"Week #8 List" |
I ended up only missing the first 15-20 minutes last night. Don’t think what I missed would have changed my assessments. As much as I embraced Michel’s Good/Bad format this season, truth be told there’s not much good left at this point with these HGs, hence my canine them for this week.TOP DOG PAUL – Quite frankly the ONLY “dog” really left remaining. I could go so far to say the only real dog casted this season. Zingbot can tell him to STFU all it wants but Paul is poised to bark his way to a half million. SHOW DOG VICTOR - Ever since his impressive three victories in a row to deservingly win his way back into the House, he has been putting on quite an exhibition. But even the most prized show dogs need a master to lead them on a lease. That’s where Master Paul comes in. POODLE NICOLE - Cute as a button, but not much going on other than that. Her zing was one of the best the bot came up with in a while. HOUSE PET JAMES – Just keep him fed, let him run around, maybe even put up with its silly pranks every now and then, and he’ll keep wagging his tail. CHIHUAHUA NATALIE - Not the brightest dogs in the world; tough to train or teach them tricks, but could be nice lap dogs as long as their size-related insecurity issues don’t have them yapping away and nipping at your heels. STRAY DOG COREY – Like all strays, don’t know where they came from; not sure where they’re going. They have street savvy so if pushed they can give you a fight (or an occasional comp win as it relates to BB) but not a threat to make a relevant impact at the end of the day. PET DANDER BIG MESS – All too often homeowners do not properly address this problem figuring they can “deal with it later” or maybe even the dander will just go away. This is what allows casting debacles like Big Mess to survive longer in the game. In Michelle’s defense, it’s not so much the pet’s fault the dander infests the House as much as the inhabitants allowing it to linger. TIME TO BE PUT TO SLEEP PAULIE – Entered the House as a pit bull; left the House crying like a bitch. If Papa Calafiore has any more sons at home he should be sitting on the porch with a shotgun to point at any CBS limo that would dare to pull up on his driveway.

1. "RE: Week #8 List" |
I should wait until after tonight's episode to do this, or even after Sunday's episode, but because I think tonite will be trivial fluff and because Sunday's too far away, I'll lay it all out for you this morning.Here we go. Except, theme...hmmm...what theme to use...I know, I'll rate them all in terms of whether or not they displease the King. Me. Your boy. We are Amused (the royal we) Meech. Except for that cobbled together ensemble she wore in the last eviction ceremony (A blue dress with back strap of bra showing and with blue jean cut-offs underneath - did this ceremony announcement catch her with no clean panties?), she has been looking pretty good lately. One of the things that I find interesting about BB is the way the show contrasts how the hamsters act in differing, usually opposite situations. And Meech is indeed a contrast. She is crying and pitiful and no media darling when she feels like she is on the outs socially with the others and put up on the block, but she can be witty, pretty, interesting, as well as the right hand of a vengeful god when she is safe. This week she was safe, and her actions pleased us. I can't really figure out her game play, but at F2 with the way the jury is building she would get a lot of votes and probably win against most of the remaining hamsters, Natalie excepted. Natalie We are much amused by Natalie. We would go so far as to say we would like to plant royal kisses on those brown sun baked buns. What a smile, what a rosy disposition, and what backbone. What a girl. I'd place all my winnings from Michel on her against anyone if she were to end up at F2. Victor. We are amused by the challenge prowess of Victor. He seems like a nice guy, and his nominations, although influenced by others, show some game savvy. He may not get Paulie's vote, but otherwise he's not polarizing and that will help him get votes if he ends up at F2. James. We are amused by the ravenous little horndog. This season his quest for love has paid off with the ever enticing Natalie, and as a result he's able to shift a little focus onto his game. It's a little off because he's focusing for two, so we'll see if this pays off for him. But what amused us most was his little bulldog stance against Paulie. Just a honest straight foreword announcement that he was going with his girl, not with the bully. The little prankster amuses us very much. We are not pleased, but not overly displeased either. Paul. He's evolved as the superior player this season. So grudgingly he doesn't displease us. But as long as he wears that inflatable rubber ducky he will not ascend into the upper realm of us amusingness. We are not especially amused by Paul's trademark antics, hereafter referred to as his shtick. Silly, over the top, not amusing, terrible example to imitate (Paulie, you listening?) but at least it is original with him. We're amused that he gets into the role as secret service agent with gusto. Nicole. We are not pleased with her pouts and apparent lack of game play. She's in a minority and apparently has no wish to help herself out of her predicament. But she is the cutest crossing guard we've ever seen, so she does amuse us a little. Corey. We derive no amusement from the sleeping giant. But we award him the honor of not displeasing us because of his "Buck up and suck it up" speech to Paulie. It was because of that (I assume) that Paulie didn't go out on a more sour note that he did. We are not amused. Off with his head.
Paulie. The same observation made about reactions to situational contrasts made for Meech also goes for Paulie. In a negative way. When he was safe he swaggered with confidence and seemed to think he could get people to do his bidding, but when he was in the hot seat because of his overbearing attitude, he became a weenie, a sobbing self pitying weenie. And that displeased us very much. We were pleased to send him to the Guillotine. Then we were even more unamused by his display of affection for the Chinbot. Admittedly she almost dropped her cooter card, and it would have been royally amusing to watch as the giant body guards her husband employs to protect her, dropped him to the floor. But that didn't happen, so there was nothing there to amuse us. Finally we are extremely displeased by hamsters who lack originality and rip off other hamsters. He's been copying Paul's shtick all season, capped off when he referred to himself as "Your Boy". The real kicker is that Paul's shtick is also unamusing, and a braindead choice for a model. But that's Paul, braindead. Might as well chop off a useless appendage. .

