Big Brother 16 — Giving Credit Where Credit Is Due

by Lisa Marie Bowman on August 10, 2014

Hi y’all:

Well, let’s give credit where credit is due.  I’m like a lot of people in that, before I saw Sunday’s episode, I naturally assumed that production must have helped Frankie win that Battle of the Block.  And, after having seen Sunday’s episode, I still think that Frankie is clearly the production favorite and it wouldn’t surprise me to find out that he’s as much Alison Grodner’s favorite as both Amanda and Frank were during the two previous seasons.

But, having now seen the Battle of the Block, it’s hard to see how that competition could have been fixed.  Frankie won that by himself and he won it fair and square so I will give Frankie full credit for ensuring his own safety for this week.  Frankie deserved the victory.  If Zach has just calmed down a little and was capable of actually working as a member of a team, he and Donny could probably have won that comp.  But, as usual, Zach was his own worst enemy and now, it looks like Donny is going to have to suffer as a result.

They played for the veto on Saturday and yes, it was the OTEV competition.  (Can Zingbot be far behind?  And is Zingbot actually going to be funny this year or is it going to be usual stuff?  These are question for the future…)  Zach won the veto so he will be coming down off the block and Christine will be nominating a replacement.  As of right now, it appears that Victoria will be the replacement.  And that’s not surprising because Victoria is always the nominee and Christine doesn’t have the guts to break with tradition.  With Christine, we should definitely Expect the Expected.

And, though it will definitely upset a lot of people on twitter and Facebook, Donny will probably be going to the jury house.  I have mixed feelings about Donny.  On the one hand, he does seem to be a really nice person.  He’s likable and he seems to be genuine and that sets him apart from the rest of the house.  But, at the same time, Donny has not been a strong player in the house.  He has not made the alliances that he should have and, far too often, it seems that he’s expected his membership in Team America to keep him safe.  Socially, everyone in the house seems to like Donny but none of them seem to feel that they really know him.  He may be likable but he tends to keep to himself and the strain of constantly being on the block has definitely caused him to withdraw even more from the rest of the house.

Finally, a few thoughts after watching Sunday’s episode:

1) If I never hear the term “dingus” again, I will be happy.

2) Zach is obviously terrified of women.

3) It was enjoyable seeing Frankie actually worried for once.  He usually acts so entitled that it was nice to see him actually realizing that he could be voted just as easily as anyone else in the house.

4) Derrick is still my favorite player, if only because he’s one of the only people actually playing in the house.

5) The whole “Victoria-Sucks-At-Everything” thing is getting old.  At first, the show acted like she wasn’t even in the house.  Now, she’s constantly shown in a way to encourage viewers to ridicule her.  If you’ve watched the LFs recently, you’ve seen some hints that, while Victoria may not be a strong player, she’s still nowhere as close to being as useless as she’s portrayed on the show.  However, those clips will never be shown because it seems like any extra space on the show has been reserved for Frankie.

6) Frankie’s whole “This was for you, Grandpa!” thing was a bit overdone.  Also, how can he claim that he was keeping his sister a secret when, after winning the BoB, he shouted, “That was far you, Ariana Grande!”  I don’t think Frankie was really keeping it a secret as much as I just don’t think that the majority of the house had any idea who Ariana was.

7) And finally, how great was Caleb’s conversation with Frankie?  I’m not a big Caleb fan — and I thought it was a little bit alarming to see him wandering around with a knife in his hand — but good for him for actually doing what he said he was going to do.  That said, if he was really going to throw the competition, he should have grabbed the other chain and kept randomly shaking it.

Anyway — veto meeting is tomorrow!

