Hard to imagine, but Big Brother is back for its 25th Season. Every year it returns, I think to my self, I cant watch this time, but then their I am every Sunday, Wednesday and Thursday tuning in to see who wins HOH, who wins the Golden Power of Veto, and who gets sent packing. After all these years, I still find the show fascinating and addicting. Just as a public service announcement to all those who are casual fans, or who are late to the party, here is a list of all the Winners of Big Brother starting in July of 2000

I have been their from the beginning, but scanning through this list, even I have trouble remembering some of the past winners and runners up. Of the ones that I remember and really liked, some of my favorites were Dr. Will Kirby, Mike “Boogie” Malin, Dick “Evil Dick” Donato, The great Dan Gheesling, Rachel Reilly, Derick Levasseur, Nicole Franzel, and Cody Calafiore

But there are also players that I remember and rooted for that were eliminated before the final 2. Here are those who stood out to me (aka – I see or hear there names, and instantly get a picture of them in my head.

Season 1 George Allen Boswell (Chicken George)
Season 3 Roddy Mancuso (Who is a Lehigh Graduate)
Season 6 Jannele Pierzina
Season 8 Daniele Donato
Season 11 Jeff Schroeder
Season 12 Vincenzo “Enzo” Palumbo
Season 13 Porsche Briggs
Season 14 Britney Haynes
Season 16 Frankie Grande
Season 17 Meaghan “Meg” Maley and John McGuire
Season 18 Paul Abrahamian
Season 19 Christmas Abbott
Season 20 Christopher “Swaggy C” Williams
Season 23 Derek Xiao and Claire Rehfuss (Who went on to win The Amazing Race)
Season 24 Matthew Turner

On one hand, I think to my self , What a colossal waste of time I have spent watching Big Brother, but on the other, I think of all the interesting people and situations I have been able to experience over the years from my living room. For that I am grateful to CBS, Julie Chen Moonves, and everybody else involved with Big Brother over the past 25 years. No matter how stupid the show can be at some times, its been a great ride, and I’m looking forward to this and future seasons.

Be Back later with more

Peace
