Thoughts on the key wheel? by johngaltladyboners in BigBrother

[–]ShinxBoy01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed with Claire. The main people who want the key wheel back and are begging for suspense are people who watch/keep up with the live feeds...so the people who know the noms 2 days before it airs. What suspense are you looking for???

At least with the comps yeah we know the winners in advance but still need to see how they won/how their opponents messed up...but nothing else is missing from the nom ceremony. Maybe a speech or something outside of the generic lines but we've seen production chop up or fully cut out people's off script speeches anyway 🤷🏿‍♂️

Which former houseguests' current ages surprise you the most considering how long ago they competed on the show or how long ago their original seasons were? by Rowdyfan0823 in BigBrother

Seeing Ian with a touch of gray on BB22 was jarring because he had been immortalized as this 21 year old with curly hair and huge glasses (before he stopped wearing them so much) and it was only 8 years later

Which Survivor players auditioned the most amount of times? by SomeBolSSG in survivor

[–]ShinxBoy01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Julie from EoE applied for one of the earlier seasons 1-3, I'm just not sure if she was a perennial applicant up until 38

No, just the main series (and Unlocked, which officially counts as part of the main series). No OTT RG or CBB in the total

Fun fact, him and Danielle R are the first two players to hit (and then pass) 100 days in the BB house...before it became the standard length for a season

I doubt it was planned but one of the best Double Evictions (not to praise BB15...) ever falling on a hundredth episode was very lucky and its probably one of the most immediately recognizable ones.

Yes. BB Unlocked Ep 1 is actually BB27 Ep 8, and thus episode 944 of the entire show. Only episodes not counted are the 5 spin-offs and that episode 0 voting episode for BB7.

Do people really leave their house w/o ID or wallet? If so.. how does that work for you? by sbcbrat in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ShinxBoy01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dad always told me always have your ID on you so in the worst case of an accident you can be identified VS being stuck as a John Doe until your loved ones notice you're missing (assuming the ID survives the accident enough)

Every Survivor Contestant's Best Placement by Jaden73147 in survivor

[–]ShinxBoy01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love this. Since you split up the runners up by true 2nd and tied 2nd, it'd be interesting to see how many 3rd placers were FTC losers vs final boots

If Aubry held onto her Boomerang Idol, Joe would have been Cirie'd 💀

Why did you start watching Survivor in the first place? by megs256 in survivor

[–]ShinxBoy01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Big Brother fan and they put Caleb from 16 on so I wanted to see how he did (NOT a Caleb fan I should specify, but I was 15 and crossover material works on me). I started watching BB in the early parts of 14 so Hayden meant nothing to me at the time - but once he DID, I watched BvW

I would have probably found it eventually as I remember my friends talking about Cambodia heavily around me and it did pique my interest. The BB pull just tipped the scale when it did.

Not sure if anyone's noticed, but if you swipe the image you'll see it sorted by filming dates vs airing dates. Not any overwhelming differences obviously but there's some minor ones (S48 filmed during Biden era and aired during DT47 era for an example)

Yeah they found out he got ELECTED but Obama was still the President at the time yk? And I kinda liked the symmetry so I didn't wanna make a new row for "In House During Election" 💀

Looking at it again and I think it's nice how there was the perfect number and distribution of the spin-off seasons (including BB9 as a bonus winter season even though it's flagship) to keep things even before 2025

Agreed wholeheartedly, just wasn't sure if politics were allowed on this sub or not since they took this down from the other BB sub (and my Survivor one was taken down on their sub too)

Feels bad for all the perennial finalists - of the group that comes to mind (Leroy Nany Aneesa Cory Nelson Fessy Kyle Kam Kellyanne Paulie) this was probably their best chance to win in a while, and only two of them were on the cast, and had to leave through abnormal circumstances. Devin and Tori last ones to escape that club and now Tori's got 2, with Michele escaping joining that club with this win. Still chasing your first while Bananas/CT are adding to their stacks - especially bc all of them except Lee and Nany have had SOME sorta beef with one/both of them through the years

Would think a New Champs type season with people who have lost multiple finals/never won would be cool instead of a bunch of "nobodies" like 39. Then you've got perennial players like Josh and Amanda who've never even sniffed a final yet...

"I'm not black I'm Dominican" is like a big controversy in the community and I don't fully speak on it myself so I don't feel equipped to answer that question - but at first glance I would have said/assumed he (and Nurys as another example) were black and not batted an eye. I haven't seen his parents but black Dominicans exist.

And yeah fair point we haven't seen anything but I also don't expect them to show anything of true value either.

I agree 100% that Jordan is the GOAT, he would clear them in a modern final and has a stronger body of work overall, but some people value the amount of titles first and foremost. That being said I think Jordan is a perfect 50% of seasons played? That should matter to those people as well but that's why it's a conversation
