Big Brother Gossip Show #812: Toxic Waste

We're getting down to the nitty gritty. After this week's double eviction, we have five people left in the house. Will any of them actually go after Paul? We have glimpses of hope from one person. Unfortunatley, his name is Josh. What can we possibly expect from that manchild?

Yeah, not much. He talks a big game when he's left alone in the HOH to chat with the cameras. But he's a completely different person when he chats with anybody else in the house. It doesn't help that the one person he wants to bring to the finals apparently has a crush with a troll.

We talk about all of this and so much more. We laugh at the idiotic statements that Raven said in and out of the house. We talk about Jason's anger when he was evicted, and how even he refuses to understand the truth of what happened.

Tonight's show was so much fun, even if we may be struck down for some of our commentary. We really appreciate all of the support you guys give us every year, and if you want to help out please check out our Patreon site. We are including the various elements of Scott and Colette's Day Drinking spinoff show as part of this year's rewards, so we really hope you think about checking it out. Otherwise, you can find this show on iTunes, Stitcher, and all of the usual podcast sites.

ITS A LIVE EVICTION SHOW!! HOW CAN I WATCH IT??????

I'll point everyone that asks to this brief blog post for the next 20 hours......

Thursday night is a double eviction.  Its live - it will be rapid fire.

Amazingly not everyone can watch it live either because they have wall to wall weather coverage as the mother of all hurricane's descends upon them, there is some NFL, college or other team with a game pre-empting the show, or they live somewhere West of the Mississippi so their channel doesn't air Big Brother until later.

HOW CAN THESE PEOPLE WATCH THE SHOW LIVE???

Here are 3 options I can think of.  If you can't figure out a way from these options then I'm sorry.  Just know unless you are a Paul fan you probably won't like the result anyways when you watch it later.

Here are the options from easiest to more difficult. These generally require a COMPUTER.  If you only have a phone or tablet you MAY be screwed (try Option 2 though - it may still work as least for a month).

Option 1: Find an online stream.  Several people (including myself most Thursdays) tweet out links to online streams.  These sometimes have pop ups and may even have links to malware - be CAREFUL!  I try to test my links each week before posting but make no promises.  My twitter is @bbgossip - follow me.

Option 2: Check out USTVNOW - I wrote up a very detailed article years ago - my account still works - I've never been charged a dime (they can't - they don't have any personal info from me): READ ABOUT IT HERE. This option allows mobile viewing from the 1st 30 days or so, so you should be able to watch on your phone or tablet as long as the site isn't overwhelmed.

Option 3: Use you CBS All Access account (yes you need to have one for this) and with a firefox browser plug-in you can fake your location so CBS thinks you are in, say, New York, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Indianapolis, etc.  You will be able to watch the show live with the rest of us.  This one takes a bit of work (you need to install a plug-in and use Firefox) - details can be found on this post.

Big Brother Gossip #811: Rebel Without a Clue

What do you do with a Big Brother contestant whose only game move this season, besides eating cereal and doing unmentionable things to Raven, is to not follow Have-Not rules? Yep, we're talking about Matt, one of the most useless castmembers in quite some time.

A game move was made against him so what did he do? This tough guy with Boyz II Men lyrics tattooed on his arm got his revenge by flaunting the rules of the game. Yes, Big Brother has rules. And yet the powers that be did absolutely nothing against him. In the long run, it really doesn't matter. He was evicted, as was his desire, and his ueseless girlfriend remains in the house.

We spend quite some time talking about this, along with the other weirdness that happened this year. Like, for example, how a woman with a broken foot was able to win a racing competition. Like how at the final 7 portion of the show people are still volunteering to be nominated. Or how the nominees were openly discussing throwing the POV competition to the game's "mastermind".

Tonight's show was so much fun, even if we may be struck down for some of our commentary.

Possible Schedule For Last 3 Weeks

Edit: Julie Chen basically confirmed what I've stated in this post, particularly about the double eviction. However, what I have down as the Sunday, September 17 HOH/clip show will actually be shown on Friday, September 15 due to the Emmys being broadcast on CBS that Sunday night.

We're finally getting down to the end, and there's a lot of confusion over how this is going to work. I've spent the day looking at the calendar, along with the format of the past few seasons, to create a bit of a timeline as to these last three weeks. (And I have not listened to an of Paul's erroneous predictions.)

Thursday's eviction will get us down to seven people, which is one more than necessary if they continue with that special surprise midweek eviction that tends to happen to get to the final four. It should also be noted that there are no timeslot conflicts with the NFL this year, as the first CBS-aired Thursday night game isn't until September 28.

