Board 8 > Off-Season CBS Reality Show Topic: This might actually last until TAR32 airs.

(+) Yeah! (+)

yeah, he never won it his first season

---

Im actually surprised he won, I kinda figured he would throw it. Seemed like he was in a good spot with everyone

---

Pretty surprising for a young guy who lasted all season.

---

"golden rule" that was weird

---

i invested in bayleigh

memphis was literally the only one that could put bayleigh up

hope he doesnt

---

At this point I'm thinking Kaysar, Ian and David go pre-jury. Janelle and Kevin have enough social prowess to make at least a few members of the majority see how they could benefit their game long enough to stay around a few weeks.

Also, given the quarantine, I'm almost certain we won't see any reentries this season.

---

Looks like Nicole F will be there for the long-haul. :(

Yeah I'm thinking we might be looking at a Calafiore/Franzel F2.

Of course, it's still crazy early, and things could radically change, but early alliances have dominated the past few years, and they are both proven players with a ton of social clout in the house.

someone on twitter took a survey and made all these fake casts lists based on first boots, pre-jury, third times the charm, etc. and one was Day 38s, i'll try to find it...

other seasons being up and down that thread

Memphis is really not looking great here. He has some good ideas, but is way to brash and could really use some of Dan's subtlety. The smarter way to get people to play in the Suite would've been to have his alliance members divide and conquer. Maybe have each one talk to a different HG and make them feel unsafe. It works so much better than going oh yeah I might put you up, you should play.

David's underdog story is getting me hyped. They set him up with great motivation, plus I like how he has to prove himself so early in the game. Like yeah it's All Stars, it's a really good opportunity to become one of the legends.

Glad to see Christmas actually playing for herself too, I think the worst thing about 19, was everyone just trusted each other while Paul was taking over the game. At least that's how I remember it.

---

That cast looks very similar to mine, with Yau-Man, David, Matty, and Cydney replacing Fairplay, Rodney, Rick, and Kara.

---

Just gonna throw this out there - if this season goes full length, it'll go into November.

Given that we have no idea when new stuff will be filmed, I feel like they will want to avoid overlapping as much as possible, especially within the same genre.

TAR32 is getting delayed (yet again) to spring, I'm calling it now.

---

It's a week or two shorter. That's been confirmed by the houseguests talking on the feeds. Granted part of that is due to the show premiering on Day 1 instead of Day 6 or whatever it normally is. Week 1 as far as the HGs are concerned is more like 13 days or so.

---

Watching last night's episode.

Literally the first time ever I'm rooting for Tyler to win a comp... he loses. -_-

That being said I am warming up to him a bit this season.

Memphis needs to go soon. He's a dick and he sucks at this game. But if he'a gone early I could at least say I enjoyed him as a douche that got what was coming to him.

---

I have a feeling Enzo isn't long for this season. We've seen 0 strategy out of him on air and he doesn't seem to be really in with either side. Seems like he could be an easy throwaway boot for someone who doesn't want to make waves. I would not be surprised at all to see him gone pre-jury, which is sad because I kinda like him.

---

"Janelle had your back the whole time"

Julie turning that knife

---

I find it kinda ironic that Nicole lost doing the very thing that Isabella did to her last season (throwing someone under the bus who had her back) (of course, Nicole was MUCH less mean-spirited about it than Isabella was).

---

Ugh..

Even though I don't dislike Tyler this season, I'm not happy seeing this alliance win a third HoH in a row.

---

Week 2 rankings (w/change in relative placement):
1. Nicole A (+3)
2. Da'Vonne (+4)
3. Enzo (+4)
4. Janelle (-2)
5. Kevin (-4)
6. Tyler (+7)

This season is deteriorating very quickly.

---

This season is doomed.

---

Cody WISHES he was as interesting as Josh.

---

strategic threat alex

---

also does this mean ian saves the season

---

So I'm finally watching TAR11 for the first time.

Holy SHIT Eric is obnoxious, and it's only leg 2.

---

Ugh...

That was just...that's such a disappointing showing from Kevin & Drew.

This season is doomed.

Did anyone really think Ramses was going to amount to anything?

---

1. I always love when teams completely miss a clue and just do a task because they stumbled across it.
2. I love how the pitstop greeter is a little person. There's GOTTA be a fun scene with Charla at the mat.
3. EVERYONE is fucking up this leg. Like, holy crap.

---

Mirna: I have to do more than anyone else has ever had to do, to compensate for shortcomings.

Nice word choice, Mirna.

This season is deteriorating very quickly.

Agreed.

It's pretty shocking some of the stuff they are airing in 2020, and I hope it gets talked about later. Is this the first season where a house guest straight up admitted that they were voting someone out because of the color of their skin? I know it was probably meant to be shocking and controversial, but even if they are purposely waiting to talk about it later, seeing it go unchecked was a bit sickening with all that has happened this year.

There is also something that rubs me the wrong way about Julie Chen Moonves never wearing a mask, and treating everyone else in the house as if they are contagious to her, even though they were tested and have been actually quarantined, meanwhile Julie is still out in the regular world. That's just a really bad example for everyone watching, and reminds me of Trump.

