Miss so much since World of BB closed so thought a thread for random news was in order.

BB Greece returned this year - plenty of clips on their official YouTube but posting the finale here as it begins with a look at the house which I love - a simple layout but looks so good and all that's needed really. Hideous logo though but the titles work quite well.

And after 2 hours 27 minutes they announce the winner. Well it's 2 hours 31 minutes actually - a ridiculously long 4 minute tension pause!

Not sure if this is allowed but is there any downloads of the international big brothers season like in the Australia section?
So like UK, Canada USA?

Streaming wise if VideoBrother is still around they had a pretty decent selection of BBCAN and UK. US you’d be best to get a VPN and a Paramount+ subscription.
 
For the US version, lots of the older seasons (2 - 18 and CBB2) have been uploaded to YouTube and rather surprisingly, CBS hasn't blocked them within the last two years:

American strangers, cut off from the outside world, coexist in an isolated house.

Thank you, never even thought to check Youtube, just assumed it wouldnt be on there
 
Germany is moving back to the studio complex they've used until a couple of years ago with rumours being that there will be some sort of divide again. With the move back to the old location, the live audience will be back, too.
 
Always feel with Germany the twist is when there isn't a divide. They must have had more house locations than any other version.
 
Yeah, we had lots of different locations. Most of them are quite close to each other with them being either within the MMC studios or next to them. But even with Celebrity Big Brother, they've been moving around the studio complex a bit.

I'm a bit surprised that they might go back to a divided house. Fans complain online, but the general audience didn't seem to mind (at least when it comes to the ratings). It didn't work for the civilian versions.. so maybe they'll give it another shot and hope that a divided house will make the civilian version more popular.
 
Grands Fratello returns on Monday and apparently, they want to do some back to basics approach with simpler living conditions like in the first season.

They also releases a documentary on the first season. It’s somewhat geo-blocked though, asking people to sign up for their international subscription service. But it’s free to watch if you’re in Italy.

Grande Fratello - L'inizio: Grande Fratello - L'inizio Video | Mediaset Infinity

"Grande Fratello - L'inizio" ripercorre le origini del reality show che il 14 settembre 2000 ha rivoluzionato la TV italiana. Un viaggio nel tempo per rivivere i momenti piĂč iconici della prima edizione attraverso il racconto dei protagonisti e della conduttrice Daria Bignardi.

Yes, annoyingly up until last season you could still watch most content on the GF website but for some reason they decided to start geo-blocking midway through.

With many versions now marking 25 years even more dumb BBAU didn't hold back a few months to relaunch 25 years after they began.

It has yet another new host.

I haven't seen it confirmed yet but rumour has it that there will be a VIP season right after the civilian season, with the previous host returning for the VIP season. Some sources say that he wasn't up for hosting the show for another 6+ months, which is why they broke it down into two separate seasons. The previous civilian seasons have already mixed famous and non-famous housemates.
 
Part of the new house for Promi Big Brother, which right now is more a shell of a house then a finished house:

There are two showers.. one inside with only cold water and somebody needs to turn a wheel for the water to run. One is outside, which provides hot water if somebody operates some machine. Two portable toilets plus one inside, which is only for the site manager, this year's HoH-kind of position. Not all celebrities will have a mattress inside the building, some have to sleep outside and it's up to the housemates to decide. People still have to stay up all night, but this time have to watch over a camp fire (like on I'm a Celebrity) instead of pressing a button every 10 minutes. During the daily live shows, they can earn money and spend them in the shop. So pretty similar setup and rules to the last two seasons.

Rumours regarding a second area/house were confirmed though, images will be revealed on Monday's show. I would assume that the second area is above the current one, which would explain the staircase.

Show starts Saturday afternoon on the feeds, when 12 people move in. Another three will move in on Monday's TV show - including one celebrity that takes part for the second time.
 
Germany now has its own Bree moment:

Apparently there was a technical issue with last night's eviction vote, so Andrej, the evicted housemate, was sent back in earlier today. They've also put all remaining housemates up for eviction last night, which is why that voting was stopped as well and now re-started with Andrej being part of the vote as well.

There's also been some rumours about faking the votes earlier this week. One of the housemates, Désirée, was scheduled to appear at the Frankfurt Book Fair on Saturday. She was evicted on Friday after them doing a chain and safety and the only two-way vote of the season.

Ratings are slightly up from the previous year though, so the channel will be happy.
