Frenchie is the best HOH in history.

He noms one of his closest allies (Kyland) and Alyssa because she is in a showmance with Christian who was "coming after" Frenchie and Christian can't be nom'd because he has safety.

In reality Alyssa was not coming after Frenchie. Also, Christian was not coming after Frenchie. Also there is no showmance.

Frenchie then spends all goddamn day creating an alliance including Kyland, Alyssa, and maybe Christian. Then Frenchie realizes they are screwed if someone wins the veto and doesn't use it because then someone from the alliance will be going home.

So in the span of approx 50 hours Frenchie single-handedly became HOH, created an alliance, put 2 alliance members on the block, and has no guarantee of controlling veto or even a real backdoor plan if they do get veto.

I liked Frenchie but man he badly misplayed this HOH.

EDIT: How did Brent not end up on the Block?!

Brent and Frenchie hugged it out after Brent was nice to Frenchie after other HGs made fun of Frenchie's small arms which Frenchie is sensitive about. Brent is now also in the alliance.

It has genuinely been the best feeds in a very long time. It's a complete poo poo show in the best way.

One thing I’m hopeful for, which Taran brought up on his daily recap, was that the first week is good for establishing alliances and setting structure, but that because Frenchie has been such a huge manic poo poo show, no one really knows wtf is going on, and the rest of the season will thus be more free reign. Apparently that’s been the case in other similar season first weeks. Hopefully that will play out. The one semi solid aspect appears to be the Cook Out alliance, due to the chill trust and bond among the black house guests. Apparently the one potential wrinkle has been Derek F who plays a bit sloppy.

Brent had a final two with Frenchie as of last night. Apparently Frenchie did a 180 after Brent talked about his father’s suicide. Who knows how long their final two will stick.

Frenchie has somehow been even worse than Devon. There are no rational connections in his head. He will twist and shape anything to suit what he thinks is going on and the others have had to stop and stand their ground several times to get him on track or clear things up. The problem is, that they also don’t really know everything that’s going on, so they think some actual version of those things is happening, even though that’s been far from the case

Does Brent seem like he’s the only one that doesn’t belong in this season to anyone else.

I also laugh about the random job lies this season.

I don't know who any of these people are but Derek X won POV and I believe he was the backdoor target so sounds like more "best feeds ever".

As far as Frenchie goes I did notice "#BLM" written on the back window of his truck during his intro package, so it's possible he just has genuine feelings about the show's history and wants to be a part of changing it.

In other news, Claire really reminds me of someone that I can't place, and I expect it to drive me crazy as long as she's in the house.

She looks like Heidi Gardner from SNL

Is it necessary to have a broadcast only thread or are the BB winds so small now that there is no need?

I don't care either way since I have Para+ but I'm not going to spend much time with feeds because of life, job, etc unless some monumental poo poo goes down and even then I'll likely miss it and watch it after the fact.

I'm just curious on where we should post/poo poo on the broadcasts which I'll follow more than the feeds.

I still haven't given up hope but I still haven't watched the premiere. I assume elimination tomorrow? Maybe I'll try and catch up by then. Second HOH is often when the cast really has a chance to decide which way they're gonna go. Path of least resistance or a fight.

I think Sarah Chalke is who I was thinking of, though on further reflection it's also very likely a non-famous person from my actual life.

The way they're editing the show is VERY different from how it's going on feeds. They're feeding into frenchies delusion that he's making moves instead of showing that it's manic scrambling and breaking promises. I definitely don't love how they're editing that at all, but all of the contestants know that frenchie is playing an insane game and can't be trusted. Week 2 will definitely define the season imo. We need a Tiffani or Xavier or maybe Derek X HoH win so we can shake poo poo up from the madness frenchie created.

Frenchie is trying to be like Dan and have 10 thousand alliances.

Only problem is Dan was able to pivot, Frenchie is a frenchin' disaster and he's gonna be frenched next week.

Wild Card comp over, sounds like Sarah won and declined the trade. She was already safe anyway (one of the only one secretly told by Kyland since they are close), and probably played up staying with her team.

Frenchie told everyone about the slaughterhouse in attempt to blow up everyone's game. "They hosed me so I'm gonna gently caress them" and is in full insane meltdown mode as of Friday might before he was called to DR.

Everyone else was enjoying cake for Alyssa's bd.
