Her downfall might be Andy. She seems to confide in him way too much despite him being caught relaying information back to Amanda/McCrae.

He may fall victim to the "sitting too pretty" position but right now he's no one's target, knows nearly everything going on in the house, and is well liked.

You're probably right. What I still just dont get is why everyone keeps confiding in him when they keep getting confronted by other guests (usually big mouth Amanda) saying, "Andy told me" and "Andy said".
It really doesn't make sense to me why they keep going back to him. It's ridiculous. This season is just ridiculous.

You have a point. There was that time where Jessie came to him about back dooring Amanda and it was out there for everyone to see that Andy took what Jessie talked in confidence right to Amanda. There has to be a bunch of people in the house that don't trust him at all but it appears Helen thinks she's closer to him that what it actually is.

I'd really love to see Spencer get HOH as he's probably the only sure fire player that will put up two of the biggest players. Would really alter the game as he was fortunate this week that the tables got turned at the last minute.

I felt bad for Judd as he was trying to figure out what was going on while they backdoored him. Him sitting in the chair, begging people to change their minds while the show was on break was tough to watch.

On the other hand, I'm happy for Andy, as he seems to be sitting pretty well in the house right now. He's been playing a subtle game, making calculating moves, while lurking in the shadows.

I'm really hoping Elissa heads home in the next couple of weeks though. She's beyond annoying right now.

My feelings on the season are that I really don't like the people, there is not one person I'd want to spend 5 minutes with outside of Spencer and he is the biggest a-hole among them.

I think that whoever has the balls to get Amanda and/or Helen out will be winning the game right now.

If things continue the way they have been, one of those two wins- which is a sad day for BB. What a bad season.

I could certainly spend more than 5 minutes with Jessie.

Whether I would need the full 5 minutes is another story.

Jessie is growing a bit of a beer gut lately. She went downhill pretty fast.

I think this season is filled with a bunch of floaters (minus Helen and Amanda). I'm so sick of hearing the houseguests whining about "that's what the house wants".
It was so stupid of everyone to be balling their eyes out when they just voted Judd out. Judd was the last houseguest I was cheering for, and he got screwed for sure. Props to Helen for playing a hell of a game (as annoying as she can be).
I think in any other season, Helen would've been evicted by now, but since this season is a bunch of spineless followers, it's allowed Helen to just dominate. She's doing it in a smart way though, by not being too aggressive, and jumping on any opportunities. Her best move was to align with Elissa (america's MVP and huge target) and win HOH for herself. That week changed the season IMO.

I think Andy should have listened to Helen, and put up Amanda and McCrae, voted out McCrae, leaving Amanda by herself (also with a huge target on her back). Amanda is pretty useless so she could be voted out the following week.

I can't stand Amanda anymore, and as much as i like McCrae, they both need to go.

I would like to see a HOH have the guts to put up the 2 driving forces behind this season and the 2 that are manipulating everyone else to get blood on their hands. Helen and Amanda. Let both of the main alliances duke it out for POV. Helen wins nom Elissa if Amanda wins nom McRae.

This season is full of sheep.

I think floating is actually a legitimate strategy the problem isn't floaters the problem is that there are too many gutless houseguests afraid to make moves. Floating only get's you places only if there are directions for you to float (sides of the house) but there just isn't (well there is but nobody really realizes it yet).

I blame Helen personally. She should have put the knife to Amanda while she was up via MVP.

Dan compared Helen to Maggie (BB6)... I think it's an apt comparison.

The fact that Aaryn is still in the game after all these weeks tells you all you need to know about this years cast. It really does.

Worse... I think she'll be top 4. Putting aside the fact that she's a vile loathsome sad excuse for a human being she's situated very nicely in the game...

A: She's a goat so people don't fear the idea of sitting next to her at the finals
B: Both Helen and Amanda think she's an ally
C: She has a dumb as #### ally (Gina-Marie) for whom she is the principle
D: She's a comp beast
E: She'll do what people want her to do

... She won't be evicted for at least three weeks (Jessie and then either Helen/Elissa or Amanda/McCrae) maybe more if they decide to pick off spencer/GM first. Unfortunately.

Helen's a paper tiger. The only person in the house who has any loyalty to Helen is Elissa. Week 4 is going to be her downfall had she just gotten rid of Aaryn she'd likely be in such a better position. All she's done since is watch potential allies (and clueless Judd) get booted. Whose going to pick Helen over Amanda?

McCrae: Not a chance
Andy: Nope, two-faced ginger reports to Amanda
Aaryn: Maybe, doubt it but maybe
Gina-Marie: Who knows what crazy does
Spencer: Nope, he want's to play with McCrae so he won't go against his suger-momma.

I feel like she's in a real bad position now.

I would love to see Spencer win HOH and put up Amanda and Helen.

Nah, I want to see Amanda and McCrae up together... honestly it's beyond stupid that no one has separated that pair yet.

Spencer had a chance to pit them against each other earlier in the HOH competition, and blew that chance.

The show will be impossible to watch if it comes down to Aaryn, Amanda, Andy & McCrae as the final 4.

I wouldn't be surprised if Amanda pressures here to backdoor Helen but this season with the exception of Judd's eviction has been extremely predictable with HOH's taking the path of least resistance.
