Lol with "Head of House" and the "Second Chance Challenge" BBAU is halfway to becoming BBUS. (On the flipside, BBUS should totally do house noms as a twist for one week.)

Tim is carrying this season. I would have tuned out if he wasn’t on this season.

Tim is literally the only reason i watch BBAU. Dude is a content machine every single time hes on TV im entertained. So good

Same here, I only watch because of him and Drew. Loved both 9 years ago and I still love them.

Who did all the newbies vote for?!

Cooked it worst than Cara on aus Survivor lol.

I just started the ep but Tim is actually being disgusting towards Tully. He kept making jabs at her then tried to gaslight her to think its her fault, then following her and telling people what Tully is doing is awful. Yeah he’s a great player but damn this entire scene is kinda gross.

Tim has always been that way. When he's getting his way or having fun he's super entertaining but he can also get super vicious and hateful and is a huge hypocrite.

Someone come collect there grandma

Omg such a good episode. I hope Aleisha gets back at Joel later on LMAO

It's not likely to be later. Just saying.

Holy fuck Tim Dormer is literally a genius at this game. I get Australian Big Brother is very low quality gameplay compared to US & Canada but seriously, the newbies have the numbers in the house yet somehow manage to fuckup the votes onto Trevor which resulted in 3 newbies up for eviction. Even if Tully didn't save Trevor, he would've been safe regardless as he received 2 votes due to Joel spreading the vote out. That was so funny to watch Joel's face learn he got played

I see it as an interesting generational comparison. Just the way the younger people think and behave. Idk, the groups are just... different. I like this season so far!

Tim has and always will, run rings against people. It's what he does. May not win, but he does anyway.

Joel… Joel Joel… Here I was thinking they would be a good match.. both smug as fuck… but then he says that!!!!!

I'm so lost, who did they all vote for? Trev and Gab only got a couple votes each?

Newbies were all over the place. I was expecting 3-4 votes to Trevor from their side, but nope, Jaycee said he voted for Lulu and their group was confused by it.

Commonly referred to as a schmozzle.

This season is so good

And now it comes out. Joel's a prick. Somebody responded as to why. I typed this out then the post was removed: ​ *He was going for the showmance until Drew and Sam hooked up. Were you not watching?* *Why get into bed with her if you're not "feeling it" his A grade player, will do what works. If it won't I'll dump you.*

I could tell that Joel was a prick right from the start. The way he looked amused when Alicia was upset was so unsettling.

I don't know if he is. If it isn't there then it isn't there.

What every girl wants to hear after you jump into her bed.

As a guy I have been in bed with women who are just friends. It's a little different in the BB house. I agree that it seems like he has been leading her on but the truth is he might have just been getting a feel to see if anything was there and now he knows there isn't. There's no easy way of letting someone down like that as a guy without coming across as a dick. If the tables were flipped and Alicia rejected him would you feel the same?

Yep

"Well done Tim, how did you do it?" from BB is just CLASSIC!

So after all that talk, Trev only got 2 noms??????

Jaycee saying he voted Lulu, what was going on with the newbie side? I really want to know who voted for who.

Because they don't trust her. But then, they haven't given her a reason to.

Spot on.

They really did have a brain fart

They fractured.

Yes!

So now we're getting to Palmer ads per break. Great.

Election soon, so not much more of that rubbish thank goodness

Really hope she picks Trev. LOL

Happy dance!!

It's not Scomo's job, ICYMI

Is she gonna choose Drew?

She can't win, but it would be smart to align herself with the newbies.

Oh this is just mean BB

Lara is such a Karen

I've just read, she's apparently diagnosed with ADHD and OCD. Would be so hard to be in the bb house with ocd I would think! Edit to include link: https://sodramaticonline.com/2022/05/17/big-brother-2022-lara/

Has JC even gotten his intro vid yet?

Who? j/k

That could be because you're as annoying as fuck in the house, Lara.

How do you know Trevor is gunning for Lara, Taras?

So is there a time-limit on discussing noms? BB told them to stop talking about it just before.

I think it was 30 minutes

Ah, the as long as it's not me strategy. Lara very paranoid.

I do miss the old days where you couldn't collude with others.

Considering we don't get to see the noms anymore, I'm okay with it.

Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy the strategising but I did also enjoy the old nom process where we did watch them fumble for reasons (sometimes frustratingly so) and people where truly blindsided.

Love the old way, but they've gone a mash-up this year. Seeing the strategy doesn't tell the full story.

I've been watching the extras afterwards online. Shows more with the noms and votes

Do you know where/how I can watch the extras?

We get it Joel, you da man.

Has anyone heard? Apparently theres a hole in Labours budget.

Sounds like they stole that tactic from the last NZ election lol (hopefully it works as well as it did there).

I've started muting the ad breaks

All 3 of em?

