As someone who never lost faith in Janelle, it is time to dance!!!! For Marci & Howie (even though both are on my nerves).

Thread is getting long, so I edited to remove my dancing cat, in case any dial-up peeps want to access this thread.

Did anyone get a shot of Mike's 'Oh my god, I'm dead. I am so dead' face? I think we have one for the record books.

... when you realize that the elevator is about to go into free fall.

Boogie's face was PRICELESS!! He had no idea!
(I really think it was painful for Janelle to evict Will, but I think Erika shook her into reality--that at least now she has a real 1 in 3 chance to win.)

Well...boogie does not seem to p*ssed does he now ?
Jumping off the mountain...what a baby !!

Back to the living room. Julie asks nominated hamsters to state their case. E thinks J will make the right choice. W wants to be kept away from sequester and evicted hamsters as long as possible.

Janelle is asked to stand and make her eviction. She's made a lot of mistakes this summer, done making mistakes, for Marci and Howie, she evicts Will.

Boogie: oh g-d. Will acts okay with her decision. Boogie looks upset.

Will goes out to greet Julie. Boogie congratulates the ladies. He's shaking his head. J goes to bathroom to prepare for endurance. E joins her, 'they were so surprised'. J - 'I'm such a brat'. E - 'you were awesome'. They high-5. Boogie sitting in eviction chair shaking his head.

Will - lies caught up with him, did the best he could, hoped for the best, underestimated Erika, may be a decision J regrets in the future, will wish she made a different decision, will remain friends with J in the future, flirtmance was a game all along, she was playing him as much as he played her. He is shocked to be 4th place. Boogie's relationship with E up in the air, he's in the house with 2 strong women.

Goodbye messages.

Will the guy who finds the shot of Mike's face of doom also put up one of the Chen-bot throwing a rod when Will said "you and I have chemistry"?

Thanks tons.

Guess I'll cheer for Janelle now, but I think her eventual victory is inevitable.

You're the guy that doesn't watch football until the Superbowl and then comes to the party with the favored team jersey on, aren't you?

I don't care how much Will says it's all good, he is dying inside that he was voted out. So transparent in his replies to Julie and I am disappointed in some of his thinly-veiled responses.

This is priceless...the look on Boogie's face. Big Brother sleezeball is not so excited about his showmance now! Janelle is so freakin awesome!!!! I was getting aggravated w/her for being played but I'm so glad she finally saw the light!

The HoH competition is an endurance competition, each houseguest has to hold on to a big key standing on the side of a big paper machier volcano. Janelle and Boogie look pretty uncomfortable in the positions they have chosen. Erika looks like she could stand there until Christmas.

Boogie quits a minute in, convinced each one will have no choice but to bring him along to the end (he might be right, but telling them that may not have been the smoothest move. -- He's clearly flustered by Will's departure.)

The HOH competition has started. The three are on some sort of volcano in the by. They have to hold on to a key. Within one minute of the comp...Mike Boogie says" Hey julie....."

J: Yeah Mike.

B: Remember Richard Hatch from survivor?

J: Yes, Mike.

Boogie proceeds to jump off saying that the girls cannot take each other to the final two. They have to take me. Janelle you made a smart move tonight. You know you cannot take her. Think of all her friends.

Erikas says we cant take him Janelle. He played us too hard.

Janie says she's holding on.

Boogie makes the dumbest move ever and jumps off right away.

eta: And he sits on the sidelines and pouts. Awwwwwwwwwww.

OMG! Why in the world did he just do that? I am completely lost!

He thought he would have a better chance in winning in part 2 against Erika. But now that Erika is winner of part 1, he has to compete against Janelle anyways. So his face should get even longer now.

Who wants to bet Boogie will still be pouting in the backyard 24 hours from now?

What a butthead.

LAST EDITED ON 09-05-06 AT 08:59 PM (EST)

Janelle has her competition gloves on and rearing to go. I SOOOO want Boogie gone, he's the 2nd biggest jerk of the house, after Jase & before James & Howie and annoying Marci.

Mount HoH. The have to hold onto their key above their head with feet on little footholds. A volcano shaped monstrosity, like a rock climbing thing.

