I'm starting to warm to this season because most players seem to be realizing what was evident to me in the first episode, which is that Zach is a huge tool who thinks he is much smarter he is. He's done next week, fingers crossed. I thought this cast were a bunch of nitwits except for Claudia and Kuzie but maybe not.

Classic femme fatale. She even looks a little like Jessica Rabbit. Sorry the season ended prematurely. Hope there is another season and that they bring back everyone who wasn't evicted, thrown out, self-evicted or wanted to self-evict. I'm not worried alliances will be known. It hasn't ruined all-star seasons of BB or Survivor. Plus, it's only fair. Plus I liked most of these players. Let the early part of this season be a lesson to production not to cast obnoxious assholes thinking they'll bring drama. Clever game-play is what brings the drama.

In BBCan they have always done that most weeks unfortunately. Chris, Kyle, Jamar, and JL cannot leave soon enough! Producers really did go out of their way to cast douchey guys this year. Good news is I like most of the women or at least find them interesting (ML), but I am kind of rooting for Hira. Are they going to tell these people about what's going on in the world? I presume if one of their older family members gets CV they will let them know. BBUS let HGs know about 9-11 and this seems comparable. They didn't even tell Michael when he was leaving. I wonder if that means there's going to be a comp to get back in the house?

And she knows that and she did it anyway! All season she has been at the top of the JU HG ratings, and I don't understand why. She seems like a nice enough person, but she sucks at this game.

Wow. I did not see that coming -- either Paras pulling out those comp wins at the end or her swaying the majority of the jury. But, eh, I didn't really like either of them (or Derek) anyway, so whatever. This whole season went to hell when Canada saved Ryan and Erica was voted out. Stupid Canada!

Feeds down for season. If you're reading this you probably know that Paras won HOH, nommed Daela and Kaela won POV. Should Kaela cut Derek now or risk waiting to F3? Advantage to cut now: she'll have to come out on top in F3 showdown to advance to F2, but she will be playing against weak competitors and has a good shot at pulling that off and would likely ultimately win against either of them. If she waits: she has to face equal competitor in showdown, who may or may not take her to F2 if he happens to win, and she may or may not ultimately win against him. (It sounded like jury so far seemed to favour her but she doesn't know that of course.) Hmmm...

Heh -- but seriously yes. All the women this year have gorgeous, long hair. Especially Paras.

Well, everyone I found remotely interesting is gone now. I guess I'm rooting for Kaela? She deserves it the most out of everyone left, that's for sure. But I can totally see Derek pulling a Jon and cutting her out to take one of the floaters to F2. How much longer does this last?

I'd like to know why everybody ended up voting Ryan out (happy as I am that they did). Production really made it seem like the vote would split 3-3 with Derek breaking the tie in Ryan's favour. And then, surprise...! I hope they show some background to that decision on Monday's show, but probably not. It took me at least 3 weeks to be able to tell those two apart.

I still don't get it. I thought if Canada saved anybody it would be the personable young father who was falsely promised safety to speak with his kid, not whiney self-pitying Ryan.

I just saw that too. Of all the people on all the reality shows I have watched over the years who did it to jump start an acting career, Derrick is just about the last person I would have guessed would actually pull it off.

I just voted to keep noms the same. I can't stand Ryan, and I'm betting that most viewers feel the same. He's supposed to be the BB superfan but is shocked and offended that so many people are lying? Dude, please! I am also really enjoying this season. I love Ali and Olivia. I don't necessarily want one of them to win, but they crack me up, much like Cassandra before them.

I agree with everything you say, except that Paul's groupies will eventually turn on each other and the fun will begin. I am seriously beginning to doubt that. At this point it looks to me like Paul will decide who goes every week from now on. and he has enough loyal soldiers that they will go along with that until the week they are the one "marked for death" and Paul will win. I don't like Jessica or Cody at all, but they were the only ones fighting against that tide. (I say "were" even though Cody is still there, because I'm sure he has checked out mentally at this point). I'm bored. For the fourth year in a row, I am out in early August. I'll come back for the finale, which will probably be as unsatisfying as it usually is.

Hell no! I barely put up with a Paul HOH, and that was because of the hex. I cannot do a week of Josh in power. I will follow on-line and check back in next week. Not that I think Jessica should have trusted Paul and his minions in any event, but why did she ask for Alex to go on the block as one of her conditions to not use the hex? I thought she wanted Josh out so bad last week. And, for the record, grown-ass women look ridiculous wearing cat ears.

Me too. And I don't even like her. This is what I have been reduced to this season -- rooting for Jessica. I have been thinking that since the first week.
