James won because of the friction and game plan of the other members getting in the way of each other. And they didn't vote for the most popular, they voted for the guy they didn't think was going to win!!!
Yo James was the worst person to have in your alliance. It’s like he went into the Winners Circle and said, “Welp, as long as I’m safe.” No fight at all for his people lol
@@dannyt7269 he only cared about him and Kai being safe. He definitely pissed me off because he gave in so easily twice after saying "we're gonna get rid of who I want I guarantee you that." He didn't fight at all. I knew Jacki was gone when it was nick and james as the influencers. It worked out for James in the end because Nick's alliance voted strategically to try to win by voting nick at the bottom but voting james ahead of kai
@@phillyant58 I thought he blew an easy win tbh. I couldn't believe he really did all of that talk just to fold in a heartbeat. I figured after folding the first time he'd force the issue and keep the person who was guaranteed to pick him in Jacki. Instead he just folded again😂
@@kylecornett5222 exactly. First time I said ok he really didn't have anything with Daniel but to fold on Jacki was pathetic. I knew he would tho as soon as he said "this is harder than I expected." Those were folding words right there 🤣🤣
I think this translates how it is in real life, the more you are famous the more people get jealous and downplay you. Kia and nick had the best gameplay.
Kai was the best player that season Nick was middling until he got that fake profile and created an alliance of people to hate on Kai for litterally no reason other than she's likeable. Nick was only a figure head to get them to the finale cause as soon as he wasn't in the top they didn't vote out Kai and could've they voted someone else they needed her in the Kai so the ideal of her would keep Nick focused and they could ride him to the finale
I still don't think what Kai did that makes her a 'good player'. I find her overhyped and she wasn't very entertaining but it is what it is, if people liked her good on them.
@@randreasson8680 you say over hyped and I'd agree with you a bit on that but she was over hyped cause her play style was best suited to win it all. Al I'd say sufficiently hyped..... And what made her a good player is she was herself and had a solid pool of people around her that clicked with that. And even the ones that didn't didn't really have a bad thing to say about her behavior other than those jealous words, and even the one who said things out of jealously said they can't really say why they did it.
Loved this season, but poor Michelle lol! Imagine being yourself then getting rated in last place, and the next day you're cloned. Then having them like the clone over you. And finally to add flames to the fire the "better version of yourself" got eliminated the very next day.
I don’t think I can keep watching after seeing the real Michelle get eliminated. Watching people carry on so confidently wrong just irks me too much. And the fact that they can’t find out the truth until the end makes it worse.
I know she was older and a lot of younger ppl also say how hard it is to message and jump in but to me she seemed like she didn’t try hard enough to be like hold up this me fk the other person trying to be me
James betrayed his alience and folded multiple times. Ashley and Isabella’s only strategy was to cling to nick. Nick had an unfair advantage due to Vince. Kai was the only player who truly deserved to win
@@disconnected7340 Yeah, it’s not Nick’s fault. People should blame Calvin, because he gave Nick the advantage and still saw Kai, but for some reason people keep forgetting he was on the show😭
Daniel was my whole heart this season. I was devastated when he was blocked. I also really liked Jacki & wish she hadn’t come in so late. I favored their side of the alliances more.
Yes, Daniel was my favourite and James my least favourite. I wasn't that fond of Kai either. I was sad when Calvin left. I found that he and Daniel were probably the most genuine people there. I loves 'Ashley' too and I wish she won instead of James.
I know it's how the game works, but it still frustrating when the most liked players and the ones who had a great game the entire season are ranked so low in the final ranking and the middle players or newest players are ranked so high since they aren't such a threat to others. That's the game, so congrats to James, but I still wanted Kai or Nick to win for playing such an amazing game since day 1.
This is the first season where the finalist weren't the most charismatic and popular people. In the previous two seasons people who got the furthest were the ones who were the most liked by everyone, while in this season it was almost the opposite way and people like Ruksana and Daniel, who probably would have ended up in the finale if the game was played the same way as in the previous seasons, basically got eleminated for being too neutral and likable. The only people who deserved to be in the finale were Kai and Nick and maybe Ashley, James did so many stupid decisions that I can't comprehend how he managed to get to the end and Isabella just kinda ended up there by default
Kai and Nick practically stole the show. They were the only people I actually looked forward to watching--they were both so entertaining and charismatic. I also understand how Ashley got into the finale--but seriously, Isabella? She only got here because of Nick, in all honesty. Does Nick's back hurt from carrying his alliance and the whole show? 😭
If Ruksana said I'm confused and I dont know one more time. I was just like ladyyyyyyy.....omg. Do u know how to play. Same with Daniel. They both were so stayyyyyyyy. Jeeez
@@lifeisthedash god Ruksana and Daniel were so boring they hurt me. I mean Daniel had a couple of funny comments but other than that it was nothing, they were the most driest people who didn’t try anything-I was so glad they left. I liked James better than them LOL
I think it made so much sense that James won. I knew it was either gonna be him or Ashley/Matt because nobody wants to vote the strongest players (Kai & Nick) at the top for the Finale, it was always gonna be one of the players in the middle ;)
I’ve watched all the UK seasons too (which I believe they aren’t continuing due to safety reasons for the players) & some times the players vote with their heart, some times they vote strategically. Voting strategically is usually what gets the most popular players voted last, of course.
@@motattoo008 Kai had chance but with ruskana Daniel and Calvin was block I know she wasn't going to win she would also have a chance with she block nick when she was a influence Nick fuck his game by keeping his alliance
@@Tessachannel28 well he definitely did something wrong seeing as he got 5th . When ur a strong player that's what is going 5o happen anyways since they are voting who they can beat and not the best player . Kai should of got way better then 4th as well
@@disconnected7340 kai and nick was most deserving of the win but James did play a good game. Kai still making it to the finale with the huge target she had shows how great of a player she was.
Unfortunately I think James is the least deserving winner we've had so far in The Circle. Nick played the game masterfully and was easily able to manipulate James into make very stupid decisions. His winning was basically a fluke because people ranked him higher because they thought he had no chance of winning. It'd be one thing if he purposely got rid of Daniel and Jacki because he thought people would rank him higher if he had less allies, but he was completely fooled by Nick. I was hoping for Nick or Kai to pull out the win, but if not them, Ashley or Isabella. James was the only person I was actively rooting against.... yet here we are haha
I have to say that I was SO pissed when Michelle got blocked. I'm a true southern girl and Michelle I loved from the beginning. I just couldn't believe it.
I swear me too!! I was like she’s such a real ass lady! Also, she has that momma vibe! I thought it was awful then cloning her! Like she didn’t even have chance! Why should someone have to explain there there real self
Bro this is so wild to me. I know Sophia in person but I've only ever heard in passing that she did a TV show or something and I'm just now actually looking it up. Sophia is not shady in the slightest, I'll have to watch the show to see what she did though 😆
I didn't like a single person in the band. They questioned Kai's sincerity when she only aligned with people who were being themselves. I thought James made poor decisions but he somehow ended up winning so kudos to him. If he had kept more people from his alliance, then it would have been possible Kai was ranked higher over him in the final ratings. I was rooting for Kai, but I'm happy for James.