Coincidentally, after reading your post I was on the fence for going a dog theme, such as "Best in show", "Won't stop humping my Aunt" and "Sucks dog Truds".

4. "My List" |
Yeah! an early list. Or should I say: Woof! woof!My list will be simple, going from Top Contender to Least Likely. Top of the Heap 1- Paul: He started in the wrong alliance but his moves have brought him to a great position. I think he'd even get Paulie and Corey's votes in the end. The game is simple: Work with everyone, don't offend anyone, don't win too many comps and get close to every HoH to influence their nominations. Paul has done it as well as anyone in the history of this game but the job isn't finished. He could get complacent. He's already going overboard with his schtick but the Houseguests seem to enjoy it. 2- Michelle: The only opinions that matter are the jurors' and they were unanimously impressed by Michelle's speech. No, it wasn't because she was a woman, (they said nothing about Nat or Nicole) it was because she said exactly what they wanted to hear and that is the most important factor for the final vote. Paulie, as far as I know, isn't a girl and he called Michelle the manipulator. Even Julie said she was "instrumental in changing the course of the game." Aruba sees fleas but the truth is that she's doing exactly what she needs to do to have a shot. Also, I really liked the way she embraced her zing. 3- Victor: From what we saw, Victor didn't gloat too much in front of Paulie and Corey, leaving most of it for the DR. That means he could get their votes in the end but I don't think he'd stand a chance over Paul who not only masterminded the whole game but also has been in the House all along. The canyon that separates Victor and Paul was evidenced when Victor said to Paul: "You are my wole social game." 4- James: He still isn't very good at the social game but he's better than most in this house. I liked seeing him standing up for Natalie. He did however make a huge mistake in his social strategy: Taking the $5K and forcing Victor to take the veto from Paulie is something that won't be forgotten. A good social player would have said something like: "Victor, you won the comp so I'll take the veto from Paulie and you can take the money." 5- Natalie: She showed some spunk when she confronted Paulie and then showed empathy when he realized he was doomed. She has some very endearing qualities but none of them involve strategy. 6- Nicole: Let me get this straight: Corey consulted the 4 other guys when he won HoH and later the veto, he didn't even ask for Nicole's opinion and she STILL didn't know the guys had a thing going. It took the argument between those 5 guys after Victor's nominations to turn that switch in her head. I mean, how blind can she be? Worse is that she was a poor sport during Zingbot's roast. It hurt because it was true but she still should have laughed it off. 7- Corey: I still can't get over his nominations last week. James had to be his target but he went after Bridgette instead. If James had left, I'm not sure that Paul (and Victor) would have risked going after Paulie because they wouldn't have been so tight with the 3 women. 8- Paulie: I'm not putting him in the evicted category because he could very well be coming back into the House. That is a disgusting twist, no matter who returns. Imagine, it could even be Victor if he gets the boot this week. With that twist on the horizon, I really wish that the rats had let Paulie quit. What we saw was just a fraction of Paulie's childish tantrum. Feedsters said he had to be called numerous times to the DR and that he even brought up an aunt that has cancer as a reason to avoid Jury house. Paulie started the week by saying he would play the veto on Corey and then he winds up taking it away from him. Not only did it show his selfishness but it was extremely bad strategy. Had he kept the unitard and left the veto to Corey, I'm thinking Victor woud have gone for James' $5K instead. Corey would have saved himself, Victor would have needed to make a replacement nomination and maybe, just maybe, James would have been so pissed at losing the $5K that he would have become Victor's target. At least, it would have created tension within the new alliance and given Nicorey a shot later on. Da, Zak, Bridgette: They all still have a shot but even if I'd prefer seeing Bridgette return, none of them deserve to win.

