{Spoiler}There's also the factor that one previous HG who has opened the box talked about. They claim that production in so many words said, "Uh, yes, you are opening it.".

As bad as this looks from CBS, I still don't think it's as blatant and ridiculous as this one. Even worse than Evel Dick and Dani being held by the hand and walked to the final 2, this one sticks out to me as the most blatant, "WE CAN'T LET THIS HAPPEN" move ever in the game: (6:31) THE GUINEA PIGS?! I was actually thinking about this the other day, and oh damn I agree with you 100%. Ryan was the only person I liked in that entire game and even I was like "That's ridiculously unfair." The question is bad enough, but the part that gets you is Julie's hesitation that seems to last forever. It's so obvious she's checking with someone in production asking what to say.

Back to back posts. {Spoiler}If I've got a 1 in 5 guaranteed shot at half a million dollars, no way am I taking that chance. There was absolutely no benefit she could get from it unless it allowed her to compete in next week's HOH. Greed rules the world kids, and Big Brother just played on it. {Spoiler}I wouldn't either but they *all* do it. Porsche's not any worse than any of the other ones who have done it.
Also, I think a lot of it is curiosity too. They're bored as f*** in there and a "box" sitting there, taunting them is going to wear them down. Especially if they *may* get something from it. {Spoiler}The only way Porsche's is worse is that she opened it so close to the end of the game when she's basically got a cakewalk to the finals. There aren't many benefits that could come her way this late in the game besides cash. But yeah, it's definitely the curiousity. I'd just like to believe a more game savvy or intelligent player wouldn't have done it. Unfortunately we don't have any of those left.

{Spoiler}ERM...Let's say that Jordan/Preggers go up and then Adam/Shelly win Veto and use it on them. WTF happens? There's no one to replace them with.

It's such a blatant "oh shit, our favorite investments are about to leave back to back. Damn, what can we do? WAIT, I HAVE IT!" thing. They didn't bother to even think it through. There are literally only 2 people of the 6 left in the house that the Veto twist benefits. And conveniently, it's Jordan and Rachel. If Adam and Shelly used it, I guess they would put themselves on the block.

Lane day 56. They usually do Pandora's Box later in the game. What they don't usually do is make the negative twist something that's good for two people who aren't the HOH. It's either good for the HOH and not all the others, or good for all the others and not the HOH.

This is more Season 5 than Season 9. Nothing is Season 9.
Season 9 was the only season I hadn't watched and I finished it recently. I knew Adam got arrested, but I didn't know about Matt. He ended up being the only one in the house I half way liked, then after the show he gets arrested for being involved in a drug ring and trying to strangle his girlfriend to death.
Good times that cast. Good times.

Until now that is Eh this is bad but it's not "let's gang up on one girl in front of the entire house, berating and making fun of her and throwing the fact that her father hanged himself in her face because it would be hilarious to see her cry" bad.

On top of that, Season 9 was a bunch of skanky moderately attractive people plowing each other the whole season. If you're into VD that was your season.
I should have known it was going to be awful when they didn't even air the premiere in my area until 4am. I actually saw After Dark before the actual premiere and had no clue wtf was going on.

The live feeds for Season 9 may give you the same STDs that Joshuah claims unprotected anal sex can not.

The night he jumped out of the hot tub and started yelling right in poor Amanda's face... I swear if I was there I would have swept the leg and not had a problem doing so. That dude was a pathetic human being.

I had actually forgetten some of the terrible crap he pulled. I hope people can look back at how he and others (Chima, Cappy, etc) acted and realize that these people aren't really that bad. I mean, I didn't like Natalie by any means. She was one of the worst players ever and was basically just there to fellate Matty, but nobody deserves to be treated the way Joshuah treated people.
When this season is over we seriously have to keep a Big Brother Discussion going. I need to lament over James' runs in season 6 and All-Stars.
