Let me just start by saying these house guests are terrible. They're either racist, have no game play, power drunk, or a combination of all three. At this point I'm just anxious for the end to come so we can move onto the next season. Maybe if Amanda, Gina Marie and Aaryn were evicted, the house would at least be tolerable. Could someone get the producers a memo?
1) Helen (last week 1): Helen has a ton of power in this house. What's even more impressive is the fact that she's had a hand in many of the evictions, while only being HoH once. I have to be honest, I don't really like when she talks, but you have to admire her persuasive capabilities.
2) Andy (last week 7): Although Andy is HoH this week, his power will be short lived if he doesn't step up his game play. We've seen relatively little of him thus far in the game, and that's because he hasn't done a whole lot. That could very well be part of his strategy, and it's worked so far, but he can't keep that up forever. Even though his nominations were pretty weak, kudos to him for not blindly following Helen's orders.
3) McCrae (last week 2): McCrae is in a good place. He has a lot of control but doesn't flaunt it. He's going to have to split from Amanda sooner or later, especially if she continues on her power hungry rampage, but he's wise to her faults. He is quick to call Amanda out and knows how to do damage control. Not throwing the HoH competition to her was also a good move. Just like he said, he doesn't want people to think he'll make and concessions to Amanda. What is usually the down fall of every showmance doesn't seem to be plaguing McCrae.
4) Aaryn (last week 3): Aaryn seems to be holding her own in this game, unfortunately. She seems to have learnt that she needs to lay low, and keep her mouth shut. She has turned her social game around, and is a bit of a beast in competitions. Her only weakness seams to be her inability to throw a competition. She looked genuinely mad when she won HoH last week. She'll become a target again, but it's not super imminent. At the same time, she doesn't have a ton of power, but is allied with some pretty powerful people who can take her far if they so choose.
5) Amanda (last week 4): Although Amanda is very powerful in the house, she is unraveling. It seems she has a beef with a new person every week. If she can't control her mouth, people will get rid of her out of annoyance. And if she can learn to control her mouth (which is unlikely), they'll realize she's a threat soon enough. When you think of the McCrae-Amanda alliance, you immediately think of Amanda as the larger threat, and that spells trouble for her.
6) GinaMarie (last week 5): It pains me to put GM anywhere other than a crater on the south side of the moon, but alas, she must go somewhere on this list, and unfortunately it's not the bottom. She is a despicable attempt at a human being, and her lack of decency is nauseating. Harsh words? Yes. I'm done with her.
7) Elissa (last week 9): Since Elissa hasn't been the MVP in a few weeks, we've seen refreshingly little of her. She's not doing much besides riding on Helen's yoga pants. She's floating, which will only get you so far. Her expiry date is quickly approaching but there are bigger threats people are going after. She may make it far, but not because of expert game play.
8) Spencer (last week 8): This week, Spencer is on the block for his fifth time. I don't think he's the target this week, but maybe next, unless someone decides to shake things up. I like Spencer, he's one of the only likable people left in this house, so I'm hoping he sticks around so I don't gag.
9) Jessie (last week 11): Jessie is uninteresting, and kind of annoying. But, the annoying threshold this season is so exorbitantly high, she's kind of likable. She'll be going home soon. It's inevitable without any smart game moves or allies. She'll have fun with Judd in Jury.
Until next time,
Sam
