The Big Brother 26 Houseguests have moved in already and the game is underway as we await tonight’s season premiere to officially kick off the episodes and put us on our way to catch up with what’s going on already.
We knew the first night’s show was not going to be live and the Feeds won’t kick on until after Thursday’s second episode of the season so it all made sense that HGs would already be in ahead of things and playing away to give production time to get everything together for Wednesday’s premiere. Sure enough, according to @Hamsterwatch the new batch of Houseguests have entered the house and begun their pursuit of the $750K prize.

Interesting note there that the HGs did not compete for the first Head of Household competition as of last night. Now Julie had previously said the HGs would move in over the two episodes this week so maybe there was something going on with the first batch completing their side of a mini comp, something we have seen before, and then the next batch would be doing theirs. Of course there’s little time left to speculate with the episode just a few hours away.
Reminder that tonight’s episode is not live and will air 9/8c for 60-minutes (last year was a 90-minute, one-night premiere) and then Thursday again at 9/8c will have us rolling and the season will be fully on its way. Feeds won’t start until Thursday after 10PM PT (1AM ET) so settle in for a seemingly forever wait while we know things are happening and we’re stuck out here missing all the fun.
We’ll see you back here tonight for the Big Brother 26 premiere at 9PM ET!
