (So what is she doing?)

Danielle told Will that she will not vote for her in the finals because she has won too much. (?? Isn't that a reason you're supposed to vote for someone?) She told Will that Janelle is just lucky. She goes through all the HoH's and PoV's that Janelle won and insists that they were all given to her or that she cheated during them. (And how many have you won where they have not given it to you Danielle? ZERO!)

Erika and Janelle talked in the HoH room. Erika doesn't know who to put up. They talk about Danielle, and Janelle says that she will win if she is in the finals. Janelle starts to push for Mike to be nominated because she doesn't like him, and Mike doesn't like her. Erika asks Janelle if she should put up Will, and Janelle continues to push for Mike. Erika still has no idea what to do. She calls Mike up to HoH. Erika tells him that she doesn't want to keep Mike and Will in the house for another week. Mike says that Danielle and Janelle are the same way (in terms of getting votes at the end). She then calls Will up, and Will told her that he will take her to the final two, even over Mike. (Earlier, Mike said the same thing--only in reverse.) She then calls George up, and he thinks Danielle should go. She then calls Mike back up and tells him that she is putting up Danielle.

Erika and Mike stayed up for the entire night and even some of the morning talking about who should go up. They finally went to bed at 7:15 AM. At this point, it looks like Erika will put up Danielle, with Danielle being the target.

Currently, all HG are still sleeping. Christmas is today! Look for some long feeds blocks.

PoV

2006-08-27T01:06:00.000-05:00

Janelle won PoV!!!!!
As I expected, It was the morph-o-matic competition comprised of evicted houseguests.
Supposedly Janelle did it in ONE minute!!!
More in the morning

8/26 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-08-26T22:51:00.001-05:00

With the PoV competition rapidly approaching, which HG will plan on playing and which plan on throwing? The whole house plays as the evening events roll on in the BB house:

Danielle and Will discussed possibilities for tonight's PoV competition.

Will and Janelle briefly talked. Janelle is extremely nervous for the competition. Will said that their only problem is Danielle winning, so Janelle told him to not let Danielle win.

Mike and Will talked once again. Mike plans on throwing the competition, while Will is going to try for it. If he wins it, he will remove George, so Erika will put up Danielle. They will then vote Danielle out. They want to be in the final three with George because nobody will vote for George, should he make it to the end.

We have had fire since 8:20 PM. Shortly before, Erika was called to the diary room. It seems most definite that the PoV competition is currently in progress.

I'll have the result when I know it!

8/26 Live Feeds--PoV Announcement

2006-08-26T20:31:00.001-05:00

BB: "Attention HG: The PoV competition will begin in two hours (8:30 PM BBT).

8/26 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-08-26T19:03:00.001-05:00

Will the PoV competition ever start? It's an afternoon of waiting and wondering in the BB house:

The HG have been on an all-day indoor lockdown while BB sets up the PoV competition. (Speaking of which, Will just announced that the PoV competition will be sometime early evening, as reported to by BB. [6-9 PM BBT, my guess.] He also said that BB will give them a two-hour warning prior to the start of the competition.)

Mike said that Erika told him last night if Will wins PoV, to use it on George, and that way Erika will have to put Danielle up as a replacement. If he uses it on Janelle, Danielle might get suspicious. They gave assignments to each other: Mike's is to completely convince Erika that Danielle must go this week, and Will's is to win PoV tonight.

Danielle told Erika about her talk with Dr. Zachary. She told her to be herself, so Danielle says that she is now the Danielle from BB3 and is coming full force after CT. Erika is happy for her. Danielle says that there is no way she is going to win because she plans to be mean from here on out. She just now realizes how much she has been played by CT.

Mike and Will told George they plan on saving him if they win PoV, so Danielle will go up and out.

Danielle and Erika continue to rehash their favorite moments of this season and get pumped up for the next HoH. Danielle told Erika that he she wins PoV, she plans on taking George off and putting Will up, so Will goes. Erika says that Janelle needs to go before Will. Danielle agrees. They agree that they have to convince Mike and Will to throw the next HoH so Danielle will win it and take out George, when she will really put CT up.

Currently, George, Janelle, and Mike are playing cards. Erika is laying down, and Danielle and Will are not to be found!

