“Big Brother” Season 27 is set to premiere on July 10, 2024, with a special 90-minute episode airing from 8:00 to 9:30 p.m. ET on CBS. Fans can look forward to not only the traditional hour-long episodes on Sundays and Thursdays but also an exciting new addition of 90-minute episodes on Wednesdays. These Wednesday episodes will run from 8:00 to 9:30 p.m. ET.
Moreover, viewers can enjoy “Big Brother: Unlocked,” which starts on July 25 and will occur every other Friday from 8:00 to 9:00 p.m. ET. This segment promises to provide fans with never-before-seen footage from inside the house, exclusive interviews, surprise guest appearances, and insights from former houseguests as they analyze the game’s strategies.
This season will feature an entirely new cast of houseguests, as confirmed by a press release, and host Julie Chen Moonves will be returning to guide the audience through the drama and excitement of the house.
As a point of interest, CBS has successfully launched 26 seasons of the main “Big Brother” series, alongside three seasons of “Celebrity Big Brother,” which is expected to return in the winter. Additionally, the spinoff “Big Brother: Over the Top” and the recent “Big Brother Reindeer Games” holiday special expand the franchise’s reach.
Overall, the anticipation for this upcoming season is high, and the addition of exclusive segments could enhance viewer engagement.
