The stupid twist, which the big Po's Posse (gag) alliance figured out, now is set up with members of that alliance paired up with non members and with Jasmine who hates (her words) Taylor being paired with Turner.. that allowed her to get to Turner and spread her lies and poison against Taylor and then that caused several peoplen who had started to mellow on Taylor to shift right back into the "whole house against Taylor" mode. Maybe CBS really wants Julie to go and this is why they are twisting and twisting to killn their own show? Exactly why they should have done a random, spin the wheel type pick. Production knows what is going on and how HG's would pick if given the choice. Hey BIG BROTHER you are in charge. Either you pick or do a random spin.

Agree, Missy. This is a “schoolyard pick” setup that allows the HG to hack the twist. The inmates are running the asylum.

I think the problem with BBUS is that they are doing TOO MUCH. If they would just let the game play out, with the normal comps, it would be easier on production staff, and makes a better, more organic show. It's like they can't help themselves, they are addicted to 'tinkering' with the formula. One of the things I really enjoyed about BBCAN, is that they didn't interfere with the game itself. They had a hidden clue in the house for a secret veto. They have Wendy's. Stuff that can affect the game, but doesn't CHANGE the game. The people playing the game need to know the rules, as well as the viewers. When they change it up without thinking it through, just for the sake of 'tinkering', they wreck the season. It keeps happening. I wish there was something that could be done about it.

Agree Rosem. Good players should be able to rise to the top. And you can see that with Michael. He is weathering this storm of Big Brother really, really well.

So, from reading these posts, what I get out of it is that BB did not want to have (Or the appearance of having) another cook out happening. So they came up with this bestie twist, which the hgs in power figured out to manipulate the twist and have their own "cook out". Great going, BB.

Yes, Grooch, that about sums it up. Feeds are back. Michael and Brittany are nominated, as expected. I now expect anyone but Taylor and Nicole to be chosen for veto so that the 3 week goal of getting Taylor out will be achieved. Whew! So much energy and focus on one person for 3 whole weeks!

I just heard Joseph say to Nicole that TAYLOR GOT POOCH OUT. They voted him out 12-0. Taylor did not have a vote. Someone explain this to me.

This whole season is just so different than BB Can. It’s remarkable to watch.

Jimmer, after experiencing BBCAN for the first time, I am finding it jarring to watch these live feeds. I have watched USBB live feeds for every summer since the beginning. Seeing the Canadian version revealed that the game doesn't have to be played with such venom and vitriol. I guess I kinda got used to BB being like this. It is a real eye opener.

I wish I could have gotten into Canada, but the live feed cuts, Wendy's commercials and neon light house made it hard for me..

Disappointed that my last hold out, Joeseph, is trash talking about it Taylor to Nicole, and laughing about it..ugh

Christiii, I used the BBviewer, so no ads. I didn’t mind the feed cuts, because when they WERE on, they were GOOD!

Ameerah telling Brittany and Michael, and now Indy, that 'the whole house is aligned' and 'just like the first week' - as if this is something to be proud of. Does she think that this is good gameplay? Or that the viewers enjoy the whole house 'being aligned'? Isn't she a 'superfan'? (No) Sadly, Brittany doesn't know that after the whole house aligns against Taylor, the whole house will align against her.

If the plan works, and I'm sure it will, Nicole and Taylor will be the final nominees. I would like Michael to then let people know that Nicole used to be a cop, and remind them of Derrick the cop, winner of S16, a season that I know they are familiar with. If told in the right way, it could spook them into getting her out.

I think Nicole is playing a great game and I want her to go to the end. Would be nice to see a woman win who didn’t hang all over a man to win.

I think it is unlikely that Nicole would hang all over a man.

I didn’t realize Michael knew about Nicole being a cop, I thought only Daniel knew.

Well Caycee (think that was her name) won without hanging all over a man, so we did have that happen at least once.

Yep and kaycee was a great player. But there are people who say that she only won because the jury was bitter toward Tyler.

Brittany really went through ALL of her thoughts/fears/emotions/frustrations/hopes… she cried, then she calmed herself down. She meditated, and even smiled toward the end of it. Perhaps Paloma could’ve benefited from doing this early on… it was sad and sweet to watch her process it all!

Brittany may be sweet but she is playing the rat game and blowing up the games of her allies.. I really don't want her pairing with Michael to hurt him. I like him. Brittany is certainly right on about Alyssa and Jasmine!! Diva and Picky to the max I like Nicole but she can be controlling. I suspect she was used to being in control as a cop. I wonder how they will pick to play for veto? I really hate this twist.
