Big Brother 17 — Sorry, everyone, not much to report…

by Lisa Marie Bowman on September 18, 2015

Hi, everyone!

To be honest, I nearly didn’t do an update today because there’s absolutely nothing going on in the Big Brother House.  There’s only three people left and Vanessa, Steve, and Liz aren’t exactly the most interesting people around.  I did see Steve doing some speculation on how every member of the jury would vote but he still doesn’t seem to understand that Vanessa cannot be beaten.

That’s right, I said it.  I’m not a huge Vanessa fan but the fact of the matter is that, in a final two situation, it’s hard to imagine anyone beating her.  Neither Liz nor Steve seem to understand that.  Liz, I can understand.  She doesn’t really know much about the show and she spent the past two months hanging out with Austin so she really doesn’t have a great understanding of the jury.  But Steve is supposed to be a superfan.

Liz is apparently worried that Austin is going to end up falling in love with Jackie in the jury house.  Wow, it’s almost as if Austin has a history of cheating on his girlfriends that first chance that he gets.

Actually, the biggest Big Brother news appears to be taking place outside the house.  I have seen so many people on twitter and Facebook talking about how they are not being allowed to vote.  Apparently, a lot of those people have sent tweets to Jeff Schroeder because, earlier tonight, he tweeted that he knew about the voting problems and was contacting CBS to see what was going on.

In other words, Jeff is on the case!

Sorry, I know that’s not much of an update but I can only work with what I’m getting from the house and right now, I’m not getting much.  Hopefully, someone will go crazy this weekend or Liz will end up sleeping with Steve or something and then I’ll have more to talk about!

The voting is now working. Thanks for all you insightful updates this season. As a Canadian I couldn’t get the live feeds so your blog was great!

Thank you Lisa. I know this must be so frustrating to you. You always give us information, but you can’t get milk out of a turnip!! 🙂 In spite of it all, you hang in there and we all appreciate it. I don’t know if you read on the previous post, but I was able to vote over 50 times for one HG. I could have kept on going, but I had to go to the store! ????????
Later!! 😎

I really don’t like Vanessa, have not from the start but she has played all of them. Her paranoia drove me nuts, drove everyone nuts but she is still there. They were all too stupid to get rid of her early on. I wish JohnnyMac were still there or James but oh well…it’s over. Bleh!!!!!!!

I am sure it would be Vanessa who win the game. The only way Steve can win
if Vanessa does not win competitions and then Austin can convince e the jurors to vote for Liz .I think most of the house went along with he decisions then they will vote for Vanessa.

Fun spot last night was Steve’s FIRST shower in the buff (sans his blue swim trunks). He came out wrapped in a towel searching for his back brush, running thru the kitchen, living room & into the circus room with no results, so back to the shower with a white face cloth. The gals got a big chuckle out of his “non attire” for his shower. He commented that it really felt odd taking a shower this way. He’s slowly removing the remnants of red stain from the competition.
Steve & Liz have spent hours & hours studying for what they think the next comp. will be.
Van is showing her age with aches, this being the person who repeatedly said she had 10 hours left in her. My oh my.

Thanks Lisa Marie for your time and trouble and keeping us informed. Some people sre still unable to vote. I finally got on thru a link on Twitter and was able to vote maybe 20 times. I didn’t count. They finally shut me down and said I had voted my limit. My daughter told me she still can’t vote. She is so mad! I am sure some people have given up on voting.

Jeanne4488, Before Johnny Mac left the house, I was voting for James. Now I am voting for Johnny Mac, mainly because I am loyal and I have been rooting for him from the beginning. And, in spite of everything, I am voting for Steve for the same reason. I was always on the side of Johnny, Steve, James and Meg! That was after it was down to Austin, the twins and Vanessa! I really did not want any of them to make the finals, but it happened because of poor playing! So, we will soon find out. I hope ( and pray) Steve wins the next comps! Fingers crossed. Hummmm, is it redundant to pray and cross your fingers? Doesn’t seem right somehow! Oh well, nothing about this season of BB seems right! 🙂 I will be checking back …….
Later!! 😎

*************************SPOILER ALERT*****************************************

About 7:50 BBT,the LFS went to Jeff highlights. So apparently, the 2nd part of the finals has begun. If you turn on BBAD, you will see reruns of last weeks shows with Julie. So hey have been at it about an hour and a half as of now. And of course,it is just Steve and Liz playing. I know from last night that Liz was VERY sore, as was Van, but I don’t think this comp shuld be phyisical. Or at least not totally. Sty tuned!!

@sherry…..I haven’t been on the blog for a day or so. Did read your goodnite shout out tho and appreciated it!!! I did gt your email and will respond when I get time!!!! lots going on with clients this time of year, getting ready for the holidays. I did finish my decorating and it looks great! SO nice to have the summer stuff down and put away. Feels so fresh!! And we are going out of town all day tomorrow. Hoping the rain lets up!!!

@jeanne4488….I totally hear ya!!!lo I voted for James the 1st day 20 times and it felt like it took forever!! I lost track and was getting dizzy watching all the refreshing……;) SO when it was down Iws likePHEW…I’m off the hook!!!lol I might go vote again, but he’s a shoe in. I don’t see what a few more voted from me is going to matter!!

Steve and Liz were horsing around like a lil bro and sister earlier. So when the announcement came down about the comp, I bet they were totally unprepared!! Last nite on BBAD was beyond bad!!! the girls went to bed at like 9:00 and Steve was up all alone studying and trying to appease the LFers!! Finally the girls got up too, but no one talked much. They just ate and stared. Bleh!!!

If BB want me back next season the Finale must be an endless reel of moments that show the most annoying behavior of all of the houseguests. Then have Whoopie Goldberg grab the giant $500,000 check and deliver it to the Sisters of the Poor Mother Theresa Fund.

Liz now had to hope that someone takes her now or she is DONE!
Sounds like comp was clues and then they got like scrambles that they had to make the answers from.
Steve says it was a mental comp with a physical component.
I guess a double eviction question that stumped Liz for 3 minutes!!!! She should have spent more time paying attention to the game and less time sucking face with Judas!!lol

I heard a twitter leak on FB…..said that Austin didn’t want to leave the house and tried to get Van to undo her vote!!!!! What a frigin’ baby! I have no respect or him at all!! He’s a cheater and a poor loser and vain as all get out! And that’s just from what I KNOW! SO glad they got him out while they had the chance!!!

I don’t see how anyone can think Vanessa played a good game. She is responsible for all the boredom this year. she is a “Bully”. Week after week, you knew everyone was going to vote the way she forced them to do. The only person who ever did his own thing was James. I also don’t see John as the $25,000 winner???? Why?

O/T @ tendr i am here, our house SOLD after on the market for 5 years, it sold when we took it off the market ! go figure, we don’t have to use a realitor, lawyer will do everything for 350.00 aint that great. realitor got so mad, said she sold it, nope she showed it and when the contract ended we did not sign for another contract.
now we have to find another House to make our Home, so exicted. we went house hunting, found a few we want to live in another town, look at realitor.com to see if any pictures, if we like it, we do drive by’s to see the outside, we go see it all inside and out. we have 30 days.

@ Starfish hi good to see ya

@Star thanks for the update, glad Steve won p2, now do they all play in 3rd comp?

going to try to vote again, voting for James, JMac is a dentist, he will make money. James was happy and funny, he made me laugh 🙂

Why does everything be think James deserves the money more than JM. All he did was play silly pranks. JM came back I. After being evicted And made it to final five. He won competitions and if you are talking about needing the money…he has a $250,000 student loan debt. also he was pretty much the only entertainment this year.
