Oh yes.....just wait.....
I think part of the disappointment with this season is that we already "know" these people. In seasons past,we got to know them a little more each week, and grew to like them/dislike them as each week went on. Today, we know them from the past and we pretty much have our minds made up of who we like and don't like, so the suspense of that is gone.However, I think there will be some surprises and we will probably alter our judgements.
For example, I never liked Marcellas in the past - too much the 'camera queen' for me. This time around, he's toned it down a bit (maybe "matured"?), not always upstaging the others for camera time, and I'm liking him more.
