Some are speculating she wasn't in the DR the whole time but may have left to see a doctor. Supposedly she was allowed to bring meds into the House with her, when usually they must be distributed my the DR folks, ever since someone??? was being a pharmacist ITH. I question that she has meds on her though.

I'm glad they still nommed her, because I would suspect there was pressure not to - except if BB thinks she will pull thru enough to meet Julie...well, damn. Maybe they promised that after the live vote she could dramatically exit via the DR instead of coming out to see Julie. That kind of live drama could work if she plays along enough. Then Julie can interview the HG about the situation? Or.....jump right into an endurance HoH and show more of it on TV....those can run as long as production needs.

I do feel sorry for Audrey. BB really does not seem to do well with stunt casting+psych evals.

It amuses me how Audrey came in with all of this bravado about how she was doing something great for the transgender community and now it seems she's playing the cowardly lion. roar.

I question whether or not she was in DR the whole time too. When she came back she had a small brown paper bag and set it in the dentist chair, it sounded like pills rattling around in a bottle when she put it down but we never saw anything to prove if it was or not. Several other hgs talked about them giving her meds so maybe they saw it or maybe they are just speculating thats what happened. Who knows....

Very curious how they will handle the situation Thurs. Maybe early pre-taped eviction with a CBS audience so they can guarantee she will get a positive reaction. Her edit up to this point has been very favorable so it will be quite strange for show only viewers unless they spend a good part of Weds. show going back and showing some of her craziness.

She was up and in DR first thing after wake-up time this morning, not a long stay this time (more meds?) and then back to bed. Becky did confirm she ate some of an omelette James made for her this morning.

They handled the Audrey exit pretty well. Interestingly they didnt show the whole house meeting but they didnt try to sugarcoat Audreys actions either. Pretty fair edit on the whole thing. Glad they gave her the penalty vote, the hamsters were very touchy about that the last couple days. She was blatantly breaking the rules not only with the eating but also hot showers, sleeping on the floor and with the lights out during the day. I do wonder if they had the visit with her family planned before the meltdown or if that was part of the deal to get her to stay.

Big group plan taking shape to try and backdoor Austin. He threw Julia under the bus to Jason in order to try and make sure he makes it to jury with his beloved Liz then lied to Vanessa about it. So he is now public enemy #1 since Jackie already doesnt like him either. Looks like as of now noms will be Van-Becky/Clay and Jackie-Liz/James with James begrudgingly agreeing to throw it. Everyone is in on the plan except Austin, Steve, John, and JuLiz though Van did hint to Julia that it might be beneficial to her if Austin left and she told her that Austin threw her under the bus in favor of her sister.

I agree the BB edit for Audrey was pretty fair, given the amount of time they had to explain the whole mess.

I like Austin, though I'm hearing feedsters comparing him to Caleb, so the show will now have to ratchet up all the background on that situation if he is nominated. (That's the main problem imo with the week long blackout from the feeds and all the comp time - the show is always playing catchup on the main narrative for the target since it hasn't been able to develop multiple storylines.)

At some point, throwing BoB is going to backfire on someone. I could see James saying he will throw it and then winning anyway.

Did you have your crystal ball out when you predicted the throwing of BOB would backfire...because it did lol. James attempted to throw it but failed. Clay and Becky lost and Vanessa remains HOH. Sounds like Liz won almost by herself it was something to do with paint and spelling out houseguests names from last season. Dummy Clay didnt understand the comp (so he says) not sure what Beckys excuse was. Liz knows James threw it but everyone is denying it. Plan is still in place to bd Austin with whoever wins veto using it to take Clay down. If Austin gets picked and wins they are saying Steve is plan B but I'm not sure Vanessa will follow through with that. Austin has NO idea he is in jeopardy.

As a huge wrestling fan (yes thats my guilty pleasure since i was a kid lol) I was familiar with Austin before the season started so I was hoping he would do well. The more i watch him though the more he annoys me. He understands the game, he just doesnt understand how to actually play it. I get why some are comparing him to Caleb and it is kind of like that with his clingy-ness but the difference is Liz is a very willing participant. Its clear to us that shes really not that into him but she is leading him on so hard he just doesnt realize it. She has admitted she does kind of like him but its more game on her part and i think he is already planning the wedding. Its pretty much a full blown showmance now. Pretty funny since he was basically the last to know they were two different people. He seems almost resentful of Julia now.