6. "RE: My List" |
LAST EDITED ON 08-20-16 AT 04:04 PM (EST)Toward the end of the season Aruba, you, and I, (hereafter known as the "Titanic Three" (? - Don't we deserve a name too? Unless anybody else wants to join our friendly fraternité?) we always seem to drift toward common conclusions. But we also always have a few minor points that we see differently. A perfect example is Paul. We all see him as having played the best game to date. But his shtick (alt. schtick) amuses you and definitely doesn't amuse me. And that inflatable duck is a personal irritation for me, and not so much for you. And I am not inclined to think that it helps his game. The only possible motive (aside from just being in his character, ugh!) is that win or lose, he is on the list of possible returnees, get his own blog, or to be a guest commentator on future shows. Or whatever. It fits with his game strategy of always hedging his bets. As to James - Michel is slowly coming around to the dark side but is not quite there yet. Close enough though that I think we are in virtual agreement, but, however as minor as it is, there is at least one point left to discuss. "Taking the $5K and forcing Victor to take the veto from Paulie is something that won't be forgotten." Debatable. But allowing Victor to take the 5K is something that will be forgotten. That's just human nature. Fast forward a few days and all that will remain in Victor's consciousness is that he has 5K, not that it was due to James' generosity (or game play, or whatever). James could remind him of it, say during his eviction ceremony at which time 500K would be on the line. Victor would/should/surely will not let feelings of gratitude for 5K allow him to lose sight of the real goal. Wagers; I'll accept your recokoning. Which puts me at -4 Alpha Centauri Centavos. I can't accept your proposal, the odds aren't adequate to take into account that there are 7 rodents still in the nest. I would accept bets at the following odds: 9 to 1 (your 9 to my 1) I take pot if Natalie wins 1 to 9 (your 1 to my 9) You take pot if Paul wins. I would accept another bet at the following odds: 4 to 3 (your 4 to my 3) I take pot if a woman wins, you take pot if a man wins. We may have sums left to wager with next season, so put those Centavos (if you end up winning some) aside, they may come in handy. Late addition to my list: Cut off his head, put him in the deepest dungeon, then shoot him a few times; Jessie Please. I can't think of a less desirable prize that a ticket to see him wrestling. So wrong on so many levels. (I've already lowered Meech on next week's list for her reaction to his introduction). .

7. "RE: My List" |
I like the name "Titanic Three" for our alliance! (see, that's part of my social strategy: In accepting your alliance offer and the name you've suggested, I let you think that I'm following your lead but I'm already planning to blindside you! )Yes, we tend asymptotically towards the same players but that's partly because there are less of them to draw arguments. And no matter how few there are in the House, I doubt that Aruba will ever cheer for Michelle!! I don't enjoy Paul's schtick and, like you, I see it mostly as a way to get a return invitation. But I can see a game value in it. I say James made an error because we saw that it irritated Victor. James' alliance with Paul (and Victor) is still fragile so why take any risks. Having already won $5K is also a source of envy and it could in itself send James out the door. As for the wager, how about this: I pick Michelle and/or Paul, you pick Natalie and/or someone else. James maybe? The loser will have to "wear" a siggie saying either "Michel is the Best" or "Kingfish is the Bass"...I mean the "Best" for a month. If neither wins well we won't have to tell anyone that we are both losers. BTW, I didn't see Friday's episode yet and knowing Jessie makes an appearance isn't a good selling point. But I figure that Michelle and the other hamsters were told to cheer loudly at the dumbass' entrance.

Since we're betting Centari Centavos instead of the more desirable Wabash Watloos I'll take your bet (with Nat or James), and you are a Swiss coward for not taking my bet. And since you explained your strategy to me, I'll tell Aruba what you said about his woman. Then we'll have a little something sent to you in the jury house. BTW, don't worry about those ordinary looking cardboard boxes lying around.

Yes I predict Paul and a Returnee, but that returnee does not have to be Victor because one of the first five jurors will be returning to the game.

LAST EDITED ON 08-21-16 AT 09:48 PM (EST)Yeah, that's what I meant, one of the second round of returnees. It has to be a single choice, even if it's undetermined right now. Not a bad choice either, depending on who goes this week, 4 of 5 of the candidates might be desirable as an F2 goat. 2 at least.

