Little Women: Atlanta Reunion Recap: Deflated

Little Women: Atlanta reunion

Little Women: Atlanta reunion

In case you missed part one of the Little Women: Atlanta last week, we ended with a wild accusation: Tammie, the chicken wing-throwing, overzealous daughter-defending mother of Minnie Ross, claims she thought Ms Juicy had romantic feelings for Minnie because why else would Juicy take such an interest in Minnie’s life?

Forget the fact that Minnie has lied to her friends over and over and over again, obviously sexual attraction could be the only reason, right? I suppose if you live in an alternate universe where you’re the grown mother of a cast member on a reality show and can’t manage to keep out of the drama yourself. But I think even those who don’t care for Juicy can see what a stretch this is.

CLICK CONTINUE READING FOR MORE!

Little Women: Atlanta reunion

For Ms. Juicy’s part, instead of even defending such a silly claim, she can’t stand the shade and decides to open her Mardi Gras umbrella up while the other women try to reason with Tammie. It doesn’t work – Monie Cashette is told she might have a voice over career now but the first season, she needed subtitles to be understood. Emily Fernandez is told to stay in her lane. Kevin Frazier tries to jump in with the hypocrisy of it all but clearly forgot he’s moderating a reality show reunion and hypocrisy is the best part. Tammie takes no prisoners!

As usual, Minnie sits back and lets her mom do all the dirty work and Tammie stays in on Monie, sniping about her synthetic weaves and welfare fraud. But Monie has what Minnie wants more than anything – an engagement ring and a man that wants to marry her. Minnie’s only retaliation is to say Monie’s fiancé, Morlin, is trying to get with someone else in the group.

It takes five more minutes to sort out something even close to an understanding of what that means and apparently, Minnie heard through someone else that Morlin said he would treat Andrea Salinas better than her deadbeat dad of a boyfriend. That’s it? Am I missing something? No, I am not, that’s all Minnie has on the matter and Andrea will barely back this up.

Little Women: Atlanta reunion

This is the perfect segue into Monie’s wedding journey, if you still care about Monie getting married. Bottom line is that Morlin is in charge of the budget and Monie is going to get married without her stepdad’s approval. I wasn’t really interested in what was going on here until Kevin invites Monie’s step dad out to explain why he does not approve of Morlin. No one is safe on the reunion stage and surprise guests are welcome!

Donald comes out and calmly explains that he isn’t impressed with what Morlin brings to the table. Kevin mentions the whole holler-at-Andrea thing that he just learned (through the resident cast liar, Minnie, mind you) and Donald isn’t happy. He leaves after stating his peace, which is that he doesn’t think Morlin should be getting married, just to be clear.

In case you were wondering about everyone else’s relationship status, Bri Barlup and Wooda are doing well and so are Amanda Salinas and her longtime boyfriend, Jordan. Minnie claims to be talking to some pastor she met while speed dating and Ms. Juicy has a “good friend” named Tim.

Little Women: Atlanta reunion

One relationship that is going nowhere fast is the one between Monie and Minnie. Is anyone surprised? Even though we ended the season with Monie bestowing the co-maid of honor title on Minnie, Monie now says she’s good with Ms. Juicy being the maid of honor all by her lonesome. Minnie can come to the wedding but that’s it.

Minnie claims not to care about any of this but Kevin won’t let it slide and points out that if Minnie didn’t care, why is she coming into the reunion with such anger. EXACTLY. I like Kevin – he’s the only reunion host that doesn’t let anyone off easy. Suddenly, both Minnie and Monie end up crying about the whole thing. Monie goes off on some tangent (to Tammie’s credit, I could use those subtitles right now) about how she’s trying to keep it together and not be crazy but she’s proud of herself for not popping off.

While on the topic of Monie and Minnie’s friendship gone wrong, we look at Minnie’s questioning of Monie’s dwarfism, which shows how messy Minnie is. She didn’t think anyone had the right to question her miscarriage but it’s perfectly okay to question the state of Monie’s genetic makeup? Kevin reads a viewer asking that very same question and Minnie tries to explain that she just wanted Monie to get tested. Nice try, Minnie, but you were pretty nasty about it and even told Monie she shouldn’t be hanging out with the group if she didn’t know what form of dwarfism she had.

