If you want to get some more details about the schedule overall, just check out what CBS had to say in an official press release:
BIG BROTHER returns with its most programming hours ever, kicking off with a special 90‑minute premiere on Thursday, July 9 (8:00-9:30 PM, ET/PT), the return of BIG BROTHER: UNLOCKED on Friday, July 10 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) and a 90-minute Sunday episode on Sunday, July 12 (8:00-9:30 PM, ET/PT). Julie Chen Moonves returns as host. Paramount+ subscribers and Pluto TV viewers can continue to catch all the action on the BIG BROTHER live feeds.
Reaching a historic milestone as the first primetime series to hit 1,000 original episodes, BIG BROTHER returns for its 28th season. The season ushers in a landmark summer as Houseguests enter the iconic BIG BROTHER house, with unexpected moments and a season packed with twists and turns. After its premiere, the series will air Wednesdays (8:00-9:30 PM, ET/delayed PT), followed by hour-long shows on Thursdays, featuring live evictions, and Sundays (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/delayed PT).
Ultimately, all of this serves as another great reminder of the network’s commitment to the brand, and also launching it around the same time every year. This is about the same time the show launched in 2025, and it does make us think that we’re going to see it all transpire in a somewhat similar fashion this go-around.
