Big Brother 24 is the twenty-fourth season of the American reality television program Big Brother . The season premiered on July 6, 2022, on CBS in the United States and Global in Canada. [1] Hosted by Julie Chen Moonves, the show follows a group of contestants (known as HouseGuests), who live in a house together while being constantly filmed and having no communication with the outside world as they compete to win a grand prize of $750,000. [2]

The season ran for 82 days, ending on September 25, 2022. [3] Taylor Hale was crowned the winner, defeating Monte Taylor. Hale became the first black female HouseGuest to win, as well as the second black HouseGuest to win in the main edition of the show; she was also voted America's Favorite HouseGuest, becoming the first winner to also claim this prize. [4] On September 25, 2022, CBS renewed the series for a twenty-fifth season. [5]

Format

Big Brother follows a group of contestants, known as HouseGuests, who live inside a custom-built house outfitted with cameras and microphones recording their every move 24 hours a day. [6] The HouseGuests are sequestered with no contact with the outside world. [7] During their stay, the HouseGuests share their thoughts on their day-to-day lives inside the house in a private room known as the Diary Room. [8] [9] Each week, the HouseGuests compete in competitions in order to win power and safety inside the house. At the start of each week, the HouseGuests compete in a Head of Household (abbreviated as "HOH") competition. [10] The winner of the HoH competition is immune from eviction and selects two HouseGuests to be nominated for eviction. [11] Six HouseGuests are then selected to compete in the Power of Veto (abbreviated as "PoV") competition: the reigning HoH, the nominees, and three other HouseGuests chosen by random draw. The winner of the PoV competition has the right to either revoke the nomination of one of the nominated HouseGuests or leave them as is. If the veto winner uses this power, the HoH must immediately nominate another HouseGuest for eviction. The PoV winner is also immune from being named as the replacement nominee. [12] On eviction night, all HouseGuests vote to evict one of the nominees, though the Head of Household and the nominees are not allowed to vote. This vote is conducted in the privacy of the Diary Room. In the event of a tie, the Head of Household casts the tie-breaking vote. The nominee with the most votes is evicted from the house. [13] The last nine evicted HouseGuests comprise the Jury and are sequestered in a separate location following their eviction and ultimately decide the winner of the season. The Jury is only allowed to see the competitions and ceremonies that include all of the remaining HouseGuests; they are not shown any interviews or other footage that might include strategy or details regarding nominations. [14] The viewing public is able to award an additional prize by choosing "America's Favorite HouseGuest." All evicted HouseGuests are eligible to win this award except for those who either voluntarily leave or are forcibly removed for rule violations. [15]

HouseGuests

The HouseGuests for the twenty-fourth season were revealed on July 5, 2022. [16] US Weekly published a series of cast interviews on the same day. [17] Prior to the reveal, CBS aired a teaser featuring various voice clips from the HouseGuests. [18] The cast includes Miss Michigan USA 2021 and Miss USA 2021 competitor Taylor Hale. [19] Marvin Achi, a 28-year-old from Houston, Texas, was among the sixteen HouseGuests initially slated to be on the season, but was removed from the cast and replaced by Joseph Abdin. [20]

Sixteen HouseGuests entered the house and claimed tickets, which assigned them to one of three challenges for the first Head of Household (HoH) competition. Paloma, Jasmine, Monte, Kyle, and Nicole were sent to the porta-potties where they heard a series of audio conversations with repeating numbers, and had to determine which number was said most often. Monte won the challenge. Taylor, Turner, Brittany, Joseph, and Terrance were sent to the piercing tent where they had to accurately clip pieces of jewelry to their faces according to a guide. Turner won the challenge. Michael, Alyssa, Daniel, Indy, and Ameerah were sent to the merchandise stand, where they held onto shirts as they were lifted from the ground, and would be eliminated if they fell. Daniel won the challenge. Pooch received the Backstage Boss ticket and did not compete. Monte, Turner, and Daniel then competed to assemble a puzzle. Daniel completed the puzzle first and became HoH. Julie then revealed that Pooch would be sent "backstage" for the week, could not be nominated for eviction, was ineligible to compete in the week's competitions, and could not vote on eviction night. Additionally, he selected Alyssa, Brittany, and Paloma to join him.

