There’s something oddly poetic about how the house spent the entire season trying to beat Janelle in a comp to make her vulnerable, and in the end, Mike was able to make her vulnerable by throwing a competition, which shocked her into losing. It’s like finding out the best way to win a race is to run backwards
Janelle and Michael are both legends of Big Brother for their insane comp wins alone. It's crazy how unstoppable Janelle was in BB6/BB7; 3rd place twice in a row with a huge target on her back coming in both times! Yes, even coming in her first time people labelled her as a threat, yet she still persevered. Amazing.
what michael did was impressive but i don't see him remembered on the level janelle has been. what she did, she did in the honey spot of the show's prime. put another way, michael had a great season, janelle had a great career. best of any non-winner and it's not even close.
Janelle is arguably one of the very best who has never won. She does not lay low and actually makes moves in the game, which I respect a lot. I don't have much respect for floaters in the game or people who hide behind their alliance members. Let's put it this way. Nicole F won BB18. If you were HoH, who would you want out? Janelle or Nicole F. End of story.
@davidlui9942 Janelle is one of the best physical competitors out there. However, Chilltown carried BB7 most of the time by being responsible for majority of the house going home. She had so many chances to put both of them up but for some reason didn't. She's definitely cemented her name into the BB legends board though.
Had Janelle won this season, I don’t know which season between BB7 and BBCAN5 would be my favourite ever. What a ride! The back and forth, Janelle losing her allies, Janelle being alone and despite being against the odds still made it far. I never get tired of seeing videos about her BB7 run!
@@barr4ckObama240she is the ABSOLUTE best competition player (arguably even against Michael) which is CRAZY. she definitely deserved to win all stars 1 imo but I am biased because I dislike boogie due to the allegations. She did lose fair in square but I think she should’ve won.
Janelle has a lot more records that can’t be broken Janelle is the third woman to have 485 confessionals Janelle also been nominated overall 13 time more then any other houseguest in big brother Janelle was the first houseguest to ever veto one of his/her nominations Janelle is the only player to play the game four times Janelle is the only female player in all stars to win HOH multiple time by winning 4 times
Me and all my homies think you should do a video about Diane Henry’s gameplay on Big Brother 5, as the original player to completely flip the power in the house and to essentially control the entire endgame until her heartbreaking demise
It seems to me that Janelle’s biggest strength is just some incredible memorization skills. All Stars seemed to have comps that weren’t as reflex/strength oriented, and more puzzle solving in nature. Like I think the only comp Janelle won that didn’t heavily lean on remembering things is the week 1 veto (and I suppose the ‘what will you risk’ challenge, which isn’t really skill oriented so I don’t count it). I think that helps explain to me why Janelle was so above rate this season, because her best comp skill was so heavily represented in the challenge distribution, it made her way more likely to win.
Janelle is a queen, I was so mad that she was so early out in all stars 2 … but to be honest she was one of the the few actual stars in this season soo i guess it’s ok
I have literally have never watched an episode of big brother before and don’t understand the game at all but these videos are so good for me to fall asleep too or for me turn my brain off.Keep up the good work
Janelle didn't make your top 10 players video, but I think you should reconsider. I think you let her second two seasons tarnish her image in your eyes. But they don't undo all the things you just said in this amazing video (really, you are the BEST), and that's why she makes my top 10.
Janelle is the star of big brother. But she simply is not a great big brother player, because she never successfully demonstrate any kind of strategy. Obviously her comp win streak is legendary, but all she did was just keeping herself safe one comp at a time. She almost never had control of the house, never strategically reposition herself to a better place, and never made any great gameplay. And that is not even considering her season 14 and season 22 runs. Still love her though.
even though her record was broken, i still am fathomed at that fact that Janelle was pretty much safe until the final 3 because of her hoh wins, her alliances hoh wins, and her veto wins. LOVE HER
I don’t know how but every video you put out is amazing. Considering how much work and effort you put into these videos you should have a bigger audience! 💙😃
Idk what’s in our 11,842 lakes, but there’s about a 60% chance that, if a Minnesotan is cast on Big Brother, they’ll be a comp beast and set/break a record. Janelle (set the veto and total comp record, tied the HoH record), Michael (broke the veto record and tied the total comp record), and Hisam (first person to win 3 out of the first 4 comps of the season) vs. McCrae and some other BB15 cast member.
McCrae was pretty solid. He won the first HOH and Veto, and went on a mini hot streak in comps winning F7 Veto, F6 HOH, and F5 Veto, before he got eliminated in 4th place
I wish we got to see more of Janelle being a comp beast during The Amazing Race. I loved the dynamic between Britney and her on the race (Britney was super funny), but ngl she slowed down Janelle a bit and I would've really loved to see Janelle continued to conquer the race challenges as she did during the episodes they were there.
