Last night on Big Brother 17 the remaining Houseguests had to choose whether John McGuire or Becky Burgess would be evicted as they went inside the Diary Room to reveal their votes. After that it was time for a new Head of Household.
There had been a lot of activity in the past few days of plotting and planning against Vanessa. While CBS tried to make that appear as a danger for her in the current week, most of the talk was actually how to get her out in the upcoming round. This week’s HoH could decide all of that and CBS has confirmed it will be an endurance HoH comp that will play out online so have your Live Feeds ready!
Join us on Facebook, Twitter, and by Email Updates to get all of our latest Big Brother updates.
The votes look stacked against Becky and with her toe injury from the Veto comp it may be best for her to go now, rest up, and get ready for the returning Juror twist that we expect to arrive next week. Maybe we’ll hear more about that in tonight’s show.
Big Brother 17 Week 8 Votes:
- Steve votes to evict Becky
- Vanessa votes to evict Becky
- Meg votes to evict Becky
- Austin votes to evict Becky
- That’s enough votes. It’s official.
- Julia votes to evict Becky
- James votes to evict Becky
By a vote of 6-0, Becky was evicted from the Big Brother house.
The surviving players will head out back for a new competition and if Austin is right, then Vanessa may be willing to throw this comp expecting safety from all sides of the house. Throwing such an important competition seems like a bad idea, but you never know so let’s see what happens.
This week’s Head of Household competition won’t be finished during the show but instead will spill over in to the Live Feeds where we’ll be watching the comp play out until there’s a winner and HG put in control of the next nominations!
Big Brother 17 Week 9 HoH Competition – “Ready, Set, Whoa!”:
- HGs have to hold a running position & “Go!” at the right time in 6 rounds
- Round 1: Meg is last & eliminated
- Find out who won HoH in our endurance competition results post here.
When tonight’s episode ends we’ll be racing back to the Big Brother Feeds to watch the live HoH comp. Join us on there with the Feeds’ Free Trial & see what the fuss is all about.
The new Head of Household will have to make nominations on Friday followed by the Power of Veto competition on Saturday. We’ve got a lot of fun events ahead on the Live Feeds so don’t miss your chance to watch along with us.
Allright, this is our show thread for tonight.
Is this it?
Looks like it.
Can’t wait I’m excited lets get this show on the road!
I have a feeling we will go to bed late if it is an endurance comp.
I can’t wait to watch. What I’m most waiting for is nominations tomorrow.
We might be able to guess when we know you win the HoH. You really think Austwins will throw it to let JMac win ?
I don’t know. They are feeling really safe and don’t want to target anyone so they might.
Can I have Power Shift..please?..
Who’s winning HOH?
James
What about Jmac?
I’m hoping JMac
I’ve lost respect for him. I don’t think he’ll put up Vanessa.
Oh he will.
I think he talks a big game, but we’ll see.
He wants her out bad. I hope he wins. If he does do you think she should be backdoored or put straight up?
That’s a tough one. I would say backdoor to avoid the paranoia.
who else?………………………………….David!
Yay!!!
haha..we’re crazy.
Crazy smart. We know who to cheer for.
OK, I’ll bite: Who is this David you two keep talking about?
ROTFLMFAO
Haha I’ll let Cyril take this one. Oh Cyril….
The person who is not afraid to get blood on their hands or vote against the house will win- oh wait, there is no one left.
I hope they do not have NFL tonight. Last week, I do not know what time they showed Big Brother if at all. Caught the whole episode the next morning. They do not need to show these no bearing NFL games on prime TV slots. They had a show after the football game and it was not Big Brother. Nuts!
It should be cool on the East Coast….
I am in the West Coast so, we get it later over here. It is at 9:00pm Pacific Time normally if it gets shown.
Oh…well, never mind. :)
Please don’t waste air time tonight with stupid things.
They will.
That’s pretty much the whole week. We can only hope for less Austin and Liz.
Showing Jury house early this season. I’m glad.
I love seeing the jury house footage. Sometimes its more fun than the actual show.
I agree.
That must be the biggest action Meg did in the game when she fell.
Oh, Cyril…that’s not nice. Funny, but not nice. :)
lol..ok
Not according to Clay.
Maybe it knocked some sense into her.
Well what week is “THE WEEK” to backdoor Vanessa, Liz? Nobody 4 NOW!!!
This is so stupid. Immature idiot.
It’s funny. Has to get boring in the house.
