I may be wrong, but it seems to me that each week we have heard one of the HG's set for eviction and then afterward, the one evicted, blast individuals when they are asked to plead their case or are interviewed by Julie. And then there seems to be an awful lot of negative tapes of the HG's farewell's that follow suit. Having watched every summer season of BB, I don't recall so much rancor being made public like this. Maybe one or two per season, but this year it seems to be happening every week. Is the atmosphere in this year's house more toxic than usual?

The exits have been more inflammatory but overall I don't find this house particularily more toxic or even on par with some previous seasons. They're actually pretty tame to be honest. That's just my opinion though. :-)

If you are right about this, What, then the producers have succeeded in their HS theme. Just as brutal and juvenile as HS. I do think AG and Co. as well as the houseguests, just want to outdo the previous seasons to be even MORE outrageous, so it gets more extreme every season. I guess it gets good ratings.

IMO it's not as toxic as some other seasons.

BB10 was particularly toxic wherever Jerry interjected his pre-planned tirades and throughout the alliances of April, Michele, Jesse, and Jerry. Remember the awful nights when they just played pool and spun vulgarities?? .......and I believe the worst was ED, et al, on BB8!!!

TO me the most toxic was the Maggie, Cappy, Ivette and Beau alliance. They were horrible, camped up in the HOH room with Queen Maggie. bleech

I think the exit speeches have just been more honest. I was always annoyed in previous seasons when the person just smile and talked about how they loved everyone to look good for the cameras. You know many of them are just seething with anger -- I'd like to see them be honest about how mad they are about being voted out even if they are a bit over the top and rude about it.

The exit speeches tend to get much kinder when they're to members of the jury. At this point they can be as nasty as possible without losing a vote.

For me, the toxicity of Maggie's group will never be topped. As for the speeches, they all talked this weekend about Chima having set the bar and they all now need to top it. I wasn't surprised at Casey's exit speech but I was extremely surprised at the goodbye speeches by Ronnie and Nat especially. Then again, why am I surprised? I have no doubt that those two behave exactly the same outside the house as they are inside.

i like honesty as a person leaves. Nothing makes me more frustrated than all the Fakey fake huggie crap that some HGs do. If a HG truly cared about the game and their buddies/ alliance, it would be best to rattle the other team Just Before the next HOH comp. yes this last HOH was endurance, but if it had been Q&A it is very likely nat would have performed poorly due to her adrenaline rush.
