Big Brother

[fung_derf]

I think Turner would vote to get Monty out. He has already shown a willingness to switch sides when it helps him.
I think in the house, Monty is considered the bigger threat than Turner.
You're right though, if Monty can't compete next week he's screwed.
Between Taylor, Alyssa and Brittany, who do you think deserves it most?

[Susie924]

Monty will get the credit for getting Michael out even though Turner was HoH but other than that I don’t see him doing all that much. In the beginning I had high hopes for him but he was a disappointment.

He says he wants to keep Turner so that he has a shield. I guess that is a smart move if he can’t compete in the next HoH. If he can compete he should have put Turner up.

[Susie924]

It’s not political to me. I consider myself liberal and I don’t agree with what happened to Kyle.

[fung_derf]

So, are you respecting Monty yet?
Of course, he screwed up yesterday by not putting up Turner. What benefit to keeping him around now?
If the jury is to vote based on anger and revenge, at this point it doesn't matter what you do. I think too often, they believe the jury will judge you on integrity and keeping your word, where, after all these years, game play is most important. Michael screwed up by not getting rid of Turner. Now, Monty is screwing up.
My prediction is very soon you will see 3 women left. Although, Alyssa seems to have no game plan at all, since making out with Kyle isn't an option any more.

[fung_derf]

It is the liberal views vs the conservative views.

[Susie924]

How is that political?

[fung_derf]

and you wonder why I don't want to get into political discussions.....this world is so screwed up. I stay in my own bubble.

[fung_derf]

Right.
I feel for Kyle. The guy handled the heat like a champ.
Funny though, when talk of a all girls alliance is discussed, no one is up in arms.

[Susie924]

I'd really like someone to explain this to me

I can’t.

Taylor also said she couldn’t send another black woman home so there’s that.

[fung_derf]

Yeah it is. I still can't figure out what game Terrance thought he was playing. He keeps talking like he had strategies that were influencing the game. He came in 2nd in a competition and screwed up an alliance, by listening to someone else. Guess I'll give him that.
As for Michael, I really thought they'd go after the women this time, but he knew he would be screwed if he didn't win. His trying to play the LGBTQ card at the end was disappointing to say the least. He kept talking about how, as a lawyer, he knew how to stay calm during cross examination, then totally lost it the first time under pressure. Winning the most challenges is nice, but if you don't win the game in the end, who really cares?
On the other note, so we saw the black contestants discussing among themselves that perhaps they should try to do another cookout. So, let me understand this, Kyle merely suggests it and now he is marred for life. Indie totally overreacts and can't even stand to look at Kyle. However, Terrance, then uses this very technique to try to convince Monte and Taylor that he should stay, and it's perfectly fine???
I'd really like someone to explain this to me.

[Susie924]

This is definitely the season of sore losers.

[Susie924]

I agree with you about Michael and Turner being the top 2 but the ONLY reason Monte is 3rd is because the others are so bad!

I would put Taylor 3rd (even though I am not a fan) because she fought from the beginning, she was a target on day one and managed to hang on.

If Turner wins HoH and can’t get Michael out, I think he needs to keep Brittney in. If she goes to the jury, she is a definite vote for Michael.

[fung_derf]

Michael is making a huge misplay. You don't get bonus points for keeping your word. More likely to get points for smart play. Should have gone after Turner. He's screwed anyway, as he teamed up with a very weak partner. He can't afford a single misstep now.
So sick of Terrance telling me "he's my boy"....all game he has talked like he's in control, when in reality, the only thing he has done right is not be a threat in the game to win.
Alyssa is also worthy of being in the finals due to no game play whatsoever.
Winner deservedly should be
Michael
Turner
Monty

[fung_derf]

I think you underestimate Monty. I think he's playing a very good game.
Terrance too often claimed he was controlling things, when in reality, he had no clue what was happening. Also hate anyone who addresses themselves as "your boy".
Alyssa is the only one left who has no game at all, other than her working Kyle. Of course, being cute is a strategy.

[Susie924]

Michael is probably one of the best students of the game.

Brittany is smart but probably wouldn’t have gotten this far without Michael.

I have a love hate feeling about Kyle.

How can you not root for Terrence!

Alyssa is a floater.

Taylor needs to go.

Monte is kind of a nothing. Nice enough guy but nothing outstanding about him.

Turner wins.

[Susie924]

She was very annoying. I would like to see Taylor gone next.

I was disappointed that Joseph got the boot. I thought it would have been Kyle.

[fung_derf]

Gotta admit this season has gotten interesting.
I'd really hate to see Michael go, but he won some challenges he should have thrown.
Terrance actually seems like he may have some game play after all.
Kyle keeps falling into poo and coming out smelling sweet.
Taylor has gone from my most rooting for to, she hasn't a prayer.
This year is pretty much anyone's game.

[fung_derf]

So glad to see hick girl gone.
She was more annoying than salt in your sweet tea!

[fung_derf]

That was sooooo funny at the end. He thought he was a superfan, and now he has totally lost it.
It was HIS fault she went home. Hope they point that out to him

[Susie924]

Poor little Daniel was mad.

Why do all of the players who think they are geniuses cry the hardest when they get blindsided?

[Susie924]

He really does look dumb unless he knows more than we do.

