Of course someone named Underwood was going to win a season with a come-back twist.

By the way, for those interested in how the cast looks when you replace the returning players with their corresponding placements in their original seasons, you get either:


 * John Carroll instead of Rob and Laura Morett instead of Russell if you use their first season.


 * Laura Morett (who replaced Russell in HvV) instead of Rob, and Dan Kay (who replaced Randy in HvV) instead of Russell if you use their most recent season.

In my opinion, the second method is the best one, because with the "first season" method, there's a loophole that makes it possible to have the same person twice in a season, and it's not possible with the "latest season" method. Of course, both methods have the problem of having an unbalanced cast, but it's something you always have to accept if you're into the "changing the cast" thing.