I actually liked Nick tbh. He wasnt mean about Kai he just saw her as a threat which she was and still recognized how nice of a person she was. Sophia took it a bit far at times by just constantly digging at Kai any chance she got. Ashley I didnt like either because of how quickly she switched sides. Jackson was boring and weird like when she said "i dont need you" about Calvin after getting a big ego just because she now had big Nicks attention lol
I think they have to change how the winner is chosen on this show... I understand the ratings but it ends with us being so unsatisfied because it's not the person who played the best game or the most liked player, it doesn't hold the same weight or integrity
This season was so much fun, so much strategy and betrayal compared to other previous seasons, good catfishes, mat/ashley is so carismatic, love him. The minigames were kinda boring, the only one that i liked was the cake decoration for bestfriend.
Michelle was like no ma'am i dont wanna be associated with this show anymore. poor thing. imagine being yourself and being catfished and people believe the catfish over you. shooook.
@@youmadornahhh I completely agree on Kai being robbed as well . I feel Nick did the best seeing how he had deals on both sides and got threw with out breaking any of them . But if not him then Kai should have won it . It's just way it's setup the least popular wins which also means the least deserving wins .
This season is so disappointing. I’m glad James won over Ashley or Sophia. Kai was definitely robbed. They didn’t rate fairly because if they did Kai or even nick would’ve won.
Matthew was my favorite, he did excellent as Ashley, but Kai and Nick were the best players, to have made it to the end through strategy they really should have won. James did nothing to win, he was actually really weak, not a strong player, both times he gave in to Nick's reasoning, and gave up his own people, he only won because the other's were afraid of Kai and Nick. Very disappointed, hoped it would have been Matthew out of the two.
I completely agree but also Nick and James had said om an Instagram live that both chats they ended up talking for up to 6 hours. Nick had said that it went on until 5am. This made me think he didn't deserve it less and it also made me think Nick deserved to win even more.
@@marioknox4302 yeah but at the end of the day that's he won. The strongest players never win in these types of games, it's always the right hand man that creeps up and takes the victory.
People are knocking James’ game play but I thought he started strategic conversations with people and made connections quickly considering he was in so late
Absolutely, he did play a smart game and while I don’t love that he betrayed Daniel and Jacki, he did what he had to do to win. Tbh I think he deserved it (emotionally) more than Nick.
Isabella is giving MASSIVE bully vibes. Typical, you see a new pretty girl in school and you start hating her and having this fixation on her. Then you turn everyone against her and get frustrated with people pay her compliment (call her queen). She also gave massive fake vibes during the reunion episode, screaming and trying to excuse her catfish reasons. Do not like her one bit
Oh man thank goodness it wasnt me. She really gave off this shady vibe towards the end. And she wouldnt shut up at the reunion. You can tell she was nervous to let Nick talk.
right!? what also rubbed me off in the wrong way was how she kept talking and talking in the finale "omg sorry i didn't break your heart, right, nick? you're a smart guy" and how she kept going on and on about how it worked out and didn't read the room. I also didn't really like how she completely ignored Jackson (aka Rachel) in the meetings. I mean like I understand you won't always meet the people you aren't close to--but "Jackson" was literally in your alliance and they were your closest ally next to Nick before Jackson left. I really didn't appreciate how she just completely ignored Rachel and then moved on to the next person in line. maybe im just being too sensitive though
In the history of the circle USA and the UK, the most popular player never won especially if their alliance makes it with them. It tends to be the most popular person of the smaller alliance but because Kai was always big of a threat the second most of the smaller alliance won. I'm glad James won they took out the king they tried it on the queen but in the end, the jester won.
Dont get me wrong I love Daniel but he was also carried, also he should had blocked ashley instead of jackson when he had the chance, maybe would had made it further if he did
I am mad with my fullest heart that James won, it should’ve been Kai but I knew the second James blocked Daniel and then freaking Jackie (the only 2 other people left that would vote her high) that she wasn’t gonna win. He is the worst player ever, so from them on I was ok with Nick or Ashley winning Edit: With that being said they need to change how the winner is selected because people are purposely not voting for certain people to win. the point of the game is to win based on popularity so technically kai or Nick should have won because they were the most popular but the people voted , voted backwards because they didn’t want those specific people winning so I think they need to do the rankings different , perhaps like the show called four weddings where you have to rank the players from first to last in different categories. For instance for the circle the diff categories could be “who was the most strategic” , “who is you’re favorite/closet connection” , “who deserves to win” , etc. the players rank the other players in these diff categories first to last, each place scores diff points and then the circle would take all those scores to find out who is 1st 2nd etc. to figure who’s the best/winner Because technically in this game at least for this season you DONT want to be the most popular cuz then people will vote you last!! But I thought that was the POINT of the damn game
Omg just finished this season and ur absolutely right! I was so shocked Ashley basically said she’d vote Nick low bc it would increase her chance of winning. But since other ppl ranked her low the plan only worked in favor of James. I’m sure watching back nick realized his alliance wasn’t much of a benefit to him in the end. I didn’t like him until the end lol but shocked he got ranked 5th in the finale 😮
kai needs to win i think, they had a lot of chance to block her but they just so scared to block her and they did not even see her. i love the energy that queen had, also she lost calvin,ruksana and daniel :(
Daniel was absolutely right that James had the worst game play. If we’re going to talk about best players, Kai and Nick were it (but I am biased towards Kai more because she seems like she’s the nicest person ever). James was weak as hell when it came to being an influencer , letting Nick walk all over him 🙄 the only reason he won was because Kai voted for him because she was loyal to her alliance and because everyone in “The Band” voted strategically by placing each other at the bottom. It was sheer dumb luck, but I guess it’s good it worked out in James’ favor. I do really think that if he fought to keep Daniel and Nicki, he probably still would’ve won or at least would’ve been rated pretty high. At least that way, this season would’ve had a more satisfying ending 🤷🏽♀️
James actually had the best gameplan. If Daniel and jacki were still in the game he would have not won because his popularity would be more known meaning those who would vote strategically would know that they have to vote him low in order to win. Kai would have probably voted him high, daniel would have voted more strategically, Jacki we dont know, Nick would have voted him extremely low and same with Ashley and Isabelle. The way James played the game meant that all the other players apart from Nick would underestimate him and vote him higher to prevent Nick from winning.
Am I the only one who thinks that Isabella's hatred and obsession towards Kai has something to do with racism? she attacked kai from the start for no reason.
She gave me total jealousy and maybe prejudice, there were moments where I feel she was more taken with Kai than Nick. Nick genuinely looked excited to see Kai and he end complimented her, he made her out to be a mastermind. But Isabella was notably, in her words “Obsessed with Kai”, which is a little strange.
Some of you see racism everywhere, it is actually toxic and show how prejudiced you are; it says more about you and those who support your statement than of Sophia. I didn't really care for Sophia just as I didn't care for Kai either but some.of you are so full of resentment that is actually sad to see. You have no evidence whatsoever to claim that. Kai was manipulative and had secret alliances, she herself created a bubble and Sophia saw that, hence, since she wanted to win she knew she had to block Kai.
Daniel should have blocked Ashley/Matthew instead of Jackson/Rachel when he had a chance to become Influencer, so that way his wolf pack alliance with Nick is still intact and James wouldn't gone rouge talking about his trans brother. If I was a circle influencer, I would block a player who hasn't been at the bottom 4 times in a row and Ashley fit that descripton.
