Why Is ‘Big Brother 19’ Not Playing Tonight? ‘BB19’ Makes Way For Emmys Plus Details Of Two Hour Finale


Why isn’t Big Brother 19 on tonight? Well, it seems as if BB19 had to make way for the Emmys tonight. There was a special episode of Big Brother 19 screened on Friday because there was no episode scheduled for tonight. Tonight, instead of Big Brother 19, the 2017 Emmy Awards can be seen on CBS in Big Brother 19’s usual time slot. Fans shouldn’t think that Big Brother has deserted them, there is one more episode left set for Wednesday, September 20. Big Brother’s season finale will air in a two-hour finale where the jury will vote and the winner will walk away with the prize money of $500,000.

According to Big Brother Network, yesterday was Round 2 of the Final HOH competition. Josh and Christmas battled it out, but in the end Josh beat his opponent in a tight competition that took more than six hours to complete. The finale of Big Brother 19 will have Josh and Paul competing live for the final HOH crown, and then they will vote to evict one of the remaining houseguests. At least giving them until Wednesday to stew, will give the houseguests time to think through their strategy about who they will evict in the final episode.

The 69th annual Emmy Awards will he hosted by Stephen Colbert for the first time this year. The event will take place at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, and is held to recognize excellent service in the TV industry.
