Did anyone else notice that they changed the picture board during the HOH comp?
They're still paired but not next to each other anymore. One is above the other.

I didn't notice the photo placement, but I surely can say i'd love it if they allow some of the evicted HGs to come back in. I think this game is suited better when people are playing as individuals anyway. You can get more gameplay that way. With this coupling thing, the game is just too stilted. As it has been mentioned before, if one of the teammates are cool...then its the partner that you can't stand. So in all fairness like every other BB, the HGs should be allowed to compete for the 500K as individuals.

Jooleechenlvr, great memory regarding season 3(one of my favorite seasons, just a weak winner....lol)!!!! Anyway, I still enjoyed that season when they allowed the first 5 HGs the chance to return. Its possible Josh probably didn't have a chance to come back because he was in the house longer than the others. Of course, I could be wrong, but during the time I thought it was pretty fair. If they do split these HGs up this season, maybe the evicted won't have the chance to come back, but choose who comes back. I don't know how its going to be play out, but i'm hoping for it to be an interesting twist, because as i've said above this couples twist has taken away from the BB game.

To split the couples would be an admission by BB that the couple twist did not work (duh?), but the more I watch of this twist the more I like it even tough it makes it way too predictble.

However, I don't think it's fair to change the game by splitting the couples and play as individuals and get single evictions as previous seasons, I mean it's not fair to the evicted couples, they lost because one of the soulmate ruined the game for the other (at least Alex is saying so and Parker is saying so), all players should be getting the same chance at the game.

So, I hope they don't split the couples and I hope they don't swap them, to swap them would still be unfair to the evicted couples... but then again BB is the boss and could do what he pleases.

Let's just pray that the new chapter does not contain Allison. I can not get over all of this lying.

I think too that the couples that got evicted did so mainly because of one half of the couple. That is why I have no problem with allowing one half of the evicted couples back. I think BB always meant to switch it to individual play anyhow because there simply were not enough couples to get through the season. There could only be about 3 more weeks if they didn't change something up, so I think this was part of the plan all along.

I rewatched the premiere, and the announcer clearly mentions there will be only one HG left standing to win the 500k. So I believe that its always been planned for it to be broken up into individuals to have one standing in the end. If they kept this couples twist, the game would not last all the way til April. So having the evicted HGs in sequester helps them reinter the game with no real clue about whats been going on in the house.

If they do have HGs come back....I think having them compete in a competition would be the best way to handle it.

You know, they could still play couples all the way to the end and stay have only one big winner, IF they played down to only one couple left, the vote would be which one gets the big $.

Hmmmmm, interesting idea....I hadn't thought of it that way. I think i'm just hoping whatever this big "surprise" Julie mentions means these teams are split up and they all play as individuals. It just makes the game more interesting when people are playing for themselves. As we see with all the couples that have been eliminated, its been one of the people who was disliked more than the other.

How about if they decided to rematch people and the evicted couple decides who goes with who.

I had the thought that maybe when the hgs are evicted they go to a 2nd BB house where the real game begins. You have to be evicted from the 1st house to go to the 2nd where you will actually be playing for the $500,000. That would be a big suprise for the evicted couples...

Bring back all the evicted houseguests. Everyone plays as individuals. Anyone who has previously been evicted, except for Sharon, will not be able to compete in HOH and POV contests, but can vote.

So essentially those who got kicked out will be at an extreme disadvantage but could still impact the game in a major way.

I was watching the live feeds a week ago, and several times, I heard one of them say "when we go to singles." I think that has to be part of the deal.

I would love to see them bring back one member of each evicted team (by competition, not by popular vote) and then split up the remaining couples into singles. It would throw a monkeywrench into all the longterm plans. It would be so interesting to see who was still loyal to their former soulmate (my guess is James & Chelsea would be the only ones still supporting each other.) Mattie would drop Nat like a hot potato and align with his boys, etc. It would certainly make things interesting...

Who do you think would be the first target if they were all singles?

If they break up into singles, I think the first target would be Josh. I dont think anyone likes him that much and maybe are a little afraid of him, except for Sharon, and they know he is a strong competitor.

I guess I have missed all of this. Where is it posted that Parker has spoken to friends or that Alex and Parker are saying this? Thanks!

What if there is something along the line of an individual immunity?
Maybe the couple leaving gets to pick someone to save.

When the couples split the girls and Josh are SOL. The boys(minus Josh) have a pretty tight group and have been sitting back watching the girls stir the pot . Josh has not really been included in the boys club(like he cares) and the girls have been fighting among themselves .Josh and the girls will be targeted first unless they are able to pull an alliance together. Especially if former guests return ,it will then become poor shafted boys vs. the women that got them booted.

I believe a "ghost" tribe of evicted houseguests will compete to go back into the house (like Survivor and Pirate Master) this will tie into the "death do us part" and then the couples will be split

What date is this show supposed to end? Seems like they have to split the couples or the show will be over very soon

They're going to bring in a Gauntlet, like on Real World/Road Rules...wouldn't you love to see them having to battle each other head to head for HOH?

There were reports of BB selling tickets to the finale show on April 28(?ish) so the show is almost certainly going to run the full three months with some twist coming up soon.
