    So, in order for the field trip competition to work the way I want, I would need to vote for Nick, Christy and Sis. One strong competitor who is not in the six and two weak competitors who are in the six. Nick would put two more members of the six on the block anyway once he’s HOH.

    No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  A thousand times no!!!!

    You vote for the three WORSE people in the house from you pov.  Because there is no guarantee Nick would win safety as he has 2 chances in 3 of losing. 

    Also the winner of the competition does not become the HOH automatically.  They are two separate events.

    Voting for the three worse guarantees one of them is nominated.  So what if one gets safty.  One or more would anyway from that group. 

    Picking a "favorite" will condemn that person to the block if they lose and perhaps making them a target plus giving them a punishment if they come in second.

    I'd go after Jack, Jackson and Tommy myself.  Christie is already a target now and she might lose an endurance or balance competition to the two Jacks.  Tommy stands a better chance of ensuring either the disgusting bigoted racist (Jack) or the one the the girls find treats them offensively (Jackson) go up on the block.

    Besides Tommy is coasting scott free riding Christie's coattails.  If he does lose that cripples Christie totally.   And if ignored the little damn rat will probably win BB this season.

    Vote for who you like the least from your pov of course.  Just do not NOT N-O-T vote for a "favorite" or you could well help those Six to get your favorite out.

    Sorry for all the bold but please this is my worst nightmare that anyone would accidentally help those Six.  And voting for a "favorite" almost assures just that will happen putting your favorite in danger.

    The problem I see happening more than casuals voting their faves (which I do think has a good chance of happening unfortunately) is that say by some miracle Jack or Jackson is evicted this week then they're no longer eligible for the vote so if they're one of the top vote getters it'll have to go down the list and someone we don't want to get it could get it. Or if Jack, Jackson, Tommy, or Christie get HOH then same thing. 

    Sigh, I just know this will somehow not work out lol.

    I was wondering too what happens since this doesn't take place until the week after. 

    You think next week might just be a fake out and no one is going home at all next Thursday because it could be a real mess otherwise.

    Or maybe they give them a Kaitlyn-style puzzle to get back in the game immediately.  Of course it Jessica goes out even that wouldn't work.

    I didn’t hear that one was on the block and one was the 3rd. I only heard one would be the 3rd nominee and one was safe. Having the other be on the block doesn’t make sense. So the hoh only nominates 1 person? And they’d have to do it before the comp otherwise there wouldn’t be a 3rd nominee 

    There ARE three nominees.

    Jess gets next to zero airtime.  I think she'll be safe from the causals voting in their favorite and the feeders voting in the houseguests they loathe.

    "Casuals" -- and how I dislike that demeaning term -- will vote for the three people they despise most.  It was made clear in the explanation one was on the block, one was punished and one was safe.  One of these three would be safe anyway so you go after all three.

    Again, campaigning for everyone to vote Jack, Jackson and Tommy.  Christie would probably not beat Jack or even Jackson if it is a physical competition.  So Tommy to help assure a Jack goes on the block and, worse case, Tommy the Rat himself goes on the block.  Win-win.

    Secondary win.  Christie goes nuts with Tommy in danger.  (Also Christie is already a target now so make Tommy a target too).

    Yet another stupid production twist. How do we play this one, America?  I hate the Shitty Six, so I kind of want to vote for 3 of them to guarantee one of them is on the block. However, I know that they'll interpret the vote results as meaning we all love them SOOO much and we were hoping they'd get safety.  Stupid twist, production. Won't even let us convey who we like/dont like to these assholes. 

    Nope.  Julie made it clear if you want someone nominated for eviction nominate the three you most want out.

    Sure, and then he's at least vulnerable to be eligible for the Field Trip. 

    Ok, I feel like I need to make this clear because Taran Armstrong makes a good point: casuals are going to misread the Field Trip rules, vote wrong and they're going to vote in Cliff and Nicole because they don't understand that the Field Trip is supposed to be a punishment, not a reward.

    No again.  It was really REALLY clear in the explanation you vote against all three with hopes that one of the people you hate will at least go on the block.

    Me I'd go with Jack, Jackson and Tommy because Tommy will win if not stopped -- or at least spotlighted now -- and Christie will be crippled with her precious pet rat in danger and go into complete meltdown mode for our entertainment. 

    Also if it is a physical challenge -- especially endurance or balance -- Tommy at least might have a chance to beat the two Jacks assuring one of them goes on the block.  Christie? Not so much.

  5. Well it was interesting that Julie said at one point the vote did indeed flip to Kat going home.  But then flipped back in the final hour.

    And see, Julie, when you didn't know what was happening -- aka production stopped endlessly tampering -- how excited you got.  That's how it should be every week.

