Big Brother

Big Brother is a Summer juggernaut on CBS and has been since it rolled out in 2000 – and we offer the latest updates at Soap Dirt.

Julie Chen hosted BB since day one when she welcomed the first set of HouseGuests into the camera-ridden BB house.

Big Brother adds another dimension to the reality series experience by offering live feeds on ParamountPlus with a subscription or free on PlutoTV.

Viewers can see 4 cameras inside the house on the feeds to find out more than is shown on the CBS episodes which air three times a week on Sunday, Wednesday and Thursday for the live eviction.

Julie Chen appears only on the televised versions of the show.

The key competitions of Big Brother include Head of Household (HoH). This determines who gets the big bedroom and nominates HouseGuests for eviction.

The Power of Veto (PoV) allows players a chance to affect who’s “on the chopping block”. The PoV winner can take themselves or someone else off the hot seat. Or they can decline to use it.

Since BB26, there’s been an additional facet to the game which prevents a blindside with no chance to earn safety. In BB26, it was called the AI arena and in BB27, the BB Blockbuster.

Beginning in BB26, the HOH had to name three nominees who go to play for safety in the POV comp. Three nominees head into eviction with a chance to play this last-chance live competition to remove themselves from the block leaving two final nominees facing the eviction vote.

There are many recurring Big Brother themed events fans and HGs look forward to including Zingbot (who slings disses at players). Then there’s OTEV, a musical-chairs type veto comp.

BB Comics has players zipline past illustrated versions of current season players to test their memories. And Slippery Slope is a fun recurring Big Brother game. It sets players on a slick incline transporting fluid while trying (and failing) not to fall. The Wall is a big comp everyone looks forward to as well, which can be grueling.
