    He looked strange....like super "puffy".

    Cara's face looked like she started taking steroids or something....very gross.

    I have a weird feeling Bananas is gonna make a long run in this one. He seems to be hanging in the background and he's not the number one target....that's where he thrives.

    The UK’s girls seem super poor outside of 1-2. Only way I see that changing is if 2 bad ones play each other and the winner gets to switch teams.

    If the winner of the “proving ground” wants to switch teams, is there a member of the team they are joining sent to the other team to keep numbers fair?

    Never thought we’d see the day where CT was talked about and treated as if he were Big Easy.

    Great twist idea allowing people to switch teams.

    He looks in better shape but he’s still got the gut

    Seeing him wearing a shirt in these swimming challenges goes to show you how out of shape he has gotten

    He’s starting to make me think he’s one of those players who manufactures drama for the show, he seems so different now

    Yup. It's all by design. The last few shows, the main goal of the house seemed to be to get him out ASAP. He's been extremely smart so far.

    I remember about 10 years(yikes) ago there was a team season of vets vs rookies and the vets team was stacked and won most of the daily challenges but in the end couldn’t work together to win the final

    It was the same season big easy swore he wouldn’t be a liability in the final so they kept him and then they had to run the final chained together and CT was at the end with big easy and literally dragged him until big easy had 1 foot in the grave and had to quit

    This season reminds me of that and feel like MTV will add some challenges where the vets will have to work together and they will implode since they have so many chiefs and not enough indians

    Josh sealed his fate but Laurel knows she's untouchable so it makes sense for her. As good as Wes is it should benefit the Americans because they need to clear some of the clashing personalities from the room and everyone knew he was cutting deals

    Entertaining for sure and if Wes couldn’t be trusted then it’s better for the team maybe. But, still feels like a bit of a waste to get rid of a guy on your team when you don’t have to. Wes is by far the best swimmer and still does well in most daily challenges. Aside from Jordan, Turbo, and maaaybe Zack/Bananas, who else you taking over Wes on the US team? Certainly Leroy and Josh are worse. Maybe Paulie? Seemed unnecessary. The right move was Theo, IMO. Get as many guys off the UK team as fast as possible. Weaken them for daily challenges and continue to pluck them off one by one.

    I really enjoy Big Brother. It’s one of the most intellectually focused reality shows out there.

    The fact Josh won his season made me abandon the show. He’s a fucking moron.

    I dont think there's any BB fan who would compare Josh to those 3 but he's probably around 10-15 in terms of winners.

    You have to be a little nuts to go on a reality show.

    I’ve met a handful of Bachelor contestants at parties. They’re all just a bit off. Not sure if that’s because fame as gotten to them or that’s how they’ve always been

    Some thoughts after catching up

    -Bear calling out Wes and Wes being all confident and turning it down only to be voted in minutes later was great TV. Wes was caught just completely off guard and was mentally checked out the second that happened so I figured he was losing. We assuming laurel tipped off her boy toy Bear hence the call out?

    - Wes was right though you can’t play an emotional game and my god Josh is all emotion. I feel like he’s almost cried in every episode. Him saying he was going to send in UK’s best player then pulling a “i never said that” was just :facepalm:

    - These team challenges have completely neutralized turbo

    Also i noticed TJ didn’t go in order and had zack make his pick first and then laurel and josh, I’m just assuming these guys tell the producers/TJ ahead of time who they are picking?

    Probably common knowledge but I never really thought about it

    Thought Wes came off looking like a pretty big bitch. Not only was he mentally checked out and headed home before he got started, but Bear dropping elbows and basically fighting him never got him mad or amped up or anything. Think half the dudes there would’ve dropped the ball and started fighting and the other half would’ve at least gotten pissed and done it back. Wes just laid there

    I wish they went Zach/Theo, Josh/Wes, Laurel/Theo... And let a vet burn the fuck out of Josh.

    The USA team is beyond stupid to pick themselves and go a man down

    This is especially why Josh is a fucking idiot and the worst winner in the history of BB.

    Scenario 1: You take out one of the best players on your team and weaken your performance overall. You also make yourself a target when he leaves.

    Scenario 2: Wes wins and comes back looking for your head with all his relationship capital.

    Neither of those scenarios are advantageous to Josh, who was supposedly the best player in his BB season.

    I almost jumped up off the couch. Laurel was so condescending the whole episode. I think Ninja’s climbing ability was negated by Laurel’s height and wingspan, making it easier to put all those pegs in.
