List of episodes

Big Brother 21 is the twenty-first season of the CBS American reality television series Big Brother. It is based upon the Dutch series of the same name. In May 2019, CBS announced that the series had been renewed through its twenty-second season.[3][4] CBS later announced the season was set to premiere on June 25, 2019.[5] In the season, sixteen new competitors, known as HouseGuests, are set to compete. Each week in the game, HouseGuests compete in a series of competitions to win power and safety, they then vote to eliminate, or "evict", one of their own until there are only two remaining. In the finale episode previous HouseGuests vote on who they think they should win the game with the HouseGuest who receives the most votes being declared the winner. The season is expected to contain forty episodes and conclude with a 90 minute season finale on September 25, 2019.[6][7]

CBS announced that Big Brother had been renewed for a twenty-first and twenty-second season on May 15, 2019.[3] CBS later announced on May 20, that the twenty-first season was set to premiere on June 25, 2019.[8] Unnamed insiders close to the production of the show previously cast doubt if Chen Moonves would return to host following sexual misconduct allegations against her husband Les Moonves.[9] Chen Moonves however, returned for the second season of Celebrity Big Brother and it was later announced that Julie Chen Moonves would return as host of the series.[10] Despite not having an official renewal announcement from CBS at the time, casting for the season was open until April 2019.[11] Kassting, Inc. returned to provide casting services for a twentieth consecutive season since Big Brother 2 with Robyn Kass serving as the casting director.[12][13] Allison Grodner and Rich Meehan are set to return as executive producers for the series which is produced by Fly on the Wall Entertainment, in association with Endemol Shine North America.[14] The season features an initial time slot change from previous seasons; new episodes are set to air on a Sunday/Tuesday/Wednesday schedule through the first six episodes before returning to a traditional Sunday/Wednesday/Thursday schedule as in previous seasons.[15] The 24/7 internet live feeds are also expected to return with a CBS All Access subscription following the two-night season premiere on June 26.[16] In addition, Big Brother: After Dark is expected to return on Pop also following the two-night premiere on June 26 or June 27, depending on viewers local time zones.[17]

House

Taken from the entry way of the house, the camp theme in the house can be seen from the hanging lanterns and the tree set piece. The ladder leading to the upstairs lounge, "treehouse", or "skybridge" is on the right. In the background the living room featuring the LED light illuminated 23-foot trianglar window can be seen.

As with previous seasons, the program is filmed at CBS Studios, soundstage 18 in Studio City, California in a custom-built two story house.[18][19] The House is equipped with 94 high-definition cameras and over 113 microphones in order to monitor and record the HouseGuests.[20][21] The living room, three bedrooms, kitchen, dining room, bathroom, and lounge room are located on the first floor.[22] The Head of Household bedroom and bathroom, and an additional lounge area known as the "Sky Bridge" are located on the second floor.[22] The second floor is accessible by a ladder located in the entry way or a spiral staircase located in the kitchen next to the sliding glass doors that lead to the backyard.[22] The backyard area features outdoor amenities for the HouseGuests.[22] The house also features two diary rooms where the HouseGuests can privately share thoughts or send requests to producers of the series.[23] Entertainment Tonight showed the first look at the house with Kevin Frazier during their episode on the night of June 20, 2019.[24] Entertainment Tonight then released a sneak peek of the house through a brief tour on their website on June 21.[1] Meanwhile, a full house tour with the host, Julie Chen Moonves, and other photos were released through Big Brother's and CBS' social media outlets including IGTV/Instagram,[25][26] Twitter,[27][28] and Facebook.[29][30]

The Big Brother 21 house theme matched the season's overall theme and received a camp theme; Production Designer Scott Storey designed the house's features.[31] The living room features a birch-wood coffee table and a large and a 23-foot triangular window illuminated by LED lights.[32] The first bedroom features a "sleeping under the stars" theme and includes two double-beds and the exterior of a camper.[33] The camper, is only a facade into the second bedroom which features three double-beds and is assumed to be that of a camp counselors bedroom.[33] The third and final downstairs bedroom is a sports-themed bedroom primarily based from archery.[33] In the kitchen many of the appliances have been redone in an attempted to blend them in with the rest of the theme, an electronic camp fire has been added to the center of formal dining table.[34] The downstairs lounge area received a boat theme while the bathroom received a boat house like theme.[35] The upstairs lounge area, for the first time in the series history is also accessible by a ladder from the entry way, has been updated to resemble a tree house; the Head of Household bedroom and bathroom have been changed to resemble a Moroccan-style bedroom.[36] The backyard features a pool with kayak's and an attached hot tub, lawn chairs surround the back yard which also features a pool table and a washer and dryer, workout equipment, outdoor lounge areas, a hammock, and a mini-fridge.[37]

