BIG BROTHER, the perennial summer reality hit, will return for its 13th edition next summer on the CBS Television Network.

This summer’s 12th edition of BIG BROTHER is posting year-to-year increases, up +5% in viewers (7.64 million vs. 7.26 million).

“Big Brother is our summer hero,” said Jennifer Bresnan, executive vice president, alternative programming, CBS Entertainment. “Every year, our producers deliver innovative twists and turns, consistently evolving this proven franchise and engaging one of the most loyal and interactive fan bases on television and online.”

    I am 32yr old father and husband. i feel like i have a good personality for this show and get along with people very well. Some of my friends call me the politician and can talk to almost anyone. if you put me in a social setting, i feel like i will get along with anyone, but some people don’t like that and may want conflict. for this show i feel like i would fit right in.

    I am a 31 years old, with a checkered past and I assure you that you cannot find a person like me to be on Big Brother! My combination of intelligence and mental toughness, along with athletic strength is something that can (and most likely will) win Big Brother. I can assure you that turning me down would be a huge mistake for you producers

    Would love try something like this.. i am a single dad of two teenage boys. they live with me and visit their mom on school vacations. it does’nt madder if you are a man or a woman. being a single parent is not easy. by doing something like this would show my boys. they can get through tuff times and its ok to try new things.. plus trying to win some money to help raise two strong young man would be a blessing.

    Thank you for listening

    I have never missed a single season of “BIG BROTHER” ever. I’m 49 from San Diego and sharp as a tack. I know I have what it takes to play this game. As a former MP in the Army I think I have a pretty good read on people. If I’m given a chance to play this game you won’t be disappointed.

    What moron wrote the headline on this? You state that a start date is confirmed. Yet, you don’t provide that date. Summer 2011 is not a date. It’s a time frame. Learn how to write.

    I’m a 41 year old female lesbian from Alabama. I love to play the mind games they play on Big Brother and I really think I could give anybody a run for their money. I make friends easy but I’m very cautious whom I trust. I have seen every single episode of Big Brother and most of them more than once. I also subscribe to Showtime so that I can watch afterdark..and subscribe on the internet so that I can chat with others and watch games after the show goes off. I would be a great choice to add a little spice to the show…..and I would would even love to be the sabateour!

    This photo is perfect! There is no disnirbutg objects, the windling road is really intriguing, the sky is very dramatic, the colors and the fog are amazing! Very nice contrast between the serene impression of fog and extremely dynamic expression of the sky. I would LOVE to see this photo on onexposure. It’s an easy case of screener’s favourites which means you will get a great deal of exposure and a lot of new visitors to your photoblog. Thanks so much for your contributiong and we hope to see more of your work! Take care!