I’m convinced they cast majority of recruits cuz they dont know that the most comp winners competitors are likely to be booted in a double eviction lol
Look, say what you will about Season 14, but seeing Boogie and Janelle being more forward with their rivalry was just alot of fun. The back to back eliminations of the two in 14 were two fun weeks. Man, I truly miss some of these old school big brother rivalries.
It's insane how nobody has broken my record for the most consistent commenter of all time. I have commented you to rank anything at this point but I still want you to rank every eviction ever. However, if you refuse I have a different idea. "The Entire History Of Third Nominees"
Third nominees is actually a good idea that could work and might not be that hard to make. We'll have to wait and see. If this season ever has a 3rd nominee, then this is looking very likely
Thank you for doing this video!! Was an amazing and then such a huge let down getting 3rd place for.second year, but the bb queen was always a class act, and I never get sick of watching hearing or looking at her ❤️
Personally, I find Michael's record a bit more impressive since Janelle definitely has the asterisk of the redo of the week 6 HOH. But there's no denying that Janelle's achievement is seriously awesome and there's a reason it took so long to even tie.
Michael also did play more strategically to manage his comp threat. The problem was that he was so good at comps to a degree where he could only keep his comp threat low for so long. Sure, he also should have thrown a few more comps that he won unnecessarily, but the man definitely showed real strategic chops within the house!
I would have to argue that he week 6 hoh should have an asterisk because the technical difficulties affected the outcome of the hoh so we don’t know what would happen. She won the fair version of the comp fair and square. Also most of michaels wins he wasn’t under any sort of pressure and Janelle performed times and time again under pressure so I have to give the edge to Janelle
@@itzpeanut1382 I'd disagree with that last point. Around half of Michael's wins were under the exact pressure as Janelle. (Week 1 Veto, Week 3 Veto, Slip and Slide Veto and then the HOH right after that.)
Great video on my favorite bb player! It’s crazy to think that Janelle was one double tie breaker in season 6 and accidentally letting go of that key in all-stars in the HOH from making final 2 and likely winning either season. That’s why she was targeted right away in 14 and 22 because of her strong history.
i think an amazing future video would be to rank all of the BBUS seasons based on the season overall you've done top 15 players, worst to best diary rooms, now its time for worst to best seasons based on watchability or however you want to do it
Hey! I love your videos and I am a huge fan of you. Can you do a video/analysis on Alison Irwin from Big Brother 4? Everyone hypes up Dr. Will and Boogie but nobody talks about Alison. She slept with a contestant just to be saved from the chopping block and then backstabbed him two weeks later. She was also a comp beast, and a floater who played both sides. Everyone knew it yet didn’t vote her out. Even though she got 2nd, I am still fascinated by her gameplay.
I'm eventually doing a video on Jun, and there will likely be lots of Alison mentions in that video. It wont be a full dissection of her game but it will be somewhat informative
It's because as a human being, on Season 4, she was kinda disgusting. She cheated on her at home bf, called Robert a Cuban Fag, and made some pretty off comments about his daughter.
Please talk about big brother Canada which I like better than the US version out of 11 of bbcan seasons 6 of those I find all time favorites as bbcan10 being my favorite season of all big brother
best competitor* tbh Janelle was never a good "player"- she didn't have a good strategy in all her seasons BUT her legacy as the most iconic comp beast BB has ever had will live on
A couple of things that just came to mind given recent events. One, an idea is for you to cover the history of the "pick your prize" veto comps and two, hope do you feel about Felicia losing despite outscoring Jag in Round 3?
Janelle is a combo beast no doubt. But her strategy game is not great. You could have got rid if chill town on so many occasions but she let herself be manipulated by them
Will you ever do a video where you rank the house designs like you did for the Diary Rooms? I assume that's better suited for the off-season, but loved the DR video so just checking!!
competitor is JINXED on final 3 hoh comp. What does one have to do to assure they win that? IF ONE GETS BOOTED FOR BEING THE JURY THREAT GIVE THEM SECOND PLACE PRIZE AT LEAST! Only Paul came up shorter of winning the game. Also, boogie was extremely classless in his final words to janelle on their third season
Let's not forget, she did this in an All Star Season. Why she still ranks number 1 then Michael. Lets hope for a Michael return in a real All Stars Season
As much as I appreciate covering this topic, it frustrates me that Janelle is such a problematic figure within BB in addition to being an icon in terms of her entertainment value. Between her spreading various Covid conspiracy theories, to her being a Kyle sympathizer from last season, to her saying feeds should be removed because of “social Justice warriors” that take the feeds content out of context, I am just over her…… She will always have her fans and I get why, but for as much as Michael messed up in how he handled the Kyle situation, I would much rather focus on his comp achievements over Janelle’s!
i just went far back in your channel and saw you used to do Smash Bros Melee videos & Mario 64 stuff. you're just like me in that sense and we also both love big brother lol
