In Brazil the reality show was launched through the Globo network, which purchased the show in 2002. Big Brother Brazil Big Brother Brazil, known as BBB was a huge successful show, with the highest ratings in the brazillian television’s history on the final program of Season One. Then the Globo created a new season the following year, and a new season every year with a total of twenty-one seasons.
The reality show is telecast across more than 60 countries, how do you see the popularity of these shows? Plus: how do you see it viewed across the globe? Let’s find out.
Brazil
Let’s begin with our beloved BBB It is the members of a group ranging between 12 and 20, it is contingent on the season. They are locked to a home for a few months, typically two and a half months or three. When the weeks go through, the houseguests get exiled one per week until the endof the week, at which point the winner gets one and half million reais however in the beginning it was half a million. The people decide who gets exiled, based on the rules of the game. the leader who is the winner of the leader competition during the week picks one person to be evicted and the rest guests choose one or two persons to be evicted. Brazillians are the ones to decide. The sport is characterised by lots of dynamism and twists that add the intensity of the game.
Big Brother Brasil 18 had the longest contest ever. It was 43 hours long and was cancelled due to Kaysar as well as Ana Clara’s condition. guests who attended the show, declared it tied.
United States
The Americans have had 22 editions of Big Brother and the success is greater than the one here. Americans are glued to watching Big Brother, but the game is completely that is different here: The public is able to vote a few times on the twists in the game and in the final season , America selects the houseguest of the year who is awarded 25 thousand dollars. This is different from the winner who is awarded one million dollars, however , that winner isn’t selected by public vote however, it is decided by jury’s votes. WHAT??? Yes On Big Brother US the person known as the leader is the head of the household and has the obligation to choose two people for expulsion and the houseguests decide who is evicted and out of their homes. A few of the houseguests will form the jury which will decide who is the winner of the show at the final night.
Canada
Big Brother Canada is very well-known, and people from other nations stop to catch the show. it has seven seasons of the reality show Canada as it was canceled in 2020 due to the covid-19 pandemic. The gameplay is very similar to Big Brother Us, where the head of the household selects two houseguests to be exiled and the houseguests take on the work of evicting. The jury house counts also, the winner will receive 100 thousand dollars from Canada. There is also the night that three at least three houseguests are kicked out of the house! It’s the night of triple eviction. The guest is expelled and then a new head of household is identified however, three individuals are nominated, as well as two are going to say goodbye to the other. An extremely wild night, indeed.
Australia
Australia is currently on the 12th season, despite that Australia did not have seasons until 2014. The land of kangaroos the dynamics were very like Brazil and Brazil, with the viewers making the decision on who would be kicked out and who would be the winner. The only difference is that the 2020 season of Big Brother Australia decided to follow the same format as Canada and the USA in the USA and Canada.
Italy
In Italy the show is given an additional designation: Grande Fratello and it’s split into two types of formats: Grande Fratello and Grande Fratello VIP. The houseguests of the first are unidentified, and those in the second format are famous people including sub-stars and artists, former reality stars and so on. Brazillians have participated on Grande Fratello Vip, including the current season “Grande Fratello VIP 5” as well as the brazilian Dayane Mello, who’s taking too much part into the arena.
Did You Know? There is a version of Big Brother Kosova VIP coming in Fall 2022…!
Nigeria
The final Big Brother we are going to watch more of is Big Brother Naija, from Nigeria. Houseguests compete for an amount of cash that is 85 million Nigerian Naira.The premiere of the show was in 2006 but the poor ratings drove the show unwatchable on Nigerian tv until the year 2017 when the show was relaunched on a brand new Network and has since become an enormous success, even outside of the nation. In this instance, the dynamics are quite different. The household members choose two of them to expel and the public chooses who is going to leave. Sometimes, the people vote for all house guests with the exception of the head of the household. The head decides on who will be chosen and in this manner guests decide the one who goes home.
It’s interesting to note that a reality show franchise has been an international hit in many countries, and over many years! I love every one of them, and watch almost all of them LOL.