Boogie drops out, claiming they both have to take him to the finals. Erika needs to drop out now . . . doesn't matter who Janie takes, she wins. If Erika drops, she'll show Janelle her loyalty. TALK girls. Mike is a grade A butthole!!!

ETA -- I still cannot BELIEVE Boogie's arrogance. Janie has to hold on, just in case Erika is lying, but if E really is sincere, she should just drop out with her "promise."

Erika needs to drop out now . That was part of Janelle's 'trust' deal they agreed to. Will be interesting to see of E complies.

OMG, Jsnelle dropped one hand from her key, E wins part one of the HOH competition.

Pssstttt..... Boogie, Richard Hatch is somebody's ##### in prison...watch out with your premonitions, idiot!!!!

First part of Final HOH comp to begin. J/E/B compete. Large volcano in BY, Mt. HOH. They must climb onto one side of volcano and face out, with back to volcano, grab key above them. Must hold key, if let loose of key or feet touch mat below them they are eliminated. For now both hands must have hold of key. Competition begins now.

Now, remember, E is a pilates instructor. OMG, Boogie drops out, says both ladies must take him, can't take each other. E tells J he played them both, J says she's holding on. Boogie is so arrogant it makes me sick.

i was so mad at first b/c i saw janelle take her hand off saying, "what?" after boogie said, "they both have to take me" and I thought julie, as bad as a host she is, didn't see it...GO BOOGIE!

Dear Mike,

Richard won.

Sincerely,
Estee

Richard actually thought it through...

LAST EDITED ON 09-05-06 AT 09:08 PM (EST)

'zactly. He has an argument with Erika -- 'Maybe you could beat me: I have Will's vote, but who else is going to be on my side?' But Janelle? She thinks she can beat Erika or Mike -- and all things considered, I think she'll want to make Chilltown's humilation complete.

And if it's Erika -- well, we did the 'woman scorned' bit already today, so I'll just say 'Ibid' and move on. Much like Erika will. It's no guarantee, though -- she may want to give Mike the ultimate kick to the genitals by beating him in front of the jury.

And now he is in jail......get a new role model moron.

She would say to Janelle "you trusted me enough to boot Will... then I trust you to boot Boogie, too" and then just step off.

LAST EDITED ON 09-05-06 AT 09:01 PM (EST)

It looked like Janelle had one hand come off the key when she turned to see if Mike had really jumped down. Obviously she wasn't disqualified.

There. I've said it. Better me than the six hundred screamers who will be registering in the next two minutes -- right?

No, probably not...

ETA: And as I wrote it, Janelle was taken out for exactly that. Erika wins Part I. Well, at least the mods will have a quiet night.

Erika wins round 1!

After Mike bails (he was clearly uncomfortable and must have realised he would never win -- his thinking that he is the best choice for either one to take along may also be sound, but expressing it out loud was not), Janelle lifts a hand and is caught.

Erika wins the first leg of HoH with a time of about 2 minutes.

Well, for this series -- I think S:Thailand went under a minute. Then again, the Final Three for a pain endurance competition was sort of like having Marcellas, Howie, and Will in the All Anti-Bitter World Finals. Just give the sponsors their money back and go home.

Between Mike's idiocy and Janelle's distraction, the second most expensive competition production the show put on all summer got derailed in something under five minutes. All that money, and not a single bit of endurance/FX footage to show in the next prime time hour. Aww...

I bet that thing was going to spit out boiling hot magma during the closing credits, too.

What a gyp.

... scream 'noooooooooooooooooooooo'!

Boogie is dead meat.
No way erika will go against her word a second time and screw jan if she wins HOH. Sh ehad so much mental and inner hurt and torment turning on Dani that she will for sure send Boogie out no matter how much he tries to talk her into anything.
She has been used and and she is pissed

Now that is funny. Think they'll incorporate the volcano in the next round? Or maybe just toss in Howie as the virgin sacrifice?

LAST EDITED ON 09-05-06 AT 09:20 PM (EST)

Did anyone else hear when Boogie said "Now you can't take each other" that Janelle responded "I wasn't going to"? Was I hearing things??