‘Til Then,

Lisa Marie

LM, as always you are spot on, and I do appesch
at the moment Frankie, Zach and caleb are pushing for nic to be re nom, and derrick is fightin it tooth and nail, why you ask? well, because he knows Donny has his number and knows Donny is good at comps. derrick is sticking up for vic, why you ask? well, because vic is a number for him, plus she is a mole for him, and who knows what else. so this should be interesting, I hope that since Frankie and Christine are tight she will listen to him and put up Donny I know Donny has not played the smartest game, but something in me is really pulling for him. In reality derrick is playing the best game and should win, butttttttttttttttt nah, I am still on donnys bus.
ciao for now

I was really surprised Frankie was able to win that comp by himself, it was kind of funny since they want him gone so bad and really funny it didn’t matter that Caleb didn’t participate, so suck it BEAST MODE. Poor Donny, I’m sure he will go, wheime fotn it should be Victoria. They keep these people in way too long time for Victoria to head to the jury house.

what I was noticing was how tall Frankie looks when standing next to Caleb or Zach, yes I know his hair adds height but I was lookong at their eye levels. Frankie always eppears so dimunitive to me on cam, made me wondering about how tall, short these guys actually are. I notice things like this cuz I am 5’9″ and I live in a big city with a lot of short people, I feel like a tower sometimes lol 😉

Where does everyone get that Donny isnt a good player? It’s this 2 head of house holds that is getting him. He would have to win almost every time some part of the game each week, and he has except this week. Derrick is pulling all the strings. BB is not a fair game this year in my opinion. And Sundays whole show was so edited to be the Frankie show. Made me sick! I cannot help but believe that Frankie had actually played this game before, and production knew it. Hell they probably let him practice before it was a competition.

Great job, Lisa Marie. I’m a long-time reader, but have rarely posted. I appreciate your time & effort. Great point of view.

Do you suppose putting up Nicole is a Team America effort? The assignment, I believe, entailed convincing someone to be a pawn, then voting them out. Now, I haven’t seen anyone suggesting it to Nicole, but I don’t have the live feeds, just watch BBAD. The fulfillment of that TA challenge is Donny’s only hope, I think.

Just a though ….

Watching the last part of BBAD and Nicole is up in the HOH room talking a mile a minute to Christine trying to stay off the block!! Then at the last minute Victoria walks in and they’re all talking about the guys…especially Frankie!!

I don’t think they realize that it’s one of Them going up…I think. At this point who knows what going to happen!! It’s time like this that I wish I had the live feeds!! LOL!!

@Jolee..thanks darling…I love you and Sissy too!! God bless you and y’all have a good night!!

@Star….I laughed out loud when you talked about your mother not driving. It reminded me of my mom( God bless her soul). She didn’t get her license until her twenties(my dad taught her how to drive, but she only liked to take right turns(left turns freaked her out!!LOL!!And as far as driving on the interstate…..forget it…she wasn’t going there!!! God I miss her sooo much!! I’m going to pray that your knee gets better soon!!

@Travis…which alliance are you speaking of….there are so many!! LOL!!

Goodnight all my friends….looking forward to Wednesday’s show but I have a feeling it’s going to be ALL about Frankie and his big reveal!! LOL!! You know..”The CBS Production Show”!! LOL!!!

Not to take anything away from Frankie’s solo win, but I think playing that game would be much easier for one person. With two people it would be very difficult coordinating two brains and two sets of instincts. props to you Frankie for not giving up when Caleb did his sitting bull thing. What Caleb should have done is keep his mouth shut and just sabotaged the game by subtle moves that would counter Frankie’s. Now he might have a huge target on his back for blatantly trying to throw the game…Hmmm…Or was that his plan?

Does anyone know where to find Jeff Schroeder’s exit interviews ? I watched them last year, however, it appears we have to pay to see them this year, is that correct ? Much appreciation for all comments/opinions/updates, & a special thanks to Lisa Marie her time & detailed updates. I noticed there are several “night owls” & folks over 55 on here. I’m a “night owl” too, 60+ yrs. old, retired, have NO “earthly” family whatsoever other than my babies, a bear-coat SharPei & Chow Chow. (My “heart” dog went to the Rainbow Bridge 5 yrs. ago & she was my world). She was a bear-coat SharPei also. Just wanted all the “over-55” BB “vets” to know I’m “over-the-hill” & a night owl also. Usually go to bed about 7:00-8:00a.m. & get up around 2:00-3:00p.m. Daytime TV sucks & I don’t have family or anyone to do things with so I don’t feel like I’m missing anything on my weird schedule. Hope to get to know some of you better & eventually be considered one of the”vets.” There are times I want to reply to certain comments, however, there are so many comments to scroll back through to reference certain comments, so I haven’t. As for BB, I’m sooooo ready for Frankie to go & hope Donny has a chance to step up his game, but with Christine being HOH, who knows what she’ll end up doing ! Derrick & Frankie have an unfair advantage over the others & both are liars/master manipulators. As for TA, Derrick & Frankie haven’t included Donny in on what they’re doing hardly at all & I don’t think that’s fair to Donny. He’s been on the block so many times & has no one to align with, so what else can he do besides try to win POV ? I’m not a Victoria fan, however, at least she, Nicole, & Donny, haven’t bullied/manipulated the others. Cody hasn’t done much other than let Derrick dictate what should happen. I hope Haydn comes back in & turns the house upside down again !! Have a great week everyone !! 🙂

