Two episodes will be broadcast every Thursday night with the third episode possibly airing on Tuesdays. Why can’t we get imported versions as well?

“Big Brother joins the roster of fresh new programming on Global. With Survivor premiering Feb 7th, the Apprentice in full swing and a list of premiere movies and dramas on Global this month, Big Brother is the perfect addition to this powerhouse schedule.
