I like James because he got a second chance and he didn't waste it, he has gotten revenage on all who hung him last week. He could have played it safe and not put up Matt, but that would have been dumb, if you have a chance to take out the top dog you take him out.

Hooray for the James fan thread! If Natalie won HoH James would have been on the block without a doubt. And I'm sure Matt would have been the driving force behind it. Great move by James, IMO.

Bubba, I agree completely. It would have been a waste to evict anyone other than a major player in this game. James has the cajones no one else does, imo!! <55>

I James!! Thanks so much Mama for starting this thread!!! I have been lurking the BB threads all season and <100> to express my "James love", I have decided to come out of hiding!! I think I made only one comment all season, in the "Who do you like/dislike?" thread. I had watched the first episode and wanted to state that I was campaigning James to win this season. He became my favorite RIGHT AWAY!!! <100> LOL, Carmenv!! <100> He is a great player. He takes charge of his own fate in the BB house and I love that. Now that this thread has convinced me to stop lurking , I want to comment on the last HOH competition. I have not read any other posts here at TVCH that have mentioned this, but did anyone compare James to Kaysar in his return to the BB house?? When James refused to make a deal with Nat, I was like "OMG, this is exactly what I wanted Kaysar to do on BB6!!". I was so mad that Kaysar gave up the HOH competition because he believed Jenn would keep him safe. I thought it was such an idiotic move!! He should have just kept his own fate in his OWN HANDS!!! He allowed himself to be suckered and then he was promptly voted out once again!! James OTOH was absolutely awesome!!! He had a "take no prisoners" attitude and he was determined that the only person he would count on was himself. Nat was working the sympathy angle with James just as much as Jenn was to Kaysar, but James was wonderful. He did not give in and I was so proud of him. He definitely deserved HOH. I just had to mention that James' situation really mirrored Kaysar's only he did it the right way!!! GO JAMES!!! {{{{James fans}}}}

Semi James fan here. I loved how he helped take care of Amanda. And then he brought the bucket to Nat after the HOH comp. He truley has compassion for others. Beyond that, I have resevations.

While I don't know if I want James to win (I haven't decided who I want, actually), I think he's playing smart and doing what he needs to do to stay in the house. If Matt walks out the door tonight, that is a major step towards his staying in the house. (And since I cannot stand Matt, I'll like James even more if he's instrumental in achieving Matt's exit!) I love the fact that he got evicted, yet came back in the house, won HOH and POV, and is taking no prisoners. When HGs evict weaker people because they don't like them always bugs me. Sure it's an emotional and social "game." But you need to get rid of those who might try to get rid of you. Survival of the fittest. Or smartest. Or quickest. Or something!

I love how James is playing with the hgs..he cracks me up. He is well aware of how Sheila is playing this game and he's doing a great job of keeping her off task. I love that he told them he was going to play as honestly as the rest have and then when he does they want to call foul because they just heard "want to play honestly."

absolutly Costa...If they would spend more time realllllly listening instead of shooting their mouths off maybe they would far better. Listening might even help them with challenges (what a concept). He has every right to go after those who went after him. He is not going to waste this HOH and it's about time we get to see some game play instead of huggy, kissy, backstabbing...

I totally love it when a HG is out for revenge. James had only one vote to keep him in when he originally walked out the door. The HGs are just upset cause of the twist... personally, I'm not sure if I'd have gone for the "devil you know or the devil you don't" but the HGs also voted him back in. Hehehe... Show no mercy, James!

They should have furthered the twist by giving immunity to those who did not vote James back in!! Can you imagine! They would be so freakin' ticked off. Plus James would still have to nom 2 of his "buddies" who actually did vote him back. Matt is the only one right now who can kick himself for voting James back in...

Oh, that is right Bonbon! Even better then!! Let James be forced to choose between the ones that did vote him back! I would laugh and laugh and laugh at that predicament!!!

It was an incredibly dumb play on Natalie's part to vote James back in. Possibly one of the top ten dumbest moves in BB history. And James is doing his best to take advantage of that fact (as he should!).

James has definitely used the HOH position the smartest so far this season.

Why would they have done that? That makes absolutely no sense. But there were plenty of people to put up...Adam and Natalie for a start, and Sharon is expendable, or Josh.

I think James switched out Sheila as she'd be grateful, and put in Matt as he lied about being the third vote to chose the mystery box instead of James. Quick question: James and Chelsia are pretending to not be so close - do Josh and Sharon know there was no bust up or do they also think James and Chelsia have been fighting?

James was nearly perfect as HOH. He nominated two people who had a hand in evicting him, and who voted against his return. He then won POV and nominated the third person who didn't vote for him to come back, who also gloated when James was put up for eviction. By taking Sheila off, he played on her concept of people not having her back, and maybe at least wouldn't be nominated by her should she somehow win HOH. The only imperfect part of his HOH was that he thought Adam was the third vote and was >this< close to nominating him instead of Matt. Other than perhaps becoming too close to Chelsia and tossing pickle juice on Nat, James has probably been the most clear headed and forward thinking player in the game this season.
