  • There's a major difference between a "floater" and a "coaster" in Big Brother, so let's clear the air and get to the bottom of it.
    VIDEO EDIT: I want to make notice that Tyler ISN'T floating despite me saying so in the video. A better example for BB20 would be Scottie or JC.

  • @alexanderharless3021
    @alexanderharless3021 6 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Ragan from BB12 used to host an internet show with a teaching theme and he explicitly defined the qualities of a Floater and why Rachel had misinterpreted it. Similar to your assertions, one of the more dramatic uses of the term went on to define it negatively which is not at all the case. Good video!

  • @davidbaker6157
    @davidbaker6157 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Arguably, the shift towards “floater” having a negative connotation began 5 seasons before Rachel uttered those famous words when, in (the good) All-Stars, floaters were explicitly targeted (and belittled) in order to buy Chilltown the time necessary to fully take control of the game. The original architect of the prototype version of floating was instrumental in tearing it down and, five seasons later, Rachel being Rachel solidified the demise of classic floating as a socially acceptable strategy. It also didn’t help that so many players both before and after fundamentally misunderstand the intricacies of the strategy and just how difficult it is to pull off; so many people watch season after season where players who aren’t skilled enough to be floaters get their games blown up by their own ineptitude (and conflate competition wins with good strategy).

      dawaby1 but several big brother contestants themselves have clearly used the term to mean what he calls a “coaster”, and then he says that they used it incorrectly. I think connotation is just as important as denotation, even more so actually, especially when the denotation doesn’t even formally exist past what perediam says. I agree with the first guy, the definition of floater should just remain as how it is used colloquially in the game. Free agent is a better term.

    • @boston_8213
      @boston_8213 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

Same with everyone calling Andy a rat simply because he played a flawless floater game. Everyone plays to their skillset.

    I'd actually like to throw something out there on where the origin of the split btwn floater classic and new floater actually occurred, and it was actually hinted upon towards the end of this video: look at how Jase referred to floaters, and doing some quick math you'll come to the conclusion he was referring to anyone that was neither S6 nor Chilltown. at that time it was already being used as a pejorative by the likes of obviously him, but also Janelle, Kaysar, and James as well on the show to refer to anyone they saw as an easy boot that neither they nor Chilltown would really miss because at that time S6 was scared shitless to actually put Will and Boogie up together. it's a crude, early definition of what would come to be known as the new floater which is really just a coaster but compared to Rachel's using it to describe only ppl she didn't like, and it becomes apparent that while Rachel was the popular cause of everyone hating what they called floaters she didn't change the definition, as that was done 5 seasons before she was even in casting.

      The Sovs definitely called the people who weren't officially with them or ChillTown floaters, but they meant it in the "going back and forth between alliances" way. When they called Erika or whoever a floater they were accusing her of being duplicitous and playing both sides, they weren't saying that she was sitting back and doing nothing. Rachel is the one who associated the term floater with "someone who sits back and does nothing"

      @@allycat0136 Exactly...a lot of fans don't get that it's smarter to lay low at the beginning, and then turn it on right at the end, because notice how the early boots are usually those who play too hard from the jump and make themselves easy targets

    I think that if you could pull off the floating strategy it is the best strategy, but the problem is too many people get caught and proceed to go home. That’s why you see a lot of great players like Andy, Will, and Dan in the first half of BB10 choose the floating strategy and execute it well. Then again you also see people like Ronnie who get caught playing both sides.

    Rachel's famous line also led to a lot of casuals and recruited houseguests thinking comp wins has to do with being a floater and it drives me nuts. Especially, having to listen to players saying on the feeds like they even know what any of these terms mean. They should give them a BB dictionary with the rule book in the storage room just to make the feedsters happy! It's the least they could do for us!

  • @supernovaskies5044
    @supernovaskies5044 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Victoria is such an interesting case because when coasters go far its usually because they throw comps, and provide shoulders to cry on or at least stay out of the way of the more explosive personalities in the game, but with Victoria, she aligned herself with the power duo very early on, which put her at odds with most of their targets for the majority of the season, BUT SHE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING SO NO ONE KNEW. In a way, the one move she made, aligning with Cody and Derrick so early on, was the best thing she could have done for her game. And it almost worked, because had she gotten to Final 2, some of the jurors later admitted they would have voted for her, like Jocasta, Donny, and Frankie was considering it as well

    I am watching BB 12 (ep 5) rn and aboutthe part who mixed up floater and coaster - in a talk in HoH room, Monet actually said she would "go after a floater, cause everyone is like, we can get them out later" which may have been the reason why Rachel said that famous quote, meaning she actually was the one who popularised it, but didn't come up with it

    After seeing your review of BBCAN 6, I think it's interesting to not see Paras from that season mentioned. She bounced from power to power and perfected it while also performing the art of jury management each week. When she said she was gonna win, and she did, I felt it! Also Karen from BB5 is another example of classic floating while also being good with the majority of the cast.
