I wonder if HoH will be played tonight.

Not sad to see her go due to the side she chose but she really is too adorable with the dumb act. I don't think she is as stupid as she acts. I think she's nearly that stupid, nearly.

Jenn was in her corner until she decided to fight for and campaign for getting Jenn out over Boogie. If she hadn't gone so hard for Boogie and Frank, she would have had another week or two and the extra QP's might have gone first because they thought she was harmless.

I feel bad for her, but she went too dang hard when she chose a side.

Frank lives! Dude is mad competitor, ilterally and figuratively. LOL I know Frank wants Dan gone but is there a way for the Quack Pack and Frank to make it to the final 6? Because that's what I want to see. Ashley seems like nice girl but she really is too dumb for words. That speech was hilarious, as was Joe's non-verbal speech (that was brilliant!!). So why did the QP decide to keep Joe and evict Ashley? Did she really align herself with Mike/Frank and everyone knew about it? Because it would've been easier to keep the dumb person who can't do physcial competitions - so she really has little chance in winning any competition. Hopefully another floater (Joe or Jen) leaves next week and the week after.

I can totally see the veto comp being rigged. Sure, Groder didn't know 100% Frank was going up but she had to know there was a good chance he would. Then she just has to assign Frank to the lane with the most clovers. - I think Rachel or Brendon won the same competition last year, that's why this type of competition is suspicious.

Yes, she aligned herself with Frank and Booogie without shame. Started giving the other team dirty looks. Was trying to help get out the girl who would have rode to the end with her (Jenn). It was dumb.

Joe is Rat #2 for the Quack Pack. Ian is their main Rat. Joe also loves Shane in a ride to the end or die way. Ian loves Britney (she's always talked with him like gf's even though she yells at him from time to time) and Dan fell on Frank and Boogie's swords for Ian.

Then there's the fact that Frank is an ---hole which just works against him with everybody.

Why do you like Frank rigging and hate Rachel rigging?

Uness there was another similiar one, it was a clown shoe competition last year. AG blatantly had Jeff's shoes on top. He accidentally threw his shoe over and couldn't find it, lol.

Oh man even if Frank loses HoH and PoV, AG could always throw in Pandora's box. PB saved Jordan last year (the duo twist) before the POV aligned to Rachel's strong point (but she won it fair and square as ther wasn't liquid slime on the other body doubles).

I wonder why Ian chose to reveal himself to Mike just before Mike exited. Now Frank knows Ian is not on his side. And with two votes that Frank got, Ian could've said that one was his.

I don't like any kind of rigging and I'm always suspicious at competitions where it can be rigged. I would've prefered to see Frank win a non-suspicious competition.

You appeared to be rooting for Frank to make it far a while and, if I remember correctly, you were blowing gaskets during Rachel's run. And Rachel actually had to win competitions that couldn't be fixed as much as "guess how many?" (Frank could have been given the numbers to write or production could have been feeding Dani the Frank friendly answers. That was not an easy competition to call without production help) and find the item(s) in a large bowl of balls (placing more than the amount in the bowl, the placement).

I'm okay with rigging to a point, like you. It crosses that line when you do things like the "team PB twist" as well as the games listed above. Ian is a Before & After nerd, one could say they rigged it for him to win that one. Are we all too suspicious?

They would have figured it out. When Ashley turned, she turned hardcore. I don't think they would have doubted her. Ian could have said he was pressured though instead of telling and bragging.

I hated Rachel so I was really mad. I like Frank better than Rachel, so I'm a little disappointed but not "mad." If I continue to see Frank win competitions that can possibly be fixed, I'll stop rooting for him.

Did Danielle have the answers (written on the cards)? If so, then that's a comp that cannot be fixed.

Yeah, that comp favours Ian because he's smart, but it's not a comp that can be fixed because the audience can go back and find out if the answers were correct.

It still would've given Ian a chance to lie about it instead of Frank knowing right away.

The issue with rigging is when it becomes so blatently obvious it is being rigged to ensure one person will win the entire game, not help keep the house interesting week to week. I was fine with them rigging it last season to bring Brenden back, but once Jeff was out the game was done and Rachel won. There was absolutely zero chance of AG allowing her to be evicted and it showed, hardcore. And much like frank, the worst part was she didnt really need rigging, shes good player.

It always comes out after the season is over how rigged it was. The players know but can do nothing. Its not unheard of for prodcution to pay them off to not talk about rigging in the hose.

Britneys goodbye to Boogie was one of the greatest ones ever. Ever.

I am glad Frank won. I hope he gets Dan out.

