The running to the bathroom to cry was priceless. What a character.

I think it was in the HOH room so that she could have twigged to the idea that it was possible that this was not a private interview. If she were on the ball, she would have noticed that Arisa did not say that the houseguests couldn't hear her and she could speak freely. Powerful twist and an entertaining episode. Best moment was Gary running into the bathroom to cry and Emmett's analogy of a kid being told no to fruit loops!

I seem to be drawn to "loud in the diary room" types!

Used to like Alec. Changed my mind tonight. I don't dislike him, but his send offs tonight made him seem petty and whiny.

He's been my favourite since the beginning. Hope he goes all the way.

In the end, went out as very good sport. I would have spilled the Quattro alliance, etc on my way out. Not nearly as easy going as she is ...

a little crass and blowhard, but a good heart. I liked him.

disappointed it was Kat. I think she would have had a good chance of winning that tree hugging HOH comp if she had stayed.

I lost Slice just weeks before BB started, so I'm going to have to catch online. Did see the premiere ... I neither loved nor hated. Hope you find some other ways to regain your Canadian pride

She was instructed not only to nominate two but to give her reasons. Did I miss it? I didn't hear her give any reason.

Only $100,000? Geesh, we're cheapskates!

Thanks for posting that.

It is an interesting idea. The ousted houseguests that don't make jury have access to diary rooms, etc. that could make them more bitter, but at the same time, have more time to decompress, so may be less emotional. I don't know that it would have changed this season's outcome, and I don't think jkygogo necessarily was thinking only of that, but it does bring some wider perspective to the voting.

Hayden Moss showed up to the auditions in Vancouver, B.C. today.

Shane did an about face, didn't he?!

Hoping for an interesting inaugural BB Canada season. Thanks to everyone for giving me some summer bedtime reading!

Cheers to that. Backstabbing that truly was "just game."

since they all agree that they shook hands and lied and backstabbed, the sticking point for many seems to be the swearing.

Against someone else, I would have been happy for Ian. Busy being a bitter coach potato!

I think Dan avoided reminding them that he had a bigger uphill battle because of the returning player target because he didn't want to remind them of their determination to give the money to a new player, but in doing so, weakened his speech. His emphasis on how he wasn't smart as some or as physical as some, and all of the flattery, didn't cut it. It was too obvious. I know he had a fine line to draw because talking about how he could talk two people to drop out of the HOH comp, for example, would embarrass Dani and could cause him to lose her vote. If he did throw that last HOH, he must really be kicking himself ...

I really disliked that pop a squat phrase ...

Thanks for posting the JeJo video. He seems so in love with her - wonder why he needs the ultimatum. But that's OT ...

Still baffled as to why Dan doesn't want to take Dani. Surely he's got the skills to convince most of them that he deserves it over her, but Ian is a serious contender. Is he loathe to have to point out that he was behind almost everything she did and in doing so belittle her?

(I voted exactly the same as justcurious.)

So Dan is saying that he needs to throw the final comp because he wouldn't be able to get himself NOT to take Dani. Ack, I really thought taking Dani was his sure bet ...