2006-08-26T13:49:00.001-05:00

What an exciting morning in the BB house...NOT! The HG slept in pretty late, and no strategy talk has happened this morning. So what DID happen? Let's find out with the morning events inside the BB house:

Danielle was the first one up at 10:25 AM. Will was short to follow, and the two joked that the PoV competition will be at 3:00 AM tonight, so Janelle will be the only one alert during it, and thus win it.

Overall, nothing else has happened. Janelle and Mike are the only two not awake yet. It seems that the PoV competition will be later today, possibly tonight, as BB has yet to make an announcement about it.

Currently, Danielle, Erika, and George are cleaning up the kitchen. Janelle and Mike are still sleeping. Will is not to be found.

8/25 Live Feeds--Overnight Info

2006-08-26T09:33:00.000-05:00

With the nominations in place, the HG must prepare for what will unfold at the PoV competition. How will they strategize? Who wants to save who? Find out as I unravel the overnight events from the BB house:

Danielle and Mike talked about how hard the game is now, since there is only six HG left. Danielle said that from now on, when she tells Mike something, she means it.

Apparently the alcohol doesn't arrive until tomorrow, because Danielle complained about BB not giving them any beer. Also, they get unlimited eggs along with their meat. The HG talked of making steak and eggs and the like tomorrow.

Janelle and Will talked. Will said that he will tell Mike to talk to Erika about putting Danielle up should Janelle win PoV. He will tell Erika that Danielle is coming after her, so the best thing for her to do is to put Danielle up. Will: The best-case scenario--Janelle goes off and Danielle goes up and out. The worst case scenario--George goes off and Will goes up, and Janelle goes out.

BB gave them a feast of shark, mahi-mahi, buffalo wings, turkey sausage, shrimp, and steak, along with beer and wine. They immediately fire up the grill to cook some of the meat.

Mike and Will talked once again about convincing Erika to put up Danielle should George or Janelle win PoV. They will vote to evict Danielle, leaving her evicted.

Erika and Mike talked. Mike did an excellent job of convincing Erika that Danielle must go up if the PoV is used. Erika is all for saving Janelle and putting up Danielle, especially since Janelle saved her the two times she was nominated by Janelle. (Well, the first time she was, but certainly not the second time. CT played her!)

The HG pretty much all went to bed at the same time, just before 3:00 AM. All HG are currently asleep.

8/25 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-08-25T23:01:00.000-05:00

George and Janelle are indeed the nominations; how will the HG react? It's Friday evening, and here's the latest from the BB house:

Janelle said that Danielle must go this week because she is so controlling of Erika. CT agrees that Janelle has to win PoV; otherwise, Erika will put up Will next to Janelle to ensure that Janelle will go.

Many of the HG (Erika and Will mainly) have bruised themselves up pretty badly from the food competition.

The trampoline arrived. (Hmm...thought it wasn't coming until tomorrow afternoon?) Mike and Will immediately jumped on it, even though BB said only one HG was allowed on it at a time. All the HG had a turn, except Janelle who said she was too tired at the moment. George rolled all around the place while Will ferociously trampled the trampoline. Will stayed on it for most of the evening.

Danielle and George talked about the money BB gives them for making sequester. George said in his season, they got an additional $1,600 for making it. Danielle says that they get so much more now, and then went on to say how much Diane needed to make sequester because of financial trouble.

The HG are currently fixing up some slop for dinner.

8/25 Live Feeds--Nominations

2006-08-25T19:55:00.000-05:00

After nearly two hours of fire, the feeds returned. George confirmed that he was nominated, and I'm pretty sure that Janelle is next to him. I'll update if needed.

8/25 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-08-25T18:50:00.000-05:00

Ahh Friday...nominations today! What will Erika do? It's an afternoon of constant strategizing in the BB house, and here's the report:

Mike told Will that he thinks he can sway Erika to not nominate Will. Will tells Mike that if George and Janelle are nominated, then they must help Janelle win PoV. First, Mike has to convince Erika to not nominate Will though.

A note from the food competition--today is the only day the HG are on slop (except George and Erika).

Erika and Will talked. Erika told Will that she plans on nominating George and Janelle. If Janelle wins PoV, she will put Will up, but assures him that George will be the one going. They agree that Janelle cannot win the PoV and must go this week. Assuming Janelle does go this week, the next target will be Danielle. They continue talking, and Will is afraid that Danielle is coming after CT should she win HoH. Erika said that she is gunning for George. Will doesn't believe her. They continue to predict the events following this week. (How can you do that? The nominations for THIS week haven't even happened yet. Don't get ahead of yourselves, now!)

