In the beginning, I thought he was just too good to be real and that he was just pretending so the other HG's would like him and not vote him off.
But as the weeks have gone by, I have come to believe that he really is as good as he seems.
But wouldn't it be funny if he wins it all and then starts telling them that it was all fake, he is a male stripper, drug pusher, gay prostitute!
LOL
Well, I must be in a strange mood!
I love Jason, if my daughter was not already married, I would love to have him for my son-in-law!

Well for someone who isn't playing the game Jason sure had Dani spellbound on the show last night. He was telling her what to say to Marc, and she was saying "Okay I'll take care of it." He is getting Dani to do a lot of his bidding and because she is so verbal he's just sitting back. I love the way he's playing and think it is funny when people say he is riding Dani's coat tails.

I agree Earthmother, Jason is playing the game, he is just playing more quietly than the others.
I see him as a equal partner with Dani at this point.

Jason is playing the game with insider savvy. He's playing hard but you never see him doing it. He is very controlled and patient. Unlike Danielle, he trusts his alliance and isn't always poking it with a stick to see it is alive. He is very good at not really declaring his thoughts and strategy, except in secret.. His diary room entries are always kind and uplifting, saying nothing to later offend anyone, without coming off completely phony.

If Danielle had actually FOLLOWED Jason's advice and not talked about her vote to anyone, Roddy would be gone tonight, without question.

So far, he's doing everything right. Not calling attention to himself in any way but being likable. I think he has a pretty clear picture of what is actually happening in the house unlike some of the players.

Jason is good looking, smart, attentive, fun loving, kind and rarely the center of attention. Those are his strengths and also his weaknesses; who's going to want to be next to HIM in the end!?!

Jason is a gentleman in every sense of the word and that is unusual at his age. Sure he will lie and deceive in the game when he has to. Everyone does. That's the game. It's the same thing you do in poker or old maid. I have no problem with that. It's the other stuff that disgust me. The personal attacks, the disgusting behavior, the demeaning behavior to the other houseguests when it is not a part of the game. Jason does not do that and for that I respect him.

With a house full of teenage girls, age 15 to 20, it appears that Jason is about as interesting to them as paint drying. I took a quick poll just to see if I'm with it or getting senile... Here are what these five young ladies think about the houseguests.

Roddy: bald, boring and a blow hard

Marcellas: PMS Queen

Gerry: Sleep inducing.

Jason: I hate to say this, but they think he is a closet gay, or else a few bricks shy a load. This surprised me, as I thought the girls would love Jason.

Amy - Sorority Snob

Lisa - Crack Head

Chiara - Famous for having her number on the walls of men's bathrooms. Easily forgotten.

Danielle - Old, Tired and not much more.

None of them remembered Eric or Tonya

If you don't like Jason, you are probably a mean, nasty, jealous, unhappy, frustrated hater of babies and puppies that gets lots of enjoyment from plane crashes and natural disasters. (This is a bit overdone but I am sure you get the idea).

For those of you who insist Jason isn't hiding
under Dani's skirts, just one further word:
OPPOSITE

I don't happen to like Jason very much. I think he is boring and to goody goody. He gives me the creeps because he just sits and watches everyone else. However he is playing the game in the "silent but deadly" mode and I have to give him credit for his skill. I think he could take it all the way to the end.

The thing I don't like about Jason is that he is just a puppet for Danielle. I don't like people on "Reality shows" that just follow a group or a specific person and can't think for themselves, and need to check with another person to see what they should do and what that person wants them to do.

What they showed on tonight's episode was very telling. Jason can't do anything without Danielle. "Jason to the Diary room". So Jason goes running to find Danielle to make sure he still knows what she wants him to do. And then when she says "opposite", he worries about what does opposite mean, trying to figure out what Danielle wanted him to do. I just don't think someone who doesn't call their own shots should win.

It's the same reason why I wanted Tonya gone early in the show. As soon as she said "I go with the group, I vote how the group wants me to vote" at that moment I wanted her gone.

In my opinion, Jason is the same way, only it's not the "group", it's Danielle.

the only thing i dont like about jason is the way he is letting dani control him so that she can get herself to the finals..she will eventually turn on him..and he doesnt seem to understand that..i just ticks me off how dani is controlling this game.

Jason seems to be a great guy, in fact I would say he is a grandmother's dream. As a player on big brother I do not care for him. I have never been a fan of the under the radar player in any of these shows. I will say though that my opinions of him as a player are all set up to change this week. I really hope he comes out of his shell and does that.

