Big Brother will return for 15th season on CBS

Hit reality show consistently does well with young audiences

Big Brother, the summer reality hit, has been renewed for its 15th edition, to be broadcast next summer on CBS.

Since premiering on CBS in the summer of 2000, the show has consistently finished among the summer's top-rated series in young demographics. This summer's edition is averaging 6.79 million viewers, 2.5/08 in adults 18-49, 3.0/08 in adults 25-54 and 1.7/06 in adults 18-34.

The show, hosted by Julie Chen, follows a group of people living together in a house outfitted with more than 52 cameras and 95 microphones recording their every move, 24 hours a day.  Each week, the Houseguests vote someone out of the house. The last remaining Houseguest will receive the grand prize of $500,000.

Big Brother spans all platforms, from on-air to online and on cable.   Online content, including full length episodes and highlight clips, are available at CBS.com.  Additionally, CBS and RealNetworks provide 24/7 streaming video from inside the Big Brother house.  On cable, viewers can continue their live look inside the Big Brother house with Big Brother: After Dark on Showtime 2.

On social media websites, Big Brother is one of television's most socially engaged series. This year on Twitter, Big Brother has had five times the average number of tweets per episode (according to BlueFin Labs) compared to last season.
