BB18 Recap "Even The House Took A Labor Day Break"

  First of all, I just want to say thank you to everyone who read my last blog post. It resulted in my highest page views since my first two posts. I just want to say that it means a lot to know that people are reading and enjoying it enough to return to the site. With that being said, let's get to the episode.

  So, let’s just be honest, there wasn’t much game this episode of Big Brother. Basically, the house guests got their Labor Day weekend break too. You know who doesn’t get one? College students. I am stuck attending classes while I know my parents are having drinks and barbecuing. Basically, I’d rather have Davonne for a third season than be in classes right now. You know who else would rather have Davonne back? James and Natalie. Because they are screwed. Let’s take a look at why and examine the best moments of the episode.

   We start with a flashback before the eviction where everyone is figuring out that Michelle will actually be the ones going. Natalie keeps repeating that she knew Nicorey would betray them. Really? You knew?! Then why did you keep them and not Victor? That’s right, because you didn’t know. Admit you were outplayed and get over it.

   Now the HOH competition is shown. The house guests have to navigate eggs through tiny holed fences with their fingers and maneuver the egg to hit 3 targets. Victor wins the competition after many close calls from both Corey and Natalie.

The You suck award goes to…
     James. I was going to give this to Corey for going for the have pass over the HOH at first, but even doing that, he was neck in neck for the HOH. Therefore, this goes to James for probably having the worst performance of any past contestant on this competition.


    Some other stuff this episode: As I said, this episode was game-lite, so more focus was on funny stories. The boys made fun of Nicole for being from a small town and these were some of the gems.

“You put on a play.. of 2 people”

“You go to a class reunion, and only one other person is there”

“ You have a school soccer team, but you’re disqualified every match”

    It was really funny and that combined with Corey sleep talking about Harry Potter made this episode insanely watchable. We also have Paul morning the loss of his inflatable duck Pablo, whom Michelle cruelly stole out of the house. While, it’s not a huge deal, I don’t think evicted house guests should try to leave with other people’s stuff. It’s petty and not funny. But, I guess that’s the definition of Michelle. I’d rewatch the episodes just to see the funny scenes of this episode again. 

   The rest of the episode consisted of James/Natalie lamenting over the situation they are in. I can’t feel bad because it is entirely their faults. Did I or did I not say that screwing over Victor would bite them in the butt? Well, I did. To add stupid to stupidity, all James has to say is that its “time to start playing Big Brother.” No, you idiot. That was over 60 some days ago. How can anyone root for this buffoon? He does nothing, adds nothing, he should be nothing.

                                                            Worst Player
   Is anyone surprised that I picked James? He did all of this to himself by playing how to get Natalie to like me and not Big Brother. I still maintain that he lost the second Frank went home, but his not playing the game has made this loss come even sooner than I would have predicted back then.
                                                         Best Player

    Paul. He is the most aware house guest left in the game. He basically controls the HOH this week through Victor. He is seen as a jury threat, and he is guaranteed this week to just relax and solidify some jury votes. He is in the best position to win this game provided he and Victor win more comps than Nicorey. 
                                                           Current Favorite
   Victor. Nothing has changed. I still think he is the most likable, though I am rooting for a Paul win. (For reference, Paul is a VERY close second place).

   With that being said, enjoy your Labor Day. If you are like me and in class, I salute you. If not, take an additional shot for me.
