Big Brother 27 Has Begun — Houseguests Checked Into “Hotel Mystère”

It’s official: Big Brother 27 kicked off last night… without us. Yep, the 16 brand-new Houseguests have already checked into “Hotel Mystère,” and the game is very much in motion. As for the mysterious 17th Houseguest? That’s still under wraps for now — but we’re hoping for answers soon!

With the cast moved in, production is now hard at work piecing together Thursday night’s 90-minute premiere (airing 8/7c on CBS). Expect the usual: home intros, flashy entrances, and awkward meet-and-greets. Will someone finally enter the house butt first? Probably not. (One can dream.)

Inside the house, alliances are already forming, beds are being claimed, and first impressions are turning into early-game strategies. This is one of the most crucial windows of gameplay… and we’re missing it all. Ouch.

Even worse? The Live Feeds won’t kick in until late Sunday night — meaning we’ll join the action on Day 6. By then, the first HOH will be crowned, nominations likely set, and the Veto comp could already be in the books. And yes, that elusive 17th Houseguest may have already made a splash. By the time we log in, the dust will have settled and the storylines will be racing ahead.

Sure, the CBS episodes will fill in some of the blanks, but those edits come with a healthy dose of spin. We’ll never get the full raw version of these early, pivotal days.

Still, the season is on, and BB27 is finally here! Let’s see what chaos, alliances, and blindsides await — even if we’re fashionably (and frustratingly) late to the party.
