Is anyone else watching? What are y'all thoughts?
Personally, I don't know who I'm rooting for yet. Definitely not Aaryn, who is completely vile. Unfortunately, this cast has a lot of racists/homophobes/sexists/ignoramuses.

I like Nick and Helen as of right now. Aaryn is pretty disgusting and so is GinaMarie. David, Spencer, and Jeremy have also supposedly said some bad things, too. I don't remember what David or Jeremy have said, but I do know Jeremy drops shorts and wiped his bare ass with Elisa's hat. Spencer called Andy "Kermit the Fag" when Andy was dressed in green. Apparently, Spencer was joking with Andy and Andy didn't seem to mind. If they have that type of relationship where Spencer can say that to Andy and Andy takes absolutely no offense cause it's just in good humor between two friends, then I won't mind that Spencer said it. I personally don't feel like I'd ever be comfortable with anyone saying that word to me, but that's just me.
But, back to the positives. Nick is so adorable and he seems to be staying out of the disgusting prejudice being displayed this season. If he gets hated this season, it'll be for playing strategically. He just seems really excited to be there and make his mark. Helen will definitely be a UTR player. Not just because she's not one of the typical Barbie people BB likes to cast and focus on, but also just because of what her skill sets are. She is going to be great at mediating relationships between people. She won't be a leader and no one will view her as one. She'll get through by being great at managing relationships between the various houseguests.

I hate the huge all male alliances typically (and the names....moving company? Seriously?). But this time it's so much better than the alternative. The girls are pretty horrendous this year...except for Amanda and Helen....hell and Elissa.

Sadly, Elissa is one of the better women this season.
I actually like the name The Moving Company. And I also tend to hate the all-male alliances, too, but this alliance has some of the better people in it, so I'm with them for now.

(I have the cast list open on another window because I haven't gotten their names pegged yet)
On the first episode I liked everyone, I thought the confessionals were pretty balanced and we get to know all the HGs. I had a crush on Kaitlin and Arryn, thought Elissa isn't as great as Rachel in terms of comp, and got the Dan-vibe on Nick.
Then this racism thing came up so after the first eviction I am rooting for Elissa, Nick, and Amanda. The other nice people like Helen, Howard, and Andy are ok, but they need to step up their strategic game. McCrae... I kind of wanted to root for him because he's an underdog, but he's not that strategic compared to Nick, who is controlling him and the Moving Company.
So:
Nick - pick for winner for now, but need to be careful or he'll be seen as a threat early on.
Elissa - she should continue her social game, not sure if it's just editing but she doesn't seem to be as annoying as Rachel. She should keep her lies straight!!!
Amanda - smart player with a strong personality. She should choose her battles carefully so that she won't get targeted if someone she has a beef with becomes HoH.

I think that Amanda and McCrae are my favorites at this point. Amanda pretty much makes the comments I'm thinking when things are going down, so that's one of the reasons I like her so much.

Elissa's my favorite.
I wasn't Rachel's biggest fan but I think it's BS how half the cast is treating her just because of who her sister is.
To see a group of racist/homophobic/prejudice bullies getting a nice edit sickens me. On the feeds they show how Aaryn really is, on the show they show her crying in an attempt to make people feel sorry for her. :/

And also Jeremy (not sure if he's part of that horrible people group). I personally didn't like Arryn and Jeremy's attitude last night and started disliking them. |

Jeremy has made some mysoginistic comments. He has not treated the women very kindly on the show.
Producers should really show how these people really are. Helen and Howard had a good convo about the prejudices they should show.

Aaryn and GinaMarie are on the live feeds talking about how some people are being really shady and just embarrassing themselves to America. They also keep saying stuff like "What's the point in winning 500k if all of America hates you?"
I just love which two players are the ones saying this, completely lacking any sense of self-awareness.

That convo started with GinaMarie saying that she wanted to be known as a "good person"  |

Last night made me celebrate. Great episode. Some more HORRENDOUS behavior last night on the live feeds. Any trace of sympathy you might have had for what's waiting for Aaryn or Gina Marie after the show, if there was any left at all, should be gone. They clearly are remorseless and proud of their bigotry.
Right now, Amanda and Helen are my favorites. Candice, Judd, and Jessie are starting to rise on my list as well.

I have really hated this season. I watch about 1 out of 3 episodes a week because I just can't get behind it. The only person I actually liked was Howard. Everyone else I rooted for solely because they were against people I didn't like even more than them. For instance at the moment I'm rooting for spencer but not because I like him, just because he isn't in control.
I will admit Helen has grown on me and she deserves to win the game. I just haven't rooted for her mainly because its been so easy for her thus far. She hasn't faced any adversity and no one has wanted to get her out. While it is a testament to how well she is playing, it leaves me rooting for someone like spencer more who has been in danger forever.
I am extremely annoyed how no one this season has a backbone. All of the votes are unanimous or almost unanimous minus 1 or 2 votes. There is no fight in anyone. They all just go along with whatever for the week and there are never any tight votes.
I honestly don't care who wins as long as its not amanda. I can't stand her and I would like mccrae as a player if he seperated from her which unfortunately won't happen unless she gets voted out. I'm impressed by elissa in the sense I thought I'd despise her because I hate her sister but I don't really mind her.
That's my thoughts on the season lol.

I hate all of them too. I think Andy, Jessie, and Elissa are my favorites right now.
