How come all the finalists tonight except for Dexter (but INCLUDING Gina) named him as the one they thought should win?
They lived in the house with him, they knew him, and he was the WINNER to them. Brilliant!!!

[BigBuk]

Because they liked him better and he was easier to live with... If you're boring you're not going to upset people are you? I dont mind Sam but Dexter deserved it alot more imo.

Have the finalist watched the show and seen how boring he? NO

Right, they actually lived with him and don't care about the edit he received.

SAM WON!

Jesus this is like the most obvious answer ever...why is this even a question?

Because living with people is very different to watching them. If I had been living in that house, I'd have probably wanted Sam to win too. He seems like a decent lad and would probably be a good friend...he's not really pissed many of them off in there and I imagine as a housemate for the most part you want an easy ride...so um yeah I'm not really surprised they named him as the one they wanted to win? Like seriously I can't believe this question has even been asked.

There's a very big difference between living with people in the house and watching them on an entertainment TV gameshow though. Whilst the 'nice' quiet ones would be pretty damn easy to live with, they don't actually contribute anything to the TV show that is being made...and so that's pretty much why they're an undeserving winner. If you contribute next to ****** all to the show, you don't deserve to win. That's it, pretty much. A lot of viewers need to realise that we aren't living with them ourselves, it's often those that look difficult to live with for the housemates that need to stay for the benefit of the show...if they had an easy ride what actually would be happening that would make the show interesting and entertaining?

I couldn't live with Sallie, but was I living with her? No...I was watching her on TV, and housemates like her are much better value to a TV show than housemates like Sam who may as well not even bothered turning up.

It's a pretty obvious answer.

How do you know they didn't find him entertaining? I think they DID. Just because he wasn't involved in nasty drama's that were on the whole what was shown on the H/L's doesn't mean THEY knew he wasn't featured that much when being funny and entertaining. They didn't SEE the H/L's!
And he WON! Even though he wasn't involved in the nastiness and slyness.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

Absolute rubbish!

People love to watch fights, bitching, backstabbing, jealousy and anything remotely sexual. That is the main driver of the show.

The editing team will focus on that and will edit the show accordingly - even stretching the truth to skew the actual situation - so that they get the public to watch.

This means that those who do not partake in any of the above will not get much of an edit in the first few weeks and all the fame hungry desperados who will pretty much sell their soul to ensure they get the camera time will be edited into the show in the name of entertainment.

9 x out of 10 peoples sense of morals and values will overrule this form of entertainment and as Aaron has summed it up: Good will always triumph over evil.

I don't prefer than nonsense. also the fact is big brother doesn't allow friendships and relationships to develop properly anymore so when the arguments do happen they are always shallow and lack depth or credibility. in short BB manipulates and controls way too much and in the end it destroys the show. when there is no real relationships, no real ties of loyalty , love, integrity, then you have very little left. BB should play the long game and allow friendships and even dislikes grow naturally. this years show was far too contrived

You've hit the nail on the head!

[Drew.]

most of their replies is that he was a "lovely guy" and not a great housemate.. the ones that backed Dexter to win all said hes been a great housemate and along with Gina they made the show.

Agreed again jet, also though clearly the public who take the time and spend money to vote thought the same and they were not in the house, they were the ones watching the series.

So on near all fronts Sam was the desired winner.

So funny you keep trying to defend it all, even though it's all over.
It's almost like you've won but don't like others thinking something else.
Hilarious !
Enjoy your hollow victory.
Safe in the knowledge you're right and no-one elses opinion matters

What are you talking about, did the public vote for Sam to win or not, Did Sam actually win or not.

I'm Defending what, Sam won on the show I watched, and just as jet said in the op, the housemates wanted him to win and I added that the voting public made him win.
Think what you like, I couldn't care what you think and since you always disagree with me anyway,I cannot see why you even raise points with me.
It was jet,I replied to, not you so where you are coming from is totally beyond me at all.

Quite frankly it is more likely you are just a sore loser and it is you that in fact doesn't treat others opinions with respect.

Funny, was under the impression the whole point of the thread was questioning others about THEIR thoughts.

Glad you've made the real point now though.
If it's just about celebrating at least you can do it on you own now.
And we'll just ignor it because we don't even care anymore.

Yes it was - until some pretty horrendous posts pertaining to Sam's 'disability' reared their ugly head.
Then I just thought I'd gloat instead.

[the_answers]

Found it bit strange Gina said last night they might never see each other again.
But then said he's her joint best friend or something ?

Yeah must be charity I guess.

What does that even mean?

[GypsyGoth]

Sam didn't really have that much competition in there to be honest, if you think about it he won without even seeming to try hard.

Both Gina & Dex showed themselves to be manipulative and sometimes spiteful. That type of behaviour was never going to be rewarded by the voting public. In fact standing beside them in the final, it made Sam's light seem brighter.

When was Dexter EVER spiteful ?
