Big Brother 18 Premiere Night Recap | BB18 Episode 1 Review | June 22, 2016

[@nickbernard7187]

No mention of the train sound effect when they mentioned Becky? I was laughing my ass off!

[@maryhughes6372]

😂 so was I

[@MirandaH96]

Is this the best first episode edit ever in terms of the introductions? We got to see everyone introduce themselves to the house.

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

For sure in recent memory. There were a few annoying moments, but I really liked this whole episode.

[@beanme100]

Isn't it funny how Davonne is saying how much she hates Paul for being "loud and aggressive" when she has been like that this entire episode?

[@albertbanks6739]

+Real As It Gets They have no team chemistry between Paul and Davonne and Jozea and Zakiyah are just in the middle just watching like bystanders

[@Joey_495]

She was loud and aggressive in her DRs. Not in the house.

[@tonlo92]

Most people would look at how they played before & change their behavior. I don't see a change. She's still loud. She was not aggressive in a physical way but verbally aggressive during her first time. She reads people well but doesn't play a good social game so far. It's early so maybe she will change my mind. I found Paul obnoxious too.

[@1Ripstik]

I love how the recap is longer than the episode xD

[@loganrex2965]

Is it just me or does Frank's haircut make him look a lot less threatening?

[@restinpeacecocoapuffs3055]

It's not just you

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

He looks a lot more manly now with that clown hair cut off. Props to him.

[@andyholman6922]

Frank looks like a poindexter now

[@FishersFreightFan]

Before he looked a lot like his dad. Now he doesn't really look like his dad at all

[@KevinFalkmrbroadway456]

I kind of feel like that's the point he';s trying to lay low so he's not a target which so far is working out for him

[@eddie2558]

Really liked this episode!

[@rhaegartargaryen9710]

Did anyone else notice that when people were hugging after the castle puzzle challenge that Tiffany said no and withdrew when someone tried to hug her? That is def an anti-social Vanessa move.

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

Tonight's premiere is actually really good compared to the past few season's starter episodes. The competitions were fun to watch, and the teams this time are a lot more entertaining for an early eviction than the time Jodi was sent home by Dan. I just don't think I can stomach any more of Da'Vonne flipping out for two seasons in a row. As I predicted, she has no awareness of social skills- again.

[@VoiceOfSilence99]

Who do you want to get evicted first for this season? Rob could be right with his pre-game prediction on Glenn being the first person evicted - shocker!

[@beanme100]

In a commercial preview we see that the next competition is a tree that they have to climb on a wobbly platform. So rip Glen?

[@JANELLEFUCKINGPIERZINA]

HEY BEANME100! Will you ever create a new season of Total Drama? The last one was all stars and that was maybe a year ago..

[@kbpaul9589]

How much longer until we have to admit Day is really bad at this game?

[@tj-melissahopkins2526]

seriously

[@saranghae1saranghae]

Who's saying that Day was a favorite to win? I think people are cheering for her for reasons outside of win potential. The contestants aren't competing to get into the CIA. LOL. Who's NOT going to admit that Day is bad at this game? It's like asking if people are going to admit that vinegar smells pungent.

[@blackburnman101]

I wouldn't necessarily say she's really bad. Sure, she's not a great competitor and doesn't have the strongest social game, but she's much improved from last season at least. She's not going off on anybody so far and letting it all out in the DR so no one knows for sure who she's really mad at. She's also pretty good at reading people, considering she's one of two people to figure out that Tiffany is Vanessa's sister. She's not the best player by far, but I still like what she brings to the table.

[@tonlo92]

Hasn't gone off anyone so far. It was only day 1.

[@shannonkish1404]

Why with such a big pool of past contestants to choose from did BB pick siblings of former cast members from the same seasons as the returnees? #BB16 #BB17

[@KLDixon]

So how did all the returning players fit in that suitcase?

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

Trap door

[@Joey_495]

There was definitely a hole in the wall and they connected the suitcase to the wall.