I just watched again - Boogie -"Janelle, you made the smartest play ever tonight. Now you can't take her." Janell - "I wasn't going to."

i heard j say the say thing to MarkP. wonder if she is really going to take boogie? but i guess she will have to win first. we'll see what happens....go boogie!

That could be taken a few different ways.

You can't take her, as in you can't take her to to the F2, or you can't take her down (beat her), and I'm sure other ways exist.

Considering it was a flip comment, it could be she misunderstood his comment too. I've done that where I've misunderstood someone's question at first, responded, and then realized they had asked something other than what I had thought.

Quick opinion. Do you think Erika will stay true if she wins HOH or do you think she'll bail when she really thinks about who she can win against?

I think they'll have plenty of footage of the girls enduring Boogie's pouting sessions/hissy fits.

Bwahahahahahahaha !!!!!

Lol yeah. All because the chenbot didn't bother making it extremely clear that they shouldn't take off either hand from the keys.

I like how Boogie screwed himself over by disqualifying himself immediately and claiming that both E and J would each have to take him to F2.

How does the two part competition thing work? I wasn't paying attention.

<twists finger into cheek and bats eyelashes>

Last year for Part 2 (after Ivette won endurance), Maggie and Janelle had a competition with numbers that unlocked a padlock if all the numbers were correct.

Then Janelle and Ivette faced off in Part 3. If I remember correctly, the previously evicted HGs answered fill-in-the-blank questions, and Julie gave Janelle and Ivette two possible answers, and they had to pick which was correct. In the end, it came down to a tie-breaker, which Ivette won.

3 parts. Erika won part one. Janelle and Booger will compete in part two. The winner competes against Erika in part 3.


Holey carp! My blog! MySpace!
Official OT Tassel Adjuster and OT Fantasy Football Champ! o-

Now I have to put my faith in someone I'm not so sure of. I only hope that Erika, being a woman who was played ON TV by a slimeball to do humiliating things, thinking for some insane reason that Boogie was a decent human being and relationship material, that Erika will HONOR her promise to Janelle & the girls go to the finals. If Erika takes Boogie, heaven help her, she IS truly pathetic.

Such a shame Janie pulled her hand off by mistake. She fairly blew it, but I do slightly blame Chenbot's lame & questionable instructions. When they ask her "BOTH hands??" Chenbot doesn't say the rules & confirm.

Oh, well. Here's to Erika saving/fixing her reputation as a reality TV's HOmance sucker.

I am with you on this! I really think Erika sees how much she was played and knows the only way she can redeem herself is to go to the end with Janelle and boot Boogie if she gets the opportunity. But...Janie still has 2 more parts to this HOH comp and in previous Janie fashion she will(hopefully)prevail!

The look on Boogie's face as the show ended was soooo scary I would fear for my life if I was Jani and Ericka.......talk about ICY look... they better watch out and sleep with one eye open... I'm not kidding and I'm not laughing.

I am with you on that one! He really looked scary. I think he really might wig out if they aren't careful.

How does the last HOH work...best of three?

Winner of the first stage is exempt from the second stage and moves directly to the third. The remaining two players compete in the second stage. First winner plays against the second winner in the final competition. Whoever takes that one is HoH.

I haven't ever understood that in any of the previous seasons...

.
>When they ask her "BOTH
>hands??" Chenbot doesn't say
>the rules & confirm.
>
Watched it again - when Erika (she was the only one to ask)asked both hands, Chenbot said "For now Yes". Since it was very obvious Chenbot forgot to tell them both hands, this would have had to be replayed if Erika did not ask.

Talk about a ratings killer. Don't think CBS anticipated their high tech, cliff hanger endurance challenge would end in less than a minute thereby eliminating the high tech, cliff hanger and endurance part of it...and I guess the "challenge" part as well.

Let's get one thing straight as well. Will lost this game because of Erika, Erika and especially Erika. She is 100% responsible for his eviction whereas Janelle is 0% responsible.

