Is the Big Brother franchise losing the plot globally?
Tweet from @superTV247: “Big Brother Australia “called a random fan” who registered their number and LET THEM EVICT SOMEONE. They gave one fan.. the sole power.. to evict a Housemate. Well hats off to #BBUK who no longer hold the title for worst twist in Big Brother history I guess. #BBAU”

This really hurts my heart. MC deserved better. #Survivor49

Response from MC: "So I went to Jawan, I told him this exact feeling. I said, “Hey, I’m having an out of game conversation with you right now. This could break my game. But I want to let you know what Sophie said. And I want to let you know why I’m not going to go with it. And if she tries it, I’m going to vote with you and vote against her.” So when I told him that, he freaked out, and he started running and talking to other people, even though he said he wasn’t going to. And then that’s what kind of made it messy and sloppy, and that’s when maybe the vote ended up turning on me. I don’t know what people’s thought process was. So he ended up coming back and telling me, like, “Hey, they’re gonna vote for you.” He let me know; it wasn’t a surprise at tribal council. And so I was asking him to kind of plead my case. I was telling him, “I just told you this information. Fight for me. Try to make the vote not on me. I’m willing to vote for Sophie, who is my ally, to protect you.” And then they were kind of spooked by Savannah coming, and they were spooked by Rizo trying to potentially play his idol."

Well look at that, the people I'm rooting for in #TAR38 and life 🥹

Don't even care if it's mean: either the producers are the stupiest working in reality TV or they think their audience is the stupidest. Ashley and Will went on the block *after having no chance to play for HOH*. That's supposed to be BB?

Just zero sense about the mechanics of their own game. #bb27
Article text: "Grodner points to how the eventual season winner approached the chain, taking a completely different tack than Rachel. 'Look at Ashley. Ashley was part of that same alliance that Rachel was in, but yet no one said to put her in the wheel. Why was that? I think that the way that you worked those intervals was critical in terms of your survival during the White Locust twist. So I do think there's a social element.'"

Chelsie's (self-)righteous tweeting can be kinda much, but gotta agree with her on this minus the obvious M*tt outlier. It's also kind of weird that they've started making laps around the podcast/event circuit before the main players get to integrate (and clock some of them). #bb27
Tweet from Chelsie Baham: "I'm grateful for how my season's pre jurors handled themselves while we were still in the house #bb26 #bb27"

The only ones that got some movement from me, tbqh. Good comics gotta get a little risky in the shade. #bb27
BB comic titled "Keanu the Butt-ler," featuring an ass-up Keanu with an explosion from his behind so powerful a man is blown backward in the background. Pigs in a blanket (including one with the face of famed pig Kenney from BB26) fly from a tray a white-gloved Keanu holds. The foreground tagline at the bottom reads "Putting the ASS in ASSASSIN." BB comic of Morgan titled "Morgue-an." In a morgue/lair, comic Morgan holds open the door to a shelved corpse in a black catsuit with a gray crack-like pattern, bared upper arms, and a skull on the chest. A well of skulls sits to her left in the foreground, while two pigs (one large and one small) are in silhouette in the background. The foreground tagline reads: "DOING THE HOG FATHER'S DIRTY WORK."

The HELL, Ava???? Rachel literally just pulled her like Michael tugged Taylor and Alyssa before his eviction! You…girl, this is BB life or DEATH! #bb27

I don't think a battle back solves the problem, but this from Rockstar is worth noting for those saying the call to Brendon suggests the elimination is permanent. #bb27
Tweet from Angela Rockstar: "My Mom said when I was evicted they called to let her know…Mom said she said to producers, 'well maybe they’ll be a battle back?' They said nothing and then the next week called and told her 'there WILL be a battle back.' So yes they make the calls, and yes they can switch up"

When Julie posted "it's like you're watching two different shows," she must have meant the pre-jury show and whatever the hell this new jury show is. Because what do you mean there was a non-vote elimination AND an HOH comp *at the start of jury* with eligible players not competing?? #bb27
Tweet from @BB_Updates: "Ashley to Will- I did not want to listen to her (Morgan) complain another second. I think she realized. I just was giving one word. You're one of the three people who competed. Me and Will didnt even get to compete for HoH, and your ass threw a comp. Now she is so mad at herself. You know what I want to say? You should be mad. You thought you were safe #BB27"

Taylor said all that needs to be said (plus it's not just weird but obsessive and predatory). It needs to be posted and reposted at the start of every season because people get this way every. single. time. #bb27
Post from Taylor Hale: Just a reminder that people's personal lives are not your personal bank of drama and entertainment. Publicly hunting down, demanding answers from, and even worse: creating your own fan fiction about people who aren't on TV to satisfy your own curiosity will always be weird.

Wait, is Keanu a dancer?? These are modern/contemporary warm-ups. 😮 Was wondering how he hit this stretch so smoothly. #bb27

People who could've sat there and ate their food but decide to step in it with no clue how the show Big Brother works, why the volume of posts is so large, or why there are so many BB fans on Bsky.
Post from Jenn oF Ark: "@bsky.app Is anyone looking into the obvious bots all over the platform pimping Big Brother? Seriously, there is no human whose primary interest in life is Big Brother. There are hordes of them and this is all they post about"

Danielle talking sense in the other place. If this is going to be the new trend in BB, go back to all-cast juries. #bb27
Tweet from Danielle Reyes: "Is it just me or is it weird when they talk about who they want in jury? Shouldn't it be 'I don't care who goes, as long as it''s not me'? The goal is to WIN, not hand out jury spots like they're prizes. I get jury management, but this mindset is wild to me."

Mickey's dethroning of Rylie's HOH is the universe finally providing justice for Jeff's coup d'etat of Chima's. Just need a repeat of Chima's post-takeover crashout and ejection from Rylie and this week will be absolute perfection. If we're bringing back BB10-14, let's bring back BB10-14. #bb27