After the HOH competition, houseguests began socializing for the first time. Paloma formed an all girls alliance with Alyssa, Brittany, Indy, and Jasmine called "Girls Girls".

Following the nomination ceremony, Daniel assured Terrance that Michael is his intended target. Michael attempted to find people who would take him down if they won the Power of Veto (PoV) before coming to the conclusion that he needs to win it for himself. Players were then chosen for the PoV competition: Daniel, Michael, Terrance, Indy, Turner, and Ameerah. In the competition, HouseGuests competed two at a time by collecting metal rings on a foam lance while on artificial horses. After a tiebreaker round, Michael defeated Ameerah and won the Power of Veto. The "Girls Girls" alliance began to worry about possible alliances forming between male members of the house, much to Taylor's dismay. Taylor approached Monte and Joseph about their worry, who then talked to Paloma about Taylor's allegations. Paloma denied them and pitched the idea of evicting Taylor. On Day 6, Michael used the PoV to remove himself from the block and Daniel nominated Taylor in his place.

Taylor and Paloma speak after the nomination ceremony and Taylor begins trying to secure votes to keep her safe. Following a conversation with Ameerah, Taylor attempts to clear things up with Monte and Paloma. On Day 8, Paloma voluntarily quit the game after experiencing mental health struggles in the house. The other HouseGuests were informed of her decision and take part in a group prayer for her. Julie reveals that the backstage twist would have culminated in an eviction competition between one of the nominees, voted on by HouseGuests eligible for voting, and one of the backstage HouseGuests, decided on by a viewer vote. The loser of the competition would have been immediately evicted. However, due to Paloma leaving, both the backstage twist and the first eviction was cancelled. The HouseGuests then participated in the next Head of Household competition, which was split into two parts. In "Bye Bye Backstage" HouseGuests competed in pairs to race across an obstacle course in an attempt to "leave" the backstage area. Michael, Taylor, Joseph, Ameerah, Jasmine, Kyle, and Monte were the first seven to make it to the other side in each competition and progressed to the second part.

Jasmine receives treatment for a rolled ankle she obtained during the first part of the HoH competition while other members of the house rethink their alliances with Paloma gone. Daniel feels at risk because none of the three people he nominated during his HoH reign were evicted. The seven HouseGuests that made it to the second part of the HoH competition then competed in the "BB Pie Eating Contest." In each round competitors were asked true or false questions about decorations inside the house and had to answer by searching through their pie, using only their mouths, for a T or F. Each round the pies got larger in size and the first HouseGuests to answer correctly moved to the next round. In the final round, Jasmine answered correctly first against Michael and became the next Head of Household. Pooch wants to be nominated as a pawn and so that Taylor can be backdoored. Meanwhile, Ameerah proposes to Alyssa and Michael that they evict Pooch instead by supporting his plan but not using the veto on him. Jasmine however, doesn't trust Pooch and therefore dislikes his plan. On Day 10, Jasmine nominated Pooch and Taylor for eviction.

The Girls Girls alliance, with Taylor, explain to Jasmine their plan to evict Pooch. Jasmine agrees as long as nominations stay the same after the veto. Taylor plans to still win the veto for herself to guarantee her own safety. Pooch and Joseph develop a significant "bromance" from their time spent together in the house. Players were then picked for the Power of Veto competition. Ameerah, Michael, and Terrance were chosen to compete alongside Jasmine, Pooch, and Taylor, as the Head of Household and two nominees. Taylor hopes that Michael will use the veto on her if he wins, while Jasmine doesn't want have to name a replacement nominee. In the "Mermaid Fest" Power of Veto competition the competitors, dressed as mermaids, used their heads to push a pearl over a series of ramps, and then into a hole at the end of a bowling lane. Michael was the first person to collect a pearl into each of his three holes and received the Power of Veto. On Day 13, Michael chose not to use the Power of Veto, leaving Jasmine's nominees the same.

