Tomorrow is the first Big Brother 19 eviction of the week. By the end of Thursday’s broadcast, we will be down to the final three Big Brother players. Last week, we went from 7 to 5, with the double eviction. These houseguests are heading to jury in packs.
All week, the plan has been to evict Alex Ow. The first step involved Josh Martinez winning this week’s Head of Household competition. The second step was that Josh had to stick to ‘the plan” and nominate Alex and Kevin Schlehuber. Both of those parts went off without a hitch. The final, and most important step, was ensure that Alex didn’t win this week’s Big Brother 19 Power of Veto.
Paul Abrahamian succeeded in executing this part of the plan by winning it. He then broke the news to Alex that he would not be using the veto. Paul couldn’t just let himself get a little blood on his hand, because Instead he tried to bloody-up Christmas Abbott and Josh’s hands even more.
He tried to claim that they wouldn’t vote for him if he kept Alex in the game. She didn’t really hound Paul about it, but she just continued to stew and get angry. Meanwhile, Josh found himself also stewing and growing angry, because he was tired of Paul throwing him under the bus to the jurors.
Josh planned to go rogue and save Alex. He would let Christmas and Paul split the votes, and then he would save Alex by voting out Kevin. For the most part, Josh is all talk. We don’t see him really risking his own game for one jury vote.
Therefore, in the end, we think Paul and Christmas will decide to vote as a unit and Alex joins her friend Jason Dent in the Big Brother 19 jury house.

Shannon Beador is weighing in on last night’s birthday celebrations overload on The Real Housewives of Orange County. She shares her thoughts on Vicki Gunvalson‘s birthday party, her own birthday festivities and the awful rumors about Eddie Judge shared during Vicki’s bash.
Starting off with her own birthday situation, Shannon says we need to back off if we think she needs to shut up already with her whining to David about Vicki’s allegations. “It is difficult to watch my birthday conversation with David. For all of you that are going to tell me to just keep my mouth shut and stop complaining, let me stop you there. I haven’t been bringing up this subject over and over. I don’t talk about it every minute. But on this one year anniversary of the vow renewal, you are actually seeing me talk about things from my heart. I had no intention of going into this subject, but because of the day, it just happened. Yes, I was stressed about the whole Vicki allegation situation because I didn’t want my family to get hurt. We have been through enough. But that was six months ago and I am having the hardest time realizing that David has been distancing himself from me.”
On the birthday dinner for Eddie, Shannon blogs,”I want to be clear that I did not plan Eddie’s birthday celebration, but just suggested a fun venue for the night.”
She is not mincing words when it comes to the pathetic attempts by the former co-stars and their rumors about Eddie Judge at Vicki’s birthday celebration, “I have so many thoughts go through my mind as I watch Vicki’s birthday party and her attempts to have her minions do her dirty work. The scene with Vicki, Kelly, Gretchen, Lizzie and the fame hungry Ricky was the worst acting ever. So fake. So contrived. Vicki clutching her face in her hands saying, “What????” Give me a break. She knew what was going to be said. It was all in her plan.”

Shannon calls out Vicki‘s hypocritical two-faced ways, “Vicki tells Kelly she doesn’t want to do the “mean girl stuff” anymore? But then Vicki says, “I don’t want to hear any of this stuff about Eddie. Tell me more.” With a smile on her face. That pretty much sums up who the mean girl is.”
Shannon‘s parting tease about the rest of the Real Housewives of Orange County season, “And the previews for the rest of the season? Let’s just say that I butt heads with a couple of the women. Lots of surprises ahead.”

Bethenny Frankel doesn’t do things half-assed. The Real Housewives of New York star shared recently that she and her team had been devoting all of their time to gather up donations – monetary and physical – to help victims of Hurricane Harvey in Texas and this weekend she got to deliver some of it in person and help out where she could.
Bethenny headed to Texas to meet with survivors and help disperse some of the donations coming in on behalf of her BStrong Foundation and Dress For Success. She shared on Twitter with one of the photos below, “Yesterday, these strong women shared their story so you could see where 100 percent of #BSTRONG #HurricaneHarvey donations are going”
Bethenny also met a group of women who are former Marines. “These are 3 former U.S. Marines who served their country valiantly. Now, #BStrong is able to serve them as they’ve lost their homes. One had to escape her flooded home with her six kids in a dump truck loaded with garbage.”
Bethenny also shared with fans, “B Strong is my org.100 % to victims-cash/gift cards/gas/transp/clothes/hygiene.”