Little Women: Atlanta reunion

If there is one thing the women can all agree on, it’s their dislike of The Drummond Twins, who come out wearing matching outfits. It doesn’t take long for things to heat up.

Kevin asks them why they immediately started trouble on the show by bringing up Monie’s welfare fraud. Was it because they were really concerned where their tax dollars were going (now I officially love Kevin). Bri is still mad they ruined her son’s birthday party. When Hope and Charity say they apologized, Emily isn’t having it.

These two aren’t embarrassed by their behavior and with that, Monie’s bracelets come off and she’s charging them! Security is there to stop her (how did she get her heels off so fast?) and I’m not sure why everyone on stage is looking so shocked. Before anything else can go down, the twins are told thanks for coming and ushered off stage.

Little Women: Atlanta reunion

To lighten the mood, we get treated to a preview of Little Women: Dallas. This definitely looks like a lively crew. I’m glad to see Emily and Bri cross over to another show and cast and am looking forward to watching the drama unfold in a whole new city.

Wrapping up, Kevin gives everyone a chance to redeem themselves in the form of pretending they all really like each other. Juicy uses this opportunity to pass out gift bags. It looks like most of the women got candy, but Minnie throws her bag aside and says that she received a deflated black balloon from her baby shower. Can we stop calling it a baby shower? Also, Ms. Juicy really should let it go at this point.

Little Women: Atlanta reunion Minnie throws candle at Juicy

Kevin grabs the gift bag and shows viewers the shriveled up balloon that’s about to make all hell break loose. Ms. Juicy tries to explain her reasoning while Minnie starts taking off all her jewelry. When she’s done, Minnie goes off and throws a candle at Ms. Juicy. Security steps in again and I sure hope Ms. Juicy has security back stage – Tammie is back there! And with that, Season 2 of Little Women: Atlanta comes to a close. A very messy one.

Don’t Be Tardy Recap: Know When to Fold ‘Em

Don't Be Tardy recap - Kim Zolciak

On tonight’s episode of Don’t Be Tardy, the Biermanns are home from vacationing in the Starbucks-less land of Montana and Kim Zolciak Biermann is back to being well caffeinated.

But alas, vacationing is really hard on Kim so she needs a break and tells husband Kroy Biermann he needs to take her to the new casino in their area so she can blow off some steam. I’m guessing this is all part of the bargain she made for agreeing to go to Montana in the first place.

CLICK CONTINUE READING FOR MORE!

Brielle needs anything but a break and is ready to start dating again since she’s been single for almost 6 months now. Cut to an inappropriate conversation to be having between mother, step-father, and daughter (I don’t care if she’s grown). In light of the fact that Brielle’s friend blows through 14 pregnancy tests a month, (side note: I think this girl would really benefit from some basic education on the female reproductive system to understand why testing this often makes zero sense), Brielle and Kim tease Kroy for thinking that no one should have sex before marriage.

Don't Be Tardy recap

Kroy says that isn’t how he thinks but he does think Brielle should get a career first. Because having a career means you’re capable of having sex? I’m not sure where he is going with this but he takes it a step further with a random cheesecake analogy that not even the hungriest (or horniest) of fans could follow the logic on. Kim believes in trying before you buy, to avoid being stuck with two inch penis after getting married.

Brielle and her best friend, Zach, are playing pool, talking about penises and her ex-boyfriend. Tracey thinks they should end up together, which Brielle vows will never happen. He’s “too nice” according to Brielle. I agree and think Zach should be thankful Brielle hasn’t set her sights on him.

Don't Be Tardy recap

Off to the casino, where the woman who writes checks for brand new Escalades and orders Louis Vuitton luggage for her toddlers goes to enjoy herself. Kroy, Kim, and Tracey head into the brand new casino by their house and promptly take out twenty-five thousand. That’s right – thousand. To gamble. Pay attention, viewers – this episode will likely be used in their bankruptcy case later. Kim is busy playing $100 slots, trying to avoid another stroke from all the flashing lights while Tracey watches in amusement.

