The first 15-20 minutes of the show is like a typical eviction episode. After the eviction everyone gets set up for a quick HOH (a quick puzzle or Q&A) while Julie is interviewing the evictee. They cut to a quick commercial then play HOH. Between when it ends and when the players go back inside is the only time the HOH has to discuss who to put up or to make a deal. They noms are made, they go to one more break, and then play Veto. After Veto, they go back inside and the winner immediately decides what to do with it. They go to commercial one more time, vote someone else out following it, and that's the end of the show. The next HOH comp starts on the feeds. So the episode is about... 80% live? What happens if one of the comps runs long? They set the comps up so that they can't barring some unreal event. The Veto comp is usually a 2-3 minute competition at most. If you want a couple of examples here are probably my two favorite double eviction eps. Both involving Dan, not shockingly: I love the second one because it's probably the most frazzled I've ever seen Dan in the house. He gets a little nutso when he wins the second HOH and starts bouncing all over the place trying to make a decision and convince everyone that it's cool.

I really hope Zach stays. I can't stand Jocasta.

Personally I'd be really disappointed if Jocasta left, even baring that I dislike Zach (I was on the fence about him until he started enabling Caleb's creepy obsession by badgering Amber about him which crossed some serious lines for me) and ADORE Jocasta (such a ball of life and joy and everything good, her DRs are hilarious) there's the fact that it would feel like a waste of a week for a constant target like Jocasta to go down when the whole week looked like the boring ass Detentators FINALLY taking a hit. I hate the Detenators by the way, its been awhile since I've liked everyone outside of the controlling alliance more than the people in it universally. So yeah even though Zach is probably actually my second favorite Detenator (after Cody, like Zach more than Franke/Derrick/Christine in about that order) and even though he's one of the only people who causes drama and conflict in the house I'd rather a move finally get made.
I love double eviction weeks. I used to hate them because I thought people would always play it safe during them but I've consistently been wrong on that and some of the biggest moves in the game have taken place during the second part of a double eviction. Something about it just gets people going.

{Spoiler}Zach nearly just got saved. Caleb got through to Derrick about keeping Zach for the numbers by pointing out that if Christine flipped to the other side they would suddenly be at a disadvantage. Derrick talked to Cody about it, and then of all people Frankie shut it down and said Zach has to go. Christine backed him on it. So Frankie just likely ended any chance of Zach staying...by taking out one of his own numbers. *thumbs up* I'm admittedly not watching very much of the feeds at all this year, but I'm keeping up with them. On a likeliness scale of 1-10, here is what I think about each person's chances of leaving tomorrow night in the DE: {Spoiler}Zach - 9 Jocasta - 7 Donny - 6 Victoria - 6 Christine - 5 Frankie - 5 Caleb - 4 Hayden - 3 Nicole - 2 Derrick - 1 Cody - 1 Curious to see what others think.

{Spoiler}Well, never mind everything I just said. Derrick just grabbed Cody alone and said he wants to draw a line in the sand right now. They're voting to keep Zach (can probably get the votes with or without Frankie) and it's about to be Nicole/Hayden/Donny against a mob going in to DE.

{Spoiler}Well now that the Detonators are whole again, Christine starts off by immediately claiming that Nicole is jealous of her and Cody. (YOU'RE MARRIED) I'm out for the night. Might be about to check out for the season.

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}I wonder if Derrick is a cop since he keeps on reading everything wrong and has shit instincts . Basically playing an unentertaining carbon copy of what Helen did last year in the first half of the season. He has screwed over and sent out people who would have been his puppets like Brit and Amber and is now screwing over Hayden/Nicole/Donny and those 3 will come after him if 1 of them win the next HOH. A day ago him and Cody were the best positioned in the house now they are marked men.

If what pulls through? {Spoiler}Meaning the plan to save Zach. Things change quickly in the BB house, and at the time, there was still quite a bit of time for it to fall through. As a Zach fan, I'm just hoping this plan sticks.

Oh my god. So not only is this boring ass string of evictions and nominations going to continue for at least 3 more weeks, but they're STILL forcing Battle of the Block. Had I known BB14 was going to be the last good season for at least three years I would have watched more feeds.

Tonight's double eviction was the one shot to make the rest of the season interesting and *somehow* not a damn thing changed. Can't wait til Donny and Victoria are nominated and one of them goes home. Gag me. :/

This season might as well be renamed "Jesse aka Madhackrviper aka Dapperfox cannot have nice things, ever, don't delude yourself".
Yet somehow I'm still clinging to hope that Nicole going on a warpath will shake things up :/

what he said. Zach's entertainment is in causing problems for whoever is in power for the week. What he just did to Nicole on the feeds was f***ing unnecessary. Just outright taunting her over and over and over.

I take it we've gone beyond "Froot Loop Dingus," then?