The Mindy Project may have just entered into its final season, but its cast is already looking ahead to the potential (and let's face it, in this day and age, probably inevitable)...
If you love CBS shows, well, get ready, there are a ton more very on brand shows coming to the Eye Network. This year's offerings include a Big Bang Theory prequel that, well,...
Another day, another Giudice drama! This time Joe Giudice, who has been cooling his heels in prison after a money fraud situation went terribly awry, has been barred from the prison’s alcohol abuse treatment program over his immigration status.
Despite living in America since he was a baby, and marrying American citizen Teresa Giudice, Joe never completed his citizenship requirements and is currently eligible for deportation once his 41 month prison sentence ends. Last year Joe entered Fort Dix correctional facility and was placed in a special unit for substance abuse. At his sentencing hearing, the Real Housewives Of New Jersey star told the judge that he his drinking was out of control as a result of the legal issues, Teresa’s prison sentence, and the sudden loss of his father.
The biggest incentive however is that completion of the drug and alcohol abuse program could shave up to a year off Joe’s prison sentence and potentially see him being released next year, instead of Spring 2019 as planned. Except small snafu: the Courier Post reports that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) “placed a detainer” on Joe, which means they can take custody of immediately after his sentence ends and whisk him away to a deportation hearing. This detainer classifies Joe as an “immigration enforcement priority” because he was convicted of an “aggravated felony.”
RELATED – Teresa Continues To Stand By Her Man
I wonder how Teresa feels about her old Celebrity Apprentice boss Donald Trump‘s immigration plans now that he’s president? Perhaps the now-President Trump could even pardon Joe! Oh that could be an exciting Bravo special. I digress…
In a new court filing arguing for rehab services, Joe claims prison authorities are improperly exploiting the ICE detainer to prevent him from receiving the treatment from the Fort Dix Residential Drug Abuse Program (RDAP). Basically, Joe is taking the prison to court!
Joe challenges that just because “he may be subject to removal proceedings at the conclusion of his sentence,” he cannot be excluded. However Fort Dix’s website states that inmates aren’t eligible for the RDAP program if they’re unable to complete the “community treatment component” upon release. In Joe’s case, since he could be detained by immigration (and ultimately deported), he could be unable to fulfill that requirement. Joe doesn’t think the nebulous future is a reason to bar him from treatment the judge agreed he needed.
RELATED – Could Chris Laurita Potentially Be Headed To Prison Too?
Joe also argues that he’s not able to fight the proposed deportation while incarcerated because the prison won’t allow their inmates to appear before immigration judges. Joe attests that other federal prisons do allow this and he wants that same option. Essentially he’s unable to try and have the detainer removed or suspended, which would then open up his eligibility for the RDAP program.
Joe requested Fort Dix because it was close to where Teresa and his daughters live, and would make visitation easier. Guess – as in all things – Joe should’ve done his research first!
But, here’s the most interesting part – Joe’s filing insists he’s not “seeking to set aside his conviction or be re-sentenced ‘unless the court deems that an appropriate remedy.’” Hmmm… Joe’s attorney could not be reached for comment. Joe and Teresa are also suing their former bankruptcy attorneys.

This episode of The Real Housewives of Dallas was all about family. From LeeAnne Locken looking to form a new one with boyfriend Rich, to Brandi Redmond reaching out to her grandmother, and Keatin running away from his mom D’Andra Simmons. This show has proven it’s more than poop jokes and charity events. Cary Deuber, Stephanie Hollman and Brandi pack for the big Memphis trip. Brandi plans to visit her grandfather who suffered from a recent stroke.
D’Andra enters her ornate house and catches up with her husband, Jeremy. They discuss his photo journalism lectures and appear to have a good partnership. Jeremy breaks the news to his wife that his son Keatin feels he doesn’t fit in and wants to move out less than two months of living there. D’Andra is upset by this. She thought he’d pick up on their ambition and shake the feeling of entitlement. D’Andra wants to hold her step son to the year he committed to, she gets fired up. The two may be newlyweds (don’t forget LeeAnne stood at the Simmons wedding!) but he knows how she is, asking her to be levelheaded.