Brielle is back at home, piling on layer after layer of makeup to get ready for her date as Ariana watches and passes silent judgment. Brielle’s date calls to see what he should wear and Brielle puts down the makeup brush long enough to instruct him. Sounds like a great match already.

Don't Be Tardy recap

Back at the casino, Tracey uses her psychic abilities on the slot machine, which does nothing because they are really just guesses. Kim is getting angrier as she loses hundred after hundred. Kroy turns into an ATM and when he finally tries to cut her off, Kim sharpens her talons in fury at being told “no.”

But we all know who wears the overpriced pants in this relationship and before we can say “insufficient funds,” Kim has dragged Kroy and his last wad of cash to the blackjack table. Kroy sweats uncomfortably as Kim and Tracey play hand after hand, his hard earned NFL dollars going right down the drain.

Don't Be Tardy recap

Brielle is out on her date with Bennett, who takes the girl with pancake makeup and extensions to a bowling alley. They make a bet – if Brielle wins, Bennett will give her food. Brielle mentions that bowling isn’t something she’s good at, like eating and spending money. Run, Bennett, there is still time! Brielle admits she had a good time but isn’t looking for anything serious. The Bennetts of the world can sleep a little easier tonight.

It’s 9:45 AM and Kim, Kroy, and Tracey all return from being at the casino all night. They lost big. I’m amazed that Brielle is up at 9:45 AM with a full face of makeup to even discuss last night’s date with Kim and Kroy but it turns out she never really went to bed to begin with. Kim is still annoyed she lost all of their money. Kroy seems unfazed that his wife clearly has a gambling addiction but hey, at least she wasn’t pushing him for another kid, right? Looks like Kroy got off easy tonight.

Little Women: LA Recap: Playing With Fire

Little Women: LA recap

Little Women: LA recap

Is it just me, or has this been the most exhausting season of Little Women: LA yet? We are on episode sixteen, for fudge’s sake! Thank goodness, next week is the season 5 finale, after which Kevin Frazier will return to lay down the smack on certain cast members (Christy McGinity and Terra Jole) during the 2-part reunion.

After last week’s Casino Night exploded like a dirty bomb in everyone’s faces, Christy is hell bent on getting back “in” with the group. But it’s too little, too late for Briana Renee and Terra, who can’t even stomach the sight of their former friend on a “survivalist retreat” that Tonya Banks delusionally organizes. Terra is more concerned about meeting her partner for Dancing With The Stars, who she suddenly laments will be taller than her. Ya think!?

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!

After Tonya gets called a “mother f–ker” by Thing 2 in Christy’s posse, Casino Night’s peacemaking mission is officially dunzo. Tonya hangs in there, however, trying to convince Christy one last time that she needs to apologize for a long, long list of missteps she’d made throughout the past months. Christy would rather “prove” her case though. Which is not the way to fix things. Exhausted, Elena Gant would rather be home with her babies than attending this clown show. She’s straight up sick of defending Christy.

Before this pathetic night ends, Christy does apologize to Tonya for her bad behavior. Tonya accepts. Jasmine Sorge says that it’s all well and good for Christy to apologize to Tonya, but what about her major issues with Terra and Briana? Those chicks are not playing! But they also aren’t taking any ownership of their equal parts in this situation. Of course, Jasmine doesn’t mention this salient point.

Out to lunch, Terra shares her DWTS news with Tonya, who’s all: Heffa, I wanted to do DWTS! But she is happy for her friend…as long as Terra wears Tonya’s active wear during rehearsals. Tonya fills Terra in on Casino Night, then Terra admits she does want to move on with Christy. Not as friends, mind you! But as silent enemies who can coexist on camera. Tonya suggests a “survivalist retreat” to help them bond. This is not the worst idea producers Tonya has ever had, but it’s damn near.

