‘Big Brother 17’ Spoilers: Cast Info Given By CBS In New ‘BB17’ Promos?


Big Brother 17 spoilers might actually have some teeth now. The latest BB17 spoilers may be cast information from CBS as well, with the network possibly tipping its hand during a new commercial. Big Brother 17 doesn’t debut until later in June, but a promo running on Thursday (June 11) provides some key words that will bend the ears of fans. One fan of the show posted a video of the commercial on Twitter, sharing that key information with other fans of Big Brother.

So what is this big news that can be classified as Big Brother 17 spoilers? After host Julie Chen speaks for a few seconds about the show, the announcer gives reasons to watch the show this summer. He states “new houseguests” and “bigger and better twists” are coming. The key takeaway from this commercial is that they use the phrase “new houseguests” to describe the competitors. This likely brings an end to the BB17 rumors about an All-Star season taking place. While it doesn’t rule out that a few returners could be in the house again, it does suggest that most or all of the houseguests are going to be new.

This is a big deal, especially with how well Big Brother 16 did with viewers. During each of the three weekly time slots that Big Brother 16 had in 2014, it brought home the highest ratings. That’s three “wins” for CBS each week, likely convincing producers that it would be a good idea to bring on another (completely) new cast. Now it is certainly possible that network executives added some of the information to the promo and that producers of the show didn’t intend to release these facts. But it is also equally believable that producers dropped this “nugget” in order to get fans buzzing again.

As previously reported on the Inquisitr, police officer Derrick Lezasseur was the winner of Big Brother 16. Lezasseur took home the $500,000 prize after a lot of interesting gameplay. Now a new group of competitors will try to take home that cash prize, with an expected 14 to 16 people entering the house later in June. The contestants will be in the house several days before the footage starts getting revealed on CBS, but it will give those fans viewing the live feeds a lot of information to seek out during those first few weeks. The exact numbers of people participating in BB17 is going to be revealed on June 16, when CBS gives out the full cast list.

The official Big Brother 17 website has been advertising for a while that the season premiere is a two-day event from June 24 to June 25. The official season premiere airs on June 24, beginning at 8 p.m. PT/ET on CBS.
