Big Brother Canada

I don't live in Canada unfortunately, but I'm hoping to watch this version online. I tried to watch CBBUK but I couldn't get into it.

Are Canadians already able to watch the US version (live on TV I mean)? If so, that's not fair that Canada (and other countries) are always able to watch US shows, but the US never shows non-American shows.

Yes, we get full access to all BB shows, 3 days a week, including live ones, and access to live feeds. We can also partake in polls and voting. The U.S. gets the rights to a lot of Canadian shows if they wish (Rookie Blue is Canadian made, but abc bought distributing rights). Canada and the U.S have shared tv rights for as long as i've known and broadcast most of them simultaneously. I'm sure if they want to show BBCanada in the states they can. The question just remains... do they want to invest in it?

Canada get access to all BB shows you said? Is that just US or does that include the other international versions? And I just mean there's a lot of non-US shows I would like to watch but can't because they either don't show them in the US or they do show them in the US but it's on channels I don't get.

I thougght you would be gung-ho for your version. Also, I think the USA version is okay but after what Julie is did to Holly Robinson and Lena concerning the Talk, I just can't stomach her narrating the USA version any more. In fact BB13 was like the last good season.

Sadly it doesn't work the other way around.

(gotta youtube that **** :P) If you wanna watch a show... torrent it. I know its not proper, but sometimes you have to if you have no other access.

BBCA Live feeds are free in Canada :D kind of stoked for this, even though they didnt pick me.

They'll probably make them free for the first season like they did in U.S. just to see how many people tune in to them, then start charging in future seasons

Didn't really like 13 very much, really lost interest midway through the season. BB6, BB14, BB10 > BB3, BB8 > BB5 > BB12 > BB2 > All Stars > BB9 > BB13 > BB4 > BB11 > BB

Basically she fired Holly Robinson Peete and Leah Remini because they were getting more fanbase than her. A lot of other shady **** went down too and she put Alicia Tyler who isn't even important, well not after 5th Wheel anyway onto the show. The other lady who is on there is okay but I just can't deny Julie's pettiness.

Just a reminder for everyone.... 9 DAYS!!! So pumped. :D [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNunTVv7zGw&feature=player_embedded]Big Brother Canada We'll Be Watching You - YouTube[/url] Btw, just like to point out how "Canadian" this promo is haha... lumberjacks, snow, tim hortons, construction? and obviously hockey... so stereotypical :P

Season 9 was a complete disaster from the get-go. They threw it together at the very last second due to the writer's strike and it was obvious they had no clue what they were doing. BB1 & BB9 are definitely the worse two. I can't even imagine a legit argument against that. BB4 was infinitely better than S9 even if you hate Jun, Alison and the rest of that cast.

oh yeah for sure!! BBUS is one of the more censored versions... UK has no shame in showing it all (well everything except full frontal lol).... i was so surprised too haha We just aren't accustomed to things like that yet, whereas they are (primetime british teen drama Skins even had nudity)

Haha the one down under, there basically exhibitionist. Ugh I really don't know why as North Americans (yes even Mexico) have such a hard time with nudity on TV. But I do need to check out skins, I've only seen the US one. :/

There was always something crazy going on in there! In terms of just entertainment, it's probably near the top. I'm not the biggest fan of that season, but I can totally see why some people would have it near the top.

How are you planning on watching this? Whenever it starts can you post a link or message me or something with however you are doing it?

I will be watching it on TV since I live in Canada haha... but i'll find a youtube channel that posts them... there's usually a few out there that do.

MEET THE CAST!!! It's all becoming so real! lmao One Week!! [url=http://o.canada.com/2013/02/20/big-brother-canada-meet-the-cast/#medium-job_fair-78570_tom]Big Brother Canada: Meet The Cast | canada.com[/url]

I'm actually more interested in seeing the house than the houseguests! I'm hoping it's more interesting than the US house! I'm actually really excited for this to start, I just hope I can finda a proxy that works so I can watch the feeds!!

your wish is my command: [URL="http://canada.bigbrothernetwork.com/big-brother-canada-house-tour-video/"]Big Brother Canada House Tour ? Video | Big Brother Canada[/URL] It's like a mix between the US house and the UK house... I like it!!

I think much more craziness would ensue.

I don't like the fact that the outside area really isn't outside. Apart from that, its looks pretty good.

[QUOTE=ILoveRW;334829]I don't like the fact that the outside area really isn't outside. Apart from that, its looks pretty good.[/QUOTE] Yeah, everything looked kinda crammed and closed in to me. I am curious as to what the secret room will be? HOH room, maybe?

Tonights the night!!! So pumped!! :D Not sure if this link will work for those of you not in Canada but its apparently a live stream for when it's on tonight. [url=http://www.bbnutters.com/bb-nutters-canada/]Big Brother Canada Stream - BB Nutters[/url] EDIT: Also the secret room was revealed to be an actual outdoors area with a hot tub, fireplace, and a lot of slushy snow lol [URL="http://www.tbbr.us/archives/5188"]http://www.tbbr.us/archives/5188[/URL]

Actually so far a lot better than I expected!! The cast is really diverse... BB's voice is kinda lame but all well I like the BB phone too.

I'm so happy I can watch the feeds. I thought people were saying we needed a different thing because I'm in America.

The quite gay guy is great, really sneaky.
