Big Brother 22 TV Schedule: What Time Does It Air On CBS & What Days?
The brand new Big Brother 22: All-Stars is just getting started, so now is the time to get familiarized with the show's TV schedule on CBS. BB22 premiered at 9 pm EST on Wednesday, August 5. The season features a healthy mix of old-school players and houseguests from recent seasons. Overall, the second-ever All-Stars has 16 players who represent 14 different BB seasons. Among them, there are two winners: Ian Terry (BB14) and Nicole Franzel (BB18). The season also features four runners-up: Daniele Donato Briones (BB8), Memphis Garrett (BB10), Cody Calafiore (BB16), and Tyler Crispen (BB20).
The Big Brother: All-Stars premiere consisted of a two-hour live move-in episode where four groups of four houseguests each made their way inside the house. The houseguests had to immediately compete in the season's first-ever Head of Household competition. Ultimately, Cody won the comp and became the first HOH of All-Stars. Early on the morning of Thursday, August 6, CBS made the BB live feeds available on CBS All Access. However, the network did not air an episode on Thursday. While it is easy to get confused in regards to the first week's schedule of BB22, things will become much simpler next week.
On Sunday, August 9, Big Brother 22: All-Stars has been scheduled to air at 10 pm EST. However, it is important to note that CBS is scheduled to air the PGA Championship at 8 pm EST, which may delay the BB22 episode airing on August 9. For the time being, this is the only exception to the Big Brother 22 TV schedule. Starting next week, BB will always air at 8 pm EST on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. The first episode to air on this regular schedule is the one on Wednesday, August 12.
Despite the confusing time changes during the first week of the show, Big Brother 22 will default to its Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday schedule of many years starting next week. All episodes will air at 8 pm EST. On Thursdays, the All-Stars will be sent home in a live eviction episode. Also on Thursdays, following each eviction, the houseguests will play in the Head of Household competition. On Sundays, fans will watch the HOH of the week nominating two fellow All-Stars to be up for eviction. Then, on Wednesdays, viewers will get to watch the Power of Veto competition. If the POV is used on a particular week, the HOH will have to nominate someone else to replace the vetoed nominee. The aforementioned schedule then repeats itself every week.
It's only the first week, so it's fair to say that the Big Brother 22: All-Stars game dynamic is still being figured out among the houseguests. With that said, things are surely going to change over the next few days, as players start to fight to win competitions and vote for people to be evicted.
Big Brother 22: All-Stars airs Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays at 8 pm EST on CBS.
