I was looking forward to this as I figured this would shake up the game. But no, of course it didn't. This game is still going chalk. No surprise that Kevin went on the first one. That was expected. And then the second one being David, only person left not in any alliances with the remaining people (well perhaps with Tyler, but he didn't win that one anyway), and of course with Tyler, not shocked he wanted Dani out who was targeting him. Dani and Nicole, I'll say it again, made the fatal mistake, when Dani had the chance to shake up the game while HoH to get rid of an alliance member, and when it came down to it, she couldn't do it. To us at home, it was clear that Nicole and her were at the bottom of the alliance. For all the "smart" play Dani had, that was colossally dumb.

So Nicole is next, unless she wins HoH. After that, it will depend on who wins HoH going forward. I'm rooting for Enzo, but really, I don't really care that much at this point. For All-Stars, this was the most scared bunch of players ever.

On the triple eviction. I hated that they essentially used the same game for both Veto comps. Come on, you could have come up with something they could have set up quickly.

Anyway, it'll be over soon.

I wonder who got in trouble for spilling the triple eviction? I don't know exactly how or what they saw on screen, but am pretty sure that that was not they way they planned to reveal it.

They've been hinting at it all week. But yeah, production seems kind of sloppy this season.

 

[lambertman]

Apparently the big screens behind Julie were showing the "triple eviction" graphics early. D'oh!

I was glad they clarified why Christmas won the veto, because it was clear Nicole hit the buzzer first and I thought the fix was in.

I thought it was obvious, but I was looking at their puzzles right after they hit the buttons...

I forgot the discussion with Cody on state citizenship identifiers like "Floridian", "Texan" and "Californian" and how he was so adamant that this wasn't a thing... Forgot about it until they had the "Previously on Biiiig Brotherrrrr"...

That was a hilarious conversation...

Was he was right that a Texan is an animal?

 

[MikeekiM]

LOL... He was clearly thinking about the Houston Texans and the bull logo...

It's been truly amazing this season that the people in power were able to knock off every floater before losing even a single member of their own. I don't think we've ever seen that happen before. Unfortunately, it made for an incredibly boring season.

It's amazing, but not unexpected since they won EVERY HoH! But if you have a big enough alliance and the smarter/more physical players in that alliance it's what is going to happen. The only player who could have shook this up was Dani, and she chose not to.

But that's just it. They had to win EVERY HoH to pull it off! Even though they are younger and clearly more athletic overall, they still only accounted for half of the house. It's simply remarkable that the other eight players couldn't even win a single HoH.

Haven't read the thread yet.. With as much preparation as TV shows do, how can they make such a big goof as show the houseguests the triple eviction info behind her??

sheesh!

see the fire at the left/top of the blue bordered one? Two slats are upside down/backwards.

sheesh!

it's a new set (impressive, i might add), and there was bound to be a mistake - they'll know to address it going forward.

 

[gweempose]

Yeah, I was super bummed that they found out about the triple eviction a little early.

 

[MikeekiM]

Yeah... But to be fair, they all kind of were anticipating it anyway... I was a little disappointed when Dr. Will's "plan 3 steps ahead" was so easily interpreted and translated to "triple eviction"...

Of course, you don't know until you know...so yes, the early reveal was a bummer...

 

[MikeekiM]

I was glad they clarified why Christmas won the veto, because it was clear Nicole hit the buzzer first and I thought the fix was in.

Yeah... I was almost yelling at the TV... "Nicole was robbed!"... Definitely felt better after Julie clarified...

Love her or hate her, I think Rachel would have brought a lot more "great TV moments" if she were brought back for All-Stars... I know a lot of people (based on my memory of previous posts) would swear to never watch... I'll go on record and say: I would absolutely watch!

I was going to spoilerize this, but I figure if you don't like "spoilers" from previous seasons, just don't click the video...

I would have never known, because you could count me as one of those who would have skipped this season if she was on. Her and Paul are the two most annoying people on Big Brother ever. So I was at least glad they didn't bring either back. I would have loved to have seen Dan back on. He would have made this an entertaining season. Even Boogie and Will (but I could understand if they probably couldn't keep up with these people). The problem is that most of these people were just kinda boring and the structure of the game was kind of boring. There were no one really trying to shake up the game. And maybe it's just that the game has been "gamed", in that there's one best way to play if everything breaks right. No way you could really know this in advance. What was needed was another schemer, besides Dani, and Dani wimped out when she had the chance to make her big move.