I’m sorry this way the best season ! They put did themselves with all the plot twist omgggg kept me entertained the whole time !!!! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
idk why Kai dumb ass keep voting for him as number 1 like yea he gonna bring u to the finale but he doesn't care about u winning at all. Had she not voted him number 1 all the time someone else more dependable in her alliance would've voted out the right people
Please do a season where every player is a player from one of the previous seasons and they all are catfishing, it would be fun to see them trying to suss out catfish not knowing that they know a lot of the players already!!!😀
Just watched all 3 seasons back to back. Season 2 was my favourite in terms of casting and the drama but I liked the games in Season 3 more. Wasn't really feeling James as the winner but clearly whatever he did worked. Most iconic part was seeing Nick's face when he recognised his whole alliance was fake😂
Not fake but cat fishes I hate when peapol think being a cat Fish on the show is being fakr or cheating everybody had that option and it gives you an advantage
"Isabella" was my least favorite, I can't stand her.She did not show his personality, The only thing I know about her is that she is gay, repeated it thousands of times.I only sensed his insane obsession with kai.
Lol 🤣🤣🤣 I appreciate Daniel bluntness with him throwing shade cause i felt everything he said. “The band” is so boring and I couldn’t stand them except Matt he’s okay he should of came in as himself cause he seem like an actually cool person I hate how he calls Nick, daddy Nick 🙎🏽♀️ it’s cringy
Yea I really dont get how people say this is better than season 1 and 2. Circle Brazil was better than this too. It was basically the NICK show. Every week Nick's the influencer...surpriseeee🙄 And I'll still never get over how u blocked calvin cuz hes protecting kai. But then yall said she was a catfish🤔? But u all barely spoke to her🙄. Then the reason she was a catfish was she spoke to well....WHATTTTT??? Just bullshitttt👎👎👎
Just finished the season and honestly I was rooting for Ashley/Matthew so much. I really thought it was going to be him that won in the end because he was so well liked by everyone. I don’t think there was a single person in the finale that would have made me upset to see win.
Nick is biased against people. U choose people who were similar to you or who u wanted to bed. The crazy thing is u were in a guys crew AND U CAME UP WITH THE IDEA TO BLOCK CALVIN 🤔🤔🤔 And used Kai as the reason 🙄 And daniels gay so u immediately tossed him away for Jackson. 😒 Just bias all the wayyyy. Same with how he came across to James. Cudnt even be agreeable in the Influencer chats. And in the end your own crewwwww u chose and built up rated u LOWWWW🙃 Pulled the rug, right from under your feet👀
Wait what? He was best friends with Calvin-the one who proposed him to leave was Ashley. Nick wanted Kai to leave, not Calvin. He wanted to flirt with Kai too, but it was a common fact that she and Calvin had a thing so he stayed away from her. Daniel drifted away to Ruksana’s group so they didn’t talk much, since Nick was against Kais alliance since she was a threat. He wasn’t agreeable because he didn’t want to toss his alliance in the gutter unlike James. I’m not sure what you’re talking about
Let me just say this right now Chris I remember you did a video for my wife during the pandemic using cameo and you had said Evelyn Orellana and Joel Alexander the new nachos OMG you had me laughing
the show needs a better way to pick a winner. they dont really vote on who they think should win they vote based on what they think other people are voting and what will give them the best chance
Exactly! So many people in the comments are eating it up, but none of it is funny or entertaining for me. They focus so much on “real” as if deception and strategy isn’t part of the game
@@Hvdess let’s be honest: he’s just mad that he’s not even close to being the strategist he thought he was gonna be. his reaction when Nick blocked Ruksana was something else.
Y’all mad he speaking the truth. He isn’t a sore loser. He just spoke facts. James had terrible game play but he somehow won in the end so it’s whatever it’s
@@vicky4912 oh, believe me, I don’t think James should’ve won… but Daniel is still annoying! He played a terrible game and got so little screen time so now he’s just trying to make up for it
@@vicky4912 how come its a terrible player?? so he trade daniel with nick and made a pack that he and kai will be saved. Which they did. I think the terrible player was jacky. I mean he shouldnt trust him. And jet she did and got eliminated. Remember kai and daniel were planned that james talk to jacky and james already was doing it. He was a step ahead. Eliminating daniel got empaty with nick, ashley and isabella. Thats why he got influencer and he knew he need kai so he wont be a target point. I mean he got influencer twice, because nobody see him as treat. He play well.
They're so scared that Nick and Kai would win, the catfishes who were riding on Nick's tail got to the finale. And James who wasn't able to save his allies, won. Still congratulations!🎉
yes! i think that would be good. if the blocked players got to vote, james would’ve lost. cause he betrayed so many people in his alliances lol. also the people who would be voting would’ve had no chance of winning, so it would’ve been less strategic
Was surprised, but loved James winning. The final ranking will always be a gamble because no one knows how everyone's strategy will play out against each other. James said he sacrificed two alliance members so he wouldn't look like a threat, and it worked. (If they revealed the final influencers, it probably would have impacted his standing.) Even if James managed to get to the finals with Kai, Jacki, Daniel and the last band member, there was no guarantee that Daniel and Jacki would not try to rank strategically to hopefully position themselves for a win, especially Daniel who was there from the beginning.
If James didn't show up when he did and become influencer at first chance, Kai would have NEVER made it to the finals. The band was still gunning for her as proven that every band member placed her at the very bottom in the final ranking. If James hadn't have Nick agree that he and Kai would be safe, she definitely would've been a goner. That did a lot for her, but doesn't mean James wasn't looking out for himself. He was also there to win.
Nick basically had a fake popularity. His ego was so big that he easily bought into the band fawning over him. Isabelle and Ashley never would've been in the band if they came into the game as themselves and used their insecurities and lust respectively to benefit from Nick.
I keep reminding myself that this is not Survivor. There must have been so much that has been happening behind the scenes that didn't make the cut for them to decide those votes and eventually that final ranking, coz I was a bit baffled with the results tbh. I was expecting Matthew to win.
I narrowed it down to: if you’re in the majority alliance in the end you’re almost guaranteed not to win because everyone expects you to rank high so they rank you low instead. Going in the finale, it was 3v2, Nick/Ashley/Isabella vs James/Kai. Kai wasn’t going to win because everyone had her as the dominant player along with Nick. So that left James go by unnoticed. I don’t think he had many 1st places but his average was certainly better than the other players. Something similar happened in the Brazil season. The winner started out strong but by the end people were almost counting her out, so they all ranked her high because they didn’t think she could win.
James is by far the worst circle player ever and Sophia gives off some major racists vibes. I'm sure someone in the studio told her who Lil Yachty was. Netflix thinks we're stupid, do they really think that we are supposed to believe that she has actually heard of lil Yachty???
Uhhh wasn’t Calvin best friends with nick? Isn’t it sad to watch a tv show and all you see is the color of people’s skin? Should Nick give Ashley and Isabelle a paintbrush so they can paint themselves the shade you want them to be?
I don’t agree, I don’t think nick is like that as a black person. Plus he like Calvin and had nothing against James. Don’t think he hated Kai either, I think he was just playing the game.