What about his girlfriend-outside-the-house? 'On a break'?...

I know next to nothing about wrestling, but one of my friends plays a manager in this group... http://prowrestling.wikia.com/wiki/Future_Stars_Of_Wrestling

His story about her keeps changing. First it was I have a girlfriend, then it was open relationship, now it is she didnt approve of him going on the show so when he left they pretty much broke up. The closer he gets to Liz the more he is distancing himself from being in a relationship. In his hoh letter his family said she sent her love. A few days ago someone claiming to be the girlfriends sister posted on twitter that she (the girlfriend) was heartbroken over his actions with Liz and that she was now done with him.

Cool I've seen a little bit of FSW. I'm a total wrestling geek!

So, Vanessa thinks if Austin wins Veto they can get him to use it on Clay or Becky? um..... I hope he does win it just to see what happens next.

My FSW friend is 'Sal E. Dynasty'...

Cheating is wrong (duh), but I definitely understand the isolation making for people developing big crushes... I think Austin seeming to resent Julia or being bummed when it's her turn in the house is very funny...

Sal E does alot of their commentary and promo stuff too. Very cool.

Austin didnt get picked for veto but Van was going to tell him to throw it if he was playing. He had told Clay he would use it on him.

Clay won the veto. Vanessa told Austin he is the target, hes scrambling overtime now trying to save himself.

Vanessa has hoh-itis. I like Van but when she gets power she just doesnt stop. I need a nap after just listening to her.

Austin's moves in Sunday's show were seriously stupid, and it's logical that he's the target now.

BOB comp with the paint and letter scrambling was fun... Especially cool that it was down to about a second, and the whole 'plan' went awry...

Except now hes not the target anymore lol.

This is the biggest bunch of flip floppers.....Shelli/Clay (with help from Steve) finally realized that without Austin the numbers get a little closer for the other side and maybe its not so smart to vote Austin out yet. So now Van is doing the same thing she did with Jeff and shes getting the others to help her manufacture a new target. Now shes looking at Jason as the replacement nom. In exchange for Van changing her mind Austin will have to volunteer to go on the block basically whenever they ask him to.

Vans antics are getting on my nerves but this could cause some real fireworks if it happens. Finally summer camp will be over and there will be a clear line drawn between the sides of the house. Granted I dont see the James/Meg/Jackie/Becky side being much competition for the other side but I'm bored with the whole house alliances.

I haven't followed Austin's possible demise at all online, but what I saw on the Sunday show made me think that ultimately Vanessa would find a way to keep him off the block since it helps her, as an individual, to have him with her. It seemed more that the finagling was to make it so she didn't get too much 'blood on her hands' with the House in case Jackie remained HoH.

I think Van was more than willing to sacrifice Austin and let Jackie be the one to do it. When that plan failed is when she realized keeping him around was better for her. Especially after telling Liz Austin tried to sacrifice Julia, Liz didnt really care much so that caused Van to start to rethink the numbers. When Shelli/Clay/Steve came to her is when she really switched. They wanted Jackie to be the bd though, not Jason.

Lots of drama after the ceremony today. Everyone in a tizzy. Meg crying, Jason bitching, Shelli/Clay denying everything, James buying Vans excuses, Austin/Liz happy as clams, Jackie mad, Becky pretending she had no idea, Steve creeping around, John sleeping.

Bobcat Goldthwait! That's whose voice that John's annoying DR voice reminds me of. It's taken me weeks to finally figure that out. HA!

Does he talk like that when having normal conversations with the other hamsters? I still can't imagine having him as a dentist, lol.

No not in normal conversations. He only uses that voice if he gets amped up about something or if hes doing "story time". He does improv stories to amuse the other hamsters and that voice does frequently come out during those. Otherwise he is very quiet and reserved and sleeps most of the time lol.

