"I just want to say thank for the support. Imagine tumagal po ang 'PBB' for 19 years at lahat po kami ay naging bahagi nito. So sa lahat po ng patuloy na nag-a-audition, patuloy na naniniwala sa 'Pinoy Big Brother,' maraming salamat sa pagtitiwala. 'PBB' produced countless personalities and it reflects the lives of the Filipinos kaya siya tinatawag na ito ang teleserye ng totoong buhay," Domingo said.

"Ang 'PBB' kasi parang tradisyon na siya ng Pinoy at nag-iisa lang ang Bahay ni Kuya. So dahil nag-iisa lang siya, 12 lang pinapapasok sa isang year, kumbaga gusto makabisita, makita kung ano ba ang power o emotion na maramdaman mo kapag nasa loob ka ng Bahay ni Kuya," Cantiveros added.

"I have to say that we're the last ones to know inside this house sa mga pangyayari. Kasi kami hindi rin namin alam unless ibigay 'yung script. Minsan 'yung final script na naibibigay sa amin so we can report it out on the spot, minsan napapalitan pa. Tulad nang nangyari sa previous editions. Minsan nga 'yung scrupt na ibibigay sa iyo hindi pa 'yon ang totoo, may nakatago So ang daming twist ng 'PBB' na talagang it's challenging at the same time exciting," Domingo said.

So that's one big challenge and excitement on may part," Domingo added.
