Because a unanimous black alliance is worse then a unanimous white alliance!!!!!

Last year was the first season since at least BB 15 where there wasn't a POC in the original major alliance.

And if there was ever an original all white alliance that was formed with the stated sole purpose of making sure that they were able to vote out only POCs so that only white folks made it to final 6, and called the plan the "Master Plan", all hell would break loose on and off the air.

X a worthy winner


Yes. X was never in danger the whole season and won comps seemingly at will. He didn’t have to scheme much but overall played solid.

Woke season, hope it doesn't happen again. I also don't think it's equal to only put 1 hispanic and 1 Asian and 6 blacks.

No fricking way Tiffany won AFP.


If you are questioning the count I think Tiff most likely did win and likely by a lot. If you had asked me over the last few days to bet on it Tiffany would have been my only bet. There were a lot of former players (Janelle stands out) stanning for her as well as current players like Whitney. You could easily see it across the BB Twitterverse and on Jokers. While I would have voted for DX I can't be bothered to vote and I think a lot of people that would have voted for DX are like me and simply don't vote.

Thoughts on Finale night? Happy it’s coming to an end? Can’t wait to see Tiffany win AFP? It’s both for me.

I haven’t watched BB since maybe season 3 but I have always been a big fan of Survivor. All the talk of the segregationists on BB got me thinking of how Survivor has had “all women” alliances a few times but they’ve only worked once or twice. I think the producers changed the types of contestants and some gameplay elements to stop it. The women are less eye candy and more likely to want to be seen as equals to the men. The producers also introduced more ways for contestants to get immunity so alliances have to turn on each other if their target has a secret immunity.

If the ratings were down because of the segregation, the producers will make changes. If ratings weren’t down, expect more of the same although it’s really hard to pull off an alliance that sticks together.

For all the caution about the stupid arse “air hugs” all season by Julie Chen, she was right in the middle of all the celebration last night standing side-by-side with the contestants.

CBS is horrible for turning this show into a political social pile of shite.

Some people are freaking out that that the cookout will break the game, but it will actually help the game grow with diversity. The game having a fully ethnic alliance form And win happen will create some fun times for future games



Yeah dude. totally. For surrreeeee.

Next season when all the white people look around and go "i mean guys....we have to assume they are going to coming for us...we saw it happen and work. Of course they are. The only way to survive is to make a white alliance. I dont want to, but we have to"

GREAT FOR GAMEPLAY. BALKANIZE BIG BROTHER! frickING RACE WAR!

what the producers will do is even further frick with the ratios. They will take the white population which accounts for roughly 70% of the US and give them MAYBE 40% of the house.

Ironically, in last night's episode the women in the losing tribe teamed up to vote out a man. Though I don't think those 3 women have long term alliance goals.

Only way it’s not is they get a bunch of submissive white people and then let POC (the right color, wink wink) run their game.

Say what you will about this season, but X just about played a perfect game. I think had he been in any other season, he'd still have had a good chance at winning.

It really puts into perspective just how awful this season was in comparison. Even season 9 where Adam wins at least had drama despite the terrible gameplay


Season 22 wasn't great because the cast of returners was very meh, and the one interesting one was Tyler who was pressured/caved to throwing away his game on some BS. This season had an amazing cast, but after week 2 or so there was little to no game play. There was no drama, no flips, no fights, no betrayals, nothing.

Ratings have fallen every year. Maybe the woke crowd gave them a bump, but the problem with the woke crowd is they have the attention span of a goldfish.


Hamsterwatch or one of them retweeted someone last week that tracks ratings and this is the lowest watched BB in like the last 5 years of data by far, after last year being the lowest. They upped the prize money and got lower ratings, that isn't good for the show going forward.

I only started watching regularly in season 16, but have gone and rewatched older seasons, and I love the game and concept behind it, but this is the first time a finale has happened and I haven't thought "damn I can't wait for next summer."

X deserved to win and seems like a genuinely good dude. Only hold up is he never had to scheme and play BB. He was never in danger, and never was in danger of one of his allies being evicted. He had the potential to be great on a regular season, but we will never know.

Actually Julie said it was very close, but I do agree that that they rigged the count. But with that said, I was still a little shocked that DX didn't win. BB Reddit seemed to be heavily in his favor.
