As of tonight it will be exciting. The remaining HG's will have to turn on each other.

It's as boring as when Dan just a few seasons ago was given a virtual monopoly on the DR.
Of course much of the audience will swallow it hook line and sinker but I don't believe he has been behind every twist and turn like the script he is fed tells us. For all I know he could have been flattered by Nicole and when he couldn't get Christine out the production probably used it as an excuse to make him switch and say he wanted Nicole out. And did they ever really want Frankie out this week anyway? The cast has been boring and much worse than last year. Though Frankie is hated by many he is at least lively compared to the others left, same with Caleb I guess (though he is so stupid in the game it's hard to tolerate). |

At least Dan owned his game in BB14 though and wasn't afraid to get blood on his hands, that blindside of Shane in particular was brutal. That kept BB14 entertaining for me.
Derrick is running this game but he's doing it in such a safe and predictable way that isn't fun to watch at all. |

If he is fed a script, it is still up to him to use his persuasive tactics on the others. So far he has been successful. Frankly, I think BB wants Frankie out at this point because of his many untoward comments. So I don't think any production script pushed them to keep Frankie. Frankie will be an embarrassment to CBS if he wins. Not that I don't believe production interferes, they do, but the HG still has to execute the script. |

Dan on BB14 was lucky some producer manipulation went his way, not directly for his benefit but for others namely Frank's. I hated Dan on BB14, on BB10 Dan was at his best and played a great game, on BB14 he really didn't, sure he made F2 but he'd got so much blood on his hands that soured his name with the jury.
Also BB14 had a much dumber cast than BB10, no way would say Dan's number 1 girl in BB10 Keesha have put up with the stuff he did to Danielle on BB14. If Derrick is being scripted it doesn't sound as obvious as Dan did on BB14. Of everyone left Derrick is the one who I hope wins the most, but I fear something could backfire. After him I'll go with Caleb only because he was somewhat a target early on and has made it a long way also he's provided some entertainment. Obviously Nicole is my favourite but I'm assuming she is out the door tonight. |

Dan lost sight of his social game in BB14, but he still played a very good game, for him to even get to Final 2 with his target it is insanely impressive. And there is no denying that the Funeral move was one of the best moves this game has seen. Yes, he made it showy and flashy, but even without all that, the way he worked Danielle, Jen and Frank in that scenario was a thing of beauty. Quote:

True, but if BB14 had a smarter cast then Dan probably would've played a different style. One of his best qualities is that he can adapt quickly to any given situation.

Hated though she seemed to be by many it was Danielle being taken in by Dan that allowed the Shane eviction. Sometimes those who are hated actually create some of the big moments in a season. Dan I just found boring, and the 'funeral' was cringemaking, the kind of thing most HGs would just laugh at as we've seen when someone demands everyone to congregate for their speech. For all I know the significance of it was could have been vastly overhyped anyway. And when someone's main HLs time is in the DR it makes it feel rather empty in the US version as we all know the DRs are hardly spontaneous moments. Ian winning was really the true underdog story anyway, winning that competition towards the end saved him.
