What Delayed Live Feed Start Date Means For Big Brother 27

Crucial Game Information May Be Missed

WhiletheBig Brother live feedshave always had differing start dates, the majority of the last seasons have seen the live feeds begin within two or three days of the houseguests moving into theBBhouse. While there’s almost always a delay on the feeds unless the houseguests move in live during the premiere,Big Brotherdoesn’t typically delay the feeds so long.

Some have speculated that thelive feeds are accommodatingBig Brother’sschedule, which for the last few seasons has revolved around a two-night premiere event that aired episodes back to back. This season,Big Brotherhas a 90-minute premiere on Thursday, followed by a second episode on Sunday, July 13.Many believe the live feeds hinged on that second episode.

Regardless,the delay will impact viewers' experience all season long as the majority of the first week of the houseguests' season will be thoroughly editedwithin the episodes.

Our Take On Big Brother 27 Delaying Live Feed Start Date

It’s A Tough Hit, But Will Resolve Over Time

Though theBig Brother27 live feeds starting nearly a week after the houseguests enter the house, which happens on Tuesday, July 8 ahead of the July 10 premiere, is a blow to the viewers, it should pan out throughout the season. ThoughBig Brotherfans will miss pivotal information in the first week of the game, live feed viewers will be able to regroup.

Despite knowing that there will be information viewers simply don’t have access to,Big Brotherfans should be able to copewith the loss as the rest of the season continues. WhileBBepisodes can be edited and unreliable,some are hopeful they’ll make up the difference with the episodes, which will hopefully reveal the drama ofBig Brother 27’sfirst week.
