Last night on Big Brother 17 the Houseguests faced a Double Eviction challenge where two more Houseguests were eliminated as we watched what was another exciting and surprising live show.

Heading in to last night’s events the House had nearly unified to vote out Shelli, who started out as a pawn for Becky, but soon became the real target when Vanessa found surprising support in the Goblins alliance. But what will happen in Round Two? It’s time to find out.

Julie announced to the Houseguests at the start of the show that they’re about to hit a Double Eviction and the race will be off. A quick eviction vote followed by a new Head of Household comp, nominations, Veto comp and Ceremony, and finally a second eviction.

We recapped the whole show live here so read on through all the fun then be sure to join us on Facebook and Twitter for even more post-show updates from the Feeds.

Julie reminds the HGs the evictees may have a chance to get back in the game as they prepare to vote.

Big Brother 17 Week 7 Votes:

  • Austin votes to evict: Shelli
  • Steve votes to evict: Shelli
  • James votes to evict: Shelli
  • Meg votes to evict: Shelli
  • Jackie votes to evict: Shelli
  • That’s enough votes. It’s official.
  • Julia votes to evict: Shelli
  • John votes to evict: Shelli
  • Liz votes to evict: Shelli

By a vote of 8-0, Shelli Poole has been evicted.

The remaining nine HGs, not counting Becky as the outgoing HoH, will head in to the backyard to compete for the next HoH. HGs were shown a series of video clips and we expect that will be the Q&A source tonight.

  1. I hope that JMac wins the second HoH comp and put on the block Vanessa and James or Vanessa and Liz.

  3. Does anyone know where I can live stream online? I am in Canada and the website I normally use is blocked by NFL! Pls help me out!

  4. Little do you guys know that Vanessa flipped the house on Tuesday. They CAN change their minds, though. I hope they keep Vanessa!

  5. I wanna see the evil Steve from last night win HoH. ..”Steve’s Revenge”. lol that would be the most interesting week.

      • Even Derrick said he’s smart, and we know he can win Comp when he wants to. I agree.. Imagine him talking to the camera for every move he makes..lol..that’s like watching 1 week of psycho movie”

      • He is a bit on the weird side, but there is no doubt in anybody’s mind that he is a very smart guys. Genius are always a bit weird.

      • Good one, but last night Steven reminded me of the doctor from “Re – Animator”! If Vanessa stays it’s the “end of days” for the rest of the HG starting with…………………………James. Nobody 4 EVER!!!

  9. Can’t wait to see who wins HOH for the DE. Hoping its JMac. Maybe then I’ll get a better idea of who is going to stick with who.

  11. Woohoo thanks for the updates! I have to head into work so I cannot watch it live, but I will be checking back here constantly :)

      • I got kicked out of class in 10th grade for ‘instigating sarcasm’…can you believe that?

      • Ha, ha… you’re getting better at this, you lied but then you ruined it TELLING US you lied.

        But the night turned out WORSE… w/Steve (the dud) winning HOH, noms Meg/Jackie, JMac wins Veto & keeps noms same (apparently Steve had him to that, just guessing) and Jackie’s out. HO HUM had to rewind 3 times to see the whole thing, kept falling asleep.

        Wish now I hadn’t recorded it. LOL!!! There was nothing exciting and I was expecting a great DE.

  14. James is right about a “rat” in the group, “smiles on que manipulator” Meg! Mark my words. Nobody 4 LATER!!!

  25. If Vanessa wins the HoH……………..it’s over for everone! All this over a T – shirt, James (dummy). Nobody 4 LESS!!!

  57. So what happened to Steve going after Becky? Backdoor? What are the chances that either Meg or Jackie can win POV?

  63. The only way my beautiful goblins can stay is if one of them win, and Becky is the re-nom. Ahhh, let’s hope. If not, Jackie is most likely to go, since they’ll want to keep Meg till the end for an easy win.

  67. If Steve really wants to go after Vanessa, that’s putting a lot of faith in someone winning the veto who will pull one of these two off. What a waste.

  69. It sucks that the one time Steve wins HOH, it had to be during a DE. I’m doneeeeeee right now.

    • I want Vanessa gone. They should of voted her out when the had the chance.i was so mad that they flipped.

  73. I think James is the target. When they came back from commercial, Steve was walking back and Vanessa was not in the room. He told Mac he was going after that crew earlier.m

  79. Steve tries to play the loveable loser, but you can tell he’s an absolute scumbag. he is the least likeable person in the house.

  89. I don’t think John will use it, especially since Steve pulled him aside to talk to him.

  94. These two outcasts/jerks finally get a bit of power and they go after people who are not coming for them. Pathetic.

    But hey whoever leaves tonight has a chance to return so I hope John and Steve will be held accountable tonight.

    Cbs I’m sure helped Steve and John study and gave John some kind of advantage in Veto.

  95. This season has been a bust ever since Day and Jason got evicted. The feeds are so boring. No wonder this has been dubbed the worst season ever.

  108. Huh… Steve being mean to them noms? I don’t get it… John looking really angry? Becky crying? I’m really confused on the ”behind the scenes” stuff right now….

  112. Way to waste a HOH, Steve. You get out a power play, super fan. Yeesh. . Did the orange tell you to?

    • Hi Sharona! You are absolutely right!

      This is ridiculous, isn’t it? Steve is a big jerk! And John is a Wimp

      • Why because he got rid of Jackie? Steve wasn’t in that alliance. Smart move for Steve. And he’s got the head mistress protecting him.

      • Not really. Steve hates Becky, as we all know. And also, as we all know, Becky is John’s closest friend and ally. Considering how perceptive John’s been over the last week, I’m sure he realized that if he used the Veto, there was a strong chance that Becky would be the replacement, and then she would be screwed. And by extension, HE would be screwed.

        I put this all on Steve. Whatever the heck was going through his mind when he put up Meg and Jackie, it certainly wasn’t something smart.

      • I’m just curious why you think it wasn’t a good move? Steve wasn’t in their alliance so why make an enemy out of John when they’ve been working together by putting Becky up. I think he made a smart move.

      • Because if Becky was clearly his target (which, let’s face it, she was), why not just throw her right on the block? DE is not the time to backdoor someone, it’s when you hit your target with everything you’ve got. Not to put up two weak players and then hope that the POV King doesn’t get chosen to protect his main ally.

        Steve didn’t make any friends with this move. He angered what was left of the Goblins, and the rest of the house is just as alienated from him as before, if not more so, considering how universal the confusion around his nominations was. All Steve did was make himself a target.

      • What are you talking about? Steve has more than half the house on his side. He’s been working with Vanessa, Austin and the twins since week two. He’s also been working with JMac. They were talking last night and JMac said if either won go after the gremlins. Maybe he changed his mind and didn’t want to backdoor Becky. Didn’t you see JMac and Steve talking right before the POV ceremony tonight? They decided together.

  115. The comments are coming fast and furious! :) Did anyone catch why Steve walked off? Bye Jackie!

    • He has to compose himself. Think he’s checking with production to see if he can pull both off block and put up Vanessa

  116. I think both JohnnyMac and Steve just sealed their fates with Becky and James. Maybe even with Austin as well.

      • I forgot to mention that Becky would have hoped the same thing that James was hoping for. A bigger target but with JohnnyMac not using the VETO, there would be no bigger target and now Becky will have to see who wins the next HOH and see if she then goes up on the block.

      • James would have expected JohnnyMac to remove one of the girls in hopes that a bigger target would go up and make his choice in evicting someone that much easier.

      • Kind of threw you for a loop did it? OK, Austin was looking forward to working with James,Meg and Jackie. This threw a wrinkle in his plan as well. I hope this helps you out a little.

      • Austin wasn’t looking forward to working with James, Meg and Jackie. Austwins were secretly planning their demise. Steve did Austwins’ dirty work for them.

      • I think if given the chance, Austin would have put them on the block. However, he was wanting to work with them long enough to get Vanessa out the door. This is what I was referring too.

  120. Does Steve and Johnny Mac realize that there will be a new HOH by the time tonight is over and it won’t be them.

  126. They are going to regret not evicting Vanessa when they had the chance. Steve wasted his nominations as Jackie and Meg are not a threat at all. For someone who claims to be a huge fan of BB, he is a moron.

    • Eh Steve thinks he and Vanessa are tight so this makes sense . Why get rid of an ally when you can get rid of a non ally

      • That’s fine if you just want $50K. Maybe he thinks he’ll win against her because she’s disliked?
        Or maybe he wants her to protect him for a few more weeks to eliminate Becky, James & Meg?
        He may be hoping she and Jmac come together. Idk what he’s thinking.

      • I thought Steve asked JohnnyMac to wait until jury house to get with becky??? Which I didn’t understand at the time

      • Has she promised him that? It’s probably her plan. No one will vote for him over her.

      • But she is dead weight . Evicting Shelli wasn’t stupid but not keeping Jackie sure was

      • I don’t understand James or Jmacs vote tonight. Jmac votes to evict one of his only allies and James votes to keep a useless person lol
        Well I said I wanted drama…..

      • If you want drama wednesday nights on A&E 9:30/8:30 CST watch wahlburgers johnny drama usually makes an appearance lol sorry couldn’t resist plenty of drama in the last 2 weeks alone on BB

      • Evicting Shelli was stupid when he could of gotten rid of Vanessa. She’s going to win now because they’ll never be able to get rid of her.

      • I agree with you. Jackie was a way better player than Meg will ever be. With that said, he was thinking with his heart and emotions more than game play go figure.

  129. These are the stupidest house guests ever, honestly Van is the only one who deserves to win

  135. These idiots had THREE chances to either evict or nominate Vanessa and went 0-for-3. They deserve what they get and now we get to listen to her whiny, non-stop babble for another week.

    • I dig it though because at this point, after you’ve had the chance to evict Freddie Krueger but don’t, it’s kind of fun to watch what happens next.

    • Lol at this point I wouldn’t even be mad if Vanessa wins. If you are able to manipulate people this well, you deserve to win.

  136. I can’t believe James voted out Jackie. You get rid of the weaker player in your alliance James!!!

  138. Did anyone notice Becky with her head in her hands when JMac said he wasn’t using the veto?

  142. Well….I called it and I hate that I did. The double elimination seems to always get someone out of left field evicted. Meg has to be a pawn and Steve will now commence to say he made a HUGE move in Big Brother because in his delusional world he is THE Big Brother player to beat…

    • Steve has no thought process, If the guy only had a brain not strategic in anyway. This was not even personal it was nothing and Johnny what are u thinking nothing.

