Julie Chen Moonves hosts the reality hit series, which welcomes an all-new group of Houseguests, who are ready for more competitions, eliminations and so much House drama.

Never miss a moment of the drama, thanks to the Big Brother 25 Live Feeds, now streaming on Paramount+. Watch all the Houseguests in real time, as they clash, scheme and solidify alliances!

 

Big Brother follows a group of people living together in a house outfitted with 94 HD cameras and 113 microphones recording their every move 24 hours a day. Each week, someone will be voted out of the house, with the last remaining Houseguest receiving the grand prize of $750,000. Fans can watch the 24/7 live feed from inside house plus get exclusive content on Paramount+.

The reality show airs three episodes each week on CBS beginning Sunday, Aug. 6. Episodes will air 8-9 p.m. Sundays and Wednesdays and 9-10 p.m. Thursdays. The Thursday episodes feature the live eviction.

“This season’s cast includes a Deaflympics gold medalist, brand strategist, exterminator, geriatric physician, professional flutist, political consultant and a DJ from Australia, among others. This new group is in for a summer to remember, full of jaw-dropping moments and twists that will send the Houseguests spiraling into another universe,” CBS said.

CBS also said that “Big Brother legends Frankie Grande, Britney Haynes and Danielle Reyes ‘broke into’ the Big Brother house and unwittingly unleashed the season 25 twist. Cameras captured the ‘break-in’ and the moment the three BB alums, who all famously lost their seasons, rolled a ‘Time Laser’ into the house.

The incident has revealed their plan was to go back in time and change the outcome of their seasons. But something went horribly wrong, and they unleashed the Big Brother season 25 twist that will be fully revealed” during the first episode on Aug. 2.

The season 25 houseguests are:

• America Lopez, 27, a medical receptionist from Texas who lives in Brooklyn, New York
• Blue Kim, 25, a brand strategist from California who lives in New York, New York
