Well, I made it less than five minutes after the live feeds went off this morning at 3 am before buying the feeds. I blame Tamar. Just a reminder, the comment section of the Big Brother posts are used to update the live feeds so when you hear things like The Mooch is out of the house and have questions, that is the first place you should head. I hope to see more of you in comments both with and without feeds as the season goes on. At lot of us night owls are glues to PopTv from midnight to three am each night. The first After Dark show was beyond all expectations. Please join us!
I am just so excited when this show starts. I can’t believe we have had three nights in a row. We’re truly blessed. I am dying to see how our Kandi ended up as The Mooch’s replacement. I need the Big Brother theme music on loop to sleep by. I would have the best dreams.
The errrr…. Three Tops, Tamar, Lolo and Natalie realize they are not in alliance with Jonathan and Ryan. Kandi figured that out the day before. Ryan, the athlete can’t pronounce the word athletic. The three tops want to take out Jonathan. But this is before Kandi hit the block. Tamar is leading the charge to get Jonathan out but Lolo and Natalie are not ready to do that yet. OMG! Lolo and Natalie go into their bedroom and talk about coming up with a final two name. Guess who is in the bed wide awake that they didn’t see? Tamar. I love it. Lolo and Tamar get into it when Tamar tells her, “Don’t get punched in the throat.” Bipolar Tamar makes up with her within minutes. Tamar’s mood changes like the weather in Florida. She is getting a lot of airtime which means production will protect her to keep the crazy in the house.
When the Three Tops take over the HOH for an alliance meeting, Ryan and Jonathan bust in. One, it’s Ryan’s HOH room even though he is afraid to sleep up there alone and two, THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE AN ALLIANCE. And yet, the girls storm out as soon as the guys come in. This alliance can’t even hold it together through the first eviction! Lolo is hurt that Ryan doesn’t want a tight bond with her in the house based on their time in the Olympics together. It’s just one giant clusterfuck of hurt feelings and mistrust. Lolo flipped off Ryan and Jonathan’s photos on the photo wall right in front of them.
It’s time for the veto competition. Or at least the first one. I hear there were two based on the live feeds. The veto was played by the HOH, the three nominees and Ricky and Joey chosen by random draw. Ryan can barely read. Why did they only pick two players instead of three?
The competition is called Giddiup. They have to rock a horse back and forth 40 times to put 30 seconds on the clock. Then they jump off and stack their gold bars on top of their horseshoe. They have to keep going back to the horse to add time to the clock. If the clock runs out while they are stacking bars they are out. The Mooch thinks the Golden Power of Veto looks like a Trump toilet seat. I’m going to miss The Mooch. Ricky won POV.
Sidenote: The cast is all complaining about how many takes they have to do in the diary room.
Kandi tries to solidify a good alliance with Tamar, but Tamar seems to feel Kandi owes her some sort of apology for past transgressions. Girl, shut up. You are in the Big Brother house with someone you know. Put the past in the past and stick with Kandi! Tamar says she was in a bad place when she went on Kandi’s tour and Kandi talked trash about her. They go to the private room to talk. Tamar says Xscape talked about her behind her back on the tour. Kandi says it is all in her head.
OMG I need a meme for this dramatic diary room scene with Tamar losing her mind crying. This bitch is crazy! No memes yet but Twitter is mocking the hell out of Tamar. Tamar continues to approach Kandi with conflict. Why does it say “TV Personality under Kandi’s name instead of “Grammy Winner” or something. I get they don’t want to advertise Real Housewives unless absolutely necessary, but still.
Ryan asks Ricky to take down Jonathan so he can put up Lolo. Ricky tell Lolo what Ryan said. He admits he likes to stir the pot to keep the focus off of him. He wants everyone else to be stressed. Why is Lolo gutted by this news? She just flipped off his photo right in front of him. The girls are all pissed despite turning on Ryan and Jonathan first.
Ricky does NOT use the POV. He says no one made him a strong enough offer. True. Ryan just told him what to do. Ricky does not like to be told what to do. I think he used his win well. Perhaps this is why there was a second POV.