      • In a way I can forgive John. He had to make a decision without a lot of time to think about the consequences. No action at all leaves him in a good spot, again, considering how quick this went tonight

  144. I think it’s despicable that people have been saying they hate James who has served in the military and was a police officer, yet they love a doofus, Beavis/Butthead jerk dentist like JohnnyWack.

      • I don’t think it’s right for anyone to say they hate someone who has been in the military. But it sounds like you don’t have any morals. So whatever

      • This might be the least intelligent sentence I’ve read in months. There are Pah-LENTY of terrible people who deserve our contempt who were or are in the military.

      • Considering you can’t spell plenty I say it’s your post that is the least intelligent post I’ve read.

      • It’s how she’s feeling tonight. She has a right to her opinion, and obviously it’s a strong one. We ALL have strong opinions in this game.

      • I’m all for that. We all like and dislike certain house guests. But opinions about the game are a whole different thing than casting negative aspersions about other members of this forum.

      • I understand where you’re coming from. But I have to defend RhondaK. AllNewSophie, I’ve had really Sh*tty days, and I’ve allowed those to color how I speak on these forums. I don’t take what anyone says (other than trolls) personally…just as I would hope that no one would take mine personally. Just sayin’…RhondaK, I get where you’re coming from, honey.

      • I agree that we all have bad days. Absolutely! I would just hope we can all be respectful and not be personal in our responses to other people’s legitimate questions.

      • Ha, I’m proud of you Sharona – yes it is important to defend those (even if they’re wrong in their approach towards others). If we don’t defend the right to speak freely we are indeed lost as a society… In this case however Rhonda really did come out swinging hard with some pretty strong language (and a misspelled word she later edited and claimed it was spelled correctly from the beginning).. Now do we burn her alive for this? Of course not. But when I tried to extend to her the courtesy of saying the military is an understandably sensitive topic she came at me hard also… Again, she has the right to spit in my face when I was trying to give her a way out from all the arrows coming at her, but at the same time, it won’t really make her a likeable person either… As Dr.Phil famously says: ”When you choose the behaviour, you also choose the consequence”

      • Matthew, you did NOT just quote Dr. Phil!!! A TV psychologist?! All kidding aside; I realize RhondaK was shooting hard tonight. But, I’ve been in her place. It HURTS. I don’t know why the subject is so sensitive to her—none of my business—but there is a reason. I HAVE to give people the benefit of the doubt—particularly as many have noted, this is not typical behavior from her. We don’t know what happened in her life today. Even if it’s NOTHING that we can understand, RhondaK has her reasons. I honestly don’t think she meant to hurt the folks in our forum…and even if she did, I’ve seen a heck of a lot worse things said. So, I stand by my defense of her….even if it make ME a less likeable person. “Empathy goes a long way.” (Dr. Sharona)

      • I definitely hear you, but I would never say the attacker should receive more nurturing than the attacked…so while I agree with you that Rhonda deserves grace, I think we should also never lose sight that it was Sophie who was attacked. Gosh you’ve seen me come to people’s defense all the time when they are misunderstood on here, but at the same time when somebody is verbally attacked, they need to know they will be defended.

      • Matt, I came back to re-read the comments. They’ve been deleted, so I can’t comment on what was said to Sophie. I apologize to you, Sophie and all the other folks on the forum if it seemed as if I was attacking and defending someone who actually did attack your integrity.

      • lol – no no you’re fine (no need to apologize to me)… And like I said, I actually agree with you that she deserved to be given grace (it actually made me think ever more highly of you!) ;) I just hope that neither of them walked away feeling as if anything said was so hurtful that they wouldn’t come back.

      • Sophie, I came back here to re-read all the comments, but I see the that those I was looking for have been deleted. If you were personally attacked, I apologize for standing against you.

      • Rhonda, are you out there? It’s Friday…just want to check in on you. Let me know if you’re OK.

      • WTF RhondaK. I think you are letting your emotions about tonight’s show get you a little too worked up. You don’t know a frickin thing about my morals (that’s the correct spelling, btw), so please don’t launch that kind of personal attack.

      • No, you spelled it with an E after the L. That is incorrect. Morale is like the morale of the officers. But more importantly, I was not angry. I simply asked if we are supposed to like or dislike people based on their professions. How is that angry?

      • Um, to quote you verbatim: “I don’t think it’s right for anyone to say they hate someone who has
        been in the military. But it sounds like you don’t have any morales. So
        whatever”

        But whatever. Take a deep breath, count to ten, and maybe take a bubble bath. And for the record, I am actually a James fan (although I don’t think he made a smart move in flipping). I am not, however, a RhondaK fan.

      • Hey Rhonda, it does sound like somebody has maybe touched a sensitive topic on the whole military thing – but you seem to be acting out of character tonight… Hopefully you’re ok (or of course there’s the chance somebody has hacked your account)… Either way, I hope you’re ok. :)

      • Some of you guys are truly nuts. And need help.

        But that’s ok it’s a waste of time trying to impart some critical thinking on this board.

        Sharona and red roses, Ksl, Andy, and a few others actually have some sense!

      • RhondaK is “Yo”
        That much is clear. Nonsensical, hateful statements with no logic that look like they were written by a petulant 6th grader.

      • I’ve seen a few “different” posters who all happen to be saying the same thing with the same immature language. It’s possible there are multiple immature people who think alike, but I’m guessing they’re all the same person.

      • I’m pretty suspicious of this myself. And of course, I should know better than to jump down that rabbit hole.

      • To me, a part of critical thinking is choosing to like or dislike people based on their personalities and actions, not whether or not they’ve served in the military.

      • I’m sorry you feel that way. I think some of the people on here (incl you) are some of the most awesome people with great perspectives… My hope however is that people learn to express themselves in a respectful manner

      • For the record, MattS, I have no opinion whatsoever on the liking or hating people based on their military service. I simply asked if we are to like or dislike people based on their professions. No comment on said professions, whether military, dentists, or otherwise.

      • Oh my you too Sophie? What’s going on tonight? I didn’t say anything about anything you said – I simply wanted Rhonda to know that if the military is a sensitive topic (which it is for a lot of people one way or the other) I can respect it and understand why it would upset people… If you knew me and followed my comments on here over the years you’d see that I’m usually the one leading with questions on why people feel the need to ”hate” anyone (military, dentists, poor people…etc) I try to remind people that this is just a game show (keyword ”show”) and shouldn’t ever become so important as to turn people against each otehr (like you & Rhnda)… I think you’re both awesome people from what I’ve read previously and would hate to see either of you leave our community…

      • Oh no no, Matt. I just didn’t want you to think that I provoked RhondaK in some way. So I was just intending to set the record straight on the comment I posted that seemed to incite this weirdness. I am not at all familiar with this person in this forum, so I don’t know if the questioning of my morals is a typical response from her, but I did feel it was not justified given my post. And yes, I have noticed that you foster a positive attitude on these threads, which is great!

    • Military, Police? Officer, Likes killing things?
      Yeah, lets keep him for that. It doesn’t matter that he sucks at the game, but he has a gun, so we should keep him …

  145. The gremlins were too cocky. They were getting Vanessa out on DE. Yep that worked real well for them didn’t it.

    • They may have just woken up Meg in this game now. Or James will come back and take the next HOH and then we will see who really has balls. Although, I didn’t see Van and the Austwins jumping for joy either at the end of the show.

  146. Hate, hate Liz. . Did you see the way she smugly gave her vote? They will be sorry not getting Vanessa or Liz out.

  150. Steve is the biggest idiot I ever seen in the history of Big Brother this guy and Johnny Mac are the most stupid players I ever laid eyes on no clue no brains.

  151. I think big brother 17 is the worst season ever you get a guy like steve did nothing all season and all the sudden wins pov and hoh in the same week show is totally fixed

  154. Can’t believe Vanessa is still there. Like I’ve said before, give her the $500,000 now. Stop pumping in the ‘stupid gas’…she’s achieved her goal. Just a matter of time before she takes the money home.

    • Frankie didn’t win last year so I doubt Vanessa will. The twins and Austin will get rid of her sooner or later if James and Becky don’t try again.

  156. This has been HYSTERICAL to read unfold. People get soooo incredibly emotional and angry about it. It’s fantastic!

  157. The looney tune is still in the house weaving her evil, but is falsely using the BIBLE, The nerve

    • When she placed her vote to evict Jackie I seriously said “ugh what a bitch!” out loud to the TV. She can go now.

  159. Well now it’s Vanessa, Austin the twins and Steve against Meg and Jackie. Let’s see if Austin sticks with James now. Like I said big mistake not getting Vanessa out. She’s going to unfortunately win.

  160. Vanessa needs to go, she is the only person I cannot stand who hasn’t left yet, it almost feels like CBS handpicked her to win this season by some of the talk going on. naturally, I’ll be against her in every scenario and take anyone over her at this point in the game.

    • Her fake sad look when Jackie left was so obnoxious. I’m sure she told Steve to put them up. He will regret his choices once Vanessa is finally out.

  161. this is the most racist cast. First they get rid of the black person, now the mexican person. James better watch out. This cast is racist.

  162. Karma for not voting Vanessa out.
    I loved Kim Kartrashian wannabe and I hope that she comes back into the game.
    Steve is one of the dumbest players in BB history. I hope Vanessa and him go home soon. If James doesn’t win HOH the goblins will be history.
    I dislike Austin and hope the twins betray him in the worst way since they have already talked about it.

  163. Hate to say it but Vanessa deserves to win at this point. The HGs have not been bright but she manages to get through.

  164. How was that good for Steve’s game. He says constantly how much he hates Becky how she is going for him and he is going for her. If he wants to get her out why not get her out?

      • Or Austin he hates Austin and that would have made sense putting up meg and jackie has no logic to it.

      • The only sense I can see in it is that he nominated two people with few allies. I mean, who’s going to fight to avenge Jackie’s eviction besides Meg and James?

    • I think he was going after Becky and asked John to use the veto BUT Becky is John ally and he decided against it. Steve was shocked at what John did.

  165. You have to give this season some credit: it’s certainly unpredictable.

    I didn’t see ANY scenario with both Becky and JMac surviving the night, yet here we are.

  166. “Stevie? You can either evict Satan or Cancer! Who do you choose?”

    Steve: “Pudding!”

