Big Brother: Season 18

Re: Big Brother: Season 18

Sadly I don't think we'll ever see an end to the "all girls alliance" nonsense. Just like we'll never see an end to the mega alliances of like 8 people that always break down way before they ever get the chance to use numbers to their advantage.

How ironic is it that Paul was the one trumpeting the need to get the returners out first, only to find himself in the very end with 2 returners, select the wrong one, and ultimately lose

Even funnier how Nicole was supposed to be one of the first ones to go. She was the main one Paul was bashing at the beginning too when saying that the vets had to go.

On the female alliance note, 2016 could be a historic year for CBS reality shows. So far, 3/4 seasons of their "big 3" reality show this year have contained a female. They've never had a year with every one involving a female winner(This current season of Survivor could make it a perfect 4/4). That unfortunately won't stop the need for females on the show to say that the shows need more female winners, but still a crazy thing to realize it's never happened before.

You never realize just how long the HGs have been cut off from the outside world until you hear Corey finding out in the post-show interviews who won the NBA Finals.

Anyone else find it interesting how Corey suddenly seemed less dumb when he entered the jury house? His whole personality changed, was he the male Natalie all along?

Yeah I think he played the dumb jock role to be less threatening, on the feeds when it was him and Nicole or Paulie even when he was there Corey was much more perceptive than the show edits painted him.

Which past Big Brother cast member did you like most?
I really like Cody [Calafiore] from Season 16. Cody is very likable, like me. He makes rational decisions when the time comes, does well at analyzing situations, and doesn't stir the pot at the wrong times.

The chicks also like him, so, in my eyes, he's a very dynamic player with a lot of potential to win. I really see my game being similar to his and maybe a little mixture of Zach [Rance] from Season 16, at times. Zach likes to make moves here and there, which I do, too, because I don't like to pass up an opportunity just because of a risk.

Do you have a strategy for winning the game?
I plan to use my great people skills and stay off the block by making as many alliances as possible, even individually. I don't want to have too much power to where I'm forced to get blood on my hands. I'm also not going to be a floater. I'm going to be a key player in competitions and have one of the strongest social games.

I don't want to give anyone a reason to vote me off, but if I'm ever in position to have to put someone on the block, I'll really have to dig for a logical reason and explain why for damage control. I definitely want to have one of the strongest relationships with one or two other players that would be the strongest in the game.

Curious to see what happens with Nicole, when it was down to final 5 Vic/Paul/James/Corey/Nicole he was talking to Vic and Vic was asking about them after the game and Corey basically said they'll always be best friends but he wasn't looking for a relationship, they can visit each other but didn't seem into much beyond friendship outside the house. Have a feeling Nicole won't like that (especially after she didn't even want to kiss Hayden in the house her first season but was doing much more with Corey) but I guess 500k makes that easier to take.

Re: Big Brother: Season 18

The show no doubt gave him that type of edit. Look at all the weird moments he got. Sleep talking Harry Potter, voices in his head while cleaning, the Christmas stuff(he even admitted he likes Halloween more,but BB keeps forcing Christmas on him), among other moments.

Looking at BB OTT schedule, I hope some does translate to the summer season. Much more recaps, live DR sessions, live comp/ceremonies. Season itself might not be great, but the experiments they seem to be trying out for live feeds sounds good

Re: Big Brother: Season 18

Schedule in case anyone else is interested

Re: Big Brother: Season 18

Curious what the safety ceremony will be and also I missed it but people are saying Julie said no jury for OTT so America will decide the winner.

Guess that saves money since this season is lower budget don't have to sequester jury.

Interesting though because with this season Nicole won but if it was up to America Paul would have beat her easily.

Re: Big Brother: Season 18

I know BB is continuing till at least 2018, but Amazing Race had good ratings too and it got randomly halted for now, so anything is possible. Not that I want it to end, but when a show has been on as long as shows like this, you always hope it doesn't end,and any signs of change causes uncertainty at times.

Amazing Race is expensive to produce.

BB is cheap. That is one reason why they like it so much.

Re: Big Brother: Season 18

Paul was an idiot for taking Nicole. He would have won easily against James. but im glad Nicole won.

Anyway, i thought it was an entertaining season. They cast a good diverse group and went next level on the comp production.

CBS has already filmed next season of the amazing race, they just don't know when they're airing it yet. Doubt that's cause of production costs.

It's probably ready to go once the first fall show gets cancelled.

I'm really going to be disappointed if that gets cancelled. I enjoy Amazing Race more than Big Brother. I don't mess with Survivor at all.

Are those on CBS or another site?

Vote for the last house guest.

Spoiler

Voted for Jozea. Both are equally annoying, but Jozea was at least entertaining to watch.
