Thoughts on the early Big Brother 26 applications
Rumors about a winter season of Big Brother began surfacing at the beginning of the Writers Strike.
With no new episodes of scripted comedies or dramas, CBS has relied heavily on reality and game shows.
Big Brother 25 received an extended season. The BB25 cast is participating in the longest season in history.
And the new season of Survivor has 90-minute episodes. It debuts in September 2023.
After the fall shows end, CBS will have to roll out new content this winter to keep viewership numbers up.
This would be the perfect opportunity to start a new season of Big Brother during the cold winter months.
Having the BB26 begin playing the game in January could be a nice treat for Big Brother fans.
No matter when the new season debuts, it’s a positive sign about the franchise that producers are already working on the BB26 cast.
