Big Brother 12: Episode 17 - Discussion

Brendan plays the game with his heart and not his head. Send him home please, let Matt win the whole thing. Hopefully it's just this season that's boring and not the whole series.

The series is usually interesting. I have to admit I didn't really enjoy last season so much (although I did have fun watching it) while it was on. I guess I started to enjoy last season a lot more because this season is awful and last seaon had "colorful" people. Ronnie, Lydia, Chima, Russell... They were all interesting, there is no one interesting in this cast.

I didn't like last year either, but compared to this year - it was amazing in retrospect. Even though I was not a huge Jeff/Jordan fan, I could at least pull for them to "defeat evil." Right now I am against the ropes trying to figure out a way to like someone just enough to keep watching...

Everyone this season has been playing with their heart and not their head. The only person that seems to have a little bit of strategy is Matt. And even he's not doing so well. If you haven't seen the other seasons I would highly reccommend Seasons 2, 6, and 8 :D

Exactly... Jeff and Jordan were boring, but atleast people rooted for them. Who are people rooting for now Brendon? because his back is against the wall? He is nothing like a Jeff. And who is even evil this season? the entire brigade thing is silly... Enzo just like his name meow meow is a "*****", Lane is just spaced out, Hayden doesn't know what's flying, Ragan and kathy are both so boring, Matt and Britney are the only 2 who somewhat stand out, and I honestly think it's because this cast sucks. No one despises eachother, and it's no 1 group of allainces vs. another. It's the house vs. Brendon and Rachel. It's stupid, they should have gotten cooler people.

I't slike you completely took the words right out of my mouth. You forgot to mention that the whole sabetour idea and how it's probably one of the worst twists Big Brother has ever included. Also how Pandora's Box is just a way to stir up drama and it's also another stupid twist. Also I really had the biggest crush on Jeff like all of America, so I actually like him :D

Jeff and Jordan were boring? They were both hilarious! My 2 favorite things that season were the technotronics fight and Jordan chest bumping Russel!

Besides those 2 incidents, they weren't loud mouths. Jordan was funny because of her lack of knowledge. Jeff just seemed like a cool guy. The difference between a "Brendon" and a "Jeff" is that a "Brendon" is very emotional, lets his feelings run the game and isn't witty, a "Jeff" on the other hand keeps his emotions in check and is witty. He likes to joke around with people, and seems like a fun guy to hang around with. Even though they are/were both underdogs, Jeff is just much more likeable and rootable than Brendon is. Brendon seems like he has no sense of humor, at all!

I also think their so called "other half" counterparts are completely different. I would hands down never really care to see Rachel on another season. That laugh makes me want to throw my remote. Jordan on the other hand was hilarious to watch and my remote stayed neatly on the couch.

True, the girls were also different. Jordan was much more relaxed and calm and Rachel was manic and loud. I guess that fits Brendon because he is such a bore.

I liked last year alot better than this year too. Good thing I didn't buy the live feeds. This episode was a good one though. Didn't expect Brendon to get a pandora box too...

I felt like I was at a funeral watching this episode. It was so quiet and dead without Rachel there, not to mention boring as heck. I hate the new schedule that BB is on this year, whose bright idea was to change the airings to Sunday and Wednesday. It seems to take forever to watch another show, then we get back to back days on Wednesday and Thursday. I liked it better when it was Thursdays, Saturdays & Tuesdays. I am hating everything about the show this year from the scheduled airings, to the cast, to the lame twists which have all been huge duds and useless to the game. Diamond Veto, Pandora's Box and The Saboteur ugh kill me now!

The twists do suck this season. At least the "cliques" last year were interesting. How cliche is it that an "Athlete" guy, ended up with a "Popular" girl? but I digress... Like TeamAyiiia said the scheduling is bad... It was much better Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday!

So what is with the commercials saying Rachel is "back in the House." The latest anti-climatic head fake? Yawn...can't wait for tonight...

Spoiler

She comes back for 24 hours (aka about 20) and basically starts a bunch of fights....

The producers probably realized how ******** lame this cast is without Rachel they probably put her and her extensions back in the house to cause some "drama" I am assuming... Julie Chen also hinted to it when she said you might be going back or something like that when she got evicted!

I just realized that I would prefer watching Natalie again. At least when I was watching last year I had multiple people in the house that ticked me off and I could complain about it all summer. This year all I can complain about it how bored I get watching every episode.

Everyone really disliked Natalie... I am still unsure why. I jthought she was rather boring, and didn't bring much to the game... I know she got in one big fight and lied about her age, but she was pretty mellow. This season is boring. I actually miss Rachel and her hair extensions!

No.. Please no.. I will take this cast over gnat and jessie any day.

I agree. This cast is way better.

I would definitely take this cast over Jessie, but I'd rather watch and make fun of Natalie more than watch this boring *** cast sit around and complain about Brendon and Rachel. Just sayin'.

That is allllllllllllll they do, 24/7. It's getting old.

Anyone who prefers this cast over last season's needs mental help. This is one of the worst casts in BB history. NO ONE IS PLAYING THE GAME! Add to that almost all of them are boring and annoying. When Rachel is your entire season you know you are screwed! I hated Natalie last season but actually was rooting for her and Kevin to win the game. Last season had great drama and a decent cast too I mean how could you forget: 1. Braden calling Lydia & Kevin *******? 2. Chima giving one of the best speeches ever against Braden 3. Chima & Russell's knock down drag out after she threw water in his face 4. Chima getting expelled from the game 5. Jeff & Jordan's romance 6. Jessie getting blind sided 7. Russell taunting Ronnie 8. Kevin and Natalie actually playing the game and making Final 3 when they had all the odds against them This season has had um.... 1. Rachel's laugh 2. Rachel screaming when she got tequila That's just PATHETIC!

You forgot to mention Matts major power move evicting a huge threat, Kathy. Oh and don't forget Ragan being so bold with his sab moves!