8287"Episode 7"
Pooch and Taylor continue to both believe that they are just pawns and won't be evicted. Meanwhile, a "showmance" begins forming between Alyssa and Kyle causing Alyssa to inform him about the Girls Girls alliance. Taylor discusses with Ameerah, wanting to backdoor Monte in a future week. Because of their alliance, Ameerah tells Monte what Taylor wants to do, and the two discuss with Nicole whom they should ultimately vote to evict. Pooch and Taylor are each given one last chance to attempt to save themselves by giving a speech. On Day 16, by a unanimous vote of twelve, Pooch was the first HouseGuest to be evicted from the house. In his exit interview with Julie, Pooch stated that he underestimated the women in the house. The "Festie Besties" twist was then introduced to the game. Julie informed the HouseGuests that going forward, they would be playing the game with a partner, known as a "Bestie". The partner of the HouseGuest that won Head of Household will be safe for the week; HouseGuests will also be nominated and play for Power of Veto in pairs, but evicted independently. HouseGuests then participated in the next Head of Household competition. HouseGuests have to hold down buttons on a "lighter" until the music playing stops when they must sit down in a chair as fast as possible. The last HouseGuest to sit down, or those who let go of their button before the music stopped, in each round were eliminated from the competition and had to choose a partner.
Turner was the first HouseGuest to sit down in the final round and became the next Head of Household. He was then paired with Jasmine, the last person remaining without a partner, guaranteeing her safety for the week. Turner considers nominating Ameerah or Nicole, because he views them both as threats and wants to get revenge for Pooch's eviction. The Po's Pack alliance, consisting of Alyssa, Nicole, Ameerah, Kyle, Michael, and Monte, agree to prioritize the alliance since they are all paired with members outside of it. Alyssa and Indy were chosen to be have-nots for the week by Jasmine. Nicole wants Turner to nominate Brittany and Michael and eventually be nominated herself, so that the Po's Pack can backdoor Taylor. Turner ultimately sets his sights on Brittany and Michael or Nicole and Taylor. On Day 17, Turner nominated Brittany and Michael for eviction.

Having been picked to compete with Taylor in the Veto competition, Nicole broke down crying, agonizing over whether to throw the competition. The house was worried about this emotional display, coming so soon after Paloma's departure, and Taylor tried to assure Nicole that she would support whatever decision she made. Nicole interpreted this as a hint to quit the game, and she angrily related the episode to other HouseGuests, including Daniel, who confronted Taylor, accusing her of having caused Paloma to quit the game and of trying to do the same with Nicole. Taylor was left in tears. For the Veto competition, each team needed to construct a puzzle on top of a pole. As one team member ran for the pieces, the other was lifted upwards. The first team to complete the puzzle would win the Power of Veto. Just before the competition started, Jasmine fainted due to her fear of heights. After she regained consciousness, Jasmine and Turner opted out of the competition, leaving just two teams to battle for the Power of Veto. Nicole did not need to work too hard to throw the competition, and Michael and Brittany won the Power of Veto. After the Veto competition, Taylor is distraught but is told by Monte to meet in the HOH room later that night. Joseph, Turner, Michael, Taylor, Brittany, Monte, and Kyle recognize they are on the outs in the game and band together to form the Leftovers alliance and plan to blindside and evict Ameerah.

Brittany and Michael used the PoV to remove themselves from the block. Turner then named Ameerah and Terrance as replacement nominees, coming as a shock to most of the Po's Pack alliance. Terrance requested that they vote to evict him rather than Ameerah, but the Leftovers' alliance believed they had the numbers to evict Ameerah. Ameerah and Terrance were each given a chance to speak as an attempt save themselves. On Day 23, by a vote of 7–4, with Alyssa, Indy, Jasmine, and Nicole voting to evict Terrance, Ameerah was evicted from the Big Brother house. Julie then informed the nominees that each week, the surviving Besties would be able to join another group, becoming a trio, but that all other aspects of the twist would still be in play. Terrance opted to join Joseph and Monte. The HouseGuests then participated in the next HoH competition, based on the upcoming film The Invitation . 1,500 envelopes fell from the air and HouseGuests searched them to find an "invitation" to the second part of the competition. The first eight to do so were allowed to move forward. Jasmine was the first to find an invitation, followed by Terrance and Brittany.

