CBS
After weeks of rumors that Big Brother would actually happen this summer,
CBS finally confirmed that the 22nd edition will be back with its second All-Star edition on August 5th.
The house will be filled with winners, finalists, legends, memorable personalities, and some of the best to never win the game. Who are they? That is something we will find out closer to the premiere date.
CBS also wanted to let us know they will be following safety protocols so that none of the houseguests nor the crew will get sick with COVID-19. The press release says, “Houseguests will undergo a quarantine period prior to production and will be tested several times prior to entering the House. Once inside, they will be tested weekly during the season and have no contact with any crew members, and all supplies delivered will be disinfected. In addition, the live show will not have a studio audience.”
When it comes to the people behind the scenes, “All staff and crew members will be tested prior to commencing work on a regular basis, as well as screened daily for symptoms. They’ll be required to wear PPE and will work in pods to enhance social distancing. In addition, a COVID-19 compliance officer will be on staff to monitor and enforce all health and safety COVID-19 protocols.”
Remember the good old days when all they had to worry about was drinking too much? Hopefully, they will still be worrying about that. That is what makes the live feeds so much more fun.
Now, people have something to watch 24 hours a day when we eventually go back into lockdown. In a way, we are living Big Brother but without the cameras. Oh wait, wouldn’t Zoom be our cameras? Who knew we were living the show since March? But we have. At least now we can watch other people going through what we are going through.
It was probably easy to get the All-Stars to sign on. CBS is like do you want to get away from the people you are living with to live with other people you don’t know. Who wouldn’t jump at that offer?
Which former houseguests do you want to move back into the house?
