Why is Sam so popular?

[andybigbro]

I don't get it? He is so dull.

Have I missed something?

[Adamw92]

Because he's "so nice" and "genuine" :rolleyes:

[karezza]

1. Those who don't like Ginxter looking for someone to support
2. Sympathy vote
3. Welsh

Because he's "so nice" and "genuine" :rolleyes:

Yep!...that about covers it! :thumbs:

[andybigbro]

Awk it's so annoying, he's gonna win :(

[karezza]

Awk it's so annoying, he's gonna win :(

He should never have been chosen as a housemate. The person who selected him should be sacked.

:devil:

[Mystic Mock]

I don't get it? He is so dull.

Have I missed something?

His got the nice vote, the sympathy vote, and the teen girl vote.

All quite powerful votes.

[fingers]

Awk it's so annoying, he's gonna win :(

He won't win, his nasty side is beginning to show!

[Johnnyuk123]

I want to make it clear that i don't dislike Sam,he is just not interesting enough for me, he is after all on a tv game show playing a game to win £100.000 just like any other housemate in there, having said that i do think that going into the big brother house and talking about an issue that he had long before entering the house is completely wrong, first of all it is unfair on all the other housemates (who entered the house as equals or thought they did) but it is also unfair on us the viewing public to have this issue dangled like a kitten over a canal bridge to force sympathy that even Sam himself does not want. Sam is a decent enough lad but offers very little to the show, I am sure he is popular but for all the wrong reasons as i have stated above.

Round of applause for Johnnyuk please!

[lippyzippy]

hes good fun, hes a great team player, he gives 100% in every task, hes pretty funny at times, he loves a good flirt, he even works hard and does the washing up, hes a lads lad likes a beer, likes sport and movies, hes clearly very loyal and honest person...

hes not in it for the wrong reasons i.e. selling tacky stories in sleazy mags, hes honest, hes not bitchy, he tells people straight but doesn't go looking for trouble, hes proved hes not in there just for the money, hes warm and compassionate to others when theyre down , see how he helped gina, he praises his rivals as hes genuine, calls gina a legend, even accepted dexter isn't that bad, he praises the twins when they can be funny.....the wrestling sophie was quality as was the slanging match, the bad joke task was terrific, dance night with cowboy callum was great, the pool slaves is fun to watch,callums coach was funny and moving too


when someone is nasty or dishonest or insulting he calls them out but then he moves on.....hes a growing person, a decent young man with plenty of virtues who will have learned a great deal from this experience....I don't mind if he wins, but regardless he can be proud of himself as can his family

[Vanessa]

All he does is sleep. Oh yeah, he's a great housemate. :joker:

OMG!! It's the Messiah returned!!

[Vicky.]

I really dont know. I think a lot of people see him as kind of an anti-dexter/gina vote. The reason I think this is because a lot of his supporters seem to talk about Gina/Dexter much more than they actually talk about Sam, and they turn most Sam threads into a Gina/Dexter thread :shrug: This isn't a criticism, obviously people can talk about who they want to..its just an observation.

I think he is seen as the 'nice' one. Sophie could have had the nice vote if she hadnt teamed up with Gina.

He has grown on me since Callum left though, I have to say. He seems to have woken up and realised that he has to do something. When Callum was there, Sam was pretty much invisible, except for a few clips of him bitching about Dexter with him.

[lippyzippy]

OMG!! It's the Messiah returned!!

hes not the messiah hes a very naughty boy:joker:

You've actually summed up my opinion on Sam tbh.

Just about sums it up for me too.:hugesmile:

[the_answers]

Truth is, he's not !

Up until now, people vote out their "nasties" but great news !
There's no real options left ! :)

NOW is the BEST and ONLY time to act !

The general public often tune in for the final and think
"Who's nice ?",
"Who could use the money ?" and other pointless/irrelevant questions.

Sadly their votes count just as much as avid viewers. :(

For god sake, let's ALL pull together while we still can and take away their option of letting "Mr & Mrs one off viewer" ruin the whole thing. :bawling:

[kistar]

Tbh I doubt he has any stories sleazy mags would be interested in , if he did I might like him more, he has no spark nothing to set him apart , he is a dullard from dullardsville central and he does nothing to entertain me and he thinks talking about his winky expanding might be funny .....he is a nice boy and that is all he has to offer .

[Gerbil901]

Just because someone votes for Sam does not make it a Sympathy vote.

[Tozzie]

He won't win, his nasty side is beginning to show!

hope you are right fingers!

[the_answers]

So is my dog.
But I wouldn't want him in the BB house.

when someone is nasty or dishonest or insulting he calls them out
Sorry that's the biggest myth there's ever been.

