First, a few words to CBS regarding last night's episode. Stop editing Danielle's shameless and pathetic stalking of Shane into a showmance. You cannot turn a desperate woman clinging to an indifferent man into Jeff and Jordan. After enduring two seasons of Brenchel, most of us are still too nauseated to ever want to see anything that even slightly resembles two people attempting to couple. Thank you.
Speaking of last night's episode, watching Janelle take credit for Frank being Shane's renom made me giggle. She was so full of her own cleverness, claiming to be the puppet master pulling the strings this week. No Janelle. No. It was Ian, incapable of talking game without Boogie there to do his talking for him, that triggered Britney's hair trigger paranoia and put Frank's life in the Big Brother house in peril. Incompetence gets the credit, not Janelle's lame offer of her jewelry as hostage in exchange for her loyalty to Shane and Britney.
Which brings me to what promises to be the happiest moment of the season for me...the eviction of that loathsome excuse for a human being, Frank. Not that seeing Janelle at the mercy of Ironic Justice doesn't have its appeal, but Karma backdooring Frank is just so much better. I want to see him shocked and upset and parked next to Julie, who will, hopefully, do her job and pressure him to name the dysfunction that compelled him to lie about Willie being homophobic. Make him accountable Julie. We're counting on you.
Of course, the inexplicable could happen and somebody (hopelessly in love with the idea of being in love Danielle, the probable swing vote) could decide to vote to evict Joe instead. While this is clearly not my favorite scenario, I could get all right with it fairly quickly. Joe's eviction would mean I would not have to tolerate that boorish shit stirrer shouting at me from my television any more. Not a bad thing. I also wouldn't mind Julie asking him if his troublemaking ways are genetic or a learned behavior. Anything that brings us a step closer to settling the nature vs. nurture debate is always welcome.
Either way, tonight's eviction will eliminate someone that doesn't deserve to win; Frank, because he shouldn't benefit from that particular lie, and Joe, because being an asshole doesn't make him a worthy competitor, it just makes him an asshole. Too bad they both couldn't be kicked out the door with one vote. I wonder what kind of special power CBS could pretend that America granted could make that happen. I bet I could think of one in the time that it takes me to fetch the mail. It can't be that hard. Allison Grodner does it all the time.
So tell us what you think. Who do you want gone? And how much fun would you have watching Julie torture him until he breaks and begs forgiveness for his despicable behavior. You've seen it. It's fair game. Let's talk about it.
If you've watched the feeds instead of the poorly edited CBS episode, you'd know that Janelle (as well as Ashley) played a HUGE role in getting Shane to put Frank up on the block. Janelle spent a lot of time working on Britney and bringing up the fact that the coaches could enter the game, and if they did Boogie would take Frank to the final two, while Ashley spent as much effort convincing Shane that Frank is the bigger threat - hence why Shane removed Ashley instead of Joe in the first place.
ReplyDeleteIan's lame answer to Britney's question helped Shane's decision, but it was hardly the big deal that CBS made it out to be. Ash and Janie deserve most of the credit here. Janelle calling herself a "puppet master" may have been exaggerated, but there was a LOT more to her strategy this week than just offering up jewelry, and it's a shame CBS undermined that.
I do not subscribe to the live feeds because I don't have time to watch them. I have to rely on my sources, my teenage daughter who watches BBAD and a friend of hers that has access to the live feeds, and they both confirmed CBS's version. Janelle made Shane and Britney an offer that they did not take seriously. They reconsidered her offer after Ian's non responsiveness to Britney gave them cause to doubt Boogie and, by extension, Frank. That flubbed conversation and resulting mistrust led to Shane's and Britney's decision to renom Frank.
DeleteLol is this serious? You honestly think Ian's weirdness is what set the Frank nomination into motion? Despite the fact that Janelle and her entire team pulled an all night shift with Britney & Shane to get Frank on that block?
ReplyDeleteWhat CBS shows you is not how it went down at all and I know that from watching the feeds the whole day. Your teenage daughter and her friend are wong.
I wish I had that kind of time so that I didn't have to rely on others. From what I understand, Janelle and her team did a lot of talking, as they should have, considering the position they were in (two members sitting on the block), BUT Shane and Britney were not convinced by what these desperate people were telling/promising them. And then Ian blew a brief conversation with Britney which led to her being suspicious of Boogie's entire team. That was the nail in Frank's coffin. Or would have been if not for the "reset".
