The first Croatian season of "Big Brother" ran for 100 days, starting on 2004-09-18 and ending on 2004-12-26. It received high ratings and proved to be one of the rare successes for RTL Televizija in its first six months on Croatian television markets.

Despite huge commercial success and becoming cultural phenomenon of its season, the first season was subjected to much criticism. Andrija Hebrang, Croatian health minister at the time, complained about contestants smoking while the programme on air, which was against Croatian laws. In response to this, later live broadcasts were time-delayed. The show also created minor controversy due to a single homophobic statement ("If I knew I have a fag friend, I would kill him. I would kill him") made by Zdravko Lamot [http://www.lupiga.com/vijesti/index.php?id=3322] [http://www.balconn.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=326] .

Other critics complained about lack of diversity among contestants who didn't represent the average of Croatian population. They were mostly all in mid-20s, attending college, having liberal mindset and coming from well-to-do or upper-middle class families. Another exception was Saša Tkalčević, 32-year old biker from Bjelovar, husband and father of two children. He almost immediately established himself as frontrunner, indicating that the audience for the show and pool of potential voters was much older than previously thought.

In this first season, there were 12 original housemates. Later, two new housemates entered the house.

fnb|1 Lea received immunity
fnb|2 Lea saved by "guardian angel". Ana & Dragica were nominated instead of Lea
fnb|3 Tanja nominated by Big Brother because she failed her secret mission
fnb|4 Zoran was nominated by Big Brother because he broke the rules
fnb|5 Yameisy was nominated by Big Brother because she refused to nominate

Fourth Season (2007)

Fourth season began airing on 7th September 2007 and ended on 21st December 2007.

The maximum prize is 1.5 million HRK (200 000 EUR), but grand prize starts at 100.000 HRK (13 500 EUR) and every successful completion of weekly task will increase the final prize by the same amount, however it is expected that the actual winner would get significantly lower amount due to penalties for various House rule violations. Producers introduced penalties as a response to criticism of the second season, when they were perceived to be too tolerant of contestants' misbehavior.
