Big Brother 19 – Quitters Never Win
The live feeds turned on at 1:00am est and was already giving us juicy details from the past week inside the house. Jillian and Alex were talking together and it eventually came out that they’re both on the block. Not completely unexpected as they’ve been in the house for well over a week so it was possible they played veto, Megan won and Alex was the re-nom.
Wrong
Apparently, Megan saw Josh acting like a lunatic this past week and told the house “hold my beer” (not really). From what I gather, she tried to spread rumors between each side of the house thinking nobody would talk to each other and clear it up. It sounds like she told people that Jessica called Alex a ‘panda’ which eventually got back to Megan. A fight broke out that “wasn’t even as bad as some in previous seasons” (according to someone I don’t remember who), and Megan went to the DR and never came out. She quit. After only 3 hours in the DR, she quit.
I wasn’t able to witness it because it all happened before the feeds went live, but it is mind blowing that someone would leave the house over a fight after only 3 hours in the DR. We’re just a few seasons out from when Audrey went all unibomber on the house after her attempts at stirring the pot blew up in her face. The difference is that Audrey didn’t completely fuck over someone else in the house as a result. She cocooned herself in blankets and spent most of the time in the HN room before putting herself together and facing the heat on Thursday night.
By Megan walking out, the eviction apparently is still going on because Cody was forced to name a new nominee which happened to be Alex. Unreal. We’re only two CBS episodes in and two people will have had their Big Brother dreams shattered by ridiculous ‘twists’ or rules. Cameron was screwed by the twist to bring Paul back, and now it seems Alex may get the boot because production doesn’t want to just give them a pass this week.
I will post more details as I get them, but as of right now this is a completely shitty situation for Alex and Jillian as Megan should have just stuck through the rest of the week and asked to be evicted by the rest of the house (I’m sure it wouldn’t have been hard).
