Hey Big Brother fans, looks like Rick Devens‘ HOH came to an abrupt end today because of the pharaoh’s curse and his Head of Household run is official done. The veto ceremony happened with Drew Campbell using his medal, a renom and then the abrupt elimination of one of the final five.
Let’s get into all of that including live feeds fun and what’s happening next in Big Brother 28. Plus, we also expect to get a new Head of Household result later today, but so far, the feeds are still down so that comp’s not playing out yet.
Big Brother: Yash and Dee are Targets
First, for what it is worth, you saw Melody Morris‘s Diary Room session on Sunday’s episode saying she’s fine getting Yash Patel or Dee Valladares out. Both are big targets. That played out intercut with the scenes discussing who she’d renom.
She was debating Drew vs Yash. But here’s something to consider. Those Diary Room sessions taped AFTER the double eviction. Because they only had moments on Thursday’s live show for the conversations, then Melody renommed Yash.
Then, Yash was voted out and went to meet Julie Chen Moonves. Everything Melody said was with the benefit of hindsight. Those DR sessions taped post-show on Thursday so they were still in the same outfits as the live eviction.
Then, they were edited to intersperse with the scenes of Melody chatting frantically with a pleading Taylor Brown to make it seems like Melody was fine with however it went.
It’s true that Yash and Dee are both big targets but also, Melody seemed to really believe that Drew would vote like they wanted to evict Dee. But she and Devens used their icon mojo to sway him to stay on the dark side with them.
And Drew stayed loyal to them over Melody. Not that it matters much, but the way Big Brother edits thing is a bit misleading if you’re a casual who doesn’t stay current on the life feeds.
Like how the DRs that air during the comps on the episodes are all filmed later. This is hard core evidence of scripting, but it’s whatever. Reality shows are never real. That being said, rigging and scripting aren’t the same thing.
Big Brother 28: Hairbrush Swiped Again
Okay, so now, live feeds fun. Dee showed Drew where she hid his hairbrush in the pool and he showed Dee where he hid her sunglasses. And then on Sunday night, the houseguests got an alcohol delivery.
They got five beers – one each – plus a bottle of wine. This was the last hurrah before Monday’s early eviction. We also had Dee making a F2 deal with Drew. And Dee also made one with Taylor.
Plus, we had Dee and Devens reaffirming their final two deal which neither seems likely to stick to. But CBS might like to see a Survivor final two of Dee sitting next to Devens. I don’t think Julie would like it.
Off the feeds, Jason DePuy got himself a brand new wig and cut it into a skullet. Yash inspired obviously. He called it a drag skullet. Jason said he’s selling it and bidding starts at $50k.
Speaking of pre-jurors, Kamu Kirk‘s asking for people to vote for Yash and Taylor for AFP. Also, Survivor 50 winner and Big Brother 28 final four Dee clocked herself. With Drew snapping pics, Dee climbed up on the dining room table time machine while he took pics with the selfie phone production gave them.
Also on the live feeds, Drew maybe got a goodbye kiss because he and Melody were in his pod bed last night and they were laughing, giggling. Not for that long and the lights were on.
Big Brother: Egyptian Eviction Results
In Big Brother 27, by the way, at Final 5, they kept the feeds down for more than seven hours while they did the veto ceremony, renom, with that weird mastermind voodoo doll thing and then rolled into the HOH comp.
And the feeds came back up with one less houseguest. Keanu was ousted, and a new HOH. This year, we didn’t get the all at once treatment. But when the feeds came back up, Drew had played his veto medallion.
Looks like Taylor was the renom. Doesn’t really matter though because in the end, Melody was packed off to jury house to join Barrett, Yash, Angela and Lala.
Melody Leaves the BB28 House without Fanfare
Melody didn’t even get to pause and talk to Julie or see goodbye videos. And Melody should be the last one officially sent to the jury house because they are down to the final four and the sixth juror should meet them at the jury round table.
And of course the seventh juror will join them as they are sitting in those jury chairs right before they vote on the winner. Drew wasn’t taking chances when he played his veto. Rightly so, because Dee might’ve blindsided Devens and evicted Drew.
Then, the feeds went back down and when they came up, Devens is going to be evicted – not from Big Brother 28 but from his HOH room because a new HOH will be crowned.
And whichever of them is Head of Household will likely target each other. Unless Taylor wins, she’s headed back to the block. They need to just give her a bungee cord because Devens just had her there last week.
With Taylor’s renom today from Devens, that’s six times on the block. Victoria was on the block ten times in Big Brother 10, so Taylor won’t break the record. My favorite frequent block-sitter of all time was America’s Favorite Dentist (AFD), Johnny Mac.
