Have you ever watched the social experiment show Big Brother, where people live together isolated from the real world?
I've never seen it, but my friends are always talking about it! Is it a scripted or reality show?
It's not scripted.  It's a reality show that actually began in the Netherlands, but is now syndicated internationally.
Is it a competition show? Do you know what the prize is?
Yes.  Housemates are voted out until only one is lift.  I think the cash prize is $500,000.
Oh wow!! That's a nice chunk of money! How are they voted out, by their housemates, like Survivor, or by viewers, like American Idol?
When it first started, housemates voted each other out, but now there are twists where there is voting by the public on social media as well.