Nah you're not the only one. Nick deserved it the most. So did Kai, but I feel like Nick deserved it more. His gameplay was constant, while I feel like Kai's game declined after her allies left. It sucks how people hate him for being "too strategic and manipulative" (which is an idiotic excuse--of COURSE you have to be strategic and manipulative to win. And I really don't see him flirting with anyone else besides Isabella like people were saying). He was the most loyal as well--he kept his word constantly and saved his alliance and Kai like three times. He just got backstabbed by The Band, which sucks. I wish he joined Kai's alliance instead.
nick winning would have been great because of the good game he played but he kinda ruined it for himself by having a band full of strategic players and being the "alpha" lol he made himself the first target
@@dehititih7571 I dont think he knew that about them though, kind of why I thought nick was the only deserving one, he only saw the good in them. and i felt like he only didnt like kai because she was so good but also recognized she was such a sweet person and wasnt negative like other players(daniel)he was so freaking smart with his moves that i found it funny honestly because he wasnt taking tons of time to think about the things he said, if they had all voted for the most popular person he would have won
@@dehititih7571 not really, in season 1 the finalists were all big targets who were constantly influencers like shubby and joey. the difference is that everyone in the season liked each other and voted with their hearts. kai and james voted with their hearts genuinely, and so did nick, but the band backstabbed him--and their "strategic" play ended up cucking themselves
@@emmi5780 in season one nobody had a clue about the circle let. The seasons after that, people had more knowledge about what the show is about and how to properly play the game. Lets not forgot that season 1 was also the season were people took catfishing personally and were overly sensitive at the finale! Kai and James didnt "vote with their hearts". They had no other choice but to vote how they voted because they didnt have the number on their side anyway, them not being close to Nick and therefore not having to vote him high was conviniently lucky. Also Nick wasnt "back stabbed" his whole alliance was about playing a strategic game so they did in the end. Also Nick voted strategically too but he had less knowledge about who to target (unlike Ashley and Isabella) did because HE was the one with the numbers on his side. There was no way for him to vote strategically
I was 100% team Nick, cmonnnnn guys, he was playing so well, the whole Vince incident?? Please, he was very strategic but played the dumb flirtatious guy thus people only thinking he was a good player from the middle onwards in the game. Kai was awesome and very fun, it doesn't make any sense to be mad at Nick for being onto her bc she was a GOOD player. I wish Nick had won but not sad abt James tho, he DID play a good game! The whole Jackson thing was a disaster, that girl was NOT good LOL. Daniel was also very fun, but played very little and was constantly on the fence. Isabella honestly....not very good but could have been worst, Ashley I thought people would catch on to her but they actually didn't and I'm not mad about it either. I was sad to see Calvin go so early but he was a good player and that is why he left, being a threat and all. Best season so far, in my opinion, the whole drama with Nick and Kai was very entertaining. Finally some people were up to play some game and not being emotional all the timeee
nick lost, bc all of his Alliances backstabbed him in the End. So Kais alliance Votet him Last and his alliance second to last. He dug his own grave, if he would have taken Ashley back to the other alliance, they all could have been just cool. I jsut wanted Isabella to get kicked out
@@meuchler4d412 true, but I think the real problem is how the final ranting are done. I think it should be different, maybe by fans, for example, so the game can be more abt the audience who watched the whole drama. But it is a popularity contest amongst the players so idk
@@rayannetirza9432 maybe they could do both, like 50% of the ratings are their ratings and 50% audience. And thats a "surprise" so they dont behave all good to get good ratings or smthing
@@meuchler4d412 mmm i wouldnt call it backstabbing while it is true, its a bit of a stretch, they were trying to play it "strategically" which was an idiotic move on their part. anyone with half a braincell knows that if nick and kai were the top influencers and leaders of alliances, they would be deemed a threat and voted last. that would ultimately make someone like ashley or james in the top (isabella would be down with nick and kai mainly because she was a strong alliance with nick, deeming her a threat). but god yes i wanted isabella GONE. i was so glad daniel and ruksana left, they were drier and more boring than cardboard. kinda upset isabella didn't leave, she needed to leave. she just got a free ride to the finals because of nick
James won because of the friction and game plan of the other members getting in the way of each other. And they didn't vote for the most popular, they voted for the guy they didn't think was going to win!!!

And even the ones that didn't didn't really have a bad thing to say about her behavior other than those jealous words, and even the one who said things out of jealously said they can't really say why they did it.
Chris was the best person for this job!
Loved this season, but poor Michelle lol! Imagine being yourself then getting rated in last place, and the next day you're cloned. Then having them like the clone over you. And finally to add flames to the fire the "better version of yourself" got eliminated the very next day.
I don’t think I can keep watching after seeing the real Michelle get eliminated. Watching people carry on so confidently wrong just irks me too much. And the fact that they can’t find out the truth until the end makes it worse.
@@amandaa7708 They ended up finding out halfway through if it makes you feel better lol
Lol I laughed so hard at this. They wanted every version is Michelle GONE!
I know she was older and a lot of younger ppl also say how hard it is to message and jump in but to me she seemed like she didn’t try hard enough to be like hold up this me fk the other person trying to be me
I wanted Kai to win so bad.…
shes my cousin
Kai deserved to win 100%
I think if the public was to vote for the winner Kai would have won and I think she definitely should have won, but yeah James was ok too
Me 2
I agree they definitely played her on that win.
James betrayed his alience and folded multiple times. Ashley and Isabella’s only strategy was to cling to nick. Nick had an unfair advantage due to Vince. Kai was the only player who truly deserved to win
AGREED!
@@disconnected7340 Yeah, it’s not Nick’s fault. People should blame Calvin, because he gave Nick the advantage and still saw Kai, but for some reason people keep forgetting he was on the show😭
FACTS!!
Period
Right
Daniel was my whole heart this season. I was devastated when he was blocked. I also really liked Jacki & wish she hadn’t come in so late.
I favored their side of the alliances more.
yes i wish we would’ve gotten to see more of jacki, and the game was not the same after daniel left
No way, Daniel was mean spirited!
Yes, Daniel was my favourite and James my least favourite. I wasn't that fond of Kai either. I was sad when Calvin left. I found that he and Daniel were probably the most genuine people there. I loves 'Ashley' too and I wish she won instead of James.
@@heatheraggus7501 Mean spirit? He was one of the nicest players. What show were you watching? 🤣😂 I cannot take you seriously.
I know it's how the game works, but it still frustrating when the most liked players and the ones who had a great game the entire season are ranked so low in the final ranking and the middle players or newest players are ranked so high since they aren't such a threat to others. That's the game, so congrats to James, but I still wanted Kai or Nick to win for playing such an amazing game since day 1.
This is the first season where the finalist weren't the most charismatic and popular people. In the previous two seasons people who got the furthest were the ones who were the most liked by everyone, while in this season it was almost the opposite way and people like Ruksana and Daniel, who probably would have ended up in the finale if the game was played the same way as in the previous seasons, basically got eleminated for being too neutral and likable. The only people who deserved to be in the finale were Kai and Nick and maybe Ashley, James did so many stupid decisions that I can't comprehend how he managed to get to the end and Isabella just kinda ended up there by default
Kai and Nick practically stole the show. They were the only people I actually looked forward to watching--they were both so entertaining and charismatic. I also understand how Ashley got into the finale--but seriously, Isabella? She only got here because of Nick, in all honesty. Does Nick's back hurt from carrying his alliance and the whole show? 😭
nick is the only reason why isabella stayed in the game this long because he kept protecting her
If Ruksana said I'm confused and I dont know one more time. I was just like ladyyyyyyy.....omg. Do u know how to play. Same with Daniel. They both were so stayyyyyyyy. Jeeez
@@lifeisthedash god Ruksana and Daniel were so boring they hurt me. I mean Daniel had a couple of funny comments but other than that it was nothing, they were the most driest people who didn’t try anything-I was so glad they left. I liked James better than them LOL
@@emmi5780 INDEED
I think it made so much sense that James won. I knew it was either gonna be him or Ashley/Matt because nobody wants to vote the strongest players (Kai & Nick) at the top for the Finale, it was always gonna be one of the players in the middle ;)
That's one reason the shows stupid . When a person plays the perfect game and get last place . That game is broke
I’ve watched all the UK seasons too (which I believe they aren’t continuing due to safety reasons for the players) & some times the players vote with their heart, some times they vote strategically. Voting strategically is usually what gets the most popular players voted last, of course.
