BB people always seem to operate on accelerated time in their relationships. They have been together less than a year but I guess people have gotten engaged faster than that too. And after spending every day with the person for 3 months you do get to know them pretty well.

I’m watching the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Making the Team season with Kat and it’s so weird to hear her same voice but with a totally different face.

The way it is described, I don't automatically HATE the teams idea but I am also not thrilled about it. I want a throwback old school season. All new houseguests, POV, food competitions. No diamond vetos or weird shit like that. I don't mind a few twists but it gets excessive.

They saying their reasoning behind the teams is to avoid the big alliance that has happened the last few season and I can respect that. Obviously, never know how it's going to work out till they go!

The interview says the team captains get to choose their teams which makes me think there is going to be a team of the big strong white bros for sure.

Picking based off looks alone is rough. Hopefully there's more to it than that. Otherwise they are just asking for a repeat of when Michie banished all minorities night 1.

mathlete, you're not wrong. I really hope it doesn't go that way. TPTB just don't think their choices all the way through sometimes SMH

The producers said that they get a little bit about each house guest I think before they choose? I am hoping that means more than just the photo.

I wish they had to choose their teams The Voice style, or something like that. Or pick from a list of random facts about the HGs or something.

They did the teams thing on BBCAN this past season with pretty great success - although I think a lot of that had to do with casting. But. It was a great season AND they made the team captains the old people that were easy to be picked off first - and both of them went super far in the game. I think without the teams, they would’ve been easy goners the first 2 weeks.
So. I remain hopeful

I keep waiting on the cast pictures to get released so I can get my podcasts back. They’ve gotta be there by now, right?

Yes, I see this going that way for sure, at least for one of the teams.

It sounded like from the article that the captains will be chosen by competitions, so I'm not feeling great that it will work out the same. But I would like to be pleasantly surprised!

Eyeroll at them acting like they are doing the fans a favor, as if them releasing the cast at least week before the premiere isn’t how it always happens.

But still confused about their "live premiere". If we're watching them move in live vs just getting to see them do a comp live. Some years they spend several days in the house before the premiere. So it's easier to release the cast early. I'm assuming covid protocols and quarentines had an effect this year.

Wow this actually might be a promising season. I spot at least 9 people that look visibly POC if not more that are perhaps not as obvious. I'm not thrilled that everyone is in their 20s for the most part but at least the diversity of race is more addressed.

For the first time in a few years I'm gonna let myself look forward to the new season. Cautiously optimistic lol

I hope they stick to it being an all new cast. No surprises of any old players coming in part way!