More like
- he "has a problem" with them
- speaks down to them like they've already committed a crime
- then completely misses the point when people give him an asnwer (or if he's right, he's done the exact same !)

but then he moves on.....hes a growing person, a decent young man with plenty of virtues who will have learned a great deal from this experience....
Leant what ?
Sorry where's the evidence ?
He says he's got no idea what he's gonna do when he gets out.

I don't mind if he wins, but regardless he can be proud of himself as can his family
And others can't ?

Please please stop feeling unnecessarily sorry for him.

He's wasted his time in there.
That's not your cue to vote out of sympathy.

[reece(:]

This, it's daft really since he's done nothing in the house... such a dullard.

[Videostar]

He won't win, his nasty side is beginning to show!

I'd like to agree with you but as we know Sam isn't being judged on a fair playing field with the others.

Tonights show will sum up how stupid the GBP are... the fallout after the twist last night is that Sam ranting at Dexter for nearly walking off with what Sam believes is his prize money and his little "im hear to raise awareness for deaf children" speech in the task room, will be seen in a positive light by most BB fans...Sam wont be seen as a rude sulky arrogant boy but as a hero standing up to evil game player Dexter....but the annoying thing is I know in my heart that it's nonsense.

[Withano]

By default, the rest are horrendous. He wouldn't stand a chance in a different series, none of them would.

You're probably right, unfortunately!

He's horrendous too.

Dexter and Gina are simply better HM's.

[Patricia4]

Because he's a nice honest lad that is my view on Sam.
Dexter and Gina have been great too.

What about his needless speech in the task room, was that honest and in no way playing the game of sympathy?

[the_answers]

if he's so honest, why does he ponder with anguish for ages before saying he doesn't want the money ?

Watch it tonight, you'll see !

Someone needs to phone up BBBOTS and question HIM (for a change !)

Agree, and about the phone in on BOTS, you'll have to pretend to be a Sam supporter to get on first...then sting them with your question.

Good call !

sam is a great bloke and a great HM and as the house gets emptier hes getting even better

[karezza]

Sam is a horrible creature. He is a rubbish housemate. As the house gets emptier he's getting even worse.:xyxwave:

So you think by insinuating the GBP are stupid you think we should change our minds and vote for someone we don't like,LOL yeah that makes sense.You follow your heart and I'll follow mine:hugesmile:

Did he really?

I havent seen any of the videos besides the reveal one

I would bet this bit wont be shown tonight, and it will look like he said that immediately :p

Agreed lippy,some of us do like nice people:xyxwave:

He really has blossomed the past few weeks. Looks like he is popular on Facebook as well:dance:

[fingers]

I would bet this bit wont be shown tonight, and it will look like he said that immediately :pI think they had another "Exclusive" on BOTS last night showing a longer clip of Sam putting the £100,000 board into the briefcase because it was clearly visible as he slotted it in. In all the other clips you only saw them hurriedly put the boards in the briefcase but NOT into the slot on the top cover.

Edit: They obviously did more than one "Take" on all of them, one where they concealed the board, and one of them slotting the boards in.

[Videostar]

So you think by insinuating the GBP are stupid you think we should change our minds and vote for someone we don't like,LOL yeah that makes sense.You follow your heart and I'll follow mine:hugesmile:

Well, the GBP could prove me wrong either tomorrow by voting him out or not letting him win on Monday...if that happens i'll post a full apology on here. :)

[barbel13]

Noticed the speech of SAM when he was choosing his amount?? Ass licking the deaf people for vote. I JUST WANT SAM TO COME AND SAY THE WINNING MONEY WILL GO FOR CHARITY THEN I WILL BELIEVE HIM.Sam my friend what have you done for the deaf people except your crude jokes which no one laugh.?

lol we'll see soon !

Failing that, you can check out the YouTubeBots thread on here.
All the videos are there and it's a good way of keeping up to date.

You'll see him put his hand over his mouth, like there's this huge dilemma he's faced with.

Erm, what dilemma ?....

Off to watch now, toodle pip.

[Livia]

Sam's popular - with me anyway - because he's by far the best of a bad bunch.

[DanaC]

So you're condemning him for being tempted...?

[Issac]

Because his fans only know about gash, and cannot make pie and mash

[barbel13]

Why SAM is worried about the money when he said he does not care????

The public has a choice.

vote for someone who never entertain us and who spent his time talking about woman gash and boobies.

or someone who from day one was victimized and against all odd managed to pull through and give us entertainment,suspense,intriging and keep us glued on to the screen.

He really is an embarrassment.

[Kizzy]

Because he is so normal....
I am sick to the back teeth of the 3 ringed circus now and crave regular people.

Get the nasty bore out!