Christy-McGinity-Pool-Cue-Little-Women-LA

Christy is out shooting pool with her sober friend, Laurie. She’s coming up on her 7-year sobriety anniversary, and is proud of herself – despite the rumors Briana and Terra are spreading that she’s popping pills. Christy doesn’t feel tempted to relapse due to the drama, but she does hold out hope that they’ll all be friends again one day. Laurie tries to get Christy to see the light: These women don’t want to be your friends! But Christy still wants to apologize to Terra and Briana in an effort to do the impossible. She just can’t accept that the damage is done – on all sides – and might be irreparable.

In the alternate universe where Terra and Joe Gnoffo  act like they enjoy hanging out with Briana and Matt Ericson [Grundhoffer], the two couples meet out for drinks. Terra shares her DWTS news yet again, saying she wants to be taken seriously on the show. Briana snarks in her confessional that SHE was supposed to be on that show last year, but whatever! “I’m really happy for her,” she deadpans. Sure. Just like Terra is really happy you married that human sewage pile you’re sitting next to!

Briana still harbors delusions that Christy is behind all of the legal drama with her publicist, and Terra vows that she’ll never have “a kumbaya moment” with Christy. But she does want the group to settle down for the sake of their paychecks, so they all need to be willing to attend this survivalist retreat for the good of the order.

Out shopping for wilderness gear, Jasmine and and Elena get skeeved out by the prospect of this trip. “This is like a store for criminals!” Elena hilariously comments, picking up some handcuffs, then turning her nose up at basically everything else. Elena and Jasmine want peace among the group, too, but know that it’s not up to them. They just hope Christy leaves the cray-cray behind for once. #DreamOn

Back at Terra’s house, she’s talking to Joe and Tonya about her DWTS fears. Her partner is coming over to meet her, and Terra is nervous about their height difference. Is she going to bond with her partner? Or will he just think she is a joke? Sasha Farber rings the doorbell, and cheers when he sees Terra open it, putting all of her fears to rest. They hug, then visit for a bit to discuss their season ahead. Sasha will have to modify his steps, since Terra has to take two steps for every average-sized one. He’s never met a little person before, but already has some good ideas for how they’ll make it work. And we know that they do indeed make it work!

Meanwhile, Christy is trying to make it work at the treadmill store. She’s been on a journey to lose weight for some time now, but hubby Todd’s weight is the real concern. He’s legitimately obese, and his health is in jeopardy. Christy hasn’t ever seen and “old, fat little person” and she still lives in fear that Todd’s going to drop dead. She’s also scared that Briana will never forgive her, so she hopes she can still somehow make things right. Christy’s friendship with Briana runs deep, and she’s planning on doing whatever she can do at the retreat to salvage what’s left of it.

Full-Cast-Wilderness-Training-Line-Woods-Little-Women-LA

Time for some Cabin In The Woods bonding time! Joel, the survival instructor, greets them and immediately gives them the bad news: There are no toilets here. So, get squatting, ladies! Christy tries to blend in with the group, but Terra’s cold shoulder immediately sets her on edge. Joel wonders what their goals are for the day? Elena naively says they want to reconnect. Tonya looks like she wants to use a lifeline. Or phone a friend. Lil’ Boss is taking one for the team as the architect of this adventure, for sure.

Terra-Jole-Tonya-Banks-Jasmine-Sorge-Woods-Little-Women-LA

When Joel asks who wants to team with whom, Terra states that “because of legal action,” she will NOT be paired with Christy! Briana doesn’t want to be with her either. Christy’s like, meh, whatevs. The ladies are paired off to tie sticks together in teams of two: Jasmine, Elena, and Christy versus Briana, Terra, and Tonya. This is not exactly the “bonding” scenario Tonya was hoping for.

Christy-McGinity-Jasmine-Sorge-Elena-Gant-Tying-Sticks-Woods-Little-Women-LA

Over on Tonya’s team, Terra says the legal stuff ruined her opinion of Christy forever. Briana also says there’s no hope for a reconciliation with her. She feels betrayed, and Christy is no longer welcome in any part of her life.

