I wanted to this season to be all new players, boy was I wrong. I'm hoping for All Stars 2 next season. Bring back the brigade, Jeff and Jordan, even Jesse, idc this season sucked so bad.

Respectuflly disagree. Sick of Jeff and Jordan, Mr Pectacular, Rachel/Brendan, Dick/Danielle, Boogie, Janelle. Even tired of Dan. Take all those repeat offenders off, and I'm not sure you have enough contestants for a true All-Stars season (and no more mixed new and old, please).

The season hasn't sucked because it's all new players; it's because of what new players were cast (and even then I'd argue there have been some thoroughly entertaining eliminations and moments). Producers/casting director need to get off their asses and work to cast a better season. Perhaps the type of person who wants to be in this show limits the variety or depth of characters they can find, but I really doubt it. I guess it's difficult to determine how cast members will act when all put together, but that's casting's entire job.

Also, find folks you don't need to coach in the diary room or feed lines to. Maybe I'm just projecting my own thoughts but viewers like contestants who at least feel like real people. I'm sick of folks shouting their diary room sessions to try and be exciting (Judd, Chef Joe, Helen, etc. etc.), using cheesy, prepared dialog (Amanda, Helen again), or not being able to communicate like a human being (Elissa).

Is it really that difficult to find 12 -16 people who fit that very simple mold?

This! I can't stand listening to these scripted diary sessions anymore. They need some people that are interesting enough that they don't have to do this.

Another thing I don't like is all these shout outs that people are giving during their last speech on the live eviction show. We get it, you have family and friends that you haven't seen in awhile. Completely makes the rest of the speech (as if it already wasn't) pointless.
