Big Brother 25 debate: How many days will it be?
For the time being, though, let’s talk season length, given that this is a topic that often does generate a lot of discussion. In the old days, the bulk of the seasons for the show ran in the 70-85 day range, with the latter feeling more like a sweet spot. It was enough time to get to know a lot of the players without any parts of the season feeling too rushed. This was perfected further in the most recent years, where we got feeds on the very first night.
For those who haven’t heard as of yet, we will be recording Big Brother 25 videos this summer! To go along with this, we’ve launched a Patreon where you’ll be able to see some exclusive content after the premiere. There is also content up now on Survivor, and we appreciate your support!
However, there was a period of time (think from Big Brother 16 to Big Brother 21) where we were seeing the show in the 96-99 day range. There were times we appreciated this, but then there were also the days late in the season where there were only three or four people in the house and nothing was happening. We wish the show would keep people around longer and then shorten that part of the season, and maybe they will this time.
While CBS has not officially confirmed the length of season 25 just yet, signs point to at least 82-85 days … but don’t be shocked if we go back to 99. There are no signs at present that the writers’ strike is going to be wrapped up soon and with that, the network needs money wherever they can get it. This show not only generates ratings, but also a ton of Paramount+ subscriptions thanks to people watching the live feeds.