George and Janelle talked. Janelle thinks that they will be nominated against each other. George thinks the PoV will be physical, as they have been recently. Meanwhile, Will reported to Danielle about his talk with Erika. (Nothing she didn't already know.)

We have had off and on fire for about the last hour now. It looks like it's going to stay fire as the nominations should be in progress. I'll have the result as soon as I know it!

8/25 Live Feeds--Food Competition

2006-08-25T15:31:00.000-05:00

The feeds returned just a bit ago. Here's the scoop from the food competition:

The HG earned a trampoline for the rest of the season, arriving tomorrow afternoon. They also earned "Christmas in August," which will be occurring on Sunday. The HG aren't sure what that will entail. George also got a week-long slop pass. As for the food side of it, the HG can only eat meat, but they get liquor for the entire week.

The HG are currently under indoor lockdown as BB cleans up the competition area. More to come later as the events unravel!

ACK!! Blogger, the blogging site I'm using is EXTREMELY down right now, so if the site isn't loading--don't freak out. It took ages for it to load for me! Onto the morning events in the BB house:

Janelle was the last one asleep last night at 5:00 AM. This morning, Erika was the first one up at 9:00 AM. BB issued a number of wake-up calls from 10-11 AM to get the restless HG out of bed for what? A food competition!

Here's the scoop: Everyone has these cool little suits on. Danielle and Janelle are birds, Erika and George are flowers, and Mike and Will are bees. The HG must work together to get the nectar from the flowers to the bees, and then the honey from the bees to the birds. We have had fire for the last 30 minutes. (Usually they show us these food comps! Darn them!)

Once the feeds return, I'll update anything I notice.

8/24 Live Feeds--Overnight News

2006-08-25T05:22:00.000-05:00

Will the strategizing continue as we head into the night? It's getting closer to the nominations with the overnight events of the BB house:

Time to see Erika's HoH room! It's a totally girled-out room with little flowers everywhere. After everyone left, Danielle and Erika talked. Danielle doesn't know why Janelle voted against James. Danielle doesn't understand why Will told her James' eviction was his (W) fault. The two think that Janelle is with CT. Erika can't believe that "we" (her and Danielle) are HoH. (Even though Danielle isn't really HoH...)

Will told Mike to tell Erika that if she puts up George and Janelle, to put up Danielle if one of them comes off. They think that Janelle will definitely be nominated, but Mike is worried that Will may be put up as a pawn. Will just told Mike to talk to Erika later to see what see is going to do tomorrow. Shortly after, a Mexican feast arrived for the HG (except George, that is).

Mike told the HG about the expired Coup d'Etat power. The HG then talked about having a food competition tomorrow. (Not sure if this is true or not--usually food comps are over once sequester starts.)

Mike had a long talk with Erika about her nominations. She told Mike not to worry and that the two of them are safe. She will nominate George and Janelle. If one of them comes off, Danielle will go up.

Currently, Janelle and Will are the only ones up. They seem to be going to go to bed soon.

8/24 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-08-24T21:15:00.000-05:00

Aha! Erika wins HoH, so what sort of strategizing will we see on this Thursday evening? It's the evening events from the BB house:

Mike and Will discussed this week. They agree that they must do everything they can to make sure Janelle wins PoV. Even if Will is nominated next to her, Janelle has to win the PoV. Will agrees--he doesn't care if he goes home but Janelle must stay. They say that they will do everything they can to make sure Danielle goes this week.

Erika told George that she plans on putting him up as a pawn alongside Janelle. Danielle later told him the same thing. Later, Erika told Danielle that she will nominate George and Janelle, with Janelle being the target.

Danielle told Mike that she is coming after Will full force.

Janelle thinks that her and Will are going up tomorrow.

Currently, all the HG are scurried around the house.

8/24 Show Recap

2006-08-24T19:57:00.000-05:00

Who will be evicted--George or James? And who will win HoH?