Great recap, LM

I stated on the previous page that Caleb should have sabotaged the comp by playing badly. But no, I don’t give Frankie props for winning–it seemed like it would much easier to solo once the learning curve was established. Frankie was able to move at whichever pace he wanted, didn’t have to worry about communicating with a team mate. Still, Zach and Donny would have won it if Zach hadn’t decided to solo it half way through the game, they lost valuable time with that stunt.

I don’t really care at this point who Christine puts up–as I know it won’t be anybody whose nomination would shake up the house. She’s too much of a chicken for that. So far, the only person who has made big moves has been Nicole and it looks like those moves are going to bite her in the rear either this week or next.

@Annie……My mom actually did get her DL when I was in college. But she was so afraid of driving, that she never did drive alone. She was ok with me but my dad wasn’t used to not being at the wheel and made her nervous!!lol I knew alot of ladies like your Mom!! That made ME laugh!!! Thanks for the prayers. See if you can put a rush on them, will ya??? 😉

Chris was telling Vic how AWFUL Frankie was being on the outing. She said she had never met a bigger DIVA in her life!!! He was telling people to get coffee for him and talking to strangers as if they knew him , cuz after ALL, he IS famous!! He also said he hated everyone in the house!! She said it was emotionally exhausting and a LONG 12 hrs and she was glad to be back. She makes it SOUND Like she hates Frankie, and she gets me to believe her everytime!! So when Nic went up to talk to her about an awful convo she had with Frankie and how she was afraid of him and wanted to make sure Chris had her back, I believed her once again! NOW I hear that she is going to put Nic up?? There is so much lying going on in the house that I seriously don’t think anyone can trust anyone else at this pont! Not even allainces. But don’t get me wrong. I’m LOVING it!!! it’s so much better than the unanimous sheep mentality that we have had all summer!

Right now, Derrick and Cody are going to *lock down* Chris and Vic. They know the girls like them and they want them around to take with them to the end as they still plan on being F2. Nic gets in the way of that!!! They want Donny out next and then Zach. Why not Frankie I don’t know. But things change in this house by the minute !!

Ok…enough BB for me!! My head is spinning!!lol

Peace,love and light!! ♥

If no one thinks Frankie is not playing this game to win be aware he knows exactly when to put things out there and yes he was worried why do you think he still broke down and decided to pull the ace out of the hat and tell them he was cough cough “famous” but that being said Derrick is also playing a very good game and kudo’s to him ~ mostly they forget once they get comfortable it is still just that “a game” and people will lie to their faces and try to manipulate them ~ Derrick told right to someone’s face either Vic or Nic do not trust anyone in this house even him because “IT IS A GAME” no one is going to sneeze at the final 2 money ~ am with whoever said that I do not think Donnie has a very strong social game he might come thru on competitions but he is not trying to make himself socially active and even on the live feeds he has pretty much stayed to himself ~ yes he is likable and those outside are rooting for him because he is not the norm he is older but remember its a game and those that play it well deserve to win ~ for me I want Derrick to take home the grand prize ~ props also to Caleb that he stuck to his guns and sat down and yes he could of been ruder and ruined Frankies chances but he didnt and that I give him kudos to for not ~ one last bit for me that I think Christine mentioned she didnt care who Frankie was famous or not it is still the point everyone in that house is trying for the money for some reason or not ….

