Just saying for anyone thinking of watching, this episode is pretty much nothing. I know they often reviews at the end ,same with Survivor sometimes, it's so cheap to do lol, and a good ripoff of the audience, But to just give people a few seconds of the HoH we were already told about last episode was pretty much sticking two fingers up to the HLs audience.

And they make some of it an excuse for the expulsion of Willie. Showing the argument with Frank where Willie was saying everyone could vote for who they wanted while Frank was saying he was trying to bully people, as if Willie's pose being stood up or lying back with a cigarette is somehow more important. And I noticed a new clever edit on the 'headbutt', edited to make it look like it was an aggressive clash of heads rather than simply placing his head on like he did. I guess most of the American audience will just lap it up.

Yeah, it was BBUSA at its scripted worse. I tuned in about half way through and couldn't stand more than 5 minutes of it.

The first 10 minutes was ok, showing the Dani/Dan drama after Shane left.. from then it was all scripted and 5 minutes of the HoH competition at the end.

The other thread doesn't say anything about about the HoH result.

Yeh but it had it in the thread title that is was going to feature, I don't blame the OP who I guess started it without having seen the episode. But I just wanted to warn people that it would have nothing updating us on the house.

But it did update us on the house, with the Dan/Dani aftermath of Shane's eviction.

Barely an update, did we really find out anything new?

We found out that Danielle isn't trusting Dan any more, she's just letting him think she is. We also found out that she is thinking about cutting him if she was to win the Final HoH - and we found out these things thanks to the DR session, which goes to prove the DR segments can be useful sometimes.

I think we knew right after Shane was evicted that she was very upset and less trusting. How far that actually carries on with her a few days later is another matter totally judging by how much she worships Dan. Obviously the DR when used properly can be useful, but that is less than 90% of the time on the American version. Virtually all the time we are just told, in what seems scripted form, something which we already know, the idiot's guide.
