TORONTO, Jan. 21, 2019 /CNW/ - Big Brother Canada is back! Global announced today the seventh season of its monster hit reality series Big Brother Canada premieres Wednesday, March 6 at 7 p.m. ET/PT. The reality juggernaut returns to Global's schedule three nights a week on Wednesdays at 7 p.m. ET/PT, Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT, and Sundays at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Hosted by Arisa Cox, the award-winning series takes viewers on a wild ride filled with socially savvy, and not so savvy, houseguests, unpredictable twists, unforgettable challenges, and jaw-dropping drama.
"We are so proud to be ushering in an all-new season of Big Brother Canada on Global," said Maria Hale, Senior Vice President, Global Entertainment & Content Acquisition, Corus Entertainment. "With a new house and a whole new crop of houseguests, we can't wait to bring viewers another hit season of the show they can't get enough of. Growing its audience year over year, we take great pride in creating an unforgettable season filled with epic TV moments and even more snackable digital content for our hungry viewers."
Following a coast-to-coast casting call, Big Brother Canada plucks a group of hand-picked strangers from their homes, sequesters them from the outside world, and places them inside a house outfitted wall-to-wall with cameras and microphones that capture their every move. Competing for a grand cash prize, each week the houseguests battle in a series of challenges that give them power or punishment, voting each other out until the fate of the final two is decided by a jury of fellow houseguests.
"We have planned the most epic and exciting season of Big Brother Canada and cannot wait to share it with our amazing fans," said Executive Producer & SVP Erin Brock. "What we have in store for our batch of houseguests in Season 7 will be a wildly exciting ride that viewers will be talking about all season long!"
Additional details about Season 7 of Big Brother Canada, including this season's theme, houseguests, and the grand prize details, will be announced in the coming weeks.
In anticipation of the premiere, fans can stream their favourite moments from Season 6 on GlobalTV.com, Global GO (now available on Apple TV, Google Chromecast, and Amazon Fire TV) and stay updated on all things #BBCAN7 on BigBrotherCanada.ca. For Season 7, viewers can stream Big Brother Canada live on GlobalTV.com and Global GO by signing in with their TV service provider credentials or catch up the next day on GlobalTV.com, Global GO, and BigBrotherCanada.ca.
