It felt like they gave a lot of time to the new guys - they might actually be pretty good!
The new Weeknd tune is a banger. He's great.

They probably also realized that shutting out your new guys and easing them in over too long a period doesn't allow the audience to gain any feelings towards them which leads to stagnation and a feeling that recent cast turnover was poor.
They've made this mistake the past two big turnovers and likely realized they need to just jump in with new cast members and let them succeed or fail.
