Big Brother 24 is back tonight with a new episode starting at 8/7c as the house divides sending two groups, Big BroChella and Dyre Fest, in different directions as one will enjoy having bedrooms and a bathroom while the other, well, not so lucky. Yikes!
Thursday’s episode ended with Michael winning HOH and Terrance taking the Runner-Up spot as the secondary HOH. They would soon pick their teams for the split-house twist and head to their respection dwellings. If you can’t wait to find out who ended up on each team check our split house team spoilers now for the results.
Once the teams are set and they’ve settled into their dwellings, BroChella on the inside and Dyre Fest on the outside, we’ll get the build-up and reveal of the nominations (nom spoilers). Michael’s target was clear from the start this week, but what about Terrance? Watch to see which HG turns on the Leftovers in a bid to save his own game in the backyard.

Episode 2421 All New! HD From bigbrothernetwork.com: Tonight On Big Brother 24: Power of Veto Events
Big Brother 24 is back tonight with the Power of Veto episodes and it’s set to be a double dose as both the inside and outside halves of the house will need to face off for their own Veto winners. By the end of the night the noms will be set and we’re off to the Thursday Double Eviction event.
It’s been a little hectic to follow along with everything from the Feeds as the backyard has been in and out since Saturday night when a wall-yeller attempted to get messages across to the Dyre Fest HGs. With the Feeds down for the outside over the past few days we weren’t sure how things were looking for the target out there, but it was safe to say it probably wasn’t good. Sure enough the Feeds returned on Tuesday and we confirmed all the Veto meeting results.
With everything basically settled for this week it’s going to be a very intense HOH battle on Thursday night. This week tried its best to kill the season’s momentum, but hopefully it picks up its speed again after the next eviction.

Episode 2422 All New! HD From bigbrothernetwork.com: Tonight On Big Brother 24: Double Eviction & Split House Twist Ends
Tonight on Big Brother 24 it’s finally Double Eviction night as we close out the “what were they thinking” Split House twist that left us without Feeds for days thanks to the backyard dwellers open air setting. We’ll also be saying goodbye to the Leftovers.
The Leftovers alliance was too good at their efforts to last any longer as on the outside two of their numbers sit side by side on the Dyre Fest chopping block. Which of them will go and will the LOs pull off their smooth week on the inside at BroChella.
Overnight on the Feeds the indoor HGs had their sitdown with Jasmine to break the news and she took it well. There’s no way we’ll see that plan shift inside and I’m doubtful there’s any fate other than eviction in the cards for Joseph outside. The real question is how that news will be received by the indoor HGs.
BroChella’s LOs have already anticipated Joseph could be the target and they know it’s most likely going to be the work of Kyle who turned on a dime without even a hint of pressing need to further his own game. Who needs enemies in the Big Brother house when you’ve got an ally like Kyle! I’m expecting so good Feeds when things return tonight and it’ll all come down to who can pull off the HOH win. If the indoor LOs secure the win then watch for Turner to shift back and Kyle to become the next target. No pressure, HGs.

FOX
How does one of entertainment’s most visible celebrities… just disappear?
What really happened to beloved fitness icon Richard Simmons, who has not
been seen for more than eight years? There are many theories — his
housekeeper is holding him hostage, his beloved dog died and left him
devastated, his medical issues made it too difficult to continue working, he
was burnt out listening to other people’s problems, or maybe he was
transitioning to become a woman. Some of these are absolutely false…
others hold some weight. TMZ combed through the facts and spoke to the
people closest with him, including comedian Bruce Vilanch, Suzanne Somers,
Dr. Phil and Simmons’ longtime costume designer, Leslie Wilshire. In the
end, we have uncovered the answer – how a beloved icon just disappeared into
thin air in the all-new TMZ Special TMZ INVESTIGATES: WHAT REALLY HAPPENED
