If this series ends in early May and the summer series starts as usual in July, then they'll only have less than 2 months to prepare for the next series and give viewers a break before the advertise it?

I know USTV works complicatedly, but surely even for them this is gonna be a hard one to pull off.

Unless the summer series stars late summer (early sept) giving them 4 months (which still isn't much) to prepare, have a break and promote before doing the next series into the end of autumn, early winter.

In which case, viewers will be waiting less time for series 11.

As far as I have read on various forums, it will start is July as usual.

It doesn't take BB very long to get the house ready, as they don't completely change the house layout like BBUK.

This series was the surprise one, so they'll already have figured out the summer one, although they are still doing casting calls through til May for it. Can't wait. Hope it's not another bunch of losers like these ones Oh why can't we have someone evil, yet likeable, like Dr Will (I personally prefer Janie's nickname, Dr Delicious LOL). I have never been so entertained by the Diary room before. I really hope they're a likeable bunch. Why can't they ever get a likeable gay on the show? Bunky was ok, he was just too emotional. Marcellas was just a fool LOL. Will was awful, Beau was a bitch, the 2 from last year were plain nasty and let's not even mention Josh, he is one of the vilest people I've ever seen. Why do they keep putting stereotypes in, really annoying. I wonder what the theme will be **wiggles in seat in anticipation** LOL

Will E4 show the next American BB??
I really hope they do as Im addicted to the current series.

Someone should set up a separate channel dedicated to showing different BBs from all over the world.I would like to see the Australian version too.

I doubt it, as it overlaps with our BB. I suppose there is nothing to stop them showing it at any time of the year, since it doesn't require our votes etc, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

I thought the reason we got this one was down to the writers strike and to make up for the awful summer one we got.

The Aussie series also overlaps with ours. I wish they could space them out.

C4 did actually register for a BB channel, but nothing has ever become of it. I read about it in the Sky forum. They list it on their new and current channel lists.

No unfortunately they wont show it so unless there is another writers strike we wont see BB USA again on E4. Just a shame that this series is apparently not as good as previous ones mainly due the couples twist.

Yeah, they always manage to show the less good ones (BB4 and BB9). I would love them to put it on E4 again though.

As long as its not a sky channel then id pay for a big brother channel.
One of the reasons i cant ever see e4 showing bbaus is because of the airtime needed to show the series..its not like bbusa which only has 3 shows a week.
With so many wasted transponders on freeview ( the latest being the lottery channel,its on for about 45 mins only ) It wouldnt be impossible to create a big brother channel maybe with brief opening time of say 6pm till midnight?

Again, I totally agree llamajohn. No argument from me.
