ok. I went through ALL the Ep 1 confessionals for all the cast tonight (wow it's 3am). I know I'm super behind with this, but i've been really busy with the meetup and work and internet problems/just being granted PW (THANK YOU!). I REALLY wanted to pitch in as the game moves along, so i'm going to try to tackle 1 ep of confessionals a night until i'm caught up.
Here's what I think about all of them - only a brief review and VERY short for some - I just wanted to write this down somewhere for memory and it was awesome going through iS21 PW and seeing what people's impressions were of me while the game went on.
Amanda - mimi? but really... bold personality and i probably wouldn't get along with her in the game. i think she's a little too strong.
Christina - cute. u go grl.
Vic - is this drew? same basement? #twerklove.
Taylor - too confident
Jacob - I am INACTUALLOVE.
Jess - brief. boo.
Charlie - old cray gay. wtf is he even saying. surprisingly i understand the breakdown of the alliances and i liked that he has a decent handle on the game from what it seems.
Brandon - new but not naive - he's battling but being smart about riding with Charlie.
I love that Charlie and Brandon are keeping Katie in the dark about the alliance - false sense of confidence.
Katie - she's REALLY up front in running the game. hindsight is 20/20, but i think she's being really aggressive
Chandni - young and strategic. terrible to make the alliance so obvious. she actually seems pretty adult for someone so young. She wants to play a "fair game" but immediately runs to the first person she's familiar with for an alliance?
Ashlee - Super sweet until she found out that she was on Kevin's radar. boom goes the dynamite.
Kevin - I'm bored, but it could be going into it with a mindset that i knew he was gone.
Derek - paranoid. easily invested to Joanne
Jared aka Papa Gay - killer enthusiasm and he's SO SMOOTH with his confessionals. so entertaining to watch and i can't wait to see more. I'm 100% with this guy right now.
Joanne - I love that she's playing her own game, but she didn't provide much ifnromation to make her any strength of a character thusfar. I love that the other players that she wants to team up with are seeing her EXACTLY how she wants them to
Nikki - also really entertaining and so far pretty smart. after seeing her confessionals, i really hope she moves far with Joanne and their duo.
Ash - total sweetheart, i'm sure, but i see where Jared is coming from - probably the most childish of the younger people in the game. she's quirky and competitive, but she's giving me an anxiety attack just watching her confessionals - SUPER COMPARABLE TO SHAILY..but hindsight shows me shaily's funnier than i had thought during the game. Give Ash 5 years and i bet we could be great friends. All that being said, i hate that she was SO on the outs - this would have been gray's position had he not been able to rattle over, but Ash can't avoid the outcome as easily as rattling out. i'm empathetic with the shitty feeling that must be.
Yapp - EN.ER.GY. love it. i see how much of a difference this makes in confessionals. smartest idea to keep a secret about not knowing any other players in the game - i'm glad he pointed this out since Jared didn't. also glad he points out nikki, joanne, and jared as a dangerous set.
In conclusion... first thoughts... all in all, i LOVE the enthusiasm from pretty much everyone. some of them are more vocal about it, but the cast in general is super diverse and i love them. good work.
