With the return of live feeds for the upcoming 26th season of Big Brother, we still need to find out when they’ll be turned on?
Yes, live feeds are back but we might see a delay before those feeds get turned on for the new season ahead! Read on to find out more.
We are about to swap out Santa for summer fun with the arrival of Big Brother season 26 starting on Wednesday, July 17th at 9PM ET/PT for a two-night premiere on CBS. And that puts us at just less than two weeks until our summer freedom is washed away and we’re tied to our screens for all the latest Big Brother news and updates thanks to the return of the live feeds!
Typically the month leading up to a new season is filled with speculation and often fake spoilers but along with that we’ll get the real deal with house themes, a tour with Julie Chen, hints at the season’s theme and yes, even eventually the reveal of the new cast who will be taking over primetime at CBS, with three new episodes every week.
When will the Live Feeds get turned on for Big Brother 26?
It was recently revealed that there is no live move-in for the BB26 cast. While this is just a rumor so far, it could be a way to ramp up the excitement for premiere night.
Having the houseguests move into the studio before premiere night means taping the first episode. It might also mean that the second episode is also pre-recorded.
During recent seasons, the live move-ins meant that the live feeds would be turned on premiere night. But with a two-night premiere, we might not get the live feeds until a little later.
Since the second night of the premiere is Thursday, July 18, the live feeds may be turned on later that evening. That’s possibly bad news for Each Coast viewers who may have to wait for the West Coast episode to air.
In that scenario, the Big Brother 26 live feeds would get turned on at about 10 p.m. PT / 1 a.m. ET on that Thursday night.
The good news is that the live feeds are available on Paramount+, and through a free option on Pluto TV.
In the meantime we’ll be here watching and waiting for the new Big Brother 26 cast, house reveal, when the feeds will be turned on and twist details for the season ahead. It’s quite possible we’ll get a cast reveal on Monday, July 15th, house reveal on Tuesday, July 16th, and the premiere with twist details announced on Wednesday, July 17th. Hopefully they’ll also tell us how long the season will run.
