I am very mad with the production because what they did was really unfair and total BS. Ramsey won the veto and, according to a live feeder, admitted multiple times on live feeds he intends to use it on Maddie before he leaves and then the live feed was cut all these times. First of all it was unfair that the eviction still happened after Ramsey leaving while they could reset the week and get a new HoH. Second of all they created the impression Ramsey would use the veto on himself while that's BS because he had already decided to leave. So either don't even show the veto or make an earlier veto ceremony and let the player who won the veto actually choose who to use it on! But obviously they didn't want any of the rest of the players leave because they are better TV than Maddie. I didn't quite like her per se but I want to be just and fair and what happened was BS. Sorry for the swearing but I'm very mad.

This was revenge for Jason "stealing" the idol from Alecia. Who knew this idol would never be played and get wasted like that. Had Jason not won, this blindside would never had happened because Jason would not give the idol to Scot, maybe he would have prefered to play the idol the normal way or who knows. This shows us once more that the social aspect of the game IS important. You can't play the Russel game cause you'll lose over and over again. Tai was mistreated and used in this alliance so he rebeled. I'm not sure this was the best move for him but it was surely justice given. I don't see Michele doing anything strategic and I don't know why Rob and Fishbach consider her such a great player. She was in the outs today. I admire Aubry's game, she managed to go from next to boot to the one making the decisions and I bet she will win if she goes to the end. Of course I never forget my first pick to win, Cydney, who continues to be another decision maker. Aubry and Cydney have the same amount of strategic gameplay I feel so if they are both in FTC it will be a rough call. I remember the Aubry's collapse on day 1 and I am thinking that maybe this is a winner's edit, to show how she didn't quit the first day and she got to win. What a great blindside!

What does this mean? :S

It made me really sad when Dill called Elijah aimless. It was a strong word and I felt sorry for him but most of all I felt sorry for Dill who categorizes people like this. I hated it. I cried the last 3 minutes of the second episode, and I loved Hannah's story. Lena has a great talent and I applaud her once more. Other than this it was a good season (maybe the best so far in my opinion) where we get the chance to see people growing but not necessarily maturing, learning from their mistakes, we see friendships and family relationships crumbling but remaining strong, we see some necessary loneliness and some reconsideration in choices. I liked Shosh trying something new in Japan but being able to realize she doesn't like it and go back and become passionate about something else that counts for once. I liked Jessa remaining the dark person who she is finding another one like her, Adam, having doubts about the morality of things but proving once again that she doesn't care about morals. I liked Marnie making a mistake, realizing it, removing herself from it but then going to someone safe while feeling nothing for neither of these people, simply because she knows not how to love herself for starters. And of course I liked Hannah experimenting with the "good guy" like everyone expected her to do (like everyone expect US ALL to do) only to realize he was not for her because at the end of the day she is not a normal person, she has her flaws and the greatest of all is she can't have feelings for people because she has not received healthy love from her parents. I hope she goes on with writing because her misery is translated in great stories.

It seems that Tim and Cass are in a very good spot right now. We get many game regarding confessionals frolm Cass but none from Tim. Is he doing what Cass wants him to do? And how can Cass become this mastermind suddenly while the whole game she was this useless doll who knew nothing? Why is Joel not doing anything in this game? I like him but he has to MOVE so if he makes it to final two he has something to show the jury. I'm totally scared that whoever makes it to the final two will get Nikki with them so it will be so boring. Maddie is unlikeable but sje has a pretty much good resume to present to the jury so they should get her out.

In RHAP podcast someone was saying that Nikki must have taken the 50% of the votes and the rest of the players had like 11%, 10%, 9% etc so it came to some little percentage difference like this. I don't know whether I like or dislike Phil. One minute he seems really cute and innocent, the other minute I want him to shut up. Especially the "wake up Canada" he says all the time needs to stop. Other than that in RHAP they were discussing about an incident that happened with Raul before he was voted out and was only shown on live feeds; it seems that Raul grabbed and ate a hamburger Tim was eating at the moment and then drank some soda while being a have not which resulted in him being isolated for 24 hours in the back yard. Jordan was wondering how come this incident was not shown in the normal episode and the conclusion was that the producers didn't want to give him more air time because they are mad at him for him being such a terrible player and behaving that badly, breaking the rules. It doesn't matter now but just wanted to inform whoever is interested. I don't know why people kept Kelsey. Raul is a bad player who can be easily manipulated while Kelsey is knowingly in a strong bond with Jared. Lets see how it goes...