The comments here will be an extension of the post through Friday’s show. It’s supposed to be a live eviction, but somehow The Mooch has to leave and Kandi has to get put on the block before all of the live stuff can happen. I’m surprised we didn’t get further along on this episode. Are you?
So I’m a little confused. Are you saying since Mooch left and Kandi was put up Ricky’s POV basically became null and void? Then apparently Kato wins the next one. #confused. I’ve watched since season 2 (regular version) and I think this is a first. Correct me if I’m wrong. I definitely wanted more tonight. Last night I commented saying “who is Ricky” and BAM! Dude is playing and seems to be channeling some of the greats! Tamar is on another level. Are they calling her to the diary room regularly for her meds??? She is driving me nuts but like Kaitlyn last year we may miss her crazy when she’s gone! Except I really didn’t miss Kaitlyn.
The Celebrity version moves at breakneck speed and it is very confusing now because the tv shows are so far behind the live events.
Ricky’s POV win was on Monday. After that happened, It was announced that The Mooch was some sort of a mole and not a real player and he left the show according to some sort of preordained plan with production. the houseguests don’t get it and neither do I. I was hoping tonights show would explain it because the events all happened on Monday.
Then apparently there was another POV that KATO won. So I guess they did another one on Tuesday? But before that happened, SOMEHOW Kandi went on the block to replace The Mooch. I guess they needed Kandi to have a chance to play for POV to make it fair?
Kato won the veto and took TOM down. Ryan put Kato used the veto to take Tom down. Lochte put Joey up. JONATHAN appears to be the target for the guys. (biggest threat) but they are worried that the Kandi Tamar feud may fuck things up.
I heard Tom after dark last night saying that Anthony came out and a suit and revealed the gig was up… he was a mole sent in their BB.. he was at some political event the next day and somebody in a interviewed and he just said it was a great time it was good fun… So I don’t think he DOR… Tom said there was clues but nobody thought that look at the clues.
On another note Tom was also advising Dina to be careful what she says because the live feeders see everything 24/7…Dina goes on to say especially with me here ….there are going to be glued to their computers..Lol
A mole FOR WHAT? Wouldn’t a mole need to be there for at least most of it?
I guess it was like an Eric Stein kind of thing.. The longer he can make it without being a victim the more money he would get… I’m truly not positive.. But Tom said some telling things like we should have known ..there was clues.. we just didn’t pick up on it ect….
TMZ says Anthony was not voted out, but left.
Kati won the second POV and used it to take Tom off the block.
Joey went up in Tom’s place.
This episode was way too short. Tamar looked ridiculous trying to start drama w Kandi. Even on the live feeds she kept blowing everything Kandi said and did out of proportion when clearly there’s no merit. I’m glad we have the feeds on Pop cause it shows us the background.
Kandi….then LoLo….then Ricky… She was insisting that Ricky was in a room with Kandi . He denied it and said Kandi was in there I didn’t see her..Tamar could not except….EVEN after the Eva and LoLo situation…SMH Tamar…It just happened to you!
Ryan and Jonathan can go soon hopefully!
Tamar is a mess.
Curious to see who suggested Kandi on the block!
Something about Ryan is off to me and in his talking heads, his words seem so rehearsed as if he’s acting. Jon is so far up Ryan’s behind that he’s gonna end up back to the set of mean girls if he doesn’t play it smart. Lolo is too darn emotional and needs to go to the diary room with Tamar to take her meds also ?
I’m scared for Kandi though, it seems like she’s in this game alone and I really wanna see her win this thing.
I agree about Ryan and the talking heads. It’s too rehearsed and looks freaky.
They sometimes write down what they want them to say. As we saw when Ryan had to read the card for the POV comp he can barely read. That is why his diary rooms are so odd. He’s a meathead who spent all his formative years swimming instead of going to school.
Ryan has done too many flip turns in the pool.
Best twitter quote (I don’t remember from who) of the night: Ryan is “bless his heart” in human form.
This!!!
I’m scared for Kandi too. I also wish she was labeled as more than a tv personality. She’s a freaking Grammy award winning artist who’s still writing hit songs. She’s far more than a reality star.
