I agree.
I see people saying he's fake and courting votes but what is the actual rationale behind this? Who did people expect him to save?
It's pretty obvious he knew that if he saved Janice, Chlovi would save Bobby and Austin would save Jenna. So what's the reasoning here? Is it people pissed off that Farrah went? Or do people believe that he couldn't possibly care about Chloe's wellbeing? He's been pretty compassionate for his entire time in the house, so I don't buy that at all.
In my opinion he saved Janice not only to help Chloe, but to help himself, Natasha, Sherrie, Austin & Bobby, who are at the end of their tether with Chloe Jasmine's tears and breakdowns. He knows Janice is the only one who can calm her down (as Stevi is useless), thus saving himself and the others from some of the drama.
Edited to add...
Actually, I've just had a brainwave. I think James saved Janice to avoid Stevi & Chloe dithering and having a disagreement over who to save, because clearly Chloe would have wanted to save Janice and Stevi would have wanted to save Bobby.
He made their decision easy and knew Bobby would still be saved. Good decision in my opinion.
