    I'm glad Ian won. If Dan had one, that would be just disgusting. One of the only times I've ever been happy about who won.

    Big brother also saved 100K this season just because the coaches wanted in. I think CBS and BB producers could afford higher prizes really, cheap bastards!

    What I can't believe is Danielle still voted for Dan in the end..... Where did she leave her brain?

    I am glad Ian won also.

    Two big shockers, so far this season. First, Elissa is just a prettier, nicer, less annoying version of her more famous sister, Rachael! Who would have guessed it? :D

    And what's up with Aaryn's openly racist comments? Is she insane? Does she not know that those quotes are going to cause serious problems for her in real life? And has she not noticed that the show's host is Oriental-American? I can't wait to see Julie pounce her!

    My favorite BB15 character is Helen. If I was playing the game, I hope that I could play it just like she has so far, with intelligence and class.

    Elissa is really a nice person, not like her sister who was way to over bearing. I like her. I would have to agree with you though because right now I really like Helen and hope that she wins.

    I can't imagine what would prevent it. He has no deals to offer.

    If not him, I wouldn't miss anyone who is nominated this week.

    I can't remember another season where I've agreed so totally and completely with all the evictions. (Did I just jinx myself?)

    I like Spencer and Howard, but both are likely to go home in a week or two because they've been caught in too many lies. Also, Kaitlin is the hottest girl in the house, but she knows it, so her attitude is going to continue to work against her.

    I'm sick of all this hatred toward Aaryn really. People want her beat up and raped by blacks, it's sick. People over-react and assume she's racist. I've not heard one actual racist comment from Aaryn yet. Sure I've seen her be hateful towards black and white people. Hateful IS NOT necessarily Racist. Have people become so hypersensitive they can't even distinguish real racist comments?

    A real racist comment would be something like, "No blacks allowed in my house regardless if they're drug dealers or doctors". Real racism is unwavering bias toward all people of a race and the inability to look past stereotypes on an individual basis. Calling a black person hard to see in the dark is not racist. For starters it's not even directed towards a whole race but one person. Secondly, if I said "black people are hard to see in the dark". Is that even racist? It's simply a general statement of a race feature, where exactly is the derogatory sentiment in that statement? There is none. Thirdly if your offence to a statement depends on who says it (i.e. blacks can say a word but whites can not) then your offence is the action that is in fact racist.

    Nothing I've seen has shown Aaryn demonstrating REAL racism. Apparently she's the only person on the planet who's not allowed to make fun of Asian stereotypes. I've seen countless comedians imitate Asians, I've imitated Asians, I've imitated comedians imitating Asians... she clearly looked like she was trying to be funny, not hateful, in that instance.

    People need to stop being such hypersensitive assuming bitches. Assume makes a racist ASS out of U not ME! And please backdoor that nasty assuming "Bitch lips" Elissa out of the damn house!

    Amanda needs to go soon and I was wanting Helen to win but now I wonder what the Hell I was thinking. I have no favorite at this time, maybe Judd but then again he is just another floater and not playing to hard.

    I think this is more funny than offensive myself...

    No question these girls are offensive, rude and ignorant. I don't believe they are truly racist, this is just BS, indiscriminate personal shit talking that I think most people of all races do in various levels.

    It's like they forget sometimes that there are cameras everywhere, 24/7. How can that happen?

    Maybe they have friends and relatives that think their jokes are funny, but how can they be stupid enough to not realize there are millions of people out there who aren't laughing? They are old enough to know better. Apparently, their parents didn't teach them any social skills.

    That's for the American version. Several countries have their own version, some with a lot more sex and nudity than the US show.

    Ever heard of the book 1984 by George Orwell?

    Edit: Not only have Aaryn, Gina Marie, and Amanda already been fired from their regular jobs for making racist comments on the show, but now Spencer is being investigated by law enforcement for his comments about child pornography! The epic meltdown continues!

    I don't know where Spencer's head was at when he made the child porn comment. That was sick and the only other thing that really bothered me was Amanda and Spencer talking about knocking Jessie's teeth out and raping her. Absolutely sick and disgusting but do I think they were serious? Not at all. Everything else I kind of found funny. I'm no psychologist but I think the disgusting shit talk is a reaction against the sensitive people like Elissa.

    I can see how someone in a situation where they're stuck with a sensitive annoying person and joking around and tell Helen to go cook some rice. Then this sensitive bitch lips over reacts about it. So then they're like "oh you don't like that, just wait till you hear what I'm going to say about gays, or puppies, or babies..." and it just snowballs into more and more disgusting shit talk and turns into almost a competition like thing of who can say the most nasty disgusting thing.

    He also made a comment, maybe not serious (I haven't heard it in context) about smoking weed while on the job. He's a union member, so the railroad can't pursue termination until he gets out of the house. But you can be sure they will. Running a train while high can kill lots of people.

    That will most likely make him the fourth member of this season's cast to lose his regular job over unwise comments.

    I really can't imagine any scenario that would lead to me saying that to her. I think she's very smart and has a great attitude.

    But...they're being seen all over the world, online, by all kinds of people! How can they forget that, for even a second?

    During season one, Big Brother staff talked a lot about possible mental effects of prolonged isolation from society. This is the first season that I've seen a BB cast appear to start losing touch with reality, in any significant way. And we have a lot of weeks left to go.

    It's supposed to be a secret, but they're already sneaking a psychologist in to see Gina Marie regularly. Probably, half the cast needs to be getting professional help.

    It doesn't matter if the viewers like or dislike them or actually care about the people in this show. If you follow it you have bought into it. The makers don't want anything else. What would make people watch a so called 'reality show'? Most often controversial people or comments and shocking behaviour. So if I'd produce a show like this I'd probably cast some low on ethics individuals that are willing to behave like that to attract idiot viewers.