@@motattoo008 Kai had chance but with ruskana Daniel and Calvin was block I know she wasn't going to win she would also have a chance with she block nick when she was a influence Nick fuck his game by keeping his alliance
@@Tessachannel28 well he definitely did something wrong seeing as he got 5th . When ur a strong player that's what is going 5o happen anyways since they are voting who they can beat and not the best player . Kai should of got way better then 4th as well
@@disconnected7340 kai and nick was most deserving of the win but James did play a good game. Kai still making it to the finale with the huge target she had shows how great of a player she was.
I love that Netflix brought Chris back to host this! Such a fun "after show" type thing for super fans.
Yesssss, Daniel!! No holding back 😂😂😂 I hate fake nicety niceness
So true i love him so much! He's hilarious and keeps it real 100% even until here
Unfortunately I think James is the least deserving winner we've had so far in The Circle. Nick played the game masterfully and was easily able to manipulate James into make very stupid decisions. His winning was basically a fluke because people ranked him higher because they thought he had no chance of winning. It'd be one thing if he purposely got rid of Daniel and Jacki because he thought people would rank him higher if he had less allies, but he was completely fooled by Nick. I was hoping for Nick or Kai to pull out the win, but if not them, Ashley or Isabella. James was the only person I was actively rooting against.... yet here we are haha
I have to say that I was SO pissed when Michelle got blocked. I'm a true southern girl and Michelle I loved from the beginning. I just couldn't believe it.
I swear me too!! I was like she’s such a real ass lady! Also, she has that momma vibe! I thought it was awful then cloning her! Like she didn’t even have chance! Why should someone have to explain there there real self
Sofia really pissed me off towards the ending. She was a good player but shes shady as a person. I screamed when she didnt win with excitement
Bro this is so wild to me. I know Sophia in person but I've only ever heard in passing that she did a TV show or something and I'm just now actually looking it up. Sophia is not shady in the slightest, I'll have to watch the show to see what she did though 😆
@@shelbysteverson4841She was shady as heck. I couldn't stand her and wanted her to get blocked so bad. Her unjustified hate for Kai disgusted me.
I didn't like a single person in the band. They questioned Kai's sincerity when she only aligned with people who were being themselves. I thought James made poor decisions but he somehow ended up winning so kudos to him. If he had kept more people from his alliance, then it would have been possible Kai was ranked higher over him in the final ratings. I was rooting for Kai, but I'm happy for James.
Definitely was rooting for Kai but congratulations James 🥳
Same!
I actually liked Nick tbh. He wasnt mean about Kai he just saw her as a threat which she was and still recognized how nice of a person she was. Sophia took it a bit far at times by just constantly digging at Kai any chance she got. Ashley I didnt like either because of how quickly she switched sides. Jackson was boring and weird like when she said "i dont need you" about Calvin after getting a big ego just because she now had big Nicks attention lol
Me either the Band was the pitts.
Yeah I didn’t like the band at all!! Ugh I was like anyone else but one of them. I loved Kai and they hated her for no reason
I think they have to change how the winner is chosen on this show... I understand the ratings but it ends with us being so unsatisfied because it's not the person who played the best game or the most liked player, it doesn't hold the same weight or integrity
Did you see who won the fan vote?
changing how the winner is chosen would literally defeat the purpose of the game. This isnt bb uk
@@Kyy625 who won the fan vote I heard it was Ashley
@@Tessachannel28 Kai!
Exactly
This season was so much fun, so much strategy and betrayal compared to other previous seasons, good catfishes, mat/ashley is so carismatic, love him. The minigames were kinda boring, the only one that i liked was the cake decoration for bestfriend.
Yes! It was so fun, i loooove when people actually play the game
Michelle was like no ma'am i dont wanna be associated with this show anymore. poor thing. imagine being yourself and being catfished and people believe the catfish over you. shooook.
Ruksana wasn’t there either
That made me soooooo mad omg
They did her dirty with that one smh The twins did NOT need a second chance so early in the game
The finale was very disappointing. Kai was robbed.
Kai lol . Nick was robbed
@@motattoo008 of an ass whooping
@@youmadornahhh I completely agree on Kai being robbed as well . I feel Nick did the best seeing how he had deals on both sides and got threw with out breaking any of them . But if not him then Kai should have won it . It's just way it's setup the least popular wins which also means the least deserving wins .
@@cartiman17 they won't rob you of one though lol 😆 😂
@@motattoo008 you thought you ate that huh😂
This season is so disappointing. I’m glad James won over Ashley or Sophia. Kai was definitely robbed. They didn’t rate fairly because if they did Kai or even nick would’ve won.
Matthew was my favorite, he did excellent as Ashley, but Kai and Nick were the best players, to have made it to the end through strategy they really should have won. James did nothing to win, he was actually really weak, not a strong player, both times he gave in to Nick's reasoning, and gave up his own people, he only won because the other's were afraid of Kai and Nick. Very disappointed, hoped it would have been Matthew out of the two.
I completely agree but also Nick and James had said om an Instagram live that both chats they ended up talking for up to 6 hours. Nick had said that it went on until 5am. This made me think he didn't deserve it less and it also made me think Nick deserved to win even more.
@@pablotitosancheto3525 thanks for sharing, I didn't see that.
@@pablotitosancheto3525 wow really? 6 hours? that’s insane
James screwed over Kai. Kai or Nick should've won

How?
James saved her
@@mbnvnd he literally sent TWO of the people in her alliance, home. Daniel and Jackie. He's an idiot who got so easily manipulated by Nick.
@@marioknox4302 yeah but at the end of the day that's he won. The strongest players never win in these types of games, it's always the right hand man that creeps up and takes the victory.
Ashley, Isabella & Nick were so damn annoying and cringe I just couldn't and James like how did he won, nobody expect it 🤣
If Matthew won as Ashley he would have been King of catfish and Delessa is the Queen.
Or vice-versa 🤔
Bit of a stretch tho considering he didnt talk to other players and was carried. Deelisha had to really play hard to stay afloat
@@lifeisthedash 100% agree, ashley and isabella only made it to the final bc nick carried them. not a bad strategy but still

@@jonathanrasheedakaml79 oh 1000 percent 🤣🤣
Daniel was the best, without Daniel the show would have been far more boring.
Kai alliance vs Nick alliance who's side were y'all on and why?
I was def on Kai's alliance side.
Kai alliance for sure.....Nick's alliance was built out of jealousy and racial microagressions
Each side had some of my favorites in the cast lol. Ruksana, Daniel, and Jackie on one side and Nick, Matt, and Sophia on the other. Hard to choose.
Definitely kais, I find it so funny how nick’s alliance was all the catfishes 😭 & I loved the people on Kais
team kai for sure
team kai
I'm not sure how James won, but I'm glad he did, either him or Kai
I 100% agree with Daniel!!! James should not have won!!! He had a really bad game!!