    Meanwhile remember to vote for Jack, Jackson and either Tommy or Christie for the "America's" competition. 

    I kind of want Tommy up more than Christie because Christie at least is entertaining in panic attack mode while Tommy is just plain over the freaking damn top annoying, the little rat, and is coasting on her coattails to easily winning this season. 

    And Christie will indeed go into total panic attack mode if her beloved pet rat goes up.  So that would be 4 in 3 blows.

    Yikes!

    Okay this wasn't even from the first album so I do have to at least give Shatner credit for milking musical horror to it's ultimate pay out as he laughed all the way to the bank. 

    I see Shatner is back on TV hosting some stupid "true horror" show or something on cable now.  Guy has gotten more mileage out of being Kirk for what was it three years then the films -- and being attacked by a gremlin on the wing of an airplane on The Twilight Zone -- than anyone else could.

    Wait, I feel a crossover coming to me: BB: The Star Trek Addition.

  7. Damn!  Now I will have to watch the show tonight live with some hope.  But then the stupid hamsters will go back to Plan A and just vote Sam out unanimously (minus maybe Nick) like planned.  They can't keep paranoia going 90 miles an hour for the next 2 plus hours without wearing their little minds down into group think again before the show.

    But too bad the feeds are down.  The next hour could be fun at least until Christie gets out her bullwhip and puts them back in line.

    You can sometimes hear unnatural breaks between words and inflection changes. 

    You can also see their eyes moving sometimes while reading this shit.  And, again, no one talks in a hyper, animated tone like they all do in real comments.  Nor would they sound the same in tone and outlook like they do while reading the scripts they are given.

    Apparently not....

    Listen at the end when he loses his ever loving mind, calling out for Mr. TM!

    Oh my God.  It is official.  Shatner's Mr Tambourine Man (I skipped the boring horror of the Cyrano parts) makes The Brady Bunch's (or was it the Partridge Family, I can't tell those two families apart) American Pie sound like a classic by comparison.

    What?  You guys are saying something actually happened on BB while I was torturing myself with this?

    So it wasn't a code word, right? Just a random mention of Brussel sprouts? That's hilarious. Especially for someone so "psychic." Snerk. .

    Yes.  It came from the TV episode where Chistie was having her first major panic attack and the TV editors just showed clips of Nick saying random things then cut to Christie going into panic mode over it.

    Then they re-showed those clips in audio/video slo-mo to make the random things sound even sillier as in mock sinister inter-cut with random shots of Christie now in total, full on, panic mode.

    The editors just had fun with Nick mentioning Brussels sprouts in passing.  The hamsters have NO idea it is a "thing" outside the house but fans, looking for what fun they can make of this season of horror, have made it a "thing."

    Yeah, Jack, Tommy and Christie are by far the best players this season. A win by any of them would be up there. 

    Up there with what? The founding of the reality show version of the Fourth Reich maybe where a totally rotten racist, an annoying second rate actor and a would-be psychic fearful of Brussels sprouts take over the world?  Count me out.

    There is absolutely a teleprompter in the DR and some contestants are better reading their designated lines than others.

    Yep has been since Grodner took over.  For years now.  No one speaks like these people do in real life.  The only "real" thing in the diary room is when one of them is having some sort of breakdown moment and Grodner gets some bonus footage that way.  Otherwise they just read their script. 

    And one person is always made the "yeller" each season too so Sam has been assigned that role this season.  If he doesn't yell enough I'm sure they just tell him "take two, with more yelling."

    Remember under the original producer when we would get some great, natural diary rooms from the likes of Dr Wil and Danielle.  Those were the days back when reality TV was still somewhat at least "real."  And when casting was interesting as well.

    Well, from what I'm reading on Reddit, at least we're getting a whole "But Sam MIGHT NOT be going home tomorrow?" shitstorm. I know Sam is still a goner, but it seems like they're doing the obligatory "BUT WHAT IF HE'S NOT" segment for the show.

    It seems like there is consideration to keep Sam in the game from....Tommy? Did I read that right? Do I have to turn on the feeds for the first time since the HOH competition to see this?

    Well the TV episode tonight made it clear 100% that Sam is being evicted.  The editors didn't even try to slant it any other way.

  14. Well if (and it is a big fat if at this point) that rumor proves true and they told the Sick Six something of what America thinks of them then BB is officially dead.  The whole point is to keep them entirely isolated from the rest of the world.

    Yeah production cheats and manipulates the game all the time but this would be crossing the very last line left that made the show even remotely interesting.

    ‘Round her neck she wears a yeller ribbon,
    She wears it in winter and the summer so they say,

    — "Round Her Neck She Wears a Yeller Ribbon" - an Army marching song, © 1917 by George A. Norton.

