Someone posted a thread on Reddit posted that Dominque is pointless on the feeds and based on that talk show, I can see why. Boring.

Dom's gonna go far and get taken out in the 4/5/6 range for being a blatantly obvious threat to win.

Cody didn't lose to Paul, he lost to 3 weeks fuckery.

If he gets back in he's still susceptible to said fuckery.

There's still a good chance Cody went up and out even if he got Paul out last week.

People quickly picked up on the creepiness stuff and were cracking jokes about it. Guys like him go early (see: S6 Eric.)

Julie is right - people didn't boo him because he played the game and was a competitor. I do agree he got a bit screwed by twists, but that is the game. It would be like complaining in sports about injuries and asking "what if..." - just isn't reality.

People didn't boo him because they deliberately fill the audience with people who won't boo them.

He went against an alliance of 5+ people without consulting them. He burned all the trust, he was persona non grata.

Dat empty spot on the comp wall. Are we assuming the battle back is so soon because Megan left?

Also, why do I love Mark so much?

I understand that but he did everything necessary to get Paul out. He probably could've gotten the votes had the nomination gone through. Cody didn't get protected in the first week so he had no special attachment to Paul. Same for half of the house.

The best, or worst, part was when Paul used chess comparisons to beating Cody.

Normally I wouldn't post so frequently about Big Brother, but that last part put it over the top. :p

BB8 taught me not to get invested. The loss of the original head EP was huge, it was all fuckery, all the time after that.

Cody was slightly more likeable in his chat with Julie, but he still said too many ridiculous things in the house.

Paul told Kevin to vote for Ramses. Not sure why Christmas did.

They were talking about it and I guess she told people she was going to do it to "
stir the pot
". Pretty stupid reason, it is actually
putting her name in circulation right now, people not a fan of it.

Now hoping Jess gets evicted next week just so we can watch her and Cody compete against each other to get back in. Wonder if he'd throw it.

Not counting on Jess going next though. If she's smart she's already laying low. There are other targets that will present themselves naturally.

Dom is the target. Once again a black contestant is blamed for something they didn't do and is being targeted by their so called alliance. Black people need to stop going on this show because it's not for us. It's been years since a black person has placed in the single digits, now and days it's hard for them to make jury. I'm gonna see how this week plays out then I'm going to cancel my feeds.

Hey, no one forced her to do that talk show/ make that comment. That was solely on her.

I don't want this show to turn into a "oh let's get a group of people far into the game because we may have been unfair to them in the past" show, do you?

This game is a social game. She hurt her social game. No one forced her to make that comment.

It's partly a numbers game in that. Have a season where they flip the racial makeup, have 2 or 3 white people and the rest of the cast mostly black. But that's never going to happen.

I'd put money on the audience demographic matching the casting almost exactly. BB has never, ever shown a bit of interest in diversity beyond a few gay house guests. I expect the vast majority of the audience is white, and CBS assumes those white people want to see more white people.

Racial progress on BB means casting your token black woman with someone who ISN'T crazy.

Whoa hold up......never say definitite's in life because there's always a chance you could be wrong. Danielle was a GREAT player in her season and basically it's her and Will that I think of when I think Big Brother US. Marcellies (sp) got a lot of exposure in his season too )don't know if he was a good player or not) but the show focused alot on him in and around that season. So sure I agree with you, it hasn't been that way in a long time but it's also a "never, ever" thing either.

And my first post deliberately didn't bring up race. You can kind of tell from the replies now who the house is targeting this week it doesn't need to be spoiler tagged (and things change daily in the house so who knows what they say now will actually stick).

Christmas just came back. She said she had ten broken bones and they had to put donor bone in.

She really should leave.

Lots of production fuckery so far. Not really liking that. Was not a fan of your boy last season and he is kind of ruining this one for me. This injury is only helping Christmas' game. She was perceived as a physical threat and was a target. Now she is not. If you can't be medically cleared to compete GTFO. Also I don't get why she told Jessica that she was pissed that she didn't come out when she returned from the checkup after the injury. Jess was literally the first person she interacted with but don't interrupt her oh hell no. Josh and Ramses are far too annoying to be on TV.

Paul is telling everyone he can't win because he's a vet. As if he didn't lose to a vet last year.

Surely he knows he's spewing BS. Just trying to get the others to see him as less of a threat. And with this house, it will probably work.

Christmas really needs to be pulled from the game. Her surgery was major and she can just get a free spot next year if she wants it. Make the battle back a double or something.

The injury was far, far worse than expected.