Did anyone know Hayden was a star Ice Hockey player from New England? In 2011 he was awarded a Boston Bruins Ice Hockey Sportsmanship Medal.

“The Boston Bruins organization is also proud to announce the 2011 recipients of the Boston Bruins Ice Hockey Sportsmanship Medal. These student-athletes were selected for best exemplifying a commitment to the ideals of sportsmanship throughout the season. These young men and women demonstrated a tremendous commitment to teamwork and exhibited respect both on and off the ice. ”
He’s from Marlboro Massachusetts

I also give kudos to Frankie as that comp was not easy. Zack is impatient and cannot handle stress of any kind. I’m a critical care nurse and Zach could never do a job like that until he gets some kind of stress management training. Donnie wasn’t a good communicative partner either from what BB showed us of the comp. Frankie seems remorseful but mostly because it has ruined his game. He is an expert at being coniving because he shifted into damage control gear easily. Frankie is a phony.

1st Thanks Lisa Marie, because everything you are preaching I am buying. But watching Frankie so much is starting to make my coffee taste really rank in the mornings. 25 years ago I had changed my beliefs and feelings about mixed marriages and gays rights because I’m from the stupid part of the South. I owe it all to my daughter teaching me as long as that person treats you with respect and kindness what matters about skin color. But now comes along a Frankie that just makes me wonder if this is what the Gay and Lesbian community stand for then they are looking for ‘MORE ATTENTION’ than just that they happen to have different sexual preferences. I believe this looks really bad for them and I hope that part of ‘Our’ community does not appreciate what he is portraying on Big Brother. And that’s on CBS for doing this because they knew what we would get and from what I am reading it’s not being received very well. Sure, Frankie already set to win Fan Favorite, ( not fair). How do you think he was picked to be one if TEAM AMERICA, to already be winning $$$ before even getting to any competitions. Enough of Frankie Time: just wanted to express my thoughts. And J Renee’ our stories sound very similar with our pets. They are truly like family, I just had to put one down and it’s awful. She let a tear fall on my hand the Morning I was holding her. My Best Friend! And another thing is I consider everyone on this Blog as Really good friends. A lot of you might not realize it but there is quiet a few people on here that are up here in age and we use this blog daily and look forward to reading others comments and feeling connected. Some are disabled, some homebound, you just don’t know what a simple conversation with someone means everyday and in that I say Thank You LISA MARIE FOR YOUR TIRELESS AND NEVERENDING WORK IN KEEPING US INFORMED ABOUT THE SHOWS WE ALL LOVE SO MUCH!
Jeanne & Sissy Jolee@ being 81 years YOUNG – would have never ever have guessed and what a pleasure to read yalls wisdom. If I still lived in Sun City by March Air Force Base, I’d take you to lunch. Was watching season 1 and so weird, I believe they only had 10 players! And then another season what about the hidden bedroom found with the clues under the compass written backwards that had 2 full beds in it! Wonder if it is still in the walls. So cool to go back and watch Howie and Janell in the beginning. And what about the Hot Tub that had a locked cover on it and had to find the hidden key to uncover it. Guess where it was? As much as I respect Donny I think it’s time for him to enjoy the rest if his summer and go to the Jury House because I don’t think he has a chance of getting to the end with no other close person with him. At least there is hope that Hayden can come back, but that might have to happen before Frankie gets there because if it’s America Voting again, Frankie will get voted back into house! 🙁

Donny is so frustrating and I’m over him. He flat out refused to work with anyone from the get go, except TA and that’s disappointing. Of course his career as a grounds keeper helped forge that trait, because they spend all of their time mowing, hedge trimming, etc… and they really never work within the team environment.

Donnie= Useless as far as the game goes
Derrick= Game master
Cody, Christine, Frankie= Minions
Nicole= late bloomer, but too late to amount to anything
Victoria= Forever a pawn and disposable
Caleb, Zach= This years basket cases and are just around for entertainment. The King’s Fools.

