The latest episode of Big Brother 27 has sparked significant fan outrage following the unexpected eviction of Keanu Soto. As a fan favorite, Keanu’s departure came as a shock, particularly as it marked the second time a popular contestant was evicted without a live vote, reminiscent of Rachel Reilly’s earlier eviction.
At the beginning of this eventful week, five contestants—Keanu Soto, Vince Panaro, Morgan Pope, Ashley Hollis, and Ava Pearl—remained in the Big Brother house. However, fans noticed a twist when the live feeds temporarily went offline, only to return with Keanu no longer in the game. The formal eviction wasn’t aired until Wednesday, a delay that added to fan frustration with this season’s management.
Keanu’s eviction was strategically engineered by Vince and Morgan, who have solidified their dominance within the house, especially due to Vince’s impressive streak of Head of Household (HoH) wins. Unfortunately for Keanu, he failed to secure the Power of Veto, a critical opportunity that Morgan captured and chose not to utilize, sealing Keanu’s fate in an open, unanimous eviction vote.
The show’s fan base has expressed considerable dissatisfaction due to these unexpected evictions, particularly as they occurred without live coverage, diminishing the suspense and engagement that comes with live eliminations.
In the aftermath of his exit, Keanu’s reflection in the Diary Room highlighted his regret in trusting Vince, who has now potentially jeopardized his own prospects for the win. With multiple evictions under his belt, Vince may face challenges in securing jury votes from ousted contestants.
Looking ahead, Morgan Pope appears to be the strong favorite to win the competition, with consensus suggesting she will likely claim victory if she reaches the final two. This prediction motivates Vince, Ava, and Ashley to target her leading up to the season finale. Success will hinge on Morgan’s performance in the final HoH competition, where securing a win is pivotal for her continuation in the game.
The conclusion of Big Brother 27 is eagerly anticipated, with the finale airing live on Sunday, September 28, at 8:30 p.m. ET, where the winner will be crowned amidst much buildup and intrigue.
