No buy backs, or return to the game shit. Enough. That's one of the reasons why people say the season doesn't get started until all of that is done. It's hard to play a game knowing one of them may come back. Enough with the twists. You got 16 houseguests in solitary confinement pretty much. It writes for itself. Yeah, this is my chief area of complaint. Why bother making a big move early when there's a better than average chance of it becoming meaningless due to a twist?

{Spoiler}
interesting stuff {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}o apparently the live feeds were down for a bit last night and the houseguests are on lockdown from going outside because someone from the outside went by the backyard with a megaphone shouting that Tommy and Christie know each other. {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW} Good. I hope the rest of 'em do figure it out. I don't care if Christie is gone this week, Tommy deserves to have his game blown up too. I loathe that the 2 of them were set up to succeed from the get-go. It also shows lack of consistency given that Elissa Riley was pretty outed by Julie herself, which eventually sunk her game. I didn't care for either Riley sister, but that was garbage

Julie's a garbage host. She can barely say a sentence without botching it up.

If that's true (and it's a believable theory), then it's even worse. You start casting and then opt to change up the format, which changes the dynamic of what you're looking for.

Would you expect anything else? Grodner is very lazy with the show, not just with the same comps but they literally cast the exact same style of people every year. They look for each "character" and fill that role.

Add me to the group of wanting things to change a bit. The Challenge definitely does a good job of it. It’s not perfect, but I always can’t wait for the next episode.

In light of America's Field Trip turning out to be a failure, if they really wanted to ensure an unpopular houseguest got the boot, they should've done what BB Canada did once with the Canada's HOH twist, in which the viewers make the nominations and the replacement nominee if necessary.

Julie's a garbage host. She can barely say a sentence without botching it up. Which makes her perfect for this dumb show. *whispers* I actually like Julie. She has a good sense of humor about herself and her imperfections as a host really are perfect for this stupidity.

She has a good sense of humor about herself and her imperfections as a host really are perfect for this stupidity.She seems like a nice person. She does have a weird role as this sort of omniscient host that addresses the players as a group unholy and then separately after elimination, so I can see that being tough. That said, she's too rough at times for me.

I picked (well my gf started to watch again) the wrong time to start watching, though last season was good.

I picked (well my gf started to watch again) the wrong time to start watching, though last season was good. If you're willing and able to watch past seasons, I'd recommend six and ten. Two of my favorites, with some of my favorite players of all time. Last season was an anomaly of a treat. Definitely in my top tier for seasons.

Tommy: You can look at me and see home.
Christie: What?!?
Tommy: YOU CAN LOOK AT ME AND SEE HOME
Christie: *blubbering nonsense*

Well f***. {Spoiler}It’s now looking like Christie is going to stay. She had a big blowup with Nick yesterday and Holly was already afraid of Nick, so she worked on getting Jackson to flip to want to keep Christie. Jessica already has a vendetta against Nick (and Nicole), so she wants Nick out already, and of course Tommy is going to keep his real life friend. So that’s at least 3 votes, and Jackson already told Nicole that if it’s a tie, he’s voting out Sis.
f***. Christie and Tommy are going to the finals.

{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}Christie has played the last 2 days brilliantly. And she is doing shit on A serious Dr. Will and Dan level where she can just make up the randomest thing and have people believing her lies. That said it f***ing sucks how unfair of an advantage her and Tommy have and either's win would taint a series that is Harlem Globetrotters/WWE level rigged anyway. More then anything though it leaves open a big mystery,because both her and Tommy are probably good enough socially and manipulatively that either is a strong enough player to contend for the win in a cast without the other one.

I think I'm all good with never ever watching this show again.