I love the plastic wrap. I once did it on a car that was a blast
Ever do it on a toilet? Put the plastic wrap under the seat—wait for the boyfriend to go—HY-STERICAL!
At the time I worked at a bar and the plastic wrap was about a foot long went under the car up and around.
When they left a little bit drunk they could not figure how to get in
Too funny, Elaine!
Not to be gross but try putting a tampax in a can of beer it sounds like alka seltzer soooo funny
Ewww
You can hear it from about 10-15 feet away.IT IS SO FUNNY
Lol ewwww
I’m going to try it.
You go girl !!
I’m thinking maybe Julia chooses Jmac over Steve.
I think so too.
Me three.
Me four.
Ok, me 5
Julia and JMac final two. Not.
No not F2. Just that she may try to get them to dump Steve and keep Jmac to be HER meat shield. Idk.
Really?! No! (sarcasm)
Sge thinks she can flirt with him and control him. She knows she can’t Becky.
whats happened so far im in pacific time.. :P
Not much recapping the week.
thanks lemme know the way the votes go
Nothing. Lol
Wow..Looks like Steve is going to get a family edit..They must be intrigue with his game.
…and they did. lol the whole town + Mayor? is supporting him. .that was cool!
Yes it was.
What’s really scary, is a grown man wearing a cat hat.
Haha very scary.
And sad.
Steve with the (hair) ‘do!
Funny how some were convinced it was a puzzle comp and endurance was next week. I guess you never know.
Expect the unexpected. LOL
Yep the big takeover
No ya’ll were. Matthew and I were hoping for endurance.
Well I never made a guess cause I have no idea lol.
Well to be fair we just love the physical ones. Like to see them fight for it. Questions boring
Wow, they really are stretching this episode with pointless filler tonight.
Crazy steve looks quite nice tonight though.
He got a haircut today by James.
Haha nice
Surprised James didn’t shave “Kick me” into it.
Haha good one.
lol! I suppose he’s trying to butter steve up
BUT-TTTTTTTTEEEERRRRRRRR!!!!!
Nooooo my eye is going to start twitching if I hear that again.
Lol. Mine too!
LOL
Apparently the twins had their roots done and James got a fresh new cut.
If Becky goes tonight and Vanessa or Steve win HoH I’m pretty sure Vanessa is going to win this season. The other HG’s have missed their opportunity and the “Trio” is still together. If Vanessa wins HoH the house will be 5 against 3 (Vanessa, Steve, Austin, Liz, and Julia vs. James, Meg, John)……….bad odds with only 6 weeks left in the game. Nobody 4 REAL!!!
I hope Vanessa wins HOH and puts up Austin and Liz. They were too scared to take her out and wanted someone else to do it.
That would be fun to watch if by some chance she wins.
Oh, yes. They should have taken her out.
Wait for the argument with Austin if she does…
That’s exactly what she is going to do if she wins HoH. The “Trio” are the last group/alliance in the house and the biggest obstacle to her reaching “final four”……………..the rest of the HG’s are “fish in a barrel” for DJ ‘Nessa! Nobody 4 EVER!!!
Awww..Steve is getting the Judd treatment. How sweet!
Now see, I can’t be mad at Steve with all that. I don’t want to think about him being a nice person. I need to see him as a villain/spoiler.
Think thoughts of Andy…..
Don’t feel bad. Steve has been a rat all summer long.
Not as much of a rat as Andy. Andy was just plain evil.
I hated Andy!
Jmac’s outfit tonight is hilarious. I love him!
I was thinking the same thing.
He knows he’s staying.
Dang it…Disqus is making it impossible for me to keep commenting.
How long has Steve waited to say those 5 words?
Since day 1 lol
Jackie can taste Vanessa’s blood..she needs to go back. lol
Yep I wanted Shelli to go back but I wouldn’t mind Jackie either.
I think Shelli will go after her too.
Either one would do it.
I think any Juror will go for Van..
I don’t want Becky back. She gets on my nerves watching her on the feeds.
lol really?
Nom nom nom.
Bye bye Becky.
Let’s see if she hobbles out the door like she was doing around the house. And her toe was wrapped so I want to see her shoes. See if she was milking it.
She does have flat sandles on. But she’s walking fine. Why did Austin have to carry her around today.
Steve looked so happy! He can have John all to himself now!
What is CBS going to do now? There is so much time left.
Watch Liz and Julia’s roots grow?
Lol
Julia has to tinkle? Better hope it’s not endurance.
Lol
She’ll just pee herself.
