Well, we’re getting down to it now, folks. But now that we’re down to such a small number, things get interesting. Loyalties tested, vetos more powerful and disruptive, the possibility of a vote swinging at any moment. So, let’s dive into the episode. Let’s get right into what’s frustrating about this episode. Part of me gets whyBig Brotherdoes things this way. It was easy enough for us at home to deduce all of thisbeforetonight’s episode....

I would like to begin this recap with an apology to Nicole… and to you,Big Brotherfans. InThursdays recap, I said this Head of Household comp could be a win for Nicole. And I jinxed her. Credit: Monty Brinton/CBS I really thought she could win this one. I wont make any predictions (in writing) again. Im so sorry, yall. (I dont feel the need to apologize to Christie, because its Christie....

Can the Texan see Michie’s plan and save himself from eviction? Theprevious episode ofBig Brotherwas a crucial one. Theres nothing surprising about that… unless youre Cliff. Cliff Hogg plays HOH Comp BB Flix. BIG BROTHER airs Sundays and Wednesdays (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT); and Thursdays (9:00-10:00 PM, live ET/delayed PT), featuring the live eviction show.

She’d been betrayed by him and this looked like her opportunity to get him out. Alas, it was all talk and no action. Instead, Dani continued to stick with The Committee and put Kevin and David on the block. Another week of nominations and The Committee running the show. He’s a great shield. David pulls out all the Da’Vonne-inspired acting chops he can to look shocked. As usual, David goes one step too far in his gameplay....

The first eviction of the night is already set to go. Kevin and David are on the block, having been nominated by Cody. Before getting to eviction night, Dr. Will drops by to give a clue to the houseguests. Credit: CBS He’s become the one guy picking up on everything in the house. That information gets people talking. So he’s not surprised to be going. A few players are eliminated on the first question: David, Dani, and Tyler....

For the majority of this season, the same rotating cast of players has been winning challenges. Like so many other competitions before, he can’t even get started. He simply can’t figure out the strategy. It’s a tight race, and Cody is watching from the sidelines in agony. One of his biggest allies, Enzo, is never going to win. If Christmas becomes HOH, she’s almost certainly putting him on the block....

First, there were eight. (Then for some reason they went up to nine.) Heres what we do know: It seems that we may finally have a splitting up of the couples. Sam first goes to Sis to see if he can persuade her to keep him. She says she wants him to stay, but shes not sure about rocking the vote. Next, Kat decides to finally play the game. Holly has had suspicions about Christie before, so this isnt new....

There’s a lot of ways this votecouldgo, and the players discuss some options early. But here’s the thing: Dani is lying to him. Nicole is lying to him. Credit: CBS Everyone in the Committee is lying to him. I feel like her gameplay is a microcosm of the larger trend of the season. But she insists she’s beingforcedto vote him out because it’s what her alliance wants. And sure, that’s true, the Committee wants him out....

and Veto competitions, tonightsBig Brotherepisode begins with punishments for both of the Alphas. To say theyre annoying would be a severe understatement. Michies is pretty brutal.

With final four finally here, alliances are crumbling. The time: the day before HOH. The place: the Big Brother dining room. Credit: CBS The plan: a house meeting to the death. Nicole gets to do something shes waited all season for and calls a house meeting. Tommy welcomes the opportunity to clear his name, though. It should be easy to tell the truth, right? His big selling point is that Tommys playing both sides of the house....

Looks like wereGr8ful strongfor one more week, Jack says at the top of Sunday nightsBig Brother. And all across America people groan and throw things at their TV. The alliance of 8 + Sam is making things a bit too predictable. Like for instance how Michie cast a hinky vote for Jessica. We all knew that meant the house would blame Nicole, and guess what? Well, they do until Michie goes full Are you bitches conspiring against me?...

But Bella thinks Sis and Christies anger about the situation must mean Nicole is lying. Before he can get there, Nicole tries to enter. Michie just says bad time and closes the door in her face.

At this point in the game, there are only so many permutations of challenge winners and nominees. With only five players left in the house, strategy is less important than simply winning competitions. The whole season has been relatively drama-free, but the last few episodes have been especially dull. That’s pretty much the same with Wednesday’s episode. There’s little room for surprises before the veto competition. She also pitches Nicole on a Final 2 and mentions not wanting the guys to gang up on them....
