Why is Big Brother season 25 starting late?

Joseph Abdin on Big Brother

After a long wait, fans finally know when Big Brother season 25 is arriving. The long-running reality show is set to premiere on August 2, almost a full month after its usual start time. That's leading many fans to wonder why Big Brother season 25 is starting late?

Traditionally, Big Brother premieres in early July. This has to do with the show’s format, as it requires about three solid months to go from a large cast of houseguests to the final two. It takes up a fair amount of primetime summer TV real estate, too, with three shows per week. (Avid fans can tune into the Big Brother House's 24/7 live feeds on Paramount Plus for even more action.)
