Big Brother Schedule Update: CBS Confirms Changes Ahead of Season Finale

Big Brother fans will see another shift in the schedule this week. CBS has confirmed that the long-running reality show will be off Sunday night due to the Emmy Awards. This marks the second straight Sunday without a new episode.

The change comes as Big Brother 27 heads into its final stretch. Fans are eager to see how the last weeks unfold. The season finale is set for Sunday, September 28.

Why Big Brother Schedule Changed This Week

CBS has had to adjust the Big Brother schedule twice in September. Last week, the VMAs caused a delay. This week, the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards take over Sunday night.

According to CBS, the schedule will balance out with two longer midweek episodes. Wednesday will feature a two-hour broadcast with the Head of Household reveal, nominations, and Power of Veto. Thursday will also run two hours and include a double eviction.

That means fans will still get all the big moves and drama. But they will need to wait a little longer. The adjustments ensure Big Brother stays on track to finish before the end of the month.

What Fans Can Expect in Coming Episodes

Only seven houseguests remain. They are Ashley Hollis, Ava Pearl, Keanu Soto, Kelley Jorgensen, Lauren Domingue, Morgan Pope, and Vince Panaro. After Thursday’s double eviction, just five players will be left.

Recent episodes have brought big moments. Cliffton “Will” Williams was evicted in a 3–2 vote. Former winner Rachel Reilly returned for an interview with Julie Chen Moonves, though she did not rejoin the game.

The coming episodes will decide the finalists. Fans can expect high tension and more blindsides as the end draws closer. With fewer days left, every decision now carries more weight.

Big Brother schedule changes are not new. But with the finale close, the stakes feel higher. Viewers will have to adjust, but the payoff promises to be big.
