Seven houseguests started Week 11, and four are left going into tonight. Barrett and Yash went in the double eviction on September 17. Devens won Head of Household and nominated Drew and Melody. Drew won the veto and saved himself, Taylor went up in his place, and Melody was evicted on Monday when Devens broke a 1–1 tie. Taylor then won the final four Head of Household and nominated Drew and Dee. Drew won the final veto, which takes him off the block, puts Devens up beside Dee, and leaves Drew with the only vote. His options are Dee and Devens. Whoever he keeps joins him and Taylor in the final three, and Part 1 of the Final Head of Household is played tonight.
Drew uses the veto on himself
Devens and Dee are the nominees
Drew votes to evict DEE
Dee is evicted. she calls Drew a weasel on her way out.
7:18 pm
Feeds are somewhat bearable with Dee gone.
8:12 pm Big Brother blocks the feeds .. likely for Part 1 of the 3 Part HOH competition to start..
It’s official — the Cuban Missile Crisis is averted! Dee’s worst fear has come true: her game was ended by a 22 year old.
I’m not surprised Dee lasted this long, but I’m very impressed with how she was able to survive an eviction vote against Angela.
She made a good decision getting Ashley out on her first HOH, she led the vote flips on Lyric and stanky Chuk, she convinced Devens to use his DPOV to save her at a critical time, she got out the Pipe Queen who was coming for her, she led the charge getting all icons to Jury during the elimination games, her Veto stunt forced Barrett to barricade himself in his HOH room while she whipped the votes to stay no matter what, and her BB Bribe allowed her and Devens to make Final 6 without breaking a sweat.
Like it or not, Dee has brought back “Big Brother” gameplay we used to see in the old school seasons. She’s proven “Survivor” players can thrive in this environment.
BB Jury Analysis:
4. Dee — newly minted BB Legend!!
5. Melody — she was all bark and no bite for most of the season. She was held hostage by the whims of other HGs who had the power to change the game. Then she gained power for a brief moment to take a shot at Yash on DE night. But she needed to win out and evict of the two icons in order to win, and was unable to do it. “Big Brother” just wasn’t her game.
6. Yash — despite his impressive wins, his gameplay was all for naught. His first HOH was usurped by Diamond Devens and lost an ally in Kamu all because he didn’t want a man evicted. The BB Bribe prevented him from taking a shot at the icons on his second HOH. He kept Dee over Angela like an idiot! He didn’t pick Taylor to play “Pressure Cooker” because he didn’t want the icons mad at him. Then he gave the “Pressure Cooker” comp win to Drew out of fear he’d win the last BB comp. And he got evicted out of all people on Melody’s HOH. He was a dud with a terrible haircut.
7. Barrett — my final pre-season pick evicted at 7th place. Not only did he play the middle well, he knew when to pivot and take the shot to officially break the icons up. He just couldn’t survive the consequences of his moves the following week. Barrett is the only newbie who deserves to win AFP!
8. Angela — she played a lot better than last time. She fanned the flames for Devens to backdoor Rome, won a critical BB comp that forced people to evict Kamu, and maintained good relationships with people while not letting her paranoia implode her game. I think she had a case to win this time if she made it to Final 2 with the right person.
9. LaLa — this 58 year old lady was my second pre-season pick, and played better than most of the HGs. She flipped the game targeting Red Corner after beating Kamu in “The Wall” HOH comp, she won a jazzercise Veto comp that resulted in Mallory’s pre-jury eviction, and she used cooking as a means for the house to keep her as long as she did. Despite being #confused, it worked to her advantage at times. Her eviction was due to Barrett needing to keep up good appearances with the icons.

i still don’t know why it would be a better game move to take dee. Now drew likely gets 1st or 2nd place depending on if he wins final HOH. first one is an endurance comp. Devens did not do well in the pressure cooker. I’d say Drew will win that – but of course you never truly know.
Last one is dates (usually) . Based on the video from the veto Devens literally looked horrible while Drew knew every date.
Now if Drew doesn’t have the guts to evict devens. Then I agree it was a terrible move.
He should beat Taylor no matter what unless its a bitter jury.
Dee has screwed him over every chance she had. I’d rather take 1st or take second than lose to Dee. Although Dee was a class act in her post eviction interview. Maybe the survivor players were slightly better than the rest.
I wouldn’t think Drew would have the votes against dee no matter what. (Surviving the block 3x times after getting out everyone before you?!?!? ) But I guess if he actually had a chance against Dee, then maybe it was the wrong move.
the argument for taking dee is that she doesn’t really know the game and probably hasn’t studied for hoh part 3 so she’s likely the easiest to beat in the final hoh comp.
I believe Devin’s and Drew’s concerns, and rightfully so, are that the women in the jury will vote for a woman regardless of their game play. It’s also dangerous to sit next to Taylor for another obvious reason given BB juries have a recent history of virtue signaling what great people they are by voting for players based on genetic traits.
Part 3 is usually “how much do you know about your fellow house guests”, and is a “fill in the blank” type of deal where they make a statement and and a word or phrase is left out. The two players have to pick and A or B answer as to which is the correct to fill it in. Last season Ashley got the first four right and Morgan missed every single one of them, which is why Ashley won in only those four questions and picked Vince to go to final 2 with her. She knew the jury couldn’t stand Vince, and she won because of that.
It’s pretty much impossible to study for a comp like that, but missing 4 out of 4 was an impressive choke job by Morgan.
Sorry Grod you’re dream didn’t come true, your precious Dee is gone.

