OT - Derek X & Claire on Amazing Race

I didn't know that Claire and Derek were going to be part of this season for sure (read a couple of rumors here and there, but didn't really see anything credible about it), so I was really excited to see it. I think they will make a killer team on the show. I hope they make it far. They are 2 people I would also like to see play BB again in the future because they were stuck on a season where they had no chance to play on an even playing field.

I saw that they were on this show. Didn't know they were a couple now. I usually get through the first few episode when this runs and then lose interest. It all depends on if likeable people are left and they haven't really had anyone likeable the past few seasons, although if I remember, this is the first season in a couple of years due to Covid.

While I never like returning houseguests in BB, I wouldn't mind these two, but htey would either need to go all returnees, or at least make it half and half so you have an instant divided house

I didn't know they were dating either. I thought Claire was gay, but either I remembered incorrectly or maybe she is bisexual and I didn't remember that. Anyway, they make a cut couple and they did well in the first episode.

Yes, half and half returnees and newbies would be great, but only if they are just an even playing field, no 3 or 4 weeks of safety for ANYONE. Just straight up play the damn game.
