 I guess I keep forgetting that the rest of the house doesn't know how in bed Vanessa is with the Austwins.

It was very frustrating watching Vanessa be so stupid last night. Why is she not turning on Austin and the twins? I think she realizes that she's on the bottom of their totem pole, so if she gets James or Meg out how does she think this will help her get to the final two? If she is aiming for fourth place she is doing a swell job.

I think she realizes that, but she is unwilling to make that move.  She is hoping that Steve, JMac or James makes that move.  She is worried about jury votes.  But she needs to get to final 2 first to worry about that.  If she is indeed left with Austin and the twins, they will evict her.  They can't think they have played a better game than her.  Maybe Austin, but he is delusional.

Ha, yes only Austin is delusional enough to think that he could beat Vanessa. I think the jury might be bitter towards Vanessa, but given the crappy games everyone else has played there's no way she would lose to anyone at final two. 

She thinks she redrew the lines because she has Johnny Mac and Steve on her side? What good are they? Steve can't win a physical comp to save his life and Austin and the twins hate John with a passion and will do what they can to get him out. This sends her right back to fourth place. I feel like this is one of the last good weeks to have the numbers to get one of the twins out. Removing Liz or even Julia would really level the playing field in the whole house.

I will be praying to the BB gods for a miracle that saves Meg and James this week.

And isn't this week another double eviction? I really want to see one of those twins go!

The BB Gods may be listening, Erik.

Everything you said is exactly what I was saying throughout the episode last night.  I can't for the life of me figure out why ANYONE would be hitched to Austin and the twins at this point in the game.  The one that should REALLY be targeted is Liz because she has the tightest bond between them both.  And you follow that up with Julia reminding her that Austin was planning to get rid of Julia to have her on the jury so he and Liz could end up in the final together.  Drum THAT in her head and watch her flip on Austin.  And breaking up that threesome will at least level the playing field a bit.  Otherwise, everyone else is reducing their odds of winning.

 

Backdoor Liz.  Other than Austin and Julia, who WOULDN'T vote her out?  If someone needs Austin or Julia with them at the end in an effort to increase their odds of winning (probably Meg or Steve's only shot at winning), that's understandable, but keeping that threesome together now is a HUGE mistake.

These are collectively the stupidest group of houseguests in BB history. This will be the perfect opportunity for her to backdoor one of the twins, but she won't do it.

I don't think it's sunk quite to BB 9 or BB 15 levels of ick, but it's certainly heading that way.

Don't be so sure, SOMMS.

I'm sure. Wrong twin.

GAWD.  This is the most moronic group I've seen on the show yet.  Why are they all handing the game to the Austwins?  Now, the Austwins have a 50% shot at HOH and a 50% shot at POV.  The only chance I can see is if the other three hope to win HOH and POV so they could get just ONE of the Austwins out.  And given the gameplay this season, it seems highly unlikely.  At this point, Liz has to be the odds-on favorite to win.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Posted: 9/4/15 at 10:12am

They are so ridiculous.  I can't believe they didn't take the chance to vote out Julia.  I think you could be right about the Austwins making it to the end, but I wouldn't count out Vanessa, either.  She's made it this far.  I can see her somehow getting all the way to the end and if she does, she deserves to beat everyone because they squandered every opportunity that they had to get her out. 

[Mister Matt]

Posted: 9/4/15 at 10:35am

Vanessa would have to win the last 2 HOH comps and though it's not impossible, it's just so highly unlikely.  UNLESS they somehow talk Liz into dropping Austin.  But there is really no compelling argument to do so.  Austin is pretty much least likely to win and he can only come in 2nd if he wins the final HOH.  If Vanessa makes it to the end, she would be the clear winner.  Her biggest competition is John, mainly because he's so likable.

Although even if Vanessa makes it to final two, this jury might vote against her out of bitterness. 

[Mister Matt]

Posted: 9/4/15 at 12:14pm

Perhaps, but BB usually rewards strategy over personal bitterness (unlike Survivor).  The one glaring exception I can remember was when Maggie won.  How the jury may take Vanessa is tough to pick, though.  Her tactics of bullying, blackmail and ultimatums could be her undoing if she makes it to the final 2.  But if Boogie and Evel Dick could win, Vanessa should be able to breeze through it.

I needed to get drunk after last nights episode. And then I started angry tweeting about Big Brother. Not my finest moment.

 I find everyone left in the house so annoying that I would say that I'm not going to watch this rest of the season, but I know I say that every year and end up watching anyway. But this year I'll be hate watching!

I HATE it when this happens. There's always one season where all the despicable people are left in the house and you don't care who wins. I have to keep watching because Big Brother is my favorite show ever, although BB Canada is far surpassing the US version. Everyone left in the house are idiots that are all playing for 6th, 5th and 4th place because Austwins are obviously going to be the final three unless Vanessa has some magic up her sleeve.

Anybody catch last night's episode?  When Steve mentioned Freud and the twins thought he was talking about Siegfried & Roy.  Priceless.

Yes!!! That moment was pure comedy gold. I had to pause the dvr because I just couldn't stop laugh. God, they are so stupid! 

 

It was a surprisingly satisfying episode. I just hate the twins so much, so watching them *hopefully* get what's coming to them is beautiful. Liz saying, "Steve putting us up just doesn't make sense," was hilariously self-centered. It makes sense for him- you do realize these people didn't enter the house to try to win you the money, right?

 

I'm so glad Vanessa didn't win HOH; I'm sure she would have gone through with putting up Austin and Liz, but there would have been to much drama and crying. 

 

The twins are just nasty, vicious mean girls and I want to see them sent packing.

I love how she had to cry herself a river upon getting nominated but mocked others that were upset - even though they showed more backbone.  I would really love it if BOTH twins ended up on the block.  

[ArtMan]

Something interesting I just found out.  Liz also has a boyfriend whom she hasn't broken up with.  Not only is she a "mean girl" but a cheater also.

[dramamama611]

Well, they might be broken up now.  I'm sure HE'S watching.
