Is anyone watching? Doesn't seem nearly as interesting as last year. Here are my Week 2 power rankings, without comments (for now).
1. Dan 2. Keesha 3. Steven 4. Jerry 5. Jessie |

Obviously, you're all too busy watching on CBS.com to post. After the third eviction (Angie), here are the power rankings.
1. Dan 2. Memphis 3. April 4. Jessie 5. Keesha
The house is full of idiots. Jessie is the strongest person and the least moral. That type of guy is always a threat, and they should have nixed him while they could. I blame Keesha for this. Memphis has a falling alliance (and just lost his biggest proponent). Unless he, Michelle or Jessie wins HOH, he's going on the block this week.

Not a fan of the people this season but ohw ell. Jesse should have went home--blame Keesha--or blame everyone for blindly following the HoH's wishes when they know better. Memphis will go home this week.

I agree that they should have sent Jessie home instead of Angie. I'm not so surprised that he stayed as I am that he got 0 votes. What is this whole respecting the HOH's wishes business? They are out of power the week after you are supposedly supposed to go along with their wishes. I can sort of understand Keesha's wish to send Angie home instead of Jessie... if Angie stays and wins HOH she almost certainly puts Keesha up next week; if Jessie wins, because Keesha has assured him he is safe, there is at least a better chance that he does not put her up if he wins HOH again. Additionally, Jessie's an idiot. It's painful listening to him put a sentence together; did you hear his goodbye message to Angie?
What are you basing your power rankings on? Any rationale for why Dan is 1? I'd argue that Ollie should be in the top 5: he has a 4-person alliance (if it hasn't already dissolved), a very strong alliance partner, and doesn't really have any enemies yet.
For future discussions, is this thread only for discussion on what CBS shows, or what has actually happened (like the HOH being won after last night's episode)?

Yeah stick to CBS. I even Tivo episodes so I see them after they air rather than after they happen. True, Ollie is a darkhorse here.
I think Dan is #1 for a few reasons - he's probably the smartest one in the house. He knew when to bail on the Bryan alliance, he's throwing competitions at precisely the right time, and he's awesome at keeping quiet. Teachers are smart, right? I think he'll win competitions when he has to.

I want to see Memphis and Jessie fight.

Dan didn't know when to bail on the Bryan situation. He gave him a vote. He's a floater and will be gone when it's time unless he joins forces. Until then he will continue to float. It's not a bad plan...for now.
Ollie is the only one thus far who truly doesn't have a target. But he will when they go to put him and April up together.

This is the worst group of people they've put together. Talk about a bunch of idiots. Angie was the only person I liked. Last season's cast was fun to watch. The season before was my favorite. Overall, this group just flat out sucks.

This is how most of the reality series start for me. Never really a fan at the begining of the season but then they grow on you and it gets more interesting. Alot of the time on Survivor, Big Brother, and Amazing Race that's how I am. P

I was talking 8. Daniele. Easily my least favorite, but nice to look at.
This year? No such thing. Amber would probably be the 2nd hottest one this season, and she was like 5th hottest that season, crying and all.

Yeah that was 2 seasons ago and I htought Dannielle wasn't great at all. Too skinny and as soon as she talked, err whined, you instantly got sick. Jessica was by far better. This year, I guess Keesha is the best looking though none are that good.

I agree with Punk... I don't really see what the problem with this cast is. There's plenty of drama and fights and good competition, what more can you ask for?
BH, you are nuts. Suggesting Amber would be the 2nd hottest this year implies that you think she's hotter than either April or Keesha. Now, those two may not be as hot as either Jen from the past 2 season's, but they're still pretty hot and definitely hotter than Amber. I'd rank Angie ahead of Amber also, and maybe even give the edge to Michelle. Heck, Amber only barely edges Renny in my book.

Angie is the best looking one of this year's group. Not even close. Keesha is a distance second and that's where it ends.
At this point, I'm rooting for Keesha or Memphis. If those two get the boot, I don't know who I'd go for.

The people this time are so whiney and annoying so far. It's all bleeps when Libra starts lieing about what she DID say. It's all crying when Michelle doesn't get anything, or when Keesha lies about stuff on her birthday. This is just the TV that annoys me and turns me off.

