Well no shite but it's still a fix. The negative of pandoras box has never been a direct effect on the strategy of the game like this. Pandoras box is always some major annoyance that the house or the opener has to deal with. This was not a "negative for the house" it was a gift to j & r. fricking bullshite IMO. BB wants Jordan to win this so fricking bad it's laughable.

That's why Porsche opened it b/c she thought the backlash from the house for unleashing something annoying for 24 hours was worth the 5gs.

BB has effectively removed pandoras box from any future game b/c there's no way in hell anyone will or should open it.

I think they know their ratings will fall completely off if rachel and jordan go away. especially rachel

I think they just want rachel in the final 3 hoh

I don't like the whole "bring back the duos" thing either. It really does seem kind of rigged. Just like bringing Brendon back.

That said, Adam and shelly are completely worthless in challenges.Whether it's physical,mental or simple concentration, they are worthless. 4 1/2 minutes? gimme a break ! As a man the day kalia hangs onto a dummy suspended in the air longer than you do, it's time to just vote yourself out.

I don't like the way it got to this point but, i'm glad it did. Shelly and Adam need to go, they have done nothing all season. I honestly don't think anyone left deserves to win except for rachel. As hard is it is for me to say that. I hate everything about her but, she has managed to get to the final 5 when everyone wanted her out from the beginning.

I just can't credit her for this because BB pulled her arse out of the fire TWICE. they basically made her HOH this week with the combination of the duo twist and a veto challenge that was Taylor made for her. I mean it was the EXACT same challenge that she had already dominated. that plus bringing Brendan back when she was slated to go home that week.

she's still there but this season is heavily weighted to the vets which is why once again this is a shitty season. though I watch every single episode.

I just disagree.

If it was rigged for anyone this week it was Jordan. Rachel would have won the veto anyway this week and she would have been safe. Jordan was only saved because of Rachel and the duos. Rachel would have been safe anyways.

That's exactly what I said when I saw it. But, of course I said the same thing for the Q and A competition before kalia won her second hoh.

I'll say this, if shelly or adam win this, i will skip next season.

The vets, for all of their "experience" played a terrible game. They turned on each other too early and handed the advantage back to the noobs.

I honestly think this whole season would have playe dout diferently had Dick ermained in the house. He is much better at strategy than the other vets. I think him leaving threw a wrench in BB's plans so they started scrambling for ways to "fix it".

Do you guys think america believes LSU has the worst sports apparel due the the clothes Shelly wears on this show. I am very surprised she does not have the LSU hat with the tiger wearing and LSU hat.

I'm pretty sure Jordan has that one or had it during her HoH week. She wore it on the show.

Ya but honestly, the best competitor usually never wins BB.

BB is 75% social 25% competitions.

And really you have to be no better than slightly better than average at competitions or the target on your back will just be too big....ex: jeff/brendan/dani

Shelly has made up for her horrible competitions by her complete and total manipulation of EVERYONE in that house. No doubt she got where she is in real life that way. Definitely wasn't on her looks.

I agree with all of this. I think shelly is actually playing a great game. Adam on the other hand is just awful.

julie's interview was shite. it was a good move if it weren't for the bullshite pandoras box. she would have a final three deal with a weaker threesome if they hadn't made Rachel the defacto HOH.

ETA: so the pandoras box they originally had planned will be next week not the emergency pandoras box they had to do. gotcha.

How is it any different from Jeff's Coup De Tat or whatever a couple years back? I don't think it was a fix so much as it was a consequence and a devastating result. Rachel or Jordan still had to win the veto. It was 4-2. Also, nobody forced Porsche to open it. The newbies have nobody to blame but Porsche. And Shelly has nobody to blame but herself.

hey I'm just having fun watching this season so indulge my conspiracy theory. pandoras box has NEVER been a game changer. it's always been a major annoyance to either the house or the HOH now all of a sudden it's a negative that directly affects the strategy and the veto is Taylor made for Rachel it feels like a fix. all reality tv is fixed IMO.

bottom line regardless of my conspiracy theory is that shelly's move would have been a great one based on the history of the game re: pandoras box. she couldn't have foreseen it at all.

Pandora's box HAS changed the game before. I remember now that Jeff won the Coup De Tat thing from America's vote so that wasn't something.

But JUST last year Matt won the Diamon POV when he was surely going home.

true but the negative has never changed the game though.

the way it has always worked it the HOH gets either a positive or a negative in exchange for the house getting a positive or s negative. porsche's positive was $5g but the negative did not affect j&r at all. THAT is the difference. then on top of that the veto was a carbon copy of the endurance comp that Rachel already dominates and it smells like a fix.

It would have been a great move had it worked. That's what makes a move great.

This game is rachel's to lose now.I don't see either of the other 3 winning this hoh.I'm expecting to tune in sunday and see kalia and adam laying tits up in the donut goo.

The jury house thing was actually pretty lame. They teased it with "the jury house explodes" or something like that. What they don't show is jeff and brendan tag teaming dani in the jury house bedroom.



Oh and, shelly is the manliest woman in p'ville.