Do you think the ones who sleep most of the time are somewhat depressed, jbrr? I know it's probably boring in there but I wonder if the ones who sleep a lot are doing that in their normal lives. I'm probably just projecting, as I tend to sleep more when I'm more depressed.

I'd die without my cats.
I'd miss going on-line something fierce, of course. No pen and paper...

I'd play chess. I've learned-and-then-forgotten-how-to-play-twice, but if in the BB house...
I'd work out. Be in the pool whenever I could.
Attempt a showmance or two.
Try to entertain the feedsters the best I could.

I think in some cases there is a depression factor. I dont see it with John, i think he is just bored and on a summer vacation from a high stress job. There have been hgs in the past though that i have thought that (mcrae, jen city etc). When i was going through serious depression several years ago i slept 18 hrs a day so yeah thats for sure a symptom i had too.

Sleeping habits in the bb house are very weird between late night scheming, naps, bb waking them up at different times, boredom, and the lights being on whenever someone is awake it has to mess with your internal wiring. This group stays up especially late.

I would probably be a sleeper in there. The boredom and lack of tv/internet would make me crazy and probably my depression tendencies would return. After you get to know everyone the first month or so theres not much left to talk about except game talk and to much of that gets you in trouble.

Veto comp... Always fun to see them doing that frustrating ramp exercise, and the squirrel outfits are a nice layer of cruelty...

The BOB paint flinging thing was fun the other night, too.

James is HOH. Final 3 was James, Shelli, John. Lasted about 2 hrs. Nothing really happening now just catching Julia up on everything she missed and general chit chat. John seems to have a little crush on Julia. Austin acting weird and uncomfortable around Julia, she hates him. Everyone secretly wondering what James will do.

Oh the drama of Big Brother.......this is when it gets fun!

Clay/Shelli on the block and they are very angry. Of course they blame Vanessa for "making them evict Jason" and they blame Austin because they went along with saving him. They conveniently forget that they were the driving force behind saving Austin and they could have voted for Jason. How dare "the other side" even consider the idea of splitting them up before jury.....oh the horror lol. Vanessa is not having their hysterics and everytime they start whining to her about how unfair it is she gets loud and storms off, lots of waterworks and trash talk ensues. Eventually they all apologize and then we do it all again a few hours later after the lovebirds have more time to stew and console each other and Vanessa has more time to talk game with everyone else. Should be a fun veto comp!

Dead thread... Funny, even though jbr wrote 'this is when it gets fun' in her last post... That was twelve days ago.

I don't really have anything to say... It's neither really exciting or really boring to me, but on the nights when my job was super-taxing (school uniform sales during back-to-school season), I'm glad to have something as 'easy'/dumb as BB to watch as a palette cleanser before something 'good' that I really need to pay full attention to...

LOL yeah this thread died so i kinda forgot about updating it.

The scheming has been at an all time high since Vanessa went on the block. Shes not subtle but she is effective. I want to smack Becky in the face like the train did lol. The vote is still kind of up in the air though it looks like Shelli will be the one to go and Becky is losing her mind over it. The goblins (Meg, James, Jackie) learned from Van that Becky was playing both sides so they dont really care that she wants Van out because they are more scared of Shelli. Steve has turned on Van and her on him (they had a long standing secret final 2 deal) though neither knows it and since nobody knows they were working together to begin with its kind of funny but a moot point. John is on borrowed time without a win he could be the 2nd to go in the DE tomorrow. Nobody wants to take a shot at the Austwins, I cant figure out why, silly hamsters. This group makes me tired just listening to them round and round we go.

Live show is pre-empted here due to football.

I've been half heartedly watching, not really checking out news. I did see some info about the flip flipping over Van/Shelli and that Shelli (at least Monday) wasn't campaigning because 'the deal was Van was going... Will she have Dustin-face?

These are not the worst HG ever...as a group mostly more likeable than many casts in the past, but there aren't any players I REALLY like, so I've been indifferent. I wonder if it's a chicken-egg thing...I don't watch BBAD, read daily recaps, so I don't really like anyone...or, I don't like anyone much so I don't watch BBAD/read.... :D