  168. Dont like Van but she not stupid like the rest…I mean she’s the only player left who is deserving

  169. Am I the only one that was praying for John to freeze the noms? Becky would’ve gone home if he used it

  171. Being the super fan that he is, I thought steve would go after the twins……And why the hell did John vote to get rid of Shelli? I thought she was his allie. Who does he have now except steve?

  172. I actually am rooting for Vanessa, yes she whines but she is a very smart and logical player. Its strategy, i would cry too if it helped my game. People need to give her more credit!

    • Oh I agree with you.
      Problem is with her emotions.
      She can’t control them.
      That’s the only issue

    • Although I hate her she is the best player. All of the crying isn’t strategy though I believe she has actually lost it. She believes that she is truthful in everything she does or she is acting in the DR which doesnt make sense

  175. Now if JohnnyMac,Becky, Meg and James can finally get on the same page then maybe Vanessa or one of the twins will go home next week. Steve is still to damned jittery and could vote either way but the vote will be 3 to 3 with James breaking the tie. That is if all of this goes the way I hope it goes.

  176. Well that made no sense. Now I can only wait for Vanessa to find her reason to get rid of Steve. Then I will be happy.

  177. If Becky, James or John win the next HoH comp could be great for their gameplay, but if Vanessa, Austin, Liz, or Julia win, the three outsiders could have their days counted.

      • John dislikes Vanessa though, he wants her gone the most out of anyone, so I don’t see the reason why he wouldn’t. Personally I feel the reason the reason Steve didn’t put her up was because he still feels loyal to her, which is dumb on his part.

      • I felt that Vanessa wanna take Steve to the F2 because he’s not a threat, and well he’s not making strong moves, so maybe Van thinks that it could be an easy victory.

      • Vanessa is a way more emotional player than Derrick, but pretty much the dynamic is the same in the sense where she’s using him strictly for the F2, and his vote.

      • Yes, but I think that if they 2 reach the F2, maybe the houseguests could pick Steve as the next winner.

      • They’re not. Steve hardly made any big moves. Sure, he won some things, only because he had to, but once he got some power he backed out of making the moves he needed to for HIS GAME and instead gave more ammo to a person who is strictly using him for a F2. Pretty much everyone except for the twins and Meg would flat out beat him in a F2, and even then the twins and Meg have more supporters in Jury and a better social game. Unless Steve actually gets it together, and makes some good moves to benefit himself, he’s not going to win.

      • Exactly. That’s Steve’s main purpose at this point besides being a pawn. That’s why Meg was saved too, because who’s going to vote out players you can easily beat towards the end?

      • I know, but it seems like everyone is voting together. John follows the twins group even though Becky is with the goblins.

      • John def does not follow the twins. He doesn’t dislike them, but he doesn’t follow them either.

      • Actually I think that if Becky wants to keep Shelli, her best move it would have been put Austin and Vanessa on the block, but well, it’s time to wait for the next episode.

    • James would put up Steve and Becky with John as the back up. Seriously. He plays to personal of a game.

      • That would be the smart move. I haven’t seen many of those yet. The Clay/Shelli nom and John potentially saving Becky by not using the veto are about the high water mark for this season.

  181. This was a smart move on Steve part. He reinforces the Vanessa alliance, gets out one who originally targeted Vanessa, he knows Vanessa will target becky, so that’s one less in the alliance, leaving only James and Meg (ha), this will also increase the Austwins aggressiveness to go after the other side of the house, and gains some goodwill with becky. Since becky should now be after those thar betrayed her.

    He probably didn’t think of all this, but this could be very beneficial.

    • I don’t think he is getting Becky’s goodwill. Two people in the house Becky liked, Shelli and Jackie. Both are gone, one at the hands of Steve. This will be a Jason situation all over again.

  182. Easy explanation of what happened. Steve wanted becky out but he didn’t want to piss of John. Vanessa got back into Steve’s good graces and convinced him not to put up austwins. So all that were left were the goblins.

    John wasn’t confident Steve wouldn’t back door becky so he chose not to use the veto. Jackie goes home.

    • She annoys the ish out of me because she doesn’t win anything. Doesn’t even seem like she tries to compete.

    • Meg is that annoying puppy who won’t stop humping your leg … you really want to kick her, but she’s so cute, you just can’t.

  184. Best case scenario for John or Becky is to win HOH and put up Vanessa and Julia. If either Austin or Liz wins POV, or Julia takes herself of the block, then the non-veto winner of Austwins will have to go in Julia’s place. This assures Vanessa’s eviction. If this chick gets past this week she’s winning.

  185. The only engineering I see out of Steve is how he can engineer such a stupid move, by taking out someone weaker than he is? he is the weakest player other than Meg left in the house.

  186. You finally win a HoH and the “Lex Luthor” of season 17 nominates Meg and…………………………….Jackie. Let’s hear it for “Creepy Weirdo Super Fan”, Steven. Nobody 4 REAL!!!
    PS – James must feel like a complete “@$$ – #0(3” now.

      • “NO EXCUSES that I know……” – Alice in Chains/Jar of Flies
        RIP Layne Staley and Mike Starr
        Nobody 4 EVER!!!

      • I agree. James is siding with Austin of all people rather than trying to get John and Steve on their side.
        Steve is just an idiot savant.

  187. Please bring back shelli she deserves to be in this game 2 best player this season

  188. And look at that!!! One Goblin down. See, I knew keeping Vanessa was gonna bite them in the butt. They should’ve kept Shelli. Karma sure did come around.

    • I don’t think that had anything to do with it.. I think Steve wanted to Backdoor Becky.. That’s why Vanessa was shocked and Steve was trying to explain himself to Jackie when he Hugged her.. John knew what was up, that’s why he didn’t use it

      • If he wanted Becky out he didn’t think that through. Putting up two from same three person alliance means you’re counting on the third person to pull one down and vote out Becky to save the other.
        As it was no one else was fighting for POV to save either one. And you have Jmac fighting to protect Becky and not use it.

    • I am not understanding how keeping Van caused Jackie to be evicted. If Sheli had stayed, I feel Steve would still have won. So wouldn’t he still had put up Jackie and Meg?i

  189. Who do you think the other side of the house will target more Vanessa or Steve?
    Im thinking that JM and Becky will make a deal with Vanessa to go after the goblins and the goblins will go after Steve.

    • At least it was entertaining from the perspective that it’s like watching a train wreck. You shouldn’t be entertained yet you just can’t believe what you’re seeing!

  191. Dear God, If you exist can you PLEASE make sure that both Steve and Meg are the final two contestants?! Please!? I promise I won’t swear much and will stay away from internet porn forever. Thank you, God. Your friend, AIG

  193. Steve wanted to backdoor Becky but unfortunately for him John won pov. I am glad because it leaves a few players left that realize how dangerous a player Van is.

    • Yes. James, JMac, and Becky have enough ammo between them to take on the other side.

      And that ridiculous alliance between JJM and the Austwins? In a flaming trash can, where it belongs. If any of the three of them win, I guarantee Steve and Van go up. 100 pct

  194. Please let Vanessa’s side of the house win hoh. Make the other side feel stupid for keeping them. I hope the goblins and floaters get picked off.

    • Hey Cheryl here. Technically the floaters are Austin Julia and Meg, neither one of them have won a Dam thing. Yeah Meg won some trip with some football players family, but she won that by pure luck by picking the right cup to drink out of that had some prize at the bottom of it. That’s it.

  195. I think Steve wanted go after Becky bit once John won veto that screwed that. He should told John he is was putting up Vanessa then screwed but up Becky. :-P then been like there is the blood ya want. The votes would been there vs Meg.

  199. Steve should have just thrown the HOH comp, as he had planned if he was going to do what he did.

    No matter who would’ve won, it would have been better than that misguided attempt to BD becky

      • JM is a floater Vanessa is a tyrannical leader that controls half the house. She is way better

      • He’s playing a real smart game. He told Steve last night they need to put up the gremlins if they win.

      • John is playing a smart under the radar game, but he doesn’t have any social pull in the house. Which is why if the Six Sense gets into power he is toasted.

  201. I’m watching right now, but according to Jokers ..Van speculates Becky will put her and Steve on the block..Train Express again! lol

  202. Bet BB/CBS wasn’t expecting that tonight … Let’s see if they “takeover “.

    I kind of feel sorry for Steve. Tonight is going to be tough for him.

  203. Why the hell are those damn twin so untouchable!? I do not get it AT ALL. I would rather ANYONE win it besides one of those two.

    • I agree. At least get Liz out. Julia hates Austin so much I doubt they’d even stay in an alliance together.

    • I get it that Meg hasn’t done a lot in this game, but those TWINS, especially Liz are damn annoying and worthless.

    • I agree. They’re playing as a pair and nobody mentions them. I remember before they both came in that was all everyone talked about was getting the twins out.

    • Steve is dumb as f*ck. Jackie and useless Meg could have been picked off anytime. Now they are still there WITH their leader Vanessa? I’m so pissed that one or both of those two will make it to the end now.

    • Shoot they had no trouble. That was crazy. Shelli welcomed them and Austin was smitten with one so welcomed the other. They considered them “another number” for their side and at that time they controlled the block so they were protected.
      By the time the other side got control they had to focus on the bigger fish.

    • They have the most rock solid alliance in the house with Austin. Vanessa the genius played that hand wrong letting the twins in the house. Austwins wins the game now…write it down. Vanessa/Steve are in battle vs John/Becky/James….they’ll bleed each other out.

      • Ugh, you’re so right. All I can hope for now is that vanessa does her paranoid game and starts a fight with one of them. I wouldnt be surprised if Liz and Julia are the final two. Freaking idiots are in the house this year I swear.

  206. Steve just simply put a target on his back. Vanessa’s side deems him lowest on their totem pole, while the other side now will gun for him. Good job, BB fan nerd. Still going with it — Austwins game to lose now. One of those 3 wins it all. Manic Vanessa and clueless James side hasn’t a chance, as they’ll keep targeting each other. Genius Vanessa/Shelli ushered in the welcome mat to the twins making this all possible.

    • Steve is Van’s secret weapon, not low man on totem pole. Van will breakup up Austwins when time is right but probably let Steve do dirty work.

      • Nope. She sees this guy as her $500k ticket.

        She’ll use him to split up the romantic wrestler and his twits. Take steve to the end and win it all.

      • She needs allies against Austwins and he is most trustworthy to her. Plus he is able to win certain challenges so can protect her. Steve has a cap social game so it will be hard for him to win 500k though Shell likes him.

      • Vanessa is toast because she’s in a war now with the other side. Austwins sit pretty while they duke it out. Shes not a secret anymore like Derrick was. She plays a “loud” game.

