For those of you who depend on the reality show “Big Brother” to get you through the summer months, there’s a change in store. “Big Brother 9″ is returning February 12 – the first time the series has not aired in the summer.
Look for “Big Brother 9″ to return February 12 and air Tuesdays at 9 PM, Wednesdays at 8 PM and Sundays at 8 PM. And of course, host Julie Chen will be back.

The typical summer schedule includes three nights of “Big Brother” per week, but it’s unclear if the show’s earlier return will follow this same format. Host Julie Chen is still on board, as she has been for the previous eight seasons of the series, but the big buzz is the possibility of a celebrity edition.
All media outlets have been given notice that Amber, the most recent Big Brother evictee, nor any future contestants booted off, will be able to give interviews. This is new, compared to prior seasons. Read the rest of this entry »
