Big Brother 2021 (Dutch and Belgian TV series)

Big Brother 2021 refers to the joint Dutch and Belgian season of the reality television franchise Big Brother, which aired in 2021. The season marked the return of the Big Brother format to both the Netherlands and Belgium after a hiatus of several years.

The premise of Big Brother 2021 remained consistent with the core concept of the show: a group of contestants, referred to as "housemates," lived together in a specially constructed house, isolated from the outside world. Their activities were continuously monitored by cameras and microphones.

Housemates competed in various challenges and tasks to earn privileges or avoid punishments. Each week, the housemates nominated each other for eviction, and the public voted to save their favorite contestants. The housemate with the fewest votes was evicted from the house.

The ultimate goal for the housemates was to be the last remaining contestant in the Big Brother house, thus winning a grand prize. Big Brother 2021 featured contestants from both the Netherlands and Belgium, adding an element of cultural exchange and competition. The season was broadcast on various television channels and streaming platforms in both countries. The show garnered significant media attention and public engagement throughout its run.
