Head of Household and Nominations

Airs 10/12.

[mojoween]

I totally forgot this was on tonight until James Rhine tweeted about it.  Too much sports competition on a Monday night!

Nicole sucks.  “They’re all sad that I won.” That is not at all what Christmas said dingus.  Don’t change the narrative just to fit your persecuted hero story.

For someone who is all gung-ho to make big moves, Enzo sure does want everyone else to do the dirty work for him.

Christmas probably would have put up Nicole and Cody.  It feels weird and unsettling to have rooted for her.

Is there not a lock on that damn bathroom door?

Nicole scrubbed all the hotness right out of Victor.

There are a lot of things in my life I will not EVER do, and searching for Enzo’s feet on Instagram has moved to the tippy-top of the list.

Does Nicole still not know a lot of the reason she won is because she wasn’t Paul?  The pool float would have gotten four votes in that season.

When Nicole told Cody, "I hold your Big Brother life in my hands" and then dropped the remote with a sickly sweet smile on her face, it occurred to me she could be a bargain basement Gone Girl, if she had the will and the drive and ... didn't appear to need men for validation.

[Tuxcat]

Nicole with the cutesy little girl edit is getting annoying. She's 28. She's won the game. She has 600 thousand followers already. She's not 2.

Also, if they can't lock the bathroom, then how about developing some sort of code you know? Put a towel on the door. Sheesh.

[North of Eden]

Good grief that was dreadful!

Based on Cody's narration at what COULD happen to him if Christmas won...was there one person in America who didn't know she was going to choke and snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory?

Not sure what I care less about...Enzo's feet or Nicole and Victor's romance (And Victor's stock dropped in half without his long hair...he looks so ordinary now-even Memphis is a better looking guy)

Nicole must be a complete dimbulb not to know that of course Cody's reaction would be to want to get rid of Christmas THIS week and not next.

And so of course the episode closes once again with the nominations of two people who have no shot at winning while what should be the number one target sits back laughing all the way to the bank.

Shouldn't that be the 'tippy-toe' of the list? Heh. That was more than mildly disturbing I must admit. What is Enzo a cam girl now that people ask to see his feet?? And if so who the hell is visiting that channel?

It's SO easy to just KNOCK but nobody seems to do it yo. Why?? And why have these two things become public knowledege? This season is SO in the dumpster that they are scrambling for details like this to show us? Unreal.

This has become my obsession.  If there isn't a lock, that's sick.  If there is and Enzo refuses to use it, that's sick.

I noticed that too.  Really fucking weird.... 

I hate Christmas so much more than Nicole.  I don't feel anything about Nicole.  So this was a good outcome for me.

I didn't watch it but if they had to use the discussion of Enzo's feet as filler, this thing is really limping across the finish line barely alive. Just take it out behind the barn and put it and us out of our combined misery. Please. I'm begging you. 

[leocadia]

On the one hand, I rather enjoyed watching the self-proclaimed "comp beast" melt down about her one and only failure.  (Sure, Jan.)  However, I don't think that was nearly enough compensation for having to endure Cody/Nic/Enzo revel in the win. I wouldn't feel so irritated by it if they had experienced any kind of obstacle during this season--and no, Ian being evicted before Kevin doesn't count.

I'm just tired of this whole season and wish it would go away.  

[Lamb18]

I noticed "Good King Wenceslas" playing in the background at one point. I can't remember if Christmas was in that scene.

YES!  They played it both times when she was walking in on Enzo in the bathroom 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[BK1978]

I missed Thursday's episode because Supernatural was on and I am far more invested in the outcome of that show. 

The thing is, there has been really nothing on all weekend so I could have easily watched Thursday's show.  However, I kept on finding myself saying, "What's the point?", so I never bothered to watch Thursday's episode.

I was strongly debating on if I wanted to be bothered watching this episode.  I did end up watching and it just was not enjoyable. 

I do not want anyone of these five to win.  I mean I guess Enzo if I had to choose but yeah, I am not interested in watching the coronation of Cody.  At least last season there was a slight chance Cliff, Nicole, or even Tommy might beat Jackson (a slim one).  But this season it just seems like it is a push towards a Cody victory.

