BOTS is trash and has been trash, and not the fun kind, for years. I still remember when they asked a winner they disliked if he had been bullied as a child or ignored at home. They also accused him of being a wife-beater. And it's gotten worse over time. It's not fun to provoke an incident that gets someone sent to the hospital. I used to like AIslyene years ago but she's shown herself up over and over this year.

 

BBUK viewers hate Americans - it takes a lot to get an American to win (Gary Busey played the doddering old man to a tee - something Janice never pulled off). Whoever wins will probably be someone who made it clear they hate America. If they have issues with women it's a bonus. So I'm guessing Bobby.

I think Natasha is going to win. Possibly Stevi/Chloe as their fans have been voting in force this season.

 

James/Austin fans votes are going to split between them.

 

I don't think Bobby has a shot at all. I see him finishing in last. Sherrie will probably finish 3rd. 

 

I knew an American wasn't going to win thanks to the twist being stressed all season. I think that twist is total bullsh-t. If this twist was implemented on our BB, we'd still look past their national background and root for the underdog. Plus, the interviews wouldn't be so biased. 

 

But the UK disdain for us is saddening. I've noticed it a lot on Twitter and forums this year. From the generalizing to the elitist thoughts. And not saying we are innocent but I think the Brit audience seriously took this twist to heart.

I think James and Austin may have different fanbases going into the finals. James won't win because he's seen as "fake" and a "gameplayer." Austin is too polarizing.

 

You may be right about Natasha. I think she has a great chance. It's just that a lot of older men have won recently.

 

Channel 5 has repeatedly stoked anti-American views to keep this show afloat. I remember how hard they pushed that line in the season that Denise Welch, who made a damn fool of herself, won. It's one of the reasons I find the show so difficult to watch. It is based so much on hate and rage now.

Dissappointed in Aiseyne. You could see her pick up the glass. I hated her during her original season but she won me over this summer when she returned. This line was a classic

Farrah held her own well though also especially to that first woman that tried to go in on her. Did you notice during that exchange Farrah didnt look at her once. She was paying her dust and talking directly to Rylan while that hag lost her mind

Where did she get the crown from? Queen

 

I dont know if this bothers anyone else but it bothers me how everyone SHADES Chloe to her face and she takes it. How many times is someone going to call her weak and she just stands there? I mean she is, but its kind of rude and disrespectful for them to say that near her or worst, to her face while yelling.

 

Sad to see Janice go. She was a calming force and completely changed my opinion on her. She said this was the real Janice and what we saw on the other shows was a character and I believe her. Unlike some 1 hour edited weekly show from before, she was in this house filming for 24/7. I dont think you can fake it that long. She was motherly, rationale and overall a good person. I didnt buy into those that called her evil and manipulative. I didnt see that. She's a bigger person than me bc I didnt like her giving Austin a pass instead of holding him accountable for his actions. "Oh he's just a kid"...no he's not. He's a grown man nearing 30. He may act like a child but he isnt and shame on him for his behavior

James wins....what a surrpise. Not. The fiale had 5 Brits vs 1 American and that was obvious from launch week. I think the biggest shocker was Bobby ending 4th and Austin being 2nd.  Both vile. Im guessing BB has a big gay audience and that may be why Austin was supported for so long and the female audience just ate up James. I really would have rather Natasha won when it came down to them three

What a GREAT season. I enjoyed every single episode and I'm totally satisfied with the conclusion.

 

I'm glad James won. He was charming and played the game with the viewing public. He couldn't lose. The casting people got very lucky with the James/Austin bromance, that was television gold. 

 

Bobby sure got a lot of mileage out of his epic face to face nomination speech against awful Farrah. He scripted that incredibly. 

 

And best of all, Vicki Michelle MBE is pressing charges against Farrah. Ms. Michelle confirmed that Janice threw a chair at Farrah to stop Farrah from hurling more glasses. Apparently Janice was a good shot.