      • I agree Vanessa has been working Steve. Befriending him, talking game, planting thoughts. Pretty much using him. She saw the quiet, lonely individual and pounced on him.

  207. Did they show/explain the final HoH for next week? (I assume it’s endurance one?)

    • I believe the HOH will be held or is being held right now. Steve will get a basket and maybe a letter for his few minutes as HOH, but he won’t get the HOH room for the week.

      • Thanks. I knew Steve wasn’t getting the room but thought we might get to see what the HoH comp was. Thanks again!

  209. Do we think that Jmac will wake up now and stop being buddies with Steve? He just tried to take out his only other ally.

    James, Becky or Jmac need to win this next HOH and turn the tides again or this season’s suspense is over.

  210. So here is my theory. This was a Vanessa-Steve plot. Vanessa and Steve are working together and this was planned. Vanessa gets to break her deal with the Goblins and gets no blood on her hands.Clues? Earlier this week she asked, why does Jackie hate me? Thursday night, Jackie is gone. Vanessa threw the HOH comp to Steve too. I tell you this was planned.

    And Vanessa and Steve are the only two in on this. This is why Vanessa came out of the house the other day telling everyone in her alliance not to talk game with Steve anymore. She claimed he told her he is in an alliance with JMAC and Shelli so she is done with him. Misdirection. Why would Steve tell her outright he is in an alliance? That makes no sense. Steve never commits to anything. While she is saying that, Steve is telling Shelli has has to give Vanessa his vote.

    Tonight, Vanessa goes to Meg to tell her it was not personal. Steve put her up as a pawn. Why would Vanessa have to do damage control for Steve?

    Even Austwins don;t know about this plan. Because Vanessa is going to do the same thing to them. This is how she gets the twins out without getting blood on her hands.

    I know it sounds elaborate, but it is Vanessa all over. Her only problem is how does she announce this so she gets credit for it when its final 2. Becky seems to have figured it out or at least she smells a rat. Can James and Meg mend their issues with Becky and work with JMac now to put an end to Vanessa’s nonsense?

    • I have said it before that Steve in Vanessa’s pocket. How can they miss that. Which is why it is doubly dangerous to keep Vanessa in the game. Now, Vanessa’s alliance has the numerical majority and control the votes!

    • Put it this way it is not a matter of mending issues, it is a matter of their BB lives…Meg, James, Becky and JMAC NEED to work together.

    • I don’t think Van tossed HOH comp because why risk being back on block? I do think that they probably had plan to backdoor Becky but unfortunately for them Jmac won HOH and foiled plan. Still they weakened the already weak alliance.

  212. Just shows you how stupid the Goblins are! James, Jackie and Meg. First time out, their necks are on the chopping block. So much for that plan to get out Vanessa on the 2nd eviction. This is so funny! lol

      • There is no doubt in my mind if Vanessa went home instead of Shelli Steve puts Austin and one twin on the block. No doubt in my mind.

      • Steve was a non factor in their scenario though…..if he was working on that kind of logic he still would have put them up tonight.

      • I don’t think so because Becky was his target. If Becky were backdoored then she would have gone home. The plan almost worked except Jmac won veto and saved an ally from being backdoored.

      • I’m pretty sure you’re right. It was Becky or James for sure. Of all the possible outcomes tonight, Jackie going out the door was one of the least likely. He put up two pawns, not just one. If I was JMac, I would have frozen them too

    • Did you see James’ face when John said he wasn’t using the Veto??? Priceless! Granted, I wasn’t expecting the DE to go down like this, but that’s EXACTLY what I was talking about the other day!

      • Well, James, Jackie and Meg do not know how to count. Vanessa has lied to their faces how many times? Broker her promises to their faces, how many times? Becky saved their assess and their thanks is to blow up her game? Now, that Vanessa has regained control of the votes, how does James and Meg hope to stop her? I hope they evict James next because he is useless and not to be trusted!

    • And yet he’s still relying on John to protect him in this upcoming HOH comp. Steven’s no dope – he’ll side with both for as long as he can.

  214. So Steve apologizes to the goblins, but they shouldn’t put him on the block anyway. The best way to get Vanessa out is to put her up against LIz.

  215. Vanessa and shelli are the only ones who know how to play big brother so please bring back shelli so her and vanessa can take out the rest of these stupid players

    • Jmac is also a very good player and has a good shot of winning it all. Smart, good at challenges and good social game. Vanessa’s weakness is her emotions but she has good shot too.

    • Not Shelli or Vanessa,they are so irritating Game Wise. It’s a way to play without crying every 20mins,pleading or having a meltdown.

  216. I wonder when the ArseTwits are going on the block. Liz is really a mean girl; first her not so nice good by message to Jason, now her snide why of voting Jackie out. JudArse is NOT a prize AND you kind of liking a guy who “has” a girl… Humph, I wonder how Liz is going to feel when he comes cross a triplet and “fall in love” with one.

    • How about Jason running around calling all the women the C word. If I knew he was saying those things about me or about any women, my goodbye message for him would have been 14 million times more caustic than Liz’s.

      • All I’m saying is that in comparison, what Jason has said is far worse than anything Liz has said. Jason seems be getting a free pass whereas people are still bringing up Liz’s goodbye message to Jason.

      • Oh goodness you should know that Jason doesn’t get a free pass for folks like me… I thought he was an ill-mannered young man who wanted to be the next ”Frankie” on BB. I wanted his alliance to do well, but he & Da’Vonne were not likeable people.

    • Because steve is nuts….he isn’t thinking logically tonight. He better be as nice as possible to her now that his other mother Shelli is gone.

    • Winning that HOH seems to have thrown him. That was the absolute last thing he wanted tonight. He’s been telling the remaining Goblins that he’s willing to chat, but he’s not in the right frame of mind at the moment, so it’s gonna have to wait.

  218. Guess I missed the after party here. I had just an inkling that something totally unpredictable was going to transpire. Good ‘ol quiet Stevie boy came to play along with JMac! I thought for sure JMac would want to take Meg down and Steve put Becky up. Heck if that didn’t happen!

    • That didn’t happen. Steve put Jackie & Meg up and John didn’t use the POV.

      • I know…I did say heck if that didn’t happen…even though I was thinking that would have been the smarter move! LOLOL

      • No, it seems that Steve requested JMac to use the veto, but he opted not to… There’s a chance the plan was to backdoor Becky (which wouldn’t have been in JMac’s best interest, so of course he chose not to use it)…

      • I read differently that Steve told him not to use the Veto…so who knows anymore what Steve means. Geesh!

      • That’s why I said “heck if that didn’t happen” even though I expected JMac to use it on Meg and Steve bding Becky as he’s always threatened he’d do.

  219. Seems from the feeds that Steve is saying that was not what he wanted. I guess he was hoping for Meg to leave. Either that he was hoping for the veto to be played and hoping to BD somebody else.

    • I think you are right about wanting to BD someone – likely Becky.

      Unfortunately for his naive plan, Jmac won veto and blocked his only real ally in the house from the BD.

      I think he told jmac not to use it because he knew what his plan was and didn’t want to hurt Jmac by following thru and his misguided way of getting becky.

      • So there was a reason JMac didn’t talk to Steve about what would happen if Steve won HoH. But I think JMac knew Steve would want Becky gone, so that’s why he didn’t use the Veto on Meg or Jackie!

  220. I hope Becky wins again. She seems to be the only one after Vanessa. James should win if he wants to stay another week though.

  221. Joker’s is running updates so there’s no HoH comp going on. Anyone know when the next one happens? (Did it already and do we have a new HoH?)

  222. No goodbye messages for Shelli or Jackie! Maybe because they’ll be getting the chance to play again?

  223. Best episode yet!!!! Wish shelli would have stayed but it’s almost worth it to get out floaters that no one will miss, good move Steve!

  224. When is somebody gonna get some b%&#s and evict the trouble maker? Go get em James!

  225. When Steve won HOH I knew there was no way he was going to nominate Vanessa. That girl is playing these people to the hilt. It’s a shame they’re all clueless when it comes to this game. lol

  226. Who did Meg say was dancing and happy after jackie was evicted when she was talking to james near the bathroom…I couldn’t tell who the names were when james asked her: who was dancing?

    • I think she was talking about Vanessa and the Austwins. Somehow, I think they were in shock as well because they wasn’t dancing or laughing. well, at least not while the live TV camera’s were rolling.

    • Liz. And she didn’t try to hide it, apparently. I think James and Meg have finally–finally–realized that Austin and company are not to be trusted under any circumstances. Losing Jackie isn’t a big deal in terms of comps. Becky or James going out would have been a much bigger hit. The damage could have been much worse

  227. Hey… would you look at that? Vanessa is back with Austwins. Guess all those people who claimed that they were “done” with her were mistaken.

    • Austin didn’t promise to work with J/J/M if Vanessa was still in the house…only if Van went home in 2nd evict would he and the twins do that.

      • Which was never gonna happen unless JMac got Liz up there against Vanessa. JJM(now JM) got played for fools–again. If it happens again, they’re toast. Good for them Steve didn’t put up their big guns from the jump. Losing Jackie costs them a vote, but she wasn’t real dangerous in comps. Having Becky or James walk out instead would have been a much bigger hit.

    • I’ve always said they will ride or die with Van till the very end, no matter what they say. I would think that James and Meg better get JMac and Becky on board–immediately. And clearly, that silly final 6 deal is in a flaming trash can. That was worth as much as a $3 bill

  228. How many times do these idiots have to get spanked before they realize what’s going on in the house?

    • Jackie was the one telling James and Meg what was going on in the house. With Jackie gone, James and Meg will be even more clueless. James is saying they need to work with Steve now, ya know, the guy who just put two of James’ alliance members on the block. Hopeless.

      • He is hopeless – like a pugnacious little dog, but of a breed that isn’t very bright. He was my little Asian stud muffin, but he’d better pull something totally awesome out of the hat, or I’m going to downgrade him to my little Asian dud.

      • Nice guy, but he got massively outplayed by the opposing team. He can pull a turnaround. It will all depend on the next HoH.

      • Jackie was telling what she knew. Becky told what she knew and Shelli told almost everything she knew or she would be willing to give up. They are not totally clueless but more under staffed for the fight that is about to ensue for the $500 thousand dollars. Just my opinion.

