Big Brother 27 final four: next episode, live feeds, and how to watch

Big Brother fans won’t see a new episode tonight, as CBS has scheduled the next installment of Season 27 for Wednesday, Sept. 24 at 10:00 p.m. ET on CBS and Paramount+ Premium. The move comes as the competition narrows to the final four houseguests and audiences look ahead to the live showdown that will determine the winner of the season.

The upcoming run of episodes will steer toward the Sept. 28 finale, with four hours of episodes spread across the days ahead. Big Brother Season 27 Episode 36 is set for Wednesday, September 24 at 10:00 p.m. ET, followed by Episode 37 on Thursday, Sept. 25 at 8:00 p.m. ET, and Episode 38 on Friday, Sept. 26 at 8:00 p.m. ET. The finale is scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 28 at 8:30 p.m. ET. The live feeds, a popular option for fans who want more than the broadcast episodes, remain available on Paramount+. If you don’t have a Paramount+ subscription, you can also stream the feeds for free on Pluto TV.

For viewers who want to watch new Big Brother episodes as they air, CBS, CBS.com, or an active Paramount+ Premium subscription will get the job done. Paramount+ offers two subscription plans: the ad-supported Essential plan at $7.99 per month and the ad-free Premium plan at $12.99 per month, which includes live CBS and Showtime. New subscribers can take advantage of a seven-day free trial. In addition to direct streaming, new episodes are available for next-day streaming for Paramount+ Essential subscribers. Other live-TV streaming services—fuboTV, DIRECTV, Sling TV, YouTube TV, and Hulu + Live TV—also carry Big Brother in some capacity.

Subscribers who want to pair Paramount+ Premium with other streaming accounts can add Paramount+ Premium to Prime Video or Hulu for an additional $12.99 per month. CBS and Paramount’s distribution extends across platforms, making the show accessible to a broad audience through multiple pathways each week.

The timing of Big Brother’s return arrives amid a busy week for reality TV fans. NBC’s The Voice has returned with new episodes, while CBS is premiering Survivor’s latest season on Wednesday. ABC is bringing back The Golden Bachelor on Sept. 24, and other ongoing or new reality series include Dancing with the Stars (ABC/Hulu), America’s Got Talent (NBC/Peacock), Project Runway (Freeform/Hulu), The Amazing Race (CBS/Paramount+), and Hell’s Kitchen (FOX). The slate means fans can expect a broad reality-TV news cycle and a number of cross-channel viewing options as the season closes.

For followers of Big Brother, the key next steps are to tune in on CBS or Paramount+ Premium on Sept. 24 for the first post-final four episode, and to keep an eye on the following days for the finale coverage and live-feeds updates. With the final four arrangement, the competition intensifies as players contend for immunity and jury votes, and fans around the country weigh in on social media as the episodes unfold. CBS and Paramount+ continue to emphasize broad accessibility for the live feeds and on-demand options, ensuring that both casual viewers and die-hard fans can track the action leading to the finale.
