I watched parts of it while doing some household stuff. Liked it, especially the X factor, which should really keep the pot stirring.

Please keep me on the ping list.

Happy Saturday, BB FReepers. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. Here in the NY area, Big Brother was postponed until about 2am last night, due to the Yankees game (Have I ever told you how much I hate baseball?). I tried to stay up, but fel asleep halfway through. I'm now in the process of downloading the episode, and will give y'all a quick recap after I watch it.

I need some feedback. As I've stated, I subscribe to the 24/7 live Internet feeds. Because of this, I find out what happens several days in advance of the Tuesday and Friday shows. For instance, the Power of Veto competition was held yesterday, and will not be televised until Tuesday. With that in mind, would you prefer to keep up in real-time, or wait for the show to air to be surprised? I could always use white text for spoilers, so that those who wish to read them could without ruining it for everyone else. For an example of white text, drag your mouse after this period.

Let me know what y'all trhink would be the best way to run this thread.

I found a GREAT new reality show tonight on ESPN2 - Beg, Borrow or Deal. Two teams of four race from South Beach to Mt. Rushmore. They start with no money, and get a list of HARD sports tasks in order to get food and transport. They can beg also stuff off of strangers, but can do only one task per state.

Neither team could do a 200 yard swim medley in under 4 minutes, were having trouble getting pool managers to cooperate on doing jumps off 10 meter boards, and couldn't talk a TV station into letting them do a sportscast. Finally, one team made it to the swimming hall of fame, for a prize of the use of an SUV for 12 hours.

I want to fondle this michelle chick..

Put me on the ping list.

I subscribed to the feeds last year as Josh was having his meltdown. I didn't want to take a chance at missing that this year, so I subscribed before the first show started.

Last night alone was worth the $25. Scott's meltdown, tantrum and eviction was priceless.

In light of what happened with Scott last night, does anybody know if evictions will continue this week?

Hi folks. I'd like your input on a feature I'd like to run once a week or so. I think it would be neat to reminisce about houseguests from seasons past. I'll find pictures, live feed transcripts, and attempt to find out what they are up to these days.

That said, does anyone have any particular requests for houseguests I should research?

[jmc813]

Good morning folks. I'll be posting a quick preview with predictions for tonights live show in a bit. In the meantime, check out this thread about a bit of hanky-panky going on in the Head of Household room last night.

One more quick announcement; for those of you in the New York metropolitan area, this Friday's episode will be shown immediately following the Yankee game which begins at 7:00. Have I ever told you how much I hate baseball?

[jmc813]

Just wanted to post a quick preview of the first live episode airing at 9:00 EDT this evening.

Tonight, Amanda and Jee are up for eviction from the house. Or are they? As we saw last night, Dana won the knot untying competition and Power of Veto. Whether she decides to use it or not will be addressed early in tonight's episode. For those of you who cannot wait, Thre is a white-text spoiler posted by me above.

Perhaps more important than the eviction will be tonight's Head of Household challenge. Tonight's HoH is particularly important as only 6 members of the "Original 8" alliance will be eligible to win as opposed to 5 non-alliance members. Certain people winning tonight could trigger a major shift of power in the game.

For those of you with live feed subscriptions, I strongly recommend you watch the houseguests immediately after the show ends, as strategizing is typically at it's heaviest early on in a Head of Household's reign.

Enjoy the show!

Nominations were held yesterday evening. White text spoilers below...

After intense debate and discussion with most of the houseguests, Jee decided to nominate Erika and Michelle. His intention is for Erika to go and for Michelle to be a "decoy".

A reminder for thoseof you in the New York metropolitan area; Big Brother will be shown immediately following the Yankees game tonight. Enjoy!

[jmc813]

The Power of Veto competition just ended. White-text spoilers below....

David won the Power of Veto. There is now talk of him possibly using it and making a deal with Jee to put up Dana for nomination. This would be a godsend for the David-Jack-Erika sub-alliance.

[Peace4EarthNow]

I can not believe how immature that Jun and that other girl (was it Allison? Can't identify all of them yet) were acting last night - hiding under the window to eavesdrop on Ericka, & giggling and laughing at what they heard!

I was pretty disappointed with the nominations - Jun & Dana should have been put up. Hopefully, with the Power of veto, that will get changed.

[sweet_diane]

Please add me to the ping list... i'm hooked! The spoilers are great. I miss the days of free live feeds!
