Storyline

Based on the Dutch series, thirteen strangers who are living in a studio-like house that's filled with cameras and microphones, compete in a series of physical and mental stunts, and some challenging trivia at a chance at $500,000 in this reality soap opera-like summer program. Thirteen of those house guests live in 13 different states. America will watch every single move they compete to be the last one standing, after having twelve house guests evicted. These strangers are the contestants who think they have absolutely nothing in common, and a few are in a shock for their lives. The house guests begin to introduce other people at the Big Brother house. It's the first time they will get to know each other and they're not allowed to say not one word with them until they are in the Big Brother house. The thirteen will be living in the same house for the following two months. They may either find their best friend or worst enemy in that group; and in the end, it's one men for themselves...

Will Kirby: Okay. Traditionally, the uh, nominees uh speak to the veto holder individually because they're looking for one person to help them. But if it's okay with George, the power of veto holder and James, the HoH holder, I'd like to speak to the house as a group.

Better than "Survivor"
18 July 2000 | by (USA) – See all my reviews

"Big Brother" is MUCH better than "Survivor". It's kind of like MTV's "The Real World" and I LOVE that show. You never get bored watching it and it's cool that you can call and vote people out instead of having them randomly pick someone to leave. And I like how you can watch it on the website bigbrother2000.com 24/7. Almost all of them are likable-with the exception of William who's-how can I say this without using any obscenities?- a jerk. I hope that he gets kicked out of the house next Thursday (I already called to kick him out-if you haven't you should). I'm rooting for Josh (hot!) or Jamie to win. This is a great show and I reccemend it to anyone who likes watching other people's lives.
