Big Brother Canada
 
Well Big Brother Canada is airing in 2013
anyone else so excited?
it will be following the format of BB US. Should be a great, back to basics first season with none of grod*****s rigging

reece(: 10-08-2012 03:09 PM

I'm just happy she's not involved as she's already ruined one BB format

Roy Mars III 10-08-2012 03:10 PM

yea, excited for it

brisbanebroncos 10-08-2012 03:27 PM

Fantastic!

Macie Lightfoot 10-08-2012 09:08 PM

brisbanebroncos, how can one like Dick, Boogie, Adam, and Frank from BBUS?

CaPPa 20-08-2012 06:05 AM

After watching every season of BB UK, Celebrity BB, BB USA and several seasons of BB Australia I'm really looking forward to BB Canada (as it's where I live).

I'd like to audition for it but I'm not sure that I would do very well in the American format.

BBGermany 04-09-2012 10:16 PM

It's going to be so Americanised.
If they follow the US version it shouldn't be called Big Brother.
=(

BBfanUSA 04-09-2012 11:14 PM

BBUSA has influenced others to take a spin on the US ideas' like talking about noms and changing noms after they've been revealed.

Think about it, It deserves to be called Big Brother

The US version is far more like "Big Brother" than the UK version today - mainly thanks to the live feeds. It's the only version which has kept multiple live feeds over the years, rather than cutting back to just the one, then none at all, at the first opportunity.

DrunkerThanMoses 01-10-2012 12:02 PM

I cant wait, it will be like having two seasons of big brother usa a year :)

yeah but there's constant accusations of rigging (Only 1 time that you'd have to be an idiot to not agree with but then again the gal was an idiot for opening Pandora's Box), then again with some of the even worse bullcrap that's happened on the UK version. The US version is still better than the UK version.

Even if the US version goes to fishies every 5 minutes.

Portugal still has it.

The Backyard will be completely inside and they'll simulate Day and Night. There's a tour of the house currently in construction right now inside this link by Reality Nation

LemonJam 20-11-2012 01:25 AM

the backyard is indoors?! that's so brutal :laugh:

BBfanUSA 22-11-2012 01:53 PM

And I saw a pic of the BY they're building. There's pool in the middle of the backyard and the ceiling's pretty low. I'd thought it would be two stories.

Over 10,000 people auditioned for it and it's confirmed that only 14 hopefuls will win keys.

House currently being worked on

It would be nice if they did something a little different to BBUS :/

BBfanUSA 12-12-2012 02:11 PM

Official Launch Date is Feb 27th 2013

BBC will have it's own After Dark. Officially confirmed.

_Seth 12-12-2012 02:20 PM

What's After Dark? An Adults Only Uncut show?

After Dark is where they broadcast 3 hours of feeds (Sometimes live sometimes not) every night in America. Probably here as well.

DrunkerThanMoses 18-01-2013 09:49 PM

Apparently the live feeds will be free to watch

Munchkins 18-01-2013 09:52 PM

So so so excited

DrunkerThanMoses 19-01-2013 11:50 AM

Not sure if the live feeds will be blocked in uk/us, hopefully not

BBfanUSA 20-01-2013 12:20 AM

Hollywood Reporter said it will be geo blocked. I guess Youtube will have to do. Still jealous that their feeds are free.

newsbb 24-01-2013 12:12 AM

im excited about another country taking the bbusa format!

jyunga 24-01-2013 07:30 PM

As a Canadian I love the fact so many people on here outside of Canada plan to watch this. Very exciting and I hope it's successful enough to keep it going. It would be awesome to have Big Brother during the winter in Canada and summer in US/UK each year.

Petershaw1984 30-01-2013 08:45 AM

any house pics out there?

BBfanUSA 30-01-2013 02:26 PM

other than it being under construction, no nothing.

The layout looks like it's similar to the US house to some people but I think there will be some modifications here and there.

Tickets to our first four live evictions on Feb 28, Mar 7, 14 & 21 are now available!

If you are interested in attending, please contact bbcaudience@insighttv.com with the subject line: Big Brother Canada Tickets for [Date Requested].

Please include your name, email address, phone number & number of tickets requested in the body of your email.

Please note that we cannot guarantee tickets, you must be able to travel to the Greater Toronto Area and the minimum age is 11.
Tickets are now on sale. There's an eviction on Day 2 or 3 apparently.

In a commercial there will be 15 entering, so having a early eviction makes sense.

I can't wait for the Canadian BB.

I'm a big fan of the Real Housewives franchise here in the US (especially Atlanta and Beverly Hills), and when i heard Canada was gonna do a Canadian version (real housewives of vancouver) i was skeptical, but it turned out to be great, and it's on the same channel (Slice) so hopefully Slice doesn't disappoint.

I'll definitely be watching. I really hope our Canadian friends will be uploading the eps and keeping the rest of us updated.

Does anyone know if the live feeds will be free to people in the US as well? we let Canadians watch BBUS, so it's only fair that they let us watch BBCAN plzzz.

Pretty sure I read that only Canadians get the free feeds sorry

racist bastards. :(

jyunga 11-02-2013 05:24 AM

Woot free feds. I heard the winner only gets $100k? I hope they keep it that low and use lots of money from advertises to keep feeds and stuff free!
