Big Brother 20: August 16 episode preview, no HOH Competition

Big Brother 20 brings a new hour to CBS on Thursday night. The August 16 episode will focus on what took place after the Week 7 Veto Ceremony and finish up with another eviction vote.

At the end of the August 15 episode, Tyler Crispen hosted the Week 7 Power of Veto Ceremony. Tyler used the Power of Veto to save Angela Rummans from the block. Then, Haleigh Broucher, the current Head of Household, put Kaycee Clark back on the block. Big Brother 20 episode 23 will pick up from that point, with the final 10 houseguests deciding who will get evicted next. For this Eviction Ceremony, it is Kaycee vs Rockstar.

Time for Big Brother 20 flashbacks

The Veto Ceremony actually took place on August 12, so the show producers now have a lot of footage to work with. The episode will likely pick up right after Kaycee Clark was put back on the block and reveal a number of Diary Room sessions from the houseguests. The remaining members of the Level Six alliance (Tyler, Kaycee, Angela, and Brett Robinson) are definitely in a good position, but they need help to keep Kaycee in the BB20 house.

The Week 7 Eviction Ceremony

There are just seven votes that will decide between Kaycee or Rockstar heading to join the BB20 jury. Episode 23 will have a lot of time to focus on the votes and especially JC Mounduix, Scottie Salton, and Samantha Bledsoe. Those are the three people who Rockstar needs on her side to survive for another week, so they will likely take center stage as negotiations begin again.

There is going to be a lot of time to cover what took place in the BB20 house over the past week, as there is no Head of Household Competition during the August 16 episode. Instead, host Julie Chen will hint at an Endurance Challenge, with the majority of it set to take place on the live feeds Thursday night. That will provide a lot of excitement for the online subscribers, but it will leave CBS viewers without a lot of answers. Potential Big Brother 20 spoilers can be found on Inside the BB House as well.

The August 16 episode of Big Brother 20 gets started at 9/8c on CBS. It’s possible that some areas of the country could see the start time delayed, as there are three NFL preseason games taking place on Thursday night as well.