It is endurance.
Did Meg and James try at all to keep Becky in the house this week? I wanted to root for those two but they are just so clueless it’s not even funny. Becky was one of the few people in the house actually on their side.
Julie’s face lol.
Lol wtf is up with steve’s good bye message to Becky? That kid is either just super fake or bi polar.
You have to play nice with jurors or else you don’t have their vote in the end. That cost Dan the game in BB14.
oooo that is right. That little weasel is slicker than I give him credit for.
Once the jury phase start, you have to be a little careful handing out your goodbye messages to people you are glad to see leaving.
Or come back, in this case also.
He said this week he was going to be nice to Becky before she left just in case she is the one who returns.
Smart kid.
It’s smart to leave a nice message. Especially to the ones in jury.
Smart Becky, go after Liz
I admire Becky for appreciating Vanessa’s game play…that’s all I can say.
Funny to hear she would go after Liz if she come back.
Yep again
Yep
Hey I am impressed with her interview. She even said Vanessa message was fair enough after her targeting her. Yep. She did well.
Did you (all) hear that audience response? I said Becky would be a “fan favorite”, future All – Star, and she deserved better than a 6 – 0 eviction. The only regret Becky should have is playing with this season of (wannabe) HG’s that is all IMO. Nobody 4 LATER!!!
These people needs brutal zing.
Love ZingBot
Isn’t that the truth.
So we might see the start of the HOH.
We will.
Wow, was the week that boring that they had to show a Zingbot montage?
It’s going to be this HOH comp.
No Zingbot will be for the veto comp.
Oh I thought Julie was talking about this comp now. She was just talking about a preview? Wondered why ZingBot was going to be hoh comp and not POV.
She said we would see Zingbot next week. Should be for the Wednesday show.
Gotcha.
That’s why I DVR the show. I rewatch it because I miss some when I’m on here.
Yes, yes it was.
Love Zingbot, already looking forward to it.
This looks good.
Becky woulda killed this.
Unless she got hit by a train.
OMG! this comp is so awesome!
I love it. At least it’s a new one.
Is it cheating if you yell “Go” and it doesn’t say that and others jump off (false start) and are eliminated?
Now that would be funny.
This could be long..the word could appear in 30 min..is that right?
Yep up to thirty minutes.
They know we’re hungry to see who wins this! Lol. Vanessa looked intense.
stop looking for flaws..lol
I was looking for ways to get an edge. Lol.
I’m a shortie obviously. Lol
Vanessa’s already on it, I’m sure.
Lol
Don’t worry nobody is smart enough to think of that.
Rules is GO on the sign board.
Exactly why yelling Go could create a false start. I didn’t hear Julie say they couldn’t.
Could create confusion when you’re on the edge.
But that would be the point.
Yes. :). False starts are eliminated.
Exactly. I’m saying, no rule against it.
Exactly. :)
Wow, this requires a ton of focus. This is intense.
Meg is out first. Shocker of all shockers.
Meg is worthless!
I wouldn’t even be mad if Meg was sent home before Vanessa.
Oh, Meg
Why am I not surprise ?
Could it be a DE, followed by a comp to bring back someone ?
Ok, it’s one out of four that get a chance to reenter.
Meg, Meg, Meg you picked the wrong show to go on. Should of went on “The Dating Game”.
Wheel of Fortune. I can see her very enthusiastically buying a vowel.
Lol
Lol
Time for the feeds. Hope they come up quick. Bye
Are we gonna be on this thread?..LG..Capt?
I don’t have the feeds this year. I resisted.
Yep I’ll keep checking back.
YES!!…the FEEDS will be great!!
See you there.
Keep us posted.
Matt will probably beat me to it. Feeds are still down. Ugh!
Lots of pissed off people on twitter.
Depending on you guys to keep me updated! I have to head to work now :(
Have a good night!
Why are all the votes to evite all lopsided no close votes
Because no one will vote against the house (Vanessa)
Summer 08 looks like vanessa is going to jury next week who is hoh now
Austin is HOH!
What was the big announcement? I missed it.
Next Thursday the 4 evicted play to return.
And Zingbot returns on Wednesday.
Oh, good. Thanks
Yes, Zingbot returns! Austin & Liz are gonna get it!
Should be good.
(Surprise) a jury member will return.
:'( Becky…
Win the next HoH comp JMac! I really really wish see Becky rejoin to the game!
The one with the greatest concentration and patience will win. I wonder who that is?
