Agree 1000%. I'd even be ok with sending them home and letting them see what the buzz of the season was about and then airing a one hour special later on (Survivor style) to get the inside scoop. The BB finale is NEVER satisfying.
Except for the fact that Survivor's finale nowadays is about 22 minutes long and we don't really learn anything new anyway. And with BB's 'live feeds', don't viewers see more of what goes on throughout the season anyway? It's the viewer's own choice if they don't want to watch them.

Wasn't it Jackson who berated Nicole for putting her water bottle in the fridge or something? I may be remembering wrong.
It was Jack berating Kemi in front of the refrigerator. Nicole was there too.
As far as I recall, he made such a big deal out of it, that makes it sound as if it was the solution to a game of Clue.
'It was Jack in the Kitchen with the Refrigerator'.

That one clip of the big blow up was brutal. I don't know if I'll be able to watch the full scene when they show it on the next episode.
I'll be able to, with a big bowl of popcorn*
It must've been something, for them to put it off till next week. Either that or they think they have a Big Dramatic Scene to tease us with.
*That's a lie. I don't eat popcorn. Ever.

am 1000% sure he would never pronounce it “cockroach” he’s from Staten Island, I guarantee you he’d say “cock-a-roach!”

Those are both inaccurate stereotypes.

Tommy and Christie during the first quarter of the show:
'I love you. I love you too. I love you so much! I love you so much too!'
Tommy in the DR:
'Christie, I love you, I'll miss you...Oh, wait a sec. You went out and I'm still here. So see ya later...Adios...See ya on the flip side...BuhBye!'
I've seen comments that implied Dirt Baggy phoned in his appearance for the check. I disagree. I think he was doing his best to show some personality. Trouble is, he has no personality to SHOW. I think he was trying to recite his lines with enthusiasm, but he's the world's worst actor.

I read the whole thread this morning, so I was completely spoiled (I don't care enough to be unspoiled).
But when Julie said at the end that Dirt Baggy C and What's-Her-Name at the end would be back next week...I'd completely forgotten about that.
It was like a knife in my heart.

"I'm sorry you're upset." OMG. Douchebag assholery 101.
And the show has been trying SO HARD to redeem Jackson for the past month or so. Just to show his true colors like this. But I guess they couldn't resist since they're all about the Showmance. Good God, Holly, have a little self-respect. She's pathetic, and he's an asshole. Neither came off well.
Jackson is an absolute Prick. And that's a word I don't often use. He's a Prick and a manipulator.
He makes her cry (I don't believe for a second that she was faking it), walks out of room having done 99% of the talking, says 'I'm done with this conversation' then cozies up to her again.
I don't think she's pathetic. I think he's playing her like a fiddle, she wants to believe in it, and he knows how to 'work' her feelings and tell her what she needs to hear to get back in her good graces.

In general, I've liked Cliff.
But that borderline tearful segment of him dancing with his wife was the most obvious 'Vote me for AFP! See who I love! I'm so NICE!' pitch I think I've ever seen.

I liked the fact that at the beginning of his speech, Nick advocated for Mental Health awareness.

I need a season of all recruits who have never seen the game. And go back to basics, ie no twists.
I agree with you somewhat. But it really seems to me that nowadays, whether in movies or TV shows, people want and expect there to be a twist. Without them, they're 'boring'. I can't tell you how many reviews of films I've read that basically said, 'The whole movie was great, but I kept expecting a plot twist at the end, didn't get one, so it blows chunks'.
Even Survivor and, to a lesser extent TAR, have their share of twists. So I've just resigned myself to the fact that I have to accept them.

Depends on who’s doing the shoving, and what they’re wearing (or not wearing) at the time - but that’s getting WAY WAY into areas of personal preference, so we’ll just leave that’un there....
I choose to decide when, where and with whom whip cream is introduced into some kind of situation 😉

Squirting whip cream into a pre-made pie crust wasn't any type of punishment at all.
If someone shoved a whip cream filled, pre-made pie crust into my face or on my head I'd be really pissed.

That IS what he means, but he's just attempting to say it in an oddly poetic manner.
Thanks. Guess I oughtta pay more attention. Need to look at that clip again.

