Sunday, August 27, 2006:   Wishing Everyone A Very Merry Christmas

It's Christmas today in the BB house.  Will there be snow?  Can't say for sure,  but there will be presents.  Will Santa be checking to see who's naughty and nice?   Will anyone get coal in their stocking?  Check back for our Christmas report,  later today. 

Which former houseguest calls Dr. Kirby, "Wilma" ? Nicole Nilson BB2

9:35AM BBT:    Might be a musical wake-up, I bet it's Christmas music.  10:35AM Still
11:15AM BBT:  Looks like they had Christmas without us.    Neil Patrick Harris was there, but we weren't invited.  Will is very happy about his Christmas.  Will listed Neil Patrick Harris as his favorite actor, and rumor has it that NPH is a fan of BB.  George got a camera, that Will says is a really good one.  All the fun must have tuckered little Danielle out, she's napping in the bug room.  The guys and gals got new undies.   Will's other Christmas wish is to see Janelle and Erika jump on the trampoline in their underwear. 

11:30AM BBT:  Will tells Janelle that before the show started, he told Boogie, "Mark my words, I'm getting Neil Patrick Harris on the show.  And he was like 'No way.'"  NPH ate slop with them, and did a DR.  Will's completely star-struck and giddy and hopes to see NPH outside the house. 

11:45AM BBT:  Everyone went back to sleep.  1:30PM  Will hasn't slept much, he up now doing laundry.  his housemates are still in their beds, Mike's restless and hanging onto his pillow.  George is up.  He's very pleased with his Chuck Taylor All-Star sneakers,  and that he got his picture taken with Doogie Howser. 

Erika's awake now too.  She said it was crazy to wake up and see Neil Patrick Harris in a Santa suit waking her up. 

Will thinks the ratings must be good or NPH wouldn't have come on if the ratings were tanking.  He says,  "We're giving them really good stories.  Don't you think this was better than your season, Chicken George?"  George: "Oh yeah."  Erika:  "Yeah, but my season had actual sex on it."  "Will:  "Yeah, but that was sex with ugly people."  [Will's referring to David Lane and Amanda Craig]   Boogie got a Nintendo,  Will can't figure out why BB gave him a scarf when he lives in the Valley where it's 110°.  Will also got a pair of jeans,  might be Diesels,  a fancy dress shirt that he says makes him look like a gay waiter,  in a Cuban restaurant.  Will calculates that BB spent about $400 per person (he's either way low or means without the electronics).  George also got two Polo shirts.

3:00PM BBT:  Erika and Janelle are in the HoH and Erika asks if she wins HoH who she'll put up.  Janelle says Chicken George and Boogie,
 and if Erika votes to evict Boogie and Will votes to evict Chicken George then she would be the tie breaker and send out Boogie. Janelle says she wants to be responsible for taking out Chill Town.

3:30PM BBT:  It just takes a few minutes to do,  but Erika takes it to heart and tells Danielle that she's putting her up.  Erika cries,  and Danielle is calm and cool,  saying, "You just do what you have to do." Erika tells her that she just couldn't beat her, and she that she is too strong of a competitor to keep her in the game. Erika: "Danielle I am so sorry" Danielle replies coolly, "That's OK, I understand."

3:45PM BBT:  Danielle is in the bathroom area and asks Janelle why she wanted James out.  Janelle says it's because Chicken George told her that James wanted to evict her, and then there was the PoV that James threw, "He's a terrible actor."  Danielle tells Janelle that Erika's putting her up.  See the Video 

4:00PM BBT:  Danielle and Janelle continue their heart-to-heart in the gym. Danielle says "I can say this to you now, you were my target when I was HoH, but as weeks passed I'm kinda rooting for you now."   Janelle says why?  Danielle says, "I don't know, it's just... I don't know,  I look at you, I know you're a good competitor,  but I wanted to work with you.  You'll see when you see my DR sessions.  That's why I was smiling when you won.  No matter what happens,  I'm cool w/ you"  Janelle says thanks and hugs her.