Michelle is an idiot. She was cheering when Memphis got the POV prize. No wonder she's aligned with Jessie.
Dan is smart. Wicked smart. And what happens when America tells him to vote for Jessie? Who's going to get blamed for the mystery vote? Keesha? Libra? I really hope Libra gets HOH next so we can see where her loyalties lie. I can't imagine she'd put Keesha up. And if so, then who else?

What makes you think that it's going to be 1 vote for Jessie? How would Keesha vote for Memphis after all her crap? Most likely Dan's vote will be the swing vote here.

For Jessie: Keesha, Renny, Dan
For Memphis: Jerry, Ollie, Michelle
You think Libra votes for Memphis? Or more importantly, I think Keesha goes with the HOH and Renny follows her. I could see a 6-1 vote, with Dan being the 1, but Keesha and Libra fighting over who it was...

At this point I think the vote is going to go...
Jesse - Keesha, Libra and Kenny
Memphis - Jerry, Michelle and Ollie
Making Dan (America's Choice) the swing vote. That is probably the worst case for Dan since it would then be looked like he joined one of those two alliances. Where if it was a 6-1 vote he could play it off easier.

Right. I think Dan might be in trouble. The best part is, everything is all mixed up now. I only see two alliances - Ollie/April and Keesha/Renny. Every single other person in the house has reasons to hate all the others.
The good news is that Jessie's out. I don't especially hate any of the others at this point. Sure, I'm not too fond of Michelle, but...
New power rankings? April's obviously still #1 and I doubt Michelle guns for her. Ollie probably goes #2. The double-cross puts Memphis at #3 and then I'll put Dan at #4 since he can probably win a competition if he needs to.
Looks like we're going to get Big Brother Classic on Sunday, including hot but stupid Jen from season 8. Mike Boogie was pictured, but will Will show?

Wow, for a second I thought Dan was a genius. Obviously, Ollie didn't come up with the nomination himself - I bet Michelle told him who to pick.
I think Dan's still in decent shape, considering. The best thing for him is probably for himself to win POV and take Memphis off, then let Ollie put Keesha up (although then she's after Dan).
What do the power rankings look like now? I guess Keesha is looking good if she can survive the POV this week. And Michelle really doesn't have many enemies.

What a week. The double elimination came at just the right time. The producers are smart.
Jerry's smart too, but I'd have taken it one further. I'd have put up Renny and Memphis. Dan and Keesha are stronger players, and to stay, Jerry needs the alliance that gets broken up to have it's stronger player remain. That way, that person can win the next HOH and put both of the opposing alliance on the block. If Keesha goes home, then either Dan or Memphis wins the next HOH (Renny has no shot) and Renny goes home then Jerry goes home. If Dan goes home, Keesha probably wins the next HOH and Memphis goes next, then Jerry.
BUT, if Renny goes home, Keesha can still win HOH, at which time she puts Dan and Memphis on the block, and then also tries to eliminate the other one. Ditto for Jerry going home and Dan winning HOH.
Of course, this assumes a lot, but I don't think it's unreasonable. As it stands now, Dan's the best in competitions and you have to like his chances to get off the block this week.

Jerry isn't smart at all but he has little hope and he's grasping for straws. I admire him for thinking he can make a deal with Memphis--the strongest player. I mean realistically, since he can't compete next week, he's likely going home unless he can with the Veto. Renny can't compete at all, so I see why she isn't up. But the veto winner has all the power this week. Memphis ahs said that he won't see any of these people after the show and he doesn't care. He can be less trusted than Dan. Memphis has deals with everyone but Renny. Keesha has deals with everyone but Jerry. Dan has a deal with Memphis and a loose agreement with Keesha and Renny but Renny backed out pretty quickly it seems--pulling Keesha with her. Also Renny and Keesha also seem to be already backstabbing each other.
I assumed it would be Memphis and Dan OTB this week. But Jerry and Renny are loose cannons. Since Memphis and Dan are most likely to win the veto, by one of them coming off the block, Jerry then has two people to choose from to go off. BUt by not having Memphis OTB, if he wins he can take one of them off--which means Renny goes up. SInce Memphis and Renny don't care for each other, that means Renny would go home. Since Dan is Jerry's target, Memphis should have went up with him. But Jerry thinks he has a deal...so I guess I cna't blame him.
Now if Memphis wins the veto and takes Dan down--which is the plan--Renny goes home. If Dan wins the veto--Renny goes up just because Jerry has a deal with Memphis and she goes home. If Memphis did go up, the vote is split and Jerry sends Keesha home because of their deal after the tie.
My prediction. Either Dan or Memphis wins veto and Renny goes home. Then Jerry goes home next week. Final 2 will prob be Dan and Memphis. Keesha could surprise but Dan is the best at endurances. Guess I'm pulling for Dan, but not sure how he could win the game with so many people irkd at him.