To answer the question again--I was moderated before--yes, there is someone who does not like Ja-sin and it is ME ME ME!

I totally agree, Sheila.

I find I'm always against the person or group who controls the power. It's just like last year. Originally I wanted "Chilltown" to be destroyed. Early on I was hoping for Nicole and Hardy to win the HOH competitions because they would go after CT. But then when Nicole and Hardy had the power and were arrogant about it, I wanted them to fail.

It's the same thing this year. Originally, I was against the Group of 6, and I was hoping for Danielle and Jason, but now that Danielle has become so arrogant and Jason is just her puppet, now I want them to fail.

Who wins at the end if it is Danielle and Jason standing? Puppet my butt.

I don't know that Jason is Danielle's puppet. His info on the cbs website says his strategy would be to align with two key people in the game. I think he's just sticking with his strategy. He's thought a lot about this, and is a self-professed huge BB fan...he came in with this strategy, he is sure it will work, and so far it has..he's safe, and HOH this week.

The only thing I can't figure out is which is the other key person he's aligned himself with? Roddy? This week should tell the tale...

woodpecker..as long as dani is in the house jason wont make it to the finals dani will see to that because she knows she wouldnt stand a chance against him..she will turn on him because she is all about the money..she could care less about jason..Cc1976..thats exactly how i felt about last years show.

I like Jason, but I wish he would align with someone other than Danielle. He is like a lamb being led to the slaughter. I laugh at the idea that he is the one controlling Danielle. As someone mentioned a few messages up on this thread, it all boils down to one word: opposite.

Sheila. Jason will not have to worry about being booted before Danielle. If she continues to fail in competitions, she will be eliminated by the others who know what she is doing. He is playing this game as it should be played, just wait and see.

Ok, don't take this the wrong way, but what are we coming to when you hate someone because they are good and nice and respectful and have morals and ethics that they actually live by without being pushy and rude and in your face? To say you hate them for this, or that the only other explanation is "they must be gay" is messed up, IMHO...

Song, I certainly respect your opinion, but I live in the anti-Bill Bennett universe--a place where morals and ethics have fallen by the wayside and given way to debauchery, bachanallia, and artifice. That place is called LA and it makes us as happy, I am certain, as morals and ethics make others.

Well I'm impressed at how much you guys like Jason. And I'm doubly impressed at the venom directed at me for not liking Jason in the house.

"If you don't like Jason, you are probably a mean, nasty, jealous, unhappy, frustrated hater of babies and puppies that gets lots of enjoyment from plane crashes and natural disasters. (This is a bit overdone but I am sure you get the idea)." Woodpecker said it best. Lol! I'm spawn of Satan because I don't like Jason?

For the record, Jason would probably be a decent friend. That doesn't make him an entertaining game show contestant.

I don't need HGs to be nasty evil people, just to do SOMETHING worth watching. If Jason maybe had something interesting to say, some fascinating take on some subject, or ANYTHING other than just sitting there looking like a mannequin, he may be worthy of being in that house.

Now that he is HOH maybe he'll finally do something noteworthy. I certainly hope he does, as Monica did last season (She was a non-entity like him until late in the game). If he wins this game it'll just be sad. Not because he doesn't deserve to win, but because I had to have him on my TV screen for so long, when somebody worth watching could have been there.

I disagree. I think Jason's interesting. He's funny, he's reasonably intelligent, he's playing the game. He may be under the radar a bit, but it's not because he doesn't do anything. It's because his manuevering is pretty subtle. Unlike Marcellas and Amy, Jason and Danielle don't spend a lot of time discussing their plans. I don't think Jason's much like Monica because I feel that Monica initally did nothing in hopes of getting by. Jason has formed alliances, voted strategically, etc.

And I don't think "it'll be sad" if Jason wins the game. I think Gentoo would be sad. I personally would be happy. :)

One of my problems this season is that there's relatively few people that I actually *like*. In order to be entertained, I need people that I can root for. Jason is that sort of person. Would I be bored by a house full of Jasons? Yes, absolutely. But I'd also be bored by a house full of villain types, too. I need a little variety.

Apparently, Amy and Marcellas can be included in this convo. They are on the feeds right now badmouthing him because they think they'll be up for nomination. Is anyone good enough for these two to share air with?

If you don't like him, it's all good. It means less competitions for me. Just pass him on to me. I'll be very happy to have him all to myself. :Q LOL! :D

As for Amy and Marcellas, they are queen and king of drama. If you let drama affect you and take them seriously, then they'll act it out more. Just laugh with or at them. Don't take them seriously.
