Today has been one of those days where I don’t want to do my job talking about TV shows, because I want to watch TV shows. I watched a ton of Hunger Games movies and some Game of Thrones. Tonight I need to recap BB and the Shahs of Sunset premiere and then settle in for the Game of Thrones premiere. Then it is back to work Monday.
We start with the HOH competition. It’s the wall endurance challenge. It has been a regular competition on the show for years. The big guys always fall first. This challenge is made for strong but small women or men. It is well known that production puts the competitions up to favor whoever they want to win. Clearly they wanted an Alex win and got one. Jessica and Elena both did WAY better than I expected.
Wow. I didn’t know that Paul told Kevin to vote out Ramses. Did he tell Christmas that too?
Jessica thinks that everyone stabbed her in the back, and that she was bullied. She is totally delusional.
I was pulling for Alex so hard this season, but she totally laid down and gave Paul her HOH. It is a beautiful thing to watch Alex manipulate the entire house while they all just love and adore him. But how long can he keep this up?
Oh good lord. A montage of Raven’s “I’m dying…” stories. While we are talking about medical stories, Christmas returns to let us know she broke her bones in ten places. The surgery was for hours and they had to use a donor bone to repair it. She was there so long because they were having difficulty controlling her pain. She will never regain full mobility in her foot. She says that arthritis will set in within five years and she will need another surgery to fuse the bones once arthritis sets in. Raven is nice to Christmas, but she is truly furious that her medical story is being overshadowed. She talked to Matt a lot about how Christmas needs to go.
Sidenote: Dominque has beautiful skin.
Alex nominates Dom and Jessica.
The comment section for this post is the new live feed update area. For the record, feel free to contribute to the updates. It’s not just a place for me to provide the updates. It’s a place for the feed watchers to share information.
While big brother is busy watching us make time to hike Stone Mountain. There’s something worth viswing.
Paul is playing an incredible game in my opinion. We’ll see how it goes once his protection is gone, but it seems like he has quite a few very loyal people spread through out the house. Raven is annoying, sorry I said it. Obviously I feel for her that she’s sick but sge drives me nuts.
Big Brother is killing me. I don’t have the feeds but watch BBAD when I shouldn’t. Started overtime at work and have to be there at 6 am I tell myself every night to not watch but…
I haven’t committed to one player yet. Not a big Paul fan but at least he is better than last year. Seems like so far everything thing is weighed toward giving Paul an advantage but he is really making it work for him. I like Christmas but can’t see her going much further, think Raven is a waste of space and Jason seems like he is borderline “special” needs. I’m digging Kevin but he will eventually lose to one of the younger players. Ramses needs to pick a lane and play. Jessica, Elena and the others are not memorable. So far it has been a good season after several lackluster ones – IMHO. TT love the recaps.
Thanks T! Just to let you know, A WordPress update has made it so that names with apostrophes are always moderated. I can’t figure out a way around it. I will always put yours through as soon as possible (I sleep odd hours) so it’s no problem for me. Or you can leave out the apostrophe, whichever you prefer.
I’m on the live feeds often but not in the last few days. WOW, I missed all the Dom drama! It’s getting crazy! “God told her Paul, Paul, Paul” so it has to mean that he’s the snake! What if God meant trust him? And Mark sits around without mention about her dreams & visions…things change by the minute.
BlackFace Paul really? I’m done with him that shit is not funny nor entertaining.
Are you referring to Paul’s face mask for his SKIN?
Not at all he’s doing this to imitate Dominique, Jessica even said he should do green face but he’s insisting on blackface and a lot of people are up in arms over this.
Did you even watch the clip, or are you going by what someone said on twitter? He never said he was doing it to mock Dom. He mentioned using the black face mask to match the snake dress that is BLACK and white. Dom has been calling him a snake, so he was going to dress as one. People these days are too quick to hunt for anything to be offended.
? ✋
Paul in blackface will be the end of him on BB

When did Alex nominate Dom and Jessica? Somehow I missed it. Watching the 3 hour feeds has made
the broadcast hours boring. I used to think they were really happening during broadcast. Now I just get confused. Trouble is I’m now hooked on the overnights. They change my opinions about the players. By the way, what is Christmas still doing in the house? How is she a real player? She can’t participate in any competitions so how does she further her game? I do have a lot of sympathy for her since this event she
took on with such anticipation has possibly affected her life forever. It’s a shame.
Yes, Dominique has beautiful skin and is a beautiful woman! I noticed that too!
Why is Christmas allowed to stay in the game with a physical injury? I’m really curious since she will not be able to participate in some competition as they are physical.
Paul’s comments are very racially insensitive. Whether he meant them to be or not he is old enough and very intelligent so he is certainly smart enough to know the perception of his actions. If he was truly trying to imitate a snake there are tons of options that would not require him to do his face black. Very disappointed hope this plays out differently. He wasn’t a favorite of mine but I feel like he plays the game very strategically. For that I was impressed by him but this was a real jerky move.
