Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition Plus is the second edition of Pinoy Big Brother for adolescents 16 to 19 years that will be aired by ABS-CBN on Easter Sunday, March 23, 2008. It is still unknown at this time why the word Plus is added to the Edition title.

Toni Gonzaga will return as primetime host; this is also the first Teen Edition she will be hosting. Mariel Rodriguez, the previous Teen Edition primetime host, will return to host the late afternoon edition, Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition Plus Über. Bianca Gonzales will once again host the show's Update skits after being the regular host of Über in the second Celebrity Edition; she once hosted the Update slot back in the second regular season. Luis Manzano will make his return to the show as Gonzaga's co-host in the primetime edition; he was previously a live show co-host in the first Celebrity Edition.

On March 4, 2008, local news on ABS-CBN reported that Big Brother had already sent 30 Dream Keys along with special instructions in a sealed envelope. The instructions told the receiver that they must go to the final casting call in Manila without public information. From these thirty who answered the casting call, twelve were chosen to enter the house.

A special primer called The BIGginning was aired on march 16, 2008. It showed the selection process used to choose the twelve official housemates. While their faces were blurred to withhold their identities, a few of them were eventually shown and their names revealed as Big Brother told them of their rejection through his Big Red Phone.

House theme

The primer also revealed the new look of the House interior, which Manzano describes as having a "funky, modern Moroccan" design with more elegant and colorful furnishings. Also, the "garden" is now dominated by a large swimming pool. This is why the new housemates will now enter the House area through the facade instead of the Eviction Hall as housemates in the second regular edition and the second Celebrity Edition did.