  229. Glad to see Shelli go, but Jackie and Meg were a waste of time. Go after someone who matters! So upset Steve didn’t nominate Austin and Liz or Becky and Vanessa – he is absolutely clueless. Doesn’t he see that Austwin is an automatic group of three? All they ever need are a couple more to vote with them and they have a huge amount of control in the house. I’ve never seen a season where there were so many dummies left in the game. Vanessa is psycho, but it’s working for her, and the way she’s able to manipulate people she could very well up in the F2, unless James wins HOH again at some point. I just don’t know what to make of this year, I don’t ever remember being this confused or not having someone to root for.

    • Vanessa has Steve in her pocket. Why should he attack that alliance he is with? James, Jackie and Meg for turning on Becky and John got a dose of their medicine, which is treachery. They were fine with Vanessa targeting Becky and John. Vanessa NEVER keeps her promises and lies multiple times to their faces and still they trust her over Becky? It serves Jackie right to be evicted. I hope James is next! They brought this on themselves!

      • I completely agree. When they started saying they trusted Vanessa, I could have reached through the TV and slapped them.

  230. One thing that everyone is forgetting. When there is the chance for the HG’s to have a shot at returning to the house, that comp is usually a endurance one. There is only two that are willing to fight to the bitter end to go back into that house. Plus there will be a good chance that this person will be HOH. I would be placing bet’s on Shelli and James for that comp.

  231. The Goblins/JMac appears to be re-grouping while Van and Austwins in the other room scheming. ..and Steve? who knows? There’s so much game to play, it’s wide open.

    • All James and Meg can do now is suck it up, be glad it wasn’t them, and try to move forward. Being pissed gets them nowhere right now. They would be fools to work with those twins and austin though…

  232. They need to have tests of intelligence and emotional stability. These people are crazy stupid!

  233. Congratulations Steve. You are the least strategic and dumbest player remaining. Every “super fan” knows that HOH on DE night puts up couples, I.e. twins or showmances. Gotta reason, right? Instead you have shown you are Vanessa’s man-bitch. You lack any manhood or any independent thinking with what you did. Go away, Steve, better players deserve the money.

    • So I’m a bit confused… are you saying you like him? It’s ok, you don’t need to hold back your thoughts with me. ;)

      • Great question! For more years than I can count I have meant men who are of all hues and views, gay or straight, Alph

    • So you went to cornell? Hmmmmm, guess you have a huge college bill. No street smarts whatsoever

    • She must have done a number on him for sure! She told him point blank that if he didn’t vote for her, he would be her next target. He ran away scared like she wanted him to.

  234. Steve is absolutely delusional to think he can bring Vanessa, his “ally,” to the end and win. He thinks he’s so much smarter than everyone else because he looks nerdy like Ian, but he is overestimating his game play. Perhaps with fewer people now he might have a better chance at winning, but if he’s thinking about taking V to the end, he’s in for a rude awakening, because she will win the majority of the votes. Hope the rest, Autwins and Steve, wake up and realize they’re all playing for 2nd place if they take her to the end.

    • He’s like Sheldon Cooper on Big Bang Theory.

      Probably crazy smart, but no self awareness or awareness of his surroundings or situation.

  235. Who is Steve really loyal to..Freaks and Geeks or what’s left of the Goblins? I am watching him go back and forth between two rooms and tell one room he has never felt so empty and he needs them to back him up (Freaks and Geeks) and then goes into HN room and talks to them..

    • Feel some pity for the guy. He’s socially retarded. He’s in a house with only one person who seems to genuinely like him (JMac) and an older woman who’s telling him everything he needs to/wants to hear (Verbal). It’s like watching a 9 year-old in high school. He’s out of his league.

      • Not rough at all. I’m not using it in the old-school horrible way. I mean it like it is. He’s socially delayed. Stunted. He’s not operating at a speed/level that most other people his age operate at. He’s 100% socially retarded.

      • lol – I get ”how” you’re using it, but in my neck of the woods people don’t really throw that word around anymore… I’ll chalk it up to a cultural difference. ;)

      • As noted in my original reply, I apologized and edited the word. My bad. Thanks for pointing out the error. It was 100% wrong on my part.

      • No worries, just didn’t want you getting too much heat and not understanding why… It really is considered a pretty ”extreme” word in the hate spectrum where I come from. (Not to say this was your intention – just that it would take a particular amount of grace on the reader’s part to know that you didn’t mean it in the ”hate speech” sense)…

      • Gosh no need to apologize, like I said, my motivation always seems to be looking out for the people on here who are regulars in the community. You’ve had some great insights throughout this season so I’m just looking out for a fellow commenter! :)

      • I feel bad for the guy..he is “socially awkward,” I would not use “retarded.” I was just wondering where he stands in the house.

      • I used “socially retarded” instead of “socially stunted” but changed it in the original reply. My apologies. It wasn’t meant to be offensive in any manner. It was a big mistake on my part.

      • It’s oblivious he has social anxiety. And you’re right, i do feel for him. He is a very smart person but obviously out of his element. But I give him mad props for coming in the show despite his anxiety and living his dream.

    • He’s only got Van, and she’ll take him to final 2.

      And she’ll win because he’s so clueless.

    • He is being used and is out of his league in this game.

      He may float a while while heavy artillery goes off at bigger targets, but I think both sides will realize how dangerous he is (he is winning comps) and take him out since they really don’t know what he will do

    • I’m watching the feeds–and it looks like Steve has finally put the pieces together that Van has been lying to him the entire time–not just some of it. He’s better off with James, Becky and company anyway. It’s not like he’d have a chance to win if he was on the other side, and I think he’s finally–finally–figuring that out too.

      • I’m not watching the feeds. Just following jokers.

        What is his demeanor? Does he seem sincere with JMcrew. Or is he just playing a mole.

        I read on twitter that when van asked him to study with her, he was rude to her. Maybe he has opened his eyes to how he’s been used

  236. Wow! Steve send my girl Jackie packing, I hope she comes back into the house and take a revenge on clueless Steve wanna be Ian. Now I don’t have any one to root for, I was rooting for the under dogs J/J/M, Meg is lost in the bottle of booze while James does not know how to strategize, Jackie was the brain for them and now that she is gone, the two remaining under dogs are toasted.
    I just can’t believe how Austin and the twins are just coasting in the house doing nothing while the other HG’s have their blinders on and not taking notice of what is going on.

  237. Maybe Steve isn’t as naive as some think…He is now the swing vote between the two groups of four:

    Van and Austwits VS John, Becky, James, and Meg.

    Steve can’t win HOH so that reduces the winner’s team to only three votes.
    He’ll have to decide which side he’s on this week!!!

    • I think he is very naive. His reactions have been very self-deprecating and he is so needy.

      He is either a master gameplayer by playing the idiot savant to hide his true mastery of the game OR he is really just a pitiable kid who is naive and out of his league trying to play at this point of the game

      • Who knows? Either way, he will have to choose between Jmac and Van…I hope he’s savvy enough to pick Jmac!

      • On Jokers:

        9:03 Meg tells Steve: We are not mad. I am not mad at you. I think we are being set-up to make you our next TARGET & Steve says “OMG”

        9:06 Becky chimes in & says: WHo do you think I wld come after for going after my BFF. Steve says him. Meg asks: Who do you think I would also or convince James to go after & Steve says “him” & Meg/Becky say you see & Steve is figuring out in his head (and says looks surprised and says OMG). Meg tells him that well – I am not coming after you and Becky says same thing (and Steve says well-they can since he was the a55hole but he appreciates it).

      • His uncomfortably long vice-grip hug of Shelli as she left the BB house tells us all that creepy Steve is using his time to get his one opportunity in his life to be in contact with pretty women that will never happen again.

    • Yes sir, that means a lot of storage room “Alone Time” for a lengthy discussion with himself???……..This dude has pulled out the last two comp’s like ain’t nobody’s business tho!!! The diabolical dork just got in this game…….shm

    • I suspect that his vote was to save the goat Meg. Who in the world would keep Jackie over Meg?

  238. why did Steve not put Vanessa on the block, Becky is so upset, wth Steve and JMAC are so dumb, you have a bigger target in the GAME!!! GRRRR! So stupid! But I can understand that Steve would have put Becky up, I guess John wanted to save her :/ Steve is such a fruit cake!

    • On the feeds, Steve is putting the pieces together that Van used him. She’s lied to him the whole game, and I think he’s finally had enough. Looks like we have our two sides–the Austwins and Vanessa vs the field. I’ll take the field, although I have no idea who is left standing at the end.

      • I hope what you say is true and the field would be a cool alliance name for the rest of the house if they could pull together???

      • You’re right and JMac is advising him. Hopefully, with some luck tonight, they’ll get it right this time around. Now it’s only 2 sides and they could be the majority

      • Super excited that they are all FINALLY talking and coming together. At least until Vanessa talks to James or Steve again. There is hope after all.

  239. Why didn’t John use veto and then Steve put James up and shown him the backdoor? Jackie is not a threat in anything while James is a strong competitor. Was some deal made? I haven’t been following…

    Btw, Vanessa FTW! It is time for you to take back the power and dominate the house. You go girl!

    • I really thought Steve was telling John to use the veto so he could backdoor’d James. I was hoping he put Vanessa up instead. Most people want her gone so unlike Derrick she is on everyone’s radar. Hopefully she will leave next and Jackie could win a spot in the house again.

      • If she or Austwins can win HoH next week, they will take out James or Becky. Let’s see.

    • I think John didn’t want to take the risk of Becky going up and being eliminated. At this point, she’s his only ally and she might have been a target for Steve.

  240. i am so bummed i wanted that ugly Becky to get backdoor,,hopefully vanessa sends her packing

    • While I wasn’t bummed I figure that would be Steve’s play considering how he doesn’t care for her??

  241. This is exactly what the Goblins get for leaving Vanessa in the game. I absolutely LOVE IT. She was selling out Steve to them the entire week when in reality, he was still in her pocket. Vanessa got Steve to do her dirty work and that’s what the Goblins get for trusting Vanessa. VERY well played by Vanessa. There’s no doubt in my mind had Shelli stayed, Steve would’ve put up Austin and the twins.
    I’m very surprised at all the back lash for this double eviction. I thought it was awesome and I LOVE that Becky and John both stayed. That’s all I wanted. Now business is about to pick up moving forward.

  242. going to quit watching this season, too many unlikables I can’t stand to watch : Vanessa Austin Liz Julia and don’t really like the others! I am done!

    • Not my favorite cast either, but I could never stop watching. Too much of a fan. If I could get through BB15, I can get through this. :)

      • Last year was awful, so predictable and too many followers.

