Big Brother 16 — The Frankie Show

Number one

Know I am really up to date 😆

Nice write up LM. I am starting to really hate this season, as my expectations all seem to have crumbled, especially now that Zach will probably be the one leaving on Thursday. I was so hoping to see an alliance with Donny, Zach and the returning player from the jury house. Then we would have been in for a ton of excitement. CBS might as well give the check to Frankie and start showing reruns of the Dr. Will season for entertainment!! What a disappointing and predictable season it has been this year!

Boo! I hope Zach doesn’t go. First Nicole then Zach and all that’s left is crap except for Donny who will without a doubt be gone next week. Snooze fest. I hope Nicole comes back or this season is toast 🙁

Oh no new post. Caught me making Peach jam. Be back later.{{{HUGS}}}

I guess the HG don’t consider Christine a girl! She certainly doesn’t belong there. Why doesn’t Derrick suggest putting her up if he wants to save Victoria?

I really don’t like Kathy Griffin. I think she’s rude, crude and uncouth. I do think that her and Zingbot are a match made in heaven. Going to DVR it and fast forward through their segment. Well back to my Peach jam. {{{HUGS}}}

FYI: There is a golf tournament again tonight in our area. Last week it went way late. I am going to DVR the two shows following BB just in case! Talk to you all after the show ~ unless I have some earth shattering news in the meantime! Bye! 🙂

Why do people in the house not catching on to Derrick. Does not make sense why Frankie would put up someone in his alliance when there is still some in the house that is not in the alliance that can be put up. Are all the house guests just plain not very bright or what.

D ido christine cant be out up donny saved her when he alone won bob. Oh how I hope that donny wins hoh and puts up derrick and frankie and they sont win pic. And then double eviction donny wins pov and another of the egg heads have to go home. Oh well one can dream.

If frànkle was smart he would back door derick.frankie is all about droma.he already showed he does not care about the liance and he is smart to know this might be his only chance to get rid of hem.

One of the good things about BB16 is this blog – thanks Lisa Marie and all the wonderful bloggers. Just when I thought the game was going to get interesting up pops Derrick and talks Frankie into BDing Zack. Zack kind of grew on me the past few weeks and I was hopeful that when either Hayden or Nicole came back they could form an alliance with Donny. Guess production had other plans! Big Brother was one of my favs during the summer months, now I can get the action by reading this blog and watching Thursday while reading a book or almost anything else until the final vote. It really was not designed to be so predictable – was it? Cheers to all and again thanks for the updates and insights.

Hey Starfish!!!! how you doing honey? …………

Found thus little gem

GODDESS

Tic 16 ~ the handwriting is on the wall! Frankie was especially hand picked because of his flamboyant lifestyle and to drive us crazy!!!!! I am over this whole production slanting the show towards their favorites. Please give us a break! Send Frankie to the jury house ~ I am sure when it comes time to vote, he will vote for himself! What other choice would he have???. He loves himself too much to vote for anyone else!! 🙂

LM – There’s never a doubt your write-up is going to be golden. You are the heartbeat of this blog!
cathy – I have the same dream!
Ok, I like Kathy Griffin. Give me a virtual stoning if you must. A lot of celebrities and/or ordinary people I initially do not like at all, I immediately become fond of when I hear they have rescue animals. I can be bought with even something so simple.
Macy – maybe Cody came down with what Jocasta had every time she was on the block. : )
Bobo – Glad to see you’re up and around!

two I have not been down , still up & going strong! Sometimes everyone has some bad days & good days….. Thanks for your concern my friend ♥ …..

Jolee :lol:…………… So sorry darling…. same thing happened to me with my cat!

Thanks…I’ll be 67 on the 23rd. 😆

Time for some TV………See you all soon………

I like Kathy Griffin. She is getting a bit played out, but I watch every comedy special she does. I put her in the same category as Don Rickles. She’s not a legend like him, but she’s a hate comic. Blasting people, making fun of them, telling stories of stuff she’s seen behind the scenes….I dig it! I’m a HUGE stand up comedy fan. I’ve come to learn that comedy is completely subjective. One person may love a joke as where another is completely offended. I don’t get offended by anything a comic says because they’re a comic. They’re there to evoke a reaction. Anyway, just wanted to weigh in on it.