People are knocking James’ game play but I thought he started strategic conversations with people and made connections quickly considering he was in so late
Me too! To me he built rapport one on one!
yeah he played as smart as he could’ve buy i’m still not happy that he folded against nick TWICE
Absolutely, he did play a smart game and while I don’t love that he betrayed Daniel and Jacki, he did what he had to do to win. Tbh I think he deserved it (emotionally) more than Nick.
Same!!! I feel like he was very smart and played well. The fact that he didn't get blocked after joining so late was impressive
Isabella is giving MASSIVE bully vibes. Typical, you see a new pretty girl in school and you start hating her and having this fixation on her. Then you turn everyone against her and get frustrated with people pay her compliment (call her queen). She also gave massive fake vibes during the reunion episode, screaming and trying to excuse her catfish reasons. Do not like her one bit
She was my least favourite. Thank goodness she did not win.
Exactly at what point in your life do you stop using your sister as a clutch because you're insecure
Oh man thank goodness it wasnt me. She really gave off this shady vibe towards the end. And she wouldnt shut up at the reunion. You can tell she was nervous to let Nick talk.
i also didn’t like how she made being gay her only personality trait
right!? what also rubbed me off in the wrong way was how she kept talking and talking in the finale "omg sorry i didn't break your heart, right, nick? you're a smart guy" and how she kept going on and on about how it worked out and didn't read the room. I also didn't really like how she completely ignored Jackson (aka Rachel) in the meetings. I mean like I understand you won't always meet the people you aren't close to--but "Jackson" was literally in your alliance and they were your closest ally next to Nick before Jackson left. I really didn't appreciate how she just completely ignored Rachel and then moved on to the next person in line. maybe im just being too sensitive though
LOVEEEE seeing Chris host! Remembered laughing at his messages every time 😂 great going Chris! 👏👏👏
I was for *Kai* & *Ruksana* and the funniest part was when the clone came.. poor Michelle
In the history of the circle USA and the UK, the most popular player never won especially if their alliance makes it with them. It tends to be the most popular person of the smaller alliance but because Kai was always big of a threat the second most of the smaller alliance won.
I'm glad James won they took out the king they tried it on the queen but in the end, the jester won.
But Joey was the most popular player in S1 and he won!
@@sophielem59 eh I disagree I didn’t like him
@@kandy1643 they said he was the most popular, it doesn't matter if you liked him or not
@@marbly5361 by what I remember the other dude that came in second was the most popular.
@@kandy1643 Wrong, Joey was the most popular and he took the win due to that popularity.
Dont get me wrong I love Daniel but he was also carried, also he should had blocked ashley instead of jackson when he had the chance, maybe would had made it further if he did
EXACTLY! Jackson was not a threat at all. There was no reason to block Jackson. Ashley was the threat.
Daniel is my spirit guide, Everything that he said I agreed 100%
I am mad with my fullest heart that James won, it should’ve been Kai but I knew the second James blocked Daniel and then freaking Jackie (the only 2 other people left that would vote her high) that she wasn’t gonna win. He is the worst player ever, so from them on I was ok with Nick or Ashley winning
Edit: With that being said they need to change how the winner is selected because people are purposely not voting for certain people to win. the point of the game is to win based on popularity so technically kai or Nick should have won because they were the most popular but the people voted , voted backwards because they didn’t want those specific people winning so I think they need to do the rankings different , perhaps like the show called four weddings where you have to rank the players from first to last in different categories. For instance for the circle the diff categories could be “who was the most strategic” , “who is you’re favorite/closet connection” , “who deserves to win” , etc. the players rank the other players in these diff categories first to last, each place scores diff points and then the circle would take all those scores to find out who is 1st 2nd etc. to figure who’s the best/winner
Because technically in this game at least for this season you DONT want to be the most popular cuz then people will vote you last!! But I thought that was the POINT of the damn game
Nick or Kai, I was team Kai whole time but wouldn’t have been mad if nick won
Omg just finished this season and ur absolutely right! I was so shocked Ashley basically said she’d vote Nick low bc it would increase her chance of winning. But since other ppl ranked her low the plan only worked in favor of James. I’m sure watching back nick realized his alliance wasn’t much of a benefit to him in the end. I didn’t like him until the end lol but shocked he got ranked 5th in the finale 😮
kai needs to win i think, they had a lot of chance to block her but they just so scared to block her and they did not even see her. i love the energy that queen had, also she lost calvin,ruksana and daniel :(
Daniel keeping it all the way real!!!!!! Lmbo
Yasssss!
Yup!
Daniel ithe best 😊
KAI should’ve won no one can convince me otherwise
period i was rooting for her since episode 1
Kai and Nick were hands down the best players this season. I was crushed neither of them won.
Me too she went through the MOST in the circle for just being her authentic southern BLACK WOMEN SELF !
IKR
James came in at the perfect time, things were just starting to get strategic when he got there.
Chris understood the assignment! Well done!👏🏾
Daniel was absolutely right that James had the worst game play. If we’re going to talk about best players, Kai and Nick were it (but I am biased towards Kai more because she seems like she’s the nicest person ever). James was weak as hell when it came to being an influencer , letting Nick walk all over him 🙄 the only reason he won was because Kai voted for him because she was loyal to her alliance and because everyone in “The Band” voted strategically by placing each other at the bottom. It was sheer dumb luck, but I guess it’s good it worked out in James’ favor. I do really think that if he fought to keep Daniel and Nicki, he probably still would’ve won or at least would’ve been rated pretty high. At least that way, this season would’ve had a more satisfying ending 🤷🏽♀️
true but on the other hand, Jacki and Daniel would rate Kai higher over James giving Kai the win
James actually had the best gameplan. If Daniel and jacki were still in the game he would have not won because his popularity would be more known meaning those who would vote strategically would know that they have to vote him low in order to win. Kai would have probably voted him high, daniel would have voted more strategically, Jacki we dont know, Nick would have voted him extremely low and same with Ashley and Isabelle. The way James played the game meant that all the other players apart from Nick would underestimate him and vote him higher to prevent Nick from winning.
this is why I fucking love daniel he is straight up not hiding nothing he says it straight up 😂 fucking icon!!!
6:43 “james shouldn’t have won, that bitch had the worst fucking gameplay i have ever seen” HAHAHAHAAAAA
Indeed 😁
Matthew and Sophia weren’t very likeable on the show, but they catfished so well! Their strategies completely worked. Gotta love the hustle.
This season was really bland in my opinion I couldn't really latch on to any person I feel like it was rushed.
the clone player was so fun i didnt see that coming ... great idea love itt
Am I the only one who thinks that Isabella's hatred and obsession towards Kai has something to do with racism? she attacked kai from the start for no reason.
She gave me total jealousy and maybe prejudice, there were moments where I feel she was more taken with Kai than Nick. Nick genuinely looked excited to see Kai and he end complimented her, he made her out to be a mastermind. But Isabella was notably, in her words “Obsessed with Kai”, which is a little strange.
No, and that's terrible to accuse someone of that based on your subjective observations.
@@heatheraggus7501 well, but they are my thoughts and it is my right to express it if I wish
Some of you see racism everywhere, it is actually toxic and show how prejudiced you are; it says more about you and those who support your statement than of Sophia. I didn't really care for Sophia just as I didn't care for Kai either but some.of you are so full of resentment that is actually sad to see. You have no evidence whatsoever to claim that. Kai was manipulative and had secret alliances, she herself created a bubble and Sophia saw that, hence, since she wanted to win she knew she had to block Kai.