Danielle says based on what Erika is doing to here,  she cannot completely trust her,   "She looked me in the eye and told me I was safe."  Janelle asks if Erika's a big liar.  Danielle says, she's doing what she has to do, "I hate to say she's a liar."   Meanwhile,  Erika is lurking outside gym door (where they are talking now), but I can't tell if Erika could hear them or not. Danielle tells Janelle that the only person she knows will have her back is Chicken George.

Janelle doesn't know what she's gonna do next week.   Danielle tells her to look at who she can beat in the jury,   just look at that. Danielle says she will vote for the best player.   Hard to say who that is right now.   Danielle says she hates being played like that.   Danielle says when she makes a commitment to people and it's hard for her to understand Erika changing her mind.   Apparently Erika told Danielle that she has to put her up cause she can't beat her.    It looks like Danielle is sincere, as afterwards she goes to George and tells him to trust Janelle,  do what she says, and watch out for each other. 

Outside:  Erika jumping up and down on the trampoline in her bikini.  [Her boobs aren't moving I just find that odd  -dumblonde]   She keeps asking Boogie if it is sexy and he says yes.  Erika quits bouncing and now they showt Boogie lifting weights (which isn't too sexy either)

Now Will's jumping on the trampoline.  It looks like BB did something to the trampoline because yesterday when Will jumped it was wobbling like it might fall but today it looks safer.

Tonight's Broadcast in Color on CBS: (A more complete re-cap of tonight's show is available on the CBS web site after the show has aired on the West coast) Previously on Big Brother All-Stars:  Another member of the season six alliance was sent packing when James was the third season six HG to in three evictions.   Danielle worried that Will was up to no good.  Erika won HoH and nominated Janelle and Chicken George.  Find out tonight on Big Brother All-Stars. Janelle the poker champ Too much of a good thing George is the king of belly flops Will gets the juice squeezed out Erika hosts a trippy flower power food competition.  Everybody in the house is either a poker fan or wants to learn.  So some of house experts decided to teach them how to play.  They played for M&Ms, which was really cruel to George since he can't eat them.   Janelle was there to be taught, but turned out to be a shark at cards too.  Will:   "That's the first time she said she ever played cards and she just cleaned us out."   From the DR Janelle says,  "Everyone was just annoyed because I always win everything."  Mike is a big gambler.  He likens himself to be a professional poker player.  He got dropped on his head when Janelle started whopping ass.  See the Video Erika gets her HoH room decorated in floral designs.  It looked like a florist had an epileptic seizure.   Everyone makes the climb upstairs to see Erika's HoH room.  Erika got a Cold Play - Parachutes CD  Popcorn clusters, a picture of her mom and brother,  Mom sent homemade chocolate chip cookies.  Will looked at the picture of the cast of BB4  "Allison was a chunky monkey.  They wouldn't even let the Asian guy in the picture.  He should be saying Jee, I'm not in the picture.   I'm no Brad Pitt but the season four cast photo, like a bunch of beasts.  Who's this chick"  Will asks.  "That is Michelle, the 19-year-old virgin. " Erika answers.  "I can tell why she say virgin.  That is an ugly group of people."    See The Video  Next they take a look at one of Chicken George's talents:  Every few years an amazing sport event occurs. Not the world cup. Not the Olympics.   We want to see the world's best belly flop champ.   "You can't touch the guy. I mean he's got the girth.  He's got the worth.   That's his saying, his motto, his credo."  Will tells us.    He looks really funny when he runs because he puffs his stomach out  and then he runs with his arms out .  See the Video Will & Janelle:  The Showmance   See the Video Next it's bedroom politics with Erika and Boogie.  Mike has to talk Erika into not putting up CT,  and thinking ahead that Janelle might win PoV, putting Danielle up in place of Janelle.  Will plants some seeds of doubt in Janelle's mind before Boogie jumps in bed with her.  We also see that flashbacks showing when Erika promised Danielle that she was safe.  One obstacle is Will's original plan, which was that he'd go to the jury house to start peddling influence there to get the votes.  Erika remembers the plan and asks Mike,  "All right, Boogie,  don't we want to send Will to the jury. "  There's a pause, Mike wasn't expecting this and doesn't answer and Erika starts to doubt her alliance and asks Mike:  "Is  your allegiance to him or is it to me?   Mike, you are saying that you are like my allegiance is Will.  If you said pick one person."  Mike dodges the question and responds:  "I am happy sending Will to the jury,  I am.   I just don't want to do it now."  From the DR Mike says, "She was under the impression that Will would take one for the team and leave the house.   And  I was like -- put the brakes on that one, sweetheart.   We need to talk about putting Danielle in there." Flower Power food Challenge  The bees and the birds have to absorb as much nectar as possible and deliver it to  where the flower helpers take that nectar and squeeze it down into the flower itself.   And it is funneled off into tub.   Each tub responds to a food group or luxury prize.   The tricky thing was they all had a group of people that all have different priorities.  Some people really want beer and wine.  Chicken George really wanted the slop pass for himself.  Will was teaming for the trampoline so they had to prioritize on the fly. The HGs that had to do the squeezing, would jump on the soggy HG to wring them out.   Will and Janelle were not very pleased to have George jump on them   "Did we get to choose between veggies or slop pass?" They chose to take the slop pass for George in exchange for their veggies  See the Video Will is in love with the camera:  See the Video  At the nomination meeting, Janelle and George are nominated.  Who will win the PoV?  And will they use it to save either George or Janelle?   See the Video