Did anyone else notice when they did the nomination ceremony and were kinda mocking the whole random draw thing, and Donny was left out of that. Donny looked like he was SEETHING after Frankie made his noms. I mean, he was shaking and his eye were squinty. Normally I would just assume that good ol’ loveable Donny was gonna cry cuz he feelings were hurt. Not the case this time, he KNOWS they’re all working against him (why it took him this long, I have know idea) and he was PISSED! This is legitimately the only time I’m glad he won. He was doomed, Christine was handing bones to the other team and he still pulled it out. Oh yeah, and how many wrong bones could Cody, Caleb and Christine find??? I mean, did Donny even find one wrong one? I suppose it was luck, but man….I’m so cynical I wonder if he got tipped off about where to find some bones? Probably not, but Donny seriously has a horse shoe up his ass. Also, it was nice to see the show address Christine and her flirting ways. Its been everywhere online and the feeds, so to ignore it would have been ridiculous.

I can’t believe I’m gonna say this either, but I kinda like Zack now. They really know how to edit the show to tug at your emotions. They make him look so wild and hateable for a few weeks and then he’s the victim and likeable. Backdooring him would be way smarter than getting rid of Victoria, but these cowards probably won’t do it.

I thought it was cool how Donny beat out the young guns. and he was smart enough to realize Christine wasn’t even trying so he pretty much knew he had to do it, so WTG Donny

Anyone watching the live feeds? Seems like there is finally some drama in the house with everyone blaming Zach for the missing items. Of course, I’m sure it will be over by the time BBAD comes on. Despite everything, I still like Zach and would prefer Cody or Beast Mode Bunny Slippers to go this week.

Sylvie…The airplane cracked me up!!

It’s showtime!!

Ugh!! I dislike Christine more than ever and I never did like at all. It is one thing to throw a comp., quite another to try to assist the opposing team in winning. So glad for Donny.

Hi ev1 Hope y’all are doing better than me…
Forgive me but I just need to vent and what better place than here!
I am just appalled at how production gets involved …Caleb was in HOH room talking about things Sarah (production) told him…I couldn’t hear it good but he definitely wasn’t told not to talk about his diary sessions or production. Now that hes so far up Frankies so called “famous” buttocks no repercussions for what he does or says. Can anyone say favorite! I can’t stand Caleb aka Beastmode cowpie. This whole TA mission sucks just a way to give them an excuse for backdooring Zach and giving more money to their chosen few!
Thanks for letting me vent 🙂
Angel Hugs & Blessings to all
Have a g’nite

@junksies

I hope she didn’t think her mom flew to tge west coast land on tge east coast from Florida as a starting point !
Dumb!

Victoria kills ,me no education ?

Zach shoots himself in the foot with a Qball and now TA challenge is being blamed solely on him. I feel bad for him and hope he can wiggle out of it. I hope he blows up against the house.

It’s about time that BB shows crusty and cody for who they are. It may be just a game but how people play the game does reveal their true character no matter what they say.

Donnie is the best player IMHO and so underestimated. Look how far he has gotten all by himself. And he’s got everybody’s number. I love that.

two, lol … cross off Chris Rock! I definitely do not like him. Jeanne and I were trying to think of some more modern comedians and we mistook Chris Rock for …I can’t remember! 🙂 It must be my age! 🙂 I think instead of wakey, wakey, I will go to bedie, bedie!! I really enjoyed your response to my rambling. I too hate any kind of cursing! Another generational thing. I agree about having a comedian in the BB house. Anything would be an improvement! Nite dear two! Talk to you tomorrow. This lady is off to bed! <3

To add to the comedic comments. I don’t care for the ef word every other word because it doesn’t mean that you are funny but that your vocabulary is lacking big time. Robin Williams was hilarious and Kathy Griffin can be hilarious especially when she is with Anderson Cooper on New Year’s Eve. However, she even gets on my nerves and goes too far. Some of them find humor in demeaning others or criticizing racial groups but true humor is in the eyes of the beholder. I have to agree with both two and Jolee regarding your comments even though you each have different takes. I like all the comedians you both like.

