Further information: Big Brother (American TV series) § Format

Big Brother follows a group of contestants, known as HouseGuests, who live inside a custom-built house outfitted with cameras and microphones recording their every move 24 hours a day. The HouseGuests are sequestered with no contact with the outside world. During their stay, the HouseGuests share their thoughts on their day-to-day lives inside the house in a private room known as the Diary Room. Each week, the HouseGuests compete in competitions in order to win power and safety inside the house. At the start of each week, the HouseGuests compete in a Head of Household (abbreviated as "HOH") competition. The winner of the HoH competition is immune from eviction and selects two HouseGuests to be nominated for eviction. Six HouseGuests are then selected to compete in the Power of Veto (abbreviated as "PoV") competition: the reigning HoH, the nominees, and three other HouseGuests chosen by random draw. The winner of the PoV competition has the right to either revoke the nomination of one of the nominated HouseGuests or leave them as is. If the veto winner uses this power, the HoH must immediately nominate another HouseGuest for eviction. The PoV winner is also immune from being named as the replacement nominee. On eviction night, all HouseGuests vote to evict one of the nominees, though the Head of Household and the nominees are not allowed to vote. This vote is conducted in the privacy of the Diary Room. In the event of a tie, the Head of Household casts the tie-breaking vote. The nominee with the most votes is evicted from the house. The last nine evicted HouseGuests comprise the Jury and are sequestered in a separate location following their eviction and ultimately decide the winner of the season. The Jury is only allowed to see the competitions and ceremonies that include all of the remaining HouseGuests; they are not shown any interviews or other footage that might include strategy or details regarding nominations. The viewing public is able to award an additional prize of $25,000 by choosing "America's Favorite HouseGuest". All evicted HouseGuests are eligible to win this award except for those who either voluntarily leave or are forcibly removed for rule violations.

This is the first season since Big Brother 14 not to hold a "Battle Back" competition.

HouseGuests

On July 23, 2020, CBS confirmed the season would be an All-Stars edition with previous HouseGuests. This was the second All-Stars edition in the history of the program after the seventh season in 2006. The HouseGuests were revealed during the live season premiere on August 5, 2020.

16 All-Star Houseguests entered the house in four groups. Head of Household Competition: The first HoH competition was played in two rounds. First Round: Upon entering the house, the move-in groups of four would instantly compete in a competition. In the competition, an item would be shown on a screen in the backyard and HouseGuests would have to find the item in the house. They would then roll a ball through a maze, with the goal of landing the ball in the hole corresponding to the room the item was in. The first two HouseGuests in each heat to complete the puzzle would compete in the second round. Given the live nature of the competition, this competition also had a 4-minute time limit. Should a heat exceed four minutes, then only those who completed the table maze would move to the final round. In the move-in group of Christmas, Da'Vonne, Dani and Nicole F., only Christmas advanced. Kevin and Ian advanced from the group of them, Tyler and Enzo. Nicole A. advanced from her group of her, Janelle, Keesha and Bayleigh. From the group of Cody, Memphis, David and Kaysar, Cody and Memphis advanced. Final Round: The players who made it to the final round competed for one-by-one in a live competition. The HouseGuests would each have to race across a series of pedestals and make it to the other side of the yard, locking in their time with a buzzer. Some of these pedestals were not sturdy. If a HouseGuest fell off a pedestal, they would have to restart. The HouseGuest to complete the course in the fastest time would be the new Head of Household. Cody completed the course fastest and became the first Head of Household of the season. The other five HouseGuest took an envelope each: Christmas won $5,000 while Ian, Kevin, Memphis and Nicole A. were named the first Have-Nots.