September 24, 2026 7:18 pm
Of all those times I thought it was so stupid that they didn’t vote out Dee, and now that it finally happened, it’s possibly a game losing move.
Risking it all on the final HOH.

September 24, 2026 7:26 pm
I’m super happy that Dee is finally gone BUT Drew should have voted out Devens for his own game to win it all.
People like Devens more and he’s more of a threat with comps.
Dee won a million on Survivor and the jurors aren’t as willing to give her more money.
And sorry Taylor,she was basically a floater in the game but she always did know what was up in the gameplay in the house.
A floater that won 2 comps; and the HOH when needed. Dee won just 2 comps. The first one with the help of Yash, the second one Mallory and Barrett admitted to throwing the comp. Taylor survived the block a few times. She was in the houseguest ears; just like Dee. She just wasn’t a bully about it.
Dee had many advantages in the game, as well as being in a huge alliance; but not Taylor.
Would you call Dee a floater? Because she really didn’t have to do much work. The houseguest were horrible players, she had many advantages, and she always had the numbers.
Soooo…
With all of that, Dee and Devens most definitely should be at the end. It was a layup.
That’s like Pippen passing the ball to Michael Jordan for a layup. Lol
Yes!!!!!!,,,Finally karma caught up to Dee. hahahaha
Rubber Ducky For The Win
September 24, 2026 7:33 pm
Well, Drew made his choice and it was probably the better of his two options if he wants to make it to final two. Taylor could still possibly prove to be a spoiler in the last HOH comp to prevent an alleged icon from winning, but at this point I say Devens for the win. He’s earned it, even with all the built in advantages he had the moment he entered the house.

September 24, 2026 7:45 pm
D/R count.
so sorry. I accientally spilled on my cheat sheet and had to rewatch a section to get the oount.
I hope I’m close. but you should get an idea:
TIER ONE (200 +)
Dee 269
Devens 261
Drew 235 TIER TWO (150-199)
Taylor 150
Mkay.
What are the chances Taylor jumps 50 d/r in a week?
Devens can catch Dee easily now to become voice of season.
Drew? 34 d/r in a week isn’t totally unheard of…. but in a final 3 week it is rare.
Stuntcast seasons are built different. Remember the number of d/r Cirie and Rachel had in top tier levels.
Except Ashley and Kaycee since 16 all winners have had top tier d/r inclusion so that viewers can trace their game from beginning to end. it’s part of the gee how did they know week one of it all.
If anyone wants to watch the first 2 episodes again…
look for first named alliances in ep 1 or 2. first final 2 deal. if they correlate it usualy means one is going to be in final 2.
Look for the first d/r saying i’m going to win this season… especially if in the houseguests’ first d/r of the season.
Look for someone that has more d/r than they should week one (someone not HOH, nor veto holder nor target).
Last one. Look for someone talking about manufactured danger. We know they weren’t in danger but in d/r they are talking about being in peril week one.
THESE ARE TRICKS THE EDIT FORMULA USES. THERE ARE MORE, BUT I THINK MOST OF THESE APPLY TO THIS SEASON. I THINK.
I no longer watch Survivor. I quit watching it years ago. My tinfoil hat and edit reading was 20 x worse with survivor.
9 seasons in a row I named the winner of the season by the end of the first episode. It really pissed off my friends.
So I have tried to watch an episode here or there. Each time I’ve told one of my friends my winner pick after ten minutes watching with no clue what is going on in the season.
She has asked me not to tell her anymore because it ruins her enjoyment.
So I don’t watch.
Late 20’s to mid 30’s would be season numbers when I stopped watching. It so happened that in that period i was also working late nights. I found that I didn’t miss it, so I didn’t bother trying to watch at that point.
There was something that others have coined the winners edit.
It’s the way that they highlight certain houseguests in confessionals.
I forward thru most of the episodes. It was hard to watch again. Lol. I googled it and it said during week 2 that Devens was one of the people in DR often. I think in week one it showed Angela and Drew.
The first alliance I actually saw on episode 3 was Kamu, Chuck and Hailey. Dee was actually HOH. Episode 2 was that silly show unlocked or whatever.
The named alliances i remember first presented were redcorner and xover. The Kamu Haley and Chuk… I don’t remember it being named. Until they get a name in us bb… they aren’t real.
I don’t think dee and devens made a final 2 deal. But i don’t remember if they did or who it was that did in the first episodes. Episode one was a wash because it was safety comp episode introducing 2 of the stuntcasts. But there is a possible first d/r of someone saying they are going to win the season to look for.
i don’t know who had the gonna win d/r.
I was trying to NOT be me first part of the season so I put away most prodo analysis until i got peeved by the stuntcast behavior and production manipulaton that was so obvious that I couldn’t look away and pretend.
i know the usual tells because bbcan was hyper obvious with the tells. I applied the same storyline season arc formula to us bb and it worked still.
Trojan horses and trying to figure out which named alliance member in the first televised final 2 is the golden child guaranteed final 2… that becomes the issue.
Manufactured danger we had 2. Devens whining about how he and Dee aren’t close so she could target him (a biiiiig lie) and I think there was an odd Taylor d/r. More than once i would think winner was the other member of the final 2 both in the first named alliances on air… the trojan horse.
All i am concerned about at this point really is Julie having said something about changes to the final HOH. I keep hoping I misunderstood that.

It’s still anyone’s game. Of course everything depends on who wins final HOH. And who they chose to sit in the second chair. So much can happen between now and Thursday. Devens, Drew and Taylor all smart likeable people who played very different types of game. Plus, many on the jury have strong opinions, tend to be emotional and are stuck in their ways of thinking. Great season..