OK lets get this straight. Frankie rides on the coat tails of his sister. He would be nothing without her. He cannot stand the fact that his sister is famous. I had never heard of him until this show. He has lied to the house about # of followers. Matter of fact, many of the followers he has on YT, fb and instagram are the same people. So the actual number of unique followers are no where near what he has said. Anyone that might be following may ‘unfollow’ him when they find out what he is really like.His ‘gay’ characteristics are merely for attention. His kissing and hugging are way over the top and not genuine.

And saying that he is sending the winnings to Africa. Like c’mon. After tax whatever he has left he will keep a portion of it. By saying he will donate proves to the others that the does not need the money for himself. The others need the money.

Well as you can read I am not a fan of Frankie. And the way he has carried himself is very damaging to his image. He is disgusting self centered person and needs to be voted out ASAP.

I absolutely can’t stand the double hoh, so unfair the way it’s set up. It’s set up so the ones not winning actually have a better chance of winning. If Donny had been able to play when there was only one hoh he would be in a better position. He doesn’t have the training derrick has; I mean really a undercover cop is highly trained in manipulating a whole gang in order to get information; a ground keeper is to themselves a lot. I love Donny and even with just the styphen he will be getting he will still come out financially better. But im sure if given the choice he wishes he had now stayed home and enjoyed the summer. I like his social game a lot more than. …..well I refuse to say his foolish egotistical name ever again.

well speakig of ages I will be 55 in 3 weeks. I work 35 hours or less a week as a telephone operator and plan to keep at that job until I am at leaast 65. With all the talking I do on the phones every day I am not much of a chatty cathy off hours but ever since 1995 I have hung around one discussion board or another. This year I am hoping to check out the Survivour blogs. It will be different because at least with BBAD there is something BB new everyday to chat about, whereas with Survivour it is just once a week so you cant talk game every day and might end up talking about jam, jelly, Bachelors, hockey, football, The Leftovers, pets and the joys of growing old 😉 I get really reclusive during winter months, so we will see.

bobbi @ 19 it was Nic, Iwas watching the wheels in her head spinning and I wanted to scream at the screen “He is staring at you right in the face and he is TELLING you!!! so put him on the block already!!!” lol

junksies @ 18. .. I highly doubt that your posts are being removed. Are you sure that after you hit Submit that you actually sit there and wait to see that your post gets put up before you move on? Sometimes it can seem like a long time, maybe up to a minute before the post goes from ‘freeze frame’ to actually being posted. You need to sit there and wait, make sure your post got posted before moving from the page. I always sit to read it after I post to moan & groan at any errors I may have made 😉

I was thinking about the power Donny has on so many. I agree that he is a likable man but then again, I think the entire cast is the most generally sound, well balanced and good natured group ever. They don’t spend their days demeaning others (season 12-Britney & Ragan went overboard making fun of Rachel). They don’t act like animals playing each other (season 9- Matt took advantage of poor Natalie – even I’m still traumatized!). They don’t live their days counting down the moments until their next cigarette or argue over how many ounces of wine/beer another HG had (most seasons) and they don’t make racial slurs (season 15- who can forget Aaryn). You could go on and on-part of the reason we all watch, admittedly!

My point is that we have a normal group of players who all came in with different personalities & skill sets. And yet “nice” is the best we have? Sorry, I haven’t seen Donny play hard. I have seen Derrick, even Zach put effort into game play. Basically, it’s a combination of things that win this game & luck prevails. Cathy was right (line 9) in that there is a disadvantage with 2 HOH. Also, as foolish as it seemed originally, the alliance of 8, turned out to be a major advantage because of the double HOH. It cost Brittney a chance & that girl had enough heart, drive & game play to maybe have won this game. Just because Derrick came in with a “particular set of skills” is no reason to denounce his play. Think how boring the game would be if everyone were middle class, white, kindergarten teachers with equivalent 1040s. Just saying….

