Big Brother is one of the most highly beloved reality TV shows in the nation.

This reputation doesn't come lightly. The show, no matter whether you're a live feeds watcher or someone who watches every single episode every week, is wildly entertaining, keeping you on the edge of your seats for days on end. That's why, when the show ends for the season, we're left feeling very empty, looking for something else to replace that itch for us. Thankfully, although Big Brother can't be replaced, there are a few shows that can take over in the meantime.

By and large, Netflix reality TV shows are the next best thing. They are full of amazing contestants, each with unique personalities that we can't get enough of. However, above all, these shows all include fierce competition since there is a lot of life-changing money on the line.

One aspect of Big Brother that aids in the show's legendary status is the contestants. After all, who is cast in a show can make or break the season, so it's important to have intriguing people who will keep you interested all the way until the season finale. What better Netflix show encompasses the power of great casting than Too Hot to Handle?!

Too Hot to Handle

Too Hot to Handle takes a bunch of sexually charged individuals who can't help but want to express their desire for the person they may be eyeing. But, on this show, these contestants have to use restraint because the more they act on their impulses, the more money they lose. The only way to walk away with the grand prize is to rid themselves of sexual pleasures and chase after meaningful romance instead. This is much easier said than done.

This show is perfect for Big Brother fans who shamelessly love showmances, break-ups, and the occasional forbidden yet steamy hook-ups. There may not be much competition in the show, but it's still a great game to watch unfold nonetheless.

Physical: 100

So maybe showmances and fleeting relationships aren't your thing? Perhaps you would rather see more of the competition aspect. Specifically, tough competitions that truly showcase the physical prowess of the best of the best competitors out there. If that's the case, then we recommend Physical:100!

Physical: 100 takes one hundred athletic and strength-obsessed humans from all over the world and puts them in the battle of a lifetime. The goal is to be the strongest of them all, to be the last one standing to boast about the strength that cannot be surpassed by anyone at all. And once one obtains that goal, they receive a ginormous cash prize. Nothing beats being called the strongest and the wealthiest in the same breath!

This show is great for Big Brother fans who love endurance and strength comps but don't get to see that many throughout the series since the show tends to have more lighthearted and fun competitions like OTEV or Hide-and-Go-Veto. Physical: 100 is like your favorite wall comp but on steroids!

The Circle

If you love the social aspect of the game the most, then we think that The Circle is your cup of tea.

The social strategy of Big Brother is another aspect that truly makes this show one-of-a-kind, too. Seeing players stumble their way to the end of the competition through making meaningful relationships but fickle alliances will never cease to be an enjoyable watch. What's even better are the times in the social game when it's time to betray and lie to get farther ahead in the game!

The Circle includes players lying their way to get to the top. Be it lying about their identity or lying about their profession, they have to do what must be done to dupe everyone to win that cash prize. Each contestant must have a near-flawless social game if they want to make it to the end.

Hopefully, these shows remind you of Big Brother in some way. The only way to find out is by heading to Netflix to stream every second!
