Does anyone on the last five or so seasons of Big Brother have the potential to be on a Angela Rummans level?
She wasn't very entertaining on her BB season. It was her dominance and heading up an alliance with Tyson that made her stand out on USA which anyone who's a great competitor can be capable of
I meant Angela Rummans level meaning "fits fairly well onto the show and does well in competitions". Someone that's Kyland-esque.
I have no frame of reference for Big Brother, other than a ton of BB23 were on USA1 and were fairly unimpressive, a ton of BB24 were on USA2 and were just okay, and the two episodes I saw of BB25, I hated everyone.
God I would actually trade a few years off of my life if it means I could erase all my memory about Big Brother. I'm so jealous of the ones who never even bothered to watch a season

Mackenzie from the new season could be similar to Angela, young and was a D1 volleyball player

I hate everything I've seen of Big Brother. The Challenge castmembers that have come from there vary from fairly weak to horrible, with very few exceptions (Angela, Alyssa, Kyland).

Da'vonne is the main exception to me, but imo she's transcended BB long ago. It's honestly strong hit or strong miss. Da'vonne and Bayleigh fit in perfectly, but Kaycee and Friends literally ruined the show and now the fake, lowkey, and safe style of gameplay tainted the way this show is usually ran.
I might be in the minority here, but I welcome a rookie-heavy season.
What's clear is that production doesn't trust their rookies. S39 is a prime example with all the gimmicky format that production did not trust that the rookies can just carry a regular season.
Even in a season that's has more of a 50/50 vet to rookie ratio production prefers to show us the same tired vet storyline like Jordan and Tori than dive into newer relationships. AND then they wonder why the mass doesn't want a rookie, but its because they never build them up to be new characters.
Listen Idk if it was actually fun but the basic gist was that the OGs won because the new eras cried like babies after the OGs retailated. I wondered if they did the toilet seat prank again or something stupid like that

The only way they could try that is if they did All Stars as the existing people and tried to create a new era show but that won't work on MTV. Those with cable likely want to see CT John Jonna Laurel Cara and even Tori and Jordan. They don't want random 20 somethings

There's a video of it on The Challenge Instagram account. They were sling shotting items back and forth. Cool video; should have been shown. Instead we got that messy, weird, awful edit.
Sucks that wasn't shown on either episodes. This is battle of the ears and you're not going to show a prank between OGs and newer casts! I'm not one that's against the competition side of the show, but also give us some fun house dynamics, not just eliminations and dailies, and hookups that I'm starting to care less and less about.

I think 3 teams USA2 format will work beautifully, like Oldschooler said. You get a group of 12 champs, 12 contenders (vets that haven't won), and 12 rookies.
A group of 36 is logisitically possible because they just did 40 and if you have two double boot rounds, you're down to 32 after week one, exactly where we are now on 40.
12 rookies and one third of the cast being rookies is a good balance on getting new blood in while not being completely overwhelmingly new. Also if you split the champs from the vets contenders and both from the rookies, there's a better chance the cream of the rookie class rises to the top and not picked off.

ty!!! Ive tuned out their social media accounts lately because its usually clips from the show. I didnt realize they were posting unreleased ones !
Think Kristen White from Viewer's Revenge will finally make her long awaited anticipated debut on the flagship for this season?!
I hope so.
<3
Did she even get onto the RV lol? Pair with Angel somehow!
lol nope - I remember I wanted her to cause she was from two towns over from my college at the time. I think she got in one big mission at the end but that was it. But yeah to get Angel back let's use them both! Lol
An 80k increase is significant. The Challenge has been absolute shit since Total Madness. More and more people are ditching cable and there's no other way to view it. So the fact that they were able to bring back 80k is impressive.
i'm hoping they'll take this in consideration with casting and start casting more old school people - a solid mix is good for a season
Tina, Katie, and Rachel look younger than all the season 39 and era 4 girls (minus Ravyn, Nurys) so they should keep casting them.
I don't think Katie or Kellyanne will commit to a flagship again that isn't them deliberately knowing they are going home/throwing by the end of Week 3.
I think just stick with the regular format of 20-25% rookies. The late 30s seasons were doing too much with too many rookies, no rookies, 39 where they acted like they wanted to build up new faces only for all the marketing to be about the champs coming in. A cast of 32 should be like 8 rookies, 8-10 returnees who are still trying to make a name(1-2 prior seasons plus people from international versions and WC), and the rest vets and surprise returns
@Pink, can you shed some light on this? Anything you may know that we don't? Assuming you can reveal it, ofc. Would not be surprised if you knew something that you cannot reveal for reasons.
Pink, Hausey asked very nicely! Please and thank you!!!
I don't see the issue in discussing it as long as we keep it civil and cordial, the topic at hand is sensitive imo. However if Pink wants us to stop then we should stop.

I agree. I think this is a good cast ratio going forward.

bananas and mark said they had a really fun prank war but clearly mark is gone so we wont see it
God I would actually trade a few years off of my life if it means I could erase all my memory about Big Brother. I'm so jealous of the ones who never even bothered to watch a season
Every time someone says they never watched a BB season an angel gets their wings

They smoking weed on the challenge again? Ive havent heard about them smoking in yearssss
IMG_6232.jpeg
There was a "RAW" lighter .. like the "RAW" papers. How they would procure smokeables in Vietnam, though, is the real question...
I forgot a screenshot lol

Any chance for Michaela to be on this or are her challenge days over
Seems like it's her choice not to film for so long. If we get another USA season we'll probably see her
I agree. I think this is a good cast ratio going forward.
WE. WANT. MICHAELAAAAA!
