WOC Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 If you made it this far into the game before deciding it's too rigged to watch then you have a high tolerance. Don't give up, I'm sure you will make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYROSE Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 It is all a show...so if Cody has the advantage of knowing how to manage the ropes where Paul is on a learning curve, think of a sport where newbies are not as good as seasoned players...I don't watch under the expectation of fairness, I watch to see how people interact while trying to be friends and still get to the top over the one who is a friend. It is an interesting fishbowl environment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what if Cody got a bit of an advantage because he knew how to work the ropes. He just finished battling 3 other HGs to get there and now had to battle again. He didn't ask for Paul as his opponent, Paul was sent out by the house cowards. So Cody got his fair chance to go back in. Count how many advantages Paul got. 3 safe weeks, HOH comp thrown to him and now he's bamboozled most HGs to follow him and protect him because he is a Vet and such a great player and knows all and dispenses his wisdom and they all fall at his feet. Gag me with a spoon!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamasquerade Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 I think the safest word to use is "scripted." This may avoid some knickers getting twisted over the word " rigged. " The current script suits Grodner just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's rigged, as in the outcome is pre-determined, but they definitely do seem to pick and choose the right comps/advantages/etc. at the most coincidental times for maximum impact. Having watched Survivor, Amazing Race, etc. I don't think BB is anymore scripted than those shows. The producers are trying to make compelling television where people will still watch to the end. I would honestly rather have seasons like this than the one with Andy and his pack where I stopped at the final five because it was so boring and awful. At least I'm interested and there are people to root for at the moment, which is really all I want in BB. But that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