You can apply your >patented spin all you wish >but those three jurors we >saw this past week in >the Jury House will NOT >vote for a male unless >we have an all-male F2. First of all; why would they vote for a man? The guys used them and then betrayed them, trying to make it an all-male F5. If one woman manages to make it to the end, it will be an outstanding feat in the jury's (and the viewers) eyes. Secondly and despite this, if that woman happens to be Nicole, I don't think she'd get their vote. >I’m not surprised those three jurors >joined many of the viewers >enjoying the crybaby sour grapes >antics of Big Mess. Jerry >Springer was a very highly >rated show in its heyday >for the same reason. Many >viewers ate up that TV >trash like a hungry dog >devouring a T-bone steak. (Still >keeping with my weekly theme >HaHa.) I never watched Springer because it exploited family drama in a very gross manner. Likewise, I didn't like seeing all those tears from Michelle (or Vanessa last season for that matter) but we are talking about something different here: A player who saw the BS that Paulie and Nicole were dishing out and calling them out on it. If you remember, Michelle shed no tears during her speech. It was what we Franch call a "baroud d'honneur" which is a colorful way of saying a gallant last stand. Anyway, why are you singling out Big Meech? When she called Nicole a snake, she echoed the words of 3 other players including your beloved Frank. And when she laid it in on Paulie she was joined by Paul, Victor, Natalie and James as soon as they had him cornered. Even if I enjoy most of his game, Paul's denials were particularly embarrassing. A brave man would have told Paulie that he knew in advance that the game had turned and that PP was over. >Your keen eye/ear appropriately criticized Julie >on DE Night when she >told us how “Nicole was >kept in the dark,” and >within seconds Nicole announces before >her vote how she knew >Bridgette was the primary target. >Now, not surprisingly, that same >“keen eye/ear” needs a corrective >lense/hearing aid hanging your hat >on the same Chenbot stating >how Michelle was “instrumental…Yadda, Yadda, >Yadda…” when it conveniently serves >your OWN purpose. LOL I was glad to hear Julie being contradicted because I hate reality TV's unreality. How often have we been sold a "gigantic blindside" only to find out that the player knew he was getting voted out? Even John's epic "blindside" in Survivor Marquesas was a lie because he had been told how the vote was going to unfold. With the Live Feeds it's harder to edit a false blindside on BB but with the blackout before DE night, they tried to sell one but got egg on their face instead! In trying to find a contradiction in my reasoning, you are forgetting one very important detail: In the first example, Julie was contradicted by a player. In the second, Julie said exactly the same thing that Da, Zak, Bridgette and Paulie had said about Michelle's role. If you remember, last week, you refused to give an ounce of credit to Big Meech for changing the game when I was saying she played a part. The players and Julie agree with me so you have nothing to say but step in line! >As for James taking the 5K, >he’ll play the Parent Card >to make that decision a >non-factor.

Are you trying to play Nostradamus? You may try to read Victor's mind but I prefer to listen to his words. In the DR, Victor expressed his irritation at James' action. Maybe the $5K won't hurt James but I say that it's preferable to keep your eyes on the final goal which is the #500K.

22. "RE: My List" |
LAST EDITED ON 08-21-16 AT 05:12 PM (EST)Paulie's eviction had nothing to do with your fable ADS. It was simply because Paul couldn't trust him anymore. If Paulie hadn't been such an idot then, yes, the guys had every intentions of sticking together to the F5. You really need to ignore all of his talk of quitting to say that Paulie took the high road. And, Michelle wasn't a "big mess" on what she thought was her eviction night. I'm not sure how to respond to the comment about Julie. Are you saying that she never tells the truth? Like Darrah said all these years ago about Fairplay: "Jon's a snake, yeah, and he lies. But he also tells the truth, too." The Nostradamus comment comes from your certainty that James will not pay for his dumb act. The reading mind comment comes from your assesment that, despite his words, Victor was happy to take the veto. I've already put James in the "good" category but that's simply because we have a bunch of idiots in the House. In a season with just average players, James would have been evicted on Double Eviction night after blatantly betraying the Executives' alliance.

