I’m dying lol Of course he won. This freaking season man. It is pretty amusing but also like wtf can NO ONE else win HOH?! Out of the 10 people left, only Felicia and Cory have won HOH aside from Cameron. And Cory's was so quick and sort of nullified that it feels like it barely counts. Oh it’s completely ridiculous. I can’t keep up with the stats for this season but I think I remember Taran saying SEVERAL comps ago that the men have won 12/14 or 15 comps this season, and it’s mostly been the same 4-5 guys over and over and over. He was saying 50% of the comps are geared towards the physically fit men, and then the other 50% are winnable by anyone, which gives the men another 25% chance of winning. Even this latest comp was designed poorly because while it included a puzzle, apparently cardio was an extremely important component. I wish they could go back to more (all) comps being winnable by anyone - estimation, counting, did something happen before/after, etc. Those last two especially are comps able to be won by anyone at all. Do more of those, while occasionally throwing in a puzzle, or something muscular based, or cardio. This is the 25th season for God’s sake - the amount of available past competitions is in the hundreds, plus anything new they can come up with.

In more expect the expected news, Cameron won veto. It is comical at this point. Whoever wins HOH next week better back door him or he’s gonna win this whole game. And honestly, it would be well deserved.

It looks like Matt (and Blue) are really pushing hard for a Cory backdoor and Cameron is thinking he might do it. I think it would be taking Meme down and putting up Cory. Jag is trying to go against it, but he is fighting a losing battle right now. Matt is gunning hard for Cory.

Cory was incredibly close to being backdoored. It basically came down to Jag convincing Matt it wasn’t the way to go. He started getting Matt thinking that Blue is getting close with Cirie, can’t be trusted as much, and Blue wants Cory out. If Cory is evicted this week, then Blue is going to come after them Jag/Matt/Cam instead of Cory. This finally got Matt to step back from pushing Cory, because HE wants to be the one close to Cirie, so he feels like leaving Cory and Blue in the house will allow them to go after each other before turning on Matt/Jag. Once Matt stopped pushing it to Cameron and started supporting Jag, Cameron said he didn’t want to do Blue’s dirty work, so late late late last night, Cameron decided to go back to not using the veto.
Apparently Felicia threw Cory and America UTB during her veto plea (which we never see on the show anymore), because she was thinking there was a good chance the veto was going to be used to BD Cory. That didn’t happen, so now she just sort of exploded and nothing came of it, but Cory and America are very likely to VTE Felicia this week.

I laughed when Cory & America were talking about the Constitution. There are some people who are just naturally good at all comps whether they are physical or not (like Cameron, Tyler, Boston Rob on Survivor) but agree that these are a little more physical this year where I see it and immediately say "Cirie and Felicia don't stand a chance". Like you know we still got BB Comics and Otev coming up which are a lot of running.

Not a Cameron fan in the slightest, but I can see why he wanted to evict Felicia. She will never vote for him to win and it leaves Cory, as big a fish to fry, in the house. I think everyone plays VETO from this point out so GL to the others to try to oust him at this point. Although, in fairness, he would be gone but for the stupid zombie twist.

Once Felicia goes, there will still be 9 people left so still a few weeks before everyone plays veto. But Cameron has basically gotten himself into the same position that Michael did last year, though with less wins than Michael. Lol. He has to win or his allies have to win everything from now on or he’s toast.

Looks like they are saving the actual dramatic part for Thursday’s episode.

spicysalmonroll I think her speech came out of no where so it’s more of the fallout from her speech that was fighting. Also, they (of course) didn’t really get any of the fighting on the feeds, but America was the one who sort of got into it with Felicia a bit (or maybe more just defending them/Cory). Also because of the way they edited the episode it really didn’t emphasize how close cory was to going up. They of course did their normal ‘will they won’t they’, but they often do that from one brief statement someone makes when you know there is no chance. Cory was going up when they watched that movie the night before the ceremony.. it was discussed pretty much all day on Sunday.