If I'm Jerry, I want either Keesha or Dan and then two from the other alliance. That way it's me and Keesha or me and Dan against 2 others, and I have a decent chance at final 3.

I really don't see how Dan doesn't win. I thought Memphis, if he won the final HoH, might stab Dan in the back and take Jerry to the final 2 for an easier win. I really don't see why he would think his chances are better with Dan than with Jerry. Perhaps people would feel sorry for Jerry or give it to him for being 75 and making the final 2, but those are maybes. Memphis vs Dan, it seems like they played similar games but Dan did everything better and won HoH's, so he'd get the edge among voters.
The only things I can think are that either Memphis thought he'd likely get 2nd no matter what, or that he thinks he has the votes. Perhaps he thinks Ollie and April will both definitely vote for him over Dan, and that Michelle will too since she was back doored. He's gotta figure Keesha and Renny will vote for Dan. Jerry claimed he could be the tie breaker, but I can see him voting for Memphis and making Libra the tie breaker, since I can't really remember her even talking to either Memphis or Dan.
Re: Keesha, I'm not so much surprised Memphis voted her out as I am that he said nothing about it. Though it was likely a lost vote regardless, I might have tried to explain that it wasn't just his doing, but a concocted plan on both his and Dan's part. Dan seemed to isolate himself completely from the decision, and pinned all the blame on Memphis. I really thought that in his goodbye message to Keesha at the end, Memphis might have mentioned that Dan played a role in all this as well. I just remember how mad Ryan got when Adam hinted to Natalie that he voted for her to stay, and wondered why Memphis wasn't more angered by Dan's message and whisper.

Just quoting post 1:
1. Dan 2. Memphis 3. April 4. Jessie 5. Keesha
And I'll stand by that. April and Jessie (and Keesha) were strong players eliminated because they were strong.
I agree that Memphis should have said something to Keesha. Dan even covered his tracks and told her about the trip. You could see Michelle and Keesha, for two, seemed pretty impressed.
I disagree about Memphis beating Jerry. I don't think it would have happened. Memphis wasn't going to win either way.
I realized last night that there's a Showtime preview going on right now - the most boring week of the season. I've watched the last two nights and it's amazing how much they actually talk, even though there are only two people in the house. They seem bored, but they've talked about some pretty interesting things. Tonight, they're debating making Renegade T-shirts.

BB didn't allow Memphis to tell Keesha.
Memphis had deals with everyone. Jerry wins if he's in the final 2 as he didn't ahve any enemies.
Dan has enemies. Memphis has less. Maybe one less. Dan really needs Michelle to flip and vote for him as a good game play decision to backdoor her.
April, Ollie, Michelle and Jerry likley to vote for Memphis
Keesha, Libra and Renny likley to vote for Dan.
Michelle really is the swing vote. There is no way April, Ollie or Jerry are voting for Dan. Dan played the best game. But even though he won 3 HoHs and played the game really well, Memphis also won a lot of PoVs and played the game. Memphis was more deceitful, but I guess that is the game. In the end, the best two players are in the final two and that's what counts.

I watched a smidge of it on After Dark last night and Dan thinks that Libra will vote for Memphis.
Here is his take for the vote tonight:
Memphis for sure: Ollie, Jerry, Libra Dan for sure: Keesha, Renny
Up in the air: Michelle, April
Ollie will do anything April tells him to do. Perhaps they had their little talk last night and Dan feels Libra isn't voting for him. I thought for sure she would.
I won't be bothered by who wins it, bu if I had a vote, it would be for Dan.

Yea, he said Memphis had this thing in the bag, or something. Pretty stupid statement I thought at the time, as so much has to go right for someone to get to the final 2. Even if you thought Memphis had a good shot and was a strong player, its ridiculous to think its a no brainer at that point in time.
