The time is finally upon us! Yesterday marks the official beginning of Big Brother 19 with cast reveal!. The cast is comprised of 16 new house guests that have a wide range of age and diversity. The BB fandom has been up in arms today about this new cast. Some love it, some hate it, but personally I think it is a great cast. Based off of the bios and interviews with Big Jeff today, all of these players seem actually pretty smart. They feel real unlike house guests from the previous two seasons. Those seasons had a lot of people playing up to the cameras and trying to be that crazy character that America would fall in love with. This year there are a few of those, but even they generally seem like they aren't total buffoons. One of the great things about this cast too is I really think any of these house guests could win. In fact, I am even hesitant to make a winner pick right now just because I think the playing field is going to be so level.

This is how I am going to do these cast reviews this week. Instead of just jamming everyone's all into one piece making it overly long. I am going to be doing two a day. I think that will serve nicely and then I will repost them the day of the premiere.

Josh Martinez, 23, Haircare Sale You know how I said that all of these people had somewhat level heads? Well this is the one exception. This guy was absolutely all over the place in his interview. Josh is down to lie and backstab to get to the money. His game plan is to align with someone that isn't impulsive like him so they can reel him back a little bit. He also thinks he doesn't have any weaknesses. Well buddy, I hate to tell you, but you as a whole are a weakness when it comes to Big Brother. This guy is going to be such a beautiful train wreck in this house. He is pretty much the only one out of this cast that is so eager to get to play. Everyone knows that in the BB house, you really have to take your time easing into the game. If you come out guns a blazing then you are going to be the first one evicted. This will most likely be the case for Josh. If he wins, HoH first though, which isn't out of the realm of possibility, buckle your seat belts because this guy is going to go on such a power trip. If this guy doesn't go first or second this season, than I will be shocked. Either way, this guy is going to provide us with a great week or two of feeds.

Jillian Parker, 24, Time Share Sales Rep I am a little torn on Jillian. I really loved her personality and I think she could be really fun this season. She is going to rely on her social game to get her far because she doesn't think she will be the best at the physical challenges, but her mind that is a-okay. Her plan will be to align with both the girls and the guys, but her main loyalty will be on the guys. This will help keep her safe and she will have all of these meat shields in front of her. The problem is it seems that everyone wants to play a similar game. The girls mostly said that they want to align with the strong guys and almost everyone wants to start the game off under the radar. There is too many people in this house that there is no way they will all be able to skate by. Will Jillian be one of those people that can pull it off? I think so. Jillian seems smart and knows how to work really well with people. I think she is going to try to steer clear of the drama, but she could be prone to fights just like her BB Idol Daniele Donato. Pre-game strategies hardly ever work out in the Big Brother house, but I think Jillian is on the right track.
