As for the BB17 cast of Houseguests, those are still being selected as announced by Big Brother Casting Director Robyn Kass. She confirmed that all applicants have now been notified and are in the running for future downselects moving to the final roster.
When CBS and Big Brother production make their final cast choices the HGs will be flown in to Los Angeles roughly the week ahead of entering the house. That’s Big Brother Network will be sitting down to talk with each of them for our preseason interviews a few days.
No details yet on the new house design or season 17 theme or twists, so if you read anything out there that sounds completely absurd then it probably is. We’ll get the official, reliable information.
Feeds will go live either the first or second premiere night of Big Brother 17 so you’ll want to be ready for that. New this season is the CBS All Access subscription service which offers the Big Brother Live Feeds, every episode of Big Brother ever, plus live TV streams to watch BB17 from your computer or mobile device. Check availability here for live CBS streams in select areas.
We’re waiting on Live Feed Early Bird sale details to find out if CBS will offer that up again this season or not. As soon as I get confirmation from CBS we’ll have that updated for you.