I agree with you Amanda. Maybe Big Brother doesn’t think people know about Kandi’s other accomplishments. She is so talented with the Midas touch.
I was def disappointed that the Mooch had to leave for what ever reason, he isn’t a bad guy and I am sure he would have alot to say hopefully about t-rump but alwell, I know he said he didn’t want to go and he was going to try and talk to people about keeping him. Tamar really knows how to talk with her face doesn’t she now, lol. I don’t get Candi why didn’t she come out and just talk with Ryan, same goes for Lolo none of this Olympic friends forever crap, if she was pissed talk it out. Kato is probably going to fly under the raidar just like he did at O.J’s house, at the end of big brother they better check and make sure he didn’t stay on. lol
THe Mooch’s company had a bit convention in Switzerland he had to be at so there was some sort of an agreement for him to just be there for the first week apparently.
So I am new to this BIg Brother stuff, does it usually take this long before anything really happens? Starting to get bored with it. I
Mean after 3 episodes of Survivor you have three people out already. They just keep dragging this on I feel. Tell me, should I stick with it or is this just how it is? And I agree, Kandy needs to be recognized for more than just being on RHOA, she’s got a Grammy!
If you don’t like it so far, you are not the Big Brother type. This is a very lightly edited show that airs multiple times a week and has one live eviction night a week. It’s not an entire week of all the best moments edited into 50 minutes to tell the story production wants you to see like survivor. BB is more a show to observe people and their daily behavior. Sounds like that is not your thing.
It’s so dang messy in that house right now, production needs an extra day to figure out how to spin it for the Friday episode. They’ll have to pack a lot into a 1-hour show tomorrow.
I still don’t fully understand what was behind the Mooch leaving.
Tamar needs to get it together. She’s hurting her own game over this petty BS with Kandi.
Tamar needs to grow up! She’s the baby of her family, but she’s a grown-ass woman. She got fired from The Real and destroyed The Braxtons show with her antics. It’s not cute and definitely not a good look. Miss Evelyn (her mother) should come to the CBB House and snatch her up!
Anthony’s exit had to be pre planned because he showed up in Switzerland yesterday and was interviewed there today.
Tamar thinks she is on Real Housewives of Atlanta and not in the Big Brother house. I think she was channeling Nene with the exaggerated facial expressions.
This!!
This episode gave Tamar a way better edit than the feeds. She is going total Audrey BB17 with the blankets and sunglasses and freaking out. That said sorry TT kandi could have been nicer when Tamar let her know how she was feeling. You shouldn’t dismiss and laugh at that. BUT like I said it could just be editing and Tamar is bat shit crazy.
In Kandi’s defense … she always does that awkward little laugh when she’s uncomfortable.. I think that whole conversation was making her uncomfortable because it was so off the mark…Tamar seriously needs to be on mood stabilizers or something…Somethings off.. I know the house causes paranoia….but it appears to be more then that. Jonathan Is looking like Andy …popping up in every room listening in on every conversation but they’re on to him… That whole scene in the HOH room when the boys popped in ..was seriously awkward ..I could not believe not one of those girls could recover and say something smooth.. They just got up and bolted making it so obvious!
I made this post after watching Wednesday’s show. I’ve been watching the feeds. I agree. Tarmar is nuts. She is blinded by her paranoia. Yeah Kandi should have/could have handled it better but no sooner do they make up and Tamar is back on the crazy train again.
They edited her to be sort of normal on the show. I fell for it. I’ve been woke.
I think Tamar is gonna be one of those characters that wear ya down. Hell, I’m tired of her shenanigans and it is only episode 2. Or is it I’m just being grumpy tonight.
Tamar is obnoxious as fuck.
Entertainingly cra-cra.
You’re not grumpy. Tamar is a big baby. I hope she’s voted off next. Please, please, please let Kandi win HOH and put Tamar on the chopping block!
Hoping everyone in that house feels the same as CoCo and she exits quickly. She is exhausting to watch. I really don’t enjoy any show she is on and try to avoid her but I do love Big Brother.
Is it me or does anyone else think Ryan is chowing down on edibles. He can’t read he can’t talk and he looks high as a kite.
