I almost stopped watching when Sam left all nice and loving and didn't 'tear the hinges off all the doors in that bytch' or 'rip anyone apart.' I do not understand why she even came on the show, obviously she didn't even want to play the game or even try to win. Did she ever win anything??

Yes Sam won 1 HOH, the Out On a Limb comp during week 4. It was a shame that they'd even have someone like her in the game, someone who really wasn't a fan of the game themselves. Plus I do agree with her having the robot penalty during week 1, it hurt her chances of truly getting to know people. I also believe that she'll be one of few definitely voting for Tyler to win if he makes it to F2.

I know. WTF is wrong w/her? She doesn't have to show her a@@, because her husband is a perv. She can have a modicum of dignity if she didn't bring his name up as if the predator needs to be touted as if he's some kind.

It's like she's decided to taunt people and make them stop watching. Is CBS going to let her continue hosting BB another season?

What made her change her crazy mind? Did Tyler and her cuddled under the covers?

Yeah, she won a power app. LOL. That she didn't use.

Oh.

I hope he puts up Tyler and Angela...

..and he did .

It made no sense for her to even apply for the spot, she always seemed like she would have rather been at home welding and smoking.

Yes she will definitely be voting for Tyler.

That definitely was a handicap early on, as it kept her, in very large part, separated from everyone else, while the rest of the house guests were able to freely hang out in person and start bonding. Sam seems to be probably a number of years older (second only to Steve, who was the first person evicted) than everyone else who is or was in there, which already was an automatic disadvantage for her in a house filled with 20-Somethings. I don't know how old Sam is, though will guesstimate perhaps around 35?

I have a feeling that it may already have been decided, by Julie and CBS, she'll leave after the end of this season, fully cutting her ties to the network, and that at this point she may just be burning off the remainder of the season due to all concerned feeling like it's transitionally necessary. If she remains there, being the wife of the booted former head of the network, who was ousted in disgrace, will be supremely awkward, and probably highly disagreeable, for all involved (she and people at the network).

At this point, Julie's chosen to stubbornly publicly take a stand and make herself a part of the story - which all she'd have needed to do is not start, and now keep, calling herself Julie Chen Moonves and she could have remained in a sort of neutral-appearing public position. Instead she's defiantly going out of her way to illustrate pride in, and to take clear sides with, her sexual-predator husband.

It's feeling like fully severing ties with CBS is perhaps inevitable, as her now insistently identifying herself as Julie Chen Moonves, when weekly appearing live, in primetime, on popular BB, seems designed to outright antagonize the network, like "screw you CBS." Isn't really the type thing a person goes out of their way to do when they're planning to stick around and wanting there to be good will.

Well according to her bio she's 27, but I'm guessing because she's a small town county girl who not into the same things people are her age. It's why she wasn't comfortable with all the flirting going on in the house. Plus she's one to wear her heart on her sleeve and has a sense of naivety, which is why she couldn't understand why people would try to backstab each other in the house.

Wow: I'd have never guessed Sam is that young. In every way, she's all along seemed older than everyone else (except, of course, Steve).

All of the above is exactly what I think too.

This may be true, but I think it was jealousy when she bugged out about the flirting.

I agree. Tyler should have gotten the boot, but if KC sticks around, she'l win.

Nope. There's no shame in her game.

I think it was jealousy too. Notice that she called Angie a b*tch (and rightly so); she seems to attack all the girls who were cozying up to guys in the house.

In that case Les should be happy now, as he has a job just like Charlie's: None.
