Everytime Rachel is talking they take her bad comments blow them up and rerun them and never ever anything nice she says, I guess it is the popular thing to do. The Cassie/Rachel talk was so bogus, I was yelling at the tv.

Brenchal is cast as the evil twins so no surprises there and lord knows they provide plenty of footage. And they're not gonna compromise the golden couple's rep to tv viewers anytime soon. That's their "reality" tv in a nutshell. Again. As soon as JJ's back is against the wall, they'll provide plenty of footage too... let's see how much is aired. Any bets? lol

Sunday show portrayed Jeff and Jordan as being in terrible danger. Truth is both couples are on to Dani and Jeff/Jordan aren't going anywhere this week. I guess more people will tune in if America's sweethearts are in jeopardy?

Zactly, Hwest. And we all know there's zero danger of Brenchal (or anyone so far) making a smart move. I cannot get over the sheer stupidity of the newbies from day one. They had this game in the bag and blew it in chunks.

ITA, Chippy. I think Shelly is finally realizing the repercussion of her vote the first week.

I think Shelly and Kalia both thought that they could bump Dani out of the alliance and hide behind the couples until everyone was out but the 5 of them when the couple would suddenly turn on each other.

I guess that's a great plan if you're playing for 5th place.

Here's what they KNOW for CERTAIN:

1. There are two power couples left in that house.
2. There is no way in hell either pair will turn against each other.
3. Ditto that they won't take each other to final 2.
4. Jeff and Jordan (especially her) are the all time fan favorites and a shoe-in for America's Choice not to mention a ratings winner for CBS.

So what do they do? Give up their numbers and team up with noone in particular and don't even try to win comps.

Oh, and waste at least 2 chances to take out their biggest rivals.

Brilliant.

When Daniele was HOH they didn't show what a chatterbox Kalia was.

As many have pointed out, they didn't show Shelley persuading Kalia to nominate POrsche.

Miz, I'm hoping they saved it for tonight so Julie can chat about it!

I agree they should have shown the real reasons Kalia changed her mind about voting out Rachel, but I wonder if they don't have too much time to tell the whole story. They would have shown why Shelly wanted Porsche on the block and voted out,they would have shown Shelley talking to Kalia and explain to her the whole business with the evicted coming back and that Rachel could come back with a vengeance and bye bye Kalia and Daniele. So, the whole Shelly's part of the story was omitted and all credit for thinking was given to Kalia. However, it all seemed to me pretty dumb thinking the way they edited, without that Shelly's part, it seemed a bit dumb to me, especially replacing Lawon, one of their own, huh?
Anyway, maybe they'll show Shelly's part tonight and it would make more sense if Rachel is indeed saved.

I think they missed an opportunity - they could have done a really fun, quick edit of Shelly and everyone running all over the house with snippets of all the conversations that happened, put in the part where Lawon says he'll volunteer, and then finish with Shelly's "my work is done here." Cut to commercial, straight to the veto ceremony.

Exactly Lillian,
put it that way it seems to me they would have had plenty of time for showing Shelly's work and the excitement that that created for internet viewers...

Lillian, yes, they should have done that, but they were so concerned with what the TV viewer would think when Adam showed up beardless.

They spent time on that, rather than the actual workings of the game.

Production trumps game. Every time.

It was particularly annoying because I had built it all up for my husband, who only watches the show and doesn't like to be spoiled. I had told him that there was a ton going on in the house, and "wait till you see it all play out on Wednesday" and then nothing!

the real reason K was rethinking voting out Rachel was Rachel herself.

IF anyone was watching feeds, K was waffling right after Rachel talked to her privately the FIRST time as HOH. Shelley talk was a day or two later.

Nope, we didn't see Shelly's work on tonight's show. I am baffled why they couldn't. It is certainly Shelly who made it all happen and yet she was totally avoided. If not for Shelly Lawon could still be there.

ITA Spunky, it's baffling. And maddening. No idea why they are completely negating Shelly's incredible exploits this past week, unless TPTB really do not want the fans out in TV land to know she's THAT GOOD. I am starting to agree that maybe TPTB really do want a VET to win. (Although I am okay if Jordan becomes their first Million Dollar Baby.)

Shelly's a newbie so why let the audience see that she is a strong player if the producers don't want a newbie to win?