        This season has been great! Still plenty of followers but zero predictability. The Vanessa/Jmac battle is about to begin.

        And who is going to do something about the romantic wrestler and his twin idiots?

    • I have to say, the likability of this cast is pretty low. Jace was obnoxious. Jeff was a non-stop talker incapable of keeping any information secret. Austin has been pretty creepy at times. Vanessa is a crazy pathological liar. Shelli was the entitled queen. The twins are spoiled brats – nasty too. Meg just sleeps and is stupid. James is easily influenced. Steve is, well, Steve.

      I could go on but why bother. Becky is annoying but at this point I give her credit for making a comeback after a really dismal first 5 or 6 weeks.

  243. What a waste. Big brother hasnt been goos since the coaches season. U kno things are wack when
    a.) the houseguests pretty much alrdy kno wen the DE is gonna happen, cus it happens the same time wvery year
    B.) the houseguests evicted are told upfront that theyll have a chance to come back

    Big brother has taken away all the good twists and the ones we had left, theyve made them so dry and expecting. I remember a time when DE was unexpected, when someone coming back was a shocker.

    I swear its like this show gets worse every year.

    • I agree. I wish there were more surprises, especially for the house guests. Why can’t they come up with new games for the comps.

    • lol, i know so true, not to mention there are no BB take overs, its really cut and dry this season

      • That’s probably because this season has been pretty unpredictable, they really haven’t had to throw in monkey wrenches to mess with the house dynamic. The house guests are taking care of that for them!

      • That is pretty true especially with the alliances, its been a pretty fun thing to see things unfold

  244. After reading the feeds Steve is figuring out he got played! Wow, I honestly hope that all 5 work together to get Vanessa out next this time. I wish Steve spoke to Jackie before hand and maybe he could have put Austin or Vanessa up, hopefully they get a chance to do so at the next HOH comp.

    • Agreed on “she makes James and Becky
      weaker” but she isn’t as dumb as she is leading us to believe…

    • Meg is asking why all her friends go home. Uh, Meg. Time to let someone else do the thinking for a change. I actually think Becky makes them a smarter group.

  246. How’s this for an alliance name for Jmac, James-Becky, and Meg:

    Dr, J-ecky, and Mrs Glide!!!

  247. Looks like we finally have our battle lines drawn for the rest of the season! Should be fun to watch–no more floaters, and no more silly alliances that don’t mean anythingverybody has picked a side. Lock and Load!

  248. Do you think we’ll see exit interviews or post-evic interviews with Shelli and Jackie on Sunday night?

  250. Its clear we now have two sides of the house and no more false pretenses. If the Goblins+ win HoH two of the Vanessa zombies will go up on the bloc, including Vanessa. IF Vanessa or her flying monkeys win then Becky and James are going up.

    I just want Vanessa and Julia to be whining about going home this week. Please BB, make this happen!

  251. All I can say is HAHAHAHA.
    That’s what you get for screwing over Becky.
    “Oh, we’ll evict Shelli, so the others will focuse on Becky and JMac and we’ll be safe”. BAM, Meg and Jackie go up for eviction.
    Would have only been better if James had been going, can’t stand that guy!
    I hope JMac or Becky win HOH

    • I agree. I think if Vanessa have been evicted Steve would have gone in the opposite direction. With Vanessa still in the house he went with her.

      The gobbrains didn’t figure out the repercussions on the rest of the house if they voted out Shelli.

      Maybe now, finally, they will realize that cannot trust the other sidfe of the house for anything. No more crazy scheme to work with Austin and the twins. Austin does not control the twins, they control him and Vanessa controls them.

      • Doesn’t really matter anymore. Either James, John or Becky is going to go this week. If James stays this week and becomes HOH, then he won’t be able to compete in the week after that and is going to be on the block nonetheless.
        They dug their own graves.

  253. Jmac just saved Beckys game by not using the veto… Smart move… He knew if he used it Steve would put her up … And she would have been out the door… Otherwise he had nothing to loose by using the veto

    • Btu he said Steve asked him not to use the veto. It is clear to me Jackie was his target for some reason and that reason had to be Vanessa.

      I hope Meg and James realize Jackie is gone because James acted selfishly in wanting Shelli out. They could have made a deal with Shelli. Dummies. Meg needs to shut up and let someone else do the thinking. Becky is better at it than she is. Meg is actually pretty useless.

  255. Is it any surprise that all three goblins went out on the second question tonight? I have to believe its because Meg is such a bad influence on them.

  258. So one of the twins just won HOH, I’m SURE that Austwins will stay loyal to their “deal”, right guys?

    • I’m so confused by everything going on – please remind me what their “deal” was….

      • I don’t even think they know what their deal was. I’d be pretty scared if I were becky though.

      • Austwins and Goblins made a deal before eviction to evict Shelli. Austwins also stated that they don’t trust Vanessa anymore and that they’d rather work with Goblins.

      • I don’t trust Austin and the Bug-Eye Twins are downright scary. It’s going to be an interesting week. Thanks!

      • I disagree, I think it’s going to be a boring week of nasally voiced idiots whining and complaining about how “mean” the Goblins have been to them and imposing their own moral superiority over everyone, talking about their “word” and how they’re the good people. Bleh.

      • There are an awful lot of “nasally voiced idiots” whining and complaining in the house this year. Good comment.

      • That and chewing with their damn mouths open like a cow eating grass!!! Nasty double mint twins and Captain Caveman all week is enough to make me wanna take a long walk off a short bridge!!!!

  260. Well, Another internet Genius, looks like, by default, we have landed on the same side;) the side of anybody except Vanevil or the Austwins??? Lol

  261. Liz won the HoH. James and Becky will be nominated and most likely Becky will be going home. I think its over for them now. With Becky gone there is no one left on that side who isn’t a moron.

    • I’m looking for all of those people saying that evicting Shelli was the “smarter” move right now. Vanessa basically has HOH right now.

      • It was smart only for James, I’ve been saying that, I still believe. it. The goblins as a whole were screwed either way.

  262. Goodbye, James! Thanks for playing season 17……………….and now the truth about Meg shall be revealed! Nobody 4 MORE!!!

    • He’s not dead yet. I would imagine Becky would be the alternate option. Of course, she could win the veto if she isn’t nominated, save James and lose JMac too. No Bueno, no matter how you slice it.

      • After last week, Becky would never save James over JMac. JMac has been loyal to her, James stabbed her in the back.

      • Best case scenario: Becky wins, James gets up, James gets evicted.

        If James won POV, would he use it on Becky? He couldn’t be the renom and nobody would vote to evict Meg….

        Basically, the only way Becky AND JMac will both be safe is for one of them to win POV and James going up. They might get James out thinking that Becky/John is isolated and no threat..

    • James and Shelli will both know that one shirt is worth $500,000.

      And James doesn’t even get to keep the shirt!

  263. Are you watching the “LIVE FEED”? Liz won HoH…………you mean to say Vanessa is HoH…………she really is a piece of work. Nobody 4 NOW!!!

    • yeah, van is already telling why they need to get Becky who is her top target out this week. Liz hasn’t proven that she has a mind of her own and will probably do what van and/or austin tell her to. but then again austin is vans puppet, so van is probably in charge this week

  264. Sad thing is shelli got the twins in the game because week 2 when shelli was hoh she was going to target Liz and austin told her no so they used it to there advantage and vanessa had nothing to do with bringing the twins in it was shelli and clay idea and the twins voted them out

  265. I want to point out again why evicting Shelli was the wrong move. First, if Vanessa was gone then Steve probably would not have put Meg and Jackie on the block. He probably would have put two up from the other side. Maybe Austin and Liz?

    Plus, the Austwins and Goblins would have drawn closer together without Vanessa there to control the twins. With Liz winning HoH, they would have gone ahead with their plan to get rid of the other players outside of their 6.

    The goblins are getting what they deserved for being so stupid when they had a chance to take out the main instigator in the house.

    • No disagreement from me. Amazing how all the people who thought JJM(now JM) thought making this F6 deal with Austin and saving Vanessa was such a brilliant move. Amazingly, none of them are here tonight. Becky is reading Meg the riot act about saving Van and she looks like she wants to cry. She can’t really admit it because she knows she’d look like an idiot, but she knows Becky is right.

  266. Steve is in the comic room dancing with the twins and Vanessa. Obviously he is with Vanessa’s side. Another miscalculation but Meg and her goblins.

    • Who knows. He has to know he can’t actually win by siding with them. James and Co. have much bigger problems, so they won’t be going for him now either–and neither will Van and Co. He just bought himself a couple rounds minimum.

  267. Becky telling Meg now that Vanessa sould have gone not Shelli. She is lecturing Meg about why she felt Shelli was not the right target. Meg is dumbfounded or just dumb.

      • They turned on Becky first. If she flips, then it’s their own fucking fault^^
        James and Meg deserve anything Vanessa and her minions throws at them

  269. Things could not have gone any worse tonight. It will be interesting to see if Becky flips this week though. She is queen of the flip flopping rats. I think she could pull it off.

  270. Becky is pissed. She is ranting to Meg who must feel like and idiot. Becky saying she knew (emphatically) the keeping Vanessa was a mistake.

    Meg is depressed. Probably realizing she is as dumb was we think she is.

    • Meg deserves the spanking that she’s getting right now. She claimed she KNEW that Shelli was more dangerous. Well now two of her friends are going to be gone come next eviction.

      • Except Meg is safe. No one is afraid of her. She sucks at comps. They are going after James and Becky. Meg is like typhoid Mary.

  271. Bingo! Becky hit the nail on the head with Meg. Vanessa can use other people to do her work. Shelli could not. That’s why Vanessa had to go.

    To win BB you need to have some stupid people against you. Meg and James fit that bill perfectly.

  272. This would be a good week for a rewind. Although I don’t think it would make a difference.

    • I had to turn the wound off. I cannot stand listening to the twins anymore. Its like listening to two spoil bratty teenagers. Then there is Vanessa who is such a bore and full of herself and crazy theories.

      I am so angry at the goblins for ruining this season.

  274. I would like to know why the twins think they have a chance of winning with Vanessa in the house. In fact, why does anyone in this house think they have a chance of winning with Vanessa in the house?

  275. Vanessa is working her voo doo magic on John ALREADY lol! She says she has advice for him that would help him make it far in this game.

  276. This just sucks. What has meg done? Nothing. Which is why she should have gone and also why they kept her.
    Becky got hit with another train tonight, and yes, again, why, meg, why.