Prize

The last remaining HouseGuest is set to receive $500,000.[38]

Theme

It was revealed that the theme for this season is a summer camp called "Camp B.B."[39]

Main twists

Camp Director

On the first premiere night, Julie announced that the HouseGuests would vote for a Camp Director. That person would be safe from the first eviction as well, but they had to select four HouseGuests to banish. Those four HouseGuests would then compete to get back into the house. The three winners would go back into the house while the loser stayed banished and did not return. Jackson was elected Camp Director and banished Cliff, David, Jessica, and Kemi. David stayed banished when he lost the competition.

Whacktivity Competition

On the second premiere night, Julie announced the Whacktivity Competition where a game-changing twist would be unleashed onto the house. Every week for the first three weeks, five designated HouseGuests, unless previous evicted, would play in the competition to win a special power in the house.

Camp Comeback

On the first live eviction show, Julie announced to the audience that the first person voted out of the house isn't going anywhere. After revealing Ovi's eviction, an alarm rang, and the HouseGuests were instructed to go back to the living room. They were told that the evicted HouseGuest wouldn't leave the house, but they would live inside the house as part of Camp Comeback. One of the first four HouseGuests would win their way back into the game. The evicted HouseGuests would not compete in competitions or ceremonies and would sleep in a special bedroom. The four HouseGuests, David, Ovi, TBD, and TBD, competed immediately after the fourth eviction. TBD made their way back into the game.

7071"Episode 1"Day 1June 25, 2019 (2019-06-25)4.93[44]1.3/7[44]
On Day 1 sixteen new HouseGuests moved into the newly designed Big Brother house for up to 99 days and a chance to win the grand prize of half of a million dollars. Following the move-in the HouseGuests joined each other in the living room for formal introductions over champagne. As the HouseGuests began to settle in to the House Julie informed them that they would vote for a camp director. The camp director would be safe from the first eviction and have unprecedented power in the game. Some HouseGuests campaigned for camp director while others did not wish to have the role. In the backyard each HouseGuest voted for who they think should be the camp director. Jackson won the camp director vote with ten votes. Julie then informed Jackson that he would be forced to banish four people from the game, the four banished people will then compete against each other head-to-head, three of the four will reenter the game while one will be out of the game.

Jackson begins planning on who he should banish from the Big Brother house. Jackson chose to banish Cliff, Kemi, Jessica, and David from the game. The banished HouseGuests are escorted to the backyard where they begin their competition.

  • Banishment Competition ("The Serch for Camp B.B "): In the dark the competing HouseGuests must find their way through the forest back to Camp B.B. Along the way there are fake camps such as "Camp Bee Bee" or "Camp B-Ball". The first three HouseGuests are allowed re-entry to the game while the fourth will remained banished from the game. Cliff was the first to return to Camp B.B. followed by Kemi and Jessica and were allowed re-entry to the game. David however, remained banished from the game.

The HouseGuests then participated in the first Head of Household competition.

  • Head of Household ("Color Wars"): The competition was played in pairs. As Camp Director, Jackson did not participate and was allowed to chose the pairs. Each pair had to hang onto a log suspended in the sky. If someone falls off their log, they were eliminated. The HouseGuest who remained on their log the longest became the HoH. Christie stayed on the longest and became the first Head of Household.

HouseGuests begin speculating on who Christie will put up on the block. Meanwhile, alliances begin to form in the house making other HouseGuests suspicious. The HouseGuests are called to the backyard to compete in the Whacktivity Competition.

  • Whacktivity Competition ("Nightmare Comp: This Stinks"): In the backyard, HouseGuests are informed that over the next three weeks everyone will compete in a Whacktivity. Only five people will compete each week. The winner of each week will receive a special power. They are then allowed to chose the Whacktivity they wish to compete in. In week one the participants of the Nightmare Whacktivity competed. When the competition begins the competing HouseGuests must smell the three trashcans in front of them as well as other items and try to match the smell in their trashcan. Once they think they've identified the smell they must hang the identifier from the can and must buzz in once all three cans are labeled. The first HouseGuest to identify all three items will receive a special power. Cliff, Isabella, Kathryn, Nicole, and Ovi competed in the first week. No one correctly labeled all three cans in the first two rounds. At the end of the third round, Ovi correctly identified all three smells and won the competition.

Ovi received the nightmare power. The power allows him to make the current HoH rename their nominees for the week in the middle of the night once all others are asleep. The original nominees for the week are safe and cannot be nominated again. On Day 8, Christie nominated Cliff and Kathryn for eviction.