Kyle ended up being the lucky one.

I am really enjoying The Challenge.

[fung_derf]

So, that Daniel guy is supposed to be a superfan, and yet he keeps making the dumbest of decisions. I wonder why he thinks he has the votes to boot Taylor?
For the life of me, I didn't understand why they didn't just throw the comp to the two girls on the block?

[fung_derf]

Problem there is I always wonder about editing. They make some people look good and others look bad. I have to think the ex cop chick would be the one to focus on. She's the other half of the snake that should be removed. Without her, the other side may respond irrationally, but at least they won't have a strategy.
Or, they should put up fake Elvis and country hick girl. Whichever one goes home would be pleasing to me.

[Susie924]

No I haven’t read anything. I find it better if I just watch the shows.

[fung_derf]

That's racist....btw, have you read any of the stuff going on there? Apparently the light skinned blacks and dark skinned are having issues.

[fung_derf]

Guess it didn't compute.

[Susie924]

Why is pooch in twice

I like his eyes?

I didn’t realize I put him in twice. Now I have to see if I can remember how to delete him.

Edit: I see what I did. When I thought I put Taylor in, I used Pooch’s picture instead.

[Susie924]

Don’t you read my posts?

[fung_derf]

did you put all the faces up there? That made things easier. Why is pooch in twice.

[fung_derf]

Well....when some plans work....but that one was a thing of beauty. I hope the old black guy now exposes the woman cop.
BTW, I can see why she's not a cop any more, she's a terrible detective.
Loved the looks of shock on the women folk.
Also, have always found it hilarious when some people talking to Julie try to build themselves up by saying, "of course they had to vote me out, I was the strongest competitor!"......dude! You're sitting outside the house! How good do you really think you are???
Julie might when an Emmy over Probst or Phil if she actually asked some tough questions like, "why did you treat another guest like a total shrew when you had absolutely no evidence??

[Susie924]

*******SPOILER ALERT FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN’T WATCHED********



















I love it when a plan works!

I hate that they don’t show the HoH comp on Thursday night.

[fung_derf]

I posted that message early on in the show. Was very happy to see what may be transpiring after.
I may be developing ones to like after all.
Meanwhile, that Elvis impersonator guy, hope he comes down with Monkey Pox.

[Susie924]

I agree. I hope tonight’s plan works out.

[fung_derf]

ok....meanwhile, I found someone to root for. I'm team Taylor. Never seen someone so ganged up on,

[Susie924]

The only accent I hear is from Indy.

[fung_derf]

Maybe we are watching different shows. Are you watching the Australian version by chance?
If not, watch the show with the sound on and you'll figure it out......or maybe you don't hear accents? Very unbiased of you.

[Susie924]

Haven’t the foggiest idea.

[fung_derf]

Which country girl?? The one who sounds like she's in Li'l Abner.

[Susie924]

BTW, I rarely learn their names until there are about 4 left

All pictures with names in Ibox

[Susie924]

Which country girl?

[fung_derf]

OK, now I'm intrigued. I wanna see this chick hypnotize some people not to vote to boot her out

Brittany Hoopes
Brittany Hoopes
Biography

Name: Brittany Hoopes
Age: 32
Hometown: Austin, Texas.
Current City: Austin, Texas.
Occupation: Hypnotherapist

[fung_derf]

BTW, that country girl's accent cannot be legit! Nowhere outside of HeeHaw have I ever heard anyone talk like her. She probably really has a British accent.

[fung_derf]

I don't like any of them. There are just some I dislike less.
This has gone so far from reality TV now.
I hope Pooch is a better football coach than he is BB player.
BTW, I rarely learn their names until there are about 4 left. Always gotta go Google cast. Posting a pic would make my life so much easier......and isn't this really what IHUB is all about? Making life easier for me.

[Susie924]

I just finally got a chance to watch Sunday's episode. I am glad that Pooch was booted. He was way too full of himself.

This is not exactly the most likeable cast but I still like Nicole and Alyssa isn't too bad.

[fung_derf]

This show seems to have worn out its welcome. For the life of me I can't find anyone who isn't so fake that I would care what happens to them or if they vanished forever.
One piece of credit I'll give to Pooch. He left with coach speak...the only thing he left out was, "we have to compete on all three phases".
These shows have been on for so long that even though Julie says to "expect the unexpected", no matter what they do, it's still the same game and books have already been written on how to win on reality shows.
I remember reading Stephen King's "The Running Man".....we're getting closer to doing it.

[fung_derf]

bah!! All we need is a good alien invasion or atom bomb to bring us all closer.

[Susie924]

How are we ever going to come together as a Country

Sadly I think that ship has sailed.

Way too much damage has been done over the last 7 years.

[fung_derf]

Oh c'mon. I'm not that bad.
Pretty sure you're aware we aren't all sitting around in a big room together. I've even gone so far as to put some people I dislike on ignore, and Voila! You don't see their posts any more.
How are we ever going to come together as a Country if we can't even post together on an off topic mediocre posting website?

[Susie924]

Sorry but I don’t care for one of your guests.

[fung_derf]

My home or yours? Ya know, these discussions would be more on topic on other boards I don't want to mention....
.....but it rhymes with Smirfs smotto.
