I watch too much reality TV, have opinions and no regrets. Not many regrets. Some regrets. Ok, I, at times, severely question my life choices. #BigBrother #BBSky #Survivor #SurvivorAU #TheChallenge

On this non-Thanksgiving, I am grateful for all of the bloomfs on here who manage to walk and chew gum, meaning be invested in silly reality (competition) shows but still aware of the actual real life insanity we live in.
Why now?
No particular reason.
None.
Just *quoting any headline at all*

Dystopia Barbie (what an apt handle) has sadly missed the entire point of education. Itβ€˜s about broadening your horizon, learning new things to be a better human and thus also better at whatever you end up doing for a living.
Much love from a lighting designer with BAs in polysci and business πŸ™‚.

Happy bday, Amy!!
I shall catch up on #BBAU in your honour!

Same! I had only heard additionally that Ep 1 might come across as a little rough and violent at times, but that I should hang in there. And Iβ€˜m so, so glad I did!

Right? SO GOOD. The concept is amazing and Rhea Seehorn just outstanding.
Thank you, Vince Gilligan. Again.

I support Kirsten if only mainly for the proper spelling of β€žcolourβ€œ.

Like ok Jeffrey. You are on another planet. But then you FUCKING INCLUDE the invitation in the edit? Literally telling everyone that the previous 48 seasons weren’t worth providing deserving contestants for your 50th season? Unreal.

04.12.2025 21:37 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

The fact that we have THREE from 48 and two from 49 out of 49 seasons is beyond ridiculous. It’s a
parody.

Yes. Yes and yes. What Amy said.

04.12.2025 21:30 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Exactly. And if we hear the host (and I still cannot believe it happened on the aired show) tell his contestants that spots for S50 are open? What the hell is happening?!?

He is the King in his little kingdom. Pretty sure the podcast is not the only place where people praise his decisions…

Hit like purely for the correct plural.
Duh.

And the half-legends, half-new era reeks of β€žOk. We have to get some of the earlier people in but look at these amazing recent ones!! Weβ€˜ve done GOOD!!β€œ

I legit think Probst just LOVES his new era cult following. Thus also the hard line of kicking out whoever was communicating pre-season.

04.12.2025 21:02 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 2    πŸ“Œ 0

Casting two people from S49 onto S50 would have been a horrible call under any circumstances, but listening to podcasters in the past weeks do their utmost to tapdance around what they definitely know is just painful, sorry.
Everyone and their granny are spoiled.
Thanks Probst.

Also: Amy needs to continue watching. AU is the best therapy against this US thing they somehow keep on calling Survivor.

Fair point. Blood vs Water was ROUGH. But so was S01 with all of its mateship until Kristie saved us all with that spectacular finale.

03.12.2025 21:15 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 2    πŸ“Œ 0

And S01 is widely considered to be the worst of the modern AU seasons. Probst is so, so lost.

03.12.2025 08:40 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Yes but CJ and Josh are now married so we must watch. I don’t make the rules, sorry.

I for one am astounded that β€žVorganβ€ž didnβ€˜t make it, but am choosing to believe that β€žfeedsβ€œ is all us bloomfs.

The β€žyou have to EARN everythingβ€œ-stance is 100% designed to prove that the shorter season is still as hard or even harder. But since he is making a TV show, he has painted himself into a corner because his legit starving cast are falling apart and aren’t capable of playing the complicated game. A+.

And also: the only way to get these people to play was a possible invitation to the NEXT season.
WTF.

You are right. There has just been so much forced β€žemotionalβ€œ stuff on Probst’ part that I have trouble taking him seriously even if he is doing fine.

And also apparently almost entirely brown or beige. Delightful.

I don’t understand the question. Isn’t everyone at all times in the middle of a Gilmore Girls rewatch?

This is an A++++ pic and should start a whole marketing campaign featuring other BB players.