For the next three weeks, the Safety Suite competition opened for any HouseGuest who wishes to compete for safety from the threat of eviction. Each may only participate in one competition and whoever wins will be granted safety for the week, plus another HouseGuest of their choice will also receive safety, but with a punishment. Safety Suite Competition ("Don't Miss a Beat"): In this competition, the object was to put together sections of the Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star remix by pressing seven buttons in the correct order after listening to the whole song. The HouseGuest who completed the task in the fastest time would be declared the winner. Janelle and Kaysar were the only two HouseGuests to compete. Kaysar beat Janelle and subsequently named her as his +1. Along with her safety, Janelle had to wear a star unitard for her punishment. With two of his potential nominations now immune, Cody decided to put up two people he felt were "outcasts". On Day 2, he nominated Keesha and Kevin for eviction with Keesha as his main target.

Alongside Cody, Keesha and Kevin, Enzo, Ian, and Tyler were drawn for the POV. Power of Veto Competition ("Going Bananas"): Contestants had to rock back and forth on a giant banana to earn 90 seconds to stack the most fruit cutouts they can on a stand. To earn more time, you had to get back on the banana and rock back and forth before the timer reaches 0. If the timer reaches zero or they exceed the 30 minutes total time limit, whichever comes first, they earn zero points and are eliminated. In the contest, only Enzo locked in his stack with 18 items. Enzo chose not to use the veto, keeping Cody's nominations the same.

Cody and Enzo solidified their Final Two alliance, the Root, due to their similar upbringings and play style. Keesha aligned with Janelle and Kaysar, who tried to campaign for her. Keesha herself did a poor job of campaigning while Kevin set himself up in connections with Cody, Da'Vonne, and Nicole A. Ultimately, by a unanimous vote of 13-0, Keesha was the first HouseGuest evicted. Head of Household Competition ("A Big Brother Watch Party"): The houseguests watched a short video skit of a dysfunctional family's video chat Big Brother watch party. Then Julie would ask the HouseGuest a series of True or False questions, with an incorrect answer resulting in a HouseGuest's elimination from the competition. Memphis won the competition after six questions, being the only one to answer the sixth question correctly.
Week 2

After each week, all of the Have-Nots will each have to name a replacement Have-Not, who can neither be the current Head of Household, nor one of last week's Have-Nots, meaning one cannot be subject to two consecutive weeks of Have-Not restrictions. Memphis chose David, Nicole A. chose Christmas, Nicole F. volunteered for Ian, and Kevin chose Kaysar. Memphis decided to persuade the rest of the HouseGuests to compete in the Safety Suite Competition as a ploy to guarantee that he has a higher chance in winning the following week. Bayleigh, Christmas, Cody, Da'Vonne, David, Ian, and Kevin swiped their VIP Passes to enter the suite to compete. Safety Suite Competition ("Gettin' Tipsy"): Seven houseguests scanned their VIP passes for entry in this week's safety suite competition. The goal is to place all of the drinks on the corresponding tables in the fastest time. All drinks on the red tray go to the red table, while the drinks on the blue tray go to the blue table. This had to be done in such a way that the tables will balance so that no drink falls off. Christmas completed the task in the shortest amount of time and won immunity, and gave the +1 to Ian. Ian's punishment was revealed as the "BB All-Star Wars". At various points, a voice would come over the loudspeaker instructing Ian to put his costume on and act out various scenes over the rest of the week. Memphis' allies suggested nominating Janelle and Kaysar, fearing them as a duo. However, Memphis disagreed as the duo was a key piece for him still in the game. At the nomination ceremony, Memphis nominated David and Nicole A.