I was dying when Felicia went crazy looking for A SECOND pile of hair, and then walked out of the house. 💀 I really don’t want to see her go this week because she is TV gold.

I couldn't believe she DQed herself. Had she not gotten lost and confused, she probably would have done well because she did seem pretty unphased by the scary shit. Every year I always say that I'd do terribly in the black box competitions because I haaaate haunted house shit. It would trigger me so hardcore that I'd have to DQ myself unless my ass was really on the line.

It looks like Meme is the one going home tonight. For some reason Cory and America think keeping Felicia is better for their game (I think they think they have a better chance of beating Felicia at comps down the road than they do Meme). I’m here for it!
Meme was a huge disappointment. She seemed to immediately clock that the HGs were all crazy, but she did nothing the entire game. And if her goal was to blend in all season, boring but ok, except when she was finally brought into the spotlight this week and it was finally THE time to make some moves and speak up, she again did nothing. Her storage room rants really got the fandom going in the beginning, but she ended up being a huge flop.

I was really rooting for Meme as I loved her initial promise and comments to the camera about how everyone was nuts but she fizzled.
Felicia is entertaining and it will make Cam furious so I'm for her staying.

I guess I feel like any winner after my favorite winner of all time, Taylor, is going to be a letdown. Dan is my next favorite winner but Taylor truly transcended the game.
I just re-watched her finale speech and yep, I'm pretty much Joseph all over again.

Felicia is entertaining and it will make Cam furious so I'm for her staying. Cam already knows. I popped into the feeds last night and caught him, Cory, Matt & Jag talking about. They want to keep Felicia because they think she will be easier to beat in comps. Tonight's HOH comp is a quiz with questions about the evicted HG's. They were studying last night & this morning.

Also I love that Julie finally figured out how to ask the question leading into the Cirie and Jared reveal so that people don't think it's a romantic relationship and it's the last time she'll get to ask it until the finale.

Bowie Jane won that competition with a guess that 27 minutes are in a full, 7 day week.
(I realize she changed it to 627 before it was called, but STILL).

I can’t believe Bowie Jane won! Honestly I hope she does something interesting. Finally a shakeup in who gets to decide. Unless she just lets one of the guys run her HOH for her.

Oh I’m SO excited to see what Bowie Jane does! Every single person in the house think they have control of her, so I’m excited to see what her cards are! I’m thinking Cam will remind her they were the only two left out of the Red vote, and she will align with him, but I really don’t know! It’s always fun to get someone as HOH that is a total wild card, especially when they are an underdog and no one sees them as a real player. Go Bowie Jane!

And to me, her answer was totally fine. It was clear she had no idea and knew she wouldn’t have time to determine a good answer, especially when your nerves are fried, so she literally just wrote the first tiny number she thought of that wasn’t 0. When Felicia got yelled at multiple times, she probably thought I might as well make it a little bigger, but still didn’t want to go over. I’m here for it.
I love math, but I know without a doubt, fast minute math on a televised show when my nerves are at a 100 out of 10, I wouldn’t be able to handle preschool math let alone multiplication on top of multiplication.

And another thing - Meme’s exit. To me, that was insanely embarrassing. Girl, you’ve done NOTHING the entire game. Where was that energy for the last week when your game was on the line? SO dumb. No one cares. Cory and America have been called out by multiple people. They are already targets. She looked ridiculous IMO. And her refusal to hug Cory - get over yourself. It’s one thing to have been burned like Izzy but she at least fought like hell to stay, but to have done nothing? It looks like she would have been the bitter jury member and it’s good that she is gone. Cory didn’t play her anymore than anyone else in the house IMO. The only thing she was to anyone in the game was a number on eviction night.

Is Matt ever not with a dental flosser? That would be a good drinking game! I can't wait to see what Bowie does. I think I've been less interested this season as well.
