The Sweden and Norway joint edition of Big Brother is a reality show shown on Kanal 5 in Sweden, and FEM in Norway, in which a number of contestants live in an isolated house trying to avoid being evicted by the public with the aim of winning a large cash prize at the end of the run. It is based on the Big Brother series produced by Endemol.
From 2000 on, seasons of Big Brother were shown in both Norway and Sweden and in both countries the show enjoyed very high ratings, so high that eventually the production teams of both began thinking about joining to make one Big Brother show for both countries. In 2005, they joined forces.
The 2006 season was also a co-production between Norwegian and Swedish Big Brother. For this season Adam Alsing left the show, and Hannah Rosander took over as the Swedish host. There was also a Big Brother Exchange twist with Big Brother Thailand as well. Following the second season in 2006 the show was cancelled in both Sweden and Norway.
On 31 August 2014 the third joint season of Big Brother between Norway and Sweden premiered on Kanal 9 in Sweden and FEM in Norway.