Kyle wanted to use the veto on Alyssa, but the Michael and Brittany convince the Leftovers that it was best to leave the current nominees on the block to protect their alliance next week, as Brittany and Michael are the only Festie Besties not insulated by a pawn. Just before the veto ceremony, Monte tells Daniel and Nicole that the veto should not be used because the votes to save Nicole may not be there. Thinking Monte is lying, Daniel and Nicole decide to go against the HOH's wishes, though this means Daniel is ultimately backdooring his closest ally.

Also, the showmance heats up between Alyssa and Kyle after the veto was used to take Alyssa off the block, even though Kyle and his alliance were intending to take Alyssa out.

Michael won the competition and selected Turner, Alyssa and Taylor to see the movie with him.

Michael planned to use the veto on his ally Brittany, and after suspecting that Kyle was in on a plan to backdoor him or Monte, they decide to tell the house about Kyle's suggestion to consider creating an all-white alliance. They first inform Monte and Taylor, asking if they are comfortable with this issue coming to light. Brittany and Michael inform Alyssa and then Turner, hoping to make Kyle the replacement nominee. However, a misunderstanding by Terrance accidentally tips off Kyle what is going on. Alyssa informs Kyle of the situation, but he denies the accusation and fears for the repercussions to his game and life after Big Brother.

Kyle confronts Brittany about the accusation, denying he suggested an all-white alliance and wondering why she did not address him first. Brittany reminded him of her discomfort to the idea which caused him to double down, and she struggled with how to handle this information. Kyle later speaks to Monte and Terrance to explain himself. A tearful Monte expresses his feeling betrayed since he was consistently loyalty to Kyle from early in the game. Terrance explains that Kyle's biases ended Joseph's game despite him fighting for Kyle.

Later, Monte questions the convenient timing of the revelation despite Brittany and Michael being aware for weeks. A house meeting is called to openly talk through the situation. Kyle confesses again and acknowledges that his sheltered upbringing has left him with unconscious biases that he has to work through. He points out that Brittany and Michael seemed to be on board with the plan rather than being direct about their discomfort. Brittany retorts that they never agreed to it, and Michael says that Kyle's plan of action was not acceptable. Terrance pushes back, feeling this was used as game strategy due to them withholding this from those who would be affected by it. They defend that they wanted to wait until after the house was reuniting, but Terrance reminds them that knew this well before the split. Monte and Taylor express concern and love for Kyle and want to help him learn and grow by addressing racial biases rather than deny and avoid the issue. Kyle respectfully declares his game over and asks the house not to isolate him but to be transparent with him moving forward.

At the veto ceremony, Michael used the veto on Brittany. Turner named Kyle the replacement nominee. Kyle was later evicted unanimously.

Michael wins his 6th Power of Veto, breaking the single season record for Vetos and tying the single season competition record.

Monte uses the veto on Alyssa, and Turner names Michael the replacement nominee to "open up first place". Michael makes a last minute attempt to stay by exposing his closest ally Brittany.

  2. In Episode 34, the final three HouseGuests looked back over their time in the Big Brother house. Flashbacks included clips from previous days in the house, while the current day in the house was 79.

Twists

Backstage Boss

On Night 1, one HouseGuest randomly selected the Backstage Boss Pass. This player would be granted immunity for the week, but could not be nominated, lost eligibility to participate in the week's competitions, and could not vote on eviction night. This player also had to choose three other HouseGuests to join them Backstage. These HouseGuests would also be safe from nomination, lost eligibility to participate in the week's competitions, and could not vote on eviction night. However, the three Backstage HouseGuests were not granted immunity and would still be eligible for eviction. On eviction night, the HouseGuest voted off by the house would have gone in a head-to-head battle against one of the Backstage HouseGuests. An online public vote was held for America to grant one of the three Backstage HouseGuests immunity from eviction for the week. The loser of the competition between the house evictee and the selected Backstage HouseGuest would immediately become evicted.

