Get ready for a LOT of Big Brother 26 tonight with a super-sized episode running two full hours starting at 8/7c on CBS. The Big Brother Houseguests will face off in the prizes & punishments Power of Veto episode complete with ridiculous costumes and backyard silliness. But it’s not just all bad stuff, there are some pretty sweet prizes too including a nice $5K gift from one HG to another. Get the spoiler results on that here.
The house has been pretty nutty this week and I expect we’ll see some of the AI Instigator in action because there is going to be an important viewer vote tonight too. Tucker has been working away as the secretive trouble maker using the holograms to spread misinformation and misdirection which has been effective but trailing off on its influence.
And don’t forget that you’ll be voting for Tucker to receive either $0, $5K, $10K, or $20K at the end of the night and into tomorrow. I expect he’ll get the full $20K which is a nice bonus play by production for Tucker. Be sure to vote in our poll and see what others are planning to give him too.
Two hours is a lot to fill and I expect things just won’t end with the Veto meeting so we can get all the events since then. But speaking of, we will see the Veto put into play for the SIXTH straight week and I think that’s gotta be a Big Brother record at this point. I’m pretty sure it is.
This will all lead up to Thursday’s live eviction show and I think there’s a good chance we’re going to lose one of our lightning rods of attention by the end of the week. It was eventually going to happen and while it’s possible we thread the needle again for a perfect storm of results, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep this streak alive.
We’ll see everything tonight on CBS at 8/7c and you can join other readers back here at 8PM ET for a live chat discussion on what happens next.
