Ratings - Zombies special edition, of course

Ratings are based on zombies and not much else, because that's what we have this week

Noms count: original/renom/twist

Exciting and fast-paced double eviction show, but neither evictee was actually evicted. Both showmances could have broken up, and one was, and then they were reunited shortly after. Remaining hamsters were presumably shocked by the re-entries, but we didn't see it. A fight happened, maybe of house meeting proportions, but we didn't see it. A three-part comp to determine who gets an advantage a week later, but we didn't see it. What we do get is a full week of nothing? We'll see. This would have been a great opportunity for an old school food comp, but no.
Won: Dinner guest HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 2   27 - Applicant - Single Medical receptionist - Brooklyn NY ZOMBIELAND A light hearted take on the genre, humorous with some legit zombie gore and scares. If anyone was going to accidentally kill Bill Murray, it would be her.	Won: $1,000 HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 2/0/0 - HN 1   25 - Recruit - Single Brand strategist - New York, NY ZOMBIE I don't mean to make light of the Irish 'Troubles' the Cranberries song is about, but the refrain 'what's in your head, what's in your head' seems applicable. (Rest in peace, Dolores O'Riordan.)
Won: Netherland Day 11; a pressure cooker HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 2   45 - Applicant - Single Barrister/DJ - Los Angeles, CA SHAUN OF THE DEAD The ultimate comedy zombie movie. She's not a comedian but she still brings us both intentional and unintentional humor when nobody else does. I shudder to think where we'd be without her.	Won: Europe trip; 1 week 5 days piggy suit; 2000 cups of dirt with Izzy; 1 week post-eviction zombie; Zombie advantage HOH 2 - Veto 1 - Noms 3/1/0 - HN 0   34 - Applicant - Separated, 1 daughter Stay-at-home dad - Eastman, GA THE WALKING DEAD A mostly solid series at first, often stereotypical and predictable, with excessive emotional content. Sooner or later most gave up on it, but it went on and on and on anyway. And on.
Won: Dinner guest; Invincibility vote; 48 hrs kayak with Felicia HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 1   53 - Recruit/stuntcast - Married, 3 sons Surgical director Norwalk, CT WORLD WAR Z Big budget action/adventure covering multiple countries with terrifying zombie hordes and an A-lister in the lead. It has a few shared scenes and anecdotes from the book it was based on, but otherwise it's completely different.	Won: Netherland Day 1; Invincibility vote HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/1 - HN 3   21 - Applicant/stuntcast - Single College student Ft Lauderdale, FL ZOMBIELAND DOUBLE TAP A sometimes tedious sequel to the original, this time the zombies are sorted into categories and the nerdy kid finally gets the girl.
Won: 24 18 hours slimings; Dinner guest; 48 hrs kayak with Cirie HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/1 - HN 1   63 - Applicant - Married, 1 son Real estate agent - Kennesaw, GA NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD Not the first but definitely the original of the modern genre, the one that set the bar, and a timeless classic.	Won: $5,000; Netherland Day 10; Week 2 immunity; 1 week chicken suit; Invincibility vote; Day 30 revival HOH 0 - Veto 2 - Noms 2/1/0 - HN 1   25 - Applicant - Single Truck company owner/realtor - Omak, WA 28 DAYS LATER It's a good one. It came out years before The Walking Dead copied its opener of a guy waking up in hospital, unaware a zombie apocalypse is underway. That's not necessarily applicable to Jag but the obvious joke can't be overlooked: come Thursday it'll be 28 days since he was evicted.
Won: Netherland Day 9; 1 week post-eviction zombie HOH 2 - Veto 1 - Noms 1/0/1 - HN 2   25 - Applicant/stuntcast - Single Exterminator - Norwalk, CT SCOOBY DOO ON ZOMBIE ISLAND I've never seen this one and have no interest in seeing it, just like I rarely listen to Jared.	Won: Invincibility vote and power; 1 week 5 days Duhamel-a-maniac HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 2   27 - Recruit - Single Deaflympics gold medalist - Baton Rouge, LA DEAD SET A zombie outbreak based around Big Brother UK. You think oh that's unique, what a great premise, but the novelty is soon set aside and it takes hold as a solid zombie movie in its own right.
Won: Dinner with 3 guests HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 1   30 - Applicant - Newlywed Political consultant - Upper Marlboro, MD Z NATION Like The Walking Dead, this series is about a present-day zombie outbreak but it has more heart (imo), more humor, more imagination, more gore, and unlike TWD, it never takes itself too seriously.	Won: 1 week 5 days piggy suit; 2000 cups of dirt with Cameron HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 2   32 - Applicant - Has a girlfriend Flutist - New York, NY 5th evicted - Day 44 She clocked Cirie and Jared in a minute, and she quickly went from being a Cirie fan to a devoted ally and surrogate daughter. She made no secret of it and that didn't go unnoticed. She was often manic, chaotic, and cracked, and her animated conversations and limitless facial expressions became their own side game. She later calmed down under Cirie's mentorship and they drove the first half of the game, not always to their benefit. She was a never-a-dull-moment hamster and that's always good for fun feeds.
Won: 1 year P+ and home theater HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 1   37 38 - Recruit - Has a girlfriend, 3 kids Sales/TikTokker - Gatlinburg, TN 4th evicted - Day 37 He was a caricature of himself on the episodes but he was more genuine on feeds. His and Cameron's bromance was like some over-countrified afterschool special and when they broke up, the tinkly piano shifted to a broken banjo string twang. He said some inappropriate things, he provided baked goods, and he was a good sport about his birthday roast. He was a victim of the heavily layered and interwoven alliance mess, so this feller had to skedaddle back to hawkin' moonshine in Gatlinburg.	Won: Nothing HOH 1 - Veto 2 - Noms 0/1/0 - HN 1   45 - Applicant - Divorced Geriatric physician/burlesquer - Seattle, WA 3rd evicted - Day 23 He painted a target on himself by winning the first two vetos and the second HOH, and he knew that. He started out fun and lively but he got HOHitis so bad his own alliance orchestrated a blindside plan to put him up and out. His campaign pitches were painful, right? As he gave marathon speeches, right? In his soft breathy voice, right? To anyone he could corner for an hour, right? He was a superb comp host and game show emcee for one of the few group activities they did.
Won: Nothing HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 0   24 - Recruit - Single Bartender - Nashville, TN 2nd evicted - Day 16 Four people were already nominated when she won the first HOH and all she had to do was remove two. She spent most of the first days repeating she wanted an alliance of eight, which she eventually pulled together, with F2, F3, F4 along the way. She had it made but then found out everyone else knew about her eight and she spent the rest of her HOH week in tears. Then she hit the block and campaigned poorly, but at least she went out fighting.	Won: Nothing HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/1 - HN 0   25 - Recruit - Single Molecular biologist - Houston, TX 1st evicted - Day 9 She was on the block when she started to pitch and double-dip, and you can't blame her for that. Being new to BB, that's what she'd seen on the shows, and most everyone else started doing the same thing right away anyway. But Kirsten became an easy scapegoat since she wasn't in their inner power circles. She would have been good feeds: she planned a scorching nominee speech, but then opted to go out classy and didn't use it.
Won: Nothing HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 1   30 - Survivor applicant - Single Illustrator - Coral Springs, FL Ejected Day 8 Between hamsters thinking he was a secret doctor and feedsters thinking he was a secret twin, his week was full of unintentional comedy. He added to that by not knowing the show or that the game had started without him, then he worked hard to join the game in progress, with no success. Then he dropped the n-word, and then he was gone.