Also can I just say that if this bullying of Tully keeps up I'm really gonna change my tune on this season

It was so weird to introduce house nominations last week as a shock new twist, only for them to have the winning team nominate last night, and then to go back to house noms tonight. Make up your mind

Didn't they say it would be like this once a week? So it'll switch back on the next vote. Just pointing it out so you don't get confused when they stick with that oscillation 😂

It one the new way and then one the old way, its really not that complicated bro

I know it’s not complicated I just think consistency with these things makes better gameplay

Still believe Taras is tactically throwing these comps, and once the heat goes up on Joel and he is finally taken out Taras will rise

Sportsbets did have Taras' odds of winning below only Reggie. So you could be onto something. Also, I feel like he's way smarter than the younger guys who think they're all that and a bag of chips

If the sportsbets odds on bb are like they are on ausurvivor, mentioning them should be outright banned as spoilers.

Well that was first week, so could well have changed idk I just read it online and not even on sportsbet either so idk Edit: just read a different article which named different people as sportsbet top 3, so no spoilers here that's quite clear lol

Gabby and Taras were doing well. Guess Tim really wants Joel not safe.

I'm a bit over these physical challenges, if they have been there for an hour and only 3 interesting things happened then that's dumb

Yeah I hate the physical challenge part of BB over the more recent years. It's boring af to watch, plus massively favours the conventionally fit people, and I feel like a lot of older and unfit contestants were lost who would have been much more interesting than the dumb gym heads who stayed on the show instead tbh

The only thing I like about it is Tim holding his own and giving the fit newbies a run for their money and Layla winning the second chance challenge

BB's snark is great

Now I feel sorry for Tully, those two aren't obviously together and she was just chatting.

She has a partner on the outside as well. Alicia is jealous tho so maybe theres some drama coming.

Tim's gonna make sure he doesn't win.

So does Joel think the OG's have never played before or something?

I feel like Joel is the epitome of that kind of younger, self absorbed, self important yet oblivious instagram tiktok generation kind of person tbh. Can't even plan one move ahead though lol

I dunno. He's the stereotypical jock player. He even says "Break!" like they're in a huddle on the football field or smthg 😂

Lara would be really annoying in the house, like, has she watched the show before?

She probably has. Lara is already annoying some housemates

less Drew and Sam more Trev hijinks

After 12 days, that's a deep level.

Josh at home screaming and throwing up rn

Bleh. Can we get back to the show instead of the "Love QLD" episode

I'm done with all the kissing. We get it, they're a couple.

Yeah that was a bit much before.

ew

Drew and Sam romance is the worst part of this show.

yeah I hate how much of a focus it is

It's so uninteresting, and it eats up time from everyone else.

Like the Trevor hijinks. Was way more entertaining.

We are in a world where reality TV has chased the Love Island approach 🤦‍♂️

My god I love Reggie and taras has such a beautiful soul.

Taras is growing on me and Reggie yeah is just beautiful

Those were some beautiful words from Taras. Hope he is genuine and this isn't all just a BS act. Seems like a good guy.

My friend who doesn’t watch the show follows him on YouTube as he does sticky fingers covers and said he seems pretty genuine

Whats his channel?

https://youtube.com/user/SlenderManTheBand I’m so silly I said he does sticky fingers covers and actually realised he is apart of the band

Well Taras is never voting Reggie out.

Never say never

Yeah but I also feel like nobody will vote Reggie out, and if they do people will come for them. Does anyone know when the public gets to vote? Like only for the last episode? I miss the live shows.

Reggie's a pretty easy elimination once you get to about 6-7 people left. She won't win a challenge and it will be viewed as 'we can't beat her at the end' reason at that point.

Public will vote for the final 3 and decide the winner within 24 hours after the final 3 has been announced

They were pretty woeful at that task.

lol enjoy rice and beans

Reggie's gonna win it all back!

start of reggie winners edit package?

I hope so tbh

We can look forward to next week and no more bloody political ads. If I hear there's a hole in my bucket one more time....

I was on 3 times in one ad break yesterday. Seriously??

Wondering if Sam is stalkerish, her and Tully having the same tatt, in the same place (I think)

Well, apparently she had a massive crush on drew before the show, so not impossible... but improbable imo

**MAN DOWN**

BB dissing the housemates efforts! LOL

Haha Tim you just had to

If the previews are anything to go off. Reggie has those Daredevil spatial awareness honed skills and is gonna nail this.

A blind person with the power of sight

Check out how blind people use sound to see there environments. It’s incredible.

maybe they should kiss and get it over with?

Well if they have to guess prices, I reckon only Reggie would do well.

Oh Tully the Ups and Lows smashing so fast again Tim just wants to shoot the shit

lol Tully remember how you used to always cry? *cries*

That was a major dick move on Tim's behalf.

Tully believed Tim had matured???? Why? How?

If they have all grown why is she still crying?

C R Y I N G

Tully you can't be in the J squad, you lack the equipment. A Jenis

Lol get rekt Tully

oh right I forgot about the fence

fuck I love Tim's shit stirring of Tully. Never gets old

Tim had in for you a LOT last time Tully.

such a whinger

Trev's face lol

K, welcome back lads and ladesses

Let’s goooo!
