Oy! I hate it when they do this. I don't care if someone I loved has the potential to get back in the house (in this case, no), I just don't like it.
So tonight, after (presumably) Helen gets the boot, there will be a competition between Candice, Judd, Jessie, and Helen to come back in the house. I'm not a huge fan just because I think it's lame that a loser gets a second chance. That whole week it took to get that house guest out is pretty much null and void. It counts for shit, really.
I know some people don't think it's fair. I don't think it's fair. But it's Big Brother. When has BB ever been fair? Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those tin foil hat types that think the game is rigged for Amanda to win because she is best buds with AG. I don't buy that shit for a second. However, I do buy that the MVP was there to insure Elissa got to stay in the house for a couple of weeks. It was basically a life vest for Elissa's BB game. How ironic.
But I digress.
Honestly, I just don't like the fact that these people (with the exception of Helen) got to chill out for at least a week with no worries or stress.
I'm annoying myself now crying about it, so I'll stop.
What I think will be interesting to see is if Helen wins and comes right back in, how much she sticks to the promise everyone made to make sure to vote the returning house guest right out the door. I so hope that they don't give the person returning a free week. Make them play for HOH and earn not being shuttles right back out.
If the returning HG doesn't have a free week and doesn't win HOH, unless Elissa wins the HOH Candice, Jessie, and Helen will probably march right back out the door. I know earlier today Helen almost turned the house. I don't believe it would work if she came back. She lost.
Judd, on the other hand, I have no idea. I think if Judd came back then they may go ahead and go after Elissa this week. I know many people want Judd back in because he's entertaining. I won't deny that he is. I guess my dream scenario would be Judd to return. Spencer or Judd win HOH and put up Elissa and Aaryn, with the target being Elissa. While Elissa and Aaryn are campaigning (does Elissa even really campaign?) Judd, Spencer, and McCray make a final three deal that actually makes it to final three.
Really, I just want whatever gives Spencer the ability to win the game.
So yeah, I'm a hypocrite. I hate the returning house guest gimmick, but I also want to utilize it for the guys to win. I am fully aware of that.
I really hope they show some of Elissa's meltdown tonight, but I doubt it. If they are cutting to fish whenever they start talking shit about Elissa, they are probably protecting her from a bad image. Blah.
I also hope to see a meltdown when they announce an HG coming back, but you know how they are. They will probably all have dropped jaws and smile and look all cheery about it.
Regardless, it should be a good show.
