Big Brother	comment	Big Brother is a groundbreaking Reality Show that started in the Netherlands in 1999, and has since spread around the world. There have been versions in the United States, South America, Australia, the Middle East (where it was canceled after ten days due to religious protests), Africa (where it caused a constitutional crisis in Malawi), throughout Europe, and (in Asia) India, briefly Thailand, the Philippines and Canada. However, by far the most famous version of the show is the British version, which was so popular that a Celebrity Edition was made. Brazil also had a Celebrity Edition, but it wasn't by the same network that held the broadcasting rights to Big Brother and wasn't different enough to avoid being Screwed by the Lawyers. Said edition was known as "Casa dos Artistas" (House of the Artists). The 2007 version of Celebrity Big Brother set the UK record for most complaints about a TV programme, mostly due to the Shilpa Shetty racism row.The premise is simple: lock several "ordinary" people in house, supply them with alcohol (you won't see this aspect much anymore due to the disasters that followed), and watch the results on omnipresent cameras. Viewers can watch the edited highlights in the evening, or watch it live on cable or the Internet. The public then proceed to vote them out every so often.The US version notably abandoned the public-voting-out after the first season; the public kept voting out the trouble-makers, who the producers saw as "more interesting" and wanted to keep, resulting in them switching to a more Survivor-like system where the house guests vote each other out. (This was later adopted by the Canadian version.) However, they must vote out one of two contestants nominated by a third contestant who won the "Head of Household" title that week. Therefore, there is less safety in the large, unconcealed alliances you see on Survivor. The change also meant that the show didn't have to manufacture drama purely by casting the looniest people alive.A common twist is a "Big Brother goes evil" or "Hell" twist, where Big Brother is psychologically abusive to the houseguests or where they are put in a bad environment.Among the numerous references to the show, it was homaged by the Doctor Who episode "Bad Wolf" with a dystopian future version where the contestants are disintegrated when they're voted out (this is often assumed to be a parody or a Take That! against Reality TV, but Word of God confirms it as a tribute); inspired the Mini Series Dead Set by Charlie Brooker, in which seven contestants and some of the show's backstage staff battle a Zombie Apocalypse; and additionally inspired Dead Famous, which turns the concept into a murder mystery. It's also often actually turned into Machinima; see SBB Brothers for just one example.Check out and help build the character sheet.Not to be confused with George Orwell's classic work Nineteen Eighty-Four, in which Big Brother represents the totalitarian Party that treats free thought as a crime. Its name is, however, based on the fact that in the book cameras are everywhere, with everyone being watched by "Big Brother", which is about all most people (think they) know about it. For information on that trope, see Big Brother Is Watching. For the trope on the totalitarian figure of "Big Brother" who may or may not exist, see Shadow Dictator.

Three were then told to guide a wand through a complex maze, and if it touched the metal, everyone would receive a minor shock. This was considered to be so memorable that it was released on the commemoration DVD.

The first unlucky housemate to suffer this fate opened an envelope delivered with the food, sending her to jail. Using lipstick, she made a sign saying "Big Brother is a Beast"; her stay in jail was extended, because she broke a rule about not writing in the house.

Big Brother / int_21889507	type	A House Divided
Big Brother / int_21889507	comment	A House Divided: Possibly the most famous instance was in Big Brother 2002 when the house was divided into two, the Rich Side and the Poor Side, with live tasks determining who would live on which side for a week. It was also seen in Big Brother 2006 during the Prison task, when the Prison wardens lived in the main house whilst the prisoners moved next door into a prison cell. Unbeknownst to the wardens, the prisoners were given instructions on how to find the secret hideaway. In the Celebrity version of the 2007 series, Jade Goody, her mother and her boyfriend entered the main house, and all bar Shilpa Shetty, Jermaine Jackson and Ken Russell moved into the servants quarters, as part of a Masters and Servants task which involved the servants waiting hand and foot on the Goody clan and the remaining celebrities in the main house, much to Donny Tourrete's dismay. This made somewhat of a comeback in Big Brother 2008, when there was a "Heaven" and a "Hell" side of the house. There are usually two main "warring" factions. One made up of the "underdogs", the other made up of "populars". Notable examples are Team Richard vs The Plastics (series 7), B Block vs The Whisper Club (series 9), and The Insiders vs The Outsiders (series 13, ironically, The Outsiders were much more popular with the public). In Big Brother 2004, the house featured Marco's Harem (Marco, Michelle, Nadia and Emma) vs the Jungle Cats (Victor, Jason, Ahmed and honorary member Stuart). The two factions, for the most part, hated each other and had a massive difference of ideals - the Harem were camp, loud, and always up for a party, while the Cats were serious about the game, moody, but more mature than the harem. The conflict between these two came to a magnificent climax on the legendary Fight Night, on which Jason threatened to knock Marco's block off, Nadia slapped Jason, and Emma and Victor threw platters at each other, resulting in Emma being thrown out of the house.

