[Aug 12 Ep. Spoiler] Sam's Edit

SpoilerPlayer Discussion

Do you think tonight's edit of Sam is to prepare the audience for if she were to self-evict or get pulled from the game? I don't necessarily think either will happen, but she's threatened it a couple of times.

Tonight's edit really showed how miserable she is in the house and definitely had a different tone than her previous edits.

That's exactly what I think they were doing.

Also Haleigh mentioned putting her up due to her breakdowns and the "I hate being here" crap. So I imagine they just didn't want any of the above to seemingly come out of nowhere.

I loved the Sam and JC edit lmfao!

JC is like a little kid all innocent like “what is a curb stomp? Why would you ever want to do that? Would they die?”

And Sam is all dark and depressing like “yeah they either die a painful death or live the rest of their miserable life without teeth”

It was hilarious

I watched this on the feeds and thought it was hilarious, especially his "that was terrifying" after she left. I never thought they would put it on the show. It was hilarious and completely unedited - she went from talking about curb stomping to asking JC to make her bed with zero transition.

I can't say I laughed that hard in a while .... its basically a blood hole..... don't mess up my bed lol

What kind of movies do you watch!

ThatDeliveryDude•

I haven’t been watching a lot of the feeds and I been seeing a lot of people saying Sam is losing her mind but I never saw any evidence.

So this was like my first reveal to what y’all were talking about lmao. Yeah she is totally having a mental crisis

And the immediate cut to “I’m getting a snack, don’t mess up my bed,” would have been a thousand times more funny if it was fictional and I wasn’t absolutely afraid for Tyler and JC’s lives

13
ThatDeliveryDude•

Dude! Lmfao that Tyler reaction was priceless too!

Cut to just Tyler making a face like “Wtf is Sam telling JC? What’s wrong with this girl” lmao

Abundanceofpizza•

Was that actually how it played out on the feeds or a good edit?

ThatDeliveryDude•

Didn’t see it on the feeds, but those who did say that’s exactly how it went lmao.

Almost no edit necessary

I really think they've been talking with Sam this week privately, and are planning on letting her self evict on Thursday, saving Rockstar and whoever else is on the block.

They'll probably let America be the missing jury vote, which suuuuuuucks. Sam not wanting to play the game and Kaitlin fucking up that puzzle really threw this season off.

When Dick left in BB13 they continued with the week as normal. Not doing the eviction would be really unfair since the nominations and discussion surrounding them reveal a lot of information, and having them not lead to an eviction could seriously screw up someones game. Plus, if you could cancel an eviction by self-evicting, it would encourage showmances/really tight couples to self-evict to save each other (the useless one self-evicting to save the other one), which I'm pretty sure production does not want to encourage.

Good point. Sam's just in such a weird spot now. I can see everyone wanting to drag her to F2 with them which will be utterly miserable to watch.

18
honeyfageMr. Jenkins•

I wonder what they would do if Sam self-evicts. I would think in a normal season they would just cancel a double eviction, but I imagine they already did that for Kaitlyn's puzzle flub. It seems like there's normally 2 a season nowadays, so I wonder if they would be willing to cancel the second one as well, if they'd cut the season short a week, or if they'd add in an extra twist to extend it (a rewind pandora's box, buyback, or whatever).

surejan94•

Even thanks to Kaitlin's eviction, they have to do either a jury buyback or a reset week to meet the schedule. Realvegas4sure even said there's a chance we're not getting a single double eviction this summer, which is insane since they're the most popular episodes of the season.

Sam evicting would really mess things up, which is why I think production has been working so hard trying to keep her. At that point they need to shorten the season by a week.

I think if Sam self evicts, we should have an eight person jury and either do what BBCAN3 did and let the final three unanimously evict somebody from the jury or let the jurors compete for their vote. Whoever comes in last doesn’t get to vote at the finale. SCENARIOS.

For some reason I recall (maybe falsely) that they have different rules for if it's before or after the veto. That could be for something else though.

don_dimelo•

Sam thinks Rockstar is staying so she probably won't do that.

She's going to flip the fuck out after the veto meeting when R* is still OTB.

DavuddddBrett•

was sam a recruit?

i’m asking because if she is then that sucks. she’s too sweet for the game and someone who actually applied should’ve been casted.

25
17th_knightTyler•

She was and she only watched like two clips on YouTube before coming in.