Coffee and Rice Krispie treats what a breakfast. Now back to BB. I am so over Frankie. I have never seen him once just sit and relax and have a meaningful conversation. He reminds me of a male Tinkerbell, except not so cute. Or a June bug fliting and flyting (spell check please) all over the place. Always looking for the camera. Now on to the important stuff. I am also a chronic night owl. Years of owning a bakery. We would finish around 4am. Then it took a few hours to relax enough to get to sleep. About 10 years ago I had chemotherapy and couldn’t sleep. I would be up all night on line playing Bingo. I met so many wonderful people going through the same thing. In fact some of them are my FB friend’s to this day. On the subject of mothers driving. My mother did not drive. But one day when we were about 9 years old, ( we always walked to school) it was raining really hard, my dear Mother decides she’s going to drive us. Hmmmm Well without boring you with the details I will say it was a day I will never forget. Happy blogging everyone. God bless you. {{{HUGS}}}

Thanks LM, as usual, great post. I believe production plays a big part in what they “want” the viewers to see. They purposely distort our viewing to keep the show interesting and popular so, unless, you come to this blog, watch BBAD, have LFs, etc. you don’t get the real picture.

I just don’t have a favorite this year but I’m disappointed in Donny as he doesn’t play the game at all IMO. He really shouldn’t be there if he can’t do anything more than win a few comps. He may have figured out Derrick is the puppet master but will he do anything, anything at all, about it? However, he is a good shoulder to cry on when you’re having a bad day. 🙂 Zach is a PITA and he’s mean spirited as I’ve said before. Christine is the most unlikeable in the house IMO. Frankie is so full of himself it turns my stomach. I would love to see Hayden come back in the house but they have to take the head of the snake off and that’s Derrick. Or get his minions out but he’s playing a great game right now and he knows how to get someone on his side.

I know you all agree that production should stop putting anyone on the show who already has a fan base. Just not right at all!

I’m so thankful to all who post and give us updates. I read them and enjoy but don’t have the time to post very much.

Shout out to everyone, all Vets, any newbies and, of course, a special shout out to Bob!
Have a great day!

I was thinking about the comments people have made about where CBS gets its players. What they should do is have a season of players that have strictly applied only and that do not have ANY previous ‘entertainment’ experience. Just regular Jack and Jills from anytown or hamlet. A mixed bag across the board. Get back to the original premise of the show, an era later.

Then, do a mini recruit only version. Show us what you want us to see. Isnt that called Celebrity Apprentice? 😉

Loved reading everone’s input, looking forward to reading more. I still havent watched BBAD from last night, I am sure I will have something to say, later folks.

I wish Caleb had stepped up to the plate and really thrown the challenge. What an idiot!! Things are not looking good for Nicole. I do hope Christine will put up Victoria instead. It would be great to see no floaters making it to the end. Christine can’t stop ragging on Frankie to Victoria and Nicole, but I think this is all an act. I have to laugh at Zach, as I have no idea what he is doing, all I can say is whatever his brain is telling him to do seems to be working!! 😆 I really like Zach and hope he makes it to the final two.

@Randall: Most homosexuals don’t behave as outrageously as Frankie. I know a lot of gay men–friends, ex-husband’s brother, my son… I can think of only one who is at all flamboyant. Most of them, you wouldn’t know were gay unless they told you (or you saw them with their significant others). Most of them are “manly men”; they like sports, like to work on cars, build things, etc. Unfortunately, year after year, BB gives us a token gay person who is “out there”, giving the community a bad name. I mentioned on a previous page that my son asked me why there always has to be a queen on BB. I told him to apply for the show and let America know what most gay men are about.

There are 4 people I would love to see go BEFORE Donny – Frankie & his boyfriend Zack let them do whatever they want in jury. Christine & Victoria. I don’t like any of them as far as Ariana I had never heard of her until Frankie said her name. Then I seen her Macy’s 4th of July and to me in only my opinion (oh yeah my husband seen her too) So in OUR opinion she has no talent. From what I can find out she is some what a Miley Cyrus (yes Cyrus has a famous dad but other than that) She had a show on Disney and when she turned 21 wanted to get away from that and go on her own. But when she sang that night I got 30 seconds in and had to mute it I was getting a SERIOUS headache from listening to her just as much as Frankie gives me one when he is on camera thank god I don’t have the live feeds this year or I would have cancelled them.

