One thing I wonder with these shows is what the payouts are like for <2nd place. Obviously with Survivor, BB, etc. we know the exact payouts for 1st and 2nd, but below that, do players just get whatever per diem the show gives out and that's it? Or are there still non-insignificant cash prizes that ramp up gradually the longer you last?

Because if it's the latter, then I understand the rationale much better from some of these Bowie Jane type players that know they're drawing dead, but are content to coast as far as possible doing nothing.

From what I understand for BB, it's $1000 a week for as long as you last, and if you make jury that includes time in the jury house. So $13k if you make it to finale night as part of the jury.

Plus you also have to consider they can make appearances, probably get minor product endorsements, a bit of small celebrity fame.

Excellent jury answers from Jag.

Reilly was a certified star in her brief time. I’m glad she gained some relevance at the end of the season

How do they never tell us that Matt lived in the Have not?

Probably because it makes the show look bad. But it’a fascinating and strategic on his part

Legitimately shocked Cameron won AFP. Cirie and Matt stole a lot of votes from each other.

After first pair of jury questions, it was clear Jag was gonna own it. Thought he laid it out a little too thick/was a bit too aggressive in his verbage at the end, but overall was a very solid performance.

+1 to being shocked Cameron won AFP. I thought someone like America was gonna win; in the polls I saw on jokers, she was like #1 all season I thought. Cameron never seemed like someone that America particularly loved

Would you say she did nothing if she nominated Matt and Jag during the double eviction and Jag got voted out because Matt won the veto? Then, she realigned with whomever, and made another strong move when she won HOH at final four? Her resume would have included Cameron going out on her HOH and Jag going out on her HOH, and then, whomever at final 4...probably someone significant. She didn't have to do nothing is the thing I'm complaining about. She was in prime position to do something and chose to help someone else win instead. She wasn't remotely drawing dead if she wanted to play to win. From some inexplicable reason she didn't want to do that.

Satisfied to see that Jag won because over the other two, he definitely deserved it.

And I guarantee they will have Cameron back on the next All Star season.

I think America was only popular because she was hot, not for her scintillating game play.

If a pirate wanted to watch old Big Brother seasons, specifically 10 and 14, where might that pirate go?

There are no torrents to be found, and the BB10 playlist on YT stops working after episode 15.

(Would love to pay for it, but alas, I am based in Denmark and can't access it on CBS, Paramount+ or Netflix)
