Rodney.

An analogy I just thought of Rodney to be is what I would have expected Chad Johnson to be in CBB20 - womanising showmancer. Luckily, Chad was way more complex than this, but Rodney wasn't.
Rodney gushed over every woman of his team (besides Sammy, which was probably done to emphasise the idea that Amy is the 'prettier' twin but like... coolio) and honestly? That's all he did.
TDPI is a great season imo, however too many characters rely on gags (Leonard, Beardo, Ella, Shawn, Max, for example) and sadly, he didn't develop his own story or character outside of the showmances (Shawn's relationship with Jasmine and him facing his fear of Zombies and Max's gag playing well with Scarlett AND his dynamic with Scarlett AND his babysitting abilities are examples of what he could've been) to make him more enjoyable, but nope, he's just a boring whose screentime consists of crushing on girls and girls only.
Luckily, he was eliminated 4th, and while Leonard would've been a better 4th placer than Rodney (IMO Leonard's gag was just overall more interesting and bearable) he didn't go over anyone too interesting (besides maybe Amy, but I fail to see how else her elimination could've placed her)
To sum up, there's not much to be said about Rodney. A character who didn't exactly overstay his welcome in terms of how long he was in the season and who preceeded him, but overstayed his welcome by three episodes due to how unbearable and boring his crushes got.
