RHAP: We Know Big Brother

BB28 Monday Live Feed Update July 13, 2026

Big Brother 28 brings big moves as alliances shift and eviction plans pick up steam. Host Taran, joined by Brian Scally, recaps day six in the house on this Live Feed Update. The tension is high as HoH Dee has to pick a replacement after Mallory wins Veto, and the house scrambles to figure out where the votes will land.

Dee first nominates Mallory, Taylor, and Yash, but when Mallory wins Veto, Dee leans towards putting up Ashley as the replacement. The reasoning centers around the original premiere challenge groups, but there’s plenty of pushback and debate about which nominee should actually go. Taylor works the house aggressively for promises and support, while Ashley becomes more active in her gameplay after being warned she’ll likely hit the block. The vets and their close allies—the “crossovers”—focus on making “parachute” alliances by picking non-vets to be their public allies and decoys, while new groups like Mama’s Angels (Rome, Jason, LaTrice) form on the opposite side. In the middle, Kamu and Chuk are strategizing how to keep shields in place and manage the gender numbers.

Taran points out Taylor’s direct approach in locking up votes and how it could backfire or cement her status.

Drew pitches the parachute strategy, getting Barrett to link with Mallory as a public duo.

Dee shares her dislike for Haley and takes a risk by leaking info to Rome, which could expose her.

Jason keeps pushing the anti-vet agenda and questions production’s edit, hoping to swing others his way.

The target keeps moving between Taylor, Ashley, and Yash as alliances and motives shift throughout the day.

With the replacement nominee still pending and red corner alliances disagreeing about who to evict, can Dee’s crew keep control or will the power start to slip? Catch the full breakdown to hear exactly how the game is shifting in the Big Brother 28 house.

BB28 Sunday Nominations Ep Recap, Week 1

Big Brother 28 is off to a fast and strategic start as the house settles into the tension between returning players and new faces. Rob Cesternino is joined by Taran Armstrong, Aman Adwin, and Mary Kwiatkowski for this recap episode, where they break down all the major alliances, competitions, and social shakeups from the first big weekend in the house.

The panel digs into how HOH Dee Valladares sets the tone by nominating Yash Patel, Taylor Brown, and Mallory Aurichio, with Ashley Trail joining them as a pawn after Mallory grabs the Veto. Much of the discussion centers on the “crossovers” alliance led by returnees Dee, Rick Devens, and Angela Murray, who recruit Drew Campbell and Barrett Pfeiffer to their tight five. Meanwhile, the “red corner” group, Kamuela “Kamu” Kirk, Haley Thogmartin, and Chuk Anyanwu, believe they’re running the game, showing just how layered and secretive this season’s gameplay is becoming.

Taran compares how early-game alliances can change quickly and how being brought in last isn’t always fatal in Big Brother.

Aman highlights Dee’s strategy of overlapping alliances and how Rick Devens’s openness with information could make him a wildcard.

Mary dives into Chuk’s awkward gender-based pitch to Haley and the “fun fact” segment about Ashley never eating a burger.

The panel discusses how Jason De Puy is quietly rallying an anti-vet group, but wonders if the newbies will rally before the vets take control.

As alliances form and information spreads, will the new players wake up to the quiet steamroll forming, or are the returnees set for a smooth ride? Catch the episode for all the latest Big Brother 28 strategy talk and drama!

BB28 Saturday Live Feed Update July 11, 2026

Big Brother 28 kicks off with alliances taking shape and uncertainty swirling around the first nominations. Host Taran Armstrong delivers a detailed recap in this first Live Feed Update of the season, walking through the opening days on the live feeds as Dee Valladares takes the first HoH, immediately putting the spotlight on house social divides and rookie gameplay.

The episode dives into how Dee Valladares earned HoH and nominated Taylor Brown, Mallory Aurichio, and Yash Patel, highlighting the fallout among houseguests. Dee spreads out the risk by nominating one person from each original team. The house’s shifting sand becomes more obvious as alliances begin to form but remain unclear, and players like Haley Thogmartin and Kamuela “Kamu” Kirk face suspicion for spending lots of time in the HoH room. Mallory Aurichio emerges as a likely target according to some, while Yash Patel and Taylor Brown look to keep safe by playing under the radar. The trio of Mallory, Melody Morris, and Lyric Medeiros is flagged as a potential threat, while Melody quickly distances herself from Mallory to avoid becoming a target herself. Social capital and perception already play big roles, with players like Barrett Pfeiffer, Angela Murray, and Drew Campbell sitting in strong but subtle positions, while Rome Seymour and Lyric Medeiros spark the season’s first showmance.

The house already feels divided between Dee’s loose grouping—possibly including veterans like Rick Devens, Angela Murray, and others—and a set of outsiders. Will Dee’s nominations set the tone for the first real split, or can a wildcard shake things up with the upcoming Veto?

BB28 Unlocked Week 1 Recap

Big Brother 28 Unlocked kicks off with the whole house buzzing over Dee Valladares’ power move as the first Head of Household, setting the tone for the new season. Rob Cesternino is joined by Chappell and Brandon Donlon for a lively episode recap and live feed chat, diving into the episode’s big reveals and social shake-ups.

After being revealed, Dee Valladares wins the all-important Week 1 HoH and quickly makes waves by nominating Mallory Aurichio, Yash Patel, and Taylor Brown for eviction. The group discusses how Dee’s approach bucks the old “don’t win the first HoH” advice, with Chappell arguing that taking charge early can pay off. With Rick Devens, Angela Murray, and other big personalities in the mix, speculation swirls about alliances, first impressions, and who might be a real threat. Fans might also love the lighter moments, like Ashley Trail’s odd snack choices and Rome Seymour’s unique TikTok content, while strategy talk from Dee, Kamuela “Kamu” Kirk, and Angela keeps everyone guessing. The crew also shares their take on the Big Brother Unlocked panel vibes, the Have-Not room reveal, and the season’s surprise twist with the BB Time Capsule vote that could deliver either a power or a punishment.

Chappell highlights how Dee Valladares’ aggressive HoH strategy might shake up expected power dynamics early on.

Brandon discusses the likely reasons Mallory, Yash, and Taylor landed on the block and debates whether Mallory could be the week’s primary target.

The panel shares reactions to early house conflicts, including Mallory’s tense comments about Dee.

Everyone has a laugh about Ashley Trail’s microwave pea snack and Andy the intern’s growing legend in the Big Brother fandom.

The Have-Not room’s theme and its impact on Chuk Anyanwu, Drew Campbell, Haley Thogmartin, Rick Devens, and Taylor Brown get quick attention.

New alliances are forming, targets are shifting, and with Dee in command, it’s anyone’s guess who will make the next big move. Did Dee Valladares target the right houseguests to start her reign strong?

Tune in for the whole breakdown as the house settles in and the real game begins!