    Vanessa should have gone, and the fact that they kept her now leaves a bunch of unlikable characters to pick up the slack. Disappointed. Just for that, maybe van deserves the money.
    Also, whats with the hate on James? The guy wears camo. That’s pretty much all he did that was offensive. Wasn’t he the one who started the power shifting in the game when clay and shelli reigned almighty? I don’t get it.
    I don’t know if the show is even worth it without the goblins. I really don’t know.

    • James is more to blame for the goblins going after Shelli than the idiot Meg. It was James who flipped his camo lid over Shelli taking his shirt (even though Julia actually took it). James was adamant about getting out Shelli and making a deal with the Austwins.

      The problem with the goblins is they won once then it went to their head.s They never planned for the times when they woudln’t win. They isolated themselves instead of socializing and it hurt them.

      They are done. As their numbers dwindle the likelihood of winning future HoH comps decreases. But, we are getting close to the point where Vanessa will need to start eating her own. I do not believe she will take the twins to final 2 especially now that Liz has won another HoH comp (that’s as many as Vanessa). Van wants to take someone she will beat in votes. With Austin and a twin in teh jury house she is already at a disadvantage, especially if the remaining twin is Liz.

      But to take out the twins and Austin, she needs numbers. I am guessing she is going to save James and try to get him to take them out. As soon as Becky is out, I think Vanessa makes her first move on the twins. She will use Steve to do it.

      • All over a shirt? Wow. These are the things BB doesn’t put on the show. But yeah, about them, the twins need to go. I don’t particularly have an issue with Julia, who seems a little isolated at the moment. But, at the end of the day she listens to her sister. And ever since Liz made that comment to Jason about living in his moms basement forever, she just comes across in a nasal and bratty way.

    • I don’t think it’s worth it either. I’m no super duper fan of the goblins but they finally gave the show some balance. I asked for good drama, but I just can’t take those twins type of drama.

      I’m just going to keep up with the highlights and wait for a glimmer of hope.

      • From here on its going to be like last season. One by one they will fall until Vanessa has her final 3 in place, just like Derrick did last year.

        The only question is, are there two HGs willing to give her the $500,000 like Victoria and Cody last year?

  279. Becky allowed Vanessa to convince her that Jackie wanted her out of the house. So she’s responsible for Jackie going home. Unbelievable

  280. van is whining to liz how becky not only broke the deal, but she was soooo mean to van and that is why she needs to go. can’t have lying, mean people in the house

  281. Vanessa thinks her side is the good guys. Wait until she gets out of the house to find out how many people can’t stand her and her alliance.

  283. Meg telling Becky, “every week I feel like an a$$hole”. To me this is the same as “why does this happen to us every week?” Just as I predicted.

  284. Vanessa is making final three with JohnnyMac and Steve. Blood on the hands has come up again

    • Wait! about 2 hours ago she made a final three with the twins!

      30 minutes ago she was talking about evicting JMac!

      If JMac is smart he will run that little tidbit right back to Austwins – with Steve. Let that alliance go after each other.

  285. Meg blaming Shelli for not selling herself well enough. That’s her excuse for evicting Shelli instead of Vanessa.

    Shelli promised safety and she would work with them. Did Vanessa make that promise?

    Meg is a loser.

  287. Those people who pay for the feeds, how annoying is it that they go to fish so often? And why fish on all cameras if the offending HG is only one 2?

    We fans need to make some noise about it. I didn’t pay to watch loops of fish swimming. If the HG talk about things they need to fish then fine them or punish them. Stop with the fish!

    • I agree, I’d rather watch fish than the Jeff interviews though. I hate when they put all 4 cams on the same houseguests. Thats how I know I will be watching very little if at all this week. All the cams will be on vanessa and those two airheads.

      Why do they only have 4 cameras anyways?

  289. The Revenge of the Shelli … woo hoooooo!!! Serve them right!!! They should have evicted Vanessa, if Vanessa’s gone, this would have not happened! But sad that Jackie got eliminated, it should have been Meg, Jackie is a stronger and wiser player.
    Never underestimate Vampire Dentist. He’s very smart. Almost won the HoH and aced thru PoV.
    See James, your emotion got the better of you, next time use your head !!!

    • You summed it up perfectly.

      James almost won the POV. He had a ball close to the 3rd hole before JMac but he dropped it. I wonder what James would have done it he won POV.

      • Easy, took Meg off then Steve would have put Becky up and Becky would have been evicted. Vampire Dentist didn’t want to save anyone coz he knew Steve would target Becky.

    • James is actually in a pretty decent spot right now though. Hes more of a pawn, renom possibility than a direct target for the moment.

      • I was referring to the DE not the following HoH. Anyway they lost a valuable member because of his “emotion”. From a good position to be a “pawn” as you stated, that’s not really good, is it?

  290. Who else is watching this “pathetic” little man, Steven? So he sent Jackie home because he failed at “trying to have a conversation with her”! “Bikini Bunny Babes” don’t normally “do” Nerds, Losers, and Weirdos………..fact. Nobody 4 EVER!!!

    • Steve may be playing an even more brilliant game than Vanessa. I am beginning to wonder if this nerdy, I’m too nervous to talk, loser is an act. He was just in the room with Autwins and Vanessa plotting the next nominations and saying I hope I earned your confidence with my HoH.

      the problem for the goblins is there are too many rats. But you know how kill a colony of ants or bees? Kill the queen. I hate to say it, but taking out Shelli instead of Vanessa was a monumental blunder by the goblins. It was a season ending mistake.

  291. Vanessa asked Liz who she wanted to put up. Liz answer, “I don;t knoooow”. So Vanessa tells her Becky and JMac.

  292. I guess my only hope is that Jackie comes back. She was a real player, and she could see through people. Jason had that too, and he was at least likable. Either or would be awesome.

    • I want Becky to come back after she is evicted tonight. Becky has the best chance of winning a comp and finally putting an end to Vanessa. The problem is by the time she gets back there will be no one left to vote with her.

      • Yeah, I agree that Becky has a better chance of winning comps, but I’ve always felt her to be a little back-and-forth in the social aspects. When she finally stepped up and put Van and Shelli on the block, she became more then a floater. I still feel, though, that Jackie would have a better chance actually staying in it.

  293. It’s official………………..Julia is the “smart” twin. She just said if there is a backdoor option…………….James. Nobody 4 MORE!!!

    • O crap! I hope he will be smart this time and get the POV and save himself and Becky, although I like Jmac, but someone has gotta put Vanessa out of the game and Im not liking the plays so far.

  294. Vanessa telling JohnnyMac that she has some advice for him that he should do that would put him in a better position in the house and if he does it, it will put him in a better position in the house. Again reference to blood on her hands (the thousandth time she has made this statement.

    If he listens to this garbage, he should get his dental license revoked, LOL

      • She gets other people to do all the dirty work for her by hijacking Steve’s HoH. Her game has been outed, everyone knows she’s a serpent, she was on the block, and they STILL kept her over Shelli because she was able to convince the Goblins that Shelli is the bigger threat. The woman never ceases to amaze me.

      • Every single one of those reasons is why I love her now. I don’t like her as a person, furthest thing from it! But with what she’s managed to do this game so far? It’s incredibly impressive.

      • Unless there’s incredibly ample evidence to suggest someone is a bad person outside of the game, I tend to give all of them the benefit of the doubt, even if I hate them as players. The few exceptions would be Rachel, Aaryn and Frankie.

      • Fair enough. Bad phrasing on my part. “She annoys me as a personality type.” I don’t know her personally so shame on me for using that original phrasing. – But I respect the fudge out of her.

      • That’s what I said! She’s THAT good, isn’t she! Love this girl! Vanessa, YOU ROCK!

      • She is a master manipulator and quite capable of winning this whole thing, but she just leaves me feeling some type away……She is unlikable imo!!!

      • I agree, she is unlikable but she is smarter than they all are, they probably should have gone with Becky’s plan but if V wins then I’ll pay my respects, this is just too easy for her.

      • I do not like Vanessa AT ALL. AT ALLLL. But I will give her due props. I’d rather she win than the twins.

      • As will I but, I get so frustrated at the mindless zombie’s that eat each other under someone else’s orders!!!

      • But I will give credit where it is due, and hopefully not run into any sleepless nights lol.

      • I love everything about Vanessa. I think her crying spiels are a part of her game and she is letting loose…perhaps a little too much. Hopefully she can rein that in. I want her to win!

  296. Was Meg a recruit or did she apply for BB? How about James?

    The way these two play the game I wonder how much they have watched it in the past.

    • Lol, I dunno, alot of them dont know how to play, its ridiculous honestly, they should have sent Vanessa packing in the double eviction, had Steve been smart to put Vanessa up, this wouldnt be happening

    • Meg was a recruit (or a recommendation). She’s close friends with a girl who was on Survivor twice.

    • James applied. Go to youtube and do a search for:

      James Huling Big Brother casting 17

      and you’ll see his self-submission tape.

  297. I never really thought it was fair how Vanessa says ‘YOU GAVE YOUR WORD’, when she was constantly breaking hers. She was sobbing uncontrollably and its like, really, does she have a mirror?

  298. Austin and the twins talking about who to put up. They are keeping the deal with James and Meg and will not put them up. They are putting up Becky as the target.

    Vanessa is no in on this conversation and it sounds like they are not crazy about Vanessa either. They will not put her up, yet, but it sounds like they want her out eventually. The bad part is they are talking about bringing in Vanessa into the 6 person deal (to replace Jackie!) Can these people be as stupid as the Goblins?

    They should be thinking about how they get Vanessa out because they will be her targets soon.

    • Hm, intriguing. Um, well if you think about it, their name is the ‘sixth sense’ lol I guess it would be pretty stupid but, anything for a pretentious name that isn’t going to last … right?

    • Lol right? The problem is knowing that someone that you voted out from the other side will come back and you might get screwed because of it if your not careful, if Becky gets eliminated, her and Jackie needs to fight their way back in like their lives depend on it.

      • I was thinking that. If Jackie comes back at least she has James and Meg waiting for her. I actually hope Becky comes back but she is very angry with Meg right now. She is blaming Meg and James for not evicting Vanessa.

    • Well, doesn’t everybody want everybody out eventually? In the end, there can only be one winner. When it gets down to the wire, the alliances will have to take each other out. That’s the name of the game. Only one survives; hopefully Vanessa is the one!

      • Meg is everybody’s way to the winners circle??
        …Just let her do nothing like she has proven she can and will do. You don’t need to even bother teaming up with a Tomato can of a gameplayer like Peg Leg Meg she presents no problem at all!!

