It'll be interesting to see an international edition follow the US format

[darraholic]

I would have liked to see us follow BBUK, but I'm kind of excited to see the US format without Grodner's dirty little hands on the show.

[JackPeyton]

Im so excited its the US format. I hate all other versions of the show.

[dm.]

I'll be watching.

[DRW50]

I love how she says Boogie was always three steps ahead. I think she missed some of last season.

I hope it does well. Is Slice considered a cable channel or broadcast?

[darraholic]

It is Cable. It's a division of Global Television. Slice is pretty successful though. It is also home to Real Housewives of Vancouver. Plus, I believe they are making Slice available for free for everyone in Canada for Big Brother.

*applauds*

Thank you, BB:CA. Unlike BBUSA, you all cast a heavily diverse cast with characters from all backgrounds instead of casting a token character or minority.

My only negative is no one from Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec, PEI, NFLD or the Territories.

[London]

Exactly NBA, when I saw their cast revealed I just thought to myself, what a beautiful diverse cast unlike US which has a smattering of blacks 1-2.
