Daily rabies report

Ratings - Rabies Gone Wild edition

Listen to the wording on Wednesday's show carefully: they usually take great pains to make it appear as if it's a live show, but they won't actually say it is. It's never good when they lock out paying customers in order to keep a secret, but they do it every year. Once or twice in the far distant past, they'd put them back on for a minute or two, just long enough to see who wasn't present, but those days are long gone. I'll never understand why they do this: everyone watches the show anyway.
Won: $94.83 He's one of the most hated out here lately, mostly because he's been playing a good game and getting away with it. He's been the definitive 'floater' in the classic sense, shifting from one group to another and letting them all believe he was loyal to them. 'Floaters' have gotten a bad name in recent years, but it's as valid a BB strategy as any, and difficult to pull off. Entertainment wise, his sarcastic humor shtick is getting old, but at least he's still putting in the effort.	Won: 48 hr cone of shame, 24 hr shackled to McCrae NOMINATED She's the only one of the remainders who has used racial slurs in the past, but all five are being called 'vile racist scum' and the like around the BB interwebs - go figure. Personally, I think her stuff was said out of ignorance rather than bad intent, and I think there's hope for her to learn from it.. at least I hope so anyway. She still brings a lot of intentional and unintentional humor and her hair continues to be a wonder.
Won: $5,000, 24 hour solitary, revival, 48 36 hr chicken, 24 hr exercises NOMINATED He's likely a goner (again) at this point and I think he knows it despite their reassurances to the contrary. I'm glad he got an extra couple of weeks' revival as he remains one of the more likable and entertaining of the entire cast. Some have crucified him for dissing Elissa, but it's hamster tradition to bash those they've evicted. Anyway, she did her share of bashing too - it just didn't get as much press. Elissa will likely get the viewer favorite prize, assuming they do that again, because votes for others will be split as they were for MVP. But I'll be endorsing Judd: he was far more entertaining all season and I think he'll be more appreciative of it.	Won: $5,000, 24 hr shackled to GinaMarie USED VETO ON SELF I'm glad he finally got a chance to wake up from his summer slumber and play without Amanda. It'll take a streak of comp wins to survive the next few days, which he may or may not have in him. Unfortunately, like the rest of them, he's long over putting on a show for us. The usual 75 days is too long a season to start with; 90 days is just brutal on both them and us. You'd think I'd endorse him for viewer favorite money, and I'd love nothing more than to see him get it, but I think his many weeks in bed with Amanda put the kaibosh on that. I'm hoping the votes aren't split between him and Judd, as that will easily give Elissa the win and I just don't know what she's done to deserve it other than being related to Rachel & Brendon, who have spread more hate and rabies than anyone.
Won: $10,000, Bahamas trip, 24 hr megaphone, 48 36 hr chicken HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD He's in trouble with some for any number of things, not being hunky enough along with sexist humor being the main reasons, but he's probably looking pretty good in most of the jurors' eyes at this point. Being a perma-pawn means he didn't get any blood on his hands as HOH until now (which was inevitable just due to the numbers), and he only cast two votes against the current jurors. If he sticks til finals, he's got a pretty good shot to win it all if they vote personal.	Won: Sit out 1 veto comp She came in as the only casting twist but proved that she's nothing like her sister, as she was mostly unemotional and robotic. Her extensions weren't as bad as some but they landed her in #Deathrace2013 a few times anyway, and a few more times for her peculiar eyelash situation. She often made it seem like she was above it all as she talked about her wonderful life, and she was barely on the show until Helen left. Then she stepped it up and won a couple serious comps, including a Rachel-esque OTEV and a miracle save on the baseball wall. She'll be remembered for doing her yoga, including random bendy in the middle of serious convos and Candice's house meeting, her odd cadence when speaking, and for doing a classic spit-take when being harassed by Amanda. Mmm-hmmm. My pre-season prediction: -Most likely to duckface in HOH and/or photo booth pics, and most likely to outlast her shelf life. Check and check - the first is fact, the second is just my opinion
Won: 50 shades of orange She played a good game but got got by the underdogs she'd overlooked. She was loud, volatile, and shared way TMI at every opportunity, but she also brought humor and was able to laugh at herself. Sometimes. She sucked McCrae's head right out of the game but also served as a shield for him with her mouthy attitude, and she featured in most of the fights, fake rumors out here, and sex events. Most of her explosions were when she was perfectly safe, and she was often the epitome of a sore loser. She won them over one by one with brilliant people skills but then lost them with lousy social skills, and she might want to look into anger management and/or meds adjustment after this. She was extra paranoid and lousy at comps but she got spray-oranged, BB engaged, and BB married twice. My pre-season prediction: -Most likely be Diary's favorite. -Check	Won: Nothing She was Bigotgate's poster girl as it spread as far as USA Today, NY Times and international news outlets. Flipping Candice's bed didn't help, nor did her continual denial of having said anything wrong. The fact that Howard & Helen were evicted under her HOHs didn't help her rep, but they were as much game-related group decisions as they were personal. She lost most of her teamies early but she rallied and stuck til jury, largely due to winning four HOHs, making that record a six-way tie, as well as Amanda winning her over to do her dirty work. She had a fit about having her hat sat on, she drank nail polish remover, was a #Deathrace2013 contender for both roots & extensions, and her friend Clownie had a dedicated overnight feed many nights along with five suicide attempts. My pre-season prediction: -Most likely to give mirror-face, most likely to waste away on slop, and most likely to either be booted early for no reason, or go to finals against someone they all hate and win -Fail on all counts, but I don't think anyone expected what we got