23. "RE: My List" |
You are apparently more fixated on Paulie’s eviction than I am. What I said is a five-man alliance has little chance advancing to the F5 because before only five HGs remain there will be targeting of a strong competitor. I stand by that assessment despite Paulie’s eviction.I am not disputing Paulie was beating himself up pretty bad when he realized he was a goner, but IN THE END he did not spew his venom at others on Eviction Night as a sour grape name-calling bellyacher. Being a name-caller and a whiner poor gamesman IS being a “big mess” IMO. What I’m saying with Julie is you will pick and choose when you want to regard her words as truth or not primarily to support your opinions. My claim that James will likely get a pass and not have to answer for taking the money is based on past history when HGs have said the money would be for their child. No fortune telling needed for that. If Corey had the compliment of a normal BB week it’s quite possible James would have been much more vulnerable. But needing to make his nominations minutes after winning HOH, I will not criticize him for keeping the game plan his alliance had in motion before the fast forward. I do not recall James playing in the DE POV comp. If my memory is correct you cannot say he would have been evicted because by participating in that POV he could have won instead of Corey and taken himself off the block. What we do agree on is the bevy of idiots incompetent Production casts each season. I guess the same “idiots” allowing James to make the F7 also allows an emotional wreck like Big Mess to linger to the same point of the season as well.

From what we heard, the 5 guys had every intention of going to the end together before Paulie lost Paul's trust by trying to save Zak. Would they have turned on each other? We have no way of knowing for sure but what really counts for our discussion is that the first three jurors thought the 5 guy alliance was unbreakable so they were very impressed by Big Meech's actions. >I am not disputing Paulie was >beating himself up pretty bad >when he realized he was >a goner, but IN THE >END he did not spew >his venom at others on >Eviction Night as a sour >grape name-calling bellyacher.

I don't think it's too hard to understand: When Julie tries to sell us BS, I call her out. When she is right, I use her words. But why do you fixate on Julie? There were 4 other people who said the same thing and all 4 are now on the jury!

The casting department isn't concerned about the intellect of the players because the game is very simple. They aren't aiming for America's next Genius, they are simply casting characters that will draw us in to get good ratings. Since you are still watching, they've done a good job. I think the blame goes more to the people who designed the game and its twists. I don't think we'd be in this mess if they didn't start with the team concept and if they hadn't sent Victor back in the game. James did more to lose his allies' trust than Michelle so I would have targeted him first. That's why I feel he is lucky to still be around and even in power via Natalie's HoH.

No. here I go referring to past history again. In 32 seasons of Survivor and 17 seasons of Big Brother we have NEVER had an all-male F5. So to even presume we would this season is ludicrous. There’s a reason for that...before we get to the F5 the power players and major threat(s) will be targeted, i.e. Anti-Darwin Syndrome. Like DUHHHHH, of course the three female jurors would be “impressed” by female Big Mess. LMAO. >I hope you realized you spoke >too early when they went >back to show what Paulie >said before his eviction. >He threw Victor and James >under the bus.
Campaigning to try to save yourself is far different than standing up on Eviction Night (when you believe you’ve lost) and being a sore-losing name-calling sour grapes crybaby. >I don't think it's too hard >to understand...When she is right, I >use her words.
You’re right, it’s not hard to understand. You’ll say Julie is “right” when it conveniently serves your purpose.
>I do remember that some hamsters >were very envious of someone >who went for cash. >This time we all heard >Victor's indignation.
Not when the hamster made the others believe it was for their child. And even when they didn’t have a child, Boogie not only swiped 5K, he also had a Caribbean vacation, a plasma TV, AND a brand new car waiting for him BEFORE the vote for the championship...and who was crowned the winner of BB All-Stars? What I did hear was Victor’s recent DR confession when he announced the EXACT COUNT of how many comps he won (8.) Don’t tell ME he’s not secretly enjoying his wins. >I don't think >we'd be in this mess >if they didn't start with >the team concept
HA, if not for the “team concept” Category-4 would not have carried Big Mess as far as she got. Big Mess is Spenser without a beard and Victoria without hair extensions.

1- While I know we've never seen an alliance of 5 men making it to the end, how often have we seen an alliance of 5 men? Many Survivor tribes only had 4 men at the start so how could they make it a Final 5?! This time, we did have a viable F5 alliance as late as Final 9 and it wasn't ADS that broke it up but Paulie's bad game play. Had Paulie given in to Paul's wishes and simply booted Zak, they may still be together.2- Paulie wasn't campaingning to save himself, he said he wanted them to go after James and Victor AFTER he left. 3- I say Julie is right when events prove that she is right. 4- Again, Boogie won because Dr. Will wanted to give his friend a win. Have you forgotten Survivor's car curse? $5K isn't worth a new car but the same envy could be at work. If I'm playing the game, I would have no sympathy for someone because he has children. That would be extremely bad game play. 5- Nostrarubus strikes again. We have no idea how things would have worked out without teams. I'm just saying that the game would have been more dynamic. If that meant Michelle would have been evicted by now, so what? Do you think I care about her? I simply don't share your hatred.