I agree
Daniel should have blocked Ashley/Matthew instead of Jackson/Rachel when he had a chance to become Influencer, so that way his wolf pack alliance with Nick is still intact and James wouldn't gone rouge talking about his trans brother. If I was a circle influencer, I would block a player who hasn't been at the bottom 4 times in a row and Ashley fit that descripton.
I’m sorry this way the best season ! They put did themselves with all the plot twist omgggg kept me entertained the whole time !!!! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
i liked everything about this season except for the Michelle storyline
Worst season for the amount of caving James kept doing did it for me.
Jackie is the one who, make him favorable, and he vote her out
idk why Kai dumb ass keep voting for him as number 1 like yea he gonna bring u to the finale but he doesn't care about u winning at all. Had she not voted him number 1 all the time someone else more dependable in her alliance would've voted out the right people
DANIEL DID WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE❗️
Sophia was the one I liked the least. Kai should have won.
Please do a season where every player is a player from one of the previous seasons and they all are catfishing, it would be fun to see them trying to suss out catfish not knowing that they know a lot of the players already!!!😀
Nick was the only likeable person in the band for me
Just watched all 3 seasons back to back. Season 2 was my favourite in terms of casting and the drama but I liked the games in Season 3 more. Wasn't really feeling James as the winner but clearly whatever he did worked. Most iconic part was seeing Nick's face when he recognised his whole alliance was fake😂
Not fake but cat fishes I hate when peapol think being a cat Fish on the show is being fakr or cheating everybody had that option and it gives you an advantage
"Isabella" was my least favorite, I can't stand her.She did not show his personality, The only thing I know about her is that she is gay, repeated it thousands of times.I only sensed his insane obsession with kai.
Lol 🤣🤣🤣 I appreciate Daniel bluntness with him throwing shade cause i felt everything he said. “The band” is so boring and I couldn’t stand them except Matt he’s okay he should of came in as himself cause he seem like an actually cool person
I hate how he calls Nick, daddy Nick 🙎🏽♀️ it’s cringy
Congrats James and Matt. Also congrats to each of the Circle players! Matt is so cute, smart and handsome. Yass Daddy Matt. Love you!
This was the most boring season ever. And Kai/Nick were robbed
Yes it was such a disappointment.
Yea I really dont get how people say this is better than season 1 and 2. Circle Brazil was better than this too. It was basically the NICK show. Every week Nick's the influencer...surpriseeee🙄 And I'll still never get over how u blocked calvin cuz hes protecting kai. But then yall said she was a catfish🤔? But u all barely spoke to her🙄. Then the reason she was a catfish was she spoke to well....WHATTTTT??? Just bullshitttt👎👎👎
i thought it was gonna be boring but i ended up enjoying it
Just finished the season and honestly I was rooting for Ashley/Matthew so much. I really thought it was going to be him that won in the end because he was so well liked by everyone. I don’t think there was a single person in the finale that would have made me upset to see win.
Kai all the way!!!!
Daniel seems low key bitter haha
That's because he probably is lol
Yes but he is still the most entertaining of all. I love him.
You guys! Where is Calvin?
Really still think Nick or Kai should’ve won
Ngl I was kinda hoping for a enemies to lovers storyline for Nick & Kai the whole time sorry
same 😭
It confuses me how people can be attracted to him. She has more taste than that
@@greenflower360 he is an smart, charismatic and attractive guy for most people including me.
@@greenflower360 he’s attractive, smart, and funny it’s not surprising that people would want to date him
@@greenflower360 omg right? The man is a typical average yt guy
Nick is biased against people. U choose people who were similar to you or who u wanted to bed. The crazy thing is u were in a guys crew AND U CAME UP WITH THE IDEA TO BLOCK CALVIN 🤔🤔🤔 And used Kai as the reason 🙄 And daniels gay so u immediately tossed him away for Jackson. 😒 Just bias all the wayyyy. Same with how he came across to James. Cudnt even be agreeable in the Influencer chats. And in the end your own crewwwww u chose and built up rated u LOWWWW🙃 Pulled the rug, right from under your feet👀
Wait what? He was best friends with Calvin-the one who proposed him to leave was Ashley. Nick wanted Kai to leave, not Calvin. He wanted to flirt with Kai too, but it was a common fact that she and Calvin had a thing so he stayed away from her. Daniel drifted away to Ruksana’s group so they didn’t talk much, since Nick was against Kais alliance since she was a threat. He wasn’t agreeable because he didn’t want to toss his alliance in the gutter unlike James. I’m not sure what you’re talking about
Let me just say this right now Chris I remember you did a video for my wife during the pandemic using cameo and you had said Evelyn Orellana and Joel Alexander the new nachos OMG you had me laughing
the show needs a better way to pick a winner. they dont really vote on who they think should win they vote based on what they think other people are voting and what will give them the best chance
True 😂
"Everyone knows Ashley was my homegirl since day 1" 😂😂😂 yeah ok
Poor Daniel trying so hard to be edgy and sassy but just making himself look more and more like a sore loser.
Exactly! So many people in the comments are eating it up, but none of it is funny or entertaining for me. They focus so much on “real” as if deception and strategy isn’t part of the game
@@Hvdess let’s be honest: he’s just mad that he’s not even close to being the strategist he thought he was gonna be. his reaction when Nick blocked Ruksana was something else.
Y’all mad he speaking the truth. He isn’t a sore loser. He just spoke facts. James had terrible game play but he somehow won in the end so it’s whatever it’s
@@vicky4912 oh, believe me, I don’t think James should’ve won… but Daniel is still annoying! He played a terrible game and got so little screen time so now he’s just trying to make up for it
@@vicky4912 how come its a terrible player?? so he trade daniel with nick and made a pack that he and kai will be saved. Which they did. I think the terrible player was jacky. I mean he shouldnt trust him. And jet she did and got eliminated. Remember kai and daniel were planned that james talk to jacky and james already was doing it. He was a step ahead. Eliminating daniel got empaty with nick, ashley and isabella. Thats why he got influencer and he knew he need kai so he wont be a target point. I mean he got influencer twice, because nobody see him as treat. He play well.
out of the 3 circle winners James is definitely the least deserving
I was hoping for Nick or Kai to win...James needed the money as well so Im happy for him... Didnt like Daniels and Sophies vibes tho
I agree. When Daniel went to see Sophia, they were like two nasty cats.
@@heatheraggus7501 I love Daniel! He was just eliminated by Nick, what do you expect? He could support Sophie if he wanted.
NICK deservess to winn he played the best game!!!
James congrats! Too bad you weren’t in the cook out as well instead of those other 3 guys! It wouldve been so much better!
I think James should use his winnings to buy a pair of balls because he folded on his alliances every time he was an influencer 🤥
Big Nick Energy was ruling the Circle . He deserved to win ...
I feel like Kai played the best game. She deserved to win but james did as well
i love james way too much lol. just himself and thats it! love it
They're so scared that Nick and Kai would win, the catfishes who were riding on Nick's tail got to the finale.
And James who wasn't able to save his allies, won.
Still congratulations!🎉
What happened to Calvin?
Maybe have the blocked players also vote.
yes! i think that would be good. if the blocked players got to vote, james would’ve lost. cause he betrayed so many people in his alliances lol. also the people who would be voting would’ve had no chance of winning, so it would’ve been less strategic
where the hell is ruksana, and michelle?