      • Just keep dragging her do nothing butt to the finish line, hell I would make that final two early with her. She would guarantee a first place nod for you in the end…

  300. Steve just told Vanessa and austwins why he didn’t put up austin as bd, because for two days Vanessa Manipulated him, she got in his ear and made him do things…wowwww

  301. Omg why would Steve make a such a stupid move. I used to like Steve but not anymore.

    • While everyone talks about Vanessa’s game play Steve is under the radar but he is managing to play all sides of the house while not becoming a target of any side. Its really amazing. He is beginning to look a lot like Andy from BB 15. He roams around the house talking game with everyone, acting like he has no idea what’s going on, except that he knows everything that is going on in the house. He is winning comps when he has to and throwing comps when he can.

      He just evicted Jackie with Meg on the block and James and Meg are not holding him responsible!

      Even Vanessa is not not sure what Steve is going to do, although he seems to prefer her protection for the time being.

      There are still weeks to go but if Steve manages to survive a few more weeks then turn on his comp performance, he could wind up winning this thing – much to Vanessa’s surprise.

      • I feel like everyone is hating on Steve because he didn’t evict the HG THEY wanted to see evicted. I remember when Ian tried to go for Frank in the first DE and ended up evicting Ashley instead, and everyone mocked him for wasting his HOH. How did Ian do that season, again?

      • He has no alliance and can’t really believe Van would keep him safe, I do like the comparison tho I said something similar earlier!

  302. Vanessa is the big winner tonight period,she survived and that is bad news for Becky and Johnny Mac and frankly James has no base of support anymore.

    • The Austwins are going to take in Meg and James. They talked about it tonight. They appreciate that James did not put them on the block.

      I am waiting for the Austwins to realize they cannot win as long as Vanessa is in the house.

  303. Shelli was evicted last week when Clay went home,she lost a vote but more important someone who could have won the POV and saved her,she had no back-up eviction night,the uncoupling was fatal to her game.

  304. The right move for Steve tonight was to take out Becky,that should have been his number one target,go for a strong player when you got the chance,Meg. or Jackie could be taken out at anytime..hep.

    • This was my thinking also, Jackie and Meg would be as suitable next week Steve? Could have made a big move but nope’d it away.

    • Because Steve’s move was engineered by Vanessa and she wanted to take out the Goblins without getting blood on her hands or breaking her DE deal.

      Steve reasons for taking out Jackie were stupid. First, he knew the Austin BD plan. There is no way Steve, who knows everything in the house, didn’t know Austin was the BD plan and not him.

      Then this other nonsense about not making a connection with Jackie? That’s a game move? Seriously? Jackie was on Vanessa’s radar for a while. As Becky said, she stood up to Vanessa so she was a target.

      • That’s a good outlook but does Steve really believe John or Van really has creepy Steve’s back? And would now trust Mr Storage to have theirs?

      • Van and Steve have a weird relationship. Neither of them intend on making good on their F2 deal, but they are useful to each other in the near-term, especially with the jury buyback coming up. One of them is going to get the other. It’s just a matter of gauging the house and winning the right comp.

        John, OTOH, needs Steve. He has very little solid support because of his early floater game, so he needs a fellow early floater. Yes, he will take Becky to the end over Steve, but John and Steve’s deal is much more long-term than the Van/Steve deal.

      • Good insight makes sense…I see it a lil differently but can appreciate a good argument with strong opinions!!! Well played:)

  305. Also another dynamic now at play here is the jury house-the people who you send out determine your fate at the end,so how they go home can make or break a winner but also how the person played the game through out the summer,tonight the game finally got serious as they now march to the final two.Derrick won the final vote based on respect on how he played the game,right now respect this season is a endangered species.

  306. If van goes to the final two nobody’s going to vote for her. She has done every one dirty and that’s gonna bite her on her ass even though she is the only one playing the game to win. If Becky would have kept her mouth shut van would be gone. She made a point of telling them to never use the v word and she told everyone before the night was over. I want to see her sitting next to Johnny Mac in the final two she won’t have a chance. I hate how she’s talking to Steve and I do believe he is so much smarter than she is. Another week of hearing her talk and talk and talk makes you want to stick a ice pick in your ear. I dvr everything so I can fast forward her when I have had enough of her. Becky should go because she couldn’t keep her mouth she hurt her whole team just to be friends with shelli.

    • I agree, Becky was too cocky and she played both sides, so she’ll get whats coming to her

      • No side really trusts Becky,not really..has no real friends in the house,her cocky attitude this week is a fatal flaw in anyone’s game plan on BB.

      • That’s why it’s even more odd Becky is not in the jury house at this very moment!!! Steve has been preaching bout dropping her off at the next stop for a while now…..Gets in charge has the shot to pull the trigger and shoots Jackie cause she’s just not into you???? He is a fan of the show clearly knows who the hell is running things and takes out the smallest of threats to him????

      • Lol, I know! I am hoping the smartest player wins the game and right now I don’t know who that is. Vanessa may come a little closer to being that but Austin is also not too bad either considering he is easily running Liz’s decisions. Austin just want to have as many numbers behind him, which is smart on his part. Vanessa the same.

    • Andy won and he was a bigger rat than Vanessa. People in the house talk about how good Vanessa is at playing the game. They will vote for her if she is final two. I think BB tells them not to hold grudges since everyone is playing the game and the object is to get everyone else out of the house.

      • Totally agree,they will vote for a player who does anything to survive and Vanessa is a survivor.

      • “I’m a survivor. I’m not gon’ give up. I’m not gon’ stop. I’m gon’ work harder.” That should be Vanessa’s theme song. Keep on survivin’ Vanessa!

  307. Anybody else intrigued by the idea of a JMac-Vanessa-Steve alliance to rid the house of the village idiots? Think about it…

    1. Neither JMac or Steve feel safe around either Goblins or Austwins.
    2. Steve would have both of his buddies in his Alliance.
    3. JMac’s chances of furthering himself in game would dramatically improve, and he could eventually oust his nemesis, Vanessa, in F3.
    4. The ultimate irony is that Vanessa already had it “in the works”, yet somehow Austin/Judas came up with a brilliant plan for Vanessa to have a “fake threesome” with them…and the twins are all on board!

    Perfect! (Or scripted?)

    Either way…….Go, Johnny, go!!!

    • I do find it interesting that Vanessa talked F3 with the twins about 2 hours before offering a F3 with JMac and Steve.

      However, the village idiots are still talking about joining forces for F6. But being village idiots they decided to bring Vanessa into it. Ugh!

      • Yes, but think about it from Vanessa’s perspective:

        1. Austin and twins are pretty tight…She’s first to go.
        2. JMac and Steve win comps.

        She feels she can persuade Steve to do her bidding. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!!!

      • And her talk means what exactly? If Vanessa decides to take a gremlin to final, gremlin should win because they managed to get through.

    • It wouldn’t be a solid one. I would expect Jmac and Steve to ride with Vanessa for a while, but then boot her at F5 or F4.

      • Yeah me too but seems like a lot of wishful thinking!!!…..Liz is got the power so to speak, but Van’s calling the shots….Right now Van has positioned herself to take out each dummy with lil effort unless something crazy happens…..Sending Shell over Van might prove to be everyone has been suckered into an unwinnable hand!!!

  308. Btw love the “What Do You Want?” and “Whatever” from Vampire Dentist. It surely cracked people up. Even Julie couldn’t help smiling! Haha!

  310. What?? I didn’t catch all the feeds but Jokers is saying that Austwins and Vanessa are making two six person alliances with James and Meg on one side and Steve and JMac on the other. I guess they are hoping JMac does not reveal this to Becky.

    to me this is all overkill. There are 5 of them including Steve and they have the current HOH. Soon it will be 5-3 or 5-2-1. All this overplanning is just s stupid waste of time and can only work for 1 week. It has Vanessa written all over it.

    Vanessa’s strategy musts be lets throw so much stuff out there people’s heads spin. Sounds a lot like Audrey.

    Does anyone think Audrey deserved to win this game?

  311. Since Smug Shelli left with her boytoys’ sweatshirt, all of the ones are out that I DEFINITELY did not want to win, except Vanessa. As soon as she goes, I’ll be happy with any of the others. Pulling for James at this moment.

  312. Becky is summing up Vanessa’s game play this season in the “best” way possible with of all props……………….”Fruity Pebbles”! She calls Vanessa the “group chameleon” (perfect name). “Even “Twin Evil” is getting it. Becky is smarter than we give her credit for. Damn, James for blowing – up her game and the house for that matter! Nobody 4 EVER!!!

  314. Steve is a super fan of big brother and he does not know how to play the game if either steve or meg win bb 17 they will be the worst Winner in bb history

    • I think he knows how to play. He’s trying to make himself as small a target as possible for everyone while winning some comps along the way–putting up the two weakest players left says a lot. The only problem is, he will need some help along the way. He must know he has to crack the Austwins and Vanessa to win. Only problem is, he needs other people to help him do it–otherwise, he might be left having to win HOH or POV every week. Which leads to the obvious question–where is his help going to come from? They’re walking out the door in a hurry.

      • He won my challenges than shelli 2 and Steve 3 but shelli is the better player steve is creepy

      • If Johnny mac makes it to final 2 against anyone his wins because he is will liked it won’t be about game play

      • But making yourself a small target can only last but so long. The beauty is when one knows when to come out with guns blazing. (For those who do not understand, this is just a figure of speech. )

  315. Out of all the seasons of BB, and yes, I’m a SuperFan, this is the first time in the history of the feeds being online, that I have not watched the hamsters live in action. It seems to me that AG tried to recreate last season, all the way down to many of the comps, and it’s just not working for me. Maybe Derrick and hit HitMan over did it for me last year, so imho, this season is so completely boring…. *YAWN*
    So I’ll be here, looking forward to BB18 and that’s sooo far away – That is if AG is lucky enough to get a season 18.

  316. I feel like shelli got robbed the final 2 should have been vanessa and shelli it still could be if shelli wins her way back in her and vanessa just take out everyone

    • I really hope that happens. Vanessa and Shelli are the two strongest players this season! That would be an awesome final 2! Vanessa would have to win, of course!

  318. I officially can’t stand Steve anymore. Jackie was one of my favorites and he kept going on and on and on about how he wanted to get rid of Becky, he had his chance, he just didn’t have the guts to do what he kept preaching he wanted to do. If James gets evicted too, I’m not watching the rest of the season. The twins are starting to get on my nerves.
