It has been nearly three years since the most recent season of Celebrity Big Brother aired and we unfortunately won’t be getting a new edition in 2025. CBS debuted the celebrity edition of Big Brother in 2018 to air at the same time as the Winter Olympics, which were airing on NBC.

The network decided to run a second installment in 2019, but they waited until the Olympics again in 2022 for season three. While the producers of Big Brother want to do another celebrity season, they’re opening up about why CBS has not moved forward with it yet.

She added, “We did try the back-to-back, and we’ve heard rumblings that [airing opposite the Olympics] might be the way that Celebrity is utilized.” Allison does want to do a celebrity edition every year. “We can’t speak for CBS, but we agree with you.

We think Celebrity is its own thing and is worthy of being on every other year or annually. It’s been a lot of fun, so we’re hoping to see it come back,” she said.
