US Big Brother is much more about gameplay, unlike UK BB. It airs in the Summer schedule which means it always has little competition and they only have three episodes a week. That's why it always does so well, it will outlive UK BB because people aren't bored of it. I don't think the US format would work over here though, it was tried for a brief period in BB9 with the head of household and taking a nominee down, also again last year with Save and Replace otherwise known as the Veto competition in BBUS and it didn't work.