James thinks that George will leave this week. George is not going to campaign for votes and hope for the best. Will thinks that James is playing both the LoD's side and Janelle's side. Erika doesn't know who to vote out. Danielle thinks the best thing to do is to vote out George. Danielle and Janelle agreed on a one-week truce. Danielle told Janelle that she will go after CT if she wins the next HoH. Janelle told James that she will vote to keep him, which makes James feel confident he will stay this week. Will told James that he has nothing to worry about. Danielle needs James to stay for her emotional self. She will go crazy if James is evicted this week. Will told Mike that James must go this week for CT's personal safety next week.

Time for the jury house! The house is beautiful, and of course Marcellas' constant bitching ruins it! GRR...! Howie walks through the door, and he screams! Marcellas is not happy about Howie joining him in the jury house. Howie was pretty offensive while watching the week's events with Marcellas. Looks like an intense week in the jury house!

A showmance here, a showmance there--a special on Mike and Will's showmances with Erika and Janelle. While Erika and Mike's relationship is more physical, Janelle and Will's is more flirtatious. Will thinks Erika is kissing everyone's ass--and she is! He thinks Janelle is much more trustworthy and nice than Erika is. Time for Julie's talk with Mike: He says that keeping Janelle in the game poses a bigger target on her than CT. He somewhat trusts Janelle. He hopes that him and Will can make it to the finals together. DR sessions: Erika doesn't know what George is doing. Danielle needs James to stay. Janelle thinks that James and her go so far back, but doesn't feel that she can trust James 100%. Will thinks that James is the bigger threat. Danielle will go absolutely psycho if James goes this week.

Time for the live voting: Erika--James, Will--James, Danielle--George, and Janelle--James. By a vote of 3-1, James has been evicted from the BB house.

HoH Competition: It's called BUT FIRST!! The game is similar to the Higher or Lower game. If the statement is true, step up. If it is false, step down. 1st out--George and Janelle. 2nd out--Danielle and Will. Winner of HoH--Erika.

Hmm...next Thursday is TWO evictions! Not sure how that will go down...

8/24 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-08-24T18:23:00.000-05:00

Before I begin another live feeds update, let me tell you about yet another blog I have created! The next season of Survivor begins Thursday, 9/14 at 8:00 PM. Thus, I have created a survivor blog that will cover show spoilers, news, and of course, recaps. I'm just getting it started, so it may be a bit before I get the blog up and running. The site for it is survivor-13-cook-islands.blogspot.com. So, I now have three blogs: bbvii.blogspot.com, amazingrace10.blogspot.com, and the Survivor one. Make sure you check them all out! And now on to the afternoon events inside the BB house:

Danielle and Erika talked about tonight's vote. Danielle knows that even though James will be evicted, she still has to vote for him. She told Erika to explain that to George so he isn't mad at her. Erika told Danielle that having James' jury vote will help her. The two still think that Marcellas took every prize in the PoV competition. (Janelle won--Kaysar was evicted.) They also still believe that the "power" can be used tonight. (Well, it could if Mike didn't have it.)

Danielle told James that he knows he is being evicted tonight. She starts to cry and doesn't want to believe that he's leaving. James tells her not to let anyone see her crying because it shows that she is getting weak. James tells Danielle to go after CT, but she tells him that she needs to be next to someone from CT to get jury votes. Danielle said that if James goes, CT would lose three jury votes when it comes to the finals. She goes on to say that she will work with Janelle to take out Will. She is extremely upset.

We have had fire for the last hour and probably will until after tonight's show. Speaking of which, don't forget about it! It will contain the events in the house since the PoV ceremony, plus the live eviction and HoH competition. As always, I will have a full recap following the show here on the east coast.

2006-08-24T15:06:00.000-05:00

With the eviction and HoH competition only hours away, will the HG decide on an evictee? And what sorts of strategizing will occur as we zone in on the HoH competition? It's Thursday morning in the BB house, and here's the latest:

From last night, Janelle went to bed at 3:30 AM.

Moving to this morning, Erika was the first one up at 10:20 AM. Shortly followed was a wake-up call featuring music, "Lucky Star" by Madonna.

James told Danielle that he really wants to stay this week and start to play the game. (Bad time to start James--considering you are probably going to be evicted in about six hours!)

CT talked about tonight's HoH competition. Mike tells Will to throw it, let Janelle win and take out either Erika or Danielle, then they will win HoH next week and take Janelle out. Will says that he trusts Janelle 100%, and Mike said he thinks he trusts Erika, but Will isn't so sure. They then told Danielle that they want her to vote out James. Danielle said that she would do whatever they wanted her to do, whether she agreed with it or not.

