Big Brother 2012! (warning: spoilers)

[metallicat]

Spoiler!

I found th Dan funeral video on YouTube just now in case anyone wants to watch it. I searched for Dan big brother.

[d_phaneuf]

Spoiler!

as of right now Britney is gone, Shane plans to tell her tonight

she hasn't campaigned yet so it's still possible, but looking like a 4-1 vote

[3 Justin 3]

I haven't watched that much big brother, mostly just episodes here and there from every season over the past decade. Only really started watching the past couple years (missed Dan's season), but my god is Dan good at this game.

I already knew what was going to happen, but to see him pull it off is incredible. The guy is a master of human emotions.

So that's why the last 5 pages are all spoilers! Great episode.

[MrMastodonFarm]

Epic.

Dan is a master.

He has my vote as best player to ever play the game and a lot of people feel that same way.

Replacement nominee roulette in season 10 changed the whole game and he got so many people on his side from that and cleaned house. He took Memphis to the finals but he won in a landslide. Even the people who hated him in the house voted for him to win because they respected him so much as a player. This move that he did was absolutely amazing and could go down as the best move to date. He got himself and Danielle to be safe, and at the same time nobody has him as the #1 target next week.

[Machiavelli]

Seeing the facial expressions of everyone when things went down...priceless.

Shane getting so emotional surprised me.

The looks on Britney and Ian's faces at the veto ceremony were especially good.


Dan is a genius. I want him to win the most, then Ian and then Shane. If Joe coasts to the end of the game, I will wreck something.

[oilyfan]

I don't think I exaggerate when I say - that has to got be the single best reality tv episode in history. Ok maybe a little, but that was fantastic, Dan is definitely the man!

[d_phaneuf]

turned out surprisingly well for Dan, I don't think it's the greatest move of all time because Frank has believed almost everything people have told him, some of the stuff Will did is still above it for me

Ian alone has lied and then regained his trust 3-4 times

But he kept himself safe, and he's arguably still in a very good position

very strong move

[d_phaneuf]

The looks though were clearly the best part, I hope Ian somehow wins HoH just because I think he's the one person almost everyone else would nominate this week and it will be entertaining to see them scramble

[bluck]

That was probably the best episode i've ever seen of that show and i've watched it from like season 2.. EPIC Episode!

[trackercowe]

I hope Ian goes soon. He is just way too smarmy to get behind (like so many other geeky contestants before his time).

I also think Frank made the correct move tonight. Now there is a better chance that someone other than Jenn won't put him up. If He didn't make the alliance with Dan & Danielle it was almost certain that he was going on the block if Jenn did not win. Now really it could be a 50/50 shot, where he only goes up if Shane, Joe, or Ian win the HoH.

I just wonder if Dan and especially Danielle have the guts to put up former members of their alliance. Certainly they would put Joe up, but they may not be willing to put up Ian or Shane.

It also makes you wonder if Dan will continue to throw competitions as nobody is really gunning for him anymore (unless Frank exposes the deal he made).

[Blaster86]

Hate Dan. Hate Ian. Miss Boogie. Go Frank.

I think he has to start winning, he's likely no one's number 1 target. But he's definitely in the mix for being a replacement nominee if someone uses for veto for everyone in the house but Danielle

[Yeah_Baby]

I wonder if Britney stopped crying enough to actually campaign to stay.



Ian looked like he was going to crap himself when Frank took a shot at him before telling Brit to "pop a squat". Ian talking about Frank being his target was laughable. Yeah, Ian you're this big time player. Not like Brit and Dan were using you at all.

[Jiggy_12]

Best episode since Jeff used the diamond power of veto a few years back. Big brother at its finest

[Erick Estrada]

IMO Frank deserves to win. He's winning the competitions and while Dan's maneuver was masterful this is the first time he's been on the block with his back against the wall and it takes two to tango and Frank was smart enough to cut ties with Brittney, Shane, and Ian and align with a player he's loathed all season. Most players would let their personal vendetta's get the best of them and keep Dan on the block. He's playing a very good game given his back has been up against the wall since week one.

[Parallex]

I lol'ed

Spoiler!

Ian (Speaking to Dan) campaigning for Brit to stay says that if he wins HoH he will put up Frank and Jenn because nomenations without Frank would be like Easter without eggs

Just the fact the Dan came up with such a complex brilliant plan in my books he is a game genius. Go back to when Boogie and Frank were tearing into him, he kept calm didn't divulge anything about Ian or the alliance at all. Took all the heat for the entire Quack pack, he is an incredible player.
No wonder the team he coached won the state championship he has an incredible mind.

I would argue that someone whose playing a very good game doesn't have their back up against a wall since week one anytime they don't win HoH. Frank is great at competitions but he's weak in just about every other area of the game. He's Season 12 Rachel Reilly...

Season 12 Rachel Reilly: 1 (and only 1) Solid Ally: Brenden, Really Good at Comps, Upsets many people often, no real long term planning.

Season 14 Frank Eudy: 1 (and only 1) Solid Ally: Boogie, Really Good at Comps, Upsets many people often, no real long term planning.

Season 12 Rachel Reilly sucked (although entertaining).
