Probably also depends on how many were fans vs recruits.
Makensy was obviously a recruit (middle age BB casters and recruiting Texas A&M people, don't know why that's a match).
Cam probably was too (he said nobody he knows watches BB, but also said one of his faves was Jared last season.....)
Someone like Quinn obviously was a big fan. Angela was a big fan too but idk if she applied or was recruited (she's been on other cbs game shows before). Kenny applied for years to be on, but it's like he said, his life when he first applied and his life today are so different, so it's hard to want to play the game now the way you wanted to when you first got inspired to apply.
Chelsie said she's a super fan and watched since she was 13. Crazy thing, that only means she's watched since BB 12 or 13 (probably why people in the house thought there's never been an all female F3). I wonder for BB and Survivor how that impacts things. While people can binge past seasons, even being a 10 year long fan still means you probably haven't seen a majority of the shows history.
I liked the cast and am happy with who won, but definitely feel like the gameplay and strategy lacked.