Michelle, Ruksana, and Calvin are the only ones not in this episode
Was surprised, but loved James winning. The final ranking will always be a gamble because no one knows how everyone's strategy will play out against each other. James said he sacrificed two alliance members so he wouldn't look like a threat, and it worked. (If they revealed the final influencers, it probably would have impacted his standing.) Even if James managed to get to the finals with Kai, Jacki, Daniel and the last band member, there was no guarantee that Daniel and Jacki would not try to rank strategically to hopefully position themselves for a win, especially Daniel who was there from the beginning.
If James didn't show up when he did and become influencer at first chance, Kai would have NEVER made it to the finals. The band was still gunning for her as proven that every band member placed her at the very bottom in the final ranking. If James hadn't have Nick agree that he and Kai would be safe, she definitely would've been a goner. That did a lot for her, but doesn't mean James wasn't looking out for himself. He was also there to win.
Nick basically had a fake popularity. His ego was so big that he easily bought into the band fawning over him. Isabelle and Ashley never would've been in the band if they came into the game as themselves and used their insecurities and lust respectively to benefit from Nick.
Very disappointed with this seasons winner tbh 😐
It's been said once. Someone with a brow arched that high has a secret ambition.
I keep reminding myself that this is not Survivor. There must have been so much that has been happening behind the scenes that didn't make the cut for them to decide those votes and eventually that final ranking, coz I was a bit baffled with the results tbh. I was expecting Matthew to win.
I narrowed it down to: if you’re in the majority alliance in the end you’re almost guaranteed not to win because everyone expects you to rank high so they rank you low instead. Going in the finale, it was 3v2, Nick/Ashley/Isabella vs James/Kai. Kai wasn’t going to win because everyone had her as the dominant player along with Nick. So that left James go by unnoticed. I don’t think he had many 1st places but his average was certainly better than the other players. Something similar happened in the Brazil season. The winner started out strong but by the end people were almost counting her out, so they all ranked her high because they didn’t think she could win.
I love Daniel so much omg. Him and Ruksana were my favs I love them. And Michelle was robbed. That advantage really robbed her 💔
James is by far the worst circle player ever and Sophia gives off some major racists vibes. I'm sure someone in the studio told her who Lil Yachty was. Netflix thinks we're stupid, do they really think that we are supposed to believe that she has actually heard of lil Yachty???
Frrr🤣🤣
Love seeing Chris on my screen again!
Reading these comments maybe there should be a best player reward
I didnt like this ending as the other seasons
Matthew FTW! Even nick ftw
The real tea is that Nick picked all the white people to be in his alliance LOL. The racial divide this season was so real...
Uhhh wasn’t Calvin best friends with nick? Isn’t it sad to watch a tv show and all you see is the color of people’s skin? Should Nick give Ashley and Isabelle a paintbrush so they can paint themselves the shade you want them to be?
I don’t agree, I don’t think nick is like that as a black person. Plus he like Calvin and had nothing against James. Don’t think he hated Kai either, I think he was just playing the game.
why so negative?
Nick - Calvin - James are bros
The ones who should’ve won should’ve been either Kai, Nick, or Ashley/Matthew
Kai should’ve won
can yall please let me know im not the only one who thought nick deserved it the most? or am i just biased?
Nah you're not the only one. Nick deserved it the most. So did Kai, but I feel like Nick deserved it more. His gameplay was constant, while I feel like Kai's game declined after her allies left. It sucks how people hate him for being "too strategic and manipulative" (which is an idiotic excuse--of COURSE you have to be strategic and manipulative to win. And I really don't see him flirting with anyone else besides Isabella like people were saying). He was the most loyal as well--he kept his word constantly and saved his alliance and Kai like three times. He just got backstabbed by The Band, which sucks. I wish he joined Kai's alliance instead.
nick winning would have been great because of the good game he played but he kinda ruined it for himself by having a band full of strategic players and being the "alpha" lol he made himself the first target
@@dehititih7571 I dont think he knew that about them though, kind of why I thought nick was the only deserving one, he only saw the good in them. and i felt like he only didnt like kai because she was so good but also recognized she was such a sweet person and wasnt negative like other players(daniel)he was so freaking smart with his moves that i found it funny honestly because he wasnt taking tons of time to think about the things he said, if they had all voted for the most popular person he would have won
@@dehititih7571 not really, in season 1 the finalists were all big targets who were constantly influencers like shubby and joey. the difference is that everyone in the season liked each other and voted with their hearts. kai and james voted with their hearts genuinely, and so did nick, but the band backstabbed him--and their "strategic" play ended up cucking themselves
@@emmi5780 in season one nobody had a clue about the circle let. The seasons after that, people had more knowledge about what the show is about and how to properly play the game. Lets not forgot that season 1 was also the season were people took catfishing personally and were overly sensitive at the finale! Kai and James didnt "vote with their hearts". They had no other choice but to vote how they voted because they didnt have the number on their side anyway, them not being close to Nick and therefore not having to vote him high was conviniently lucky. Also Nick wasnt "back stabbed" his whole alliance was about playing a strategic game so they did in the end. Also Nick voted strategically too but he had less knowledge about who to target (unlike Ashley and Isabella) did because HE was the one with the numbers on his side. There was no way for him to vote strategically
I was 100% team Nick, cmonnnnn guys, he was playing so well, the whole Vince incident?? Please, he was very strategic but played the dumb flirtatious guy thus people only thinking he was a good player from the middle onwards in the game. Kai was awesome and very fun, it doesn't make any sense to be mad at Nick for being onto her bc she was a GOOD player. I wish Nick had won but not sad abt James tho, he DID play a good game! The whole Jackson thing was a disaster, that girl was NOT good LOL. Daniel was also very fun, but played very little and was constantly on the fence. Isabella honestly....not very good but could have been worst, Ashley I thought people would catch on to her but they actually didn't and I'm not mad about it either. I was sad to see Calvin go so early but he was a good player and that is why he left, being a threat and all. Best season so far, in my opinion, the whole drama with Nick and Kai was very entertaining. Finally some people were up to play some game and not being emotional all the timeee
nick lost, bc all of his Alliances backstabbed him in the End. So Kais alliance Votet him Last and his alliance second to last. He dug his own grave, if he would have taken Ashley back to the other alliance, they all could have been just cool. I jsut wanted Isabella to get kicked out
@@meuchler4d412 true, but I think the real problem is how the final ranting are done. I think it should be different, maybe by fans, for example, so the game can be more abt the audience who watched the whole drama. But it is a popularity contest amongst the players so idk
@@rayannetirza9432 maybe they could do both, like 50% of the ratings are their ratings and 50% audience. And thats a "surprise" so they dont behave all good to get good ratings or smthing
@@meuchler4d412 mmm i wouldnt call it backstabbing while it is true, its a bit of a stretch, they were trying to play it "strategically" which was an idiotic move on their part. anyone with half a braincell knows that if nick and kai were the top influencers and leaders of alliances, they would be deemed a threat and voted last. that would ultimately make someone like ashley or james in the top (isabella would be down with nick and kai mainly because she was a strong alliance with nick, deeming her a threat).
but god yes i wanted isabella GONE. i was so glad daniel and ruksana left, they were drier and more boring than cardboard. kinda upset isabella didn't leave, she needed to leave. she just got a free ride to the finals because of nick
Omg I can't wait till the next season 😄 please hurry up and I am down to be on the show 🤣🤣
Nick looks like a young James Garner, circa the Maverick TV show.