I really think he’s just dumb as hell.
This He is just really, really dumb.
Kandi Vs Tamar, has me living!! I knew Tamar was going to say something about the tour. Just with their background. I hope it’s gets better and we have 30 days of them.
Why the heck would Ryan put JOEY up? Why not go ahead and put up Lolo because he APPPARENTLY put up Kandi… Unless The Mooch got to pick his replacement.
Dina Lohan sounds just like Sonja Morgan to me.
As long as Jonathan is there, Dina is safe from eviction.
Loving the rcaps TT,. Can’t get the show here in oz.
#cerealboxosprey is EVERYTHING!
This is my second time watching. I only watched because of Omarosa. This time it’s funny. Except for Tamar..she and Lolo is going to get voted off with their weak antics. The football player is the person to watcheck he is being strategic. He had a spat with Tamar about Kandi just watched the you tube clips and could not hear all of the conversations.
Gurl Kandi betta start making some friends … This Tamar is crazy as HELL!
Tom Green found a box of costumes in the empty HOH room and was playing dress up for the live feeders. Then he found a way to plug his mic into Joey’s keyboard and was playing it loud while the other HG’s slept. Production finally cut the cameras on him. Tom is so bizarre and creative, he can’t help himself. He’s playing a good game too. He’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but I find him so entertaining. I hope he stays around till the end.
This is my first time really watching BB…I would occasionally watch physical competitions if I was flipping channels and that was on, but this is first season where I have set dvr and am tuning in…this cast was too stacked not to pique my curiosity.
Some thoughts:
-Ryan reading the HOH script was undoubtedly the most painful thing to sit through
-Jonathon is overplaying his hand
-Tamar is beyond annoying, but she seems to know how to play the game, both the actual game and how to make production want to keep you
-Tom Green is hilarious, I hope he stays for a long time
-Lolo and Natalie need to realize pretty isn’t going to work and get their heads in the game
-I expected better game play from Kandi
-Ricky from the start of the veto comp has been bringing it…I did not think he was going to play, but the competitor has shown up!
This show is really fun and I enjoy the spoilers advancing things in the comments!! I am going to have to see if I have poptv, I’m a young widow that doesn’t sleep much, this will give me something to do while folding the kids laundry in the middle of the night.
Grodner Is at it again and leaking information to Jon.
Since I don’t have time to watch live, I don’t know what is going on. I just finished watching last night episode and I am LMAO. ?? Crazy Tamar just bought herself a ticket to be in the final 4. Production will never let her go until the end. That one is crazy as F. ?? My opinion is base on watching the edited tv show only. I was watching and so confused!!! Great TV?
At the last moment Tom who is voting with Kato, Lolo, and Natalie (and Tamar I think) were supposed to vote out Jon. But for some reason Tom decided he wanted to keep Jon because he likes him. He tried to sway Kato, Lolo and Natalie to flip but it did not work. As of now, Jonathan is getting blindsided tomorrow. We think Grodner was behind Tom trying to flip because she wants him to stay but as of 4:15 am Jon is leaving.
Sorry, new to BB, who is Grodner?
Allison Grodner is the evil female producer who picks her favorite contestants (hot guys) and manipulates behind the scenes as much as possible to help them out.
Producers talk to the houseguests in the diary room and can lead them into paranoia of some or feeling more trusting to others. If an HOH is planning to nominate someone the don’t want nomination the will say things like I can see why X would be a good move for you, just like Y would also be a good move for you… have you made up with Y since they did xyandz to you?
I don’t see Kandi fighting to stay in the house. I realize she’s been told she’s safe but she should be making SURE she’s safe. I barely see her on the feeds. She’s not playing BB.
I want Jon to go. Mostly cuz I hate Ryan. The are last minute pitches by Tom to keep him safe everyone likes him.
I can’t wait for tonight!
My guess is production is telling Kandi in the DR that she’s totally safe and shouldn’t campaign to stay because it’ll inflame Tamar even more. Then they’re telling Tom and others not to vote Jonathan out because they’ll look bad because Jon’s a “fan favorite”.
