were outraged that he received the role. The Big Brother 26 A.I. Instigator was voted by America, and gives Tucker the power to create chaos in the house through his fellow houseguests’ A.I. avatars. Beginning Wednesday, August 28, fans can choose to award Tucker with $0, $5,000, $10,000, or $20,000 based on how he performs as the A.I. Instigator. Throughout Big Brother 26 so far, Tucker has dominated the game, winning one Head of Household (HOH), three Power of Veto, and two BB A.I. Arena competitions.
“Let’s just rename Big Brother ‘The Tucker Show.'”
In an Instagram post, Big Brother announced that Tucker is the A.I. Instigator, and some fans were very disappointed with this choice.
In the comments section of the post, Instagram user mrs_tragic00 wrote, “Who the h*** voted Tucker? As if he doesn’t get enough screen time already, let’s just rename Big Brother ‘The Tucker Show.'” @thenewbatch__ pointed out, “Why vote Tucker as the AI instigator when he’s literally been the instigator of the whole season?” @eleniziebarth wrote, “How do we know for sure that Tucker was chosen by America? The more the show goes on, the more it seems fixed.”
Several Big Brother 26 Fans Were Thrilled To See Tucker Revealed As The A.I. Instigator
Some Big Brother 26 Fans Feel That Tucker Is The Only One Playing The Game
However, not everyone was outraged about Tucker being the A.I. Instigator. Instagram user @meghanbeth5 wrote, “I voted for Tucker. He’s the only one playing the game and isn’t afraid to tell it to someone’s face.” Instagram user @itsniag_ added, “Tucker keeps the show interesting! So many floaters this season,” while @malnox504 wrote, “Give this man an Emmy for saving this season!” A few fans also encouraged others to vote Tucker for America’s Favorite Player at the end of the season, which awards its winner with a $50,000 prize. Love him or hate him, Tucker has definitely been playing the game.
While it’s understandable that Big Brother 26 fans wanted Tucker to be the A.I. Instigator because he’s been a master of mayhem and chaos throughout the season so far, it’s true that he’s been dominating airtime. It would’ve been interesting to see someone like Leah Peters or Joseph Rodriguez, who’ve been playing under the radar all season, receive a power that forced them to play the game. Tucker has been a competition beast and made many unpredictable moves, such as saving Angela Murray with the Power of Veto instead of himself, so giving him another power does seem excessive.
Tucker also made a strange choice with his first A.I. Instigator statement. He used Quinn Martin’s avatar to out his showmance with Rubina Bernabe and mention the Pentagon alliance again. It was a misstep because it greatly upset Rubina, but Tucker couldn’t tell her that he did it because he has to keep the power a secret. Tucker felt terrible about making Rubina cry. Hopefully, Tucker will do better with his next A.I. Instigator statement, as he promised he would. Tucker is a polarizing figure who probably wasn’t the best choice for the A.I. Instigator, but he’ll surely do his best.