Pooch ended up claiming the Backstage Boss Pass and as a result was required to select three HouseGuests to join him Backstage. Pooch selected Alyssa, Brittany, and Paloma to join him. Brittany won the majority of the public vote and would have been granted immunity for the week had the twist not been cancelled. Since Paloma chose to leave the game, the twist was cancelled.

Festie Besties

Starting in Week 3, the HouseGuests competed in sets, similarly to the Duos Twist in season 13. The HouseGuest who was named Head of Household earned immunity for their Besties, and was obligated to nominate another set of Besties for eviction. Three sets of Besties would compete for the Power of Veto: the HOH's set, the nominated set, and another set selected by random draw. Only one person from the winning set needed to decide to use the Power of Veto in order to save the nominated set of Besties. Should that happen, the entire set of Besties would be saved, forcing the HoH to nominate another set as replacements. After each eviction, the surviving Bestie chose a new set of Besties to join. The sets are listed below.

Split House Double Eviction

Following Week 6's eviction, the house was split into two groups of five that had no interaction for the entire week. The winner of the HOH competition became the HOH for Big BroChella, occurring in the house, while the second place finisher became HOH of Dyre Fest, occurring outside. The remaining houseguests were split via a school yard pick by the respective HOHs. A full week of events played out for each group, with their own competitions, nominations, and evictions. Ultimately, two HouseGuests were evicted at the end of Week 7. The groups are listed below:

Notes
  1. From weeks 3 to 5, the HouseGuests played in sets known as "Festie Besties". Besties were nominated together and should the veto be used, the set would be removed from the block and be replaced by another set of Besties. On eviction night, the HouseGuest who survived eviction chose another set of Besties to join.
  2. Following Indy's eviction, the HouseGuests were split into two groups of five that had no interaction for the entire week. One group, Big BroChella, lived inside the house for the week, while the other, Dyre Fest, lived outside in the backyard. A full week of events played out for each group, with their own competitions, nominations, and evictions.
  3. This week was a double eviction week. Following the first eviction, the remaining HouseGuests played a week's worth of games, including Head of Household and veto competitions, and nomination, veto and eviction ceremonies, during the live show, culminating in a second eviction for the week.
  4. As the vote was tied, the Head of Household cast the tie-breaking vote.
  5. As Head of Household, Monte chose to evict Turner.
  6. 1 2 3   Pooch selected three HouseGuests to be sent "backstage": Alyssa, Brittany, and Paloma. They could not be nominated for eviction, lost their eligibility to compete in the week's competitions, and were ineligible to vote on eviction night. Had the eviction gone ahead as planned, the HouseGuests would have voted for one of the nominees to face off against one of the backstage HouseGuests in a challenge, with the loser being evicted from the house. It was announced that Brittany had won the online public vote against Alyssa and Paloma, which would have granted her immunity from eviction.
  7. 1 2 3 4 This HouseGuest's Bestie won Head of Household, granting them immunity for the week.
  8.   For drawing the Backstage Boss ticket on day 1, Pooch was sent "backstage" and was granted immunity for the entire week. As a result, he could not be nominated for eviction, was ineligible to compete in the week's competitions, and would have been ineligible to vote on eviction night.
  9. Paloma left the game on day 8. Since she was one of the HouseGuests eligible for eviction, the eviction planned for day 9 was cancelled.

Production

Development

Big Brother 24 is co-produced by production companies Endemol Shine North America and Fly On The Wall Entertainment. The season was first confirmed following the conclusion of the previous season in a joint announcement that also confirmed that Celebrity Big Brother would be revived for a third season. [58] [59] Host Julie Chen Moonves returned for the season along with Allison Grodner and Rich Meehan who serve as executive producers. Casting for the season started in February 2022 and concluded sometime around June 2022. [60] [61] As had been the case since Big Brother 22 , open-call auditions were not held for this season. Jesse Tannenbaum returned to head the casting efforts for Big Brother 24. [62]

On June 1, 2022, CBS announced that the season would premiere on July 6, 2022, with confirmation on June 15, 2022, of a 90-minute live premiere. [63] [64] Prior to the season premiere, it was widely speculated that live audiences would return in a full capacity following two seasons of absence due to previous pandemic restrictions. While the premiere and first five evictions took place behind closed doors, [65] [66] a live audience returned for the remainder of the season, starting with the live eviction on August 18, 2022. [67] Key art for the season was released on June 15, 2022. [68]

Prize

The winner of the series, determined by the previously evicted HouseGuests, wins $750,000 while the runner-up receives $75,000. The HouseGuest selected as America's Favorite HouseGuest receives $50,000. [62]

Production design

The mid-century styled living room. Big Brother 24 House.png
The mid-century styled living room.