Currently, we keep getting off and on fire as much of Thursdays always are.

8/23 Live Feeds--Overnight Info

2006-08-24T05:27:00.000-05:00

Will BB once again give the HG alcohol, or will we have to suffer through their complaining? It's another overnight, and here are the events of it from the BB house:

Danielle pushed Erika to keep James because he will go after CT for them. Erika is not budging. Danielle tells her that she will be voting to keep James tomorrow. Erika tells her that George won't put her up, so she has to vote to keep him. She then tells her that George will get rid of Janelle and Will for them because he thinks they are after him. Erika really thinks that George could win. Danielle thinks that she is crazy for thinking that. She goes on to say that James is too sneaky and that he needs to go, but he will vote for Danielle if she goes to the finals.

Janelle told Will that Erika will vote however Mike wants because she always votes along with the HoH. Will said that he is glad Marcellas went out when he did and wants Danielle out. Mike joins them and wants Janelle and Will to go to bed a little earlier tonight.

Mike told George that he was safe because both Janelle and Will are voting out James, and he will break the tie to keep him. He then tells Erika that he wants Danielle to be the only vote against George, so he would go after her should be win HoH tomorrow.

Much to James' dismay, BB gave the HG alcohol again, so expect another long night! George made a toast and thanked the HG for accepting him thus far. James and Janelle started chugging beers. Janelle chugged one in four seconds. The HG (with the exception of George and Mike, who went to bed) spent much of the night drinking and drinking and drinking.

Will assured Danielle that Janelle will win HoH tomorrow and put up CT, not Danielle. James told Danielle that he plans on putting up Erika and Mike if he wins HoH, then put up Janelle should PoV be used.

Currently, Janelle is the only one up reading the Bible.

8/23 Live Feeds--Evening News

2006-08-23T21:16:00.000-05:00

Another day, another evening. The hours are dwindling down for either George or James. Will the HG make a clear decision on who they want out? (Do they ever? I didn't think so.) Here's the evening stuff from the BB house:

The HG think that the indoor lockdown may be an all nighter and are not happy about it.

James tells Danielle that if the vote is 3-1, then she knows that Erika is not on her side. If it's 2-2, then she knows that Erika is on her side, and thus the two will do fine dealing with Janelle and CT. James then yells up to BB to not give the HG alcohol tonight. Danielle says that she needs alcohol to get through tonight. (Is it just me, or is Danielle sounding more like an alcoholic as the days go on?) James says that the last thing they need is for Erika to get drunk with Mike again--they need her on their side, not his.

The indoor lockdown did end. It appears that nothing changed in the backyard.

Danielle and Erika know that James will be evicted tomorrow. Erika says she isn't happy about it, but she likes George more than she does James.

Mike doesn't think that Danielle will put CT up; however, Will thinks she might if she thinks CT was against James the whole time. They aren't sure about what Erika and George would do if they won HoH. They agree to talk to Danielle and tell her that James was coming after CT, so they had to evict him. Janelle joins them and talks about how James is going to react tomorrow when he find out that he is evicted. CT thinks he will go out quietly since he complained about the way Howie went out. Janelle hopes James doesn't get mad at her.

James asked Erika if he had her vote. Erika told him that she had already promised she would keep George safe this week if he put up either Howie or Janelle last week. James told her that George is coming after everyone except Janelle, while James is only going after Janelle. Erika told him that she would think about it and get back to him later.

The two are currently talking on all four feeds. At this point, I'm not sure how the voting would go down. I think that originally Janelle was going to keep James to make it a tie, but if Erika switches, then Janelle may just vote James out to make it a tie. I'm not sure. I guess we'll have to wait until tomorrow to know for sure!

8/23 Live Feeds--Afternoon Update

2006-08-23T18:55:00.000-05:00

Hmm...quite a bit of talk this afternoon (for a change)! What sort of scheming will happen today in the BB house? Here's the latest news:

Danielle tells James that she is nervous about the vote, and if CT votes James out, she will go after CT. She plans on putting George up with a CT member. Then if George wins PoV, she will put the other CT member up so one CT member goes home no matter what if she wins HoH. She also said that she will join up with Janelle if James leaves.

