The host also explains why we no longer have segments featured the players' loved ones back home.
It’s been an entertaining, topsy-turvy season ofBig Brother.
Could that have something to do with the age of the contestants?

Not only that, but the cast has also featured five people in their 30s.
So is having a greater diversity in ages something hostJulie Chen Moonveswould like to continue to see moving forward?
“Absolutely,” the host tells EW.

“And look how long Felicia and Cirie have lasted.
I mean, they’re going to be in at least the final six.
And one of them will be in at least the final five if not taking it all the way.

JULIE CHEN MOONVES:There are no true alliances this season.
They are so disloyal to each other, other than Cirie and Jared.
I mean, Felicia is going up to Jag and throwing Cirie under the bus.

Matt went to give her a heads-up that Jag is onto her.
I mean, it’s so crazy.
They have to use every second for taped pieces and that’s it.”
So it’s a nice problem to have, but I do miss seeing that.
I wonder if we’re going to even have for the messages from home at least the tearjerker show?
I’m sure we will.
Maybe in the wrap-up show.
That’s why I prefer that over even past players.
Even if you bring in four past players as coaches, it’s not as fresh.
So I like to find new people and then I find it a compliment that other shows take them.
He was kind of like a team captain, but then he lost his team.
He could have rallied, and he seemed good at competitions.
He’s smart, he’s physical, but he didn’t have the personality.
She was passionate about the game and likable and had teammates, had people working with her.
He just needed to grow up a little bit.
So I would say Hisam or Izzy.
Reilly, maybe she could have been, but we didn’t get to see enough.
I don’t think she could handle the pressure of the power.
But you had Hisam at the beginning, and he was winning everything.
Then you hadCameronwinning everything, and now you have Jag winning everything.
It’s just like one comp beast replaces the other.
I’m waiting for someone else other than Jag to rise to the occasion.
So I’m waiting for, I don’t know, maybe Matt to emerge as that person.
She came in second in the POV, timing was good.
She’s got endurance holding on for so long, hanging, getting smacked in that spinning game.
So I’m waiting for another person to take some wins away from Jag.
Bowie Jane, because no one’s even thinking about her!
They have been so foolish to let her get by all these weeks.
No one’s necessarily gunning for her.
Felicia might be throwing her under the bus a little bit, but not necessarily gunning for her.
It’s her charm.
What is it like hostingBig Brotherin the fall as opposed to the summer?
I’m like, “Wait, we’re going to have Halloween in theBig Brotherhouse?”
Maybe I go as the Zingbot on the next live show.
I have no idea.
Expect the unexpected, right?
