Season Stats

Ratings - The Pitts special edition

Downs are here to stay unless/until they remove the ban on BBViewer. That's probably corporate's doing and not a BB decision, but we still lose no matter what the cause. Especially since a lot of staffers use BBViewer themselves. This show is not like any other and should get a little consideration. Dr Gloria Underwood Officially Chief Medical Officer here at The Pitts, she's usually more concerned about saving (making) money than in making improvements for her customers, the public, despite how many areas could use improvement.
Won: Time Capsule 1: Six days egg HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 1   Angela Murray - 52 Instagram - TikTok Married, 4 kids, 3 grandkids - BB and TAR veteran Real estate agent Syracuse, UT (orig Long Beach, CA) Monica Peters A retired laid-off hospital clerk, she was replaced by technology but called back into action when the power went off and nobody knew how to do anything by hand. She had a no-nonsense attitude and helped get them through a crisis, but ruffled a lot of feathers along the way.	Won: Nothing yet HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 2   Barrett Pfeiffer - 27 Bluesky - Instagram - TikTok - Our Reality podcast Single - fan applicant, feedster Jumbotron engineer Austin, TX (orig Benton, AR) James Ogilvie One of the new student doctors, he's extremely book-smart but makes some blunders when he tries to put his knowledge into action. Barrett's people skills are better than Ogilvie's, but they're both tall.
Won: Time Capsule 3: BB Bribe HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 1   Dianelys "Dee" Valladares - 29 Instagram - TikTok Single - Survivor and Challenge vet Travel influencer - Miami, FL Dana Evans People think Dr Robby's in charge but it's really ER charge nurse Dana who runs everything, and both of them know it. That unspoken truth keeps their constant bantering lively, but in check.	Won: Time Capsule 2: Diamond veto HOH 1 - Veto 1 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 2   Rick Devens - 42 Twitter - Bluesky - Instagram Married, 2 kids - Survivor vet News anchor (formerly, now college comms director) Macon, GA Dr Michael 'Robby' Robinavitch He's the boss and the well of knowledge and experience that everyone draws on. It's extremely draining for him but he soldiers on because the kids need him. Also, see Dee.
Won: Week 4 Block Buster HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 2   Drew Campbell - 22 Instagram - TikTok Single - fan applicant Surgical dental assistant Temecula, CA Dr Dennis Whitaker He had a rough start and some days everything goes wrong for him. He's in debt, short of coin, and it often feels like destiny is against him. He's young and inexperienced, but he carries on anyway and he often shows more empathy and understanding than many of them.	Won: Week 5 Block Buster HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 2/0/0 - HN 1   Haley Thogmartin - 29 Instagram Single - recruit Telemedicine exec Wildwood, MO (orig Neosho, MO) Dr Yolanda Garcia She's a trauma surgeon who's based on some other floor than everyone else, but she's often called in for consultations. She usually has very difficult days, and she's often grouchy and usually humorless. She's smarter than everyone else, and she won't let any of them forget that.
Won: Nothing yet HOH 1 - Veto 1 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 2   Kamuela 'Kamu' Kirk - 32 Twitter - Instagram Single - fan applicant? MMA fighter Phoenix, AZ An empty hamster wheel before someone's evicted or otherwise leaves means I've put them on ignore, and won't be listening to them or reporting what they do or say unless it's pertinent to season events. In my opinion, this guy is a nasty piece of work who should never have been cast, and I don't want to give him more of my time, energy, or bandwidth than I already have. For The Pitts purposes: Dr Frank Langdon He made some bad decisions in the past that got him in trouble, but he doesn't think he should have to keep answering for them. He's technically good at what he does, but he's a little too high on himself to be very valuable to anyone else.	Won: Nothing yet HOH 1 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 1   LaTrice Verrett - 57 58 Instagram Divorced, 4 kids - fan applicant, feedster Boutique sales Maplewood, NJ (orig Kankakee, IL) Dr Baran Al-Hashimi She came in to substitute for Dr Robby so he can go crash his motorcycle somewhere, and she immediately started putting new procedures in place. Her methods are often better than what The Pitts has been doing, but she still rubs some people the wrong way.
Won: Time Capsule 4: 2 days Adam Eve and Eve; Week 3 Block Buster HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 2/0/0 - HN 1   Mallory Aurichio - 24 Instagram Single Rocket scientist Township of Washington, NJ Dr Melissa 'Mel' King She's capable and intelligent, and she comes across a little mousy at first, but she brings a unique and interesting combination of skill set and life experience that's often effective and just what's needed. It's not rocket science, it's just doctoring.	Won: Time Capsule 5: 24 hours Lady of the Latrine; 2 days Adam Eve and Eve with Mallory HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 2/0/0 - HN 1   Melody Morris - 24 Instagram - Comedy Instagram Single? - recruit? Corporate game show host (and stand-up comic) Maricopa, AZ (orig Thornton, CO) Dr Trinity Santos She's often loud, cussy, sometimes abrasive, and usually over-confident, and she assigns nicknames to her peers that aren't necessarily complimentary, and they stick. Her bedside manner isn't great and she works hard to disguise her vulnerability, but is usually unsuccessful at doing that. Let her know if you need to find a restroom.