    • I have this nagging feeling we think of different ones as the best! Care to fulfill my curiosity? Which are you thinking of? 
    • the famous babyswitch. the best babyswitch imo
    • Yes, it has. It was seen in the episodes when Dani broke into the house while Hayley and Bill were on their honeymoon. Dani and a Fairmont Crest security guard were also shown outside the house's entrance. Bill and Hayley were seen in the foyer when they returned. I imagine the set will resurface when there's a need for it.
    • There is some kind of arrangement going on between Justin and Evie, who seems to be caring for Sam. I'm not sure, but she may even be living there with Justin and Phillip. Phillip inviting Evie at least makes a little more sense (if the guest list was limited to women Vanessa liked, it would've only consisted of Trish and Helena. lol)  Maybe it was more common to hang on to performers, back in the day? Instead of immediately kicking them to the curb? Evie hadn't had much to do after Chet was revealed to be her stalker. With Rita, Jackie and Ben gone, there weren't many on the canvas she'd really worked with, other than Ross. They could've pivoted her back to Ross, instead of letting him languish love-less for nearly a year other than goo-goo eyeing Amanda. Nowadays, there might've been a moment written Jordan and Janet, an eye-wink to the audience about them having previously worked together.
    • I 100% agree that Bill and Haley's set would work better as a bedroom. I also think it might have made more sense to give them a penthouse instead of a mansion. Realistically they aren't going to have the room for multiple mansions, even with the larger studios. A more open concept penthouse would've been fine. I also wish more people lived together. The age confusion kinda messes that up but I would at least have Chelsea living with Dani. If Martin were Anita and Vernon's child (as he should be), I'd have these families living together as well. By doing that, the space used for Martin and Smitty's house could be used to build a dining room for the Dupree home and I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to throw a couple bedrooms in as needed.
    • CBS primetime was such a mess in the 1990s. 1990/91 fourth consecutive third place finish. 1991/92 to 1993/94 some signs of life but it didn't last.  1994/95 to 1999/2000 another primetime mess era. 1995 the sale to Westinghouse and Les Moonves arrived. The only bright spots were Touched by an Angel becoming a Top 10 show and Everybody Loves Raymond starting to show growth. CBS primetime would have a comeback in 2000 with the premieres of Survivor and CSI and Everybody Loves Raymond becoming a Top 10 show, and the rest is history.
    •  Thanks! For some reason I had misremembered ER and Chicago Hope going directly head to head but that may have been because of the hype about both shows.    Poor Connie Chung. She seem poised for success and possibly the next Barbara Walters. I don’t recall her co-anchor gig on the CBS Evening News was well received though. She kind of tanked her career moving into more a tabloid journalist role once at ABC and especially once she moved off network TV to CNN and later more infamously on MSNBC.

    • Strangely, it was Phillip who invited Evie to go to the ball with him. She had been taking care of Samantha, so I guess it was a way to thank her for helping Justin after Jackie's death? So she was not invited by Vanessa. Phillip brought her as his plus one. That Evie stayed on the canvas so long is extremely odd, especially since Ben was gone way before her. My theory is Marland was going to bring Rita back, so they wanted Evie to remain in place as her sounding board. When he left and Potter was still EP, that might have still been the plan. Once Kobe came in, that would have been thrown in the dumpster along with a lot of other story plans and characters.
    • Nina and Portia are generally presented as entirely too savvy to not think this ketamine (don't even GET me started on that) nonsense wouldn't immediately blow up in their face. Drew, the ex-navy seal and congressman, wouldn't get a drug test immediately after acting wildly out of character? Portia allowed this to so easily be traced back to her by roping in Brad, a man who can't stand her? Nina didn't think Willow would Stand By Her Man? Girl, PAY ATTENTION! I also find it disturbing how BOTH of them are gaslighting Willow. It feels gross. They should have presented Gio as anything other than a responsible, genial and affable guy if they wanted us to buy any of Dante's ranting about him. You've known this kid since he was a baby and suddenly you're yelling at him like he's the devil incarnate? It was so forced. Every one of them, including Dante, know that they all would have done the same thing in Gio's shoes. Teen gets drunk, friends cover for them. Gio's only 5 years older than him, barely allowed to legally drink himself. How was he to know the kid had alcohol poisoning? Alexa Havins crying every day over keeping a baby secret. Ahh memories. Molly and Kristina are just the worst to their mom and Alexis allows it. Kristina does need to be committed, she's a danger to herself and others. I wish Alexis would just tell her that she knows. I can't wait until Molly finds out about her almost getting Ric and Liz killed. I need her to body slam Kristina. Sasha thinks she knows EVERYTHING. She's always giving advice and painted as right no matter what. And so holier than thou while carrying a married man's baby.