But, Will didn't lose it with that late night campaign by Erika. No, he lost this game last week when he lost to Erika in the Veto and she stayed in the game instead of George. Will isn't an idiot, he could see the writing on the wall. He knew that with only the 4 of them in the house and all that downtime, it was only a matter of time before the girls compared notes. That's why he tried to stay up in her room with her for the whole night the other night in a last ditch effort to never let her out of his sight.

That's also why he was so insistent to Boogie about getting Erika out last week when they had the chance. It wasn't just because they wanted to battle CG in the F3, it was mostly because he knew that this was going to happen.

He was clearly resigned to his fate as was evident by his comments to Boogie while they were working out and the girls went in to drink wine.

But, at least he went out with class. Not that that is a suprise. He's always been the best person at separating game from real life so its not a suprise that the second he was evicted he was fine with it and not mad at Janelle.

And at least he got that one last shot in at Julie.

As a final note, Will's dominant play in this game and his amazing 4th place finish as the only previous winner and most feared contestant going in only cements his place as the greatest reality contestant of all time....just like I said a month ago. He most definitely didn't need to win it again or make the F2 to prove that.

I agree that Will played an amazing game. For him to reach Final Four with a target the size of the mostly-unused volcano on his back was incredible. But his loss leaves us in a horrible position for a Final Three and choice of winners:

A tagalong who did nothing but follow orders and in no way contributed to anything outside of the gross-out factor, unless you want to count the awesome power of pillow talk.

A victim who not only got played, but was boxed, shrink-wrapped, and sold as a boardgame for ages three and up, all of whom would be mature enough to beat her.

A challenge force with the apparent strategic abilities and insight of Silly Putty.

Umm... yeah. What was Howie's line last year about America's last choices? Given this field to vote for, I'd go with Janelle just because she won something, but I'd rather be casting a ballot for Will.

>I agree that Will played an

I think the "target" on Will's back is a little blown out of proportion. This guy was put up only once wasn't he? Is that such a big target? Season 6 never went after him. Dani never went after him. Who exactly went after Will that he was such a huge target?? Will SHOULD have been a target but in the show I watched he never was.

Will had the target permanently etched the instant he walked through the door as both the only prior winner and the player with the biggest reputation for being a manipulation. His special (if not full-term) genius was in getting people to imitate the Chenbot at nearly every nomination ceremony. "Yes, we have to get rid of Will -- but first...!"

He was always a target because he was always a threat. He just made everyone else believe the weaker players were the greater danger -- and the higher priority. Nice trick if you can pull it off.

No arguments that Will is the most brilliant player in the game but I don't buy the "target" thing. WE all thought he should be a target but in terms of who was "targeted" every week Will almost never was. It is easy to say he was a target because he won and everyone knows his skills, but a target must be targeted to be a target, and he never was (I sound like CG!).

Um no ... Will was a target every single week. But, he was also the hardest working player on the house and worked over each successive HoH to direct the nominations away from his alliance. That Will was able to do this week after week is a testament to his gamesmanship.

He was ultimately undone by two things - Erika's veto win last week that kept her in the house and sent his last pawn, George into sequester (where he seems to have been grossly mistreated by Howie, but I digress).

Second, he failed to win competitions at the end when he needed to. He claims it was strategy not to win, but I think that is just talk. He was trying to win PoV and HoH the last three times and he failed to do it. Had he won on any of those occassions, he would be jumping on his trampoline now and we would be discussing Janelle's poise and grace in her exit interview with Julie tonight.

We learned that a complete game player has to be able to win a competition in the clutch or at the end and Will could not do that. Janelle and Erika, who were able to do that in the end are still there.

"Let's get one thing straight as well. Will lost this game because of Erika, Erika and especially Erika. She is 100% responsible for his eviction whereas Janelle is 0% responsible."

What are you talking about? Janelle voted him out. Erika and Janelle are responsible. They share the victory.

He didn't need to win it again to prove it? I beg to differ. A 14th place finish or 4th place finish mean absolutely squat in the Big Brother world.

Oh look, Clowny thinks one can't have a valid opinion unless one has lots and lots of posts like him.

You're just mad because your favorite got voted out.