Won: 2 night curfew, BBQ party She started out okay but once she won HOH, she got a raging case of HOHitis that never cleared up. Her political background helped her manipulate them but she played it too heavy, and that was her undoing with both hamsters and feedsters. She learned about teabagging and dental dams this summer, but someone needs to tell her dentists use them too. She held nail parties, orchestrated activities, cried way too many fake tears and a few real ones, reminded everyone she's a mom more than BB9 Sheila Kennedy, and she overused 'I love you' like a teenage boy trying to get laid. #STFUHelen became a thing on Twitter for a few weeks, and it even trended on her eviction show. My pre-season prediction: -Most likely to talk too much and too long. -Check and double-check	Won: Nothing She was a non-entity for most of the season other than crying over Helen's BBQ party (then going anyway) plus a knockdown drag-out with Amanda, until she got wind she was about to be evicted. Then she revved up Tropical Storm Jessie and swore she'd turn them all against each other after she left. That was fun for an afternoon and would have made her one of the most memorable hamsters of all time if she'd kept it up but alas, she fizzled, apologized, and will fade into obscurity with so many others. She had the reputation of being a man-izer but most of that happened before the feeds, and all we got was a 2-day sHOwmance with Judd. My pre-season prediction: -Most likely to find herself without an alliance. -Check, repeatedly
Won: $5,000, 1 week clown suit She laid around with Howard until he left, and then she mostly laid around by herself. She still managed to figure in many of the fights, including one during the veto comp and one during her own eviction. I think a lot of their problems with her started before the feeds did, but it's fair to say she egged it on as well. She'll be remembered for tragic life stories, being the Mad Hatter sitting on hats (or not), Keepin' It Real With Candie, her crab shack story, meeting Julie in a clownitard, and the #BlameCandice hashtag game. My pre-season prediction: -Most likely to say she's there 'for the experience' -I don't know if she said that much or not	Won: Nothing He was eloquent and animated in Diary but we didn't get that guy on the feeds. Instead he mostly laid around with Candice, held Bible study in the coach seats, and prayed in the photo booth. He isolated Candice and himself, killing both of their games, and their combined lack of awareness foiled any chance for his 11th hour save plan to succeed. He gave sudden speeches that few understood, but he wore Candice's tassel earrings and Judd's crown equally well. My pre-season prediction: -Most likely to parannoy, eventually -Fail - others freaked out for no reason more than he did
Won: Nothing She was a caboose for the mean girl train and when she wasn't straddling Jeremy, she was laying around making out with him, including in her bestie's HOH bed whenever Aaryn stepped away. She took being widowed better than GinaMarie, but she had several days to prepare for it and seemed almost proud of making 'Big Brother history' by using her veto. Otherwise she brought eyebrow adventures, and apologies when she mouthed off, which is more than some. My pre-season prediction: -Most likely to be intimidated, taken advantage of, and blindsided -Fail, although Jeremy's eviction did blindside her.. taken advantage of is subjective	Won: Permanent Have-not pass He claimed 1/16 Cherokee but he besmirched that heritage regularly, along with many others. He caused and starred in the big Winegate fight, smooched with Kaitlin while laying his hand on Aaryn's leg, wore a diaper, and mistakenly boasted he'd win every comp. He was a boy in a man's body, but his tattoos were nicer looking than most heavily tatted hamsters' have been. He'll be most remembered for being the asshat of BB15. My pre-season prediction: -Most likely to get in a fight -Check
Won: Nothing He came in saying he hoped for stardom but it probably won't happen as a result of this show. Overnighters got to know his blue hoodie & cap well, and he was usually the last one to go to bed. That's usually good strategy but it didn't help him. The over-the-top character he played in pre-season interviews gave him a rough start with most, but he didn't stick long enough for us (me anyway) to get to know what he's really about. My pre-season prediction: -Most likely to namedrop and be generally annoying -Subjective, but I'll take it	Won: Nothing He didn't bring much to the feeds and he seemed oblivious about how the show works, but those types are the ones who get blindsided and we always like to see that. The Aaryn & David Comedy Show was fun for a minute but all the controversy she fed took the fun out of that, so it's just as well he got gone early. Back to the beach and watching BB on the couch with mom. My pre-season prediction: -Most likely to climb on stuff and be told 'Stop that!' -Check, first night of feeds