When the teams reconvene as a large group, Joel wants the girls to rub mud on each other. But Briana and Terra are still whiny babies about being teamed with Christy. So Tonya and Christy pair off in the end, getting their mud rub on in peace.

As a last resort, Joel suggests they all write down their issues, then burn them up in the fire later as a way of letting go of their resentments. Terra thinks they’ll all have issues being honest about their feelings, which is strange coming from a woman who rages “her truth” in anyone’s face without hesitation.

Elena-Gant-Briana-Renee-Mud-Paint-Woods-Little-Women-LA

Later on in their ring of fire exercise, Tonya reads her letter. It can basically be summed up thusly: I may be a b*tch, but y’all are crazier b*tches! She throws it into the fire and laughs. Christy is up next. She reads a letter to Briana about “a lot of hurt” that’s happened on both of their ends, then launches into an admission of breaking her trust. She then says that Terra just doesn’t care, and has “poked” her relentlessly, finally admitting she’s felt very alone this season. Into the fire goes her letter too.

Briana’s like, Where’s the apology here? She feels Christy is still just playing victim. Briana also delusionally thinks she has no part to play in this mess, which is simply pitiful. She explains that what Christy did with her family hurt her deeply, then basically asks for an apology on the spot. Christy says she’s sorry, but “I can’t control your family being a$$holes!” since she didn’t know Briana’s family would go to the press after she contacted them (while Briana was in the hospital). This is not exactly the apology Briana was looking for. But it’s kind of the one she deserves, in some respects.

Christy-McGinity-Elena-Gant-Night-Woods-Little-Women-LA

Christy maintains that she only contacted Briana’s parents because she truly cared about her friend. “Did you tell them about Plastic too?” asks Briana. Christy doesn’t answer, just reiterating that she’s sorry for contacting them, period. But she can’t control that they “went psycho” on Briana afterward. Briana hears the apology, but can’t forgive Christy. Elena doesn’t buy this “tough girl” act from Briana, who she knows is sensitive. Why is she fronting so much? Elena wonders. (Hmm. Could it be due to a certain person in Briana’s life who’s name starts with an “M” and rhymes with A$$ Hat?)

Moving on to her beef with Terra, Christy still maintains she was legitimately hurt in the bar fight. That’s not the issue though. Terra says she was ready to apologize the very next day, until she got a call saying that Christy had filed a police report against her. That’s when she “went into combat mode.” Concussion or not, the police report ended any chance of a trusting friendship these two women could have. It’s not about the fight; it’s about the aftermath of the fight. But Christy does not – or will not – understand this bottom line issue.

Terra does want to move on, but plainly states that she will never be Christy’s friend again. Elena thinks Briana could bring herself to forgive Christy one day, but that Terra is influencing her to stand her ground.

Terra reads her letter last, which is (of course!) directed toward Christy. She finally vows to not call Christy “Crusty” anymore, admitting it was immature and done out of anger. She also wants the group to be okay, no matter what ongoing issues simmer between Christy and her. Tonya says that Terra’s heart is just broken, and it may take a long time to heal. But Christy isn’t okay with this – she wants peace now! What Christy doesn’t understand is that all the whining in the world won’t get her there.

TELL US: IS BRIANA BEING INFLUENCED BY TERRA TO NOT FORGIVE CHRISTY? OR IS MATT BEHIND HER STUBBORN ATTITUDE? IS CHRISTY DEMANDING TOO MUCH FROM HER FORMER FRIENDS, OR DOES SHE DESERVE ANOTHER CHANCE?

Survivor: Millennials vs. Gen-X Episode 6 Recap: Tug Of War

108089_D37264b2

108089_D34051b

Wooohoo! Something tells me a lot of this fan base is going to be quite happy following the events of tonight’s Episode 6 of Survivor. The overall feel of this season definitely seems to have cooled off a bit over the past two weeks, but at least we got another solid episode that ended with some surprising results.