In the Previous episode, we left her hanging onto the edge of the cliff, one finger away from plunging to the bottom of the gorge.

BUT, this week, in true heroine fashion, Wonder Woman shakes off the evil spell of Lex Luthor, and foils the sly plans hatched by Him and his evil henchman to...

TAKE OVER THE WORLD.

It was fun and educational to see the master manipulator, Will, work this year. Finally, someone who can actually play the game, and he played it better than any reality player in history. IMO. But it was also nice to see the evil mastermind (and his pesky sidekick) get his comeuppance at the hand of the blond bombshell that he had been leading around by her cute nose, until now. I think this was the best season of BB so far. She Rope-a-doped him.

man5996853, you must learn here that in the World of Clowns its the size of your post count that counts, not what you say. When you can muster up the time to sit in front of your computer for over 3,000 posts then and only then will you be taken seriously. Therefore tonight you must come away with: #1) Janie did nothing at all and deserves no credit #2) Janie did nothing #3) See #1 and #2.

Granted I can't get myself to say that and thats why I was not allowed membership in the LOJH last week after I gave up on her. I thought Janie was a complete moron in this show up until tonight. Tonight I thought she made a very smart move. As brilliant as Will is the final 4 setup was not a good one for him. Sooner or later these 2 girls had to talk to each other (didn't they?) and at that time he would be toast. The fact that Will did not make the final 3 shows that he wasn't quite good enough to set things up the way he really wanted to. Winning a couple challenges near the end may have fixed that but Will chose not to win any .

My only question now is how Janlle and Erika will fair on the Amazing Race?

LAST EDITED ON 09-05-06 AT 09:55 PM (EST)

I hope Jani wins it all in the end. She is at least a fierce competitor, not great with strategy but at least she tries. Boogie and Will but especially Will were good at strategy. What is Ericka good at? endurance? so what, she was asleep for most of this game and just woke up about a week ago when she booted Dani. Of the three left I hope Jani wins. Will can work the sequester house all he wants but I think they are intelligent enough to know better. They will see when Jani said, "this is for Marcellus and Howie" right before she gave Will the boot and maybe at least those two will vote for her, James is up in the air, Dani hates Ericka and as for Boogie, he lied to her minutes before the show telling her she was safe so that may be another vote for Jani, and I think CG may vote for Jani because he admired her alot. Of course all of this is if Jani makes it to the final two. She has to...Long Live the Queen!

LAST EDITED ON 09-06-06 AT 00:33 AM (EST)

James has said many nasty things about Janelle during the game, but seeing his mature behavior during Howie's nasty personal attacks is an indicator that James can also seperate game from real life. He may have had a bad case of sour grapes against Janelle, but ultimatelly she did evict Will. And, I think James can respect that. If Janelle makes it to Final 2, I think James (and possibly Danielle) would vote for her.

I can understand that James looked very mature sitting next to Hurricane Howie (as he made an ##### out of himself), but I think the greatest irony of all was when James said to Howie, something to the effect of, "its just a game, you don't have to make personal attacks." I think it would have made this season a bit easier to watch (or more boring, it's a toss up) if James had taken his own advice while in the house, instead of calling Janie all kinds of horrible personal attack-like names. Just a thought...

I agree with you that James was a jerk while he was in the house. He played very dirty and nasty, was a sore loser, and took the game to a very personal level. But, I can also understand that people's emotions go on overdrive while they're in the house. These people know each other outside of the house. Janelle, Kaysar, James, Howie, and Danielle hung out at the wrap parties last year. I would like to think that these people have the objectivity to value the bonds they have created outside of the house, even if they hate each other as players inside the house. James displayed the maturity to understand the simple concept that many of them (and us) lose track of: Everything that happens in the house is a GAME. Howie, on the other hand, shows that he can't seperate the game from real life. Howie should respect Chicken George for outlasting him in the house, instead of acting like a spoiled 8 year old who won't have his way. I was very disappointed in Howie for his personal attacks, but I was pleasantly surprised with James' behavior. I never thought I would ever praise James for anything. Go figure!

...and now we will find out what will become of his Court Jester?
