The lack of live-feed is somewhat off-putting, although I've never really been invested into live feeds prior to BBCan4. I always make do with clips but even they prove that nothing interesting is going on.

Even 16 had more going on at this point with Devin of Household and his whole thing with Brittany (literally the only good week of the season.) What has happened so far this year? Go on, I'll wait.

Yeah, I agree. I feel that if there were no returnees it would be a lot better, but it's so typical that none of the vets seem to be going anywhere any time soon.

It's awful because all the twists and bull**** are actively preventing any power shifts from happening. I'm not sure if Grodner even realizes that, or if she does and just doesn't care as long as her prized pigs make it to jury. The fact that the majority can actively plan and decide who they want to win HOH three days in advance because of the teams is so nauseating beyond belief. Not to mention that even if someone outside the Eight Pack became HOH against all odds, Roadkill just makes it that much more difficult since the power of HOH is effectively devalued.

Yep, It's so pathetic and goes against the whole concept of the game. The show became a parody of itself quite a while ago but this taking it to a whole new level.

the only upside is that ratings are worse than ever and they'll only get worse once the Olympics start. Not that it matters at all since Les Moonves will never let his wife's show die, but still.
