Well, he looks like he was transported straight from the 1970s, so there’s that. Maybe time travel is one of the twists. What is this “introduction” bullshit? No likes and dislike? No pet peeves

BB26 has been marked safe from Frankie Grande - although he's been quiet after defending his sister against the cannibalism allegations, he's also recovering from a very fresh nose job (link goes to his IG that's post surgery and spectacularly bruised).

I know he would be one of the longest of long shots for a returning HG but just in case anyone's day needed a little extra sparkle, there you go.

ETA: Just for fun, I went through the new crop of HGs favourite players (Parade link) and the most mentioned were Tyler, Kaycee, and Da'Vonne but Angela came a close second so they definitely showed them BB20 in sequester so I believe the returning HG is the Sam!bot. I refuse to hear any counter-arguments lalalala i can't hear you

Sambot is actually not a bad guess, with the AI theme. But maybe not with Sam inside. That’s a loose cannon that’s been fired one too many times. (Although her presence could explain the lack of flashback feeds. No evidence!)  Nah, Zingbot’s moving in. Or Dr. Will! He certainly meets the “artificial” criteria.

I think you made the show's point for them. They don't want you to be able to go back and verify something damaging to the show. 

Ding ding ding. But like @SummerDreamssaid, there are other ways to record it so good luck trying to keep whatever horrible things this season's HGs say quiet, CBS!

I haven't even looked at the cast. Maybe I can finally be somewhat free of this. I mean, I'm still watching tonight but still lol.

Is it true that Angela has been on Dr. Phil, The Price is Right, and Let's Make a Deal?  LOL, she must have a relative who's a bigwig at CBS.

Yes, yes and yes and she won $20k on LMaD.

According to IMDB, she was on House Calls with Dr. Phil season one, episode 1, titled “Traumatized and Dramatized”, from 2021. It says it’s available to rent on Amazon. If you rent it, please give us a summary of the crazy.

There's a video linked on Angela's thread that has some of the dr phil stuff.  Dysfunctional family, dad yells, daughter drinks at age 14, dad punishes her, takes her phone,  Angela intervenes, sneaks it back to her,  daughter doesn't speak to dad for 5 years while living in the house. Some weird thing about having separate Christmas celebrations  in different rooms says to me that angela enabled the entire thing.

RIP to Frank Eudy (BB14, BB18)'s dad, wrestling megastar Sid.  (Aka, Sid Vicious, Sid Justice, Sycho Sid, etc.)  Sid, who headlined both WrestleMania VIII and XIII, was 63, having battled cancer for several years.

The WWE aired a video tribute (even though Sid is not in their Hall of Fame, allegedly due to personal issues between him and Vince McMahon), which isn't on YouTube as yet, but this is a nice fan-made memorial, and various other tributes (both new and old) then should show in your flow:

(I would put this in Frank's thread, but the Past Constestant threads are currently locked.)

Horrible article about Zach and his family being harassed for ten years. Someone has sent thousands of emails to not only Zach but to his mother and father and also has been trying to ruin his realtor business.  This has been going on for ten years.  Watch both videos.  Yikes, if I was planning on doing a reality show, this would stop me cold.  Zach says they've tried everything and they can't trace who this person is, so he's reaching out to the fandom to see if they know anything.

As Zach explained it ... "Big Brother" fans were really invested in his flirtationship with Frankie -- commonly referred to as "Zankie" -- repeatedly voicing their frustrations over the failed fling.

Zach proceeded to give samples of the harassment he's experienced since his season wrapped in 2014 ... including the various homophobic slurs, antisemitic insults and explicit death threats he's received via email and text.

Zach says he's printed out 4 months worth of emails ... filling 4 massive binders.

ZR initially thought the outrage would die down ... especially as the years went on and he came out as bisexual in 2020. But unfortunately for Zach, the bullying only got more severe and alarming as time went on.

And let's never forget, Frankie did a lot of nonconsensual groping of Zach during the season.   Bad enough as it was, but disgusting if it helped trigger these sorts of threats.

I seldom watch the feeds, so I haven't seen much of Quinn's attempts to woo Leah, but yikes--that is indeed cringeworthy like everyone's been saying.

Can someone explain Kimo's cover to me? Did he give them so little material that the best idea was just to have lava spurting from his amputated hands? Unless the volcano theme references the various bodily noises that he emits, implying he's likely to spew at any moment, in which case that's just kind of mean. 

