And I mean that Cambodia has infected Survivor with a heavy dose of a new direction for the show, with it being verrrry much about strategy 24/7. Because a lot of fans loved that direction, as did the producers, and so they went that way moving forward (after Kaoh Rong, of course).

BB13 is the same take. Just look at BB14. Look at 16. 18. OTT. 19.

Starting with BB8, the show began to get in its own way of being great. BB8 dipped its toe in the waters to see what they could pull off with an all-encompassing twist to reward the fan favorites, to create contrived narratives and gameplay for the sake of giving the audience 'what they want' (and the producers what they want, strong ratings).

BB13 was when the producers went all-in. It's Micronesia but with endless twists to favor the vets, to give the fans 'what they want' in spite of anything else happening in the house. The producers trivialized the show. Even the edit in BB13 was pretty bad, heavily tilted toward the vets, something most don't consider when discussing BB (except BBCAN6). They continued with BB14 and have never looked back.

I'll never forget how disappointed I was with BB13.
