Yesterday, CBS announced their new streaming service called CBS All Access. The program has a similar setup to streaming companies like Netflix and Hulu. CBS All Access offers VOD (Videos on Demand) for many of their current and classic programming. What makes CBS All Access a bit different from other streaming companies is that it also allows subscribers to watch live broadcasts of their 14 networks.
CBS All Access has some other interesting perks, especially for Big Brother fans. Deadline revealed that with CBS All Access, you can watch all sixteen Big Brother seasons on demand. Now Big Brother superfans can relive some of their favorite moments and seasons. This also helps people who want to apply for Big Brother 17, but don’t have an extensive knowledge of the show’s history and contestants. This hopefully ensures that the Big Brother 17 cast offer up some compeling game play.
Not only can fans relive the best Derrick Levasseur, Will Kirby, Dan Gheesling, Danielle Reyes, and Janelle Pierzina, to name a few, moments, but also save money on the Live Feeds. That’s right Big Brother fans, if you subscribe to CBS All Access, you also get the Big Brother 17 Live Feeds.
CBS All Access currently only costs $5.99 a month. For people that usually purchase the Live Feeds, the $5.99 a month All Access subscription might be a tempting alternative than paying between $9.99 a month, or $26.99 for the entire season (not counting the $23.99 early bird pass). However the $5.99 discount might not be a huge one if you’re only subscribing to CBS All Access for Big Brother Live Feeds.
Big Brother 17 would likely run from the end of June to mid-September. In order to see all of the Live Feeds, you’ll have to pay $5.99 from June to September, which equals about $23.96. Not a big difference from the early bird pass. However, if you’re a CBS lover, only paying $5.99 a month to see all your favorite shows, plus getting Big Brother past seasons on demand, and the Live Feeds, might make it a good deal.
