Big Brother 3 (U.S.)
The third season of Big Brother, the American reality TV show, aired 32 episodes during the summer of 2002, from July 10 to September 25. In this season, a new twist was added to the game, in that the HouseGuests could compete for a Power of Veto. At a weekly meeting, the winner could decide to veto a HouseGuest that the Head of Household had placed on the nomination block. In this season, it was not possible for a nominee to use the veto on themselves until the "Golden Power of Veto" was introduced. This was the first and only season to have every evicted HouseGuest vote for a winner. In Season 2, Justin was not allowed to do so, due to his expulsion from the game. Along with Big Brother 4, it has been released on DVD. However, Big Brother 3 is the only one to be released as a complete season set.
Runner-Up Danielle Reyes and fellow HouseGuest Marcellas Reynolds returned to compete in Big Brother 7: All-Stars, where they placed 6th and 9th respectively. Winner Lisa Donahue was a candidate to return for Big Brother: All Stars, but was ultimately not selected to return. HouseGuest Amy returned that season as well to do a segment on her former friendship with Marcellas. She later returned for Big Brother 10 for a food competition featuring a representative from each season.

Famous quotes containing the words big and/or brother:
“Forgive, O Lord, my little jokes on Thee
And I’ll forgive Thy great big one on me.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“I was interested to see how a pioneer lived on this side of the country. His life is in some respects more adventurous than that of his brother in the West; for he contends with winter as well as the wilderness, and there is a greater interval of time at least between him and the army which is to follow. Here immigration is a tide which may ebb when it has swept away the pines; there it is not a tide, but an inundation, and roads and other improvements come steadily rushing after.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
