Big Brother 28 is now rolling out its episode calendar, and the pace is already giving fans plenty to talk about.

We’ve just met the BB28 cast, and this year’s lineup is loaded with reality TV veterans who instantly raise the stakes.

There’s even a familiar face from a previous season, with Angela Murray of BB26 back in the mix.

Also inside the house are Dee Valladares and Rick Devens from Survivor, plus Jason De Puy from RuPaul’s Drag Race, making this one of the most crossover-heavy casts in recent memory.

The Big Brother 28 episode schedule

New Big Brother episodes are set for Sundays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays all summer long, all airing at 8/7c on CBS. The season kicked off on July 9.

Meanwhile, Big Brother: Unlocked is also part of the lineup, arriving every other Friday at 8/7c on CBS. That companion series premiered on July 10.

• Thursday, July 9: BB28 season premiere at 8/7c (90 minutes).
• Friday, July 10: Big Brother: Unlocked debuts.
• Sunday, July 12: First Sunday episode at 8/7c (90 minutes).
• Wednesday, July 15: First Wednesday episode at 8/7c (90 minutes).
• Thursday, July 16: Possible first eviction at 8/7c (down to 60 minutes).
• Sunday, July 19: 8/7c (down to 60 minutes).
• Wednesday, July 22: 8/7c (90 minutes).

That first month already packs in a full wave of new content, and CBS clearly isn’t wasting any time building momentum. Later on, host Julie Chen Moonves will begin setting up Episode 1,000 — but before that milestone arrives, there’s a lot of game left to unfold. After such a strong premiere, producers will be hoping viewers keep showing up for every twist.

If you miss any episode live, Paramount+ will have it ready to stream later. The service also offers past seasons, including Angela’s run on BB26 and Rachel Reilly’s appearances on BB12, BB13, and BB27.

Paramount+ likewise features Survivor seasons for Rick Devens (38 and 50) and Dee Valladares (45 and 50).