I’m a Paul fan, but he is drunk with power this season. With damn near everyone licking his butthole this season, he’s gone crazy with the attention.
I fully expect the DR to shut this plan down. They tend to protect Paul.
Feeds came back at 12:15 BBT after veto ceremony . Jason did NOT use the POV. Jess and Dom still on the block. Paul had black snake designs on his face, not blackface.
Wow! I didn’t see that coming. I was sure he would use it to take Jess off the block. There are a lot of crazy twists & turns this year.
Josh and Mark were playing a game of pool. When these to play Mark does a lot of trash talking that belittles Josh. Josh lost the game because he scratched on the eight ball. He refused to accept his loss. When the bet the loser has to eat or drink weird shit. This time it was hot sauce. So Mark pour a huge cut of hot sauce for Josh to drink. Josh says he didn’t lose the game. Mark threw the hot sauce in Josh’s face, burning his eyes. Josh threw ketchup and mayo on Mark. things got a bit physical.
I can’t believe they didn’t call Mark to the diary room. So far no consequences.
Mark is a hot tempered asshole.
It was pickle juice with some Tabasco. Still wrong but not as bad on the eyes. I watched the whole thing they both acted like a couple of 7 year olds. I have been enjoying BB very much this year. I am totally a Paul fan but I am getting a bit sick of him. I am currently team Alex but expect I will change my mind a few times. I think Kevin is hilarious !!
I love Kevin and after watching him with Ramses, I’ve hit YouTube to watch some of he & his daughters clip “shows” & he is total #dadgoals for teen daughters. I’m sure people could criticize him for being too much of a buddy instead of a parent to his daughters, but I’m sure he’s playing things up more for the camera plus I’m sure when push comes to shove, Papa Bear comes out & he gets them in line. I’m rooting for him to go far now…
Glad to hear Paul thought better of his original idea. I was hoping he’d rethink his plans. I don’t particularly like Josh. I find him kinda irritating. That being said I don’t like the way he has been attacked verbally by some of the house guests. Call a dumb ass a dumb ass when they act like one but to get so personal as Coty did was hard to watch. Of course Jessica had to follow right beside him when he did it. Mark pulling his macho bullcrap does not surprise me. I wouldn’t be at all mad if they put him off the show for that.
I don’t think Paul every had any intentions of doing “blackface” this seems to be something drummed up by the Internet. TMZ’s post was simply ridiculous.
I have sort of an odd question. During BBAD, Matt’s tattoo is completely visible. During the shows broadcast on CBS he has a band aid covering a portion of the tattoo. Does anyone know if that tattoo says something that CBS decided can’t be shown?
I noticed the band-aid thing last night too. It probably just fell off. There was a big guy with lots of tats that had to cover his with a bandaid on a previous season. I think CBS is being unnecessarily vigilant in the copyright protection department.
Matt’s tat is lyric’s to the Boys II Men song, Mama. Which is copyrighted material. Matt is very close to his mother.
You taught me everything / Everything you’ve given me / I’ll always keep it inside / You’re the driving force in my life, yeah / There isn’t anything / Or anyone that I could be / And it just wouldn’t feel right / If I didn’t have you by my side.
I’m over the Paul show. BB has got to stop this returning players thing.
I don’t think Paul had any racist intention. I don’t know if he did or not, but he should of totally taken a pause and thought about the implications of using black face.
Thanks, Tamara. I can’t zoom in on the tat so I had no idea it was song lyrics. I’ve noticed they’re being really strict this year with keeping houseguests from singing and reciting lines from movies.
There was something that happened on BBAD last night that really bothered me. When Kevin went outside and told the others that someone had wrapped one of the beds in plastic wrap they almost immediately blamed Josh. Jessica even got so crude as to say she would shit in his bed for doing that. They were ready to confront Josh and have another go at him when Ramses and Raven admitted to doing it as a prank and suddenly everyone thought it was funny & had a good laugh over it. I’m so tired of seeing the senseless attacks on Josh and I’m glad he’s trying to control his anger but what the hell pleasure do these people take in treating him like that.
I totally agree, Terri. The attacks on Josh are vicious.
Also, that is not how the prank works.
A few things…
Raven is furious with Jess for stealing Elena away. Elena and Jess are BFF’s lately. She is rallying for a Jessica eviction/blindside.
Raven is furious with Christmas for upstaging her dying at any moment routine. Tonight, Christmas slipped and fell in the kitchen when her crutches met some grease Ramses carelessly got on the floor. She’s fine, She also fell around the time Elena was showing her big makeover reveal (courtesy of new BFF Jessica who did her makeup and hair) So Elena was not thrilled with Christmas anyway.
I am starting to think Matt may actually be gay and trying to hide it for the cameras. He’s SO VERY CLEARLY not into Raven, but keeping up a showmance facade.
