Oh, well dude, I've been saying THAT for YEARS now, dating back to Cambodia! Yes, Cambodia was still a good season, but it was the first of many, what I like to call, "kitchen sink" seasons, where the producers basically throw in every single thing they possibly can, including the kitchen sink. This is a problem that's been in the last several seasons now, from a million tribe swaps to twists on idols, to extra votes or stolen votes, to the "legacy," etc., etc. I think you're a bit late to this criticism train, but hey, better late than never, right?

And I guess we just fundamentally disagree on the cast then. As you know, I LOVE Troyzan, Brad, Andrea, and I'm glad they went far, while others I loved - like Tony and Malcolm - didn't make it far, even if that was to be expected. I actually kinda agree with most of the people you had problems with - such as Sierra (why?) and Ozzy (barf).

But I feel the attempt at multiple gimmicks does influence the casting; look how Blood vs. Water 2 turned out, and because they cast those people specifically FOR the BvW theme, look what we got: One of the worst casts and worst seasons of all time. That said, I can't possibly imagine what they're gonna do for...sigh..."Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers." (F***ing shoot me). If it's an all-new cast, then whoop-de-frickin'-do; we're just gonna have to ASSUME that Johnny Fanboy over here is a hero because hey, his tribe name says so!!! And if it's yet ANOTHER all-returnee season, then at this point, other than a very select few people (like Marty or Russell), I don't care who comes back - THIS many all-returnee seasons in such a short timespan is absurd.