I was not surprised at all that Christine tried to help Zach and Caleb. That’s who she is and I don’t say I hate anyone but I know she and I would never be friends. Poor Zach if he’s getting blamed. He’s the only comedic relief in the house. Frankie is obnoxious and on my last nerve. I don’t have a favorite but Donny sure has proved himself and has saved himself, all by himself, on several occasions now. I have to give him props for that. Can’t wait to see who comes back in the house. If Zach goes this week, that means it will probably be one of the 3 and I can’t see Jacosta winning anything. But watch, she’ll probably win this one and make us all scream at the TV. LOL nite all

Like him or not, Derrick does deserve to win. He is the only one playing HIS game and getting all others to sabotage their own game! Frankie thinks he is playing his own game, yet always does as Derrick says.
Donnie may not have much of a social game, in many eyes, however, he is pl as ying HIS OWN game. Not Derrick’s. On anitjer note, in my opinion, Donnie has an awesome social game. Everyone loves Donnie. He didn’t form any alliances, but he also hasn’t made any enemies. Go Donnie!
No comment regarding Derrick’s other robots – Cody, Caleb, Christine as nd Victoria.
Zack is Zack and even he is at least willing ti play his own game.

Hi vets & other newbies !
Lisa M., apprecsh your daily synopses ! Tonight, I missed BBAD. Was on a long-distance call. If anyone else watched BBAD tonight, would you please post an update if I missed anything important ? The last 5 minutes looked like something was going with Cody, Christine, & Caleb laying on the floor outside the HOH room, however, I have no idea what. Please tell me Donny is NOT being evicted this week !! If he is, then Derrick or Frankie have won & there’s no reason to keep watching. Thank you in advance ! 🙁 🙁 P.S. I can’t stand Kathy Griffin either !!!!

Lisa love your blog!!!! It is so the Frankie show, I’m so sick and tired of looking at and hearing all his flamboyant antics!! Production needs to stop manipulating how this show goes, it is so obvious that BB is scripted. Something that ha bothering me for years now is how during elimination night when the HG’ go in to vote they meet each other in the hallway and tell each other who they voted for…..come on BB lets not be so obvious!
I love how Derrick is manipulating everyone and all of them are so stupid they don’t even realize it. He really does deserve to win because he is the only one really playing the game. If Frankie wins or comes in 2nd it will not be fair, he doesn’t deserve any of the money. Donny deserves 2nd place or for sure Americas favorite.
Christine needs to fade into oblivion, can’t stand her cackling!!
Again thanks Lisa for all you do, your the bomb!!!

Jolee – add to that my fav – Red Skelton , a ‘gentle’man with a fantastic sense of humor.

Frankie better wake up and smell the roses!! Zach would have targeted Caleb and Christine before going after him. Doesn’t he see Derrick has Victoria and Cody in his back pocket, while he only has Caleb and Zach. Why doesn’t he realize Christine is not on Team Frankie? It is so obvious, with her head being so far up Cody’s ass. Hey WAKE UP FRANKIE – Christine is not on your side!!! Oh well, easy to talk from my armchair!

I just noticed quite a few tweets about a possible upset regarding renoms rule – HG not to be told they are going up and out … could be reason to celebrate yet!

@Starfish, I agree, Donny is frustrating. I’m not sure he really knows how to play the game.

Well, I’m over the moon today. I was just offered a job a Macy’s. I told the interviewer how much I love the store and the company even though I can hardly afford to shop there. He said the employee discounts are great LOL

erie! Congratulations to you!! The last few days have been great for you and your son. I think it’s time for a cupcake in celebration. We are all really happy for you…and want to use your discount at Macy’s too! : )
Just thinking – watching the houseguests eat cupcakes would be more entertaining than anything else this season so far.
Starfish – Your comment about the crayon writing on the wall is just the kind of humor I love. So clever. Also I wanted to mention that Jay Leno is about my favorite comic, and I was sorry to see him leave the Tonight Show – both times.
erie – do you remember Love Canal? Awful.
Good morning, Jolee, and everyone else who considers this time of day morning. : )

Why do I have a strong feeling that BB is using the network and BB16 to promote their artists
Like Ariana and Kathy Griffin?