During the time where Will was laying in bed with Janelle, and then moved down to the floor beside her bed saying he has a girlfriend and he can't, something else happened that you had to pay extra special attention to notice or else you'd miss it. Will tugged on Janelle's mic and she moved around to face him and they both rearranged the blankets so they were covering the side of the bed, and will moved his hand up (you could see it) and held Janelle's hand under the blanket for quite a while, and then started stroking it, and then when other people sort of woke up, he stopped and they moved away.  -cutiepie488

6:30PM BBT:  Danielle and Janelle are talking about last season.  Danielle is saying that now that Janelle explains  why she voted for Ivette,  now she completely understands and agrees that she,  too, would have voted for Ivette in Janelle's situation.  Janelle says that Rachel told her that if Ivette won the game she would be really upset.  Danielle says that Rachel took it personally, then.  Danielle says Rachel called Ivette a "piece of shit" to Danielle.   Danielle talked to Rachel after the show.

Janelle says that Maggie never admitted to anything.  She acted like she wasn't playing and said "I just ended up here."  She acted like she ended up in the finals due to "dumb luck," and it was stupid.  Will comes up and asks if he is interrupting, and they say no and tell him that they are talking about season six.   Danielle says that watching the show,  you would think that everyone would think Maggie should win,  but now that Janelle explains that they didn't know that Maggie was working strategy, it makes sense that Janelle would vote for Ivette.  (Janelle said that if Maggie had admitted what she did, and her strategy, that she would have voted for Maggie). Will asks Janelle if she really wanted Ivette to win,  and Janelle said yes.  Will says that Neil Patrick Harris told him that he had to stop watching the show last year because he couldn't stand the meanness of everyone-- everyone was angry.   Wills says he guesses season six sucked, then, because if someone who was a huge fan,  and yet stopped watching,  then it must have sucked. Janelle says no-- they were just angry.  Janelle says Will is just jealous that America voted for so many people from season six to get onto All-Stars.  Will yells that he can't stand it!  He is going to throw Janelle into the pool, but Danielle tells him not to mess up her mic.

Will is talking about how he didn't know who several people were who were up for All-Stars. He didn't know who Dana and Diane were at all.  He says that the Internet was very "accurate" as to who would make it.  (Yay, us!!).

Did You Know? Real estate in California is very valuable, including the real estate under the Big Brother house, namely CBS Studio 18. Rather than have this valuable property unused nine months out of the year, the Big Brother house is completely dismantled and put in storage when the show ends in September.  The furnishing are sold or returned to leasing companies, and the entire stage is cleared so it can be used for other productions. Studio City itself dates back to 1928 when it was owned by Mack Sennett, the King of Comedy in the silent era.  Later it would become Republic Studios, and in 1963 it became wholly owned by CBS.  The backlot at CBS Studio City was home to the lagoon seen on "Gilligan's Island,"  Dodge City of "Gunsmoke," and a little town called Mayberry. Studio 18 has been home to "Yes Dear," WKRP in Cincinnati," "Dave's World" and other famous productions

Janelle says that she didn't think Danielle was in the top 20, because James told her that Danielle wasn't.  Danielle says that she had to say that. She says James didn't lie to Janelle.  She did tell him that.  She wasn't going to do it.