[@CJC_95]

Day is terrible. Again. Emotional af. Hopefully gone soon. Again.

[@jeffogilvy5141]

Was that a Jacosta reference?

[@CJC_95]

chip whitley Yea good players go home 2nd and cry on their first days. Get a grip. Both her and Paul suck. "Your an idiot" Learn correct grammar before you call someone an idiot.

[@CJC_95]

chip whitley She didn't have losers or anyone on her team in BB17 and what happened? She went home 2nd. What's your excuse for that?

[@jetHawk5150]

agree

[@maryhughes6372]

I agree. I hope she goes VARY soon

[@TheFranchisePod]

Will you guys please rank the teams?

[@teaguecogdill1473]

Happy to be back.

[@MirandaH96]

What is this show and what happened to Big Brother

[@bignate197]

I feel like I'm watching survivor....

[@Rebecca-sd2uy]

Exactly what I was thinking. This is definitely not BB.

[@artiest5]

I feel like the producers listened to some of the people that were like "More Challenges" But it's pretty cool, just hope the teams go pretty fast, that did bother me a bit

[@lilrqlovesanime650]

Do you think Paul's behavior is ruining the team?

[@mackenzievattimo9205]

Yes.

[@demirbetsa3665]

the only reason people watch survivor last season was because of Jason and Scot once they were voted out everybody including tai was boring

[@demirbetsa3665]

he my be a bad person but he will be good tv

[@dontuck3]

heck yea

[@Rlessays]

Yup. It's "Rado all over again.

[@christianvera30]

How where the vets able to come out of the suitcase one by one?

[@rvandervest]

loving second competition of the show. cheers to production for switching it up a bit! - Is this something you think we will see more of?

[@TheFranchisePod]

How were all the returning players just popping out of that suitcase?

[@emilym26]

Any speculation on the "unprecedented comp" on Sundays? Maybe whoever wins gets to pick replacement if the POV is used???

[@andyholman6922]

Did anyone notice that the possible choice of Cavalry as a team name is exactly the same as the 4 Horsemen?

[@FishersFreightFan]

Jozea will be the second to go home because he said for Julie Chen to hit the road

[@classiccovergirl9213]

i kept saying why u telling her hit the road she didn't create the rules 😂😂😂

[@Matt-Rog3]

I remember Richard Hatch said in one of your podcasts that you should play with good, returning players instead of picking them off. Are any of these returners capable of being in that caliber?

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

I love Nicole, but she needs to go. No room for returnees for me this time. I don't want Glenn nor Tiffany to leave yet. Come on Boogie-Down Bronx, Tiffany, and Corey, pull it together!

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

I don't understand all the hatred toward Glenn. I'm seriously about to considering stooping to calling those fans who say that "ageist". I would have just grabbed those sandcastle pieces and changed them since puzzles are all supposed to secure evenly.

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

***** Brian, yes, definitely. He is the poster child for intense Big Brother.

[@sarahcristine6932]

YAASSSSSS

[@tj-melissahopkins2526]

totally agree. I need Glenn to stay for diversity and tiff to stay so we can see what she can do.

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

TJ-Melissa Hopkins I feel like Glenn has a lot more to offer in the game than just the diversity. I would be sad to see either of them or Corey being Jodi'ed.

[@MirandaH96]

Do we agree that it's a bad move to even attempt to hide that you're related to a past houseguest? In my opinion, Paulie played it perfectly while Tiffany is gonna look like a sketchy liar in a few weeks,

[@lilrqlovesanime650]

If she survives tomorrow then yes. But till then, she would of confessed other wise

[@MirandaH96]

I know :(

[@MirandaH96]

Yes, she missed her window!!!

[@bignate197]

There was an interview with the producers recently where they made no mention of Tiffany's gameplay (Aside from being Vanessa's sister)...Could this mean she's out tomorrow?

[@cameronmoe4627]

I think you might be overthinking that one

[@c3hanel54]

How long can each twist last?