Brandi, Stephanie and Cary are off to Memphis. We learn that Brandi grew up in a trailer and swam in the Mississippi River as a kid. She’s definitely done well for herself. At the hotel, Brandi jokes that it’s nice to stay there and not have to perform “sexual favors”. This gets Cary on a roll – she can’t jump in fast enough – agreeing that she’s excited to have 3 days off. “It’s every day” she explains. The ladies prepare to open a bottle of champagne but Cary goes on to say she has to “do double duty” and some weeks it’s 5x a day and others 10. Side Note: the more you talk about all the sex you’re having the less believable it is…
Anyway, they all plan to attend a birthday party for Brandi’s grandfather. We’re told her grandparents divorced before she was born and she’s had a close lifelong relationship with her grandmother, until recently. Once Brandi formed a relationship with her grandfather, both she and her mother were rejected by her grandmother. Brandi has felt guilty for betraying her for a year and a half.
Back in Dallas, Kameron Westcott is either prepping for a middle school science fair or a business meeting…we can’t tell. Her poster board is ready to go in front of the judges her husband Court. She asks her kids if they want pink dog food and her daughter Hilton ever so politely says, “I prefer brown”. Adorable. Clutching the pink poster board which reads “Let your dog sparkle from the inside out”, she reminds us that she’s SMART and she’s looking to enter a $25 Billion Dollar industry.
Kameron rolls up to her husband’s office in a BMW i8 (more on that later). She’s looking for a $100,000 investment, which she’s denied. Despite her strategy of being over the top and bubbly, which apparently Court LOVES, she’s met with a blank stare and “NO”. She takes this as a yes and that he simply can’t refuse her. Instead, he gives her $10,000 for a proof of concept. Kameron’s BMW starts at a price of $143,000. There’s your investment.
Back in Memphis, everyone is celebrating Brandi’s grandfather’s birthday and meeting her extended family. Jesus juice is pouring. Brandi and Stephanie bond over both wanting to be pregnant at the same exact time. Someone better tell their husbands. Cary notices how co-dependent the two are. The whole thing is reminiscent of last season.
Next, the girls go catfishin’. In every circle of friends, there is always one that is freaked out by fishing. On this trip, it’s Stephanie. Last week, she did say she was afraid of fish. When it comes to baiting the hooks, she doesn’t think it’s something Jesus would like. Maybe she should have sat in the car with Brandi’s part time Nanny, Megan who was asked to wait there.
Cut over to LeeAnne who doesn’t get nearly enough airtime on this show BTW. She primps for a dinner with D’Andra and Kameron. She feels hurt that Brandi didn’t invite her or call her about the Memphis trip. Her loyal boyfriend, Rich shows his support. He gets down on one knee…to tie his shoes. LeeAnne’s still waiting on that engagement ring.
At dinner, LeeAnne confesses her attraction for Kameron. Kameron mentions she heard Brandi say the former carny kid wasn’t allowed in her home.” Untrue”, says LeeAnne. D’Andra remains perplexed by Brandi, pointing out that half the time she’s around her she looks to be asleep! They all predict that Cary will be brainwashed by the end of the trip. It has really become 3 on 3. LeeAnne, D’Andra and Kameron vs. Brandi, Stephanie and Cary.
Speaking of the other team, they’re out in a horse drawn carriage headed to Beal Street, Memphis. Now it’s time for this group to talk about the other. Brandi says her relationship with LeeAnne is still a work in progress, citing her kids being “scared” of LeeAnne after last year’s antics. Brandi goes on to say she couldn’t care less if she has anything in common with D’Andra and Kameron. The divide gets a little bigger. Despite Brandi’s claims, Stephanie refuses to believe that LeeAnne likes her and Cary. Cary tells the ladies that she’s a better friend than LeeAnne is to her and she threatens to lose her mind if LeeAnne is talking about them behind her back. When will these ladies [especially Cary] realize that ALL they do is talk behind each other’s back?
LeeAnne is off to her therapist’s office to talk about Rich. The two have been together for 8+ years and they’re approaching the December ultimatum deadline, where she is supposed to get a ring. LeeAnne asks her therapist if she should hint, draft a letter, sky write, etc., resulting in the shrink thoroughly disagreeing. LeeAnne struggles to be patient with Rich, not wanting to push him away.
On the road, Brandi and her mom Jana are off to Mississippi, where Brandi hopes to explain her relationship with her grandfather. Brandi says her grandmother knows they’re coming because she sent her a text. Jana plans to wait in the car but encourages her daughter to go inside. This is when you see the real relationship fracture. Jana won’t even bother seeing her own mother (and vice versa). This all makes Brandi feel the pressure of reuniting her family.
At the hotel, Stephanie and Cary talk about the rekindling of ‘Stephandi’. Steph feels the two soul sisters are in a much better, healthier place. Cary agrees and throws in, “I don’t want to say you kiss her ass, but you do“. Interesting. One could argue Cary kisses the behind of Brandi and Stephanie a lot more.
