amyco Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 It's over already? Seems like they just started. I admit, I don't really understand the whole game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenn- Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Nope. You weren't the only one. I am glad the person who won did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs. Hound Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I am a Big Brother addict! But sadly, I missed half of the season. The last episode I watched was when I was in labor:tongue_smilie:Im so sad I missed the rest.. I look forward to BB all year... (Yes, pathetic, I know :) ) So who won!??

2_girls_mommy Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Another BB addict here. I watched it in the hospital after having both of my dds :) My girls were glad Ian won. I don't know. I thought Dan kind of deserved it. He managed to turn it around so many times. But 2nd place isn't bad. I was glad Frank won the people's favorite $ too.

Mrs. Hound Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Wow I can't believe that! I thought Shane would win it all. I never in a million years thought it would be Ian, lol. The game obviously did a 360 after I stopped watching! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAPeachie Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Big Brother is the one show I count down to every year. I love it. I even streamed it to the hospital when I was put on hospital bedrest! LOL! I am not too shocked about who won. The 2nd place person did play a very strategic game but no one could get over how "wronged" they felt to see that the strategy was exactly that: Strategy to win a game.

2_girls_mommy Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 If you missed the last few weeks, it would be worth it (to me) to go back and see them on hulu. Dan ran the game w/out winning POV or HOH. He managed to dominate everyone constantly and got them to do whatever he planned. I don't know how it worked. It was the wildest thing. In the end they were all mad at him, and didn't vote for him. But he worked for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenn- Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I kind of compare Dan's game play to that of Russell Frantz from Survivor. Yes, both made it to the end of the game, but neither remembered that the jury would rather give the money to an undeserving person (not that Ian was undeserving), than a snake. I applaud Dan for saving his own neck so many times, but he really pissed a lot of people off on the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end they were all mad at him, and didn't vote for him. But he worked for it. Exactly. He out-played all of them, without winning any of the contests. In my mind, he was the smartest player. I think the rest of the jury was mad/embarrassed that he made it look so easy to manipulate them. Was his gameplay nice? No. But it was a game. A game where backstabbing/dishonesty is expected. I did not like Ian. I did not like Frank. From other things I've read, it sounds like there was a lot of cheating going on behind the scenes, with producers influencing the outcomes :mad: ETA: glad to see I am not the only one who watches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Dan not winning events, that is his strategy (well less so this time). He threw every competition in his first season and anyone playing against him now would have to wonder if he did throw some of them on purpose. I'm not convinced he didn't throw the stage 3 of the HOH so he wouldn't have to be the one to kick Danielle out. He was confident Ian would be taking him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TranquilMind Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 (edited) Big Brother 14 that is :leaving: This was the best season ever, and we've watched them all. I was especially glad that this season was about gameplay, instead of romances. There wasn't anything inappropriate that our son couldn't see, for a change! Awesome. I'm so glad that Ian won. He was our favorite from the beginning. Sure, Dan was an amazingly manipulative player, but he forgot that you still have to have friends in the jury at the end. If you backstab everyone, no one will vote for you. It was pretty amazing that he talked other players into doing what he wanted, but in the end, the nice® guy won. And the smartest, so that's a plus for me. Edited September 21, 2012 by TranquilMind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs. Hound Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 If they would have brought her back as a coach, I wouldn't have watched this season. I said the same thing! Although I didnt end up watching the second half of the season anyway.. but it wasnt by choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenn- Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Please tell me she didnt make an appearance? :glare: Ian opened Pandora's Box with the promise of a message from someone that loved him. They were showing a picture of his parents so he opened it up. He was subjected to Rachael at her whiniest voice via video telling him how much she loved him and an assortment of annoying information. Don't worry, they didn't subject the viewers to much of it.

Mrs. Hound Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 :svengo: She just doesn't stay gone. So thankful I missed it. I don't think I could have survived hearing her voice.. Or that laugh... oh Gosh, that LAUGH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