The house is located at the Radford Studio Center in Los Angeles, California. As with previous seasons, the house is outfitted with 94 HD cameras and more than 113 microphones. [59] Photos and a video tour of the house were released by CBS on July 5, 2022. Alternatively known as the "BB Motel", [63] Julie Chen Mooves described the house's theme as a "colorful, desert oasis inspired by Palm Springs, and a blast from the past, mid-century style." [69] A golf-themed bedroom has mini golf cart models lined along the walls, with the beds with headboards composed of AstroTurf. A second bedroom is decorated with details alluding to the car designs of the 1950s, including portraits of the car designs and beds with headboards composing of vintage car dashboards. The Space Age-themed bedroom features hanging models of Venus, Earth and Saturn. The Have-Not room resembles a drained pool, with a slide and inflatables being placed on the room.

Reception

Critical responses

Mistreatment of Taylor Hale

Following the launch of the show's live feeds, a majority of the HouseGuests received criticism for their behavior towards Taylor Hale. Viewers noted multiple lies made about Hale, along with several comments that displayed racially charged microaggressions, acts of colorism, conscious bias, and unconscious assumptions regarding Hale's appearance and personality. [70] [71] [72]

Julie Chen Moonves weighed in. "Microaggressions are real and they happen. I don't think most people, when they are committing it, that they are even aware of what they're doing. I think that with the live feeds it is easy," Chen said. "I think what we need to do is ask ourselves, 'Who am I — who is anyone — to judge somebody else?'". [73] She also addressed those that were critical of the HouseGuests on social media: "It's so interesting that you use the term 'mob mentality.' Because isn't that what Twitter has done? Aren't you all being hypocrites? There has been this mob mentality created against people in the house, who viewers feel have not been kind to Taylor. I think anytime you're nominated, it'll bring you to tears... It hurts. It hurts and I have sympathy for her. I have sympathy for everyone in that house. It's not easy". [73]

Daniel Durston's outburst and disparaging comments towards Taylor Hale were heavily criticized by the viewer audience. Featured on episode 9, Durston verbally attacked Hale in defense of Nicole Layog, who misinterpreted Hale's support of her emotional breakdown as a hint to quit the game. After Layog vented about the situation to the other HouseGuests, Durston confronted a confused Hale and accused her of causing HouseGuest Paloma Aguilar's exit from the show. Blaming Hale for Aguilar's mental health, Durston tells Hale, "You can f*** right off" and not to talk to him until the show's live finale. The confrontation brought Hale to tears with no one to publicly defend her. Prior to his outburst, Durston was also criticized for claiming, according to the live feeds, that Taylor isn't a good person and she "doesn't deserve to live normal." After his eviction during Week 5, Durston addressed his treatment of Hale in an interview with Entertainment Weekly . "Leaving the house, obviously it sits terrible with me. That's not how I want to be portrayed," Durston said. [74] He also claimed that he would watch the show back to "correct [his] wrongs." [74]

Kyle Capener's racial optics

Viewers criticized Kyle Capener for attempting to create a racial divide among the contestants. [75] During Week 4's live footage, Capener expressed fear in a potential alliance developing between the minorities in the house, labeling them as "Cookout 2.0.", referring to Big Brother 23 's all-black six-person alliance. [76]

Julie Chen Moonves addressed Capener's comments, deeming them as "game paranoia". She states, "You also have to remember, [Hale] told her whole alliance she would not nominate [Davis] because she refuses to part of evicting another Black woman. That might have steered [Capener]'s mind into thinking what if there is a secret alliance like the Cookout this season. Beyond that, I don't think there's much more to it." [77]
