‘Big Brother 24’: Pooch & Joseph Showmance Thrills Fans – Will it Happen?
Big Brother 24 shows Pooch and Joseph Abdin in a fledgling showmance if you ask those watching the live feeds on Paramount. The coach and the personal trainer are pretty hands-on with each other if you watch the after-hours cameras. But will any of this make it to air?
Joseph Abdin Worried Pooch will be Evicted from Big Brother
With Joe “Pooch” Pucciarelli on the block, if Joseph Abdin’s really interested in a showmance, they’d better act quickly.
Although according to some BB24 live feed watchers, the vibe is already there.
According to US Weekly, Big Brother production replaced Marvin Achi with Joseph Abdin before the CBS premiere.
Fans were excited in Big Brother 9 when gay houseguests Neil Garcia and Joshuah Welch flirted. But then Neil walked from the game, dashing hopes for the first same-sex showmance in the CBS reality show.

In BB16, Frankie Grande and Zach Rance were very handsy and cute on the feeds, but nothing ever made it to the regular airing episodes. Will Joseph and Pooch’s snarky comments and flirty actions be similarly excluded?
Pooch volunteered to be a pawn, but we know pawns go home. Plus, the BB house seems more focused on him than Taylor Hale, who’s beside him on the block. Taylor also thinks she’s a pawn.
Joseph recently joked on the Big Brother feeds as he asked Pooch, “if you go, who am I gonna rub my bulge on?” You can see that clip above when lawyer Joseph Abdin said he’ll “cry harder” than the coach if he goes home.

Whether or not it makes it onto the CBS episodes, the powers-that-be are well aware of the vibing happening with the guys. How do we know? The guys admitted it!
In the storage pantry, Joseph told Matt Turner and Pooch that the DR asked him how close they guys are. But what was the nature of the questions from the DR? Pretty intimate, it seems.

On the Big Brother feeds, Joseph said, “I literally have the DR asking me if we’re f****ng”. And he’s apparently not the only one. Joe Pucciarelli admitted he’s gotten “some weird questions too”.
But with Pooch looking like the locked-in evictee this week, what does that mean for Joseph Abdin’s game once he’s gone. (That’s assuming the vote goes that way). He may already be shoring up his Big Brother game — just in case.
Pooch on the Block – Joseph Plans for Big Brother Future without Showmance?
Whether this is a real showmance may not matter for too long. Why? Votes are aligning against Pooch the pawn and he may well go home. However, they’ve pushed eviction from Thursday to Sunday. And it won’t air live.
Meanwhile, in case his buddy stays, Joseph Abdin’s calling attention to some things for Pooch. He told the other guy that he needs “to calm down” and “go under the radar”. Pooch asked on the Live Feeds for Big Brother, “what the f**k have I been doing?”
Then, Joseph told him on Tuesday that it was “everything” and said the “joking with me” and “the touchy” stuff. It looks like the beginning of the end for the showmance some have branded “Pooseph”.
Making it more frustrating is the delays and lack of information. First, this Thursday’s eviction – where Pooch may go home – will not be live. CBS pushed it ’til Friday night. And then, it won’t air for fans until Sunday, July 24, 2022.
Plus, there’s a BB24 live feed outage ahead to prevent the vote results from leaking early. We wonder if Pooch and Joseph Abdin might get a little on-air package of their flirt-mance ahead of what’s likely the former’s eviction come Friday. We’ll see.
