Gran Hermano (also known by the acronym GH) is a reality television series broadcast in Spain on Telecinco produced by Zeppelin TV (part of the Endemol Shine Iberia). It is part of the Big Brother franchise first developed in the Netherlands. The Spanish version of Big Brother was the first reality show to be broadcast in the country, which obtained a 36.5% rating share in its premiere and was an audience leader.
The show became an instant success, reaching over ten million in its first two seasons.
Due to the low audience of the eighteenth season, Telecinco decided to shelved the regular edition and continue to produce Gran Hermano VIP and the spin-off Gran Hermano Dúo. In 2024, the regular edition returned after a 7 year break.
As of February 2020, 30 seasons of the show have aired (eighteen regular seasons, seven VIP seasons, and five spin-off seasons). It is the longest-running series in Big Brother franchise worldwide, currently on air.
