Following the premiere of Big Brother's 26th season, the show will continue to air on Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday nights at 9PM ET/PT.
Thursday episodes will feature live evictions, and the series' Sunday night episodes will begin on July 21.
Julie Chen Moonves will return as host, and Paramount+ with SHOWTIME subscribers and Pluto TV viewers will be able to catch all the action on the Big Brother Live Feeds.
When the houseguests move in to the Big Brother house, cameras, both inside and outside in the backyard, will document their every move at every turn.
Each week, a Big Brother houseguest or two will be voted out of the house, and the last houseguest remaining will win a large grand prize of $750,000.