So if Tai and Julia stay with the guys (which in my opinion will secure their win) things are simple; the three women and Joe leave one by one and the rest fight it out to the final three. I hope this doesn't happen but if Tai and Julia are smart this is what they will do.

Ok i might have it wrong but I think the following is right: The girls & Joe vote 3 for Scot and 3 for Jason. The guys vote 3 for Cydney. We are not sure whether Julia will vote with the girls or the guys. Before the Debbie plan happened, I remember her saying "I have the option to vote out Cydney but I am not sure yet". So if Julia votes with the girls and Jason uses the super idol after the votes, there is a tie and Scot is out at the revote. Isn't this right? Regarding whether the jury would vote for the two douchebags if they were in final three with Julia: Julia has played a good game. She was in a majority alliance until the swap. She got isolated for three days. After that, and while she was an easy boot, she survived. She knew when to align with the girls and she could see she was last in the girls' alliance so she realized she needed to become flexible and change strategy wanting to take two bad people with her in the FTC so that nobody votes for them. She won immunity when she needed it and managed to vote out a girl while still having good relations both with the girls and the guys. Her only flaw is her not being discreet about it. Other than that she has a good case in FTC in my opinion. I wish Cydney manages to find a way out of this mess. I wanna see her win and/or play again with better people/players.

Julia is right when she wants to take Jason and Scot to the end with her because nobody will vote for them. She plays the best game but she is not very discreet.

What I don't like right now is that we get to see none of the rest of the players' strategy. We saw Cassandra saying she will try to keep Kelsey if she is up with Raul and work with her. We saw Raul trying to save his ass. Other than this, I don't know where the rest of the house stands. Who will vote for Kelsey to leave? I guess the brothers will as they did last time anyway. I understand they want to keep the mystery until the voting but still, things are happening and we who don't watch live feeds have no clue.

I'm glad nasty Kelsey and mr stuffy nose are on the block. I hate Kelsey but I prefer Jared gets voted out cause I want to see her suffer. I am sure in her head she is this great mastermind but she has no idea how much everyone outside the house hates her. I guess Canada will be involved in who to save from nominations or something. We'll see. Maddie is the typical person who just goes crazy with power in their hands and this attitude is not good when you are pleading your case in the final two.

Well I got to like Mitch in the end but I like Joel more and I want him to do well. I hope one of the cancers leave this week and never come back.

The producers wanted to make us think that Jared was seriously considering to use the veto on Mitch and backdoor the brothers while the truth is that this idea was thrown out there for 10 minutes and it was dismissed by Raul. Jared was never going to use the veto on Mitch according to Jordan's podcast coming from a person who watches the live feeds. Mitch had nothing to lose because he is the one to be voted out anyway so he went big and tried to convince the rest of the house that now he is at war with the trio and if they keep him he will use all his power to get them out which is a good thing for players like Ramsey, Tim, Nikki, Maddie and the brothers because this is exactly what THEY want.

Regarding Tai, I think he had such hope for his bromance Scot before the merge that now he is very disappointed in Scot seeing how he acts all manly with the "bros". I also think that Nick has informed Tai that Scot told him Tai has an idol. Both these things and the assumption the brains would be voting against Jason made him vote for him in an attempt to get him out and become the hero. I guess he only had this plan in his own head.

Yeah! I knew I had faith in my girl Cydney for a reason! What a great thing to do, finally be the one who can actually create and keep an all woman's alliance WHILE sitting pretty in your own alliance already! I loved it, this episode made me forgive all the boredom and predictability of this season. I hope this all woman's alliance goes a long way and a woman finally wins.

I'm sure Mitch has a plan just like Dan had a plan when he pulled that funeral trick. From what I understand Mitch wants to push for Joel to be voted out and he will try to gather all people who hate the three "cancers" (Jared - Raul - Kelsey) as much as he does and align with them and take them out. Mitch is a convincing person and given how much the rest of the house hate these three players and the connections he has already made with most of them, I predict he has a great chance to stay in the house. The only thing I hope is that Joel will understand his plan and try to be the one who will convince the rest of the house that he is willing to take the three cancers out as well so it's better to keep him. But what an interesting episode! Now this is the kind of player I want to see in there!

This is exactly my idea about this season since it began; that they are trying to pattern the US version. I was willing to forgive even the "international players" twist but this latest twist with Kelsey going back in just ruined the season even if my favourite player ends up winnning (at the moment this player is Joel). I just feel that there are only 2-3 people who are PLAYERS and the rest are there just for the fun. Just like Survivor, I love the strategy and I want to see strategists rather than funny characters who don't even know the game.