Before we get lost in this episode like David wandering through a blindfolded challenge, let me remind you that spoilers are abound if you read on past this paragraph.

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE, AND THIS IS YOUR LAST *SPOILER* WARNING!

Ding Dong, the Witch is Dead! OK, so Figgy‘s not dead and nor would any of us want that, but as far as her time on Survivor goes, she’s history. Yes, the showmance is officially over, and I for one am not going to lose any sleep over it…not taking into consideration that with a newborn, I’m not getting much sleep to begin with. But that’s besides the point. Yes, “Figlor” or “Fig-Tayls” or #Figtails, whatever you want to call it, was cleft in twain tonight. But let’s pump the brakes and start at the beginning…

Tonight’s episode began and ended on the same note: Zeke is moving into a position of real power in the game. With CeCe voted out last week, Zeke is feeling the love from both Chris and David and is feeling pretty good about himself. Now, feeling good in Survivor usually is a bad thing, but Zeke could be the type of player who could really fly under-the-radar the further he goes in the game. By the time we were watching the “Next Time On” portion of the show, we see that Zeke and David might be taking over as the new power couple on the show. Talk about an unlikely duo to have the word “power” attached to.

108089_D29820b

There was a revealing moment tonight involving Zeke as well, when as the tribe’s were called in to begin the Reward Challenge, Figgy proclaimed her excitement for seeing that Michelle had not been voted out…adding on only a bit too late that she was also happy to see Zeke. Figgy’s hesitation was not lost on Zeke, nor was it lost on the rest of the tribe. Zeke knows that he has no real friends should he try to reconcile with the Millennials, and that he is truly on the bottom of his initial tribe. All the more reason to branch out and create alliances with Gen-Xers like Chris and David. And taking into consideration what’s going on at the other tribe, with Ken and Jessica now having pulled Adam in, the remaining Millennials might be in for a rude awakening if they think they’re on top of the game simply because there will be more of them come merge.

The only real story line that took place with the Green Tribe tonight, was that Jay discovered an Idol! Now he, David, and Adam all possess Idols. Will was with Jay when he found it, and then bad-ass Michaela walked up on them to discover that he had the Idol too. Michaela continues to play to the beat of her own drum, and also dominated another challenge tonight, despite yelling and barking orders to her teammate, Hannah.

108089_D35744b

Speaking of Hannah, it has to be a Survivor first that medical had to be called in to attend a player who was sitting out a challenge. That’s exactly what happened to Hannah tonight. She revealed that she has a history of panic attacks, and seemed to have a serious one, that when combined with the intense heat, the lack of food, and severe dehydration out on the island, led to Dr. Joe making yet another appearance. If Dr. Joe appears any more than he has lately, they may start giving him voting rights at Tribal Council. Fortunately, Hannah was not seriously affected by the attack, and was able to rejoin the game, with the worst of it being the embarrassment that she felt.

Survivor

After finishing in last place at the Immunity Challenge, Figgy‘s Purple Tribe was headed to Tribal Council. As was foreshadowed last week, it would come down to Adam, the man in the middle, to decide who would stay and who would go. On one side, he had fellow Millennials and showmancers, Figgy and Taylor, while on the other side he had two genuinely nice Gen-Xers in Jessica and Ken. Earlier in the ep, Figgy and Taylor decided to “go public” with their showmance by revealing that they liked each other to both Jessica and Ken. This of course ranked right up there with “Bear S**ts in Woods” as far as topical headlines go. Ken and Jessica weren’t born yesterday and saw the budding romance almost instantly, so it was comical that Figgy and Taylor thought they had kept it under wraps. But it came down to Adam, and in the end he decided to finally kill the showmance of #Figtails.

The fact that Ken was that close to going home over Figgy, I’m sure would have sparked riots throughout the Survivor community and here among Survivor fans at Reality Tea. Ken, a fan-favorite to most (men and women) getting voted out before Figgy, who is whatever the opposite of a fan-favorite is? That wouldn’t have been cool. At all. But Adam ultimately made the decision to vote out Figgy, clearly the stronger of the two, cutting off the “head” and saving the “tail” for later. Adam says he was thinking about his long-term game, but it will be interesting to see how he fits in post-merge, should he get that far.

