BBUSA 1 just had a really awful cast. And with a more conservative public, the 2 or 3 interesting characters were the first evictees. And the winner was the super predictable tough guy without a leg (sounds familiar).

I like that in BBUSA HMs can control their own destiny and talk strategy, but it's an entirely different show now. It's basically Survivor in a house. And while LF is usually entertaining, BBUSA's edited show is almost unwatchable. With all it's flaws, BBUK is unarguably better.

I do think "vote to save" would help the series without changing the premise, and I think allowing discussion of nominations would make the game dirtier and could have been a good series twist.
