This brings me to the second aspect of JC that I honestly hate more than his awful actions. With the advent of longer seasons, Big Brother has become more and more about BIG alliances formed EARLY in the game, sticking together, and steamrolling all opposition. For me, this sort of gameplay tends to be boring, because if youre able to steamroll, then youre usually calm, and rational, and devoid of emotions. Needless to say, Level 6 will not do well on this ranking for me. But while there are times when my ire is directed at the dominant alliances themselves (for example, I think BB19 Paul is quite possibly the WORST person to ever appear on Big Brother), its very easy for me to find fault with the hangers-on who enable them for little benefit. This is the case with JC.

Now, for the first half of the season, I cant really fault JC for his gameplay. He played the middle, got out some threats, and held his ground when it came to choosing a target between Kaitlyn and Rockstar. BUT, JCs complete lack of comp skill meant that he REALLY needed other players to do the dirty work for him. And it was right around the first Scottie boot that I completely soured on JC. He definitely did some annoying shit early on (throwing hinky votes which further-weakened the ALREADY strategically weak FOUTTE side of the house), but Faysals HoH week takes the cake.

Basically, JCs strategy worked well because he was able to play the middle, and there was ZERO reason for anyone to waste an HoH week getting rid of him, because there was always an entire opposing side of the house to target first. But after Rockstars blindside, FOUTTE was already down in numbers by a 2-1 ratio, so it was the perfect opportunity to even things up while still riding the middle. Hell, JC was Faysals best friend in the house, and second-most trusted ally after Haleigh. He couldve gotten in Faysals ear to split up Angela/Kaycee and changed the whole course of the game.

What did JC do? He convinced Faysal to put up Scottie, his own ally, to further decimate FOUTTE and bolster Level 6. Level 6, the alliance that used JC, but pretty much put him at the bottom of their totem pole with Sam. And all the while, he gives these smug little DRs about being a mastermind and a puppet master that controls dumb puppet Faysal. I swear, I want to punch his face in whenever he scrunches it up into that cocky smirk. Needless to say, that was FOUTTEs last chance at a comeback, and we got a month of Scottie, Faysal, Scottie again, and Haleigh booted, before FINALLY Level 6 had to turn on their own, and they blindsided JC by targeting Brett.

Just to recap, JC thought he was a mastermind, thought he was running the show, was in fact enabling a boring alliance to steamroll, and then had the nerve to throw a tantrum when shit hit the fan during the double eviction. And then he survives over Sam to complete the humiliation. But at least we got that BB12 moment, right? Where Tyler/Kaycee/Angela tell the lone outsider theyve been aligned all game, and theres nothing he can go about it? Nope! After being utterly useless in comps ALL season, JC FINALLY wins HoH to guarantee his safety, ruining any chance at schadenfreude.

In fact, as of the writing of this write-up, his win ruins the endgame even harder, because instead of the finale being up-in-the-air as to which pairing make the final 2, we instead have it pretty locked down that JC is going out in third, which diminishes what could have at least been an exciting finale to cap off a boring season. Oh yeah, and fuck the little troll for acting like he was in the loop all season long. He got blindsided with the Brett boot, so he can get the fuck out any time now.
