Season 39 was one of the worst seasons ever, and likely resulted in us being denied Richard Hatch’s presence on the Winners at War season, but maybe that’s just as well given his All-stars performance.
I love, love, love the cast for this season. For a fan of the show since the beginning, this is an “Avengers” moment, as seeing Yul and Jeremy and Adam, etc. interact with Tyson, Boston Rob, Parvati, etc. is like seeing Thor meet Hulk and Iron Man. So many potentially interesting dynamics, and they did an amazing job getting such a strong list of winners. The “out of the game” pre-show alliances will hopefully help to offset the most strategic and dynamic characters being eliminated immediately. Once players get their feet under them a bit, I think the dynamics will take a life of their own.
I love Yul - what a great start for him.
