Good Morning, Everyone! The finale is tomorrow!

[Blacxicana]

Isn't it ironic that Steve & Liz are in the house with a top-notch world-class pro poker player and a deck of cards - yet they only want to learn how to play Gin Rummy?! Liz probably wont care much, but Steve will probably kick himself once he realizes that he could have had free poker lessons from a world-renowned poker champion!

And us toooooo😒Darn it! I hate Steve and Liz

[MrsVee]

KennyERJ, sorry but I just read your Question today , you asked me the other day who I thought was the best BB winner, I really didn't have one until now. It's Vanessa ( I know she hasn't won yet ,, but she will ! ) she impressed me all throughout this game, and was good in comps . Really surprised me in the physical ones! Hope for a girl to win this year. Dr. Will was entertaining, Dan&Derrik were very good . I can tell you that the ones I hated were Boogie., and Maggie.... ick, 😖😖😖

One more day until we all go into withdrawal mode. It has been fun, as always. I am looking forward to seeing Part 2 of the HOH, the evictees, the jury round table, and the jury questions. I am nervously awaiting Part 3 HOH.

Y'all know who I want to win. Beyond that, I would really love to see Steve walk out holding his teddy.

[Lexie]

Let me just start off by saying that many of you know, that we've been at this going on 15 years now. If you're new and you didn't know. We really have been doing this since Season 2. That's a long time. My own children have grown up knowing that this website is a part of their lives. My summers have always revolved around what's happening on Big Brother, but more importantly what's happening here at Big Brother Updates. I hope I've served you well.

I am not alone in that. Rob, Kenny, Sdkgeo, Purrwing, Linden, Kitty and BBFanShan's families can probably relate. We are nothing if not dedicated to all of you.

As this season ends, it's a emotional time for me. I can't express in words how much all of you, long time members, new members we've come to know, mean to us.

Last season, as a few of you know, we were in deep trouble, not only did we have to face the hard fact that a change had to be made with the website, the live feed sales that we try to rely on for funding the off-season expenses, weren't enough to pay the monthly expense that it takes to keep this website up, let alone more forward with the update. We were in a pickle! I really thought it was going to be the end of BBU.

Thankfully, a few devoted BBU members stepped up and helped provide the funding that was needed to get us up and going. You know who you are : )

This season, I hope, that we've been able to provide you with what you came here for. I hope that you enjoyed this new website. I hope that you enjoyed each other. The moderators here are top-notch, I can't say enough about them to do them justice.

So, here we are...

Season ending, and it's emotional, it's bittersweet, it's all those mixed up feeling between yes, we completed another season and then the fear of , the worry of - - facing that question that we face season after season - - will we be able to survive" to be here for the next Big Brother?

Why do we have to face that every season, you ask?

The most predominate reason is - we're a unique website. We're here all year long, but the bulk of our traffic is only for the 3 months that Big Brother airs. As the season draws to an end, so does the traffic. We push the live feeds sales during the season to help try to get a little bit of padding for expenses during the "off -season". As the case as been during the past several seasons,we've had minimum live feed sales this time around.

This year was different in another way, as well.

Early on the cast just wasn't peaking your interest, it was hard for the majority of you to get a good feel for the season, hard to find someone to root for and because of that. Those circumstances, have a domino effect on participation and therefore in donations. We truly understand.

But, we have to look at the road ahead, to look towards not only surviving over the next few months, but to the real truth about being able to be here for Season 18 of Big Brother. And to be truthful, we are a bit worried.

We don't want to be in that " what are we going to do spot" that we found ourselves in during the off-season last year, we want start now and reach out to all of you, new members especially, and as you, if you enjoyed your time here and you'd like to do it all again in June for Season 18, please consider making a donation to help us be able to continue on now and to stay strong during the off -season.