Will says that he knew that Danielle was lying when she said she wouldn't do it.  He spoke to Nicole and Hardy and they said they wouldn't do it, so he knew that was true.  Boogie came to him with the list of people who were supposedly going on the show.  Will told Boogie that there was no way Danielle wasn't doing it-- she was lying.  He called Monica and told her "you ain't shit!" and she said  "You know I can't talk about it!!"  He knew Monica wasn't going on the show.

Will says that BB "messed up" when the list was released,  and Will took a screen capture of it and emailed it to (sounded like Jonah and Robin?) and we get FotH.

The feeds come back and we hear Will say "It was amateur hour over there. They missed that up big--" and FotH again!

Will heard that Eric from Dani's season was told that he should "watch the casting special to find out if he was on BB7."  So the people who weren't on the list thought that they would watch the show to find out if they might be on the show,  when in reality the top 20 were on the show. Janelle says that what they did to Scott was bad.  Will says that they (the top 20) were all watching the casting special wondering how they looked on TV. and other BB people were watching wondering if they would be on the show.   They think this was awful of CBS.

Now they are talking about how they should have put Survivor people on BB, and vice versa.

(At various times, Will mentions Neal Patrick Harris and how he can't believe he met him, and what a great day it was).

Will talks about how men store fat versus women, and how a big group of people in the late 1880's were trapped in a snow storm, and the women didn't die but the men did die, because the men couldn't store fat. (ed--This doesn't sound like the Donner party, in case anyone is wondering).


They seem to be grilling outside -- bratwurst.

George says that he didn't think he would get on the show. Danielle says that she knew George had to get on! It wouldn't be All-Stars without someone from season one. George says he looked at the odds and they were 70-1 that he would get in the house. Danielle again says she knew he'd get in the house.
George: (laughing) I was probably rated right up there with CT. We're neck and neck.

Boogie is lying alone on a lounge chair with his hat pulled over his eyes, clutching a pillow on his stomach.

Will says that this shows you that when BB needs story and they say "Christmas," TAKE IT! When they say "trampoline," take it!

Danielle says she loves her presents.  Will says that he thinks Boogie got the best and Erika got the worst, and he thinks George "made out like a bandit."  George says "No complaints from me!"  Will says they even gave him his favorite color--  "Fart green!"

(I can't see Erika outside. They aren't on lockdown, because Janelle went inside to get something for the bratwurst.  Janelle is cooking for all of them.)

Danielle just got all excited because she found a dime.
Will:  "We accept that currency in Sixpakistan!"
Danielle:  "Here we go again!"
Will says that Janelle will fall in love with him.  She says, "I can't help but fall in love with you,  Dr. Delicious!  You make the days go by so much faster!"

Chicken George is (appropriately) wearing one of the bird hats from the food comp.

They are also grilling Mahi Mahi.

Will is lifting weights and talking about "Sixpakistan." He says they have a very "lenient entry policy" and that you don't have to bring a visa-- Just a bottle of lotion.

Dinner is ready and George yells in and tells Erika. Janelle says the Mahi Mahi smells funny, though.

George is trying to get everyone to eat. Will says he is full, but he will keep them company.  He asks Danielle, and she says, "I'm not hungry." George asks her over and over, and she finally says she will "do it for you."  Janelle asks Will why he didn't sleep--he says that he wasn't tired. She asks why. He says he has a lot going on in his head, and she asks what. He says "Like, none of your beeswax." and says that she will find out "when the time is right. This is an A and B conversation, so why don't you C your way out of it?"  She tells him fine, and he says he is just kidding. (But she does stop asking).  George tried to get Boogie to come inside to eat, but they say he is sleeping.