Won: Nothing yet HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 2/0/0 - HN 2   Taylor Brown - 27 Instagram Single - fan applicant Elementary school counselor Deerfield Beach, FL Dr Cassie McKay She's highly capable despite a number of obstacles in her path. There's more to her than meets the eye, and she's continually surprising people with her talent and dedication because they didn't have high expectations of her.	Won: Week 1 Block Buster HOH 1 - Veto 1 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 1   Yash Patel - 24 Instagram Single - recruit Financial analyst Monroe Township, NJ Larry Aldridge He's a medical assistant who isn't intimidated by all the better-educated, higher-paid people around him. Instead, he'll be the guy wagering on inappropriate bets and goofing off in the corner between tasks, and nearly everyone likes him.
Won: Week 1 Safety HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/0/0 - HN 2   Chuk Anyanwu - 27 Instagram Single - recruit Supply chain analyst Dallas, TX 5th evicted - Day 38 Obit to follow The ambulance drivers and EMTs deliver a lot of The Pitts' patients, who then become the storylines, and those drivers and EMTs are completely forgotten until the next sirens pull up.	Won: Nothing HOH 0 - Veto 1 - Noms 2/1/0 - HN 1   Lyric Medeiros - 25 Instagram - TikTok - Twitch Single - applicant to other shows Attorney Honolulu, HI 4th evicted - Day 31 She started out a two-trick pony between her dad's 80s hit and her education credentials, but she soon branched out to showmancer deluxe. She and Rome got into it faster than most and were smackier than some, but it didn't last long before she was on her own. She might have been a good player but she promised too much to too many and when those notes were compared, she was toast. She won the bowlerina-esque veto to save herself, and her eviction ended up being a pivotal moment and game-changer, but not because of anything she did. She was fun when she got goony and I found her mostly likeable, especially when she talked normally, but the babygirl voice got her results more than it should have.
Won: Week 1 Safety; Week 2 Block Buster HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 1/1/0 - HN 1   Jason De Puy - 35 Twitter - Instagram - TikTok Pre-BB26 part 1 - part 2 - Reality press event as Ainsley Single - BB fan/pre-season test run veteran Drag queen - West Hollywood, CA (orig San Francisco, CA) 3rd evicted - Day 24 He wasn't grouped with the other reality vets and he downplayed Salina's celebrity, and I respect that he did this as Jason without the built-in advantages of being a known entity. But he messed up the first week when he announced he wanted to go after those three, and it got back to them while they were in power. He compounded that when he admitted to several that his sincere-sounding bond with Angela was fake, and that got back to her. But it all resulted in a hilariously explosive noms ceremony, and he topped that with his teakettle-clanging after Kamu attacked him at Mallory's tea party. Yes he was a messy bitch but he was also genuine, vulnerable, funny, and easily my star of the season.	Won: Week 1 Safety HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/1/0 - HN 1   Jack 'Rome' Seymour - 28 Twitter - Instagram - Trash Instagram Single - recruit Pickleball coach Delray Beach, FL (orig Traverse City, MI) 2nd evicted - Day 17 If you took all the brojock buffoons we've ever had and rolled them into one, you'd get a cartoon character named Jack who decided he'd rather be called Rome. He fell fast and hard for Lyric and maybe she did for him too, and he cry-sobbed for hours with no tears. He acted like he thought he was the star of the show, but his early exit indicates otherwise.
Won: Nothing HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/1/0 - HN 0   Ashley Trail - 24 Twitter - Instagram Single - applicant Bartender (and actormodel) Chicago, IL (orig Alton, IL) 1st evicted - Day 10 She was an NPC at first, but many always are in the first days. She tried to get in the game when she went on the block as a renom but it was too late and she did it badly, so she's now a charter member of the not-so-illustrious first evicted club. She said she'd never had a hamburger before (how is that possible?) but now she has, so her time here wasn't a total loss.	Won: Hot lava bath HOH 0 - Veto 0 - Noms 0/0/0 - HN 0   Rachel Reilly - 41 Instagram Married, 2 kids - three-time BB veteran Casting agent Hoover, AL (orig Concord, NC via Las Vegas, NV) Eliminated via volcano - Day 1 She came in dramatically after (almost) everyone else again, dressed in red again, but this time she was there for a stunt. We've had a couple other fake move-ins before - think Anthony Scaramucci on Celebs 2 or human Ainsley (Cosette Rinab) on BB26. Rachel had people going and thinking she was there as a player but no: 175 million years ago, a dinosaur carried her off and threw her into a volcano before she even got to play a comp or invent a new catchphrase.
