Yep, people really ARE delusional at this point. Josh also took Paul (which worked out, but still).

Josh really worked the jury though. And he seemed to actually recognize that people were not going to be happy with how Paul played. Basically, he was thinking more than MJ lol. Even Cody knew Derrick would win but was happy to lose to him. I can't decide whether that's more or less embarrassing than MJ thinking she has a shot to beat Chelsie.

Apparently, Chelsie also promised Cam she'll take him to F2 if she wins so I am now definitely assuming she plans to throw. That's a really unnecessary move if she's not. But she wins no matter what so she might think it's an OK risk to take.

The one who was stalking Reilly who he said he loved like his daughter. The one that was a misogynistic creep and production hid all this from the casuals so they voted for his as AFP.

Nope.  Still don't recall him at all.

Cam was the comp beast, Army veteran who served out Country, and single dad with a young daughter.  He beat out Cirie and Matt for America's Favorite Houseguest.  Showmance America and Cory didn't even make the Top 3.

Still nothing.  I saw all the episodes too.  Guy made zero impression on me.  Like most BB peeps.

I remember Jag only cause they had him on just now, haha.  And Circe because she had several seasons of Survivor already.  And the other woman near her age with false teeth.  That was it for that season.  Which is more than I remember most seasons of BB.

Anyway thanks for trying to jog my memory but I already deleted 99% of last season's files it seems.  Happens every year.  No room on ye olde head harddrive to keep memories of reality show types.

I can’t decide which would be more entertaining: Makensey’s face when Chelsie chooses to take Cam, or Chelsie’s face when Cam chooses to take Makensey. (OK, that would never happen, and not just because Cam couldn’t win a comp with a 30-minute head start and someone whispering the answers into his ear. But it’s still fun to contemplate.)

Cam's fully out now. Part 3 is between Chelsie and MJ. Cam pulling a Drew/Jon Pardy would have been really fun but he would have never done it even if he had managed to win a comp.

But we'll either get Chelsie embarrassing MJ by picking Cam or Chelsie embarrassing MJ by telling the jury she controlled MJ's every move so some fun in an otherwise boring, predictable finale.

[peachmangosteen]

So, last night Chelsie told Cam she's worried about losing to MJ. Cam told her it might be close but she'll still win and that he doesn't care if she doesn't take him. Useless 'til the end, that guy lol. She essentially told him she doesn't want to make a mistake by picking MJ but that she knows it'll hurt MJ if she doesn't pick her. Basically, I don't think she actually knows yet which way she'll go. 

[Callaphera]

Are we there ye- oh, we kinda are. Damn. Now what am I going to do every morning instead of posting that - housework? Yard work?! Ugh.

[Callaphera]

P.S. If anyone knows of an east coast stream of Big Brother tonight, please hit up my inbox. I promise not to nominate you for eviction if I win HoH. And if I do, it's because I need someone I can trust in the AI Arena but there's usually a line of volunteers for that position so you should be safe. Totally.

[Rodney]

Aaaaaaaand the feeds are over.  They came on for about an hour after the houseguests woke up so that Cam, Chelsie, and Makensy could do some final cleaning up and say goodbye to the fans, and now they're done.

As always, I teared up when Taran said "I'll see you... next season". :(

I legit don't understand how hurting MJ has even factored into Chelsie's thinking here.

Probably because she's spent so long with her. She isn't a robot apparently lol.

Oh yea, they started selling it during Jankie week. I have my shirt on right now, in honor of the finale lol.

[peachmangosteen]

Apparently, the first thing shown on the feeds this season was Chelsie/Makensy and that was also the last thing shown. This season really is special imo lol.

 

[Thalia]

Farewell to my favorite forum thread for another season.   This was one of the better seasons in my memory, but without you guys BB26 would have been just another reality show.   Thanks for the fun and here's hoping we can get together again next summer. 

[30 Helens]

This really was a great season, at least for awhile. But I agree with @Thalia, what elevates every season is the community, humor and snark on these pages. I am very ready to say goodbye to the season, but saying goodbye to you lovely people is always more difficult. I hope this space is still functional next year, but if not, I sincerely hope we can meet up somewhere else. I can’t watch this show without you!

In the meantime, looking forward to complaining about tonight’s results with all of you on the live stream.

And how were we to know this store was in Tampa?  And who pays attention to that intro crap anyway.  Also working in one and what he might be doing now are two different things.

Gee, Skooma, I really HATE to be right. Oh wait. I don’t hate to be right. OF COURSE Julie was going to ask Joe how he was doing post Milton. It was made very clear he lived and worked there. Maybe pay more attention next year? And try not to dismiss somebody who clearly knows how things work more than you.

Thanks for the great season, y'all. I was supposed to skip this one but I just can't seem to quit you. See you all again next season which is probably gonna suck because this is still Big Brother, after all  - I just want to get a jump on hating the new season, you know, stretch those muscles a little since they didn't get much use this season.

Also I just want to point out - this is my first season without a single fucking mod warning (no, it's too late, you can't send me one now, it doesn't count, nyah nyah). Not one deleted post. This is growth. I have grown. I'll have to try harder next season.

[PhoneCop]

What an odd season. Most of the cast didn't pop as individuals, but we got entertaining chaos anyway, thanks in part to TPTB coming up with a new twist that actually worked. What's the saying? Oh yeah, Expect the Unexpected.

Thanks as always to the feed watchers. And now I can happily delete the spellings of Chelsie and (especially) Makensy's names from my hard drive.

Oh great and powerful and all knowing one, sorry but I still don't care.  🤣

No, really.  I never cared in the past and I will never care in the future.  I don't pay attention to intros.  No reason to.  So no. I will NOT pay attention next year ... if the planet is still around.

And I did NOT dismiss you.  I never said I disbelieved you.  I just said I personally don't bother about trivial info about 15 minutes of fame reality people like this.  Maybe read what I actually said. 

As for Tampa, I used to live there.  I'm not without empathy you know.

 

[SummerDreams]

The second half of the finale was entertaining and Julie was really fun and let them be fun as well. I actually enjoyed it. Chelsie is a worthy winner that I'm happy to never see or think about again. I hope next year they continue with the AI arena so we have unpredictable eviction nights and that they find more people who know the game and care to win (MJ, Kimo, Cam, Rubina, Kennie and more, I'm talking about you). And it was a unanimous vote, that was amazing. It really showed that comp beasts should not win by default and maybe this becomes a norm from now on after many comp beasts winners.

Thanks to everyone in here for their comments, hope we are all healthy next year to meet again.

In my country there's a song that says "let God keep us safe so we always meet and have fun", and I always say it when an era ends.

Happy winter everyone! 😘

Thanks again to the folks on this thread for making BB bearable.  Especially the hard working re-cappers and humorous comments contributors.  👍
