There was The Bomb Squad of season 16 that fell apart by week 3 when Devin went rogue.

There are already cracks showing in Gr8tful, so it will be interesting to see how far they go.

Clearly the HGs choreographed a hallway dance.

In the end, only one of them will get back in.

There are pros and cons to this twist, for both the houseguests and the evictees.

Do they forget we see them as slobs the rest of the week?Yes!

I guess sitting on the couch and talking to Julie is like their one night out on the town.

The things our staff do on this show are amazing and, many times, absurd.