There is not a lock. I think I read it’s because of fire/safety reasons. There IS, however, a lever that displays “occupied/ not occupied” , or “in use/ not in use” — I forget the wording, but I’ve seen it. It’s the same thing they have on airplane bathrooms, just without the lock. So it’s possible that some people have walked in without noticing the occupied status, but my guess is Enzo is just too lazy to turn the lever.

So, let’s recap: Last time, Nicole was carried through the game by a man, started to make moves at the end just to prove she wasn’t completely inept, and then got the votes because the jury didn’t want to reward the person next to her. Sound familiar? Maybe she’s counting on people being bitter at Cody for backstabbing them.

But this time, the jury should correct the mistake that was made in S18.  I say, Moolan for the win!!

Most seasons don't even bother with that. It's pretty standard to knock on the door and listen for a shout if someone is in there. If there's silence, they walk in. So either the blame is on Nicole for not knocking (again, standard operating procedure since forever and a day and for this season) or Enzo for not saying anything because it's "funny". 

I know one of the times before that Nicole walked in on Enzo in the shitter, David - who was sitting on the bathroom couch - told Nicole that Enzo was in there and she opened the door without knocking anyway and then laugh-screamed as she ran away. They used that clip twice this season, the week it happened and as the bumper to the opening credits in the next episode. It's the BB22 version of James Huling jumping out of the trash can to scare people.

It was Christmas, not Nicole.

I skipped through most of the episode, once the HoH was decided it was all quite predictable.

I am more concerned with the number of people who don't apparently wash their hands after touching that nasty bathroom doorknob.  Whether someone goes into the bathroom to use it or not, just touching that doorknob and not washing afterward is just gross.

Most of them barely wash their hands after they actually use the bathroom so you are definitely expecting way too much out of them!

[HartofDixie]

Could be just a coincidence but these were the two comics they posted at the end of the episode.

Half the show was the competition, the other half was bathroom and feet.  Never in a million years did I expect an All Star season of BB to go down as one of the most boring in the show's history.

No kidding!   The change was rather stunning.   I watched him carry her through The Amazing Race as well.   Poor Victor.

Not only that but either they think Christmas walking in on Enzo in the bathroom is high-larious or they literally have nothing else to show us because they actually showed that happening two different times.

Sadly this was true all the way back in week 1.

[Cherry Cola]

Did you know there really is a whole weird world where people will pay big money for foot pics? It's true.  And...weird. 

Enzo is all talk and no action. I'm bored of him.  I have no one to root for anymore! 😥

I couldn't relax to use bathroom if there was no lock. Yuck.

See?  No accuracy whatsoever.

Once the comp was over and Nicole won, it was obvious who would be nominated. I knew the rest of the episode would be nothing but filler, so I FF'ed through it and it looks like I was right. Glad I didn't waste my time watching bathroom & feet hijinks.

[springbarb]

I wanted Christmas to win and still was annoyed with her reaction when she lost. I can't even root for the person I was rooting for (in that moment).

And Nicole? Evicting Memphis or Christmas isn't a big move. There are five people left. But good on you for winning HOH, I guess.

No, it's called doing other people's dirtywork.

I think she's actually doing her own dirty work. It just happens to be what the other two want as well.

Enzo said specifically that he was glad she won to "Do his dirtywork".

Enzo says a LOT of shit - some of it even true, on occasion.

Right now, what she wants aligns with what Cody and Enzo want. So, from Enzo's  perspective, he might think she's doing his dirty work. From her perspective, she's doing her own. I see it as her doing what she wants.

[HeShallBMySquishy]

So, does the washroom toilet door just not have a lock whatsoever? What the fuck? Reason 366 I would never be involved in the Big Brother house. One toilet for sixteen strangers? No fucking way, especially if houseguests are keen on sitting on the toilet and not letting others know they are on the pot.

I give the same side-eye to those who feel that sitting on the toilet is the perfect place for reading. When I think of reading, I imagine stretching out on a comfortable sofa for maximum comfort. Not once have I thought that sitting on a toilet seat, stewing in one's own juices is the perfect way to get to the next chapter.

Wow, Enzo knows the word pompous. I'm honestly surprised he knows words that are longer than one syllable. It seems that not a lot of people know that these days, what with all the abbreviating. Hell, cursive isn't even being taught in schools anymore. Sad face.

[HeShallBMySquishy]

Oh, and Victor with the clean-shave and the short hair? YES please. I will take whatever he is peddling, as long as he keeps his current look.
