It’s time for another Big Brother 23 recap! And, it is a DOUBLE EVICTION NIGHT! I am so excited and nervous for this episode. I’m also an eensy bit behind. I’ve been super busy today and am still very behind on emails. I’m so not a fan of Julie’s dress tonight. I used to play Big Brother games online and one of the questions was always what color will Julie wear? The correct answer for tonight would “not that color.”
Why are we wasting so much time? Is the end of the episode going to be on the feeds? Alyssa tells the Cookout alliance that if Claire goes home, the final seven are all minorities. So, she asks Azah and Big D if she is next to go. They tell her no and laugh. They tell the diary room yes! Hannah is going to cast a sympathy vote for Claire, and she is already telling Alyssa that is Ky and he is coming after X. Smart way to get Ky on the block. IF that works.
The Very Sad Eviction And The Very Fast HOH Comp
OMG! Derek said, ” I sadly evict Claire.” That was perfect English! He forgot to say “vote” but he’s almost functionally literate at this point! ALMOST. Claire goes home in a vote of 4 to 1. Claire says she will give everyone hugs on finale night and dashes out the door. She may have been told to do that for time constraints. Claire talks about how people of color have historically been treated unfairly house with Julie. She respects Tiffany’s decision. She gave a speech to the other houseguests before voting about how they are handing this game to Xavier basically. She’s not wrong. Julie asks for her rationale. She was trying to look out for Tiff and Hannah and get them focused on getting X out.

The HOH will be a very fast questions round. I hope Hannah or Alyssa win. The questions are based on a series of BB Comics videos they will watch. Are they really wasting BB Comics on a three minute HOH? Surely not. I should also point out the X and Alyssa are both in their Kings T-shirts. Derek is the only one to miss the first question. He sucks at literally everything. Azah was the only one to miss question two. After three questions, Ky, X and Hannah are tied for the lead. Hannah takes the lead on the fourth question. Three questions to go. Kyland ties for the win on question five. Hannah takes the lead on question six. And wins with six out of seven correct. She is the new HOH! YAY!!!
The Veto Comp
Hannah already knew exactly what she was going to do. Claire’s speech about X was clearly all part of the plan to make Alyssa feel safe. X agreed to go up on the block again. He knows that Alyssa is going out. But she is being told by Hannah that she is the pawn. Meanwhile, Hannah is adding to her resume. You go girl. Allyssa really is as dim as Zing Bot said. But the veto can change everything. Everyone except Kyland is playing veto. He was eliminated by a random draw. It’s a 3-D puzzle. That means Alyssa won’t wine. Nor will Derek. Azah is unlikely. So far Xavier is winning. That was probably the plan for all of their jury management. Unless he is dumb enough to use the veto on Alyssa. And he’s not that dumb.

I’m not really sure what Hannah’s plan is here. I heard Ky’s name mentioned. But, not sure she is telling the truth. Hannah replaces X with Kyland!!!! YAY! Kyland and Alyssa both seem pissed by the nomination. I doubt they would get this close to their final six goal and keep Alyssa. But it could get exciting if they do. Kyland keeps things short and sweet. Alyssa is pissed and says literally no one will vote for her to win. She’s right. So they can send her home, and keep doing what Kyland tells you to do and lose to him or keep her and take her to the finals and win. It was a very smart speech. Unfortunately, the white half of her is about to be sent home. Big D flubs his eviction sentence one more time. X voted out Ky, knowing he was staying and Alyssa is evicted.
Xavier cries in the house after she leaves. So does Kyland. The Cookout has reached their goal! Alyssa felt like her final two with Hannah was real. The just made it last week. The weird thing is the house currently has no new HOH. Next Thursday is a TWO HOUR EPISODE! I cannot wait! The cookout is celebrating being he first alliance every to stay intact until the end! And they were a day one alliance! Congrats to them all. Now the fun begins for us.

Thank God. I’m getting very bored lately. I’m happy for them, but I’m about ready for a new, UNPREDICTABLE season. They really did pull this whole thing off like none other. It doesn’t hurt that there were more than one “dim” people in there with them, oblivious to it all, especially Alyssa. The only thing I will say for her is that since she is half black, it probably WOULDN’T make sense, because if it was a people of color alliance, then logically she should be in it. I do think that that part is messed up, and I wonder how that must feel to a lot of people who are half and half. We hear/see over and over about this sort of thing happening to them in life. She’s probably gonna be hurt (and pissed).
