I usually start to have favorites after four episodes. Sometimes I even have one after the premiere.

What are some examples though? It just seems like rose colored glasses.

I watched the Netflix seasons in parallel with these new ones and the cast was seriously not much better, except for some standouts like Coach, and All-Stars casts were obv better. The biggest difference is the locations and challenges and rewards and production in general was way better, which helps a lot in the first few episodes.

I mean in this season, we obviously have Carolyn who is very unique. Matt & Frannie are the first showmance in a really long time, which is significant. And right off the bat, Carson seemed pretty unique as a standard nerd archetype except he actually got super buff in a few months. It's the exact kind of spergness that should appeal perfectly to b8. He's even proven to actually be kinda dumb, and got tricked by Carolyn, which fits well with b8 too.

43's cast sucked for sure, but Gabler and Noelle were pretty fun to watch.

42 and 41 casts were solid too, but game design definitely got in the way for them.
