Poor Nick, he's Sean Penn & doesn't even know it ( Dead Man Walking-- not Jeff Spicoli ! ). Telling Tommy was probably not the smartest thing, but of course, Nick doesn't know Tommy & Christie have history. I get really sick of hearing Christie talk & talk ! Really wish it is her going home, but I'm sure it's not. 

Zingbot was really lame this year. They need better writers for the zings. And the rest of his act was just dumb.

I kind of over this whole season. I hope next year is better !

They did? That's weird. 

I wondered if the agent who stormed in at the end slipped on pie? Seriously, it must be everywhere. 

Despite everything I usually enjoy all the episodes. Apart from the pie throwing and the second hand embarrassment of watching Zingbot, I was sort of bored. Nothing unpredictable seems to be happening, strategy wise.

I thought blurring Cliff's manboobs was the only clever part of that whole scene.

We talk a lot about hating the procedural monotonies of having four people tell us how a comp works, "This is the nomination ceremony..." blah blah blah and so I feel it worth mentioning this is the second veto win where Jackson has skipped the "You each get a chance to tell me why I should use the veto on you." portion and gone right from "This is the veto meeting" to "I choose not to use the veto." Amen.

I, for one, love it. If only we could do that on voting night. I hate those speeches, even more so when they thank CBS and their long lost paw paw Hooter for looking out for them.

These people are so boring that it was basically impossible to come up with any good zings. Jackson’s zing made me laugh though because it wasn’t even really a zing, it was just straight up “You’re a dick. The end.” 

I’m clearly a horrible person because it bugs me that Christie wasn’t more upset about America siding with Nick.

I HATE zingbot's voice, it's painful to listen to.  y

But I also hate how he comes on and says "you're the biggest group of losers I've ever seen,"  and they all laugh hysterically as if that is the funniest, wittiest thing they ever heard.  (wait till they read social media after the show, they'll see that zingbot isn't the only one who thinks so)

If Zingbot is going to continue, could they please drop the stupid "skits?"  This time it was President Zingbot in jail?  Oh, hahaha.  And the agent was possibly more annoying than Zingbot himself.  The fact that he was still screaming "Whyyyyyyyy!!?" in the backyard as the houseguests were heading back in the house was so random - no one even reacted.  The entire thing was lame.

And maybe I'm just extra grouchy but pie in the face, after the first couple of times, gets exponentially less funny.  I suppose these people are so starved for something to do, they find it knee-slappingly hysterical whenever anyone gets face-pied, but I'm over it.  I may have smiled just a touch at the Veto ceremony while Christie and Nick sat stunned in their seats with tears in their eyes, waiting for Snackson to get pied, but that's only because I can't stand Christie or Nick.

I have to wonder if/when Christie and Tommy make the final two, how angry will the houseguests be when they discover the fact that they know each other on the outside?

They really do need to retire Zingbot if this is the best they can do. He needs new writers. The zings have been getting dumber every season for some reason.

I don't think that's the problem. Jackson alone is a veritable well of mockability. They just aren't putting any effort into coming up with something even a tad clever or witty.

The "agent" was the same actor who played the alien. I wonder who he is.

Okay so, UO for some sorry, but for me, this is the first episode I found boring. 😞
Before I vote to <sadly> evict any memory of this episode from my brain, true confessions time, I am now scarily addicted the BB...omg I just need to figure out what live streaming service to pick that has all 20 past seasons, (suggestions for Canada please?) Sorry to digress!
Back to why I didn't like this episode. In addition to boring, zingbot was so jarring, that I had to turn down the volume (and I usually need it cranked to make up for my 80's rock concert damaged ears!)
In addition to that, ffs Tommy! Dial it back dude! You were almost tolerable last week, now you're amping it back up again??
This episode, surprisingly did not have much to laugh at really either... which usually isn't that hard for me to find.
But the worst is... it looks like Christie Crunch is staying! <insert/delete profanity rant here>

So even though I didn't mind being unspoiled these past 2 weeks, I do think part of the reason that I found it boring, is that I've fallen behind 35 pages in the live feed thread (and I refuse to jump ahead)...anyway I miss all the behind the scenes details that make the actual show sometimes more interesting or helpful.
Anyway, so glad to recognise and read some hilarious LF posters over here! Dashing over there now to do some catching up!

What an emotional rollercoaster this show is!
