I watch just some seasons - and the current one clicked with me from the get-go, therefore I've watched all the episodes so far.

People I don't at all remember having seen (though perhaps one or two of them I may have) before this season are Keesha, David, Nicole A, and Da'vonne, while Enzo and Christmas I think I just very barely recall. It's been nice that the vast majority in the house this summer are whatever extent of familiar - several whom I remember very well.

I was sorry to see Janelle get evicted earlier tonight, as she's I think always been my #1 fave HG, ever since she originally appeared years ago.

I totally agree with you, that this season of all-stars has an overall good mix; I've been enjoying them, and the season.

Btw, here's a link to the CBS page that shows the HGs' pictures, names, and bios.

So we've got another all-star season and I'm wondering what you think about the HGs that have been chosen? IMHO I think they chose a well rounded cast from all the seasons. Except for Keesha, they were people I instantly recognized from their respective season, and some who I felt deserved a second chance. There are some who I figured would instantly gravitate to each other (Kaysar and Janelle, Da'Vonne and Bayleigh, Nicole A and Ian).

One thing I don't like is how some people are playing it safe because they don't want to ruffle feathers too soon in the competition. Memphis is a perfect example, constantly throwing competitions so he doesn't reveal which side of the house he's on.

Also Julie constantly ending the Thursday live episodes with a "moral" quote is irritating. Plus that BLM segment with Da'vonne was REALLY over the top, CBS trying to show some wokeness to the audience 🙄.

This does seem like it's going to be a good season, for now at least

Big Brother is an interesting concept, but it mostly seems like such a huge commitment to watch the show. I mostly watch if theres someone hot on the cast. Ive seen three season of Big Brother Canada, three seasons of Big Brother USA and one season of Celebrity Big Brother UK. This season, I like Nicole F play style and Cody is hot lol. to me its a bit weird casting David, who was the first boot of his season, and wasnt really memorable. What would've been more fun is to watch a whole season of winners.

Yeah, ele, I, too, found it perplexing that David was/is considered an "all-star" warranting inclusion in this season! An all-star should - I think in any viewer's opinion - be someone who made it to Final 3 (or no less than Final 4 or so) in their season(s)!

I continue to enjoy this season, and have been finding it one of the seasons I've liked most, and (so far) have never been at all bored.

It was sad, in Thursday's episode, Cody getting news (not only on-camera, but via a written letter rather than in some more personal, less alone, way) of his grandfather's passing.
