Big Brother 21

[Majingir]

Show starts next TUESDAY.

Schedule is strange for first few weeks but it eventually ends up the typical Sunday,Wednesday,Thursday schedule.

Cast has been announced by CBS. 16 newbies and so far, no vets announced. If it holds true, this would be first time BB has had back to back seasons of no returning player or any newbie who has a famous relative in a decade!


Last season will be hard to top. Haven't felt that way about a season since aftermath of bb12(and even then, BB was still good back then and we weren't expecting bad seasons, so "top that" wasn't as important).

Re: Big Brother 21

I wonder where this season could rank. My past rankings:
7(AS),8,12,10,5,20 as "top tier"
Celeb,18,16,14,6,17,Celeb 2, 11 as "middle tier"
13,19,15,9 as "bottom tier"

Odd numbered seasons have done real poorly. The bottom 6 seasons for me happened to be the last 6 odd numbered seasons. Hopefully BB21 can break that curse.

You mean NO twists?


Not confirmed, guess we could find out tonight or tomorrow, but from what people are saying about the cast, the twist could be.....

Spoiler

Everyone comes into the game knowing 1 other HG. Maybe it's a pairs season or everyone must keep their relationship a secret

From reading the bios, sounds like most HGs are recruits/newbies to BB. Could be a good thing, could be a bad thing, guess we'll find out. Seeing how BB has casted some horrible superfans of the game, maybe newbies is the way to go?

My usual HG assessment (it seems to be hit or miss. Last year was rare time someone in my F2 actually made it to F2)

Spoiler

Holly: I think she'll have a good social game and could get far.

David: Could see him connecting with people early on and flying under the radar.

Nicole: Maybe the "outcast" among the females? From her bio alone, seems like she has alot to say. Maybe HGs get annoyed by that?

Tommy: Feels like he could be a generic player of the season.

Kathryn: Sounds like the social media person of the season. Maybe just on BB to boost her social media following?

Kemi: In her bio she basically claims she's a hothead. Probably an early boot.

Cliff: The older guys usually don't do so well on BB. I don't think he'll be any diff.

Ovi: I think he could be the standout person of the season. Maybe it could make him a threat early on, but if he can get in an early alliance, he has a shot to win.

Nick: Could be one of the guys to get in a showmance this season. The "we're not in a showmance" showmance.

Jack: His bio is short and to the point. I think he could be part of an alliance where he's the one winning the comps for them.

Jackson: One of the people who could fly under the radar without having much of a game.

Jessica: One of the only HGs who seems to have been a fan for many years. Though she said her age is "30ish". Makes me wonder how much older she might be compared to rest of house which could make her a target.

Christie: Another HG I could see not meshing with others as much, maybe ending up a pre-jury boot.

Sam: I feel like he could be someone who sounds interesting but ends up being a bust. Although he lists Derrick as his fave, so maybe his game ends up "boring" but still good.

Analyse: I don't see her winding up in the middle. Either she is an early boot/targeted by the other women, or makes it far.

Isabella: Another one of the HGs I could see not meshing with others and possibly an early boot because of that.

My jinxed F4 pick: Kathryn, Isabella, Kemi, Jackson
Actual F4 Pick: Holly, David, Ovi, Analyse (David/Ovi in F2)

Re: Big Brother 21

I just think they need to dial back the special powers. It's like playing poker with wildcards. If you play deuces wild, it can be kinda fun. But when you start playing with 3 wildcards, and the game becomes ridiculous.

If you want me to care about the folks playing in the game, give them a game in which their decisions matter. Too many powers, and it is just Real World, but they never leave the house.

I'm fine with twists going into the game, but I don't want the obvious production twists to help save certain people.

It probably will be good to see a game where no one knows about the game. Maybe they didn't even show them a previous season. It would be good to not have every eviction be a backdoor or unanimous vote. The game has become so bland because no one wants to be a target early.

But you know there'll never be a season like that. Where its 1 twist and that's it. BB is in love with twists and has to have a theme lasting 3 or 4 weeks before abandoning it, doing something diff and/or reintroduce the twist for a convenient moment later..

Even Survivor is becoming like that where theres immunity idols found like every other episode. Its entertaining to see craziness at tribal, but it just gets abit much with twists.


And it really is a newbie season. People even said stuff like "I haven't watched Big Brother enough to have a favourite."

Forget the BB hacker. Brett was a Clairvoyant.

Re: Big Brother 21

didn't take long for me to dislike Jackson

kinda glad he won the power so he'll be a target for whoever he puts up

feel bad for the old guy, he'll probly be next in line of early old evicts, BB might wanna tweak that formula WITHOUT ANOTHER TWIST

Re: Big Brother 21

also I don't like the trucker guy because he reminds me of the Whaboom dude from Bachelorette

How annoying was this guy?

Re: Big Brother 21

First impressions really don't mean so much on BB. You know the first episode they're editing people based on the way/reason they were cast.

And the "getting to know you" living room stuff where half the intros end with someone in the DR being like "___ is so hot!" and stuff like that.

After first week or so then we'll really be able to judge how people are like.


lol, they're really pushing this summer camp stuff, as if people calling it an extreme summer camp is a thing.

Last time I checked, Survivor, and Total Drama Island are the real extreme summer camps lol.

I really gotta stop posting predictions

Kemi survives, Jackson won camp director, Isabella is in majority alliance and David is gone.

Sad part, this isnt first time a f2 pick of mine has been out first.

Re: Big Brother 21

Gone for now, sounds like they’re going overkill with twists this year.

Camp director what a dumb power, get 4 people mad at you and one of them leaves but that one can come back too, all for a week of safety.

Alot of these people are newbies. They're willing to take those risks not knowing much about what they just did. Even when Julie set up everyone for the "expect the unexpected " line, half the house was just sitting there like "are we supposed to answer? With what?"

I hope David returns. After last season of Survivor, I guess they dont care about a person voted out returning and winning, so why not have it on bb too
