Yes, any scenario with poor wittle janie leaving would be the WRONG scenario.....awwwww! sad. Given the entire competition was different is not fair. what was the point of the hauntings then...?..it was all about the stupid upcoming HOH. But lets just all thank the heavens above that janelle is OK now.....PUKE!

I wish Dani and James would be taken down a notch or two, but Janelle, as much as I like her, is CLUELESS, and she's not going to go after James.

@Redstar Good idea. I sent CBS my comments. I told them they did a great job and I would continue to be a loyal viewer of their programs. Great job CBS. Keep it up.

I just came on line and found out they did a redo. WOW am I surprised. Last night I wrote to CBS to complain. Wonder how many complaints they got. Who would have thunk it, they did the right thing.

I won't be complaining to CBS. I will just quit watching the show & I have already cancelled my live feeds.

How can you say Erika has any more right to HOH than any other HG? If they had gone back and redone the comp using the same equipment, I could possibly buy the idea that those who had answered incorrectly could not play if it could be determinded that their equipment was in correct working order. However, we have no way of knowing if Erika would have won if Howie had not been eliminated. He has studied these answers and was answering quickly on every one. He might just as easily have won as Erika. And if he had won, it would be pretty much the same as Jani winning. However, they could not use the same equipment because they could not trust it, so they had to come up with an entire new comp. And in that case, it is only fair that all the people compete.

I am shocked CBS finally re-did a malfunction. I am proud of them!

BB voided the first HOH comp due to tech problems, thus it never happened. Everyone started the new comp on equal ground. It was fair to everyone. And the questions for the comp were still from the seance so i don't understand what someone was complaining about that for. i think the second comp was harder so it did not favor any one person.

Yeah, everyone assumes it was ONLY Howie's buzzer that malfunctioned. It is quite possible that the delay was related to testing-- and when they re-tested after the show, they possibly discovered scenarios that ANY or ALL of the buzzers malfunctioned. Then they had to get Julie back in, write questions for a new HoH competition, get the camera crews ready for a compeition taping, etc. They probably would've re-used the buzzers if they believed they were working reliably. They didn't. I don't quite see what people are so upset about, they are finally doing what we've always asked-- redo a competition that got botched. They rarely even do that much, so we should congratulate CBS. Keep in mind, BB is a very "just in time" sort of game. Things are barely done before they're used on the show. It's quite possible the buzzers were rigged up, seemed to work, but never tested for every possible situation. Unfortunately, they failed on live TV, so instead of having any appearance of possible issues, they scrapped them entirely and used a good non-technical HoH competition to be sure it was fair to everyone, not just Howie.

I don't care if it did any good or not. It made me feel better. BTW, I am not anti-Janelle. I like her about the same as I like Erika, which puts her somewhere in the middle of my preferences. The only person I truly dislike is Howie.
