Glad the OGz made it to the end. Feel bad for Bill and Ed. They seem like cool guys. I feel like they got in too late. Other than Joey souring on Seaburn the OGz has each other’s backs.

Anyway I would have spotted the final five in the exact same way that they ended up being spotted. I have no problem with Joey winning. He probably would have been my preference. Shooby was a good guy, but it didn’t really translate in the game the way it translated for Joey who is also a good guy

Do they let them talk nonstop? Would make the game more interesting if they did. Having the catfish have to be in character 24/7 would be very interesting.


It seemed like there were certain times when the Circle was open for chat, and times when it was down, like overnight of course.

I'm sure they chatted a LOT more than we saw, both in groups and in private.

Happy with the way it ended but I would have swapped Sammie and Chris.

Also agree with the new guys not really having a chance. Had Ed been there from the beginning, he’d have made the finale.

He had Rebecca pegged a catfish his first day there

Seabourn also made his worst mistake at the same time though, his reaction to his own booting of Alex/Adam was a horrible play. He went way too over the top with the crying comment. That’s what got the OG to really start to go after him.

His whole handling of Alex/Adam was his downfall.

If they do this again, which they should, they should bring everyone in at once. The newer people never really had a chance to win IMO.

I hate how much I like this show but I can’t help it. Great Finale. Solid season.

SPOILER:





Courtney strategically cock-blocking River out of the 100,000 was hilarious to me.

Chloe finding out Trevor was fake was great.

The entire Lance Bass thing was ridiculously stupid as was giving the two losers a second chance.

Mitch could’ve been a much stronger player if he would’ve had any strategy from the beginning.

The Mannequin challenge killing Jack was hilarious.

River played that game as a catfish maybe better than Seaburn.

This season was much more calculated and strategized than the first season. The first season was more like watching a social experiment with the game as a backdrop and this one was more like an actual game. These seasons could get great as they hone the game in.

Best moment of the Finale for me was when Jack walked up to Delisa (Trevor) and said “Courtney I assume” despite Courtney sitting at the table a foot away.

I know it was 80% for the camera, but a part of me really hopes she had no idea who lance bass was until they all met at the finale and Trevor filled her in.

My favorite part of the season was "Emily's" mannequin makeup disaster.

I wonder if the producers threw that in there specifically to frick him up.

She probably had no idea. She’s a 22 year old airhead from England. I doubt many 20-24 year old people have any idea who the boyband craze members were. They might know the names of the bands but recognizing a face and a name of an individual member?

Boybands were popular for a tight window from like 1995- 2001. She was born in 1999. She would’ve been like 2 or 3 when *NSYNC stopped making music and she would’ve missed the entire boy band craze.

The moment Trevor won the game was when she didn't frick up naming the 96 bulls. She got lucky there.

Definitely. They did an interview with Delisa and she talked about how her and Trevor made an entire notebook full of info and trivia and they had the Bulls players in there.

There was a challenge aimed at each catfish. The producers may have even told all the players to study trivia and work on their makeup skills before the show started. The production of the show is top notch

I watched it and I HATED Savanah & Courtney.

Also, Twitter is all over him because he only targeted black women apparently.

That dude is such a punk so I say cancel him

Courtney Sucked. Chris was a much better version of that character.

River played the game perfectly he just chose the wrong ally. Courtney almost certainly single handedly cost him 100,000.

Trevor must’ve had a bunch of conversations we didn’t see because I didn’t think he would win without Mitch and he had a few high ratings that didn’t make sense other than she must’ve just been chatting 24/7 with everyone and we just didn’t get to see it. Which is a great strategy. Someone is always eliminated or ranked low in both seasons because “I never made a connection with that player” no one said that about Trevor.

Chloe was borderline brain dead but entertaining to watch try to figure out basic ideas .

Mitch was like another Joey. He was entertaining and if he’d had been there from the very beginning he might have won.

Savannah and Terilisha were both annoying shallow drama queens and they were still salty and whining at the finale.

Jack and Lisa (Emily/Lance/John) just never did anything worth mentioning.

I liked the gameplay and strategy of Season 2 better but I liked the players in season 1 better.

This 2nd season was so hard to watch and I stopped after a few episodes. The gf loves it but it drags along so much. No idea how I watched season 1.
