Big Brother 18 (likely Spoilers inside!)

[pg240]

Any Big Brother fans out there? Thoughts on this new twist that will return a house guest to the house? My first thought was they shouldn't really be letting them see farewell messages if they might get back in the game. But then I figured they probably know who voted against them anyway. I was happy to see Jozea go and hope he doesn't return, although I'm betting the Big Brother producers are hoping he does!

Hope you don't mind I slightly updated the title of the thread, if anything to prevent ME from clicking in here before I've watched an episode, and also because I'm likely to look ahead on Joker's updates to see who wins comps before they broadcast. (For example, I already know who won the HoH for this week and am stoked about it.)

I've been a huge fan since BB10.

I always HATE (on any reality tv competition show) when people are allowed back into the game after being voted out. And in this case especially upsetting because the first 2 house guests (HGs) out are terribad and I don't want either of them around.

 

[pg240]

Thanks for the update. Hate to spoil someone who doesn't want to be spoiled. I'm like you, though, in that I was at Joker's as soon as the feeds came back on to see who won HOH! And I also don't like Redemption Island-like twists. Lose and go home!

So, the emotions must run rampant in Vanessa's and Tiffany's family.

It's almost scary how similar their personalities and mannerisms are!

Did anyone subscribe to the All Access this season? I have it for the first time this season. Mostly since I dropped satellite TV last December, and I didn't want to miss any episodes if I didn't watch them live. The live feeds are kind of neat. It's interesting how some people's characters seem different in the live feeds than they do with the edited TV episodes.

I love Pauly! I liked his brother though too.

I bought it last year but it seemed so many hours were blocked for one reason or another. I may not get it again this year.

I watch after dark sometimes but I miss when it was on showtime.

I haven't had too many issues with blocks just yet. It sometimes switches to the "we'll be back shortly" screen, but before you can check another camera view, it's back on again.

 

[pg240]

I was really hoping for a girl power move this season. Saw something on jokers about Frank spanking all the women and was thinking he has to go. Would be cool to see them pick the guys off until only James remained. Then they could practical joke the hell out of him!

 

[AmberCutie]

I'm curious peoples' feelings on Frank...

I'm sort of pissed he's safe this week, because after how he usurped Bridgette's HoH and seems to have gotten away with murder, I really wanted him to feel vulnerable.

 

[pg240]

I never liked the idea of people returning to competition after getting voted out of a reality show. I still don't, but I must admit this battle on Big Brother might be interesting tonight, especially given the history of BB producers rigging competitions to favor their desired outcomes.

Who do you think production most wishes was back in the game? Who do you want, of the 5, to return to the house?

 

[pg240]

I'd like to see Bronte return (but it would be amusing to see Glenn return!). Not sure about producers' wishes, but I'd guess Jozea or Victor. They might like to see Tiffany for the potential drama. My most fervent wish is that the returnee doesn't win, although that is highly unlikely anyway.

 

[AmberCutie]

I think they may want Jozea for the drama and personality, I'd prefer Tiffany for how crazy she can get, and how well she may be able to twist things up upon return.

 

[KylieJacobs]

I was cheering for Victor all the way during the Battle Back competition. I would have been happy if Tiffany won also, but Victor is more fun on the live cams.

I don't really care for Frank. I know that Tiffany thinks that he can be trusted, but I'm not so sure that I believe it (especially after Bridgette's HOH).

I'm not so sure that I want Pauly to win the game anymore. I don't like how cocky he has gotten, and the way that he was talking to Tiffany before she was evicted.

My favorite top 3 at the moment are Paul, Nicole, and Victor. James would be next... him and Natalie are cute together.

 

[Crumb]

WEAK!
just plain weak James.

 

[KylieJacobs]

WEAK!

Yeah, a replay of his first season... this could hurt him later on when no one trusts him anymore.

 

[pg240]

I really, really like James. He's just so entertaining. But he's most definitely not playing a smart game. Stupid "B and V" gaffe tonight. I know it's difficult to be on top of it 24/7 in there, but you can't do that!

 

[pg240]

Have you heard any buzz about the house turning on Paulie? I'd be most pleased if that were the case.

 

[pg240]

Amazing nominations this week. I really like that move. Of course, veto competition will be huge.

 

[Albert_1]

I'm just happy James is back this year. He needs his cat hat back tho. Also I can't stand Paulie hope he goes this week.

Can't tell if Paulie has suddenly become an egotistical douchenozzle, or if he was just getting a really good edit before this week.

Hope he goes.

Enjoying having Vic back in the house, he's a whole different/better player without Jozea influencing him.

 

[pg240]

With my luck, Paulie will get voted out but have the round trip ticket back into the house.

 

[pg240]

Now I'm pretty certain that Big Brother will do all it can to see that Paulie wins the buyback competition (or whatever the hell it is) for maximum drama value.

 

[pg240]

Perhaps it's just the cynic in me, but it doesn't surprise me that BB came up with a veto competition it had a reasonable suspicion Paul could and would win. He's far too entertaining to dispatch to the jury house. And I still expect Paulie to return from the jury house. All that said, wish the other house guests hadn't just sat there and let Paul browbeat them over his nomination. But he was right about one thing: no sense giving a nominee ammunition for argument. Simply say "you're a threat to my chances of winning and I have to put you on the block."

 

[Albert_1]

Harry Potter. Harry Potter. Game of Harry Potter?

 

[pg240]

Well this is quite a night ... Survivor starts and Big Brother ends. I'm guessing Paul will win Big Brother but, interestingly enough, I'd be OK with any of the three -- even though James didn't really distinguish himself this season. Suppose Victory will get the fan vote.

 

[pg240]

Given that Day had the last vote I was certain Paul would win, but it was really a lot of fun seeing Nicole's reaction to the victory. Cool to see a woman beat a man in the final two for a change. Now, on to Survivor.

I was shocked that Paul didn't win! I thought he had it right up to the end. It was nice of him to bring Nicole to the final 2 for "Friendship", but it's sad that it caused him to lose. I've always been a fan of Nicole though, so I'm happy for her. Yes, her reaction was priceless! Even when Paul chose her for the final 2, she really thought she was going to be evicted!

Is anyone going to watch the Big Brother- Over the Top season? I still have the CBS all access, so I'm going to give it a try. I'm worried that it might flop though, especially now that they are considering bringing back Jozea.

 

[pg240]

Yeah, no way to Jozea!
