Big Brother 2025 starts November 9 (Sunday) on 10

Ok forgive me, and correct me if I'm wrong... but didn't the channel 9 version promote live streams, and it turned out to just be Twitter updates? Or did they promote it as Live Updates? Can anyone shed light on that?

Live Updates is what my memory has in it.
 
So are they just running a month long series. Just to give us something because of the channel 7 thing. I feel like, other big brothers around the world have done the studio house build and deem the full on house build like the OG house unnecessary. I’d really like to see a purpose built house. I hope they get the viewing numbers to make it a bigger and longer show next year.
 
That whole promo reeks of channel 9 era 😅 enjoyed it though. I was keen for Nick to come back or a similar angry/deep BB, but I’m still optimistic. Leon was great for humour based seasons, hopefully it’s a mixture of humour and drama they’re going for.

Most are mad at the voice, I’m more mad about the BB Theme song being snubbed for a Billie Eilish song that came out almost 6 years ago.

True. The BB theme song should be playing instead.

“The Amazing Race” is set to end on October 20, so 10 will need filler programming for Oct 26/Oct 27 and Nov 2/Nov 3. Ideally, you would have wanted Big Brother to launch right away after The Amazing Race finishes, getting viewers to stick around in the same time slot. The 2-week gap is a bit of a worry. However, it would be awesome if they had a Big Brother retrospective special on the Sunday before (with Mel hosting, ex-housemates and Gretel speaking) but there is no evidence of any such special happening.
 
I think the use of Bad Guy is fine - the length of the promo means the original theme would not complement the playfulness of the promo between Mel & BB, they will run heaps of sharp short promos with the original theme

I’m so happy Leon’s back as BB. His version has sounded the best to me personally but hopefully more of a serious tone than the buddy buddy energy he gave in c9 era to the housemates

Yeah, that is the thing that doesn't make me that excited to have his voice back. Big Brother was occupied with being the housemate's mate rather than being an authority figure on the 9 series: The "family-friendly" vibes. If the Big Brother persona is more serious this time I'd be happy.

The Block finale airs October 26, so 10 probably wanted to avoid that.

We also now know the premiere will air at 7 pm on Sunday, interesting if it takes that slot during the week too.
