It gets big physical & mental threats backdoored very easily and frequently (unless you're on a season with someone like Derrick who can manipulate everyone). No one wants to take the risk of putting big threats on the block before the POV ceremony, so it makes those people sitting ducks early in the game. Backdoor Central. It's actually the opposite of what people are complaining about. It's especially a detriment to physical threats because those are the people who could've otherwise saved themselves but are only considered for backdoors now. We just didn't see it last season because those physical threats aligned together and Derrick ran everything.

I do agree it gives a big alliance a huge advantage but it doesn't give big threats an advantage at all... actually a disadvantage.

People like Austin, Audrey, Jeff, Clay, Davonne will have no fighting chance once the wrong person against them wins HOH. We're seeing it with Jace and we'll see it a lot more I think if there's no master manipulator that may want to keep these bigger threats around this season.

I disagree! All we're seeing with Jace is that if you're obnoxious annoying as hell and isolate yourself, nobody's going to like you and you make yourself an easy target.

I like it as it makes the show feel fresh.

You want all of the best contestants to leave straight away?

The last series was good for letting the villains get so far and even having one of them win it, Donny and Nicole got upset and tried to play the victims just because the other Alliance was better at the game than them, how anyone could cheer their motto on was beyond me.

Last season was god awful seriously one of the most boring imo.

I prefer it when big characters are targeted and not just given a pass to the jury. people were afraid to put people like Frankie so they just went along with what dominant crew wanted until it was too late to ever go against them.

I personally feel that losing the best contestants kills the series imo, last years was watchable imo up until the nothing week.

But I a lot of the time the floaters at the beginning of the series end up slowly becoming bigger game players. When there is just one group of strong players who are picking off weak players and not being touched because people are afraid to put them up.

There weren't even any villains last season and Donny and Nicole never tried to play the victim? It was easy for people to root for them because the dominating alliance consisted of bores and awful people and their domination made BB16 the worst season ever.

You think that Donny, Nicole, Hayden, and Jocasta would've been exciting TV?

Cause the "fan" is Allison Grodhog.


I don't hate it, I despise it.
