What will be the fallout of last episode's Taras-ment?
Exactly what I've been saying for ages. I think the only way a n00b can win is if they eliminate all the OGs.They're kind of damned if they do or damned if they don't.
It's why I hate when these RTV shows merge newbies and all stars. I will naturally fall into the trap of disregarding the newbies. I know I shouldn't but I will because I'm such a sucker for Nostalgia. I'd rather an entire All Stars cast. And anyway, returnees always get priority with airtime and will be the entire focus on the show whilst the others will be shafted and forgotten. It isn't fair.Exactly what I've been saying for ages.

100%. The n00bs in this season got shafted.It isn't fair.
As I’ve said all along… It’s the case with pretty much any fans vs favourites series. I don’t think I’ve watched a series where aside from a few select newbies they were actual contenders.The n00bs in this season got shafted.
Yeah I saw her post and have been thinking the same.Worried for Reggie for the next few weeks. She’s posted on her socials that her son Lucas isn’t well right now and may have to go into hospital for two weeks. This happens quite often with CF patients and I’ve lost count the amount of times it’s happened to my sister. I hope her son is okay and that Reggie will be able to make it to the finale.
I've thought this for awhile now. It should be "Who wins, you decide AFTER we've decided who you can vote for"They really need to ditch the whole "Who wins? You decide" schtick which is just a vestigial limb from the original format to have something seem some what familiar. They sorely need to have a jury to decide who wins, the current format just has the game switch from being about strategy to being about popularity at the very last minute - just look at 2020, we got Chad as the winner who was the "hot guy" model who had a small sob story about having a dead father who was a Big Brother fan and started a showmance with some generic girl in the house. Besides that, I literally couldn't tell you anything about his time in the house because he was quite insignificant to everything that had been pre-recorded.
It just makes the whole game a story about how we got to the final 3, and now they're just in a contest of who is most popular. There is such a wild disconnect that it's just stupid.
exactly. i think the hope was that with the format they would be able to "shine" as newbies but its gone the total opposite way. the audience relate to the people they know..The newbies are always doomed. Its a tale of two different productons. The earlier days we got to know housemates through many many hours of interaction. Therefore getting to know them. This production does not allow for any of that. So without the benefit of knowledge about individuals, it remains impossible for the newbies to build any sort of traction within this format. The newbies vs og's is just a flawed concept from its inception.
Hello Everyone!!
I am a long time lurker (read everything from the start of this season and I LOVE IT ALL). I hope its ok that im making myself known, because even though I want to change peoples perspectives (like, I want my story to come across), I dont want anyone to be nicer to me or hold their tongue cuz Im here. I love the unadulterated love, hate, and thirst that comes through haha. Also tbh I feel like most of us housemates are here reading all this anyway.
Anyway its me Taras! And after tonights edit I HAD to come in because it was so so so so brutal haha. Also Hi Estelle haha!
Also Not gonna lie I have lol'd at all the photoshops (they ALL get a big spin in the Big Brother HM group whatsapp chat).
