Sucks that Andy has to be the odds on favorite to win the game. The twist did nothing to deter floaters like him, Judd, and Spencer from getting far in the game.

After ambushing Aaryn last week Julie sure did puss out in Amanda's interview. Why not read her some of the lines she said in the house? Disappointing.

I was disappointed about this too, but not surprising if the rumours are true about Amanda being friends with the producer.

Those same rumours said she was predetermined to win. While she has connection in CBS that very likely helped her land an audition I think the edit she was given the last couple weeks should have squashed that rumour. While it still wasn't capable of capturing how vile of a person she was, it was a lot fairer than many other former houseguests have had.

And up until the last live eviction she honestly believed she was being edited as the hero of this season. Only because she's a psycho could she believe that but the mere fact she did believe it should be enough evidence that the producers weren't personal friends here. If they were you would think they would have warned her how she was coming off but instead she thought America was going to love her "destroying Elissa" and was shocked and upset when she realized (based on a question and reaction of Julie) that wasn't the case.

I think her exit interview was a lot tamer because Aaryn was a scapegoat. There has been bigger racists in the house (see Brayden from BB11) but the issue went on for so long with so many people involved and the pressure became too great not to give a glimpse of some of these people's true character. Aaryn was the easy choice and CBS wanted to show they didn't agree with her when she left the house. The others, while completely unfair, got off on most of the vile stuff they said because CBS doesn't want to give Big Brother the reputation of being that trashy of a show. Especially since the last houseguest who hadn't said something completely terrible was Helen.

I hope it is a Judd vs GM final 2. Andy just bugs me and Spencer has done nothing the entire game other then not be voted out each week. And McCrae being associated with Amanda wants me want him out.

I hope Judd wins the game. This year as a whole, I didn't like the housguests compared to previous years. BB 10, 11, 12, and 13, and even 14 with Dan, etc all had much better casts then this season.

Happy Amanda is out finally.

I think I'm going with Judd too. Seems like a good guy and really the only person left that I can stand.

McCrae nominated his most plausible ally. Probably thought she backstabbed Amanda (instead of Andy). Not sure if telling Amanda about the exterminators was a good move for Andy from a jury management perspective.

Depends. Andy doesn't want to be thought of as a floater so he has to demonstrate that he made big moves and turning on Amanda is a big move. That being said I think this jury is going to be swayed more by his many personal betrayels then anything else. I have no one left to root for everyone I wanted to win is now in jury.

The twist was a failure. If BB really wants to put an end to the unanimous evictions that lack any suspense they would simply announce to the houseguests which person gets evicted and not tell them the vote count. If a small group wants to go against the house they can vote that way and give it a shot. If they get the votes its great because it's the person they want out is evicted. If they don't get the votes it's also good because the other people in the house won't know that a group voted differently. You would no longer have stray voters worried about being outed as the person/s that voted the other way.

I have no clue why the show would think this twist of putting 3 guest up would change a thing when the real issue is that there's just too much pressure for voters to tow the line given the vote count is announced to them.

I hope any conspiracy talk can end now. That was literally the worst case scenario for CBS last night. The biggest villain gets booted and then America's favorite player gets the axe as well.

Ratings with this final 5 won't be good.

I've never bought that conspiracy talk. I believe the show has added twist in hopes of getting poplular house guests further but I don't buy that they interfere and dictate moves within the game by players.

I just don't want McCrae or Andy to win. The others aren't much better though...

At this point I think I want Spencer to win. The pawn almost never wins so it'd be interesting to see it happen for once. Plus I think having a grody disgusting Perv win would be a fitting end to this season.

Elissa looked really dumb for thinking McCrae back-stabbed Amanda, but McCrae made the biggest mistake of the year by nominating Elissa. Obviously he was not aware of this and thought Elissa voted against Amanda. He essentially needs to either win POV and HOH every week from here till the end to have a chance. His only chance this week is winning the POV, otherwise he's history. It was a good attempt by Elissa to switch sides at the last minute, but too little too late.

I think Andy has put himself in a great position, as much as I dislike the weasel - Elissa thought McCrae voted Amanda out, so she didn't campaign against Andy to McCrae (there would be no reason for McCrae to go after him if he thought Andy was being loyal to Amanda). McCrae probably thinks Andy gave his vote to Amanda, and that Elissa voted her out.

He's also in good with GM, Spencer, and Judd....sitting pretty for now.

Probably... if the Houseguests this year were smart he wouldn't this week but they aren't so he does. If I were Judd, Andy, or Spencer I'd look at the all girl jury and decide that Gina-Marie can't be left in this game another week. Not that they would for sure vote on gender lines... but with only two HoH's left why take the risk?

Huge mistake, maybe worst HoH run of all time. He got out the only person who was on his side and now a four person alliance are the only players competing in the HoH, it literally could not have been a better double eviction for The Exterminators.

However, I can't overlook Nick's failure this season. A simple question with a simply answer and he flubbed it. Maybe it's not as bad it I think it is but a wannabe-mastermind of the game didn't think it was a good idea to tell the MVP he had her back?
