Big Brother 24 — A Two Hour Disaster

by Lisa Marie Bowman on August 18, 2022

After all the hype, tonight’s 2-hour episode of Big Brother was a definite let-down.  We got 70 minutes of filler.  When they finally got to the vote, it went pretty much as expected.  Michael gave Indy a sympathy vote but everyone else voted to evict her.  Before she left, Indy gave another one of her long, pointless speeches.  That may have made Indy feel better about getting voted out but, for those of us who just wanted to get on to the HoH comp, it was frustrating.

Indy left the House convinced that Kyle was solely responsible for her eviction because he refused to use the veto.  However, during the goodbye messages, Michael told Indy all about the Leftovers and let her know that she had been the target from the start.  Indy looked stunned.  How clueless are the people in the House?

We finally got to the new twist.  For this upcoming week, there will be two Head of Households and the remaining houseguests will be split into two groups of four.  One group will live in the House while the other group will live in the backyard (where the temperature is going to be 90 degrees all week).  The two groups will have no interaction for the next 7 days.  Each HoH will nominate two people from their group for eviction.  On Thursday, this will lead to a double eviction.

Michael won the HoH comp and Terrence was the runner-up.  Michael will be the inside HoH while Terrence will be the outdoor HoH.  When the show ended, Michael and Terrence were preparing to pick the members of their group.

And now, we’re just waiting for the feeds to come back so we know who is going to be living where.

I’m not sure why tonight’s episode needed to be two hours.  Here’s my guess.  I bet that Big Brother was originally planning to do a double eviction tonight but, at the last minute, they decided to go with the split house twist.  But, since they already had that two-hour time slot, they basically just filled it in with whatever they could.  Still, it’s hard not to think that they could have trimmed a minute or two from all that filler and at least allowed us to watch as Michael and Terrence picked their houseguests.

Oh well.  The split house twist at least seems like it could be interesting.  We’ll see it how it all plays out.  For now, Indy is the first member of our jury.

You’re right, was a waste of time tonight.

I wish that they would have let us pick the split. You know it will get split by alliances, but then again-2 will have to be on the block, with one going home, so that will trim down the alliance.

I did love Taylor, however now the real Taylor is coming out, who wears high heel shoes with their bathing suit but models, she is not modeling but on a reality show, and she was head of households so it was her place to grab veto , so get over Kyle not using veto because you wanted a trip that got taken away. Oh well I got that out, and last night wasn’t all that spectacular except maybe the split. And I thought Julie would have to tell Indy to come on out of the house 😂
