I Am Still Not Over Rachel’s Big Brother Exit, But It Got Me Thinking About One Future Thing I (Kind Of) Hope Happens

I am not often upset about a Big Brother eviction. It’s not that I don’t care; it’s just that I understand it’s the nature of the game. However, Rachel Reilly’s exit happened in such an extraordinary way that it still haunts me. Yes, there have been houseguests eliminated similarly, but not quite. Additionally, Rachel added so much to Big Brother Season 27. We felt the loss of her presence on Big Brother immediately. It also made me question the future of the hit CBS reality show.

As I continue to mourn her leaving, I have begun searching for a way that this elimination has some purpose. And not the purpose of just becoming a regular event in the Big Brother game. I want it to mean something positive for the show’s future. And I know just how this situation can be rectified in a future season.

I Am Now Open To Another Big Brother: All Stars Season

I never thought I would see the day when I wanted another Big Brother: All-Stars Season. I did not enjoy Big Brother Season 22, aka Big Brother: All-Stars 2, at all. It may be one of my least favorite seasons of all time. And yes, I have seen every Big Brother US season plus all of the spin-off shows. Therefore, you know the hate for that season was strong. Big Brother Season 7, aka Big Brother: All-Stars 1 is one of my favorite seasons ever. So, initially, I was really looking forward to another all-stars season, but I had some reservations.

In previous seasons, the returning player twists have not produced amazing results on Big Brother. Of course, there are always exceptions. Big Brother Season 14 was so entertaining because of the returning players, especially Dan Gheesling. However, the returning players from Season 18 and onward have produced predictable results on Big Brother US and Big Brother Canada. The returning players dominated these seasons in terms of screentime and longevity in the game.

Statistics show that they often make it to the final five and beyond. I wasn’t confident that Rachel would have the same fate, but I began to hope she could. I am usually a Live Feeds watcher who screams about how the newbies need to evict the returning players early. This changed for Big Brother Season 27. I was glad Rachel made it as far as she did in the game.

Her third appearance opened my mind to the potential of another all-stars season. It’s not something I expected to ever want to watch again, but now I would love to see a season full of returning players.

And I Would Love To See Rachel Return For A Fourth Time

I was someone who figured out the clues leading to the Rachel reveal as the 17th houseguest. I wasn’t happy about Rachel’s return to the game. I have never been a hater nor a fan. She was just someone important to the show, but not necessarily someone I cared about either way. I also must confess that I wasn’t a Live Feeds watcher during her two seasons. I only had the Big Brother episodes to go by when it came to her game.
