Episode BBAU 2020 - Episode 16 Discussion (13 July)

Chad will waste a nom on Kieran. When it should be Dan and Mat.

!
These housemates are intolerable! Best of the worst kinda thing here.

I find it odd that everyone is afraid to put Dan up.

Well tonights episode was a bit mixed. I am gutted that the other housemates evicted the last interesting housemate of the series - Kieran - to the real world. However i am also relieved that Big Brother sent the last interesting housemate of the series - Kieran - to the white room.

He seems to be well liked in the house

Please explain

 

[Brekkie]

If it is Sarah who is evicted tomorrow then how dumb are the final four? There is no situation at all where nominating Sarah, never mind evicted her, over anyone else in the house makes any sense at all.

Also considering they were rushing the show to a conclusion in the early days of COVID-19 having two fake evictions just makes little sense - you'd have thought Seven would have prioritised completing filming over the number of episodes and they could easily have made an extra couple of episodes out of unseen moments or splitting episodes for events like where Angela returned or the COVID downtime.

 

[BB_Fan_05]

like we have all seen it, what else is new

 

[D Space]

They've been told not to.

He's Seven's predetermined winner.

They are gonna have to give him a good “review” package at the end of it to sway the voting public into picking him as a winner now tbh. He came off as an outright narcissistic bully in the last episode.

Still 4 more episodes to lull the voting public with, though, I suppose. Accompanied by sweet royalty free music and tears for his gf.

My take is that they are prepping Kieran for a win at the moment..

Presumably the process (fake evictions, whatever) went to plan, just at an accelerated rate, by dumping the three day cycle for a daily one. They had little enough content from the white bread cast by that stage without cutting their twists out.

Fun fact: The white room was actually Sonia Kruger’s room

Laughable marketing.

BB is water cooler chat at my work. Most wouldn’t know this if it wasn’t for me. I’d say most of the million plus viewers don’t follow every article and nit pick every announcement like we do!
Even the Elder Sibling podcast said over the last couple of weeks that they didn’t know how the show was ending (Reggie and Rod)

 

[Spectator O.O]

Lol. This episode was shit. No one knows what the fuck they are doing. Their strategy makes no sense.

Highlights was when Sophie kicked the ball over the fence intentionally and the fact Kieran didn't go ( because it is going to piss Dan and Matt off so much!!!)

 

[timmy]

Most wouldn’t know this if it wasn’t for me

"Who wins? You decide" has been the show's tagline ever since this season started. Surely that would have given them a clue?

 

[marquisite]

Perhaps they'll hypnotise us into enjoying this?

Unless the hypnotist has more than A-grade credentials, no chance

EWWWWWW I have the same suitcase as Mat.

I'm gonna have to burn it now.

Or advertise it on your classifieds/auction site of choice 'as seen on Big Brother'

They need to market in this way as there were still a lot of people asking on their Facebook page how the winner will be decided.

Only because they didn't produce a proper, dedicated launch episode introducing the new format (among other things like I don't know... all the 12 OG housemates?) and explaining where and when the viewers' vote will fit into it

It's HILARIOUS that they're acting like they didn't hear all the furniture being removed from the house and all the pool water being sucked out during the night... ffs.

But in the bedroom they apparently can hear housemates in the DR ... which is in a completely separate shed with the bathroom sandwiched in-between.

What should I do to the housemate banner? Put some white globs on Keiran's face or something?

You could wrap the two WR hms in white bandages

Or a more realistic idea, greyscale faces? Maybe also bump up the brightness a bit to make it less grey... I don't know

 

[Meglos]

Well done Big Brother, you really had us fooled that Kieran was going home.

 

[Meglos]

As much as I can't stand him on my tv, the bullying of Kieran by Matt and Daniel is worse.
While the dirtying of the dishes could be excused as a painfully unfunny 'joke', more disturbing is the way Matt openly refers to him as 'Thick'.

 

[Zapp]

Isn't that the nickname Kieran gave himself to make himself more endearing to the housemates lol

I thought the dirtying of the dishes was a rather creative and harmless prank from the good ol alpha alliance.

 

[It’s Not]

Daniel is a fucking asshole. I know Kieran is a lazy bugger but that was just low from Daniel and not justified. Daniel is a fucking bully. (And let’s not forget all of the good food and ingredients he wasted)

Does Australia really want this guy as their winner? Entitled little prick.

I genuinely can’t see the outcome being anything different. Sadly.