---

No, there doesn't need to be a conversation about reverse racism.

---

The letter Roadblock is kinda hilarious in how it wound up being structured.

Oswald & Danny - Blake & Paige: "We love you guys!"
Eric & Danielle - Jeremy & Dani: "We love you guys!"
Teri & Ian - Flo & Zach: "We love you guys!"
Joe & Bill - Frank & Margarita: "You guys are kinda annoying, but go TAR1!"
Dustin & Kandice - Lyn & Karlyn: "You guys are kinda annoying, but got TAR10!"
Uchenna & Joyce - Susan & Patrick: "We love you guys! Also, we hate Romber!"
Charla & Mirna - Marshall & Lance: "We hate you guys!"
Rob & Amber - Susan & Patrick: "We hate you guys!"

Uchenna & Joyce aside, it's like the finishing order was predicted by just how much their previous season hated them.

---

rewatching tar11 is something i hope to never do

---

I'm getting through the final 6 double episode...like...this season has had some of the poorest course-planning the show has had since season 1's endgame.

---

Finished my TAR 2 rewatch. Updated seasons rankings & team faves !

1. TAR 2 - Oswald & Danny
2. TAR 1 - Kevin & Drew

Wil is such an unbelievable tool, and Chris & Alex kinda suck, theyre just douchier Rob & Brennan. That being said, that finale is so damn good. The stretch from the final clue to the finish line is still heart-pounding, and Blake & Paige werent as far back as I had remembered, either.

Back when I had watched the season originally, I loved Gary & Dave. They were still good and had some funny quips and moments, but werent as prominent as I remembered. I appreciated Oswald and Danny a lot more on the rewatch so they take the edge for me now. Excited to start season 3 to reexperience Flo.


---

i think wil is such a fascinating character, the disconnect between him and tara is incredibly painful but compelling, and the way it unravels at the very end is just unbelievable

tar2 kind of gets lost in the fold for me to some degree, between the big classic seasons (1 and 5) and the more modern ones, but it's quite possibly just as good if not better as the rest of them

---

100% agree, Wil and Tara definitely make the season and it wouldnt be what it is without them.

I think the race route is a bit more interesting than season 1, which is another treason why I give it an edge. Its also really fun to go back and watch these now that Ive traveled a bit since I was 12. I was in Sydney earlier this year and it was pretty cool to see them running around the city with me being able to recognize the places they were going.

---

My TAR2 ranking:

1. Oswald & Danny
2. Tara & Will
3. Gary & Dave
4. Peggy & Claire
5. Mary & Peach
6. Chris & Alex
7. Shola & Doyin
8. Deidre & Hillary
9. Cyndi & Russell
10. Hope & Norm
11. Blake & Paige

As for the TAR11 stuff, it's insane how an overbooked flight in Leg 6 causes such a dramatic gap between two groups of teams that three legs later they are still implementing the stupidest equalizers ever just to give the teams in the back a fighting chance. Just one of the many reasons why it's my least favorite season.

And I believe each team actually had two letters in the mailbag, one nice and one mean.

---

Here's why I'm not in love with that BB19 comparison. As good a character as Cody turned out to be, let's face it, the entire reason the alliance formed in the first place was because he completely pissed away his and Jessica's games in week 1 and a big part of the reason it was allowed to succeed unchecked was because there were so many people that the two of them absolutely refused to work with because they would rather have been out early and get to look like the victims than give them the satisfaction of having any control over their games, even to their own benefit. Which is absolutely not what's going on here.

That being said, I was making Tyler/Paul comparisons back in BB20, and I'm starting to feel vindicated in hating him back when everyone loved him (my goodwill towards him from last week has completely evaporated).

---

> he completely pissed away his and Jessica's games in week 1

to be a bit fair to him (just a bit), he had to nominate like 15 people that week

---

has tyler done anything evil on the feeds or do you mean him making the game boring?

---

I think he's a boring player first and foremost, but he (as did the rest of his alliance in 20) has this cocky "how dare they" attitude towards anyone in not in his alliance having the nerve to actually play the game that borders on nasty from time to time and I just find it really off-putting.

---

Well something I've realized in BB recently is everyone's been kind of spineless. I think it started post BB16. Derrick's alliance became so successful that I think most players are trying to emulate that and it's really not fun.

I started watching BB6 recently and it's really refreshing to see how their personalities actually come into play. They make flawed and interesting decisions, and you can feel how the house shifts every week and doesn't remain stagnant.

---

Yeah I mean I'll give credit where credit is due - Memphis is a huge dick but he's an interesting player. Interestingly bad, but interesting. And as long as the edit continues to paint him as a joke, I can kinda appreciate him.

---

Yeah Memphis cracks me up. He thinks he's one of the greatest players because he worked with Dan near the end of BB10

---

David is so bad at this game. Even if he hadn't been the victim of obvious bullshit last year he probably would've been out early.

---

I'm so done. Janelle totally could of stayed if people stopped trying this vote with the house bullshit
