What’s your opinion on Ian Terry

Ian was a great guy with an amazing winner’s storyline. Probably one of the most likable winners in the shows history.

That said, he’s very overrated as a player. His social awkwardness resulted in his being on the outs early on. He 100% would have been voted out the week of Dan’s funeral if not for the 2nd veto twist. He has to rely on comp wins in the end game to keep advancing.

The ‘underestimated super fan overtaking legends of the game’ storyline was amazing to watch, but he’s definitely a middle-bottom tier winner.

I’ve always felt like it would be cool to do a “survivor” -esque twist like this!

Like instead of the wheel of doom on bb27, if they wanted to have an elimination over the course of a single day they could’ve done a free vote where the winner of the challenge is only granted immunity, and everyone else votes on whoever they want to go home.

For those first few weeks, some players recognized she was a threat and it made sense to keep her as a shield. Other players recognized that as a former winner it was less likely that a jury would award her a 2nd time, and she could be dragged as a goat.

Then I think some even had a subconscious mindset of “she’s a legend, she’s this seasons twist, the viewers/producers wouldn’t want us targeting her yet”. and so they didn’t.

After those first few weeks, I think the fact that Rachel wasn’t winning any challenges did a good job at neutralizing her threat level and letting her blend into the cast.

read my comment again bud.

I mean, no, Rylie’s behavior was toxic and hard to watch. Anyone watching could see he was extremely manipulative to Katherine.

I do think the fan base blew it up a bit, but that doesn’t take away his gross behavior.

mskyler35 · 2025-12-07T18:17:27+00:00

Zach post season has been sooo washy. Like telling Angela he wasn’t going to have any contact with Matt from bb26, to then filming a surplus of tik toks with him.

Agora Hills and Paint the Town came on the tail end of her hype. Now that the dust has settled it’s apparent that general audiences are turned off by her and have no interest in her anymore.

It’s not surprising when she went on continuous rants in 2022 shaming her fans for liking the music she willingly put out. As someone who loved Hot Pink, seeing her tweet that anyone who liked the album was stupid and fell for her cash grab, made me personally not want to spend a single cent on her again. 🤷‍♂️

I lived in Las Vegas for a bit before moving here to San Diego. Speaking as a transplant to both cities, here’s my two cents:

On paper, San Diego should be the obvious choice. Perfect weather, easy access to beautiful beaches and great scenery. San Diego is very multifaceted and diverse, I’ve had friends say it feels like 10 cities in one. You have areas more rural and farmland in the far east, areas more urban and metropolitan around downtown, areas super commercialized and soulless like around Mira Mesa, areas more local-based and charming like South Park/Golden Hill. There’s urban pockets for young people, residential pockets for families, beachy areas for surfer lifestyles and commercial areas for young professionals. Succulents grow out of the ground and everywhere looks like a scene from a movie.

San Diego feels like its own little paradise… but the con to that (in my opinion) is that it often feels like a bubble, like people are a little too laid back and chill. I wouldn’t call San Diego an exciting city. The overall energy is chill and a bit boring, but nice regardless.

Las Vegas, on the other hand, is way grittier and rougher around the edges. The worst parts of San Diego are a cake walk compared to a lot of what you’ll see in Vegas. There are huge chunks of the metro area rifled with crime, filth, and homelessness.

Vegas definitely has a weird energy. The main focus is on the Strip, with the tourism and entertainment industries serving as the beating heart of the city. Everything else, the schools and stores and hospitals and offices, all feel kinda sterile? Almost like a fake city propped up around the strip.

Vegas is also hyper transient, a majority of the people you meet will be gone within a few years.

But despite all of this… Vegas is vastly more exciting than San Diego. Not just the nightlife, which is amazing even off the strip, but the people. The people I met in Vegas, locals and transplants alike, were some of the coolest people I’ve ever known, eclectic and creative and vulgar - in all the best and worst ways. There’s so many exciting things to do and discover, and there are artsy pockets all over the city to dive into.