Ahead of the Power of Veto the HouseGuests picked players for the competition. The Head of Household, the two nominees, along with Sam, Jack, and Nicole participated. Big Brother 20 winner Kaycee Clark returned to the house to host the competition.

  • Power of Veto ("Food Fight"): This competition was played by HouseGuests one at a time, inside the Camp B.B Mess Hall the competing HouseGuest must attempt to catch as much food as they can as it falls from the sky. The more food caught gives the HouseGuests more points. The HouseGuest with the most points at the end of the competition won the PoV. Sam was the winner with 21 points and received the Golden Power of Veto.

Sam begins debating on whether he should used the PoV, meanwhile, Christie begins thinking of a potential replacement nominee if the veto is used. Sam used the Power of Veto to remove Cliff from the block. Christie then nominated Ovi as a replacement nominee.

The HouseGuests begin discussing final nominations and deciding who they want to evict. The nominated HouseGuests are given one last chance to try and convince their fellow HouseGuests to keep them in the game. The HouseGuests then participated in the live vote and eviction by voting on who they wished to evict from the house. On Day 15, by a unanimous vote of 12-0, Ovi was the first to be evicted from the Big Brother house. Following the eviction vote Julie informed the HouseGuests that Ovi had been evicted from the house. Before Ovi left the house the "Camp Comeback" twist was unleashed into the house. The twist allows the evicted HouseGuests to remain inside the house, the HouseGuests in camp comeback will live upstairs in a special room. They will continue to live inside but not participate in competitions or evictions. Once four HouseGuests are in camp comeback they will compete against each other for a chance to re-enter the game.

  • Head of Household ("BB Fireworks Camptacular"): In this competition HouseGuests will watch a fireworks display. Julie will then ask each HouseGuest a question to which the correct answer is either red, white or blue. If a HouseGuest answers a question incorrectly they will be eliminated from the competition. If they answer correctly they remain in the competition. The last HouseGuest in the competition will become the next HoH. Jack was the last HouseGuest in the competition and became the second Head of Household of the season.

Notes

  • ^Note 1 :   On Day 1, the HouseGuests voted for a Camp Director. The HouseGuests were told that the Camp Director would receive Immunity for the first week but would have to put other HouseGuests in danger of eviction. Jackson was elected as Camp Director. He was tasked with "banishing" 4 HouseGuests, who would compete to stay in the house. Jackson chose to banish Cliff, David, Jessica and Kemi and David lost the competition. As he was immune, Jackson was ineligible to compete in the first Head of Household Competition.
  • ^Note 2 :   On Day 15, Camp Comeback was introduced. David returned to the house, and the following 3 HouseGuests to be voted out of the game (Ovi, TBD, & TBD) remained in the house. After the fourth eviction, the Camp Comeback HouseGuests will compete to officially re-enter the game. The losing HouseGuests will leave the house and officially be evicted.

Reception

Critical response

Following the two-night season premiere viewers accused HouseGuest Jackson Michie of discriminating against race and age.[48] Michie received the "Camp Director" power and was required to choose four HouseGuests to banish.[49] Michie's choice to banish included the seasons only two black HouseGuests, a Latina plus-size model, along with the oldest person in the house.[50] Viewers then questioned the series for the Head of Household competition which occurred the same night and was named "Color War."[51]

Big Brother is a reality show about a group of people who live together At times, the Houseguests may reveal prejudices and other beliefs that CBS does not condone. Views or opinions expressed by Houseguests are those of the individuals speaking and do not represent the views or opinions of CBS. Viewer discretion is advised.

CBS disclaimer reportedly appearing more since the incident[52]

Once the 24/7 live feeds began some viewers began calling for CBS to remove HouseGuest Jack Matthews from the series.[53] Matthews was seen on the live feeds making vicious and violent remarks about another HouseGuest, Kemi Fakunle, behind her back.[54] About Fakunle, Matthews said that she is "fucking poison"; ahead of the Power of Veto competition he stated "Bitch, you're fucking going up and you can play your fuckin' veto, but I'm gonna fuck you up!"[55] Most notably Matthews stated "Fucking Kemi makes me want to fucking stomp a mud hole right through her chest."[54] Aside from this Matthews was also seen making other derogatory comments against other HouseGuests including Ovi Kabir who he called a "brown flame" and Jessica Milagros who he called a "maggot."[56] A Change.org petition was started in an attempt to get Matthews removed from the game for Fakunle's and others safety.[53] Matthews was warned by production about comments made and to prevent further such comments.[57] Meanwhile other live feed viewers state that the CBS disclaimer has appeared more since the incident.[52]
