'Big Brother 18' Cast: Who Should Return In Potential Jury Battle Back? [POLL, VIDEO]
There is much speculation among the Big Brother fanbase that this week could feature another Battle Back competition.
Head of Household: Victor Arroyo
Nominations: Corey Brooks and Paulie Calafiore
Other houseguests: James Huling, Michelle Meyer, Natalie Negrotti, Nicole Franzel and Paul Abrahamian
Jury members: Da'Vonne Rogers, Zakiyah Everette and Bridgette Dunning
Ever since Big Brother executive producer Allison Grodner teased that we might not have seen the last of Da'Vonne, there has been some talk of a possible returning juror. Now, there is a special Friday episode of Big Brother 18 scheduled to air on CBS this week, though the network has kept details about the episode under wraps.
Big Brother fans are putting the pieces together and theorizing that there might be a jury Battle Back tournament scheduled for Friday. For one, the last special Friday episode featured the pre-jury Battle Back. Then there's the fact that if nominees Corey or Paulie (with Paulie being the obvious boot) don't have the Round Trip ticket, the whole twist is a bit of a bust, which could be disappointing for fans.
Of course, there's always the possibility that Friday is simple a recap episode or some special twist introduction that the fanbase hasn't thought about. However, this hasn't stopped fans from figuring out the best juror to come back into the house.
Da'Vonne has been out of the house longest and has the least amount of knowledge regarding the current house dynamic. She did have a sense that Paulie was running the house, but it's unclear what she would do in the current situation, with James, Michelle, Natalie, Paul and Victor against Corey and Nicole. However, she is most likely to stir up drama, which could make for an exciting finish.
Zakiyah would almost definitely cause the least amount of waves with her return, considering the way she played the game when she was in the house. She wouldn't have Paulie with her, which may be a good thing for her game, but considering her other allegiances, she would probably just join up with Corey and Nicole even though they're in the minority.
Bridgette would probably fit in most with the current dynamic in the house. She exited after the infamous vote flip, which she was a part of, and would easily slide back in with James, Michelle, Natalie, Paul and Victor. She would likely be a bigger number for the James, Michelle and Natalie side rather than the Paul and Victor side.
Then there's Paulie. If he were to return, it would probably be a revolving door situation assuming he can't win the HOH or Veto competitions. The same situation would probably go down if all these plans change and Corey was evicted.
Big Brother 18 airs another new episode Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.
