I know a lot of us are all feeling the same thing about this past week of Big Brother 17. It was a little underwhelming and disappointing in a lot of ways. So this week’s Ewws and Ahhs are going to be extra hard to write. So go easy on me.
So let’s see what I can come up with as the best and worst moments of Big Brother 17 Week 8.
Eww: Liz Wins HOH. Sorry, Liz fan, but we all know Julia is everyone’s favorite twin. And since her HOH ended up being the most boring one of the season, it gets an easy Eww.
Ahh. Everyone is onto Vanessa. The best part of this past week is that Austin and the twins have even had it with Vanessa. Austin hasn’t felt right about her since she almost backdoored him, but now her paranoia and lies are even annoying Liz and Julia.
Eww. Liz decides not to target Vanessa. I understand that she didn’t have to do it and that it wasn’t even necessarily great for her game (especially since Vanessa might not even be hard to beat in a final 2 jury vote). But taking out Vanessa would have been so great for a final 2 jury speech. I would’ve done it.
Ahh. Johnny Mac strikes a deal with Austwins. For a minute it looked like JMac was in trouble, but he managed to get on the good side of Austin, Liz and Julia by letting them know that his target is Vanessa and that if he stays, he’s going for her.
Eww. Liz and Austin under the covers. We saw a lot of HOH bed action this week on the Live Feeds. And needless to say, I don’t want to see that again. Ever. Ever.
Ahh. James. I’d like to thank James for going from one of my least-favorite HGs to one of my favorites. He’s such a funny guy and really seems to have a big heart. He might not be playing the best game, but he definitely stands a shot at winning America’s Favorite player at the end of the season.
Eww. Steve’s edit. OK, I’m not going to lie, I’m not a fan of Steve. I think I’ve sort of let that out in some of my past writings. So I’m easily annoyed by him as it is. But nothing annoys me more than the edit he’s getting, last Sunday’s episode in particular. Someone is trying to make TV-only watchers think that Steve has used actual strategy and is playing a good game when he’s really only handing over the prize money to Austin, Liz, Julia or Vanessa, who I now believe all will last longer than himself in the game.
Ahh. Jury segment. I often love jury segments more than the actual game itself at this point in the game, so it was great to see a look at the jury house already. But that of course leads me to my next eww.
Eww. Shelli’s still getting her lines fed to her. I see the jury house hasn’t improved Shelli’s ability to be natural in front of the camera. She still speaks like she’s auditioning for her high school production of Hello Dolly.
What do you think the best and worst moments of Big Brother 17 week 8 were?