Here's what you should expect:

Thursday, August 31 - normal eviction to get down to F7 (as noted).

Thursday, September 7 - double eviction that puts us at F5.

Wednesday, September 13 - "surprise" eviction actually recorded the previous day. Feeds will go down early Tuesday morning, and won't come back on until after Wednesday's broadcast.

Thursday, September 14 - last regular eviction of the season that creates the F3. First part of the final set of HOH competitions will commence.

Friday, September 15 - First HOH competition shown, plus another clip show where the final three reminisce about the season.

Wednesday, September 20 - Finale. Final 2 HOH competitions shown, along with last eviction. Jury deliberations, jury questions, and various other hijinks before votes are cast for this year's winner.

All of this could change, though, if CBS decides to do something about the "Matt situation". In case you're not aware, in protest of Jason not using the POV to save Raven, Matt has decided to ignore all of "have-not" rules for the week. He's been given a penalty vote, but is it possible they will "Chima" him?

Big Brother Gossip #810: Thinking With My Weiner

Once again, this could have been a short show but something happened that broadened the conversation for a few hours. Who knew that a couple of little hinky votes could have changed the course of the week?

The story begins on Thursday night when Alex and Jason threw a couple of votes to evict Matt. Normally this would cause some consternation, but it ended up dominating the conversaton for a good portion of the last 48 hours.

Of course, that's not all that happened this week. Jason's win in the "Hot Dog" endurance competition meant that for the first time this season they would actually have to "eat their own". Who would he go for? Matt and Raven? Josh and Christmas? Or go for the easy choice of lone wolf Kevin?

This week was also great for the fact that the house finally woke up to the psychotic behavior of Raven. Each and every person in the house now has their own reason to roll their eyes whenever she speaks. This week she claimed that Dom made some comments about how she could have Matt if she wanted. They also covered their ears when she shrieked that the food pantry had been restocked. They're all ready for her to be gone, and so is the vast majority of the online crowd.

Big Brother Gossip #809: Rat Trap

Tonight should have been a 30 minute show. With the feeds down for the most important 30 hours of the week it becomes a struggle to put together a full-length show.

Yet enough interesting things happened that we were able to produce a lively look at this past week in the Big Brother house. We covered Alex turning into a complete lunatic and going after Cody for innocuous things such as cereal and Bible reading. We also looked at the continuing demonization of Kevin for having the audacity to talk to people on the "banned list". We also can't help but laugh at Christmas acting like she just walked off the set of "Empire".

Double eviction was also an important part of tonight's show, and we went over the highlights. Or should I say lowlights? It was an episode that went over like a lead balloon for all of us looking for any sort of change of power. We want a revolution, and we want it now!!!

Most importantly, there was a new house guest this week! He's not exactly a welcome guest, but he certainly created a disturbance in the house! (And no, I'm not talking about Derrick's visit.)

How Tonight's Big Brother 19 Double Eviction and Friday will work.

I'm completely cheating here as I am lifting my content from a Big Brother 16 post to explain tonight's Double Eviction.

Here are the basics of how tonight's show should go:

1. Recaps for 10-12 minutes. 

2. Julie will chat with the house guests and we’ll see Matt, Elana and Cody's “save me” speeches. (Extra propz to any of them if they would simply stand up, say “Hi Mom & Dad!”, and sit right back down.) Julie will also mention, to feigned surprise, that it’s a double eviction night.

3. Unanimous eviction vote (yawn) and Julie’s interview with Cody by about 25 minutes after the hour.

4. An HOH comp lasting three to six minutes. (If you Expect the Expected, as we all now do for #BB19, the winner will be anyone but Elana or Mark since they would shake up the house.)

5. Strategizing for a couple of minutes, and then nominations.

6. POV comp.

7. Strategizing again, veto meeting, and potential replacement nomination.

8. “Save me” speeches, the second elimination vote, and Julie’s second interview of the night. And then Julie signs off.

Feeds will then remain off until 9pm Pacific on Friday (12am ET Saturday) and when they return we should have a new HoH and two nominees.  Last year the feeds returned about 4am Pacific so I personally am quite annoyed that we are being kept in the 'dark' for an additional 20 hours since everything that happens on Friday after the HoH will be condensed into snippets on Sunday's show.

As always we will have our LIVE podcast on Saturday so tune in then to hear about everything that happened on Friday and Saturday and anything that went on earlier in the week that CBS didn't cover that we feel is worth mentioning.  You can find out more about the Big Brother Gossip Show at www.bigbrotherpodcast.com.
