Many fans commented a post promoting the new episode of the CBS series.

The post was captioned “It’s only week three and so much has happened in the #BB26 house. Who’s going to shake things up this week!? See you guys tonight.”

Each slide featured one of the remaining contestants, including Tucker Des Laruriers, 30, Quinn Martin, 25, Rubina Bernabe, 35, Cedric Hodges, 21, T-Kor Clottey, 23, and Chelsie Baham, 27, but after golf delayed the network broadcast schedule, wrote one angry fan, “I vote to dump golf.”

“Big Brother is so much more important than golf, how can golf happen so late?” questioned another.

“@paramountplus @show time WTF, why isn’t Big Brother on the air now???? @bigbrothercbs” exclaimed a third.

Deeper into the comment thread, a viewer echoed the question, asking “WHY IS 60 MINUTES STILL HAPPENING?? It’s big brother time.”

“Coming here to say the same thing!!!!! Ughhhh!!!!” she added a second.

A third frantically asked: “Why isn’t the episode airing???”

Another commenter reaffirmed, “delayed due to golf,” while a fifth complained, “I think golf delayed everything.

“[CBS’s] Stories confirm that the delay is due to golf,” mentioned another.

WHAT IS THE HOLD-UP?

Further down in the comments, an impatient fan demanded, “I’m tired but I need this episode NOW.”

“Okay, I’m a woman with an agenda of my own [Big Brother] these golfers need to finish!!,” agreed another.

One person asked: “Any idea what time it will be?”

“The CBS Network Twitter post on the East Coast will not be until 10:32 p.m.,” one helpful commenter responded.

One fan complained: “This has been my complaint for years when I watch this show.

“Hey CBS!! this is why you’re losing ratings! Stick to the schedule!!!” demanded another.

A third wrote: “Every time 60 minutes pass during big brother time I feel a different kind of anger. Who watches 60 Minutes?!

“I DON’T CARE ABOUT THESE OTHER SHOWS, I NEED A BIG BROTHER,” exclaimed a fourth.

TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES

Last week, fans were furious after broadcast delays led to some viewers missing Thursday’s live eviction vote.

Many who tuned in via Paramount+ had difficulty watching the elimination due to a malfunction during the broadcast.

Thursday’s episode featured fierce competition in the AI ​​Arena followed by a high-stakes elimination.

However, as the episode aired, several fans who watched the long-running reality show had difficulty accessing the show.

Paramount+ subscribers turned to X to complain about interruptions to their service during the show.

The streamer’s issues resulted in many viewers missing out on voting and elimination during the broadcast, despite paying for access to live TV through the platform.

“@paramountplus why do I pay for live TV when I can’t even watch the shows I want when they’re on? You need to fix this,” criticized one subscriber who shared a video of what he saw while trying to tune in.

Despite clicking on the Big Brother season 26 live episode in the app, a broadcast of the New England Patriots and Jacksonville Jaguars preseason football game was shown.

Another Paramount+ user posted on social media: “@paramountplus why am I paying to watch a tornado warning instead of live Big Brother voting? [crying emoji].”

“Hey @paramountplus – if Big Brother is broadcasting in my time zone, I should be able to watch it on your app that I pay for, even if the local network chooses to play a football game between the two worst teams in the NFL,” criticized one third.

A fourth fan questioned: “@paramountplus what the hell is going on why can’t the DMC area watch Big Brother.”

Another exclaimed: “@paramountplus I PAID FOR YOUR SERVICE WHY CAN’T I WATCH @cbsbigbrother Online??????”
