Viva El Packo de Quacko! Get that awful Frankenbooger monster out of the house. Please! And go Ian. He's really stepped up his game play of late (I loved the fake-relieved look he conjured up when his key was last out of the box at the nomination ceremony).

I'm also so happy BB finally aired all of Joe's ridiculous tall tales. This is why I've been calling him Country Crock in the Live Feeds thread. You named "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter", Joe? Really? Well, I can't believe it's not bullshit. What a maroon.

I thought too much time was spent on the HoH comp. And, it was great to see Ian talking about the BB Good vs. Evil where he places himself in the evil category. Boogie, incredulous, asks why! Ian calmly explains that he's not a nice person (or something like that).

Once again this goes right over Boogie's head. Non-verbal cues -- look into them, because you ain't doing too well with the verbal ones.

Ian is such an odd mix of endearing and off-putting. I really like the kid, but every time they feature him on the show, it's all so cringe-inducingly awkward. But he's easy to root for, and I'm glad he's on the right side of the house this week.

It was weird seeing Dan actually working so hard to win HOH. I think he could have won it if he'd been working for it the whole time instead of safety.

Not surprised to hear that Joe likes his tall tales. What was surprising is that no one ruined the fun by calling him on his crap.

If there is anyone out there who runs into the one person in America who doesn't believe the appearance of PANDORA's BOX is immenent in a tried and true Grodner attempt to save her favorite Frank and Boogie please let me know. How the producers can think anyone would actually enjoy such a blatantly manipulated season is beyond me.

The Ian hair removal things made we want to throw up the two hot dogs I ate watching the show. Must horrific thing since having to watch Dan french kiss an inanimate object in the Coach's comp a while back.

Ladies and Gentleman....I give you Jenn making her most appearance in one episode than in the entire month the game has been playing. And for god sakes please don't let this episode also be the teaser for some lame Good vs Evil All stars next summer that would kill this show if it wasn't already creatively dead already.

I'm rooting for Ian! I loved his DR comment about "Nobody comes between me and my floatmance!" LOL And saying he had no idea about the Pandora's Box. I was worried about him putting himself in the Evil category for Mike, though. He needs to play it cool, as he has mostly been doing.

Most of these Nomination speeches are BS. Shane's was a bit more mealy-mouthed than usual.

A precious few just call out "You are a target"

We all just want to get along, manners keep that daily rage under control; most of the time.

I don't understand why Jenn has such an active presence on the show. I just assume it's because she's one of the handful of players who don't go into the DR and sound like their families are being held hostage.

There is, BB is just too lazy to show it.

For some reason I thought Shane wanted to keep the Dan/Dani/Britney foursome a secret - yet they were the first 3 keys. Or maybe he just figures everyone knows?

Boogie literally looks like death.

This HOH competition was absolutely dangerous. In stores, they are required to post "wet floor" because of slip hazards which can result in lawsuits if customers fall.

If any of these HGs fell the wrong way, they could have broken bones that could have required multiple surgeries. And, I noticed that many of them almost fell, but did saves with their legs that made their legs look twisted. They could have had severe pulled muscles or strains.

TPTB have been lucky so far that none of the HGs were injured during this competition, they may not be so lucky next time. This HOH competition should be rethought and retired.

I could tell that Shane didn't want to say that he was going to give Danielle a leg massage. It actually looked like that sentance pained him to say, just like Ian's 'nobody comes between me and my flirtmance".

Mike is going to get the shock of his life when he's told that Ian is not on his side in any way, shape or form. And I can't wait for that moment. It's gonna be glorious.

I felt sorry for Ashley. I know some people were making fun of her going so slow but come on! She has a bad back and I don't blame her for going super slow. If she had fallen on her back, it could have severely injured her. My mom has a bad back and I don't think she would have even risked it.

We finally get more Jenn. But everything she said in her DR had me wishing that she was the next evicted. Within her second DR, I said to my TV 'Shut up Jenn'. That's not a good sign.

Shane, you're adorable but never, ever open your mouth again. Please. That speech was just...painful to listen to. Almost as painful as that two minutes of Ian/Ashley's second date. Geez, I actually mute my TV on mute for a while there and I still felt awkward watching it.

