Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Big Brother 19 Game and Show Rankings Week 1

Tom's Take

What a week in the BB19 house. Cody made a move that probably sounded smart on paper, but he executed it so poorly that he turned the entire house against him.




1. Jessica

Jessica is the villainess of the season. Involved in a hated showmance. Jealous AF,  and willing to get into fights. Jessica is our hope for some real drama this season. At least in the prejury phase. She's too volatile to make it very far, but we'll see.

Preseason Prediction: 5th boot
1st Week Prediction: 5th Boot



2. Kevin

Kevin is everything. He's funny, with lots of great stories. He doesn't have an amazing grasp of the game, but he's making some moves. He's apparently signed up to be Paul's secret sidekick, which you can tell grates on Kevin's ego, but is probably a good strategic move.

Preseason Prediction: 6th Place
After Week One Prediction: 3rd Place

"Cody is going to be the villain this season, and he's going to be a boring and bland one, and fuck it he's going to make it far, and at least one girl will be ruined by his "charm."

I was wrong about Cody making it far, and Cody's gameplay was entertaining, but otherwise I stand by my preseason impression.

Preseason Prediction: 7th Place
1st Week Prediction: 3rd Boot






5. Elena

I was wrong on Elena. She's a bit of a Paul sycophant, but she's pretty funny. Her showmance with Mark is cute, and she seems to have an edge to her. I see some potential in Elena, if she can past her trust for Paul.


Preseason Prediction: 2nd Boot
1st Week: 6th Place


6. Jason

Jason is a strong player than I thought, but he's on the anti-Paul side, which is the side that's going to get fucked this season, so I don't see him being able to make it very far.

Preseason Prediction: 1st Boot
1st Week Prediction: 4th Boot


7. Christmas

Christmas breaking her foot may have actually helped her game. Why get rid of her at this point? In addition, I was impressed this week with Christmas' social game. She is a major Paul sycophant, which is annoying to me, but will probably lead her far into this game. And if she heals up in time for the final comps, she could pull this thing out.


Preseason Prediction: 3rd Boot
1st Week Prediction: Winner



8. Matt

Matt is incredibly boring, and also going to make it very very far.

Preseason Prediction: 5th Place

9. Josh

Josh is incredibly annoying.

10. Dominique "The Dominator"

Dominique is going to be the most overrated hg this season. I already see people way overhyping her. She's okay, but there are serious red flags. The Paul Sycophancy, as well as saying God tells her to do things. Prepare for her to be a massive flop people. But she's doing fine so far.

Preseason Prediction: 11th Place
1st Week Prediction: 10th Place


11. Ramses

Everybody Hates Ramses really amuses me, but don't feel bad for him. I still predict he's going to manage to sneak by long enough to go on his traditional superfan run near the end.

Preseason Prediction: 4th Place
1st Week Prediction: 4th Place


12. Mark

Mark is interesting to me, but ultimately I think he's going down the wrong road with Paul. I think it'll catch up to him sooner than you'd think.

Preseason Prediction: Winner
1st Week Prediction: 11th Place

15. Raven

Raven is actually a bit of a spark plug. She's giving me Krista BB2 vibes, and I hope there's some actual game to her, and not just paul sycophancy.

Preseason Prediction: 9th Place
1st Week Prediction: 7th Place


16. Alex

Alex is not a good big brother player. Don't let the fact that she's going after showmances (according to the show) fool you.


Preseason Prediction: 8th Place

17. Paul

I really dislike Paul. I gave him a ton of props for his BB18 game, but he deserved to lose, and he's come back into the house being even more of an arrogant ass. The entire season seems dedicated to handing him the win. Which is why the biggest thing to look forward about this season is when his ego inevitably costs him the win.


1st Week Prediction: 2nd Place
