Big Brother Canada Season 8 Announces Cast (With A Twist)

 

Canadian reality series Big Brother Canada will be premiering in just a few days. Ahead of its eighth season premiere, the 16 cast members for the season have been announced on Twitter, along with a surprise for the audience.

Hosted by Canadian television personality and radio host Arisa Cox, Big Brother Canada has been a big hit for Global TV since it premiered in February 2013. The series always runs in the spring, premiering in late February or early March and wrapping up in May before Big Brother starts its summer season in the U.S. Big Brother, which is based on a Dutch series, now has franchises all over the world and has expanded to even include Celebrity Big Brother seasons, but fans often argue about whether the Canadian or America version of the series is best. Fans are ready to meet the cast of the upcoming series.

On Wednesday, Feb. 26, Big Brother Canada announced the cast (via Twitter) for the upcoming eighth season of the show, and they hinted at what the theme for the season would be. John Luke Kieper, 22, from Kamloops, British Columbia, is the youngest contestant and 44-year-old Carol Rosher from Nanaimo, British Columbia, is the oldest in the house. Of the 16 houseguests, seven of them are from Ontario and four are from British Columbia. In previous seasons, Big Brother Canada has been criticized for picking so many contestants from Ontario and so few from other provinces. While there's a handful from the West Coast provinces this year, only one contestant — 26-year-old Vanessa Clements from Mill River, Prince Edward Island — is from the East Coast of Canada. A bio was tweeted out about each contestant which included information such as their age, occupation, relationship status, zodiac sign and a gif of themselves reimagined as a superhero in a comic book — an indicator that the theme of the overall season. So what's the twist?

Big Brother Canada is known for their twists and this year they've announced their first twist before the season has even premiered. Less than an hour after the cast was released on Twitter, it was announced that voting was open for fans to select the contestant they want to save from the first eviction, purely based on the cast bios and introductory videos. Depending on how the power is presented or used during the first episode, whichever player receives the safety could end up with a huge target on their back. Fans were torn about if they wanted to give it to someone they liked or someone who gave them a bad first impression. Voting has now closed and the results will presumably be revealed during the premiere episode.

In 2017, the Canadian network that owns Big Brother Canada announced they'd be cancelling the series. But due to an overwhelming response from the public, they continued the show for season six and onwards. Canadians love their Big Brother and many super fans of the U.S. series have said they enjoy the Canadian series more than the American because of the complex challenges and crazy design that goes into the house. With one twist already under their belt, the season is sure to be an exciting one.
