‘Big Brother 15’ live feed spoilers: It’s so easy to root for Howard and Helen
To us, Howard and Helen currently are the “Making the Difference” segment of the CBS show. After spending so much time the last few days talking about some of the negative things going on in the house (the racist comments, the sexism, and the general awfulness that some people have exhibited), these two actually seem to be genuinely good people, and the kind that you would want to hang out with outside of the game. They’re smart, savvy, and also realize that their lives will sink if they make fools of themselves outside of the house.
While they were not the first two necessarily to wake up today (as Spencer was also up early talking about how Amanda was hurting McCrae’s game), Howard and Helen eventually settled into a conversation that was all about mutual respect and friendship. He taught her about college football, explained why he follows certain sports teams, and she explained why she is happy that she is in this house now over being in there a decade earlier, when she would have went far crazier.
At the end of the day, what’s important about a chat like this, innocent as it may be, is that these are two people that we would have a hard time imagining doing anything awful to each other. There’s respect there, and we don’t think that these two feel the same way about some of the younger people in the game. We knew going in that we’d like both of them, and for now, they are each playing the sort of game that they need to in order to survive: Under-the-radar, nice to everyone, and not overly strategic.