But they didn't seem to know what to do for Rubina, either. Or Kenney. Or Brooklyn, really. Her whole season came down to a piece of stolen ham. (And shouldn't the "hide your salami" tagline be on Rubina's poster?)

I actually thought Lisa's was pretty amusing, although they should have made her look more demented. 

Cam's is appropriate, given how he's fading into the background. I was hoping for an ottoman, but that will do.

I like the glitter part, but I thought it was kind of mean of them to put her in a troll body instead of a regular body.

That one's got me stumped as well.  And Kenny's is just plain weird.  Matt's kind of looks like Jerry Seinfeld.  They've got MK's flowing hair down pat.  My favorite was Tucker's.

Kimo is from Hawaii, which has had its own volcanic issues fairly recently….

I've been looking for a post-game interview with Chelsie where she is asked "If you'd won the final HOH, who do you choose?  Cam or MJ?"   But I haven't found one and I'm too lazy to sit through a bunch of podcasts.  

She more or less says she would have taken Makensy in this interview with Parade.  But I'm still not convinced.  Chelsie is smart and she wanted to win.  But maybe she is also smart enough and nice enough to not want to pile on MJ, who now owns one of the dumbest moves in BB history. 

This interview also reveals that Chelsie still thinks she and Cam could happen.  Dang girl.

I suspect she’s saying she would have taken MJ because MJ took her. It doesn’t really matter now, so why not choose the more diplomatic answer that would make MJ feel better? In private, she’s probably telling Cam it was him. If things had been different and Chelsie was taken to the end by Cam, I think the public answer to that question would have been “Cam”, although she might have given a different answer to MJ privately.

I also think Chelsie knew she would win no matter who she sat beside, so she’s probably glad she never had to reveal the actual answer to that question.

I am not so sure it was a dumb move. I think MJ made a clever move. She exited the house and hard ring fenced herself against trolling. 

Can you imagine if she took Cam and not Chelsie how she would now be perceived? I think the hate her way would have been intense.... she would be called a coward and jealous and worse. Much worse. 

By taking Chelsie she protected herself in the outside world. Big time.

I was thinking this exact thing a few days ago.  I think there's a large group of Chelsea fans who were wanting and expecting her to win.  If MJ didn't take her, she could have been subjected to trolling, harassment, doxing, people calling up her clients and trying to make trouble, etc.  I'm sure the vast majority of the Chelsea fans wouldn't do that, but there are always a few trolls in every fandom and it only takes a tiny handful of people to make someone's life miserable.  It may all be a blessing in disguise.

Actually she would have been highly praised online for making the right move to win the game. 

So no, she goes down in the "outside world" as being a total dummy. 

And a coward for not having the courage to make the big move to win but instead being a weakling unable to break free of Chelsie's control.

Except she's still getting trolling from those who thought that she made a dumb move.

On another note, she seems to have finally started renouncing Chelsie now that she's started grasping just how much she was played by her.

Is there any info regarding Rubina and Tucker? Are they a couple now?

How did Cam react finding out that Chelsie has a crush on him?

Tucker refers to Rubina often in his Instagram stories.  I saw today that there's a photo of them at a Halloween party.  Tucker's dressed as Ace Ventura-Pet Detective and Rubina has a ballerina-type outfit on.  And yesterday, he said on IG "Don't worry, Tubina (their couple name) is alive and well.  More to come soon."  And Tucker has said in interviews that he's crazy about her.  So they definitely seem like an item.    

I haven't heard of what Cam thought of Chelsie's crush.

It was the most successful twist to be honest. Thursdays for live feeders were mostly, yada yada, let X get voted out and see who wins the next hoh. Now nobody knows who will get evicted on Thursday. It has created a new interest and new dynamics for the strategy part (nominate someone who is good at competitions so they win and so on). Also, the three nominees creates more stress for the hoh and they get more "blood in their hands".

Below is Sharon Tharp's interview with Angela which was posted today.  Angela admits she fake-cried sometimes and she also acknowledged that her paranoia got her in trouble.

 

Below is Sharon Tharpe's interview with Quinn, which was posted this week.  He says he wasn't surprised to be voted to be put on the block by America because he was Tucker's arch-nemesis and he had no doubt that Tucker was America's favorite.