Big Brother / int_22a27b19	type	Alpha Bitch
Big Brother / int_22a27b19	comment	Alpha Bitch: One who fits the trope closest was Grace in series 7. She was relentlessly bitchy and snobby, and called housemates who were outside her clique "freaks". She had a Villainous Breakdown after hearing the audience loudly chanting "Get Grace Out!". It later became tradition for an unpopular housemate to have their name chanted in such a way, but at the time it was a shock to all the housemates that one of them could be so disliked by the public, not least Grace herself who sobbed that she had never been unpopular in her life. Helen Wood from BB15 and 16 embodied this trope TWICE! Her confrontational behaviour in BB15 caused her to receive multiple formal warnings for bullying and threatening other housemates. Viewers were ultimately shocked when she won the show. In BB16, Helen returned as a Time Warp housemate and displayed much of the same confrontational behaviour, arguing with Nikki Grahame and calling Brian Belo a 'paedophile' and a 'rapist' leading him to walk out of the show. Again, she received formal warnings for her actions and was subsequently banned from appearing on future BBUK series.

The grand prize was moot, and most of the house was heartbroken to say goodbye early.

Housemates narrow the voting-off list down to the least popular group of housemates, then they get voted off out of that group. The only exception was the first three evictions of season 8, where the voting public narrowed it down to three housemates that the housemates then had to vote to evict. The 2020 season moved to the US style of one housemate, the winner of a challenge, nominates housemates and the rest vote one out.

As of 2020, the American version is the longest-running one of them all, airing more than twenty seasons over two decades. Seasons 5 and 6 of Big Brother Germany deserve a mention for being long-runners unto themselves: they both lasted for one year before a winner was finally crowned. It was estimated by Guinness that the 24/7 broadcast of the house for season 5 currently holds the record for longest uninterrupted live broadcast.

It ended again with Season 19 in 2018, but once again it was picked up by ITV five years later, the finale ended with a voice announcing "Big Brother will get back to you".

Although the action was not visible, it was clear what he was doing. On another occasion, Gos pulled the duvet off him, yelling "stop wanking!". In series 6, the housemates were each given a large cardboard box, and tasked to stay in them for as long as they could. Moans of pleasure could be heard from a female housemate's box. This was not commented on much, but Davina tried to ask her about it.

Unbeknownst to her, the entire house saw her as she reasoned (out loud) that everyone in the house was out to get her and she might as well take the money. Though she said some pretty nasty things concerning the other houseguests, Sara at least agreed that most of it was right and that she was just angry.

Big Brother / int_6bf93fc7	comment	Fanservice: A lot of people watch it just because they are waiting for someone to take a shower. And the sole purpose of some challenges seems to be to get the contestants to show some skin. Wet T-Shirt contest in Big Brother Czech, anyone? Big Brother Brasil inserts more of this each year, to the point of suggesting oral sex under the couches. And there always will be a girl who "accidentally" exposes a critical area every now and then. Averted in one season of Big Brother Australia; one contestant insisted on wearing a bikini while bathing. So much so that "Jemma in the shower" became somewhat of a IRL Meme. The Dutch version contestants were smart enough to see this coming, and spent the first episode having a hot tub orgy. Really. In the ninth UK series, Dale and Stuart were given tasks seemingly for no reason other than to show off their torsos.

