I’m not ready to start arguing with popular TIBB members

30. Jason Cowan

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/...20130601165007

When I originally made this list, Jason was below Marco at 45! So this is a pretty big jump for him, and I have grown an appreciation for him thanks to my current BB5 watch. Do I ever like or support him? No, but he's a much more fascinating character than I thought.

For the first month, Jason is a pretty dull character with a showmance and annoying teasing thing with Daniel, but as the series progresses, he's actually pretty complex and sometimes endearing! :o I honestly never thought I would type that out. Jason is a moody, sleazy. rude, arrogant man who goes way too personal (calling Nadia trapjaw) and generally spends most of his day in bed or pruning himself in the mirror. What most surprised me about Jason was how insecure he actually is, of course he's not as confident as he makes out when he spends three hours on average a night doing his hair and fake tanning, asking housemates constantly whether he had lost his definiton or shape, I almost found his insecurities relateable - note the important word there, almost. Jason was disliked by the majoriy of his housemates for being miersable, but it all kind of makes sense as to why he is - he's stuck in a house with people he dislikes and doesn't truly fit in with the group and never does, no one really likes him like they do Victor, and that must be a daunting feeling realising everything he wants to come accross as "funtime frankie" he really isn't.

Anyway I could never support Jason and actually disliked him numerous times, but he was a good housemate, his arguments with Nadia were great and it all ended with them as the final two and her beating him. Perfect.

I’d agree on that ^^

I couldn’t stand him when I watched BB5. Like you said, sleazy and arrogant. Just a dick.

Jason was a good HM tho

“I might decide to knock the fook outta you!” was a Scream

Small man syndrome transferring itself to a gigantic man. :love:

If I were watching back in 2004 when BB5 aired, I would've probably hated Jason but he's great for rewatches/first watches as you have your own pace to analyse him. He was a freak and notorious house enemy, but he always had this endearing empathetic appeal to him. I think we can all relate to being needlessly insecure about looks and doing ridiculous methods to try and improve them. I remember that time he was flexing shirtless in the bathroom, and then asked Daniel if any volume could be seen :joker: .

It should also be worth mentioning that even though he generally wasn't liked by the house as you said, I still scream at how he was pretty much evicted every single post-fight night week but was saved out of complete convenience, whether it be no nominations, being 1 vote away from nominations, a lucky twist like the bootcamp task, or when he actually IS up, still surviving because of Victor/Michelle making tits at themselves at the last second, he kept somehow sliding through while millions of Brits raged that he still wouldn't piss off :love: .

I also think him and Nadia were much more similar and had more chemistry than they let on. Both very short-fused, insecure people who hate watching themselves back, and take too much personally. But where Nadia had the house rally behind her in the end and she overcame insecurities to go onto win, Jason left the house not really learning anything, and not realising how moody he actually came across. It's pretty tragic, but it's also hilarious for moments like looking away from the screen any time Davina shown him his cringier moments <3

I think I might have liked him in Week 1 but it just went downhill from there

Poor Vanny Mac did not call Saskia a “dirty little prostitute” to be dismissed in favour of someone who only got twatted by Nadia on fight night :oh:

Both were average Housemates but at least Nimmo contributed more to her series and didn't just eat all the time

BB6 Vanessa needs to be out before them

LemonJam 06-01-2019 07:01 PM

Iirc Vanessa didn't even bother getting dressed for the Maxwell/Saskia eviction and stayed in her dressing gown :skull:

Vanessa Nimmo is very underrated though IMO and I think perception of her would be very different if BB5 aired today.