It’s really annoying how they all know who’s going up and it’s all predictable like a sentence
Evil Dick was fun to watch because he had a personality even if he made it hard for the HGS
but at least they didn’t spend hours napping and staring at walls

Crustine has gotten on my last nerve!

@Dianna…I am glad somone else noticed this too..especially since tht someone else is not only you but BB!!! We all talk about how far away from the original show this has gotten!! And one of the FIRM rules was always that you could NOT warn the HGs that they were going up on the block which one was going home or getting backdoored!!! Now WHY they chose now to enforce thisis beyond me. Prolly because they made such a big deal of telling Zach and then stayed aup all night monitoring him so he didn’t steal anymore clothes. Or ANY clothes, since he didn’t do it to begin with!!!lol

It’s not really just a rule, it’s common sense AND made the game more exciting, NOT to tell anyone who is going up!! Ever heard of the element of surprise working FOR you in HOH??? DUH!!! They pretty much have told everyone all season if they were going home and I kept shouting at the screen…*STOP THAT!! * lol they were so worried about telling Zach he was going home. easy- peasy soltion to that would have been to let him know later…like Thurs night!! I think the problem is that these kids are too dumb and young to separate friendship from game. I can’t beleive I am using Caleb as the voice of reason, but he was talking to Zach last nite and telling him it didn’t matter what he did he was going home. But reminding him it’s just a game and he wants to hang out with him after the show. etc. It really did make sense and made Zach feel better. If you separate Caleb from Beast Mode…kind of like a conjoin twin operation…he might be a decent guy with half a brain!!lol

@erie….Hey…congrats!!!! I will be helping pay your salary as I LOVE Macy’s and shop there WAY too much…lol Jelly of your discount too!!! Dumb Question..are you in erie Pa, judging by your name??? Is it a big Macys?? I’m in Kalamazoo, Mi and ours is pretty small by most standards. We actually drive an hour away to Grand Rapids alot as their store is twice as big as ours!! What department will you be in?? Whatever it is I am sure you will do well! If you don’t spend everything you make in the store!! If I worked there, I may as well just sign my check adn hand it back over to them!! 😉

@two….it’s late morning for me. Just finished up some coffee. Waiting for the A/C guy to get here. I thought you were up at the crack of dawn actually…lol

glad he is going to jury – but have a feelin he will be back soon – just like brendon, jeff and jesse got to – the bigger the target…….the better t.v.

TA challenge was no biggee for donnie – he went to bed at almost his regular time and up at 6 as usual

Star – heehee I’m more the crack of noon type! Thanks for the info about Frankie using the POV. The happiest moment of this season for me will be seeing Frankie leave the house. I wonder if Arianna will be in the audience to comfort him. Probably not since I’m sure she would charge a huge appearance fee. I care about who wins this year less than that Frankie doesn’t.
Jolee – I think you’re a cutie too!!! Do you think you and Jeanne and I were triplets separated by mother, father, and a few years? : ) As far as making me hungry, you had me at crisp!

two, hi sissy!! 🙂 Your post made me laugh! I would be happy to make you an honorary sister! By the way, for our late lunch we had crispy chicken croquets with delicious homegrown tomatoes and corn on the cob! 🙂 Hungry?? You have a standing invitation for dinner anytime! After all, you are Family!! 🙂 <3

Finch, Red Skelton was one of my favorite also. 🙂

two, aka sis! 🙂 I’m sure you have heard the old saying: “Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man/woman healthy wealthy and wise!” I believe that: “Late to bed, late to rise means you’re retired??” 🙂 I have never been an early to bed girl, even when I worked! Life is too much fun to sleep it away! 🙂 IMHO

@aggie 40 & 41 Totally agree….go donny. have lots to say but best NOT.

guess i did say some ‘stuff’ after all but actually not all i wanted to. have a sick dog so i’m worn the &^%$ out.

i do like c.l.g.

Hi all my USA friends 1st blog for a good while I’ve been to caught up in our BBUK which ended on Friday it was a great season by the way loads of twists & turns, anyway especially erie-angel celeb BBUK has started tonight we have 4 Americans in the house Gary Bussey ( don’t know about spelling ), Leslie Jordan, ( adorable ) Frenchie ( bonkers ) & Stephanie Pratt.
On the Brit side Audley Harrison ( boxer ) ” Kellie ” a transgender boxing promoter who’s just come out so should be VERY interesting & a bleeding good laugh

Just occurred to me. Donny reminds me of Forrest Gump! I can hear him saying “Life is like a box of chocolates….” and then everything just falls in his lap.