Sometimes it is easier to win a competition when you don’t have to rely on being in sync with someone else. It should have been obvious once seen that it would be better to play and mess up (because then Frankie couldn’t have gotten lucky). But Caleb is not the top shelf shine from the still and can’t think for himself. I would have died laughing if BB would have only said, “yes you are off the block but because you did not participate you don’t qualify for the reward”. No football excursion for you beast mode cow pie!

about the comp last night I think it’s easier to play alone so it was unfair but since Allison like Frankie the rules were bent….

Sylvie, typos don’t count on this blog. I worked in word processing for over 25 years and I find typos in my blogs all the time! I think the main reason for most of our typos is when typing from a Kindle Fire (like me) or from a Smart Phone, etc… the dang thing changes the word. I don’t always proofread my blogs! For example, when I write to my niece, Cappie, it changes it to Crappie! Not good! Even when I sign my name on e-mail from my Kindle, when I write “Jo” it either changes it to “No” or “Ho.” Really not good!! 🙂

I don’t know if anyone noticed in Parade magazine in the Sunday paper, that Ariana Grande was featured in their “Personalities” page. I’ve heard her sing and she’s got a four octave range according to the article. I don’t like Frankie because of his drama queen behavior but that’s not indicative of gays or lesbians at all. Every group has it’s odd balls and he’s definitely a drama odd ball who behaves like Tinkerbell. Love that!!

He needs to be gone . he is the biggest liar there , will stab everyone if he gets the chance. Nicole is the only player to challenge the men and take a stand. Hope she is safe this week and wins HOH and gets rid of the weasel next week.

Starfish I so agree, Christine is a real dirt bag! Poor Nicole has been crying most of the day and it seems everyone is shunning her. Christine said she was afraid Nicole would call her out again after the eviction vote, but good old Derrick was there to console her saying ‘Everyone knows Nicole lies”!! I like Derrick, but he is getting on my nerves with all his lies.

I would love to see Donny win the next HOH and put up Derrick and Cody, then if the veto is used, he could put Frankie up as the replacement nominee. I would bet donuts to dollars no one would use it (other than Derrick and Cody on themselves) for fear of being the replacement! This would really shake up the house and could turn the Detonators against one another. Donny knows he is a lame duck, so he would have nothing to lose. He could walk out of the house in a blaze of glory if he could at least send one of them to the jury house before they evict him.

I am still halfway through BBAD, trying to get a whole buncha other things done before going back to work tomorrow. Yeah Betty I was watching him, he was really trying to get one of them to jump up and take over, the way he looked at Vic. .. wow. I got to wondering why she didnt, then I remembered, she is on slop, why should she offer if she cant partake.

So I wanred to hear who was put up as Nom and I am reading that it is Nic. I suspected as much. She will probably go out too, unless Chris can change things by Thurs.

If Nicole goes, and the returning evictee is voted by America, and if the actaul vote is used and not who production chooses to send back in, I think that it would be Nicole that returns.

But they might have the evictees do a comp amongst themselves. Not sure if they have done that before.

Back to BBAD.

Right you are Randall, BB is so predictable and Wednesday show will show no surprises. Things won’t get any better till Donny and Christine are gone and we see the Detonators battling it out. Cody is now so dull and seems to be riding on the coattails of Derrick. He has now become the biggest floater in the house. Christine is killing herself game-wise and is at the mercy of the guys. I can’t believe she doesn’t see the forest through the trees! She is so worried America will hate her now for nominating Nicole…at least she got one thing right, as we all do!! 😆

BC – I don’t think Christine will fight to keep Nicole. I think she would be afraid to try for fear of retaliation from her alliance. (I don’t have the LF’s so I could be wrong).

Tendr, I appreciate your post. I can empathize with people who suffer from depression. The difference between sympathy and empathy: sympathy is when you feel bad for someone going through a trial….empathy is knowing what they are going through because you have been there! God bless Robin Williams’ family.

Betty, yes, I am in Vancouver. It has been a very warm summer, but very limited humidty, thank goodness.

So sorry to hear about Robin Williams. He was such a huge impact on our entertainment for so many decades. Suicide runs in my family. What an awful choice to make. May his soul rest in peace.

C’est… of course I know ‘ass kissing’ is two words. I could just not say it fast enough putting in a space. Please tell your little echo Starfish to chill out and not choke on her LOL’s. So, who are you liking this season? And, please tell our dear Betty to get here sayings in order if she is going to insist on using them.