I think it may be more the other way around - James is catnip to gay men, while some women may have supported the Austin/James whatevermance. But pieces of ass don't win the show all that often, so I think it may be that most of the other people in the final just weren't that liked.

    • There are couple of thoughts I would like to share.  I haven't been around for a while, so it's possible that other people have already addressed these matters. 1. The other day, Michael referred to Scout as his children's 2nd cousin.  That is not right.  Drew and AJ were half-brothers.  That means that AJ's son, Michael, and Drew's daughter, Scout, are half 1st cousins.  That, in turn, means that Scout is half 1st cousins, once removed to Wiley and Amelia.   2. I wonder if the show will have Monica and Lesley die on the same day, perhaps a few hours apart.  That would be an interesting end for their characters.  
    • I tend to lean into Nigel Campbell's work and lately, Ryan Quan, as well.
    • Outside of their headwriters, GH and BTG only credit the breakdown Writer and scriptwriter for each episode. Days credits their whole team daily with their breakdown writer listed after Ryan Quan. Their scriptwriter is the last writer listed. Hope Rena Sofer ain't gone for good
    • Thank you, that makes sense.  I do pay attention to the list when I watch.  I seem to like episodes where Charlotte Gibson is on the list.

    • It's no smaller than Beyond the Gates, honestly. Usually comprised of a breakdown writer, a script writer and a script editor; they only credit each episode with who dealt with that episode's work. But they do have a list of nine writers altogether (not counting Korte and Van Etten).
    • LOL!  He kept saying homina, homina, homina. Like the Three Stooges.   
    • Fantastic show today.   Tamara has me weeping and she was right when she said the story would be unexpected.

      date: Tuesday, June 3 | Sara A. Bible, Danielle Paige | Steven Williford Anita is too emotional for an artefact of the Articulettes? What the Hell happened?! Child bride, what in the Hell are you doing at Dani's home? Put your pee-pee stick away, please. No one cares. Dana is seeking a restraining order against Katherine, yet approaches her at Orphey Gene's? Delulu to the highest of extents, ma'am! Of course Bill would want Tomas to spy on the Dupree family for him via his [new] relationship with Katherine. That's low, Bill. Do not do it, Tomas. Not even to get yourself ahead; I'm sure the Duprees will help you open your own law firm. Yes, child bride, take the test in front of the superior Hamilton wife. Do it. I dare you. What have you got there, Anita? A letter to "Anita Williams Articulette"? What's this about? Dani's line about sharing a husband and the child bride spreading her legs for her is brilliant. Poor Andre, having to see Ashley make out with the man she shouldn't even be with. Go fight for your woman, Andre! But the second choice is always there. Oh, so much like the Supremes, there was a fourth Articulette at some point? Interesting. Nice detail. Ashley versus Dana? Oh now this is some juicy, juicy development I needed! Yes, let this happen. But Derek, sit your useless ass down. Maybe go save another cat from another fire. While I appreciate Katherine's persistence, Tomas continues to bring up brilliant points from a legal point of view. Ms Dana, go ahead and take Derek off of Ashley's hands, please. Time you got yourself someone new, although you want things you're not meant to have. It's your character trait. Bill is definitely beginning to give signs of something very serious; is it epilepsy? Oh shït is hitting the fan, re: the Anita storyline. She knows this letter, back to front. Wow. Damn... so the fourth Articulette unalived herself? That's a strong reveal, and not at all what I would expected! Notes: Once again, Karla Mosley (Dani) continues to eat up the dialogue written for her and delivers it so effortlessly. I've noticed this several times in the past month, but Alex Alegria's (Tomas) jackets, from my perspective, seem to be tailored too tight in his arms, or Jeresa Featherstone is buying things to fight the other parts of his upper body. The smarter thing to do would be to buy something that fits his more athletic upper arms and tailor in the sides of the jackets. Because the ones he's been wearing recently do not fit him properly, they should not be bunching at the shoulders like that. Tamara Tunie (Anita) just earned herself the Emmy! Give it to her right now.
    • Bill right now