[@xGreekProDiigyX]

Were the backyard photos taken before or after the competitions? If after, it looks like Nicole may be in deep trouble.

[@JANELLEFUCKINGPIERZINA]

Why would Nicole be in trouble? Was she not apart of the backyard photos? Please explain..

[@quinnmartin7343]

Brent is my favorite member of this podcast by far

[@TheDisneylover71]

Why does it say it's an hour and a half wrong and I'm only getting 15 mins

[@powerofpositivity5549]

if I have a question for tonights show I can ask them here, rather than on twitter, right?

[@TheFranchisePod]

Which returning player are you guys most exciting to see play again?

[@mackenzievattimo9205]

Frank!

[@evanjean9362]

Yeah definitely Frank!

[@sheMan32]

Da'Vonne or Nicole.

[@MirandaH96]

Frank no question

[@lilrqlovesanime650]

Mama Day

[@tonlo92]

I hate when the numbers are not even. If you are going to bring back vets then bring back an equal number to the newbies.

[@lilrqlovesanime650]

sooooooooooo.......... let me get this straight...... out of all returnees we have ....... they choose Da'Vonne, Frank, Nicole and James to return as "Legends" that are gonna be apart of the legends twist......... I'm happy to see Frank, Nicole and James back........ but DAVONNE!?!?!?! MAMA DAY OUT OF ALL PEOPLE?!?!?!

[@TheFranchisePod]

I like Nicole and Frank back

[@bigandlargepapi]

+vsaint why is bb15 blacklisted

[@lilrqlovesanime650]

penfieldsports BB15 was controversial not only in a Black listed matter but in a homophobic/racist behavior. The HG's in BB15 were filled was racist, Homophobic, some houseguest's lost their jobs including Gina Marie, Amanda, Aaryn. And Spencer was filled as Homophobic towards Andy. McCrae and Judd kept their jobs but McCrae wasted all of his money.

[@maryhughes6372]

I am disappointed that they brought back mama Day. I hated her so much that I erased her from my memory. I want her out ASAP

[@lilrqlovesanime650]

Mary Hughes you might be disappointed that Mama Day will stick around for a while.

[@ram010992]

You know it's a heavily recruited season when (according to the edit) only one person figures out Tiffany is Vanessa's sister. How could you not? But was Tiffany questioning Michelle about being a sibling a bad move?

[@joshgarmon8900]

can some upload the show on youtube i missed ep. 1 :(

[@avacarter2362]

You guys forgot to mention that paulie and Nicole have probably hung out before! He was even the first to greet her when she popped out of the suitcase

[@MirandaH96]

Paul reminds me of Jace and Austin combined. He has no chill and is way too aggressive. Bad gameplay because he's already making it clear to others that he is willing to lie to someone's face then go back on it.

[@rvandervest]

Did tiffany already tank her game.. by not coming clean when Paulie did??? all she had to do was say "yeah me too"... AND she denied it even when michelle made it clear how obvious it was. terrible move

[@Kammiechaos]

The individual comp is endurance it's all over twitter

[@FarzinVousoughian1]

Why did BB cast all recent players? All contestants are from the last four years. I would have loved to see some players from the first couple of seasons.

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

They are still held under CBS's contract and it's easier for producers to renew them than to get someone like Chicken George or Danielle Reyes or Diane to sign new ones. That's what I think.

[@Wcook09]

Can anyone tell me what the date the houseguests entered was?

[@XxJustPureAwesomeXx]

+Real As It Gets No, they entered the house last wednesday. We don't get to see the majority of the first 8-10 days.

[@Wcook09]

So did the first evictee already leave some days ago? It seems like they did all those comps on the first ep in the first day.

[@evanjean9362]

About the HoH thing, what if the HoH nominates a team instead of two people each week, and there's always a comp to determine who goes home, and then the HoH is from that team?

[@tonyrock1983]

Which alliance will end first, the newbies or returning players?

