‘Big Brother 16’ live feed spoilers: Zach Rance’s (likely) last night

Unless something crazy happens on Thursday night’s “Big Brother 16,” it feels like a done deal that we are going to say goodbye to the man, the myth, and the legend that is Zach Rance.

How do we tribute the Zach Attack? Mostly, by comparing him to Frank Eudy. Neither were great players socially or strategically, but each became beloved mostly due to their skills within the game and entertainment value. (Personally, we prefer Zach very much to Frank.) The only real difference is that Zach wasn’t a competition beast, and became a target more for just playing up the villain angle and making the attention on him constantly so big. Both went out around a similar time of the game.

Zach’s biggest flaw this season, first of all, was not being a part of Team America. Had he known about it, maybe he could adjust his personality to not be such a scapegoat most of the time. Still, he did at times run his mouth far too much, and say some personal things that got spread around the house about Victoria and others. He was also much too trusting of his own alliance even after they almost got rid of him once before. He’s a very fun player and we want to see him back, but by no means is he Dr. Will, whose personality he often tried to mirror.

There really wasn’t any strategy talk overnight, but largely because there is nothing that Zach can do. Nobody is budging on getting rid of him. He doesn’t seem aware that he could could back into the game again, but he will probably be looking forward to the chance. We just hope that if nothing else, he made it far enough to be a lock for an all-star season.
