***Official Big Brother 17 Thread***no spoilers (2 Viewers)

The twins garbage already sucks balls and it hasn't even started.
Will the twins be able to talk to each other outside of the house? Or will they be switched instantly without being able to get caught up with each other?
The only way this will work is if each are tuned into what the other is doing so I suspect they will be kept up to date in the diary room before the other heads back in.
They did the same thing in season 5. BB would be more effective if they didn't tell the house guests or the fans any of the twists until they happened. I think knowing that they should expect the unexpected, but not be able to game plan about it would keep everyone on their toes.

 
Agree that BBTakeOver sounds literally like that, BB takes over the game and guides it.

Hard not to like James, the dreaded week 1 HOH. Da'Vonne looks like she knows how to play the game :thumbup:

Plenty of eyecandy :clap:
She lied about her profession and there is a professional poker playing coming into the house. :timebomb:

Edit to add, she said dealt all around LA which means the Commerce Casino, Russo will know who she is.

Probably my favorite dynamic in the house so far. Shady poker dealer sneaking around, shady poker player sneaking around... They end up as either a strong alliance or strong rivals, can't see an in between for them. It will be interesting if Da'Vonne recognizes Russo but not the other way around, and to see if/how Da'Vonne turns that in to an advantage.

Hoping Da'Vonne and company bring some game this season. There wasn't much of it last year.

Well if you are going to include people from amazing race then Jeff and Jackie was perfectly acceptable. Especially Jackie

Unless it has been found out already on BB after dark the "well the poker player and dealer will be exposed quickly" theory hasn't happened yet

POP TV? I know I have never heard of that channel before. I mean the rating must be bad to get bumped from the TV Guide channel

POP tv is the old TV Guide channel now,just a name switch.

 
How does a poker dealer not recognize Vanessa Rousso when she walks in? Especially if she's dealt at the Commerce for any length of time. Maybe she did but the broadcast didn't let on like she did even when Vanessa lied about her occupation.

Think they are hiding this at this point, there is a good chance she is known without a poker dealer there. Dumb move on her part.

Plus dealer girl says she plays too. It would hard to believe they don't remember each other.

Unfortunately girl poker players is a much smaller community than it should be.

Da'vonne is the worst. There's always someone whose worthless who I completely hate that goes pretty far. So everyone who likes her should be pretty excited.

I am pleasantly surprised that most of the players don't seem totally awful yet. The tranny brings nothing and Davonne is both annoying and worthless but everyone else has some sort of potential.

 
I don't normally watch; last I did was in the throwback season where that worm Ian won over Dan Gheesling. The racists season pretty much tuned me out for good.

That said, the SO DVRs and watches it and she advises that Phil Keoghan was on this last installment. For a TAR fan like me, any point in watching the ep for that?

He was on to introduce the audience to two TAR contestants who are the last two houseguests for the house and to announce a twist. He didn't come into the house and make conversation or anything.

 
I've watched every season except for the one that was in February or March. This might be the second time I tune out. This cast is really bad. I'm not optimistic they'll turn it around.

If the show is presenting this cast as bad it's the editing. The live feeds have been entertaining, lots of gamers. Audrey and Jason have been live feed gold so far.

I would not let the Dentist guy anywhere near my teeth. He has a serial killer vibe going on.
:goodposting: He is all about retirement and money too.
Sometimes he just doesn't sound...ummm...normal. Like multiple voices/tones going on. Is this just me?
Too much personally induced laughing gas in his past I'm thinking
I think he's just a harmless spaz, the guy cracks me up. It's like an 8 year old trapped inside a 12 year old's body.

 
The show I love to hate.

Already so much manipulation by the producers...the first comp had just about every ball for the big wrestler guy going straight into the dirt...while all of the country asian's went right into his chest.

Happy he won...bought the only one I can deal with besides maybe the other country boy and the wrestler dude, maybe.

Then the next comp was a COMPLETE load. You could tell that the spaceship was only pulling at certain times for certain people. It had Jackie all the way at the top...then just stopped pulling for a while. But for the big guys, it pulled and pulled until it had them gone. Massachusetts gay dude didn't get any pull until the very end. Such manipulated BS.

And I'm not sure I could come up with a more aggravating accent...overly, flamboyant gay with Massachusetts Mike Myers Coffee talk inflections...ugh.

There's no way in hell NO ONE has recognized Rousso...it's just impossible.

This ended up being no big deal. She's told at least half the house by now that she used to play poker professionally and how much money she won.

I only catch about half of what he says. Marbles in the mouth. Plus, does every thing he says have to relate back to dentistry? We get it already

how many people pay attention to pro poker players?
yeah, i think some people over-rate how many poker players are known to the general public.

Very few people i know would have any idea who she is and many of them play cards occasionally. Nobody really watches poker on TV anymore.

I was trying to figure out who he sounded like and than it hit me - when he talks he is a less extreme version of Bobcat Goldthwait (and I love that I'm posting this in response to a post from someone called Bobcat).

Good call, actually.

 
I like James and Clay well enough. Dont get the love for Da'Vonne. She's already paranoid and thinks everyone is lying about everything. Jason will get annoying and I dont like Steve as much as I thought I would. Did you know Vanessa was a poker player? I think she only mentioned it about 15 times in the first couple of episodes. Austin seems OK, but him and Jace together are a bit much to take. They really want to be Dr. Will and Mike Boogey...but they are not.

Goldthwait it is!

Thanks, Henry. I'll imagine that I watched it and delete from the DVR.

Whew....... I was wondering if you were watching this year.

 
Jace reminds me of Corey Feldman with the whole "maybe I'll be cool if I try to wear lots of hats".

Don't mind this cast - greatly prefer a cast of completely new faces than trying to force Jessie or Dr. Will down our throats.

 
Think I spotted the twin already.. different nose and eyes on one of them in a couple shots lastnight.
