Cheering for Ryan, Adam, Natalie or Sheila, don't matter which.

Good on Natalie for winning the HoH. Yes, she can be annoying, yes, she's not very bright(All-timers disease?? haha, that was pretty funny) but she does not even come remotely close to having the level of arrogance as Josh or James do.

Seems like we're going for the same people to win. Nominations haven't been made yet but it seems pretty obvious that James/Josh will be put up so unless James wins POV he is gone. And I agree, Chelsia was the most annoying out of all of them this year. I was hoping someone would smack her.

I love that it's damn near a given that someone is going Bat-crap crazy in the house on their way out. Last year it was Hot-Jen. This year... not-so-hot Chelsea. I must say tho, I'm on board with Ryan winning, but the more I see of James, the more I'm impressed with his game.

I have two issues with Big Brother tho, that I've seen more this season than the last 3.

a) "Backdooring" - It happens, but it's not backdooring if the person who is backdoored played in the Veto comp. You should not be playing that for the people on the block, you should be playing it for yourself first. Look at Jase on All Stars. He got so pissed off that he was backdoored "again". He wasn't willing to do what it took to get the veto, and he was put up. Not backdoored IMO.

Take the first time he was on Big Brother, the plan was that he would have no shot at competing, and the votes were there to vote him out. It was a given he was going home. That is backdooring.

b) I hate that people talk about their votes to the point that we are seeing unanimous voting so that don't rock the house with their vote. Even James didn't want to be associated with Chelsea last night. I want to see people cause a ruccas by voting against the house. Look at the Matty vote, I'd rather see something like that then have the whole house, which is split down the middle vote all the same way to appease. I hate it.

I agree. It really drives me nuts. Nakomis doesn't get nearly enough credit for pulling that off either.

One of my all time favorite BB moments was when Jase, who was ecstatic to this point in the week because he thought for sure he was going home but somehow escaped the initial nomination, realized he was going up on the block as a replacement and there wasn't a damn thing he could do about it. That was classic. Perhaps some of the best orchestrated tactics in BB history.

My other beef, and they've done away with this for the most part over the past couple seasons, is calling the POV the Golden Power of Vee Toe. Just sounds so wrong to me.

Which you could then file him under that season's crazy, walking around with a sign around his neck asking for people's votes. Or the goat calls on the HOH comp, which could have very well came that week. Classic.

Awesome episode last night. James blowup was kinda creepy, thats for sure. The final segment before the PoV ceremony was great. Sheila consoling Sharon in the washroom telling her that Joshua is a good guy and all this, meanwhile, Josh is upstairs talking to Ryan and Natalie scheming against her. I love this game, it's so bloody entertaining and good god, it would be frustrating to play.

And the way he busted up his Jase gnome (that was the same season, wasn't it?) should have warranted further psychological examination.

I wonder if it actually happened at the same time or if it was just great editing.

But yeah, either way it was pretty hilarious.

Im gonna go with the editing, but whatever the case, it was magic.

His light bulb moment in the storage room with the DR voice over was so staged. Throwing Sharon under the bus is an interesting move but probably won't win him the game since she's going to sequester.

I don't even know if it's gonna work. Sure, Ryan, James and Natalie say they will vote against Josh, but will they?? I dont think so. Sharon really hasn't pissed too many people off, but Josh is kinda hot under the collar and has blown up a couple times to the point where it looked like the houseguests were frightened by him.

Adam, who would have thunk it after his brutal first few days in the house.

A-baller in the house!!!

[VANFLAMESFAN]

Well, after Adam made a huge mistake by not putting up James, Ryan comes up clutch, wins PoV and saves himself and Natalie and also gives Adam a chance to redeem himself by putting up James.

Ive always been against James, but since his psycho girlfriend Chelsia left, Im finding myself feeling bad for him as he is ALL ALONE......there is no one in the house that doesn't want to see him go. He has been quite the competitor but I see him going to sequester tonight unless he pulls a miracle and if he does......he deserves to win this game.

[Prototype]

I thought his best chance at winning was to work with Ryan... looks like Ryan thinks he can do it on his own, and truth be told, he probably can, but with James out of the house, he becomes the target/strongest player.

Stupid Shelia is getting on my nerves. Win something or shut the hell up. You're not going to win this game losing everything else.

JAMES IS OUT!!! Finally. Although, as much as I hated him, when it was him versus the house, I wanted to see him stay. Oh well. In my mind, it's still GO RYAN!!

Holy COW I hate Natalie

God, was she annoying in that damn HoH competition?? I wanted to seal up that glass box so she could stop breathing. Good on Sharon though, Im cheering for her and Ryan, would love to see them in the final 2.

Yeah, no kidding. Good to see the whole house against her now and hopefully the scheme will successfully work... for some reason though, I can see her winning POV...
