Fan favorite doesn't necessarily mean it's the player who has has a strong understanding. If anything, it's who is more likeable, which I wouldn't put Frankie very high on that list. I would probably put Donny as the winner, were it not for Frankie's sister's fame. People seem to love him, even though his social strategy of sleeping while everyone else is awake is terrible.

lets look at the previous fan favorites(FF)
bb15 elissa - obvious she's rachels sister, one tweet and she gets all the votes.
bb14 frank - he's sid vicious's son, another famous kid, pretty sure girls thought he was good looking too.
bb13 jeff - milfs just love him
bb12 britney - it's fucking britney, everyone loves her
bb11 jeff - again milfs
fan favorite has nothing to do with what fans like or anything, it's just like american idol, whichever idiot picks up the phone and votes, thats why for the past few seasons shows like american idol have no talent jon mayer wannabe's win b/c of their tween fans and the subsequent milfs of these tweens.
i'll bet 500 tuconets frankie wins FF.

it's probably more lucrative to become fan favorite (if you can't win and even over second place) cuz if you're fan favorite, producers will probably treat you like 1st place and give you spots like commenting on the next season of BB or some stupid shit like that, eveldick has said in the past they pay 1k per appearance.
Can't stand Donny... dude is so passive and boring. Wouldn't bother me to see him get run over by a lawnmower.

Passive and boring describes probably the vast majority of BB fans. He's a shoe-in!
I'm pretty indifferent to Donny. Derrick is absolutely killing it so far and Zach leaving tonight(assuming he does) will just help Derrick's game even more. It will be hilarious if Donny wins HOH tonight.

For the token old dude, Donny is playing a hell of a game. He's a beast at competitions (which is extremely unusual for his character) and he's pretty well liked. The reason people want to get rid of him is because he's not on their "side" and because he can win comps.
Derrick is actually playing an amazing game and I'd like to see him win it all assuming Nicole doesn't come back.
I'm just sick of all of these seasons with really passive girls who are only on the show to enhance their "modeling" career and don't actually play the game. And the remaining girls will happily vote out a girl on the block because "it's what the house wants" despite the fact that you're going up next week and getting picked off one by one.
And yeah, if I was Christine's husband, I'd have a stack of divorce papers in hand for when she walks in the door.

I was so nervous Jacosta was going to win for a minute there. Then I started squinting my eyes and talking in tongues and her circles started getting knocked off confirming whatever the hell it is that I believe.
Seriously, she was the only one of the 4 I definitely did not want back in. It worries me that they showed Nicole saying that she was going to target Christine if she came back, but then that was the first person she went to for a hug when she got in. Generally these returning housemates go home soon after returning, so...I don't know what I'm hoping for really. Donny or Nicole need to win HoH, probably, for anything exciting to happen. People like to talk about making big moves, but they almost always end up taking the boring, safe route.

Im glad im not the only one. I would have stopped watching if Jacosta made it back in, she would just get voted right back out.
I was really hoping Zach could find a way to win back in, then win an HOH and flip the house on its side. AS it stands Im really hoping Nicole or Donnie win HOH this week. I would put up Frankie and Derrick. If one vetos out backdoor Caleb. Nicole has to know unless she makes a power move she has not chance. Christine is the type of moron who could be flipped. Donnie would work with her. Victoria will do whatever someone in power says. If someone outside of the alliance wins HOH this week they could break them.
This is my first season watching, my wife has watched every season. I lost a bet and had to watch this season with her. I kind of knew things about the show from her watching but actually have really enjoyed the show.

This is the part of the season where it always gets really boring. People always say that the "fun" part is when an alliance is forced to turn on each other and cannibalize their own but I disagree. The top alliance member, usually, picks the pecking order and they simply go down the line. There's always talk of "making a move" to get that top person out but nobody ever goes for it because they're delusional enough to think they're higher up the pecking order than they really are so the effort, almost always, falls flat.
He may be boring but Derrick has played one hell of a game. He's never been on anyone's radar and he's been able to manipulate things exactly as he's wanted from day one. He truly has earned the win this year (though there's still a few weeks to go and things could change and see him evicted). I'd like to see Nicole win because I really like her but I just don't see that happening.
Cody won HOH and is planning on nomming Donny and Nicole with the target being Donny this week (since they're scared of him in comps) and getting Nicole out next week

The only thing that can save this season now is seeing that cunt Crustine served with divorce papers at the finale.

s8 was dick
s9 looked stupid, but was a pretty good ride, zero HG's were memorable (twist, paired up HGs or some shit)
s10 well it's s10 if you know the winner, it's pretty much a much see
s11 pretty disgusting season, as in horrible HG's (nerds/beauty/popular/weird groups)
s12 had two things going for it, britney, and pure alliance domination if you liked that, stupidest twist (the mole or some shit)
s13 ugh disgusting season, almost had dick, but he ran away and a season with returning vets? fuck it
s14 britney and janelle return, and new HG's were pretty good too (twist, vets return to coach newbs)
s15 season of racism, deplorable HG's.
with HG's so bad, i can see why next season HAS to be all stars, i'd rather it be all stars and no week 1 or week 2 evictions, and just let the hatred build. (cuz all stars hate each other)
btw i stopped watching this season like 2/3 weeks ago, pretty much just get updates reading what you guys put down.
was the returnee challenge good? or rather were there any good challenges since the dice challenge that donnie won that would be a good challenge to watch?
*edit oops*
read it wrong, thought you didn't watch the later seasons. bleh.
