So it's okay for Amanda to be a bully if it makes for interesting TV? That's a sick mentality to have. I don't think anyone has said Candice is an angel. Unlike Candice, Amanda, in her core, is a bad person. It's really that simple. Aaryn said hurtful things, but you can tell that she isn't a malicious person by nature. Amanda sickens me. And yes, MVP is over.
It is unfortunate but the sad fact is Amanda / Aaryn bring viewers. They have gone up since the controversy.

Amanda does not sicken me, I just think she is a woman with some personal issues who wants everyone to like her. I have met some people like her before who act all tough but really have problems deep down. Aaryn is similar.

Candice TBH has some blame for the Amanda situation. Amanda WAS trying to keep her but Candice tried to go after her and telling Judd in PoV was not the smartest thing to do. Amanda acted vile and I hope she got a warning from CBS.

Candice really has not acted the best for her game. Whatever she thinks of McCranda she should have tried to distance from Howard and team up with them and Hellisa for the sake of the grand prize.

For the DE I want Candice / Aaryn out.

Worried for Judd.

I don't know Amanda personally so I'm not about to make judgements on her about how she is on the outside, in the BB environment it's obvious that some struggle (nothing new there). Her social game obviously isn't great, but that's true of others too. However bad gameplayers make for entertaining TV and that's why this is a good season, better than last season. The American format is a game about alliances, like it or lump it.

Worried for Judd too. He's really made a mess of things the last couple of weeks.

But I have no sympathy for Candice, she's an absolute idiot. Everyone in there has offered her an olive branch throughout the series but she's always thrown it back in their face at 10x the force it was offered.

Judd has been a dick head for the last 2 weeks, but I still like him and feel bad for him because although 30% of the hate from houseguests is down to him being shady/being a dick, the other 70% is because they think he is MVP.

I hope Julie tells them America was MVP, its not fair on Judds game if they dont, and of course that vile bitch Amanda will go around saying she was right that Judd was MVP if they are not told.

Exactly Aaryn is smart she knew her game was running out so went to the people who could safe her. Candice messed her game by aligning with Howard a big target

I think they both have similar tendencies in that regard. Aaryn was a bully early in the game when she felt comfortable that her position was secure. She got beaten down again and again and was forced to learn some humility. Amanda has recently been on a winning streak, the power has gone to her head and is reinforcing that her bad behavior is a successful strategy, so she's gotten worse and worse.

I think the main difference between Amanda and Aaryn in how "good" they are is purely situational. They're both opportunistic bullies, they just perceive their current circumstances differently.

I can't really think of a single person in this season that I genuinely like and would like to spend time with in real life. Some have seemed decent for a while, but they've all spoiled it at one point or another by now.

But you don't know these people in real life, Big Brother isn't a normal situation. I'm just glad it isn't the deluded pantomime of vote to evict. If you want real reality TV rather than just children's reality TV you will get some tasteless jokes and people insulting each other at times.

Wasn't the whole point of the MVP to begin with that it could be anonymous? They shouldn't ever tell the HGs who it is.

There's tasteless jokes and insults and then there's crossing the line - in my view Amanda and Spencer well and truly crossed the line. It's disgusting.