I don't agree. I think we have seen the progress in their lives, even though I am not sure if we can say it was them growing up and maturing rather than making new mistakes and learning things about themselves. We see Hannah try to live an adult life with a so called "good guy" and with a grown up job and failing at both for the same reason; she can't let herself grow up (the photos of the exes in Fran's phone and her reaction, how she is behaving in her job environment, how she deals with her boss etc). We see Marnie making a huge mistake (her marriage) and reaching a point where she can remove herself from that mistake, admiting she knew all along it was a mistake. We see Shosh adjusting to a strange environment beautifully and learning to have fun with it, and after losing her job we see her making decisions for her life (stay there - decide she wants to go back). In my opinion this is something I couldn't see coming from Shosh. I thought she'd be this whinny girl she normally is and she'll dislike everything about Japan but she found ways to become adjusted and this is a maturity sign. We see Jessa having feelings for another human being other than herself for the first time. I doubt these feelings are real though, I still believe she wants to enrage Hannah and show she can have a normal relationship - she can't unless she works with herself. We see Adam demanding what he wants (Jessa) and doing good in both their relationship and his professional life. I find this season to be really good with strong scenes and realizations about the characters. Yes, they do have a lot of work ahead of them in order for them to fully grow up but isn't this what real life is? Our way to maturity through our mistakes?

I'd disagree. I surely find Hannah innapropriate as hell but would you explain to me why her boss accepts her behavior and didn't fire her after her showing him her vagina? He is supposed to be the older and more mature person and in my eyes he is to blame more. Also, I do believe there are circumstances in real life where this kind of behavior exists by young women and make them win something, may it be a better grade from a teacher or a raise from a boss, a cancelation of a ticket from a policeman or free drinks at a bar and so on and on and on. I know we see it and we are like "wtf?" but this behavior exists out there.

I start to like this show more and more every episode. I don't care for most of the characters but it leaves me with a feeling of consolation that there are more people out there having problems other than myself. What I take from this episode is that characters in this show do not change; Hannah is always the innapropriate, spoiled, selfish person. Marnie is always the one who just doesn't think and wants reassurance all the time. Jessa starts to show some true feelings for Adam but I'm not sure of they are real or if she does it to enrage Hannah. Adam is once more a great actor and it's a joy to watch. I'd watch him play anything tbh. Fran needs to run away from Hannah asap. Poor Elijah. Why choose a public figure and demand a relationship from them? Why can't you find a normal person?

Someone on RHAP has said that in the first weeks the players were considering this would happen but Big Brother reasssured them this won't happen in any circumstance. I hate Kelsey. I hate the fact I get to see her and her crazy eyes again and I hate that she will stay for a long time. After Mitch or Joel go, then the Jared alliance is there till the end. I hope the underdogs + the internationals realize it sooner than later and turn this game around. I don't get why they got to turn off the live feeds only to show 1 minute of discussion about who is coming back. They could have done this on Thursday, keep the live feeds on and do the HoO comp and nominations on Synday as usual. We have to see whether the ratings for this episode were really that much higher than the rest, as people were expecting them to be.

Youtube is your friend:

I understand what you are saying, but wouldn't it be better for the beauty tribe to put their differences behind and become a strong four alliance team rather than being individuals who will only be used as a vote by the others and then be voted out?

I hate to say it but I'm really disappointed with the producers and whoever creates this show this year. First with putting in the house two "international" players (like they were out of Canadians to join the show), then with the fake double eviction that unfairly made Dallas leave the house even though making it further than both Kelsey and Loveita AND having these two girls know the secrets of the house by exchanging strategies in listening in the house. Above that, they announced one of them goes back into the house on Thursday and now we will wait until Sunday. How f$$%^$&ed up is that? Lying to the contestants and to the audience? I can't enjoy it anymore it seems. Plus I predict that whoever comes back will be voted out next eviction (unless they have immunity for a week, then it will be the eviction after that).

I am still wondering what is the deal with the beauty tribe. I would expect at least a discussion of the four where they would pretend to be together. What is the reason these four beauties cannot be an alliance? Why are the brawns and the brains units but the beauties not? What have we missed from the pre-swap period that makes no sense now? How can 3 brawns be stronger than 4 beauties + 4 brains when the easiest thing to do would be to start voting out the brawns and take it from there? Maybe what Neal could have done is, in front of everybody turn to Nick and give him his idol saying "since you are pretending to be aligned with everyone here, I'm giving this to you to help your game. Adios". What a chaos would that create? (I'm evil, I know :P)
