This will be a shake up for sure. I'm excited.
I think the rules will change as well. My guess was that was what they meant by new era, but I could be wrong.
It didn't make sense for them to put in older players, it's clear nine is going for young viewers. And they are succeeding well in that goal. I bet the young housemates are getting a lot more votes than the others on the whole.
Can't wait to see what happens. I hope the old housemates don't get to just choose 1 each, like before, or however that worked last year with Nathan quitting just to get out of there.
I didn't like the intruders last year, but I liked the housemates. Not a fan of anyone this year really.
