They at least will not be so nasty to Brit until after the veto. God I hope she wins.

I thuoght they would ask questions about what julie was wearing on certain eviction nights. Not some stupid video. It was clearly all guessing. I'd rather see something that requires some skill!

I can't believe the backyard was shut down for days just to set up three booths. Why couldn't we have a before and after comp or straight up days? I hope that is what we get in F4 veto.

Hey, Jimmer, while I understand that, the thing is we start out idealizing these cast members and then when they turn out to be human, they fall from grace.
I try not to do either, idealize them, or be terribly disappointed when they turn out to be human, just like us.

I thought Alyssa's exit was gracious as well as her interview.

That's a fair point, Kar. I generally try to keep my expectations realistic.
Part of the issue this season may be that the people who were dominating the game initially were quite miserable in their treatment of the leftovers, which probably made the Leftovers unrealistically appealing despite their own issues which then became more evident when they were in control.
Bottom line though is people are imperfect and realistic expectations are a good thing.

Karuuna and Jimmer, I love your perspectives and I try to watch BB with that same outlook.

Jimmer I think that is exactly what it is. I loved the Robin Hood type of feeling I got from the leftovers. The underdogs who were tired of the elite and decided to take their power away and give it to those who were hurt and ignored by them. The perfect alliance for an empath like myself. Kyle destroyed that and tainted the alliance for us. Then Terrance and Dyerfest with its tainted version of events that destroyed the good will we felt.
I hate character assignations and I hate sore losers. The "if I can't win I will destroy the person I hold responsible for my own mistakes".. Those people ruined a really good game this year.
You would think after all these years I would realize that can't ask for perfect when dealing with real people. But I keep hoping..lol

I think you really can't ask for perfect when so much money is at stake either.
The game sets people up to *compete*, and lying, or whatever, is not off the table.
I will say, that those who are better at lying probably have a lot of practice.
