After playing Big Brother twice, winning once, and appearing on the show numerous times throughout its 27 seasons, Dr. Will Kirby weighs in on whether he’d ever return to play.
Kirby won Season 2 and then came in fourth place when he returned for the All-Stars season (7). He went down as one of the Big Brother greats, managing to stay in the game despite being nominated four times in his first season, and barely winning competitions. He had clever strategies and aligned himself with multiple people in the house in order to keep the majority.
