    Re: Big Brother 20

    I suspect most of the people voting are also watching feeds. Has anyone here ever voted in a single BB thing?

      I think casual fans MIGHT vote, but might vote more honestly (like actually answering the questions). While more hardcore fans will choose to vote the person they want to win for all of their answers. These players aren't exactly "trending" though, they're simply winning or losing a popularity contest. If BB really wanted to do trending and not trending, they'd use social media analytics and track how many times each HG gets mentioned, regardless if it's people talking about them during the show, or discussing live feeds.


      Tonights episode I thought was funny. Those BB dating profiles were so funny. Boogie only going on dates with a discount, Jodis dislike was Dan, Michelles loves crying LOL. And Kaitlyn being like "Jodi..I don't even know who she is". And that guy coming in and yelling all the time, especially that random one where he just storms into the diary room. Though that's far from a punishment. More like comedic relief, especially compared to "shove your face filled with (ham) on a regular basis for DAYS".


      Jess & Cody returning. BB trying to give Cody another random edit, giving him robot sound effects. After watching Amazing Race, you realize just how much BB messed with his edit, because he was good on Amazing Race.

        I probaby should have assumed that!

        I thought tonight's episode was not bad, too. But, man, Kaitlyn really sucks at this game. Yes, big moves are good. Yes, getting rid of Swaggy makes sense.

        Turning on your entire alliance without securing another group to work with is dumb. All she is now is someone that no one will ever trust again.

          Ironically, they brought in Cody in this episode, who did a similar thing last year.


          Speaking of Swaggy, was it just me or did he not seem over the top this episode? At least by the end of it. Like they made people feel sympathy for him. Everything all quiet, he's sitting on the couch not knowing what's going on, asks Faysal about it, and Faysal tells Swaggy that Kaitlyn told him she's sorry for what's about to happen, and then she puts him up.


          Line stolen(and cleaned up) from twitter:
          Kaitlyn: I nominate Swaggy C for eviction.
          Swaggy C: Who is Swaggy C? I'm Christopher!

            The yelling wasn't a punishment, it should have been she had to yell or use a bullhorn for the week whenever she talked.


            Kaitlin is crazy, as basically everyone could see. She has fatal attraction written all over her. I shocked she didn't take out Haleigh after Faysal got close to her. She has tried to attach herself to basically every guy in the house. Meanwhile her 5 year boyfriend has asked to pull his show release, which would stop her from talking about him. That may send her over the edge, I hope it is removed.

            She let Tyler run her HOH and she is just going to get thrown out with the trash. While I don't like Chris and would rather Winston stay, it will be a better game if Winston goes. That side of the house gets no airtime and you would think they would be all over the TV (for certain reasons), I guess they are just boring though.


            I hope something happens to force a 6-6 vote and Kaitlyn has to break without Tyler in her ear.

              At first that's what I figured the trending thing was all about, had no idea there was some voting questionnaire

                This would be a problem though as all the twitter bots would just tweet them for no reason.

                  Wouldn't it have been better for Kaitlyn & Tyler to have taken Winston off the block? He would definitely have been a vote to evict Swaggy. Scottie wouldn't have been.

                    Tyler did that to try and build trust with Scottie but I don't know if it will work or not.

                      Ya, they even showed a scene with them saying to save Scottie because he'd be loyal to them.

                      I think another reason is just in case Swaggy stays, at least Winston will be the one going, which is better than Scottie leaving and being collateral damage that could cost them a number.


                      And how many times did Scottie say "Pawns go home." in this episode lol. "I don't want to get any blood on my hands" is the next biggest BB cliche. Lol, we should make a list. What are other things we too commonly see or hear in big brother?

                        The phrase "backdoor" comes up a lot, too much in fact. Inaccruately sometimes.

                          There was some talk early in the week that his alliance (Rachel was for sure one of them can't remember who else discussed it) would prefer to vote Scottie out over Swaggy.

                          Tyler opted to build trust with Scottie and hopefully prevent his side from keeping Swaggy by keeping an alliance member, Winston, on the block.

                          Haven't been able to watch any feeds for the past 3 days so not sure if that plan is working as he hoped or not but we'll see tonight.

                            Speaking of feeds, that's an issue with the show as well. If you go online, you see how many people (feed watchers) complain about the TV show not reflecting what really went on in the house. It's like watching 2 completely different shows. It goes to show that producers want to tell their own story, and have people perceived in a certain way. (Survivor is guilty of this too, but fans don't know as much since there's obviously no feeds. It's why in reunion shows, people complain about their "edit", and Jeff calls them out on that).


                            Anyways, I started thinking about the "BB Cliches" and realized just how many we see! Decided to make a funny "BB Bingo" card that reflects a single week of BB cliches.

                              Another twist BB is already abandoning after just 3 weeks. This is another annoying part about their twists (similar with Survivor). You have the theme of the season be one thing, but then after the first 3 or so weeks the theme is basically abandoned.


                              For the final week, my guess at most trending would be Kaycee (though Kaitlyn winning wouldn't surprise me either, not due to popular vote, but due to people actually talking about her the most). Least trending I'm still going with Winston or Brett.
