Top 10 Most Overrated Big Brother U.S. Players
As we gear up for yet another season of Big Brother U.S., it's time to take a step back and reflect on the show's history. We've seen a pantheon of houseguests, each one a unique character with their own tactics, alliances, and memorable moments. But there's an interesting debate brewing within the fan community, one that's as dynamic and intriguing as the show itself: who are the most overrated players in the history of U.S. Big Brother?Now, let's be clear about what we mean by "overrated." These are the players who, for one reason or another, seem to get more credit than they might deserve. Maybe they've hogged the limelight a bit too much, or their gameplay has been lauded despite being questionable. Perhaps they've been brought back for multiple seasons, creating a sort of cult of personality around them. Or maybe, just maybe, it's a combination of all these factors and more.
Regardless, these are the houseguests who, in the eyes of many fans, don't quite live up to their hype. This isn't about disliking them or discrediting their contributions to the show, but rather about a critical reassessment of their status in the Big Brother pantheon. It's about questioning the narratives that have been built around them and examining whether they truly deserve their lofty reputations.
Other than his creation of the Sovereign Six alliance, what has worked for him? Sure, Janelle, James, and Howie were all great, but Kaysar seems to stick out as extremely overrated. He's not as great as people say he is, and he quickly gets evicted both times - even after coming back, boom, goodbye.
I love Kaysar, but he really didn't have a chance to win. Of course, Jennifer snarked him with that infamous lie, but he was a fool to believe it in the first place.
I wish him well and wish that he had gone further, but the fact is - he didn't.
Ugh... I, for the life of me, don't understand why. Why is he getting so much attention just for being a sister to a famous pop singer whom I also do not like? Just because you're someone from YouTube doesn't mean Oh, that just makes me superior to anyone.
WAY more sizzle than steak. Probably the greatest fake glam poser in the history of the game.
The one that listens to Rachel, also known as Kaysar 2.0. You want to know why? He's similar to Kaysar except he's better by far. In Season 12, he did well - not much of a problem - but in Season 13, after getting evicted once, he comes back, beats Lawon easily, and is out the door again.
He. Is. Nothing. Without. Rachel. (And she is nothing, so that still makes him nothing.)
She makes more appearances on Big Brother than anyone else combined, and that seems to annoy me. She's a great player at competitions - no denying that at all - but my goodness, is she so annoying when it comes to putting her in the spotlight constantly. It's either Woo hoo, tequila victory! or...
The day she made her first appearance was the day that BB started declining into sad oblivion.
From a gameplay perspective, Jeff was nothing special. You could say he got lucky often, and a lot of that luck came with a heavy hand from the Big Brother production team. The fact that they treat him as if he's some sort of Big Brother god is irritating. It's not fun to see him host the aftershows or to have any involvement in a game where he was subpar on a good day.
I can understand why we like him so much. He's a funny guy and he does stuff for CBS now - more power to him. But I can't get over the fact that in Big Brother 11, backdooring Russell was a terrible move. The very next week, it bit him in the ass, and he was the next one out. Sure, he played much better in Season 13, only to lose by a clown shoe, lol.
Mr. Pectacular seems to appear more often than many of the others. He's like a curse in that house - every time he does well enough to the point where he would start to notice what would happen, whether it's America's vote or the infamous Coup d'Etat, it just didn't matter. He was clearly a threat, and boom, here I go to TNA.
If his game was 1/10 as strong as his ego, he would have won the game three times. The fact is, he's nothing more than an overgrown man-child with a "little man" mentality, in both height and girth, and will never be anything more than that.
A beast competitor, great in Season 8, but for me, her strategy of playing too fast and too hard in Season 13 is ultimately the sole reason, just as Evel Dick said, where I'm like, What are you doing?
One of the worst representations of "The Friendship," in and of itself the worst alliance ever to appear in Big Brother. Maggie wasn't too bad, but the rest of them were absolute trivialities. Ivette wouldn't have gotten past 10th place in a regular season.
Besides being a part of the most unlikable alliance in history, The Friendship, she was by far the worst in terms of winnings. She was lucky to even make it to the final two, which was generous, to say the least.
Her love for Eric, aka Cappy, was annoying. She hated Janelle because I think secretly she wanted to be her, bang her, or both. She was just salty.
The fact that Mike Boogie is regarded as one of the best players ever is extremely annoying. This man has proven that he can't play this game unless he hides in Will's shadow and tries to ride the waves that Dr. Will creates. Will basically won Season 7 for him. Mike failed in Season 2 (although the game was different then due to the lack of a point of view). In Season 14, he proved that he could not manipulate people nearly as well as Dr. Will and couldn't beat out the other greatest player, Dan Gheesling. He's definitely not one of the best.
Her strategy is to win every competition. No social or strategic game.
The fact that she just kept getting MVP that season was totally ridiculous. Not as good as her sister, I'll say that much.
Nice guy for the most part, but he coasted. He was carried by Paul the whole summer and made to feel safe. His fans drool over him because they have a grandpa complex, so they never expected him to win anything.
Everyone says how much potential he had, but he played horribly and made deals with everyone. He didn't have any potential.
Everyone loves him for his competition wins, but his social game was not good. He let the more dominant players make the moves for him in the game and never once thought to play for himself until he used what Kyle said in Week 3 as a tactic to better his chances in the game. He had multiple opportunities to make a big move but didn't, which cost him, as he went home in the final 6 because of Monte, who was the very person people had told him to target.