If someone other than Boogie or Frank goes out this week, we'll know for sure it's fixed.

When Shane opens his mouth, nothing above a 3rd grade level ever comes out of it. He is so vapid and stupid.

I'd be soooo mad of TPTB manipulated it to keep both Boogie and Frank this week. I get that the pair are pretty much the only aspect of the show interesting this season (the ones we love to hate); but, Frank is sooooooo ugly! Give us someone easier on the eyes.

Speaking of Ian, the Ian/Ashley stuff sucks so much and is so blatantly cobbled together for TV. I hate it. They clearly can't cope with the lack of a showmance this season. We're probably going to get Frank/Ashley non-stop.

I was shocked how dangerous the HOH comp was. No helmets? kneepads? Elbow pads? People spending an hour slipping & sliding on crisco? I'm surprised no one was injured.

Watching Ian burning his armpit hair off was so gross, I couldn't believe they aired that.

Good lord, did we really need 18 minutes of that HOH comp? Yes, it was slippery, people fell a lot, we get it. Although, I guess they did need filler, since the nominations were never really in doubt. Mike trusted Ian, Ian ratted out Mike, the Quack Pack met, Mike and Frank never tried to get anything else accomplished, done and done. So we get to hear about Joe yelling and lying, and Ashley dating, and Jenn....actually being in the house. Talk about filler.

Vanity. Many men who aren't swimmers or athletes shave their body hair (including in places where I personally feel that God intended for a man to be hairy) because they think it enhances their muscle definition. That's why Shane does it; Ian does it because he wants to be more like Shane physically.

This season just cannot get any worse. Thank goodness the noms were what everyone in the known universe wanted. Ian getting shaved and that ridiculously edited "date" were repellent. Also, too much Bratney.

Boogie looked awfully comfortable despite nominations. I guess he knows Grodner will work her non-magic and rig the living shit out of veto/pandora's box. I mean, is that hideous wildebeest Grodner the mother of Boogie's child? What is the deal?

Where does Jenn get off complaining that the same people once again have the power? What has she or her former teammates done to change that? She was playing for SAFETY, hardly a struggle for power in my book.

Date night:

Ashley, "This is a... um... 'nice' date."

Ian, "Yeah, I'm having fun."

Crickets, "Cricket...cricket...cricket....." for 38 minutes.

I think Ian really likes Ashley, but knows that he doesn't really have a chance. I also think that Ashley WANTS to like him (LIKE like, not just 'like'), but just can't. He IS valuable to her in the game, and at some level she knows that. Besides, it's always nice to know that you're liked. Even if he isn't Prince Charming.

Where does Jenn get off complaining that the same people once again have the power?


Jenn, I have an idea that will solve your problem. GET BETTER!

OrangeClockwork, I actually think he looks comfortable because a) he doesn't care if he goes home and b) he thinks Frank is a bigger target.

I laughed so hard at this.

I have to agree with everyone who has said it, but this comp was very dangerous, someone could have gotten really hurt if they took a nasty fall and banged their head. Give them helmets at the very least.

If so, this will be twice Grodner has majorly undercut Shane as HOH in order to keep her favorites, interfering with Shane's gameplay and making him incredibly more vulnerable. I'm not the hugest Shane fan, but there's manipulation and then there's what almost seems criminal in a game where there's this much money at stake. The worst thing about Grodner is it's not just about her rigging the hell out of the game to keep her pets; it's also about discriminating against other players and keeping them from any chance of the money they signed on to play for.

When I saw that @#!"#@ box, I said that if Grodner gets both Frank and Boogie off the block this week, she can kiss more ratings for this season goodbye. Why watch a competition where there's no actual competition?

Another week of Totally! Straight! Shane in control, with a Pandoras Box lurking to nullify his reign, just like TPTB did last time. Ugh.

The players seem less excited to be there by the hour. This doesn't make for fun viewing.

And did they gloss over the part where Boogie got touched by the gypsy from Thinner? Poor gypsy!