Production has reached a shady new low this season and it’s starting to turn me off. They made their own mess with this twist that put Jonathan on the block in the first place, after he lost the HOH face off to Ryan. None of the HG’s caused Jon to be on the block, it was production. Now they’re trying to move heaven and earth to save him.
I don’t understand why everyone doesn’t just vote out Joey.
I appreciate TT, this site, the comments/live feed updaters as I’ve never had After Dark/Pop in my TV area and no live feeds for me this time thanks to this gov shutdown. The BB updates giving me life right now!
This morning Tom is STILL trying to save Jon. He told Kato (who is becoming exasperated with him at this point) That he is still voting out Jon if that is what the alliance wants to do, BUT he wants Kato to understand that if they save Jon they can work with Ryan and Jon and Joey instead of Lolo and Natalie.
Um The entire house is ready to get rid of Tom because he got his big fat feelers hurt when Ricky said some random things that hurt his feelings. It was a total nothing burger about Tom’s standup comedy after Tom was going to do a bit for a few of them and then decided not to do some jokes because they were political. Ricky went in on Tom, who did not state any political beliefs, about why he would not claim his political views. Tom was very hurt and upset over what he perceived as an attack by Ricky and moped around the house. The house then decided that Tom is too sensitive for the house and needs to go for his own mental health. In reality, they were all trying to identify a weak link and an easy person to evict.
Kato is actually very smart but is getting tired of having to talk sense into Tom. Tom’s plan for the two of them to go rogue on the vote tonight, force a tie and have Ryan vote out Kandi is ridiculous. This is the perfect time to get Jon out because he is a superfan and a great player and won’t be on the block again for a long time if he stays. Plus it takes away the person who explains the game to Ryan who is dumb as a house of bricks and has no clue about strategy. Ryan will be blindsided by Jon’s eviction and left clingng to Joey. And I think Joey will look for a new alliance. I could see Joey, Ricky and Kandy forming an alliance HOWEVER both Joey and Ricky are idiots who DO NOT WANT TO BE IN AN ALLIANCE. Because idiots.
In other news, the latest “Final Four” Is Lolo, Natalie, Ricky and Tamar. They are all in the same room. But again, Ricky is not committed to any alliance and is a quiet pot stirrer to get his bidding done.
This is a great season and a lot of people are going to be surprised tonight. Jonathan is making Dina vote for her friend in the house, Kandi and she is probably going to be the only vote for her. She will be left without her closest ally, Jon, and the perceived protection of the guys. She will be even more clueless than ever. That said, Dina seems surprisingly normal, reasonably intelligent and kind. Not what I expected at all.
Woah! Tamara! How the heck are you keeping up with this and writing coherently? You have super powers! I’m shocked Dina is acting totally normal. I guess she finally grew up or we’re in for some major crazy out of nowhere. I’m so glad I decided to watch this season!
This is my first time watching BB and it’s because of Kandi. Not my fave RHOA but definitely rooting for Team Bravo. But Im so confused. I didnt realize that they aired episodes are that delayed and competitions are happening in between. I get wanting me to be engaged with the feeds and after dark but I cant keep up! I was waiting for tonight’s episode and if I hadnt come here I would have been so lost. So thanks!
I wish the Mooch had stayed. I think his back story is so interesting and would make a great player (he trashed Trump for years and the makes it to the WH? genius!) and I love that he’s crass but has no pretense. Tom is like the ultimate Greek choir and I dont want him to go either. Jonathan is hands down the best player but over shot with trying to keep Dina and breaking the alliances trust in the first 24 hours. Kandi and Tamar need to play the game and leave their issues in Atlanta because we dont care. Lolo is in love with Ryan, it’s childish and creepy. Ricky is low key and the one to watch. Kandi said her plan was to follow everyone and she literally does! She looks so tired and bored on the aftershow. Dina has no idea she’s playing a game. I feel like she’s the most left out but she’s just so happy *thirsty* to be on TV.. I hope the Mooch comes back and Jonathan gets the boot just so we can see if there is a deeper layer of stupid to Ryan. noooo I just realized I only DVRd 1 episode of Afterdark not the series. Im going to be so confused tonight