Tensions are high at the Simmon’s house. D’Andra is angry. Keatin’s eBay career is over and he’s moving out. Keatin is your typical guy. He doesn’t feel comfortable, and he doesn’t want to talk about it. Keatin hasn’t done anything in less than two months living in Dallas. (Think of all he could accomplish if pursued the Dallas social scene in that time?) D’Andra warns Keatin that if he goes back to South Carolina, he’ll go back to his old ways it will go back to the way it was – Keatin rolls his eyes. Poor D’Andra, everyone rolls their eyes at her. Keatin doesn’t care that D’Andra wants to push him into success, and is moving out that night. D’Andra appears to be both genuinely disappointed in herself and her step son. In true Mama Dee fashion, Dee gets the last word, “if you graduate in 10 years, I’ll be very shocked”. Later, Keatin carries a backpack down the stairs and he’s out of there. Barely even looking at his own father, he leaves. Sad, D’Andra hugs her husband as he drives off. She takes it hard, wanting a do over.
Back in Mississippi, Brandi takes a long walk, flowers in hand up to her grandmother’s front door. Her biggest fear being that she won’t open the door. Brandi painfully rings the bell and knocks as dogs bark on the inside. The knocking continues. She calls to her grandmother. Heartbreaking. Brandi gives up, leaving the flowers at the door, feeling ashamed and shunned. At the car, Jana consoles her daughter. All parties involved are going to regret this moment one day.
Brandi returns to the hotel in Memphis where Stephanie and Cary welcome her with open arms. Brandi says that she did learn from the experience: exactly what her grandmother did to her, she did to Stephanie. All three ladies get in one bed in a purple room. Brandi’s still upset and announces that she plans to drink a lot that night. Cary breaks out a gold mask and starts to put it on Brandi as she sips red wine. Stephanie remarks that it looks like she just had a facelift, “D’Andra watch out, I’ve had mine before you”, jokes Brandi. Was that shade? The three hydrate their face and all is calm. It wouldn’t be Dallas without shenanigans and Jesus Juice after all.
NEXT: Mark Deuber continues to look like an ass in front of the Westcotts. LeeAnne and Rich go home to the carnival. Is he going to propose?? D’Andra feels the ladies need a sit down to hash out all the talking they’ve been doing and LeeAnne and Cary fight in between an animal skin.
TELL US – THOUGHTS ON THIS WEEK’S EPISODE? DO YOU THINK CARY IS KISSING UP TO STEPHANIE AND BRANDI TOO HARD?

It looks like Dr. Ben Warren is going to be joining the Seattle Fire Department after all. After hinting at the character's future in Grey's Anatomy's season 13 finale, when...Since Big Brother 16, BBComics have become a major part of the Big Brother world. Every year fans wait with anticipation to see how the amazing artists will depict their favorite and least favorite players. The Big Brother houseguests are even more amped to see their depictions. Sometimes the comics give a little insight into how players are viewed in the outside world, but often they mainly just highlight a part of the players’ personalities or character traits.
On Thursday’s Big Brother 19 Live Eviction, host Julie Chen revealed that this week would have a comic theme. On Sunday’s episode, to win the Head of Household competition, we saw the Big Brother 19 houseguests attempt to remember facts about a Revengers trailer. This trailer showed former Big Brother contestants dressed as their comics characters trying to stop an evil villain (played by Big Brother 10 winner Dan Ghessling).
The final five houseguests have mentioned the comics since playing the Power of Veto. So we know a little of what to expect, but now we can actually see them now. Today, Entertainment Weekly exclusively released images of the Big Brother 19 comicbook characters.
Eleven out of the former 17 players were shown–Megan Lowder most likely did not get a comicbook depiction due to her walking from the series. The only five missing are the current Big Brother 19 houseguests: Alex Ow, Kevin Schlehuber, Paul Abrahamian, Christmas Abbott, and Josh Martinez. We’ll have to wait until tomorrow’s episode to see their BBComics characters.
See the eleven evicted houseguests’ comics below.
Our personal favorite is the Cameron Heard one because it includes former houseguests Brendon Villegas, Rachel Reilly, Jordan Lloyd, and Jeff Schroeder. We also love that Ramses Soto’s comic has a John ‘Johnny Mac’ McGuire mask. Elena Davies also looks amazing on her Hellena comic.
Overall, it’s a great bunch of comics. The only slightly weird one is Matthew Clines’s Silver Fox one. Look at the comics below and let us know what you think of the Big Brother 19 edition.