They made him wear ridiculous costumes for tasks and bought back evicted housemates he argued with. In the last few days leading up to his eviction they bought back Rachael. He bragged to the others about laying into her, but when he learned that she had hooked up with Nathan on the outside he literally started crying for his mummy. Most of the series for series 13 Luke S. He had curry powder put in his protein shake by Benedict, who told him that as a parting shot just before he left the house. After accusing Deana of being a golddigger, she countered that his relationship with Ashleigh was fake for the cameras. In a task he was fooled into thinking a phony talent agent was really interested in signing him, which saw him doing a photoshoot for a cheesy calender and saying that Ashleigh annoyed him and when he left the house he would rather be a player than in a relationship. Later he overheard Ashleigh complaining that he smelt of onions and implying that she fancied Conor more. Worst of all, he and Conor were in the White Room task and were told that if one of them pressed a button they would win Â£50,000 but would have to leave the house immediately and the other would get a free pass to the final. Conor had said a few days before that getting to the final was the most important thing to him, but he pressed the button a split second before Luke S, leaving him crying and kicking the furniture in anger. It didn't end there either. Conor said in his interview that despite being allies in the house he never liked Luke S much, and in the last week in the house Deana couldn't resist making jokes about Luke S not pressing the button. Then when it came to the final Luke S was out first and 'Push The Button' by the Sugababes was played as he exited the house. In BB15, Steven had a relationship with housemate Kimberly. They had sex several times in the house, much to the disgust of both housemates and viewers. On one particular occasion, Steven was heard telling Kimberly to "open it" leading to numerous internet memes and jokes from presenter Emma Willis. This was taken even further when Big Brother had Steven host a talk show called 'Opening Up With Steven' and the crowd began chanting "two second Steven" during evictions.

Naturally, this led to an internet campaign to keep him in until at least the second eviction. The trope was ultimately averted: McCririck was indeed the first person voted out (he wasn't the first person to leave, since Josie Gibson walked out the day before his eviction, but as McCririck himself pointed out, that wouldn't affect any bets on him being the first to be evicted by the public). Comedian Jack Dee attempted to escape the house every night during the first season of Celebrity Big Brother. Naturally, the public found this, along with his constantly morose demeanour, completely hilarious and he ended up winning the thing.

It might have been part of a task, but even so, him pretending to be a cat growling and licking cream out of the hands of actress Rula Lenska was one of the biggest UK car crash TV events ever, and it's still remembered to this day.

Big Brother / int_9e86e227	comment	The End... Or Is It?: The end of Season 8's final episode has the lights turning off on the now-empty house. A few cursory credits roll... and then the Big Brother eye turns back on, the theme music starts playing, and we go to the real credits. Most likely a nod to the fact that Big Brother Canada is not over, despite the 8th season being Cut Short.

Big Brother / int_9f4a47f2	comment	Competitive Balance: Cited by most viewers (and Peter and Gary) as the reason for he Head of Household in season 2, week 5, being Canada. The First Five alliance was in clear control of the house, and everyone else in the house was either too scared or two incompetent to make any kind of move against them. It was clear that the group was going to eliminate everyone else in the house and make it to the final five if nothing in the situation changed, which makes for pretty boring television. Banking on the (correct) idea that Canada was predicting the same boring game, the producers gave viewers a chance to to vote on who would be put up for eviction. Canada picked Andrew and Sabrina, two of the biggest players in the alliance and also generally the least liked for the season.

When the housemates had a spiritual-themed task, there was a montage of them waking up while some peaceful music was playing, only for it to quickly be shown from their reactions and a change in the show's audio that it was actually being played through the speakers in the bedroom. The same thing happened on the day when they had a police-themed task, this time with "Muder On The Dance Floor" playing. Then, when Big Brother announced that the remaing five housemates were finalists, some songs were played, which could have easily been mistaken for diagetic if the housemates hadn't been shown singing and dancing along to them.

Big Brother / int_b01abe4f	comment	Catchphrase: The second season of the French edition gave us immortal lines which are still quoted ten years later, even by people who never watched the show. Among the best: A mispronunciation of "thyme" followed by the candidate's explanation that he'd never seen the word written down before. A conversation on whether the word "ingenue" exists and an argument on whether it's the same as "a genius". And the classic "Je t'emmerde avec un grand A!", which literally means "Well, fuck you with a capital P!" No, that wasn't a joke. The candidate spelt the word "emmerde" with a capital a and the sound-bite was used over and over in commercials for the show. Also, Carlos Navarro from the second season of the Spanish series: "Â¡Te voy a meter dos yoyas que te van a temblar las orejas!" (approximately "I'm going to give you two slaps that will leave your ears shaking!"). His threat did never become a reality, though, since getting your hands on another contestant meant instant disqualification.

Coincidentally, (or maybe not so coincidentally), this ended up being Irish celebrity Louis Walsh.

Various tasks involved housemates being blindfolded: in series 5, they dressed as cows and were guided by fellow housemates (farmers) wielding cattle prods.

It was essentially an All Stars season within an All Stars season!

In fact, the "sent next door" twist had been done so many times that in the 12th UK series, nominees Anton and Jay were secretly moved to the Big Brother Crypt, as they were "dead to the housemates". Despite the others being told that they had been evicted from the house they managed to suss that they were in fact living in a secret room.

