Morning all. Well, at least Day is interacting with people now. I bet she wants to kill herself though as Nat and talk about men and faithfulness, and dating and how immature younger guys are. LOL I know she is suspicious, but keeps talking herself out of being suspicious. I wish one of the girls that say they want to keep her would tell her that the plan is to vote her out. They all know it.

I just can't with Paul, I'm sorry. I literally run from the feeds he is on. I peeked really quickly and he and Paulie were talking about Kangaroos and other deadly animals in Australia. Good, no game I do not have to listen. I was ready to take one for the BBU team, but I lucked out.

[JeanK]

Other then Da' making the quick rounds to ask for votes, has the shunning begun? Looks like it.

[herms is here]

I don't get the shunning of the person that is going at all. What's the point of making their last couple of days in the house awful, to the point that they will be glad to get out of there.

[KeninVA]

Day spent a few hours talking to Nat, Z, and Michelle. No one is shunning her.

[Delvoire]

The shunning may be an involuntary act as well. With people knowing the writing is on the wall and that person is leaving, they just move on to talk to people where it will have an impact on the game moving forward. Normally there are some nicer people in the house to help make it not as wide spread, this year definitely seems to be different.

[JeanK]

Isn't Michelle a nutritionist? Why is she eating like that? Then stuff herself with fiber pills. Has anyone seen the nutritionist cook anything?

[Border57]

Michelle doesn't know much about nutrition. The other week she was talking about how real eggs weren't good for you.

[Delvoire]

Border57 depends on the person. Eggs are high in cholesterol, so for some they could be bad. I believe most of that is found in the yoke though, which is why egg whites are the "it" thing to eat.

[OutOfTheDarkness]

Delvoire. That is no longer TRUE. late last year new studies came out that state eggs are not to be avoided for heart/cholesterol reasons, but actually eaten to help those two things. My cardio dr , one of the best in the world, recommends now to eat eggs.

[JeanK]

And another thing.
Dear CBS, please give us super fans next year. No more recruits. Also, how about ages 25 to 40 and no more of this setting up for showmance on purpose.

[Delvoire]

But Big Meech is a super fan!

[JeanK]

From what I read there were 2 fans, 4 vets and 10 recruits.

[beckyd30]

I really need to apply to be on this show, but being a few years over 40 most likely wouldn't get on. That and I don't need to take daily meds to stabilize my moods would probably knock me out of the running.

[Luanne]

Good morning all- Have not been able to watch the feeds. Thanks to all of you for letting me know what is going on. I am glad I was not watching. Having raised two wonderful young men, I would be very embarrassed if my sons acted like these guys.

I think James wants Da to stay over Bridgette, but do not think he will try to rally the votes for her. Zak will vote the way Paulie votes. Not sure who will stay loyal and give Da a vote. I hope she has the round trip ticket. Not a lot of good, that will do us. I do not think she will win the HOH, she is not very good at comps. Maybe it will be another endurance one and she could win. She has no one to blame but herself. She was in a very good spot. One of 8, one of 5 women, one of 5 couple. If she had just waited before stirring up trouble, she would have been ok. She had to start right way.

[belle1]

James has approached Paul several times to question the rationale for Da's boot. Unfortunately Paulie has more influence. In the moment Paulie says will get rid of Bridgette next week, then within minutes will say let's see what she will do for us before we boot her.

He did tell Michele he wanted to talk game with her last night. Then Michele announced this in front of Nic and Corey. I don't think James followed up with Michele and doubts that he will given her announcement. From his view, it is not prudent to rally votes for Da and risk his safety. James knows the votes are not there to save Da.

[KeninVA]

A 4 to 4 tie that Paul has to break would be disaster for Nat and James. In a 4 to 4 split, Paul will evict Da. Lets even assume Day comes back in. In that scenario the house is split:

Paulie, Vic, Paul, Corey, Nic, Bridgette vs. James, Z, Michelle, Nat, Da. Looking at a house divided like that, which side do you think will control the HoH's, and who would be the likely first 2 targets of the 5. James and Michelle would be booted at the boys first opportunity to hold HoH, and James would be out well before Da, in that scenario. It's not like James did not set Da up. He was the one to put her on Paulie's radar, and inadvertently re-enforced Tiffany's warning about the Fatal 5.

[Pammer]

belle1, well since you put it that way, now I see the bigger picture. Sometimes I let heart rule over logic.

[belle1]

Palmer I hear you about letting your hear rule. That is me also. I just happen to be a big James fan so am fully invested in his game. I don't like the people he is playing with now very much but that is his alliance. When first started it was him, Paulie, and Corey. This was pre jerk Paulie.

[DanCuy]

Paulie has started to implement his plan to set up Z and Mich to vote for Da to stay so he can have justification for putting them up next week. Hopefully, this will back fire and cause a tie. It all depends on James and Nat talking about what she really wants to happen. Nat has been going back and forth on who she wants out. First she tells Brig that she has her vote to stay. She tells James that it is better for her game if Brig stays. James says that settles it, Da's going. Then she tells Da, in front of Z and Mich, that she is voting for Da to stay. If she finally makes her mind to keep Da and lets James know we have a tie. Then Paul will be forced to either vote Da out and show himself as a liar after going around all week telling everyone Brig has to go or go against his bros and vote out Brig.

[Pammer]

I just have a few random thoughts/questions....i wonder if Paulie has gone more than a day without mentioning Cody and Derrick? I wonder if Nicole can have a conversation without saying that's hilarious? I wonder if any of the inmates will get any blowback regarding things that they've said in the house? And, last but NOT least, do any of them really think that they will be super-celebrities in the real world? One more thing, why is the Paris room still open?

