The latest BB universe spinoff, Big Brother Reindeer Games 2023 has begun and viewers have a few questions about its filming schedule. When was it shot and is the show pre-recorded? Here’s all you need to know.
When was Big Brother Reindeer Games 2023 filmed?
Big Brother Reindeer Games 2023 was entirely shot before its release on December 11, 2023.
On Monday, December 11, 2023, at 8:00 p.m., the two-part series opener premiered on the CBS Television Network. But for those who wish to know, yes, the latest 6-episode show was filmed before its premiere. It’s not live.
Considering that the WGA strike ended in October and the SAG-AFTRA strike was lifted in November, Big Brother Reindeer Games could have been shot and edited between late November and early December 2023.
Is Big Brother Reindeer Games pre-recorded?
Yes, Big Brother Reindeer Games is pre-recorded, with all the episodes having been shot before the premiere.
On the night of BB25’s finale, Julie Chen Moonves announced the upcoming Reindeer Games spinoff. She said:
“Get ready for a brand new show from the ‘Big Brother’ universe. It’s called ‘Big Brother Reindeer Games. It’s a new game and a new set of rules, as legendary ‘BB’ players return to compete to be the last one standing. Six action-packed holiday-themed episodes with special appearances from ‘BB’ favorites — Jordan Lloyd, Derek Xiao and Tiffany Mitchell — as Santa’s Elves.”
Reindeer Games has brought back several familiar Big Brother contestants including Cody Calafiore, Nicole Franzel, Frankie Grande, Taylor Hale, Cameron Hardin, Xavier Prather, and Danielle Reyes, among others. 4 of them will make it to the final episode to compete for the $100,000 prize money. Now, it’ll be interesting to see who wins this Holiday Special spinoff.