[@albertbanks6739]

+Real As It Gets Zakiyah and Jozea just sitting there like bystanders they don't have good team chemistry either so your probably right

[@shannonkish1404]

Does anyone else think it's weird that BB chose 2 people from the same season to come back #BB17? I would have preferred for them to chose cast members from different seasons or even for the returning players to be their with their siblings.

[@TheFranchisePod]

Shane was number 1 pick in bb14

[@rhaegartargaryen9710]

Your comments should be in verse. =)

[@evanjean9362]

Do you see each week, the "losing team" will get HoH for the next week? Or anything like that?

[@wyattmoyers8777]

What are they chances of a possible Core/ Nicole showmance?

[@wyattmoyers8777]

Real As It Gets Thanks Man, Nice Seth Rollins profile picture.

[@YoshiYoshi456]

Nicole and Hayden broke up?

[@wyattmoyers8777]

Jacob5664 She said she was single in the first episode, and she also talks about them breaking up all the time on the feeds.

[@YoshiYoshi456]

Wyatt Moyers I don't watch the live feeds

[@LeanneSupleve87]

I'm with Alex and really enjoy Paul.

[@ChristinafromColorado]

I am interested in this 3rd twist... Do you guys think the HoH will always come from the losing "team?" That creates a really interesting set up opportunity for throwing comps...

[@MidwestBeautyxo]

We have to remember he won most of the competitions, like Janelle and what happened to her when she came back

[@VoiceOfSilence99]

Is there any chance for Jozea and Zakiyah to get out of this stuck situation? Paul and Mama Day are battleing for leadership and they are being awkwardly silent in the shadows of this two battering rams...

[@jordanperry96]

Day can be very good at reading situations and finding things out but like last season I don't think she can get the point across in a way that will benefit her.

[@megflannery]

Was Da'Vonne this annoying last season? I don't remember her being so entitled or bossy.

[@shabanarm9336]

I found Nicole to be annoying tonight and I really liked her on her season. She seems so negative.

[@megflannery]

I love Nicole still. I think Da'Vonne was a lot more negative than Nicole.

[@AlbertsSlotChannel]

YES!

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

Da'Vonne has definitely gotten a lot more annoying than sassy. I don't remember her being this negative before.

[@Wildebeast-yd8fv]

"entitled or bossy" UM I'm pretty sure you're describing Paul, and not Da'vonne right now.

[@VoiceOfSilence99]

Did Big Brother not only gave us the Chen-bot and probably the Zing-bot but also the Corey-bot? His eyes are lifeless, he never blinks and he is just in an unhuman shape.

[@michellesmith4386]

No Ian Terry?

[@FPOAK]

I'm a bit concerned at the number of comments here wondering how the suitcase thing worked. Did you guys think they were all crouched in the same suitcase together for hours? Although that does sound like an experience that James might enjoy and maybe even pay for.

[@maryhughes6372]

✋I honestly did 😂😂😂

[@jhhayes7241]

Lol. Yes, that's typical of James.

[@Brizentinempire]

This doesn't seem like a popular opinion but I think Paul has Zach Rance upside. Thoughts?

[@NerdsRI]

Does Bronte remind you of a female Adam Jasinski from BB9?

[@Rnples75]

Plus or minus opioids?

[@JANELLEFUCKINGPIERZINA]

+Ryan Nokes LMAO

[@CameronLydon]

Did Rob just confirm that Nicole will be leaving first by claiming her as his winner pick?

[@robertprocon]

What was wrong with BB15?

[@baotienduong]

I loved so much how Tiffany didn't believe that Michelle wasn't Nicole's sister. Also, which cast member were you the most surprised by?

[@lilrqlovesanime650]

well...... she would eventually tell that Tiffany is Vanessa's sister..... I could see Michelle turning on her.

[@maryhughes6372]

I thought Frank was from Big Brother 2, but they keep on saying stuff like 'when we saw Frank on Big Brother 14....' So what season was he on? 2 or 14? Sorry, I didn't get into Big Brother until season 16. I caught the last month of season 15 but I started watching 16 from the vary beginning.

