Continuing in this week’s player rankings for Big Brother OTT we’ve got Scott followed by the rest of the LNJ.
Scott Dennis – 2 strips of Tofu – Scott is trying so hard to be the villain of this season, but what he does not realize, is he is more of a joke than a villain. The better move for the house is to keep him this week, because it’s obvious he is not well liked on the outside (being named a Have Not twice).
As someone who used to camera talk, I was happy that Scott started doing it this season, but now it’s to the point where I cannot stand it! He is also obsessed with Alex to the point of creepiness. Not quite the same as Caleb was with Amber on BB16 – but… he will keep doing her bidding – and that will not work out well for him in the long run.
Neeley Jackson – 3 strips of Tofu – yes, she is on the block this week but we still do not really get much emotion / strategy / anything from her. In a season billed Over The Top – with so many huge personalities, she is background music.Lucky for us, her game may be over tonight, and that will cause major shock waves through the house.
Kryssie Ridolfi – 4 strips of Tofu – this is VERY rare, the HoH gets Tofu. Yes she did win the HoH competition, but her performance in the Veto will be talked about for years to come. Did you know she was injured in that comp? If you watch 30 seconds of the feeds since it ended, you would know. Her HoH may be a complete waste – and her crabby attitude will get even crabbier.
I wonder if she will finally realize that America does not really like her like she thought the first couple of weeks. This is sad, because I really liked her at the start of the season. But she complains constantly about EVERYTHING. She even blamed Production for thinking she was not as injured as she claimed she was. She is probably upset because, ITS TRUE!
That brings us to the Tofurkey of the Week – and that honor goes to Jason Roy. His tirade about Shelby after Neeley was nominated was so “over the top.” I mean, how do you complain about the way production is editing her – EVERYTHING IS ON THE FEEDS!!! He even thought the feeds were down after the Veto comp. Bro – cmon!!! You are such a superfan/live feeder – you had to know this season was being played out online all the time. The rude comments were even more vicious than what we have seen out of Jason in the past.
If Jason was not a gay man, I would think he really has a crush on Shelby! Ok Ok Ok, I know some of you may say I am biased because I am a Shelby fan, but if he said those things about anyone in the house, I would still give him this award. Perhaps being a Have-Not for the first time has made him a little cranky – but still, it was way out of line, and his popularity outside the house may have just taken another serious blow.
There ya have it – another week in the books – and I cannot wait to see how tonight plays out. This season has had more unsure eviction nights than the last 4 seasons combined it seems. This format works great for that – and I hope it will carry over on the CBS show.
Let me know in the comments section below what you think of my rankings, and my question of the week is: Who do you plan on voting for in next week’s America’s Care package, the ability to cancel out 3 votes is HUGE as there will only be 5 votes (+ America). I wonder if the winner will try and void Americas vote?
From outside the Big Brother house, I am Adam Poch, have a great day!

Adam you are the best! Love your player rankings each week. Love your true spin on things! Please always be yourself! Keep up the great work! you are appreciated!
Thank you!
Another week of solid rankings, enjoyed it Adam.
Total agree with Jason’s rating. How could he think Shelby just got a good edit? Hasn’t it occurred to him that Julie is never present for this show? I think it would have been better to have a host for the ceremony’s even if it was Jeff. I would really like some better live DR questions. I thought we were going to get to submit questions for the HGs to answer. This read and answer is not very exciting.
How do you get good edits when it is live all of the time. I watch the feeds and then the show and there are a lot of things all of the houseguests get edited, for example I didn’t see Krissy on the show throwing a baby fit and telling the cameras to quite filming her and flipping them off.
Since early this week, I’ve been considering what Shelby could do with the next Care package. There’s a clarity to some of the observations which she gives about the other players, and I’d like to watch her have the power to weaponize it with some clout. And this is a week wherein your ratings and my analyzing align.
Spot on, Adam! Another amazing article.
Great re-cap and postings Adam! Totally agree with your tofurkey being Jason. Care package for shelby or whitney please:)
I’m still holding out hope for a #jelby end game strategy. They clicked on Day 1. If their was no showmance to be had, Shelby was down to cuddle with Jason in a very Carrie Bradshaw (Sex in the City) kind of way. But when, Jason went OTB as Monte’s target Week 1, Jason lacked the empathy to see that Shelby was too busy trying to keep her own butt off the block (which she just barely managed to do) to commiserate with Jason the way Kryssie was able to do. Yet she did not even come close to abandoning Jason the way he made it out to be.
Instead, Jay Roy branded her a snake for going up to Monte’s HOH and making her case to keep her off the block. She still engaged Jason in friendly banter. Took the hookah calls with a sense of humor and she still cuddled with Jason which was not helping her cause with Monte one bit.
Shelby has the biggest balls and sharpest brain of anyone in the house. She’s by far the most loyal to #TeamBallsmashers and the only one without a “side chick” alliance. But she knows she will need one of her haters to work with her to make it to the end. Unless, America will be her side chick ally (the most valuable side-chick ally of all), her best bet among the Misfits would be Jay Roy. Maybe, the light bulb will go off over his head to remind him that if had worked with Vanessa instead of Day & Meg, maybe he would’ve been the superfan she took to the Final 3? He says he’s all about the money this season, yet rather than work with Scott, Alex and Justin together, he bailed because Scott would NOT compromise (i.e., surrender his HOH) his target to Jason’s preference – and take out Dani.
If Neeley goes, the BSers will have a 5 to 3 advantage in the HOH over the MFers. If it’s a mental comp, that might be more like a 4 to 1 advantage. If Shelby remains in line for one of the later ACP’s (Co-HOH if she’s a target or the Double Eviction Vetoes – a BB blessing for any HG) and wins a comp or two, Jason may just see the light.
I agree with you Adam. The PBS alliance are pretty much stronger and have played a tough game. Also I agree that Shelby is smarter and stronger than people give her credit for,
LNJ is just a joke. They have little self awareness of how the come off, and are completely oblivious to how America see them. I mean how inept do you have to be? (I’m looking at you Jason)
Also Scott sucks as a villain. He’s no Evel Dick or Paul. He’s too much of a tryhard.
On another note is it fair to call Jason the Colton Cumbie of Big Brother? Not because he’s gay, but because of his foul personality.
great comparison!
I finally Agree with you. I can’t believe how nasty Jason is.
I am here very late, but I agree with this week’s ranking. Jason is a tofurkey and not just because of his comments, but how lazy he is and not good at comps either other than 1 which I’m still suspicious about. He is now my second favorite after Justin, but sometimes he needs soap in that mouth of his. Kryssie is pathetic and deserved to be in the bottom with Jason.
I have been a Jason fan, but your analysis is correct. He needs to check himself. I give him credit for trying to steer Scott in the right direction, advising him to avoid certain behavior. But then Jason turns around and fails to follow his own advice. I hope Jason can clear his vision and see what is going wrong for his game.
