Board 8 > Survivor/Amazing Race/Big Brother summer topic - My Cow is Broken

(+) Yeah! (+)

Not sure if anyone here cares much, and those that do probably already know about it, but Australian Survivor starts again this time tomorrow. You can see the first 10-12 mins here.

Too early in the morning for us 'Muricans.
---

man i just have not been able to get into this season of big brother, or last canadian big brother, or last celebrity big brother

maybe i'm just burnt out on the schedule. 3 or more episodes a week, taran's updates every morning, it's all just so much to keep up on.
---

Dunno who Taran is but that seems like an easy place to start cutting out if you're getting BB fatigue.
---

Taran works for Rob C. and covers the BB live feeds every morning at 11am edt. It's a great way to get a gist of what the live feeds were like over the previous 24 hours. He does it every morning for the entire season.

From a feeds perspective, I'm full steam ahead on BB21 right now. I don't like a lot of the players but I'm still invested in all the happenings/gameplay. It's not as fun as BB20's pre-jury but I think we're set up a lot better to go the distance than BB20 was after the hacker comp was put into effect. Of course we have to wait and see what gets thrown at us once jury starts, because BB20 was on a good trajectory going into jury, and then it fell apart and become pretty dull each day.

If I had to cut out one thing from my BB schedule each summer, it'd be the Sunday/Wednesday episodes. I'd rather watch just the Thursday episode, the occasional live feeds (particularly pre-jury when it's more active), and Taran's updates (every other day or so). Which is still a lot, but then I'm not feeling burnt out, and I know the game will likely slow down to a crawl in like a month.
---

i'm more likely to cut out the actual episodes than taran's updates lol
---

Personally, I like spending my Saturday mornings listening to Taran and Liana go over everything that happened leading up to, during, and after the nomination ceremony. Always a good time.

Can't really listen live at work, but I make an exception if some REALLY SERIOUS SHIT went down. Like should what Cliff SHOULD have done (nominate Tommy or Christie and not doing their dirty work for them) on Monday.
---

Hype
---

Jackson and Jack - vote to evict Cliff

Also Jackson and Jack- "Cliff sucks for putting us up."
---

Shirtless jack with his hair down looks like Tarzan.
---

I like them trying to make jacks power seem better than it actually is
---

Lol what a useless power
---

Lmao this is even worse for them because Holly > Analyse and Kathryn > Jess (and Sam = Sam)
---

It might be better for Jack specifically because Holly would have used it on Jackson, while Analyse would use it on Jack. Granted, I wouldn't expect Analyse to win.

I don't get what the big deal is about the DPoV. Do they think Jess or Kathryn wouldn't vote Jack or Jackson out? Or maybe they think Nicole would vote out Bella if they put her up?
---

Kat wont vote out anyone from the Six Shooters. Shes locked as the 7th hanger-on.
---

Msy be the other way. They put nicole up and bella votes her out

Spoilers!
---

So if she uses it theres no hope cause of that kat info :(
---

Lots of shots of jess
---

Well if she doesnt use it jackson is still safe sooo
---

Fun fact: This Cliff x Christie convo went on for nearly 2 hours.

It was a strategic ride.
---

Hype for this
---

Noooo what
---

I didn't think I would actually shout "uh, come ON" to see Bella go up on the block but holy shit Cliff you did it.

This is seriously last season all over again.
---

Well i hope people dont attack bella too hard when she gets out but i do hope she realizes the terrible things she had said and reflects on it
---

Cliff you spineless turd

they had better get Kat to flip somehow or this will be a disaster

Yeah. Just like the Pretty Boys managed to convince everyone to do their bidding, the Six Shooters are running all over everybody in the same way. And guess what? Town can't seem to figure out how to form a counter-alliance all the same.

Le sigh. You know it's bad when you yearn for FOUTTE; as incompetent and dumb as they were, at least that was an actual alliance that managed to get Winston. And Rachel, but she flipped town.

Feeds spoilers... Bella has given up on trying to flip Kat and is instead trying to get her indirectly by getting Holly and Michie to flip first.
---

Bella getting boo'd on her way out would be the only slightly redeeming part of this.

And since it hasn't been pointed out yet, it would mean that now the first four people definitively eliminated from the game are ethnic minorities.
---

do people get to boo on the american version?
---

Yes. It hasn't happened since I've been watching but I've seen clips of it happening on Youtube. At least one of them definitely deserved it.

let's not say things we can't take back
---

Have there been any boos in recent seasons? Im pretty sure they began to regulate the crowd after BB16.

Like I said, not since I've been watching (18)
---

Yeah, Im pretty sure they stopped it after 16 with Christine. I cant recall anyone from 17 getting bood.
---

I don't think booing is allowed anymore, else there may have been instances (especially in BB19). They were discussing the booing on feeds the other day, though...

I presume you mean Aryan, who absolutely earned it. Also booed were Amanda Zuckerman the same season and Christine Brecht the next; while both of them are rather unpleasant people, I don't think they deserved the boos. Fankie Grande, however, had a fake audience, but he deserved the boos, too.
---

hype
---

remember when bella called nicole atrocious
---

Hmm for some reason I'm not touched at all by this. Cant put my finger on why.
---

wow that shot of holly without makeup, she's gorgeous
---

this episode is a lot of fun so far
---

XD nut shots
---

Yes Bella, you have a GREAT shot at getting Nicole's vote.
---

There are so many reasons I want Bella to stay tonight despite hating her more than Jack, it's blowing my mind.
---

Technical difficulties
---

The therapist throws out a mental illness as a casual joke. Wonderful.
---

Sam channeling Hayleigh

And there it goes.
---

oh kat
---

I hope Sam or Nicole wins this HoH.
---

That was such a beautiful bro hug.
---

Rachel Reilly is awesome!