[@HorrorLover99]

Frank Eudy, who is playing this season was on season 14. The only other Frank was Frankie Grande on season 16.

[@TheFranchisePod]

What is your favorite Human Centipede movie?

[@baotienduong]

Do you like the team twist?

[@MirandaH96]

lol

[@ChristinafromColorado]

better than battle of the block!!

[@JANELLEFUCKINGPIERZINA]

+Christina Davis EXACTLY

[@FarzinVousoughian1]

Does it seem random that they just threw in 4 returnees? A 8-newbies and 8-returnees would shake things up, similar to Survivor's Fan's vs. Faves.

[@newyyykkll]

the producers are idiotic..

[@LFFunEmporium]

Bronte and Steve from last year know each other from last year's casting. Apparently the hit it off.

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

I feel like Glenn will do great in a puzzle or mental competition. Corey seemed clueless during the pyramid and sandcastle competition.

[@ChristinafromColorado]

I can't believe how rude Tiffany was when they lost. Someone (I think Victor) came to give her a hug and she literally pushed him away. She has some ego... no way to make friends in the house... the hugs are mandatory... wasn't that in the handbook??

[@lilrqlovesanime650]

wait, She Violated the only handbook in the Big Brother House?..... sooooo we apparently see that She isn't gonna make any friends

[@Mcgerkusc]

If Tiffany goes out first is it the biggest upset in BB history?

[@newyyykkll]

Bronte reminds me of Siobhan Magnus from American Idol 9

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

Imagining Bronte singing "It's A Hard Knock's Life" right now.

[@cameronmoe4627]

Now I know that the captain couldn't pick the whole team, but what do you think about the picks made by the returning players? Did you see anyone trying to do something like Dan in BB14 picking a weak, non-threatening team?

[@rvandervest]

is Tiffany officially screwed? or will Glenn/Nicole targets save her?

[@lipliner35]

Which veteran has the best chance at this point? Will there really be a pagonging of the veterans by the newbies? #rhap

[@albertbanks6739]

James I think

[@maryhughes6372]

What happens in BB15 that was so bad? Why does CBS want to forget that year?

[@jennamcdaniels2211]

so far it is looking too much like the coaches season. I was hoping for a more original twist with returning players.

[@mackenzievattimo9205]

For the hosts: who is your returning player pick?

[@dontuck3]

Da'Vonne For the Win!!!!

[@maryhughes6372]

+Real As It Gets I hope so, I don't like ether of them

[@YoshiYoshi456]

+Mary Hughes I honestly hope Paul goes home before her, he is so annoying and he shouts every time in the diary room

[@maryhughes6372]

+Jacob5664 I agree. But I hope Da'Vonne leaves right after Paul

[@YoshiYoshi456]

Mary Hughes Me to

[@YoshiYoshi456]

Mary Hughes But it won't happen because of the 8 pack and Paul may be going next if he doesn't win the veto

[@FlamingKong]

This whole team twist really screwed Glenn's game, tbh. Not that I thought he would win, just saying that I think without this twist he would have made it farther. Unless he doesn't lose!

[@tobiaswoodward4905]

Why's everyone hating on Day? Sure she has made 1 enemy on the first night (anything can change) but she kept Tiffany a secret, she was perceptive and she kept her opinions to the diary room and thought about connections!

[@restinpeacecocoapuffs3055]

My top 4 now: Tiffany, Bronte, James, Paulie

[@Matt-Rog3]

Which player got the most over-the-top edit tonight?

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

Da'Vonne. It's a premiere and I am already annoyed by her. Listening to Bronte was like music to my ears tonight.

[@sheMan32]

Not today satan!

[@emilym26]

Paul for sure

[@JANELLEFUCKINGPIERZINA]

+Emily M. yep

[@mrepic3785]

Is it possible for the teams to have come up with worse team names?

[@Rnples75]

From what has been shown it seems Like Da'Vonne has learned her lesson. If noms happen for the losing, team would she benefit from throwing it and try to get Paul nominated?

