Regardless, if a big move happens in theBig Brotherhouse, history is made and will be remembered forever.
Over the course of 26 seasons,Big Brotherhas given viewers exceptional television.
From power plays to the ridiculously stupid, the Houseguests have delivered on the promise to expect the unexpected.
He was excitable and thought he was onto something.
To win big, you have to play big.
So Lawon offered himself as tribute.
Not only did he volunteer himself to be nominated, he nominated himself to be voted out.
He convinced himself that he would be returning straight to the game.
Lawon’s move has been considered one of the worst moves in the show’s history.

Like a lot of money.
But it’s also about the friends you make along the way, right?
Those friends may not exist after you watch the season.

DuringBig Brother 19, the cast included the return ofPaul AbrahamianfromBig Brother 18.
He was a formidable competitor, ending up as the runner-up.
When he returned,he brought his social prowess and essentially schooled the competition.

He saw how the game was going, and he wanted to ensure his dominance.
He was going to allowChristmas AbbottandJosh Martinezto take the hit.
The lady with one good leg on crutches won the challenge.

Master manipulation at its finest.
It helped secure Paul’s rise to the end.
The plan was to backdoorFrankie Grandeout of the house.

So to make this happen,Nicole Franzelnominated FrankiealongsideCaleb Reynolds, who would throw the challenge.
In most of the Battle of the Blocks, it required both players to complete it.
In the NFL-themed BoB, the players had to maneuver a ball through a giant maze.

It was a challenge very similar to what has been seen onSurvivorbut supersized.
Frankie knew he was the target and pleaded with Caleb to help him win.
Sadly, it fell on deaf ears.

And won.It was a game-changing move that got Frankie to the top five.
The dominating alliance in the game was called Level Six.
America’s sweethearts duringBig Brother 11wereJeff Schroeder and Jordan Lloyd.

When it was revealed that America could give them power, they did.
Jeff received the Coup d’etat, where he had two weeks to utilize it.
He used it in week two and all hell broke loose.

Having an alliance that dominates from start to finish takes true talent.
Such was the case duringBig Brother 23.
They had full safety in numbers and no one in the game clued into their alliance.
He has been considered as one of the greatest strategic players to ever play the game.
It was only week 3 of the game and Will was already up to his antics.
He was up againstChicken George Boswell, who was the Power of Veto holder.
He essentially told them all that he hated them all collectively.
He then asked to be removed from the game, or he would throw every challenge.
The concept was first conceived duringBig Brother 5.
Here’s how it broke down.Jase Wireywas the intended target of the week.
The Head of Household, Nakomis, nominated Marvin andDiane Henry.
This ensured that she, Marvin, and Diane would be playing in the Power of Veto competition.
Having beenvictorious duringBig Brother 10, Dan Gheesling returned to the game duringBig Brother 14as a coach.
When Frank’s ally,Jenn Arroyo, won the Power of Veto, Dan seemed to be toast.
Of course, the latter was not true, but Danielle did not know that.