If you don't know what you're getting into this game can be brutal. It's not right that they do this to recruits

48
worms143OP•

To be fair, they gave her season(s) to watch and she just chose not to, but I definitely empathize with her. She said she thought the game was about competing in competitions, then everyone would just hang out and have normal conversations. She had no idea that people campaign against people. I think she thought it was more like if you lose a competition you go home. Actually, I have no idea what she thought the show was about.

66
BangerPatrol•

well she should've watched the seasons like she was instructed to, nothing to be fair about.. she just shouldn't be playing this game

43
CypherexTyler•

It still comes back to the casting agent that recruited her. They just shouldn't be recruiting people who don't know anything about the game. It's ok to recruit people who aren't major fans or anything like that, but they should at least know what the game is about and preferably have seen an episode or two before.

There are plenty of people who want to play this game. We don't need to keep recruiting people who end up not wanting to play it.

illini02•

Well, that is her own fault then. I'm sorry, but the show has been on 16 years or whatever . If you agree to go on a show like this for 3 months and don't bother looking up what its like, you are an idiot

Sam is anything but sweet

Can someone explain to me how Sam was a recruit? I’ve never heard of anyone being recruited on Big Brother until this. Thanks.

23
worms143OP•

Sure! Along with people auditioning for the show, casting also seeks out people they think would be a good fit. They search on social media for candidates as well as just out and about. For example, Hayden from season 16 was a pedicab driver in Santa Monica and someone from casting was getting a ride from him, liked him so much they recommended him to the casting team. I think they found Sam on social media and sent her a message about being on the show. I believe a little less than half the casts are recruits at this point.

59
_ReallyCoolHat_•

The casting team may see someone out in public or on social media they think would be a good fit for the show and encourage them to apply. They aren’t forced to do the show just encouraged

14
MayoralCandidateVanessa Rousso•

Well I'd hope production isn't driving around Los Angeles forcing people they find interesting to do Big Brother... although the idea of Gr*dner kidnapping people at gunpoint and throwing them in the house would probably send the ratings off the charts.

18
fives8•

Yes I think they send a lot of Instagram DMs. My friend has a really large insta following and was recruited but she said she would never do it. Which is too bad cause she’d be incredible! Her sister applies every year too and would also be awesome.

Somerset3282•

Dammit! My instagram is private. This is why I haven’t been recruited yet!

ashella•

Not the case with Sam, but CBS also likes to move applicants around between their three competition shows. You may apply to be on The Amazing Race but casting thinks you'd be a good fit for Suvivor and then you end up on Survivor not really knowing the game as well as you know TAR. That sort of thing.

3
SmartLlama•

That’s how Cody got cast last year, his audition tape was for Survivor. Which I think would’ve been way more enjoyable for him lol

Can someone link me to the video of sam asking rockstar about people making fun of her. RS is eating while this is happening

6
thepanone•

I think at this point, she needs to self evict. She is so overwhelmed by this game.

6
RaiderRush2112Derrick•

She has tried but production keeps talking her out of it saying she will be hated by America if she does

Oh I know. It sucks.

I mean, she looks like she is losing it. I've read about that, but seeing it was something else. I think Haleigh should just get her out now. She is going crazy in there.

sapalap•

I think they were trying to play up the “option” that Haleigh might put up someone not in L6

dontcallmecandie•

Yeah as someone who doesn't have the live feeds, it was confusing to me. I've felt for a few weeks that she was a bit of a floater, but I never got the impression that she was miserable and ready to self-evict. The only reason I knew she was miserable before last night's episode was because my husband told me she was in the DR for a good hour before the live eviction on Sunday threatening to leave. Otherwise, absolutely no clue. I had gotten the impression that she has never seen the game before with her moping and complaining about how people are acting but I never suspected she was as miserable as they showed last night.

ivegot_IT•

Did they not air that stomping a mudhole/curbstomp bit last week as well? Or did I just see a video of it floating around here? I have definitely seen it before and I was thinking they aired it twice, but then thought that would be very odd for BB to do...

1
armyofsnarkness•

I think she made an off-hand comment to Tyler previously about 'stomping a mudhole' in someone.

2
mstone024•

I have to imagine it’s also a bit personal for the producers at this point, with her nearly sabotaging a live show. They must have a serious case of buyers remorse, and must just really be tired of having to handle her at this point.

What did she do?