Is this a line from a movie? It's so fucking stupid, and it got more stupid each time he said it, in his serious voice. What the hell is it even suppose to mean?
I could definitely be wrong, but isn't it Tommy and Christie who live near each other? Maybe that's all he means...

Julie looked like she woke up (came to?) on some dirty floor.
I LIKE the look!

Just watched it. One thing I noticed was after the VETO noms, instead of the usual 'WOOO's!' and 'YEEAH's!', it sounded like your basic golf clap.
'Yeah, ok, so...cool. Whatever.' clap. clap. As if they forgot they're supposed to PERFORM all the damn time.
I've also seen comments about Anal-lice's unusual hairline. WHAT? As a guy who's lost about 75% of his hair by now, I'd fucking KILL to have that hairline. Hell, I'd love it if it came down to my eyebrows. 😉
It's funny. Even though I just watched the ep, there was one more comment I wanted to make, but I already forgot it. Shows how invested I am in this season, I guess.

I think I would rather be stuck in a Pandora's Box with Jessie for twelve days than to ever see Jack win the game.
I don't think I saw Jessie's original season. But wasn't he the one they kept bringing back to host some competitions, who had nothing to offer other than flex his muskles?
Given that he had air where his brains should be, I think that even if he won, he wouldn't understand what it meant.

I'd rather root for Paul to come back and win this time around than choose between Nick and Sis, at this rate.
BITE YOUR TONGUE
If Paul came within 10 miles of the BB house, no way, no how would I ever be watching. I couldn't watch that big, obnoxious mouth for another second. I wouldn't care if Jack won this season. And I hated Jack.

The Amanda/Andy and Christie/Tommy corollaries are STRIKING, right?
Absolutely - the Amanda/Christie and Andy/Tommy parallels have been ringing church bells for me so loud all season, they’d have had Quasimodo begging for a Xanax.
Does Quasimodo share? Because sometimes this season I'd friggin' kill for a Xanax just to help me get through these episodes.

This is so odd to me because I live in Rhode Island and besides JFK and Ted I have never heard Jack for John and Ted for Edward. Could it be a generational thing?
I am a late Gen-Xer. So is it a Baby Boomer and older thing?
I live in NJ. I had an uncle who died 9 years ago. He was probably born around 1939. His name was John (birth certificate), but everybody called him Jack. Nobody ever referred to him as John. He only used John when signing some kind of legal document, even on his bank accounts.

I just thought the Veto comp as a whole went on WAY too long to be interesting. There is nothing especially compelling about watching people spin around. They needed a time-lapse edit to show in which order they were eliminated, and that's about it. My FF button got a real workout.
I think the Veto episodes in particular are the most tedious because they are so heavily scripted and filled with obligatory DRs from the contestants telling us why they need to win the Veto or why they don't want to win the Veto or what their strategy is for winning the Veto, etc.
And do we really need to spend every Veto episode on this ridiculous "picking players for the Veto" ceremony like it's edge-of-your seat suspenseful? Do we need the HoH to explain the rules for picking Veto players every GD week?
There's so much pointless time filler crap.
I, for one, am ONLY really interested in the competitions and the stuff that goes along with them. The rest is just filler.

Award-winning stand-up comedian and actor. Perhaps still best known for being a supporting cast member on King of Queens for years (it's obviously far from the top of his career, critically, but it was a really popular show that ran for years and still airs in syndication, ya know?). He is currently the narrator on The Goldbergs.
Thanks, Brian Cronin. I've heard of (and seen commercials for) King of Queens but I've never seen an episode of it. And I've only barely heard of The Goldbergs.
No, I don't watch much TV, so yes, I pay too much for cable. I need to do something about that.

Season 21 Live Feed Discussion
in Past Seasons
Really? I thought this was one of the most INTERESTING episodes. Usually the episodes can't hold my interest much but this one held my interest throughout. And seeing what an idiot Cliff really is was part of that.
And I saw a post by someone, somewhere who said 'This is why I don't like to read the Live Feeds thread. I prefer to just see what I see on the show.' when referring to how Jackson was given help by producers. That's exactly WHY I like to read the live feed threads. I wanna know what bullshit they're pulling behind the scenes.
Jackson, you really are overdoing it in the emotional territory. Whoever said you're treading Norman Bates waters was right. Your DRAMA meter is off the charts. But keep pitching for those votes.