Survivor

Taylor, on the other hand, is a sitting duck, but he deserves it. He has been enamored with Figgy since Day One and it’s clouded his game to the point where I don’t see him recovering from it. And really, Figgy deserved her fate tonight, despite showing that she had all the ingredients of a Parvati Shallow, she too put boy-craziness above a million dollars, and it cost her in the end.

Episode Take-Away:  We’ve all been rooting against #Figtails for the most part, and we finally saw our dreams come to fruition. Besides that, there were a bunch of small plot seeds planted this ep. Jay finds an Idol and the show draws him a bit of sympathy by showing him get emotional about his family. Zeke is clearly rising to the top of the “one’s to watch” list. Michaela continues to forcefully will herself through this game. And Adam has now picked a side, and his decision to take out Figgy truly devastates the Millennial tribe moving forward. You have Zeke who has already deserted, Michaela who hasn’t quite been happy with them and has shown signs of mutiny, and Taylor who is dead in the water and hasn’t shown enough game-smarts to really become a threat.

That leaves Jay, Will, Michelle, and Hannah. Michelle is the first target on her current tribe and in serious trouble should they head to Tribal next. And Hannah has not been given a very strong edit thus far as a capable player. Will, being the youngest player ever, well, is the youngest player ever and that’s bound to catch up to him. So good news to those rooting for the old fogies…the Millennial tribe is in shambles, any way you slice it.

Strategic Move of the Week: Adam‘s decision to go with Ken and Jessica, for sure. The showmance is never a good strategic idea on any reality TV show, and rarely works out well. Adam really had no choice. He’s got the protection of an Idol should anything go sour, plus he gets the same vibe the audience does, that Ken and Jessica are good, trustworthy people that wouldn’t be bad long-term teammates. I think it was his only move, especially considering that he really doesn’t have many other close allies left in the game.

Voted out this week: Figgy

Vote: 3 – Figgy (Ken, Jessica, Adam), 2 – Ken (Figgy, Taylor)

Next Week’s Episode: Taylor looks for payback after his girl Figgy was taken out of the game. And as mentioned, Zeke and David form what might be the most unlikeliest “power” couple the game of Survivor has ever seen. See you next week!

TELL US – DO YOU THINK ADAM MADE THE RIGHT CHOICE IN VOTING OUT FIGGY?  WHICH MILLENNIAL DO YOU THINK IS IN THE BEST POSITION AT THE MOMENT?  WHICH GEN-XER?  AND IS TAYLOR A SITTING DUCK AT THIS POINT OR IS THERE A MOVE TO BE MADE?

Who Won Head of Household on Big Brother Last Night 10/26/2016?

We have officially hit the half way mark on Big Brother Over the Top. The fifth week of BBOTT may find some people changing sides, and new bonds forming. The end game seems more clear than ever for many Big Brother Over the Top players, but will they make the moves necessary to be one of the final three?

Big Brother Over the Top

Tonight’s live eviction saw Neeley Jackson, Scott Dennis becoming the fourth person to leave the Big Brother Over the Top house. This puts the Late Night Jamboree, Ball Smashers down a member. They need the Big Brother Over the Top power more than ever.

Emotions and confusion are at an all-time high this week, as players try to make sense of America’s vote and their place in the game. No one is going into this HOH competition trying to throw it.

So how did this week’s Big Brother Over the Top head of household competition play out? Read below for all the details.

*****************************************************************************

The competition was a Big Brother classic true or false head of household competition. Players had to watch a series of videos on the memory wall. They then had to answer true or false questions based on details from them.

After each round, a player was eliminated, until only one player remained.

After six rounds, Danielle Lickey became this week’s Big Brother Over the Top head of household.

Who Was Evicted on Big Brother Last Night 10/26/2016?