Who do you all want to win HOH? Who do you want out next?
I’d like a Hannah win. I want Tiff and Hannah as the final two. I seriously don’t think it will happen and it will be either Xavier bringing Big D or Kyland bringing Big D.
Don’t count the cookout ladies out just yet. If Tiff or Azah wins this week then hopefully Kyland or Xavier can go home.
I believe your comment is referring to Alyssa as being half black. I’m under the impression she is Latina and white. So she should not feel surprised to be left out of a black alliance.
That said totally agree with Your bored comment. I am thrilled that the cookout pulled this off and that 6 black players have made it to the end. Had it come with more “close calls”, other players figuring out the alliance and more drama, it would have made it far more entertaining. Basically great outcome, but not so entertaining to watch
First of all I found the season very interesting to watch. Am super happy to watch. Alyssa herself said, When Claire goes and I going home because I am only half BLACK. She knew what was happening and why she would be going soon.
I completely missed Alyssa saying this.
Opps I didn’t mean to submit
I completely missed Alyssa saying this.
I did hear the conversation (but not from the live feeds) and she said she was a person of color.
I believe they played it again on tonight’s show.
The vast majority of people in Puerto Rico are “white” while about 20% are Black. Just like there are white and black (and Asian and Hispanic) people in the US. So either her one of her parents is a black person from Puerto Rico, or one of her parents is a black person from the US.
Again, Puerto Rican is not a race. Just like American is not a race. Both are nationalities.
Alyssa is not half black; she’s half Puerto Rican and half white.
Well you need to tell her that. She plainly said, “Am I the next to go because I am only half black?” BTW Puerto Rican is not a race.
* I mean how it must feel for people like Alyssa watching.
Yes not black enough for the black people and not white enough for the white people is something I heard from biracial students a lot while teaching. That thought process starts around middle school and extends into the college years. Basically all I could do was talk to the students that were leaving that student out, privately. And even then, I just had to sort of praise the left out student and not try to push the situation. At the college level it was easier for me to be more direct with some of my advisees because they all really liked me.
This is learned prejudice. Young kids are not like this. I had a male student in my second grade class who was biracial, and in my opinion transgender. At that grade level sometimes you call the boys to line up and then the girls and vice versa. The class was multiracial, Hispanic, black and white. The one child would always get in line when the girls were called and play exclusively with the girls at recess. Not a single child ever mentioned it. Nor did I. There was no racial issues with the kids in that class. They all played together. Some of the “best friends” were of other races as were the cute little crushes.
Somewhere along the line that sadly stops. We need to figure out how to fix that. Unfortunately they learn it at home by fifth grade or so.
Tiff was the one to come up with the master plan that took the CO to the final 6 (pairing themselves with others outside the CO). I want to see her get rewarded for that. I would be good with Hannah winning also as she has played a very good, under the radar, game. Either way, please let it be a woman!
Those are definitely my favorite two as well, and have been since pretty much day one, which is amazing, because usually that changes numerous times for me. Tiffany probably won’t win, even though she deserves it, unfortunately, but Hannah has a good shot.
Speaking of Tiffany… I don’t know how the game of Big Brother will ever be the same after her genius plan. I see it possibly changing the game going forward, as in it may become a basic strategy in years to come. I’ve pondered if she came up with it on her own or if production helped with it? I’m not saying that to take away from the possibility that it was all her. I adore her and it’s obvious that she is extremely bright… you just never know with this show what was truly a contestants idea vs a production fed idea. It’s just soooo good. It’s like at the same time you can’t believe that in all these years no one else has ever thought to do that.
Other alliances have tried this strategy before in previous seasons. It doesn’t usually work this well. For example, Tiff would never have gotten rid of Claire if there were not a “higher cause” involved. Most alliances get on each others nerves and they start picking each other off.
Paul played a game where everyone thought he was taking them to final two so he went all the way to the end in Season 18 and 19. However, both times he lost to a less strategic player due to bitter juries.
