In addition to the winner being revealed and claiming the competition's $500,000 grand prize, Big Brother's finale broadcast will also feature the houseguests reuniting and discussing the season.
Big Brother's twelfth season will be the straight-second edition to feature a two-hour finale format.
Big Brother 6 was the last Big Brother edition to air its finale after the debut of Survivor, which has launched CBS' fall schedule each of the last nine years. It aired September 20, 2005 -- five days after the premiere of Survivor: Guatemala, Survivor's eleventh edition.
Big Brother's third, fourth and fifth editions also aired their finales the week after the debuts of Survivor's fall editions in 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively.
