Really? Apart from the Coaches immunity in the first four weeks this has felt like one of the lesser rigged seasons of the Grodner Era (with the most rigged being S8 and the least being S10).

The Frank save had to have been one of the most blatant riggings yet.

I wish they had to have a plan in place before the season started that could not be altered. Bring in twists like the Diamond PoV and Pandora Boxes and even let America nudge the game the way they want, to help keep the ratings and interest, but don't have secret powers come out when it looks like a fan favourite or love to hate player is about to go. I heard because it's labelled as entertainment and not a gameshow (which differs from the first season(s)) they are pretty much allowed to do what they want.

The Diamond POV was a blatant way to let Jeff and Jordon control that season.

I stopped watching at that point.

See... I don't think that was a rigging. When Willie got evicted it burned a "week" of the season that they had to get back somehow and it was either stop a eviction or cancel a DE episode (and viewers like DE episodes) I think they were going to cancel the eviction at the reset regardless of whether Frank was up or not.

Most blatant rigging was S8... that was all rigging for Dick. Favoritism Edit + America's Player = Massive unfair advantage. Although the Jeff Coup D'etat power is pretty up there.

Not to mention not kicking Dick out for assaulting Jen was a definite unfair advantage.

Jeff won the coup d'etat.

Matt from the Brigade won the Diamond POV.

Then called Brendon a big dummy live on TV... funny to think that two years later he`d be officiating Brendon and Rachel`s wedding.

She's gone completely nuts... I mean she was nuts before but she's just gone Loony. Production seriously needs to dope her something fierce and arrange a graceful exit + counseling for her to avoid the embarrassment of having a clearly insane person F2'ing their show.

She's Bat#### Crazy!

Wow those are some pretty ignorant, ######y comments from Dan towards Danielle.

I don't want Ian or Dan to win this thing anymore, so I won't even bother watching the finale.

I've heard a couple people say it on the show, but is Ian really only 5'3"? I'm cheering for that weird little spit#### as well.

I was watching the feeds. Dan/Danielle were bugging each other like brother/sister when the fishing comment was said. She threw a pillow at him and Dan said it.

I like Ian. Who isn't a sucker for an underdog story. I think he pulls out a win on Thursday. Kids livin' the dream gotta love that. I think him and frank are a lock for all-stars (if they do another all-stars).
