CBS has handed Big Brother a 2-season renewal, which will see it on the air through at least Season 30. The news was announced by host Julie Chen Moonves during tonight's season finale, which crowned the reality show's latest winner.

On the air for over two decades, the veteran series continues to be one of TV's top-rated reality shows. Airing three nights a week, its episodes consistently draw solid viewership against its prime time competition.

In each season of Big Brother, a group of people move into a house together under the watchful eye of dozens of cameras that record their every move 24 hours a day. Each week at least one houseguest is voted out until two remain. A jury of evicted houseguests then decide which of the two wins the $750,000 grand prize.

Look for Season 29 of Big Brother in the summer of 2027, with Julie Chen Moonves once again returning as host.