On comedians – The team of Harvey Korman and Tim Conway left me needing oxegen after watching them on the Carol Burnett Show. Korman was the perfect straight man for Conway’s antics. The best parts were when Korman would try to keep a straight face, while Conway went off script. I was literally rolling on the floor laughing with tears streaming down my cheeks and trying to catch a breath. No one better at improv until Robin Williams came along. I first saw him while I was having a haircut. Someone put a tape of one of his San Francisco performances in the VCR and had the whole shop in stitches. I so wanted that tape! I think I finally decided to switch to cable when I heard he was going to be on HBO. R.I.P Robin…..:-(

tendr, so sorry your dog is sick. It’s sad because they can’t tell us where they hurt. God bless you and your doggie! \õ/

two,(sis) I like the way you think! We’re all a part of the BB Family!! la, la, la, 🙂

Hey all, sorry I didn’t come back earlier. I had drive my son to the doctor, the cat attacked him. Got him good too. I’m sad to say, I think it is time to put the old boy down–the cat not my son. LOL

To answer some of the questions I got: Yep, Erie, PA. I live just a few blocks from the public dock, but miles from the nearest public beaches. If anybody is ever in the Great Lakes region, Presque Isle State Park should be a national treasure. At Macy’s I’ll be a member of the support team. Of course, I have to wait for my background to come back before I can start. They said that could take about a week. I have no worries, in my last job I had to have an FBI fingerprint analysis, state criminal background check and child abuse check. And yeah, signing my entire check back over to Macy’s is a fear I have. I think I’ll have to work 2 jobs just to support my new Macy’s habit and pay all my bills. Actually, I have an accountant who pays my bills and gives me an “allowance”. A few years ago I had some serious financial problems during a manic episode (I have bipolar disorder) and not handling my own finances seemed the logical way to go.

I also realized today that I will need a new wardrobe. Macy’s is a different type of job than the last one. When I worked social services it was common to go to work in jeans and plain tee shirts. Sneakers were my common shoe. Macy’s will require a more professional look. So as soon as the background check comes back, it will be time to do some serious shopping.

Oh and the store medium-sized I guess. I haven’t been in other Macy’s stores except ours so I don’t really have a frame of reference. I did buy my dress for my daughter’s wedding and her step-daughter’s flower girl dress at Macy’s. Pretty much the only items I’ve ever purchased there.

Jeanne, I LOVE “Who’s on first”!! One of the funniest routines ever imagined. I was never a big Abbott and Costello fan but “Who’s on first” is wonderful.

As for BB, hope it is true that this is Grodner’s last season, though that rumor was floated last year as well. She really needs to go and new blood brought in to change the game, or bring it back to it’s roots.

I see Derrick as trying to play a Dr. Will-inspired game. Remember season 2 Dr. Will came in and on the very first day he told everybody that he was going to lie to them, warned them not to trust him. Every time somebody believed what he told him (which was usually a lie) I was like “Idiot! Don’t you remember what he said the first night?” None of them learned though and he walked away with the win. Unless the few that are left wake up and smell coffee, Derrick, too, will walk away half a million dollars richer.

And why doesn’t Donny speak up? He sees what is going on but plays along hoping it to advance into the F2 spot? And what is this hatred for ‘floaters’? Some of these people seem to think a floater is anybody not in their alliance. A floater is somebody who advances through the game without really doing anything. That makes Cody, not Vic or Donny the ultimate floater. He hasn’t won anything, hasn’t made any moves, hasn’t convinced anybody to do anything. He just goes along with whatever his alliance wants. At least Donny and to a lesser degree, Victoria, have tried to play the game even though their games suck.

@ Tendr

We can say what we want here, don’t hold back, I certainly do, If someone doesn’t like it, they will get over it. I really hope Donny can hang in, I like him. Zach I don’t mind going, him and his hand clapping is annoying. HMMMM, I wonder what will happen if Frankie ends up on Jury with zach? Maybe Romance will happen 😯
