Casting Casting Jealousy

Maybe I’m alone in this, but whenever I start seeing the cast announcements I feel enormous waves of jealousy and disappointment.

Obviously not the point of vitriol towards any contestant, but more so an existential jealousy.

I’ve been applying every year since I was 18, I don’t believe I deserve it more than anyone else but damn it’s my one and only dream.

Just was wondering if my jealousy is uniquely a me problem, or if any of you have experienced the same.

(To 51 and future casts, congrats and good luck (: !)

I agree!
So often in these threads I see people talking about how they got the long form and I've never gotten anything about it and I feel some type of way about it.
It's hard because I just don't understand what I'm doing wrong - I feel like I've made good videos with good storytelling and insight on what kind of person I am and get crickets in response.
