Big Brother Suomi (in English, Big Brother Finland) is the Finnish adaptation of the reality television series Big Brother, broadcast on SubTV in Finland.

There are three different programmes. "Big Brother" is the name of the daily show aired every day. On Sunday it's included in "Big Brother Talk Show". In 2005, the daily show was referred as "reality" by the hosts. The following year, it was called "pääohjelma" ("main show"). "Big Brother Talk Show" airs on Sundays. It includes clips of the Saturday of housemates, discussion about the show with varying guests and live eviction. "Big Brother Extra" is aired from Monday to Friday. The viewers can send SMS messages about the show. The host also interviews Big Brother staff and evicted house mates.

SubTV has aired three seasons of the series, and the channel has announced that Big Brother will be renewed for a fourth series, which will most likely air in the second half of 2008.[1]
