A look at the Big Brother past

Many Big Brother highlights will be shown during the night. Using archival footage from each of the 24 seasons, ET will explore the notable showmances, biggest feuds, and shocking twists.

If something was historic for the show, it is expected to be featured in this look back. It could also lead to fans wanting to re-watch classic seasons from the past. To do so, they can be streamed on Paramount+, Hulu, and Netflix.

Details for Big Brother 25

At the end of the hour, fans will get to look ahead to what happens next in the Big Brother house.

It has been advertised that fans will get a sneak peek of the new Big Brother house and that there are clues about the summer’s big twist. The release date for the BB25 cast names comes later, but this special will excite viewers about the Summer 2023 season.