    And there was a very famous John Ford western starring John Wayne that was entitled "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon" that turned part of the last line into "for her lover in the U.S. cavalry."

    Thus concludes my contribution to the only thing interesting happening this day on BB.

    I don’t really know Paul.  Never got him.  Don’t remember his first season and could careless about those friendship bracelets.

    Was he evil?????

    Yes, yes he was.  He was evil as in sadistic and loved to bully people to tears.  To liken him to an honestly nice and kind Tyler is like favorably comparing Charles Manson to Mother Theresa.

    I guess this is slightly worse than 19, because 19 did have SOME standout moments with Raven, Cody and Jess. It's very similar, though, and I think the darkest parts of BB19 are far darker than the darkest parts of this season.

    I think this season's worse parts are worse than B19 because at least Paul was an equal opportunity asshole and bully but Jack is an out and out racist and to me there is nothing worse than that.

    And as much as I also hated Cody at least he fought back hard against Paul.  No one has against Jack or even Jackson.

    Also Raven was entertaining.

    I'm a teacher and just judging from Sis's syntax/grammar/lack of verbal abilities she might have been given an Individualized Education Plan and alternate assessment. Standards for graduating are different. Not a surprise she also played sports -- many kids with learning disabilities are pushed towards athletics as a way to channel some of the frustration they feel in the classroom.

    But she played sports (well, a bench warmer anyway) in college, not elementary school. 

    And to this day colleges just don't hand out scholarships or even grant admittance to women athletes like they do to male ones unless they are really really really good at said sport (which she wasn't) and have the grades to get into college legit.  So the question is how did she even get into college if she was in some alternate assessment thingie way back in elementary, junior or senior high school.

    Cliff said if Kemi wins AFP his jaw will drop to the floor. Let's make that happen.

    Yes!  Because if Cliff's jaw would drop imagine what would happen to Jack.  He would spontaneous combust and end up as just a pile of ashes and embers on the live finale.

    This is bigger than personal likes of this or that player.  This is The Revenge of the Fans! 

    So make AFP MEAN something this season.  Make Jack combust on live TV!

    Holly talking to Christie and Tommy about Sam:  "Yesterday he compared me to Pontius Pilate.  Today he compared me to Trump."

    Yeah way to work your way into having Holly as an ally ... not.  I'd love to see Wednesday's TV BB show the footage where Sam compares himself to Jesus but they will be too chicken to do that.

    Sam has been a complete zero like most of the cast.  Total coward from first to last.  At least Cliff took one lone shot before folding.  All Sam talks about is putting up Nicole if he were HOH or trying to get someone else put her up.  Total waste of space.

    Thanks for the link.  Grodner will never change though. She is so used to (cough) "whitewashing" these racists she thinks she can get away with it forever.

    The only way this will ever change again is if sponsors get on board demanding a change or they pull their commercials and move them to another network because all Grodner/CBS knows and cares about is money.

    And the only way sponsors will ever act is it they get backlash from viewers.

    I missed the last 10 minutes so did Julie mention anymore about this field trip thing?

    Julie is in only on the live show which is Thursday night so you will have to wait until then.

    What a boring episode where the competition took up half the show and they had a "who wants to see my HOH" crap shown for the first time this season.  The really boring and generic letter from mum shows how desperate production is to get anything out of this both vile and dreary group.

    BB, you want a chance, however remote at this point, to save this beyond horrible season?  Forget the damn "road trip" stuff.  Make America's Choice instead to nominate the two HG's that go up next week just like in BB1.  You know.  Before they had all this boring HOH crap and the show was actually interesting.  Then add in a "twist" where America can also prevent the use of a veto that week as well.

    Analice pushing for Nicole is ultimately pointless. Remember Christie wants Sam gone. So Sam will be gone. 

    Why exactly is Anal Lice so worked up about getting Nicole out and keeping Sam?  It's not as though she is playing the game so there can't be some tactical reason.  So why is she so scared of Nicole?

     Thanks to Wiki I was reminded that BB8’s Daniele and Amber were flown to NYC to be contestants on the game show The Power of 10. Amber won $1000 and Daniele didn’t win anything.

    I do think I might be on to something with this Love Island field trip possibility. Wouldn’t it be hilarious if Kat got to go and Brett was there? 

    Brett isn't there.  And, again, no they are not sending the 3 HGs out of the House for at least 3 days of round trip/visit travel of over 10,000 miles and spend thousands of dollars for their airplane tickets plus their minder.  And chances are these bozos don't even have passports so they couldn't board an international flight anyway.

    IF this had anything to do with "Lust" Island at all they would be sent to some isolated room somewhere to watch an episode on TV while eating popcorn and making over the top positive reactions to that crapfest at most.
