Season chronology |
The third season of Big Brother Canada began airing on March 23, 2015. It featured sixteen HouseGuests, an increase from the prior two seasons. The series moved to Global Television Network with this season, previously airing on the smaller Slice channel. The move resulted in an increase in ratings, making it the highest rated season at the time; it has since been surpassed by the fourth season. The house featured a "steampunk" theme, while the season featured more twists than its predecessors. It is the first season to feature a triple eviction, a twist that has been used in later seasons. Lasting for a total of ten weeks, the season concluded on May 27 when Sarah Hanlon was named the winner.
Following a successful first two seasons, [1] [2] it was confirmed on 4 June 2014 that the show would return for a third season. [3] Arisa Cox confirmed her return as host, as well as announced the show's move to Global. [3] Though the main series changed networks, the spin-off seasons continued to air on Slice. [3] The move was seen as a positive change for the show, as Global had a wider audience. [4] Casting began on 20 August, with Robyn Kass once more being given the role of selecting the HouseGuests. [5] Seven open casting calls were scheduled throughout the country in October and November, [6] while online applications were accepted until 24 November. [6] Former HouseGuests such as Jon Pardy and Neda Kalantar appeared at the open casting calls to promote the series. [7] The first promo for the season premiered on 17 December. [8] Dan Gheesling, who had previously won the United States edition in 2008, appeared with Cox on The Morning Show to promote the premiere. [9] The sixteen HouseGuests were revealed prior to the show's launch in a three-night event on ET Canada ; six were shown the first night, following by an additional five each of the two following nights. [10] The increase in contestants made season three the season with the most HouseGuests at the time, though all subsequent seasons have featured sixteen. [11]
This season used the same house as the prior season, though featured a dramatic makeover. The new House was revealed through Global on 20 March 2015. [12] Peter Faragher once more designed the House, which heavily displayed a steampunk vibe. [13] Large gears and metals can be seen in all the rooms, giving the appearance of showing the House's inner workings. [13] The British edition of the franchise was cited as an influence on the theme, with Faragher wanting the House to make its inhabitants feel uncomfortable. [12] The layout of the House remains the same as the prior season, with the entrance, bathroom, and main bedrooms upstairs; the Have-Not room remains downstairs. [12] The Head of Household room was compared to the parlor of the Nautilus from the science-fiction novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (1870). [12] The main bedroom has the appearance of a blue sky with clouds, intended to make HouseGuests feel safe in the room. [13] The Have-Not room hid a special power in the floor. [12] The kitchen table was designed to look like a large bicycle chain with cogs and a sprocket running underneath it. [14]
Twistos returned as a sponsor for the second season in a row, offering a $10,000 trip of their choice to the show's winner. [15] KFC, OxiClean, Shomi, Ramada, and Pizza Pizza also sponsored the series for its third run, with Ramada and Pizza Pizza being returning sponsors. [16] Shomi, owned by Shaw Media, allowed the Head of Household each week to watch one film or television episode. [17] [18] The Brick once more furnished the House, and offered a $25,000 gift card to the winner of the season. [15] Like the previous season, fans were able to select one piece of furniture from The Brick each week to place in the Head of Household suite. [19] Per usual, the winner received an additional $100,000 prize; the runner-up received a $20,000 prize. [20] With the move to a new network, the series had a new broadcast schedule this season. The live eviction episodes aired on Wednesdays at 8 PM Central Time, with the Big Brother After Show airing immediately after on the Slice network. [21] The Sunday episode featured the nomination ceremony, and aired at 6 PM. [22] The final weekly episode aired on Mondays at 7 PM, and featured the weekly Power of Veto competition and the subsequent ceremony. [22] Following their original broadcast, episodes of the season were uploaded onto the official Global website for free streaming. [23]
HouseGuests Bruno Ielo, Kevin Martin, and Sindy Nguyen would all return to compete on the show's fifth season. [25]
In 2023, Godfrey Mangwiza appeared on the second season of Bachelor in Paradise Canada . [26] In 2023, Kevin Martin competed on The Traitors Canada . [27] In 2024, Martin competed on The Amazing Race Canada 10 . [28]
The sixteen HouseGuests moved into the House on 19 March, referred to as Day 1. [29] The House was empty upon their entrance, and the contestants learned they would have to earn their belongings and furniture. [30] [31] In another twist, the HouseGuests were told that all of them were the Head of Household; [31] each HouseGuest secretly nominated two HouseGuests, and the two with the most votes were the official nominations. [30] Risha and Sindy became the nominees. [32] Bobby, Kevin, Naeha, and Zach were chosen to compete for the Power of Veto alongside the nominees. Sindy won the "V Is For Veto" competition that night, and removed herself from the block. [30] She was tasked with choosing a replacement nominee, and chose Pilar. [30] Following a series of tasks, the HouseGuests earned the furniture and their belongings on Day 3. [33] [34] Kevin earned a $1,000 prize for sabotaging one of the tasks. [34] Ashleigh, Bobby, Bruno, Graig, Willow, and Zach formed the Chop Shop alliance that same day. [35] On Day 7, the HouseGuests learned that Canada had been given the power to evict one of the nominees; Risha was then evicted from the House. [36] [37]
Bobby won the "Wall to Wall" endurance Head of Household competition that night. [38] [39] Brittnee, Godfrey, Jordan, and Naeha became the Have-Nots after losing the "Have-Not Slop Off" competition on Day 8.