[Border57]

Here's my wish for Thursday: Da is evicted and comes right back in the door, then wins HOH. And have people ' interviewed' by the HOH one by one before being put up. And NO discussion about do you want to be a pawn, just put them up and tell them afterwards. Jeez Louise! It's really boring to sit there and watch that crap go on. I want to see someone playing the game besides Paul and Paulie. And that isn't much game with that crowd because they are worse than sheep. Oh, and I want Zakiyah wiped off the game. She's ridiculous, does she think this one of those dating shows? Her mother was the one who watched the show; would have been a lot better with her on there, I'll bet.

There. I feel better.

[~smee~]

::sigh:: As much as I don't like where this season is heading, I still don't want TPTB messing with the game. Don't want them talking anyone into anything in the Diary Room. Don't want them manipulating who gets the round-trip ticket. Don't want them making up blatant twists to "save" anyone. Don't want them having any control over who stays and who goes. Just let the game play out. I don't like seeing Paulie playing a very pale imitation of Derrick, but the others are fool enough to let it happen, so...

I do wish they would give them more games or things to play with beyond pool and chess, so they could maybe be more entertaining. Not many of them this year seem to be creative enough to come up with any entertainment beyond bashing each other.

[llongori]

Pammer Big Brother is not a game show. It is a reality show which does not have to follow the same rules.

[AmyBeth]

I'm not sure that the laws about rigging game shows would apply here. The basic premise of "big brother" (in the outside world) is always watching and manipulating things. But I would like to see more hidden things that the inmates could figure out to their advantage. Make it more of a puzzle to win versus a popularity contest. I like how people in this forum put everything together and come up with things- like the Ocho Rios leading to the idea that #8 has the return trip.

[Walleye]

We get this question every season. BB is considered an entertainment show, not a game show. Different rules apply.

[belle1]

So Corey is talking to LFers around 9:20 BBT. His F4 is Paulie, Nic and James. If F3 is him, Paulie and Nic, says he would throw last competition because would not be able to chose between Nic and Paulie. Speculates that James and Paul have good chance to be F2, others in house have also said this. Says James gets upset to hear this because it puts target on his back. Corey says he will do what he can to protect James and Paulie.

[cutencuddly]

OMG ... he'll take at most $50 K because he can't choose between Paulie and Nic?

Wow ... he's even more of a Cody than Cody was.


(but it makes him kinda attractive as friend material)

[belle1]

He was actually likable during his talk.

[KeninVA]

This season is shaping up to be Season 14 without the characters to root for, or the unintended humor/drama around Dan trying to get Ian booted before arriving at F4, with Ian booting all of Dan's potential F2 goats along the way. Without some surprise comp run by Natalie or Michelle, the boys are going to maintain safety for themselves all the way down the line. Corey wants a Paulie/Nic/James/Corey F4. Victor wants a Paulie/Paul/Bridgette/Victor F4, Paul wants a Paulie/Paul/Victor/Girl final 4. Paulie wants a Corey/Paul/Z final 4. The common denominator is everyone wants Paulie, the biggest comp threat in the house, at F4, which will give him two shots at making himself safe. Maybe James wakes up, but I bet he will be fine with riding to F4. I bet his boot lists are girls/Victor, Paul, leaving Corey and Paulie until the end game. And with the line up in the house, all the comp threats appear to be on the boys side.

A lopsided run would be O.K. with me, if the people in the house were more watchable, but after 5 minutes of watching yesterday, I find I have to turn it off. They are all too unpleasant to watch. Especially Paul, who just grates on my nerves.

[belle1]

This group is definitely not a fun group. No one interest in the silly home made games. Paulie talks game 95% of his waking hours. James pranks are not appreciated. The favorite past time is foul language and mean spiritedness.

When I turn feeds on I look for Nat and or James or someone talking to LFers. If not on camera then I am out for the most part

[OutOfTheDarkness]

I have to say that's while this is the worst cast EVER, we can't go without saying that production has gotten worse as well. Yes the comps are better, but they used to force the HGs to get up by 10am & be active during the day. Now they let them sleep until 4pm BBT and they all for the most part stay up to 6 am. 1st shift of production is greatly dropping the ball. Also instead of all of the call outs to not talk about production etc; they give us fish or put the cams on boring or sleeping HGs. That's lazy & makes for boring feeds no one wants to pay for. They have A LOT to fix before another season of BB. Cause if it continues to get worse along with the bad casting, people will just stop watching.

[nonobadfish]

Stopping by (now that the CBS All Access BB19 is official for this fall) to say MAYBE we can have a better BB19 cast that doesn't sit around all day talking crassly about boys or girls instead of playing the game. #Hope

Also holding out hope that Davonne has the return ticket, comes back in and wins HoH, nominates Paulie and Paul with Corey or Nicole as renom. I don't care if she leaves again the next week....I'd just like someone/anyone to shake up these peeps. (Yes, I know Da doesn't stand much chance of winning HoH comp, but a girl can dream).

[HunnyBunny]

That is my hope as well. I am not a fan of Day's, but I want a shake up. Other than James and Nat I don't really like any of this cast. Can. Not. Stand. Paulie. You can go down the list of remaining players from there. Hoping for the 19 cast and show to be a big improvement.

[belle1]

I am on board for this to happen. Mo Drama Mamas

[misscmm]

Also no hanky-panky. Oh, and no showmance's. Oh, and no Paulie, Paul, Victor, Nic .. oh, sorry, I digress. No, boring, self absorbed, mean spirited, foul mouthed, ego maniacs. Oh wait, I go back to my 3rd Oh, no ...
