Big Brother Sweden And Norway

Big Brother (Sweden and Norway) is a reality show shown on Kanal 5 in Sweden, and TV Norge in Norway, in which a number of contestants live in an isolated house trying to avoid being evicted by the public with the aim of winning a large cash prize at the end of the run. It is based on the Big Brother series produced by Endemol. From 2000 on seasons of Big Brother were shown in both Norway and Sweden and in both countries the show enjoyed very high ratings, so high that eventually the production teams of both began thinking about joining together to make one Big Brother show for both countries. So in 2005 they joined forces. The 2006 edition was also a co-production between Norwegian and Swedish Big Brother. For this season Adam Alsing left the show, and Hannah Rosander took over as the Swedish host. There was also a Big Brother Exchange Program with Big Brother as well. Following the second season in 2006 the show was cancelled in both Sweden and Norway.

Big Brother Sverige was the Swedish version of reality TV show Big Brother and was aired from 2000 to 2004 on Kanal 5 for four very successful seasons. In 2005 and 2006 it was merged with the Norwegian version of the show. A new season is scheduled to start in 2011 on TV11.