We hope you'll continue to enjoy your time here. We're here for Survivor, The Amazing Race and pretty much any other television show you'd like to start a topic about. There will be Episode Discussion threads each week for both Survivor and The Amazing Race, play along in the Survivor and TAR Fantasy games and keep up with each other in any of the off-topic fun discussions that you can enjoy all year long.

Every donation matters and we thank you for any support you can give to help us now and throughout the off-season.

❤️ Lexie

Just made a day early. Have enjoyed this BB season, especially since I was able to join in with BBU this year.

[Livzee]

Donation made, gratefully. I sure will miss the everyday discussions, updates and people, but I'll be checking in all winter. And to the serious gameplay aficionados, I love that I can say I hope Vanessa goes at Steve's hand or better still, that he takes her and wins. I just can't root for her because she's unlikeable. I know. I know.... but I can dream.

[KennyERJ]

Thanks Livzee!

[Melisandra]

Donation made! Thanks Lexie and all others!

Thanks Melisandra!

Hey all,

This season was the least amount of time I've spent on BBU in years. I had the feeds as usual but probably only watched a total of 3 hours. It's been a busy summer. Having unexpected surgery with a 3 month recovery really slowed me down. In addition to all that, I have a novel being released on December 5th that I had to prepare for. (Look out for it everyone. It's called "Pocketbook Diaries")

I throughly enjoyed this season. I was sad to see James go, but continued to be entertained, I'm hoping Steve pulls off that win tomorrow and takes Liz to the end. However, this may surprise everyone.... I'm hoping he then loses to Liz. 😈 I have had a grudge against Steve since he crippled James' alliance by getting Jackie evicted during his HoH. So, that's what will make me smile tomorrow. Can't wait to see the outcome of this season.

[cutencuddly]

Way cool on the novel, Rainey!



And I'm with you on a Liz upset for Steve!

[MrsVee]

Rainey,Glad your feeling better😊 Looking forward to reading your novel ! Congrats to you!

[TTOTambz2]

Congratulations on your novel Rainey, what is it about?

[PipelinersWife]

I think they should have jury feeds the last few weeks. It is always so boring when it gets down to the end. I don't know why they drag the last week out. They should crown a winner instead of look back show. Then keep everyone in the house, bring back everyone, for a few days watching and reading, listening to ones that were at home, etc. Then give us a ''reunion'' type show. That's one thing when it's all over that I'm curious about, just what everyone thinks.

[beckyd30]

That would be so awesome, wonder how much 'Judas' is pushing for a Vanessa loss. You know if she did lose against Steve or Liz, Smelly Austin would say it was his doing.

[PipelinersWife]

Yes the poor thing will get out and believe the polls were all wrong. He will think he's still the favorite.

[Tina182]

its sooo quiet in these parts - have there been any leaks yets of the roundtable with Dan, Dr Will, and Derrick ?? (wondering if its true)

[beckyd30]

Seems that everything, including the boards here slow down, since all the HGs are doing nowadays is sleeping and/or eating.

[PipelinersWife]

Yes it's been slow. Everyone going back to their normal lives from BB summer break. This time of year usually means Fall but I sure can't tell here in TX, lol.

[Tina182]

CBS posted a video of BB jury charades - that was something new to watch lol ...and the mashup from yesterday.

[cutencuddly]

Same question. I tried to find it on the CBS site and didn't see it.

[SlowPoke]

I found it by accident by typing in a search on the CBS website "BB17 Jury". Austin was nowhere to be seen on the short video. Probably sulking somewhere.

[slyone]

Three's a 2nd one up now. Both are on the CBS BB site, Video page under Bonus Clips. The end of the newer one is hilarious. Just think James and sit back.

[cutencuddly]

Steve is _still_ hung-up on Jason.

[cutencuddly]

And *ack*.

Liz appears to think that her and Austin getting around to hanky panky more quickly than Clay and Shelli made Liztin more interesting than Clelli.




Poor girl. The glare is not gonna be kind to her tomorrow.
