America's player was rigged to keep Dick. When Eric won the Veto in that season, he was not allowed to use it to backdoor Dick like he and Jessica planned. Did America vote on that, under the guise of America's Player? No. The producers decided they didn't want to risk Dick going on the block, so they wouldn't let him use it. Dick violated the rules several times, but faced no consequences. He admitted, on camera, in the house, that not only did he receive secret messages in his HoH letter, but also ate when he was on slop.
Jen's punishment for breaking the slop rule was also changed after Dick complained about it. She was originally given an automatic nomination for the following week, but it was changed to getting an extra vote because Dick complained. The producers also threatened Jen to be kicked out of the house if she wanted to press charges against Dick for his actions against her.
All those shows you listed (Survivor, ANTM, Amazing Race, etc.) are legally filed and put on as a game show. While the producers edit storylines, etc., they legally cannot alter the game in any way to favor a certain contestant. Big Brother, on the other hand, is the only reality show that is not listed as a game show. It is created, listed, and operates under a scripted show license. That way the producers can, and often do, alter the game in any way they see fit, at any time, to favor their/America's favorite. They'd done it numerous times, such as the Coup D'etat in Jeff's Season. The power was originally used in All-Stars and was given as a reward for winning a special competition. Instead, they changed it to an America's Vote, when they already knew Jeff was America's Favorite.

Not gonna respond to that first thing since that was just dumb
. And I still see no proof of the producers "rigging" the show. If Big Brother was a "scripted" show, then how come we don't see any writers named in the credits? and they were never going to and in case if you haven't figured out
PEOPLE LOVED AND LOVE TO HATE EVIL DICK! which is why he survived that week he was gone. Not everybody thinks like you about Evil dick bro, and If it was so rigged, then how come Jeff didn't win or Janelle didn't win since i'm pretty sure the producers would have "rigged" it for them too win since they were loved. It's just sad that you think Evil Dick was pretty much a producer of the show (like you keep thinking
.) So quit thinking that because Evil Dick knew how to play the game and he was able to get under people's skin (Also that house took everything so seriously, espcally Amber "I cry at everything" Siyavus)
Oh and something that proves your point wrong
Another sub-genre of reality TV is "reality competition" or so-called "reality game shows," which follow the format of non-tournament elimination contests. Typically, participants are filmed competing to win a prize, often while living together in a confined environment. In many cases, participants are removed until only one person or team remains, who/which is then declared the winner. Usually this is done by eliminating participants one at a time, in balloon debate style, through either disapproval voting or by voting for the most popular choice to win. Voting is done by the viewing audience, the show's own participants, a panel of judges, or some combination of the three.
A well-known example of a reality-competition show is the globally syndicated Big Brother, in which cast members live together in the same house, with participants removed at regular intervals by either the viewing audience or, in the case of the American version, by the participants themselves.
Don't see anything about it being a scripted show or anything. Also like I said, the only thing the producers do is get some drama going because nobody wants a boring season (even though BB12 was BORING as hell.) Hell Real World does that all the time (sometimes backfires) and in the cases of Justin, Scott, and Chima. They were just crazy as hell and had to be evicted. Even though I'm pretty sure you think they wanted them kick out so they told em to act like morons. And that was when Jeff was popular (before only the insane people still like him now.) and he was the only deserving one to have anyways, Natalie didn't deserve it, Jessie didn't deserve it, Kevin didn't deserve it.) and also if all you do is complain that it's rigged and that, why the hell are you still watching it? Doesn't make much sense.
Bye for good!
That explains why so many of the people that cast this season have ties past BB contestants and are superfans.
