Also, black male HOH two weeks in a row. And if Brent goes home that’s 3 white guys in a row. What a season!

It's really incredible to see how much a change in casting improved the game, as we all expected that it would. I also find the cast so likeable as a whole. There are definite exceptions, but the past few seasons there have been a small number of people I wanted to be successful in the game and enjoyed watching. Now, the people I don't like/enjoy are in the minority.

I loved seeing everyone smile/cheer silently when Brent went out. I think an Xavier HOH is something no one really planned for, not sure where he stands with the house plans to kick out Brent/Whit. I think he's for it since he was part of that queens and kings alliance. A lot of them had previously talked about throwing the comp so I was really trying to see if they were. I think they wanted Azah to win. I thought it was interesting they all went out on the question after Whitney was out. No clue if that was on purpose or not. I just wasn't sure if he was completely on board or not with the alliance agenda since he's pretty quiet in the house in general. I expect that he will though since it seems silly to go against the entire rest of the house. Not sure about everyone, but Derek X and Hannah intentionally went out on that last question. They both mouthed stuff to the camera to show that it was on purpose.

But you never know when they are telling someone the truth and just feeding them what they want to hear!

I thought the conversation between Kyland and SB was so sweet. It’s so nice to see houseguests being so genuinely kind to each other.
I’m frustrated with Hulu though. Does anyone else here watch BB recorded on a Hulu cloud DVR? I have had an issue with the last two episodes where I start fast forwarding through the live tv ads and then there are two random spots in the recording where they insert 4:30 of non-fast forwarded ads and when I try to skip them, it puts me like 2 or 3 min into the show after it started again from the commercial break. It’s super weird and annoying. Nothing I could find on Google about this specific issue with BB. We have the enhanced cloud DVR so we shouldn’t have this problem. Anyone else experiencing this?

willow, that was a really sweet convo between them. and I thought Frenchie's departure was as smooth and respectful as ever there was one, especially considering I was expecting him to blow someone's game up on his way out the door. Too many "I love you" messages after 16 days of knowing one another, but, whatever. Sorry for your Hulu issue, that's annoying as all. I was having a similar issue with Alone, the Hulu episodes ended like 5 minutes before the show was ended, so I missed A LOT and switched the way I finished watching that season.

Right now it seems the plan is to get rid of Brent as long as he doesn’t win veto.
Man if he goes this week, Christian will be the only white man in the house. That is so amazing.

As much as I don't love unanimous house votes... If he still really thinks he's getting a 5-4 vote by Thursday, it would be funny to watch his shock.

Britni is falling apart. I know she is on the spectrum, so I feel bad picking apart her reactions, but from a game perspective she is just tanking.

Oh god I would die. I have the worst motion sickness and such anxiety about vomiting. I hate when they do that comp.

Speaking of Britini, someone on Twitter mentioned that they can’t help but pronounce/“hear” her name like ‘martini’ in their head when they read it, because of the way it is spelled, and now I am doing the same thing every time I read it.
Now I am sharing this here so it will happen to all of you too 😏

After watching the episode, I feel like Britini tanked her own chances for the win by panicking and making that math error. I understand that the betrayal of Tiffany and Derek X working together was the bigger complaint, but she could have knocked one of them out right there and possibly gone on to pull out the win.

Ooooh Britni - all she needs to do is settle down and chill out. She absolutely cannot seem to do so.
I’m really happy Azah didn’t find herself on the block next to Brent. Feel badly for Britni if you must, but your heart not being able to handle her crying is NOT a reason to put yourself in danger.

I’m catching up on BB today after being in an Olympics hole all weekend. Frenchy’s exit interview with RHAP is something.

I loved the whole planning of the wildcard comp and how it worked perfectly. I also enjoyed the montage of all the women being disgusted by Brent, lol. Something we don't often see in this show. I am really enjoying how things are happening so far. I do wonder how much of the show she watched before hand, because I'm sorry Britini this is just how the show goes and she is taking it far too personally. I do wonder if her being on the spectrum impacts her emotions and reactions. It certainly would be harder to navigate the house where so much of the game is interpersonal interactions/communication and it is harder by default to engage in those for her.

mathlete, Brent is SUCH A TOOL. I cannot stand him. I said the EXACT same thing last episode and it’s only gotten worse from there. How did we ever survive the seasons where there were multiple Brents?
