Female cast is top notch. Nicely done Big Brother! I love blondes and that Aaryn chick is stunning, but Kaitlin is probably my favorite. Just a total knockout.


Love the new twist. This season has potential to be pretty damn good.

The best part had to be when:

Julie: This year there won't be two nominees...
Idiot: One.
Jule: But three.

Would love to see the eviction votes when there was 1 nominee...

Aaryn is an anagram of Aryan. Coincidence? Probably, but she is from Texas.

Yes this is definatley the best looking BB cast ever. First Impressions: Aaryn is amazingly hot and seems pretty down to earth as well. The train conductor really rubbed me the wrong way right off the bat, he's a whiner and I found it funny he thinks he will bring an "amazing social game", as I can almost guarantee he won't be well liked. Aside from Aaryn I'll probably also pull for Nick, possibly McCrae and Howard could be OK too, if he keeps the bible thumping to a minimum.

One thing that struck me is that I think David might be putting on some of the surfer/bro/moron vibe he is giving off. I don't have much to base this off yet other then how he was interacting with the other house guests in smaller groups, but I think there is a chance he may not be as stupid as he seems. Should be a good season.

McCrae's nominees for eviction are below. Remember if posting a spoiler to use the tags, so we don't spoil it for anyone.

I have very much enjoyed watching Big Brother but there were times in last nights episode, I found it difficult to watch with way too much mugging for the camera. It really seems for casting they wanted it to be the collection of lowest IQ's ever this season.

I enjoy looking at the ladies as well but there needs to be actual game play and strategy for it to be entertaining and most of the guys seem like total ###### bags. If it's just a bunch of couples making out all the time, it will be a lost season for me.

Or perhaps it's just Aaron with a 'y' because she's a girl.

I feel the opposite. I feel a lot of the hottest women in BB history have been voted out early because of the other women being petty and wanting to get rid of the hot girl. This year I still expect the women to be petty but since most of the women are hot they will go deep into the show.

First year ever with no 40+ year old mom or dad I believe. I get that some of these guys were brought in for the female viewers but boy are some of them goofs especially that surfer dude and that squirrel he has living on his head.

Also Rachel's sister has an incredible body.

Rachel wanting Cassi out in BB13 is prime example. Damn, I miss Cassi.

I think it would be better for them to announce who the MVP nominated after the POV competition and not before. This way all POV players will actually try to win instead of some opting to throw the competition.

Throwing competitions is all part of gameplay and strategy. There are great reasons to throw a competition. I like the new rules and like how they are being enforced.

Love the anonymous nomination by the MVP. Think that's a great wrinkle in the game

I like the MVP being anonymous but still very hesitant on the twist.

I don't know. Seems like all my favourite seasons are ones where America has little impact and my favourite players are those that didn't need it.

Now with the twist, which of course is just going to be a popularity contest, at the very least "America's choice" is getting a vote against them or their alliance voided which is huge. Assuming that nominees still don't vote, which I guess might not be the case. And that's the very least, it's also capable of straight up taking out someone who would have had no reason to be on the block in the first place.

Feels like it's going to be another season where popularity, and not strategic thinking, will influence the game the most. Just like Evel Dick's season where he would have been out several times if not for the face time and nice edit he received. Instead he wins it all only because America liked him.


For me the twist could still be salvageable if the cast is good enough. If the house is capable of realizing that those being chosen as MVP are huge threats putting huge targets on them and at the same time certain MVPs are able to realize that and try and make others look like the MVP, we can have mind games galore with actual strategy. But I fear we might be in store for a season where each week is as bull####ty as Coup D'Etat.

Let's be honest, it's not the "player who has the best game" who will get the nomination, fans will pick whoever they want for whatever reason they want.

Or worse, votes aren't made public and the MVP ends up being who the producers want (though that will probably be the case anyway since they control the edits).

100% agree. No one is auditing these results.