I concur! Everyone will be filing that move in their plan books going forward.
I was beyond excited for double eviction. Literally screaming at the television when they did the H.O.H comp. I was shocked how fast Xavier finished that veto challenged. Literally the camera panned away for one second then he was almost done.
I think Alyssa knew when Hannah put her up that was seriously at risk. If you are really in a final two with me why would you even risk me at this point. I was happy Hannah won in the moment but upon further reflection this could be really bad. If Ky had won then the following H.O.H would have been Azah, Tiffany, and Hannah vs X because Derek is irrelevant. But now that Hannah is out, it is up to Tiffany because Azah hasn’t proven her comp skills. Though if Tiffany wins then the following week they will gun for her. In an ideal world Azah wins and sends Kyland home. This is when the game gets REAL.
I wonder if Derek will go after Azah.
These are all great points and exactly the reason I don’t see Hannah as a great Doesnt think several steps ahead. However, she is at least good for the way in which she savagely manipulated DX into not competing in the HOH takeover comp.
Tiffany May he’s been sloppy at times, but she is a Great player. I hate to say it but Ky is almost fairly good.
I’d rank who deserves the win in the order 1- tiff 2- X 3- Ky 4- Hannah. At the same time, this week is when the real playing begins – when they how to turn on each other.
DF has to win something to be able to “go after” anybody. DFlop has no chance. All he does is run his damn mouth.
He & Azah could win the lying in bed contest.
DFlop is claiming to have created the CO. I thought that was an interesting comment from him. It would be a miracle if Tiffany survived the block, they know she would win if she made it the final two. It is wise to get her out or she will win in it. I don’t want Ky or X to win, but those are the 2 I see been the final 2. Hopefully that want happen, but I believe it will.
Kyland is the new HOH
Kyland is HOH. Tiff and Hannah are most likely going on the block. The competition was something to do with an egg. Apparently, it came down to Ky and BIG D. And either Ky didn’t want to win this one because it will lose him major jury votes. D muffed it. Ky tells us winning this one is what is going to lose him this game. He’s really upset.
This is worst case scenario for our girls. If one wins veto, Azah will go up. I tried to tell the bitches to get the guys out while they were sitting on the block week after week.
how, why, didnt they listen?
But did they EVER LISTEN!? NOPE!!LOL
Now see what happens.
Must say, after watching “The Challenge” and the way Josh still behaves with that temper, I was glad no one acted a fool this season.
You must have Typed wrong…. Big D In SECOND? Big D almost WON?!!
And what happened to Ky’s final 2 with tiff? I know she abandoned it long ago but I thought Ky was talking about it recently and was being sincere that he wanted to take her to final 2. What did I miss? Did X convince Ky he’d lose if he did that and to take X instead? Or is Ky’s ego getting in his own way again?
I have no answers to your questions other than Big D did well enough losing his millionth challenge to let us know he “almost won” on feeds.
I think Ky has been misted by X. Also, his ego is way in the way. He has a F2 with X, but X has several F2s. Ky has chosen to be with X, DF, and Azah instead of Hannah and Tiffany. He wants to sit next to “the best” in F2, and everyone has told him that X is the best.
So ugh, Ky and his talking talking and talking. It will be interesting with fewer people if he still talks about their games and how they help him?
Of course he will, LOL.
Morning 🌄 hope a good day to all.😊
It’s been well over an hour for I thought nom meeting, but nothing yet.
Ky is leaning towards tiff and Hannah.
He stated he wants to sit next to Xavier.
Like I said that he said all along, he does NOT want to go to the end next to a girl.
Tiff is trying to get Kyland to take a boy (him) and her (a girl) to the end.
Hmmm.
Xavier and Kyland have both said that there are way too many women on the jury to take a female to final two. They are correct. Anyone who takes Tiff or Hannah loses. These two are going to have to fight their way to the end if they want to win.
Aha. I was never able to understand why he felt that way.
Thanks.
Wouldn’t it be hilarious with Big D and Azah as final TWO!! AHA.😊
Haaaa! They could do their jury questions from bed!
An hour ago was nomination ceremony. Not done yet.
An hour ago was nomination ceremony.