Big Brother / int_d9eee868	comment	Spinoff: Usually of the Companion Show variety: The UK series has most notably had: Big Brother's Little Brother, a BB news fanzine; Big Brother's Big Mouth, a BB public opinion/talk show; Big Brother Live, live streaming from the house; and Diary Room Uncut, in which notable Diary Room conversations were played in full. With the show's move to Channel 5, a new spinoff known as Big Brother's Bit on the Side exists: it functions similarly to BBLB and Big Mouth six days of the week, and on Sundays it's a quiz show. Also on C4 there was "Big Brother's Big Brain" and "Big Brother On The Coach", both of which were psychology shows. As well as a podcast "Big Brother's Big Ears". The US version had Big Brother After Dark, a 3-hour block of live streaming from the house that aired on Showtime and then Pop TV. Until Season 11, the US version also had House Calls, a internet call-in show featuring the latest evictee of that week. The Australian version had: Live Nominations, which broadcast the housemates' nominations live; Uncut/Adults Only, which broadcast material that didn't fit the PG rating; UpLate, which was live streaming from the house late at night; and Friday Night Live, which had the housemates competing in a series of games for prizes (both gameplay bonuses and tangible prizes). In its final season, the Australian version adopted Big Mouth from the UK version. There have also been celebrity editions of the show, which sometimes become more popular than the regular editions.

A platonic version, also from season 3, was the Newport alliance between Zach and Jordan. Though they managed to not make any big waves, most people realized that they were close early on in the game, and their attempt to make it look like they weren't together any more (namely, Zach nominating Jordan as a pawn) only convinced the others more.

On the original Dutch format and the popular UK version, evictions (and ultimately, winners) are determined by an audience vote, whereas in the American version note from the second season onwards and the ones that follow it, all evictions and winners are determined by the houseguests themselves. That being said, you'll often have an "America's Vote" poll to determine various factors within the game, most notably "America's Favorite Houseguest", who receives a cash prize in addition to the winner and runner-up.

Mario had to act as Big Brother's 'Mole' for the first few weeks, completing sabotage tasks for them. After a few weeks the housemates would be informed there was a mole in the house and had to vote who they thought it was - with Mario risking being kicked out if he was discovered. To make it extra obvious, they made him enter in a mole costume (although he wasn't required to wear it after that). He managed to not only avoid being pegged as the mole, his genuine and nice persona meant that even after Big Brother revealed who it was no one really held it against him.

Big Brother / int_e96fe76d	comment	Hobbes Was Right: More so in the American format than the original Dutch version, which incentives strategy and manipulation. While there are exceptions, generally the houseguests that do the best are the ones that are ruthless in their gameplay and manipulate others to further their own advancement. By contrast, houseguests who play nice and friendly better be good at competitions, or else they'll either be dominated by the controlling houseguests or find themselves in their crosshairs. Some houseguests try to strike a balance, being friendly while manipulating people, but it's usually for gameplay purposes; they don't want to make enemies and need allies to play the numbers game when it's time to evict.

Big Brother / int_eb8ec7c8	comment	Jerkass: Due to the vote to evict, they usually bit the dust as soon as they were on the block. Now the voting system has changed to "vote to save", controversial characters (such as The Shannon Twins) manage to survive longer (even make the final). But, in the end, good usually wins. Of course, that depends on who you view as "good", as the majority have "jerkass" moments now and again. Alexandra and Dennis deserve special mention - Alexandra's actions got her kicked out, followed quickly by Dennis. Big Brother is more than willing to allow Jerkass characters to stay around for entertainment, but there are lines you should never ever cross. Averted with Helen in BB15, despite being bullying and controversial behaviour, ended up winning the show, much to the baffled public. Also averted with Stephen Bear in Celebrity Big Brother 18, who won the show despite angering every single housemate that series, being incredibly aggressive, cheating on his girlfriend and being up for eviction nearly every week. Marc in BB16 was very open about his jerkass nature, saying before he went in the show he was expecting that no one would like him. He deliberately goaded his housemates into conflict, trashed the house, made comments on female housemates' weight and struck up an alliance with Helen Wood. His late appearance and behaviour vastly improved ratings that series and he ended up getting a pretty good reception from viewers.

Naturally, this led to an internet campaign to keep him in until at least the second eviction. The trope was ultimately averted: McCririck was indeed the first person voted out (he wasn't the first person to leave, since Josie Gibson walked out the day before his eviction, but as McCririck himself pointed out, that wouldn't affect any bets on him being the first to be evicted by the public).
