Tons and tons of BB players will be on B&B for a day or two. Including most of my favorites from this season. Amber! Zach!

This answers 16 questions about this season. Christine's responses make me fume and laugh at her.

As for the show's plans, I don't think they intended to push Derrick (I think they wanted to push Frankie and maybe Nicole/Christine and then once Derrick was the clear winner, they gave in), but it did seem very one-sided by the last month of episodes. I think he kind of wore them, and everyone, down. I think he was a very good player but I think the twists this season were ones he used to his adantage.

What else is CBS going to show in the summer? Its a reality show so it doesn't cost as much to produce as a scripted series. As a summer, it doesn't face much competition and its ratings were higher. Obviously it went down as this was premiere week for most networks, which is perfect timing for BB to end

The show has had over 6.0 for most of this season and has passed the 7.0 mark several times. AND this is with ratings down as it did better last year

If you mean Dick's season (BB8), I totally agree. If you mean BB16, I also agree, although I do think the winner was deserving and I really genuinely liked a lot of these people, so to my surprise I don't have any negative memories of the season, the way I did last season.

As for Dick - he has my sympathy. I know it's not easy for anyone to admit their HIV diagnosis publicly, even today. I hated him on BB but I don't wish that disease on anyone.

    • I admit...I too thought of Penny and Good Times at that ending with SilkPress.
    • Yes, just so.  Thanks for the info. I could tell this was going to be a big thing with ShawnD in this danger! Especially love that the little guy is Andrew!
    • I think the shocker would be if he's NOT playing Dumas. That's where Josh Griffith plays most of his stories. Now they have Cole "self-isolating" because they don't want to put up that hospital set. Will Cole cough himself to death at the GCAC? What a "storyline." I can't believe how much JG is playing with us regarding Nick and Sharon. The teasing has become pathetic, especially for Shick fans who want them back together. My guess is that he'll reveal his real name once he is exposed.
    • Maybe we'll meet Leslie's mama who'll be a former Articulette and they'll build the rival family from there that a lot of people seem to think is missing. It'd make sense considering Anita's been hammering on about going on tour and reviving her music career. 
    • hahaha at the Brennan shade.   But even I saw this and have to agree. What's really sad is that some of the person on that list could easily have a love interest that is on the canvas. They just need to be written for. 
    • The thought has crossed my mind. Tricia Mann-Grant did say in her EW interview w/ MVJ and DD, that Leslie wants to be a Dupree just as bad as she wants Eva to be. I believe now that's the direction they are going in, that maybe she is just obsessed with the family. I could be wrong though.
    • True. But I have always had mixed feelings about that twist. Since I love the Damian storyline which already had twists and turns. Also I could not wait for a new powerful AND BLACK businessman to mix it up at some point with Victor. It just seem like another twist that was added on for twist sake. And also for a character (whether I love him or not) to hijack a new and refreshing storyline so they can be propped.    Once good thing that I can say about JG is that he loves to keep the Abbotts in rotation. So I could see that happening with Diane. I don't think she has mentioned her backstory, either. I would be intrigued. 
    • That's how I feel. Beats could have been played for the past couple months wherein Dante and Gio interacted and had a difference of opinion -- or something. I don't know. I do know that this crushing rant that blames everything on Gio is absurd. -- Reading over all the comments here about characters and couples, it's kind of amazing that we have any show left considering the number of times actors and writers and execs were given influence to make major character and story decisions. Too many cooks in the kitchen.