[@pnknailpolish]

I love Day!

[@greendaylover4771]

Why did they bring Nicole back out of all the woman from season 16? She isn't a strong competitor and her social game was terrible. She had her second chance and she blew it. There's no way she deserves 3 chances.

[@rvandervest]

is it just me or is production grooming bronte to be the female equivalent to jonny mac in DRs

[@ΜαριαΓκοτζαμαρλη]

bronte isnt annoying! bronte is queen! jmac was super annoying on the DRs

[@ΜαριαΓκοτζαμαρλη]

Real As It Gets IF u had seen all the interviews she has a great strategy. just because her voice is annoying doesnt mean she is bad.(her voice for em is cute)also why do u guys even judge people by their voice? she was born this way!

[@ΜαριαΓκοτζαμαρλη]

you will get used to her. jmac was annoying in his first days.

[@shabanarm9336]

How long do you think the returnees had to sit in those suitcases until they popped out?!

[@AlbertsSlotChannel]

I wondered same!

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

They definitely had an underground entrance hollowed through those suitcases.

[@jametime3847]

If Tiffany leaves, will she be the most hyped up reality tv contested to leave the game first?

[@VoiceOfSilence99]

Who is Da'Vonne's biggest danger in the house? Paul or Da'Vonne herself?

[@MirandaH96]

Herself. She blames everyone but herself when she is the problem half the time. She's entitled.

[@isiahhoggatt5416]

+Jaden Spliff I think it is in a fun dramatic way. Without Big Sister Id stop watching after today. Dysfunction is TV

[@rozozzy]

Her giant weave...lol

[@jabbahockey45]

If Tiffany was in S17, and Vanessa was in BB18, do you think Vanessa would've kept it a secret that she was related to Tiffany?

[@restinpeacecocoapuffs3055]

Just please not Tiffany. I would like Glenn to be safe too. Those two would make good tv. I do think it's one of Nicole or Corey going just because that conversation between them was so randomly put there. Who do you think is going based on edit? :D

[@tj-melissahopkins2526]

hmm interesting point! I also have a feeling it's Corey because someone pointed out on twitter that based on the DR sessions in the episode, Nicole was seen in 3 or 4 different outfits, tiff and Glenn were both seen in 2. Corey was seen in only 1! could mean he was out...

[@javiplays9308]

Is it just me or did Frank REALLY look like he did not want to be there the entire episode

[@wavy6617]

The "We are the Freakazoids" soundbite really tickles me for some reason.

[@samlewis6837]

Rob was the only one to get a final 4 right with Nicole: I know it's final 5 but Corey's HoH so she's safe

[@ram010992]

Unpopular opinion: Are we underestimating Glenn? He's clearly not a physical threat but he was the one who knew their castle wasn't right. Could he be a mental comp. threat?

[@ram010992]

True. And it probably will be.

[@hoteliwinshowcases]

I'm hoping Glenn survives tomorrow over anybody from that team. He seems like a truly wonderful guy who speaks from his heart and it would feel like another Jodi moment. I'm crossing my fingers for Nicole to go.

[@JANELLEFUCKINGPIERZINA]

+Marisa G I hope he does go...

[@MikaLovesChocolatte]

Man, I hope he stays but it looks like it'll be an endurance for elimination tomorrow. Tiffany fell off before he did in the 1st comp though, so maybe someone will mess up? And he was a police detective once upon a time so I don't think he's incompetent at all.

[@artiest5]

I don't care for him honestly, but I enjoy an underdog so maybe he should stay

[@rvandervest]

Was it a smart or dumb move for Paul, Zakiyah, and Jozeah to all be on the same team when they already had an alliance established ?

[@albertbanks6739]

Smart because people are gonna wanna come for Paul because his personality not Jozea and Zakiyah

[@shannonanderson1121]

Sad to hear that Nicole and Hayden broke up. Do you think she will invest in a showmance with Corey?
