'Big Brother' Gets Renewed for Season 13

Julie Chen, 'Big Brother'It couldn't have been too difficult of a decision for CBS executives to green light another season of 'Big Brother.' After all, although the show is currently wrapping up its 12th season, it has actually gained viewers in its tenth year of existence.

Vulture is reporting that CBS has officially renewed 'Big Brother' for a 13th season. It's a logical decision, considering 'Big Brother' has become as synonymous with the summertime as ice cream and hot dogs.

"'Big Brother' is our summer hero," CBS reality head Jennifer Bresnan told Vulture. Amidst a sea of repeats, it's kind of our summer hero too.

The show's 12th season finale airs tonight. Housemates Enzo, Hayden and Lane are all up for the grand prize.

Tell us: Do you still watch 'Big Brother'? Will you watch a 13th season?

I agree with the previous comment. Of course it was renewed, the host is married to Les Moonves, CBS entertainment "head honcho" The only good thing about it getting renewed is that it keeps Julie Chen off CBS Morning News when she is filming Big Brother. She is AWFUL. No talent, no personality, and she tries to dominate the other morning anchors, because her husband is their boss. She is one of the main reasons that CBS Morning News is always in last place. Too bad for the other talented co-hosts.

I kept waiting for an "Evil Dick". This cast was pretty lame. I enjoyed the Brigade & Brittany - just couldn't hold on to a favorite. I would also like to see it twice a year. Best part when they had to dance -

This is the best reality show on TV!!! I could care less if all others go as long as this one stays...people talk about being backstabbers,liers...etc etc...bad to teach our kids? I agree not exactly the morals that i instill but in reality the world is a big cruel place & as long as you set them with your own then shows llike this shouldnt & wouldnt affect them. I wanted The Meow Meow to win Im sure he could have used the money more then half the peeps on the show...im glad hayden won if enzo didnt cause Lane comes from a family with money! Very dissappointed that Enzo didnt at least win 25,000...cant wait till next summer go BB13 go!!!!

Can't believe Brit got that money. What a bi**h! Just remember how mean and catty her and Monet were in the beginning, talking about EVERYONE behind their backs. I had to keep remembering that throughout the episodes when she became more sympathetic. Sorry, don't think she should have got the money when I remember how mean she was in the beginning. That part of her personality sucked.

I don't understand how people can watch a show that promotes hate and ignorance. I mean it's a show designed so that if you cant be hurtful or a lier and backstabber, your not likely to survive in the house. I just cant see a productive lesson this teaches our kids. The show is a disgrace and should be taken off the air. I can only believe people with shallow minds and hearts really get into it. Is there anyone who ever won without being a backstabber, cut throat, lier or snake, probably not. I would like to see someone who is a good person go on the show and conquer by winning the competitions and hearts of the other competitors. I'm sure this would not be good for the drama needed to promote the show. Just another example of people in Hollywood with money that don't give a crap about what they put on T.V., as long as they fill their pockets with money. I'm sure they will win some slime ball award.

it's sad when this crap is just about what all you can find on TV. Hopefully the braindead writers in Hollyweird will wake up and decide to put something ENTERTAINING for a change instead of this braindead slop. Otherwise I'll entertain myself with Netflix and DVDs. Most reality TV just absolutly insults my intelligence or what's left of it. Wait some network TV isn't so great either *sighs*
