Who is your favorite houseguest (and why) this season?

I love your response. You really summed them up! I don't know how many people thought Hayden would win, but nobody in this whole discussion even talked about him. I thought he pretty much flew under the wire until the end. But besides his secret showmance, he was pretty straight up with everybody. He always had something very nice to say to each person that was evicted. Now we have a new season to look forward to. We'll see what kind of houseguests we get then. Thanks for responding to my discussion!

This response is probably like 6 weeks old. I'm amazed how the game turned out since I responded. NOBODY found out about the alliance in the house. That really is shocking to me. Everybody was so worried about pairing up that they missed the forest. I'm also shocked that Britney was voted America's favorite houseguest. If America likes someone who is the quintessential two-face, then they get what they deserve. Personally, I can't respect anyone who puts on the smile to your face and is just an evil, spiteful person behind your back. Sure, everybody has blowups in the DR. Everybody talks a little trash. But Britney was on a whole other level. I'm disgusted that she won America's "favorite." My guess: she earned a lot of sympathy when she broke down in tears after Enzo and Lane spilled the beans. Even still, that's just hogwash. If given the chance, Britney would have alligned tight with Lane and got rid of Hayden and Enzo, so the "woe is me" stuff doesn't fly in a game. Okay. I'm going on forever! Congrats to Hayden for winning. I didn't see that coming. I thought for sure Hayden would have taken Enzo, knowing that Britney is an automatic for Lane and that Brachel is an automatic two votes against Hayden. In my mind, Lane and Enzo were interchangable as far as competitions when. And they both played a strong social game. But Lane had automatic votes in the jury house whereas Enzo really didn't. I'm hoping next season they put in some happily married people. Not that I don't like laughing at the showmances, but everybody trying to hook up just spoils the game to me.

I agree about the showmances. It starts to take away from the game, but maybe the producers think it brings in viewers. But anyway I can't wait for the next season to see who they put in the house. I could play the social game, but I would bomb out in the endurance competitions. Love to meet other Big Brother fans!

Me, too. I love the conflict on Big Brother. That is what keeps it interesting every year. Of course, as we all know now, goody Hayden won. I guess the most under handed thing he did all season was to have the showmance and keep it a secret. Otherwise, he was a pretty good guy. I would not have predicted him to be the winner, though. He surprised me toward the end.

Ragan was a funny man. I did not like Rachel, but she kept a lot of conflict going, which is fun to watch. Ragan could really put her in her place! I did not like Matt's lie about his wife. I just don't believe in doing things like that. That was taking it a little too far. He got what he deserved when he was evicted. Britney played hard. And her reward was that America gave her that money at the finale. Did you know that her house caught on fire the night before (or day of) the finale? I saw it on the news. That is a shame for her. Well, now we can wait for a new season! I am a big fan and always watch every season.

Yea! Another Big Brother fan! I agree with you on all of your comments. Matt has had super great luck in the house, and using that diamond veto last night was awesome. I knew he would send Kathy home. I liked her, but she was not a strong player in the game. I can't wait to see who Britney puts on the block. I am assuming right now that she will put up Brendon (despite her promises that she would not). I cannot imagine who the 2nd nominee will be because she is friends with all of them, but I bet it is Matt. We'll see....

I guess all of the people that I wanted to win, or thought would win, did not make it to the end of this season. I never would have predicted Hayden to be the winner. I am now looking forward to another season to see what surprises it will bring!
