We've never had two carryover contestants at the same time and they're both BBs!

That's true.
What gets me is how TPTB assume that their viewers never even notice little details like this, that there was a carryover contestant on Friday who
didn't return on Monday! All of Meredith's banter is prerecorded, so there's not a word of explanation. If a J! contestant is getting a break, at least Alex explains about special series coming up in between.

They didn't plan that. Remember the initial confusion about who was carrying over?

I know they didn't plan it. That's why it makes a mess of the schedule.

This is a first for syndicated Millionaire, but Super Millionaire had carryover contestants who overlapped the syndicated carryovers. The most notable was Scott Hoff, who was a carryover from February 27 to May 16, 2004. (I looked it up.)