Tonight, either Scott Dennis or Neeley Jackson left the Big Brother Over the Top house. All week, Big Brother Over the Top head of household Kryssie Ridolfi wanted Scott out of the game. However, did she actually get her Big Brother Over the Top wish?

At the start of this BBOTT week, Kryssie nominated Scott and Morgan Willett. Morgan won the power of veto, which saved her from eviction. Kryssie then nominated Whitney Hogg as an insurance policy to ensure Scott’s eviction. The Ball Smashers and the Late Night Jamboree plan to divide their vote between Neeley and Scott.

Once again, America got the deciding vote. If you trust polls, we had a close vote between Neeley and Scott.

So who did America ultimately decide to send home?…

Big Brother Over the Top Week 4 Eviction

America evicted Neeley from the Big Brother Over the Top house. By a vote of 4-3, Neeley became the fourth person evicted from BBOTT. She is the first woman evicted from the BBOTT house, and she is the second member of the Late Night Jamboree to leave.

Join us later on to get the result of this week’s Head of Household competition. Who will gain power and could it shift allegiances?

Big Brother Over the Top Recap: Live Weekly Show 10/26/2016

Week four is coming to a close and things inside the Big Brother: Over the Top house are tense as the live eviction vote tonight is anyone’s guess.  The votes inside the house look as if they may be split between Scott and Neeley meaning that the deciding vote will be determined by America’s eviction vote from earlier this week.

Tonight’s weekly show will air at 10 PM ET/9 PM CT on CBS All Access followed by the live eviction and the new Head of Household (HOH) competition.

Justin and Morgan have both been swayed in the last couple of days to change their vote so that there would not be a tie in the house.  However, once they were convinced to change their vote, it wasn’t long before they changed their minds right back to voting with their teams.

The house is equally split right down the middle at this point in the game with 5 versus 5.  The two alliances pitted against one another still remains as the Late Night Jamboree and the Ball Smashers plus Scott.  After this evening, one of the two alliances will have the edge in the house having one more player than the other team.

Join us for our live Big Brother: Over the Top recap of tonight’s show right here starting at 10 PM ET/7 PM PT!  Please be sure to refresh this page frequently during the show for the latest updates!

More coming soon…

Kenya Moore Says Real Housewives of Atlanta Fans Try To Hunt Down Moore Manor

TR3039_0142

TR3039_0142

Kenya Moore was the latest Real Housewives of Atlanta star to hang out with the ladies of The Real this week as the RHOA stars “takeover” in the co-hosting chair. She didn’t share much about the upcoming season of RHOA, but she did share a little about her crazed fans and the total renovation of Moore Manor.

On helping out with the renovation of her Atlanta home: “I found this shell of a house. Dilapidated, it was about to fall over, but the bones were good and it was a modern home, which is less than 1% in Atlanta, so I bought it right away. I began this extensive renovation. I mean, I had no plumbing, no lighting, nothing in there. So I basically built it from the ground up. I even did things with my own hands, like my fireplaces. There’s a lot of love that went into the home and a lot of work.”

On her fans’ love of Moore Manor, too: “I’m just excited because the viewers became so invested in the process because it was grueling. So I decided to treat a member of Team Twirl for a private viewing of my home, so I have a lucky winner and they’ll be touring my house.”

RELATED: CYNTHIA BAILEY READY TO DATE?

Kenya blew the panel away with her fancy toilet that “does it all.”  She shared, “Anyone who knows me, knows I have a particular thing with bathrooms. I found this toilet that is fully automated. You never have to touch it.” She explains how it works and says it even sanitizes itself. “It was my splurge. It was a pretty penny.”

Kenya says people try to find her home and it freaks out her neighbors when they do. “They know because I have the only modern home in the neighborhood.” She says that fans stand at the top of the hill and scream her name. She says the neighbors got a little freaked out by it.  Kenya doesn’t worry about fans sneaking a peek because she put a retaining wall up.

TELL US – WOULD YOU TRY TO TRACK DOWN MOORE MANOR IF YOU WERE VISITING HER AREA? WOULD YOU WANT TO TAKE A TOUR OF IT?