Well, while watching BBAD I got to wondering where the expression “throw under the bus” came from. I know I had wondered about this before so I decided to look it up. There doesnt sem to be a definitive answer, but this is part of what I found

Ted- Derrick has been in total control of the house since day one. He’s been trustworthy in all things or so he would have his followers believe. He’s loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous and kind as needed to deceive even the one or two house guests with a functioning brain. He’s learned obedience and practices cheerfulness and thrift as he directs his stooges to do all his dirty work . He’s be brave, clean and reverent with his eye always on the prize 24/7. Above all, he keeps himself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight in accordance with the guidelines in the how to stay alive undercover cop handbook. And always “Be Prepared” at all times to do his duty to Himself and Team America if and when possible, and to do a Good Turn to someone every week as he aims them for the exit.

C’est, it sounds like you were describing a Marine! My husband was a Marine and had most of these attributes! 🙂 Once a Marine – always a Marine! He worked for the Post Office for over 15 years and he even walked his route like a Marine! 🙂

I just watched Sunday night and saw all the drama. Frankie is a self indulgent snake. There’s more to this than what we see. Frankie’s winning was definitely manipulated. If they wanted the competition thrown by Caleb then, when Caleb saw Frankie was winning, why didn’t he get up to actually play and make Frankie lose?-would have been easy to do in that comp. Why didn’t all the other house guests who were in on trying to get Frankie to stay on the block tell Caleb to get up and help Frankie lose? It wasn’t a secret anymore after the Frankiedrama telling Caleb “look into my eyes…I know you’re going to throw this”. It all looked pretty staged to me. And then on the feeds I’m watching Frankie with his grand announcement about who he is and what he does: he’s rather filled with self exaltation if you ask me.

Just heard about Robin Williams on Chris Hayes’ show. So sad. I’ve been crying for him for an hour.

I can imagine how bad his depression had been, I have bipolar disorder and have contemplated suicide myself.

I feel like I lost a part of myself. I’ve been a fan of Robin Williams since his appearance on Happy Days. (There I’ve dated myself lol).

i thought on Sunday night BB Caleb looked like something was wrong mentally and physically, he lost a lot of weight and he had a doped up look, I don’t know but he looked mental to me.

I have had it with Frankie ewwww he creeps me out

betcha Derrick and Cody slides right in the winning chairs, been seeing that first off.
Derrick is running everything.

to bad for Nicole and Donny I always pull for the under dog, it doesn’t look good.

I like Zach let him tell it like it really is, at least he loves his little brother and mom.

I read somewhere somebody was having knee problem’s ~~~~~ I have 2 brand new knees had them done at the same time ( I am 51 years old ) it was easy, they hurt so bad before the surgery ~ how bad could new ones be ) well I never took any pain pill at all and they are nice and strong, I have the titium knees now I don’t just fall down like I had rubber bands for legs, I would blop fall down no warning, creepy I know but I love my legs. they are worth the 100,000 even more to me.

ok, I had to run my head off nice to see some newbies, so hello to everyone and goodnight.

Jolie, Dead Poets Society, Good Morning Vietnam, Mrs. Doubtfire . It’s a toss up which one is my favorite. Williams proved in Aladdin that he was great in animation, too bad he didn’t more of them. The one movie that was difficult to watch was One Hour Photo. IMHO, Robin Williams was the funniest man on the planet and that movie was just to dark, humorless; good work though. One Hour Photo proved Williams was much more than a funny man, but difficult to watch.

erie, I didn’t see Good Morning Vietnam or One Hour Photo. I will rent Good Morning Vietnam. My sissy and I rarely go to movies. I like to watch DVD ‘s or recorded movies so I can fast forward through what I don’t care to see! 🙂

50 – a nice round number at which to pause reading.

RIP Robin Williams. He was absolutely the best at improve comedy. If you have not seen his interview by James Lipton on “The Actors Studio”, you missed a lot. He had someone in the audience laughing so much she passed out and the paramedics had to minister to her. They edited that portion out of course, but Lipton announced it on a subsequent show. I will miss you Robin
