Just caught up to the last two episodes.
First, I think it's safe to guess that this year, there would be no public voting.
I mean come on, that would be completely absurd and unfair.
Normally, when shows give public voting, your friends and family will rally up behind you - which is perfectly understandable.
But when both your parents have a social media following that is far larger than all other players' family and friends combined... Yeah... that's absurd.
Woody would win this no matter what - regardless if he actually deserves that or not. It's just not a fair thing for everyone.
If, on the other hand, they would have rounded up say 100 random people or something and asked them to rate them family feud style that might work.
But just letting the public vote is stupid.
Second, I liked things heating up, but man does it feel like production is really trying to manipulate things. Like setting up the ratings super early so the alliance can't talk to each other in advance?
And why did they both get to "suddenly" save one person each? How come this didn't happen last time?
Seriously, without that save, Sammie would be out the door asap.
And why did Georgina get to go and see Ella? Why didn't Ella get to pick who she wants to see? Obviously to get them to talk and make sure Georgina has conflicted feelings - otherwise the finale is pointless.
Just feels a bit too obvious they are changing things as they go along.
Honestly, this is a game. People need to calm down. I suggest that people who try to assume how much "vile" some contestants are, they should read up a bit about the behind the scenes.
Alex (last year's winner) does some youtube videos talking about the stuff you don't see. Short version : The conditions they live in there are terrible and would get anyone mad. There's a reason why they have a therapist on call 24\7 so that at point someone has a breakdown they can help them out.
And they did. He said they had to talk him out of leaving several times and it seems that others did the same.
So the reasons people constantly shout, scheme, cry or whatever is more of the result of the conditions than anything else.
Well, that and editing of course.
As far as the finale goes, it's a bit weird. To be honest, I thought the only person who really deserves to win just left the show - Ella.
Georgina and Paddy are too passive. They are pushover pawns and never instigate anything.
Sammie tries to play a good game, but he's actually
terrible at it. He doesn't have a chance to win the game. Tim and Woody would rank him the lowest.
Classic mistake.
All of his talk only helped Georgina and Paddy having a shot of winning but he himself has 0% chance of winning. Hence his game is dumb. It's not like he cares about either of them that I would say it's an acceptable move.
Even Ella figured him out in 5 seconds and already alerted Georgina.
Plus, he really lost his catfish game. How the heck can you be so careless as not to mention Charlie in the video?
Tim tries to play a good game but honestly, he clearly alienates players as he goes along. He really should have given Georgina a better reason for blocking Brooke.
Woody... oh boy Woody... Nice kid but he is completely dense. Actually shares the same issue with Tim - They are too stupid to spend their time trying to figure out catfishes.
Umm... Why? The Catfish can vote just like everyone else.
Thus my point on the only one really deserving to win is the one who actually understood that - Ella.
Ella was the only smart enough to sass "Josh" out to everyone then rush to "Josh" and warn him about it. I can't believe people are talking about Ella being "honest" when she's insanely fake on that move alone.
But as far as the game is concerned? She's the smartest one in the group. She makes an effort to connect with everyone - catfish included - to get their votes.
Sammie said he was going for that, but did nothing about it.
But since Ella is out the door? I guess next best one is Georgina.
People say that Brooke's goodbye hurt her but it's the other way around. It got her to start playing the game.
It's too little but apparently not too late.

I disagree.
Tim is the only one I'd agree with. Maybe Paddy.
Sammie isn't completely stupid. He knew Georgina is likely to be an influencer hence he voted for her now. For the same logic he should put Paddy over her so she would be less likely to run past him.
Also I wouldn't put it above him to figure out that he might be better off putting Woddy at the top. Enough vote splitting not to put him at a shot of winning but prevents other COT members from getting to the top.
Woody may or may not completely turn around. I don't think Woody would put Georgina over Paddy. He barely talks to her and she did kick Ella out. He might also be upset with Tim.
Georgina is a complete wildcard here.
If she realizes that Catfish, Sammie could be lowest for her.
If she doesn't, she could put Sammie first for getting her there.
Overall, I don't think Sammie or Woody have any shot of winning.
Georgina seems like most likely winner with... Oddly enough... Paddy being second? Guess it makes sense. He isn't anyone's favorite but he is clearly the "least hated" of the group. Tim is third only if he manages to completely sway Georgina in a final chat. Which is still possible if he exposes Sammy.
P.S
Someone remind me again, why did they all pick Jan over Andrea?
Because he had looks and no personality? And she had...?