V looked intense to me. If I was Austin and I saw her face, no way I’d throw it. We’d go to Smack Down City. Surely he feels hairs on back of his neck standing up! She’s visualizing the argument now – staging the fight.
She was just before Meg. I think she’s out next.
Let’s hope!
She nowhere near athletic enough to win this. Her strenght is in her head.
Vanessa has ADD.
I believe even if he tried hard and lost, he’s going to say he threw the game. lol
Yeah, i did that on purpose….lol. I see him stumbling over his feet.
Frustrated still no feeds.
Your are not enjoying Jordan (again)?
Lol. Love Jordan but I want to see this comp.
I’ve got no TV right now. Rain fade.
The way this house flip-flops I wonder if it actually makes a difference who wins HoH tonight.
Jokers said someone from another BB site said Vanessa won..Not sure if that would be a heat or the comp.
I doubt that very much. Must be a hoax.
Nope still going on. I read Julia is out.
What other site? There is only one live feeds.
I see feeds back on twitter.
feeds are back on. Julia and Meg are out.
feeds back to Jeffish.
Vanessa false started and is out.
Yassssss!
Are you joking right now??? Wth??? Why are live feeds not staying on???
Suggestion for Zingbot: “Why is there a homeless man in the house ? Oh sorry, it’s Austin.”
feeds are back. Austin, James, steve and JMac still in it
All the girls out, all the men in.
They just ran but I cant tell who won. feeds off again.
Seems some buzzers didn’t work.
I guess production doesn’t want us to see they messed up again.
I think James is at a disadvantage in this one because he has short legs. Austin has a lot of body to launch. JMac the favorite?
feeds back then off. This is maddening. We pay for this crap why are they torturing us?
Total bs!!
Damn! Come on James!
What’s worse than no feeds? Highlights of Shelli being Shelli!
Funny how Steve and Austin talked about throwing this comp and there they are right in there with the final 3.
That’s what I’m saying….if James doesn’t win, he’s going out!
feeds back. James Steve and Austin still in it.
u r lying!
No, Really.
feeds off I think because the bench warmers are singing.
They are still reviewing JMac missing the button. LOL
The bench people should just shut up while the people still in it are trying to concentrate. Of course its the twins with the big mouths making most of the noise.
I read on twitter James is heckling Steve.
If Steve wins he is not going to put up Vanessa. That’s why he has not thrown this comp yet. He wants to keep her.
Steve is out now.
Hope James win, at this point.
That would mean it’s over and Austin wins…right? So James is not out!
It just Austin and James.
One more race.
Come on James!! Don’t let Austin win!!
There a whole bunch of people on twitter that are threatening to commit a ritual suicide if Austin win.
Is over. Austin won..
F***K Austin won HoH.
Great. Another week of the soft core XXX in HOH room
Want to bet he is not putting up Vanessa ?
No. I’d lose if I said he would
He’s going to be a wimp and put up JMac and Meg.
I don’t think he will either. He is afraid of her. He is all talk. He will put up JMac and Meg.
Yeap. He will use the excuse that he want to wait after someone from jury come back
Then he will find another excuse.
At some point, he will need to get rid of Julia if he wants his sweetheart to make F2 with him. The person he most trusts outside the 3 is Van. That is if she plays her cards correct. Too much more paranoia & he “might” change his mind
It was really close but Austin’s height was definitely an advantage because he could reach further for the button.
Now watch Austin back out of putting up Vanessa. He is going to chicken out and put up JMac and Meg.
I guess Austin’s long legs won out. Goodbye James. I knew that punk wasn’t going to throw it.
Long arms. He just beat James but James’ body was slightly ahead of Austin.
Feeds off- AGAIN!
Austin was motivated because now he can stay up in the HoH room groping and smothering Liz. Perhaps this is the week he breaks her neck while holding her face in place so he can kiss her before she squirms away.
OMGosh, that’s HILARIOUS… whoops, you okay Liz? Liz? Liz?
Austine is a coward,has spent his whole time either hiding behind Vanessa or the twins,nothing but a paper tiger,no guts,no glory!(or 500,000)
You fought hard James… Great try!
If I was Johnny Mac.. I would convince the Austwins and the crew to throw the HOH.. allow me to win…then i would put Vanessa on the block next to Austin….the Austin and his Angels be goin crazy…tears will be flowing .. I would deal with Austin..and everybody else EXCEPT Vanessa.saying if anyone wins they can pull austin off then i would blindside Liz leaving Vanessa and Liz on the block
