Jbw, good twists, but too many of them all at once. One reward to tempt Rachel, one punishment for the house. And since it will be the second one, it will probably be the other way around.

If the F2 is J/R and R does all the heavy work (by winning HOHs and POVs to save them) in getting them to the end while Jordan wins nothing or next to nothing and Jordan ends up winning the $500K. I will NEVER watch another season of Big Brother again.

I don't know. AG is getting plenty of heat over last week's Pandora's Box twist. It looked like it was sent up to save a fan favorite [Jordan] from going to the jury house right on the heels of two other fan favs (Dani & Jeff). Plenty of old houseguests like Matt BB12, James Rhine, Evel Dick, etc. have all sounded off that it wasn't kosher what AG did and looked like a setup to save the ratings from dropping if Jordan went to the jury. Giving the 'other side' a similar chance, not a guarantee but a chance, lessens plenty of the criticism and charge that AG is attempting to determine the winner. It would also be deemed as fair.

AG could care less about the heat she takes from anyone. The BB ratings last week were amazing. The three shows were in the top 5. James, Dick, Matt, really know nothing. How you set it up is beyond me. AG is not in the backyard when the competitions are going. How could she possibly have known Rachel would win that last VETO, or this HOH? I am so tired of the conspiracy theories.

Jeff still wants a career in showbiz. Why else would he want to consider a possible move to California but has ruled out any move to North Carolina? Plenty of real estate jobs in North Carolina. Not many of acting gigs there though. Jordan spoke about this earlier this season in the BB house saying Jeff didn't want to leave Chicago for North Carolina due to his friends and work possibilities but he would consider a move with her to Cali if one of them won the $500K this season. Jeff spoke about this too this season. He'd love to follow in the footsteps of Colby Donaldson and host a reality show on cable TV.

He'd also be furious that Jordan gave the $500K to Rachel & Brendon instead of for Jeff and Jordan's future use.

Hardly a conspiracy. The last veto and this HOH were very physical competitions. Both favored Rachel. In fact the moment I saw tonight's HOH contest I said there is only two people who could possible win this, Porsche and Rachel, and Porsche was not playing.

The producers know what skills each HGs is best at. It isn't difficult at all for producers to move comps around like pieces on chess board to use them to work best for who they'd like to stay in the house.

For Jordan to "take" Rachel to F2, she'd have to win that F3 competition and select Rachel to go with her. I think there's enough Rachel dislike that just winning that final competition will give the jury reason to vote for Jordan.

OTOH, I think Jordan would happily take the 50K (and the possibility of more) should Rachel sweep the remaining comps and take her to F2. Jeff is pretty much guaranteed to win fan fav, so that's another 25K for them. Not a bad take for 3 months of work.

Tired of the conspiracy theories as well. What if Porsche had not opened the box?

Hope my girl (and I am not floating she has been my girl since day one of her first season) does not open the box.

What if Porsche didn't open the box ... When has one HG NOT opened Pandora's box? The producers know it will be opened. It like putting a cookie jar in front of a kid and telling them not to eat any of them.

Do you really think Jeff will win fan fav? He is not a very nice guy and it shows. You can't hide a borish attitude and a sore loser?

Now Jordan is a different story. She is a sweet girl and Rachel is dynamic. Pretty much up in the air on who is the fav. If you read these boards the favs change every week LOL

Jbw, AG can take the heat, she has taken it for years.

At final six to make them duos again when that is how this season started, seemed preplanned to me. Others can cry foul, but I believe most of what happens in any season is planned before the season even starts.

There is no way to continue the duos theme with five people in the house.

Now PB could be a choice between something good for HOH IF you put your best ally on the block......but the HOH has to choose if they want to open PB before they learn if they get the bad or the good.

They can temp HOH and tank their best allie. Or. They can curse HOH and gift the house. We wait, we watch.

The trouble with Pandora's Box is they never know whether it will benefit them or hurt them as HOH. They hope it will benefit them in the game without screwing up their strategy. Problem is, BB decides whether they want it to help or hurt them. IDK, poor Rachel has huge dilemma coming up.

Of all reality shows BB is the most free flowing fly-by-the-seat-of-pants-show by the production. They often have to adjust because of things that happen with HGs. I remember one season the HG were playing I believe an endurance contest, and BB would bring offers to them. All of the offers were printed and laminated. All of the sudden one offer came out that was not laminated. The HGs immediately commented on that, and of course BB cut the feed.

Well the conspiracy theorists were not correct about Dani...

Personally I wish this board would get back to reporting what is happening in the house and the conversations and less about our own opinions.

Ummm real estate career in Chicago or LA/ Vs North Carolina......Where is the bigger commission?

And with the real estate market being in the tank for the last few years, at least Jeff found a way to make money while the economy was down.

Just sayin.

You misunderstand. No one is saying it's 'fixed' like pro wrestling. The outcome is not predetermined. They all say "anyone can win any contest at any time, but..."

AG knows what makes great TV and drives ratings and she's willing to 'tilt' things a certain way to TRY to send things in a different direction. Doesn't always work, but she tries. They've all SEEN it in their seasons. They know what went on in their diary room sessions that we NEVER get to see. And I'm more than willing to BELIEVE people who played the game and experienced what goes on behind closed doors with AG. Especially when you consider that many of them are still under contract to CBS and by iritating AG, they might never be asked back to play BB again or any other CBS reality show.

Dick knows AG quite well as they have had many dinners together outside of the show. There's a reason why Big Brother is classified a 'reality show' instead of a 'game show'. Game shows have more stringent rules and government laws (due to the quiz shows fixing in the '50s) about fairness that reality shows don't have to follow. As Dick said on Sunday night in his internet show, "AG & CBS doesn't care about fairness in competitions. They care about ratings and ad rates they can charge their advertisers."

All of them say they hate the 'twists' as it leaves the game more susceptible to manipulation by the producers that just letting the houseguest play the game. I was, quite frankly, surprised to hear Dick say this since, IMO. he'd have never won if there wasn't the America's Player twist in BB8.

In reality, BB can't be "fixed". I do believe that some of the comps favor certain houseguests but there's no guarantee who will win. If it was fixed Janelle would have won.