Tiff and Hannah expected to be nominated and Azah as a replacement nom if veto is won.
Ky was doing a lot of talking and it’s easy to get lost in his words? Thoughts?
Keep us posted.😊
It would have been fun to have had BIG D as HOH, just to see how he would handle it.
He always talks big, and blamed being big as the problem with everything, LOL.😊
Nomination ceremony has been like at 10:30am these past few weeks.
Why so late I don’t know.
I think that a battle back is not going to happen?
This week may be slow 🐌 with Ky.
I wish the jury house was shown.
Oh, TT, can they talk about the game after eviction in the jury house or not until finale?
Hannah and tiffany are nominated by Kyland for eviction.
Tomorrow will be the POV competition and will maybe be a game changer.
Have a good night 🌙.
See 👀ya tomorrow for POV. Exciting.
we really just needed to know who won HOH and who is on the block if you know. I didn’t have a chance to watch today.
The important parts are WHO IS HOH. (I know it is Kyland)
WHO IS ON THE BLOCK
And then the relationship dynamics should you understand them .
The truth is it is girls against the boys here.
Tiffany and Hannah are on the block.
Feeds are down for veto. Tiff REALLY REALLY needs to win. Send her some positive vibes. If either of them come down, Azah will go up and they will finally realize the guys are not their friends. I told you to take out X when you had the chance. He will probably win.
I have actually been praying for Tiffany to win veto!
No mention by anyone of what an amazing exit by Claire. She grew a few more feet in my estimation by what she had to say to Julie. Julie, on the other hand, with her “child of God comment, dropped a few feet in my mind. I do not watch this show for proselytizing. STFU Julie Chen Moonves. I may have to switch my AFP votes to Claire from DX.
FUCK! Ky won veto. It was BB Comics. Tiffany or Hannah will be going home. 🙁
DF: These girls ain’t pulling their weight. Tiff gotta go.
Tiff: *wins HOH twice*
X: Tiff is selfish she gotta go.
Tiff: *keeps her word & sends her BFF out the door*
Ky: Tiff can’t be trusted. She keeps lying to me. She gotta go
Tonight will be my busiest night in a couple of years. With Potomac and the long awaited premiere of RHOSLC. So Big Brother will have to take a back seat. hopefully I will be able to get through all three tonight. If not BB will be up tomorrow. Sorry. I have to do what pays the bills and save what I am most into and hanging out with you guys until the end.
Please check this post thought. I added a few videos. They are of DF talking about how he is the start of the show. He is convinced he is going to get AFP over DX because apparently DX brought nothing to the game. ROFLMAO. Did he not listen to Zingbot who told him is only contribution to the house is shit stains in the toilet? He’s SOFA KING delusional!
In other news, Tiff and Hannah are both fighting hard to stay. Hannah knows she is probably fine and Tiffany knows she is in trouble. So she has been cuddling with Ky (see photos added to this post) for hours. Ky has all the power this week so all she needs is to convince him to keep her. That is a big task.
Sadly I think Tiff AND Hannah will go home on Thursday night. Then Azah next week. I DONE TOLD THESE BITCHES TO VOTE OUT X! It’s like they don’t listen to me! LOL. I hope Hannah wins HOH and puts up X and Ky.
I’m praying for Tiff to work her magic on Ky. And they go to final two together. She would totally win. But I am not sure my prayers are going to do any good. I need my BBF Marc WITH A C to pray for her to survive Thursday, then send Ky home and take either DF or Azah to the end.
Speaking of Azah she said something like “I woman is not going to win this season.” Which is likely true. But then she followed it up with “NOT ON MY WATCH.” She’s basically saying she will vote for one of the guys. Someone on Twitter explained that this is a culture issue because she is from… I forget the country where women are more subservient.
Also, DF is going around telling the guys that Hannah is young and in college and the money should go to someone older with bills and stuff.
In other words it is a big cluster fuck.
Thanks TT. I think that tiff has the age and experience of talking and dealing with people that may at this point, Hannah can’t beat.
It is going to be fun to see how this ends.
I forget about Azah. What a great time for her to win something.😊
I guess it’s not over until it’s over.
Binging SLC, and looking forward to felon #2? LOL.
A good night for TV.
