* ChainSmoker: Kent smoked so much that he ran out of cigarettes during his stay in the house, and attempted to quit smoking, as production would not provide him with more. It is very heartbreaking when you learn that this habit of his eventually helped lead to his death.

Will uses people to his own ends all the time and makes them think they're in charge. Then he upsets the balance and turns them out of the house as soon as they lose their helpfulness to his game.

Perhaps the most infamous contestant in the history of the US series, Justin Sebik was a terror inside the Big Brother house and is yet to be surpassed by even the worst of the worst in the most recent installments of the show, due to crossing a line no one else has in that he inadvertently put a fellow contestant's life in jeopardy. An incredible hothead with no sense of restraint, Justin basically did whatever he wanted, even if it resulted in property damage. Completely out of control and, his time was spent antagonizing the other houseguests and creating pandemonium.

Completely out of control and, his time was spent antagonizing the other houseguests and creating pandemonium.

Finally, he took things a step too far after a drunken escapade with Krista led to them both sprawled out on top of the kitchen countertop and flirting, where one very soused Justin had the bright idea to take out a knife from one of the nearby drawers and joke about killing her in jest. The resulting spectacle caused a blackout on the live feeds (the footage of the incident was unsuitable for viewers due to its perilously dark nature) and Justin's immediate summoning to the Diary Room where the producer and the show's psychiatrist confronted him. Discovering that Justin was a loose cannon incapable of recognizing his wrongdoings, even if they meant he could unintentionally harm somebody, for the good of the house, the decision was made to eject him from the game. Justin was Expelled from the house and automatically finished in last place, before anyone was even evicted, preceding even the first official live eviction.

to:

* TheBadGuyWinsTheBadGuyWins: The US's run and perhaps Big Brother itself's first real, dedicated villain, who easily manipulated the house through psychological warfare, and on top of that is a real doctor and versed in psychology in an early stage in its development when the other players had never resorted to cunning like that before on the show on such magnitude as Will did. He was one of the best possible picks for the show ''ever.''



* SilverFox: In his later years, Will has begun to develop a salt-and-pepper hairdo, with his sideburns going gray.

Hardy called him a "dangerous third grader" and also threatened to have him on the ground if he tried something, being a security guard. He also thought about cracking Krista over the head with a dustpan and talking about killing her! Hell, the ''actual psychologist'' of the show had to chat with him for an extensive period of time, and a producer was present as well. The fact that Justin was able to clearly recite the warning he was given earlier was enough to convince them that he needed OUT of the game and out FAST.
