About this season
Big Brother 2000 was a near-exact port of the hit Netherlands (Holland) series of the same name. Every week, Housemates would nominate two fellow housemates and the two or more housemates with the most nominations were eligible for banishment. American viewers could then call a 1-900 number and cast a vote to banish a HouseGuest.