Erika, Mike, and Will are practicing for the HoH competition. Will once again isn't doing such a good job. (I'm not sure if he's doing this on purpose or not--I just don't think he wants to win HoH. He did perfectly fine in S2 without ever winning one.) Mike wants to stop, but Will insists that he needs more practice. Erika leaves to go talk to Danielle and James.

Erika and Danielle talked. Erika says George feels bad about evicting Howie. Danielle says that she cannot take the game, and originally opted not to do BB7, but the producers convinced her to come on the show. Meanwhile, James asked Janelle if she knew anything about the vote. Janelle said no because she isn't sure how Danielle is voting. James isn't either--saying she won't give him a straight answer.

George and James talked about each other's game play. James still doesn't know why George put up Howie--he said Mike had a point and that convinced him to do it. James thinks that Howie is more mad at CT for promising him a vote and then backstabbing him. George asked James why Kaysar got rid of Nakomis. James said it was because she was a good player in her season.

Danielle and Erika had an emotional talk. Erika tried to lift Danielle's spirits by telling her to visit Dr. Zachary (the BB psychiatrist) and talk to her about it. Danielle keeps saying that she can't take the game this season--she isn't the same Danielle from BB3. They both know that if James leaves, they will be extremely sad.

Janelle is having regrets about agreeing to vote out James. She doesn't want America to hate her for backstabbing her own alliance. (No Janelle! Please, PLEASE do it! We don't care--honestly!) Meanwhile, Danielle and Erika talked once again about the vote. Erika doesn't care who goes--but would rather see James go because she feels he is coming after her. Danielle says that she can convince James to go after Janelle. Erika isn't so sure. They keep going around and around in circles about who to vote out, and they have yet to make a decision.

James told Mike that if he goes, Danielle will go after CT and not George or Janelle. He also says that the house will be at war--everyone will be gunning for everyone--if James goes. Mike agrees with him that George has been floating thus far and needs to go this week. He says that the vote should be unanimous for George to be evicted.

Erika told Danielle to make a move--said that she voted out Kaysar, and now Danielle needs to get rid of Janelle. Danielle isn't really talking--she is just sitting there taking all of Erika's talk in.

BB called an indoor lockdown. My guess--practicing for tomorrow's HoH competition. They usually do that on Wednesday evening.

8/23 Live Feeds--Morning Report

2006-08-23T15:11:00.000-05:00

Is it the overnight...or the morning? According to my clock, it's the morning, yet the HG are still awake! Geez--go to bed! One day, they will regret it...on to the morning (with some overnight) news from the BB house:

Stuff from late last night: Janelle explained to Will that nobody would talk to CT the first two weeks because they didn't want them to do anything they (S6) were doing. Will talked about having a pre-season alliance with Kaysar. (?? I didn't see any evidence of this!) Janelle also said that it was dumb of Jase to join CT because that made him the biggest target out of the three CT members, and thus getting him evicted. After reading more of the Bible, Janelle went to bed just after 4:00 AM.

Onto this morning: BB issued a wake-up call shortly after 9:00 AM. At the time no HG was up. George was the first HG up at 9:30 AM, along with Erika and Mike. Erika thanked Mike for last night. (Hmm...what exactly did they do?) George and Mike wondered why BB woke them up so early, and maybe they will be voting today.

Mike and Will talked about splitting the money. (Their code word for splitting the money is "banana bread," so when they talk about it, the feeds won't get blocked, and BB won't reprimand them. [They are not allowed to split the money according to their contracts.]) They agreed that they won't make a sure deal about splitting until after this week once they talk to Janelle more.

Will told Janelle that he told Danielle he was coming after Janelle. Janelle says that she told Danielle she was coming after Will. Danielle told both of them that she plans on going after Erika. After talking with Janelle, Will comforts a crying Danielle. She tells him that she is upset because she knows James is going.

Danielle is very upset and is talking of leaving the house to go to sequester. James tells her that he is not going this week and will fight for both of them. Danielle goes along with him. Meanwhile, Will made sure that Erika is going to vote out James. She said yes, especially when Will told her that Danielle and James are alone outside. Erika is convinced they are together to get her (E) out.

The HoH camera arrived about 30 minutes ago, and the HG are still taking pictures with it. As it seems, they did not do voting today. My guess for the early wake-up call is because BB let them sleep in so late yesterday. (Janelle and Will slept past 1:00 PM.) Still look for a James eviction tomorrow.