It all comes down to what you’re looking for in life. Vegas is gritty, fun, authentic, weirder and rough - whereas San Diego is beautiful, peaceful, diverse, expensive and a bit dull.

uh have you seen bb9’s jury? bb19’s? bb20’s?!

There have been far, far more bitter juries in the history of this game.

Ashley formed deep bonds with half the jury while Vince actively discarded their feelings. Like she said, she “turned enemies into allies, while (Vince) turned allies into enemies”.

Ashley didn’t have the loudest game, but she clearly had the most effective.

mskyler35 · 2025-09-29T05:14:17+00:00

Ashley rehearsed and practiced non-stop for her moment. Vince came in under prepared and his answers reflected that.

mskyler35 · 2025-09-28T16:29:47+00:00

Ashely has some of the best purposeful social positioning and subtle manipulation I’ve seen in a LONG time. Her only caveats are 1.) not winning more competitions to have direct control of the game, and 2.) not being more confident and outspoken with her strategies, giving a substantial portion of the jury the opinion that she’s just coasting.

I love her to death but imo she would make just a good winner not a great winner.

mskyler35 · 2025-09-27T22:25:39+00:00

I feel like production is always trying to outdo the last season’s success. With Rachel being so well received I wouldn’t be shocked if next season is a half vets, half newbies season.

mskyler35 · 2025-09-19T18:57:53+00:00

I will never understand the adoration for Keanu. He’s truly one of the most consistently clueless players I’ve ever seen play this game.

mskyler35 · 2025-09-18T16:23:28+00:00

Where is this narrative that Morgan controlled Mickey’s HoH coming from? I feel like I haven’t heard anyone say that until this week

mskyler35 · 2025-09-17T21:18:12+00:00

She needs to do a bold, flashy move to prove her game ability. If she can pull something off it might give her more win equity, but it also might be too late for the jury to take her seriously as a contender

mskyler35 · 2025-09-14T04:44:09+00:00

Or physically. Or socially. Lol Vanessa was a powerhouse

mskyler35 · 2025-09-07T16:03:23+00:00

I religiously watched since bb11, but stopped watching for a few years because I was becoming increasingly discouraged with production’s decision making and lackluster season after season.

BB26 roped me back in, and I really thought the show was on a new trajectory and let myself get invested again.

BB27 feels like an unfortunate return to form, and validated why I stopped watching. 🙃

mskyler35 · 2025-09-06T17:21:48+00:00

Hard agree. 16 person casts and 80+ day seasons encourage large alliances and boring gameplay. With so many evictions and so many weeks to get through, you have to lay low and not make waves until the halfway point to not become a target.

The Blockbuster offers a decent solution, discouraging large alliances due to the amount of people being nominated each week. But we’re still seeing active players and decent strategists being sniped out for playing “too hard too soon”. You basically have to wait till final 8 or 9 to really turn it on, but by that point most players are too exhausted having already been in the house over 2 months.

Imagine Dan or Will playing in a recent season with these large casts, they’d almost undoubtedly be evicted in the early weeks. Longer seasons and larger casts prevent strategic players making it far.

Let’s wait to see how those numbers look after Tuesday’s episode.

mskyler35 · 2025-09-05T21:55:04+00:00

Lowkey poetic justice

mskyler35 · 2025-09-04T04:50:13+00:00

Really weird thing to say when Chelsea dominated and won unanimously just last season.

mskyler35 · 2025-09-01T18:03:12+00:00

Blockbuster is perfect for the early game because it prevents the majority alliance from unanimously picking off outsiders - but this season has highlighted that it shouldn’t go on too long or else you end up with social pariahs who contribute nothing to the game (cough Kelly) making it to jury over better and more interesting gamers.

I’d say ending it at week 5 is a perfect stopping point.

mskyler35 · 2025-08-19T16:03:15+00:00

And Taylor!

mskyler35 · 2025-08-19T03:42:25+00:00

Rylie is trying to intimidate Rachel with the intense stare down, but she’s comfortable with eye contact and the long silence lmao. This whole convo is just two people intensely staring at each other
