morty Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 The new season of Big Brother will finally be broadcast in high definition, just like it's superior Canadian version. Big Brother was the only regularly scheduled primetime program still shown in standard definition. The hold-up for the change likely had to do with how the show is shot. “It’s not just about swapping out cameras,” co-executive producer Rich Meehan told Vulture. “Everything had to be changed … and we couldn’t do anything that would jeopardize production of the series.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brekkie Boy Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 About time but complete bull - it's pretty much the last version of BB to go HD and most have managed to do it in the off-season. Doesn't sound like the house has changed so I suspect had they stopped and thought about it they'd have realised by actually demolishing the existing set and building a much needed refreshed house they could have probably switched to HD quicker and in the long run cheaper too.

Moxie Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 The article I saw about it said they ended up laying 14 miles of new cables for the HD. That's a lot of cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brekkie Boy Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 14 miles though should probably easily be done in 14 weeks though, even 14 days, not 3 years. When you break it down it's not really as much as it sounds at first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDM Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Can't wait to see the difference, hopefully a new house to help break up the monotony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