Following the nomination ceremony, the rest of Memphis' alliance felt that his speech belittled David and came across as ignorant. Tyler pulls David aside to cheer him up stating that if he won the Power of Veto, he would use it on David. Later, Ian, Tyler and Nicole F. were chosen to compete alongside Memphis, David, and Nicole A. in the PoV competition. Power of Veto Competition ("All Starry Night"): Houseguests have to stand on a slanted surface and hold a ball steady on a flat surface held out in front of them. Last person to let the ball fall wins the Power of Veto. After about half an hour, Memphis won the Power of Veto. At the veto meeting, members of his alliance tried to convince Memphis to use the veto to backdoor the duo of Janelle and Kaysar, while they, mostly Janelle, tried to convince him to backdoor Nicole F. However, Memphis decided not to use the veto, leaving his nominations the same.
753	7	"Episode 7"	Days 13–16	August 20, 2020 (2020-08-20)	3.91	1.0
Nicole A.'s trust with Janelle and Kaysar began to deteriorate as the majority of the house began to convince her that she was being used. Then, by a vote of 10-2, Nicole A. was evicted, with only Enzo and Kevin voting to evict David. Head of Household Competition ("Mug Shot"): Each Houseguest must push the mugs to the nearest target possible and get most points as they can. The Houseguest with the fastest time and most points wins HOH. Tyler won with a score of 12 points, barely surpassing Janelle, who had 11.
Week 3
754	8	"Episode 8"	Days 16–17	August 23, 2020 (2020-08-23)	4.12	1.0
Due to Janelle and Kaysar's close ties to Memphis, they talked to Memphis the previous week about an alliance that was forming with Cody, Dani, Nicole F. and Tyler, with no idea that Memphis was in the exact same alliance. Safety Suite Competition ("Stealing Safety"): Dani, Enzo, Memphis and Nicole F. all competed in the last safety suite competition. The goal is to get past all of the lasers to open the safety vault and bring the large ball all the way back to the beginning without disrupting a laser beam. If hit, the alarm goes off and the player has to rush back to the start and press the button to reset the alarm. The player who makes it back to beginning and hit their button in the fastest time will be safe for the week. Enzo completed the task the fastest earning him safety for the week and he then give the +1 to Christmas. Christmas' punishment was "All-Star is Born". Throughout the rest of the week, Christmas would receive "star babies" and must carry them around with her wherever she goes. At the nomination ceremony, Tyler nominated Janelle and Kaysar with Janelle as his target.

Power Veto Competition: ("Cupcake Clash") HouseGuests competed head-to-head in a randomly drawn tournament to sort out three cupcakes in a Tower of Hanoi pattern. Since there are six players, the fastest of the first round advances to the championship round while the other two winners face head-to-head, with the final two competing in the final round. Cody won the Power of Veto. With Cody being part of the big alliance, he decided to not use the Power of Veto, feeling like Janelle and Kaysar would come after them given the chance.
756	10	"Episode 10"	Days 20–23	August 27, 2020 (2020-08-27)	3.99	1.0
With the Committee wanting Janelle out, feeling as if she was a bigger physical threat, they all set their eyes on her on eviction night. On Day 23, Janelle was evicted by a vote of 9-2, receiving two hinky votes from Dani and Enzo in an attempt to spur paranoia. Head of Household Competition: ("Carnival Quick Shot") Houseguests are split into two different groups for this competition.

The first three HouseGuest to complete the task moves on to the final round, and the first HouseGuest in the final round wins the competition.

The 6 people that advanced to the final round were Cody, Dani, David, Enzo, Kaysar, and Kevin. Enzo managed to pull the HoH win and secure safety for the week. Although Enzo was not part of the Committee, he was heavily affiliated with them, including a side alliance with Cody, Dani and Nicole called the Core Four, they were able to convince him to target Kaysar for the week. At the nomination ceremony, Enzo nominated Kaysar and Kevin, with Kaysar as his official target and Kevin as the pawn.

The last HouseGuest remaining won the competition. Kevin won the Power of Veto.

Julie gave a category and a number and asked whether the amount of photos fitting that category were more, less or exactly the same as stated in the question. If a HouseGuest answered wrong or their opponent got the question correct first, they were eliminated. The winner of each round chose who would compete in the subsequent round, with the last houseguest remaining, winning the competition. Da'Vonne managed to make it to the final round by winning all of her match-ups, alongside Christmas, who didn't get to answer any questions up to that point.

Special Comeptition: ("BB Basement") Three game-changing powers were hidden in random places inside the Big Brother basement. Houseguests had to search around in complete darkness among trash and other obstacles for power icons that would fit inside one of the three power podiums.

All three powers were eligible to be used once over the next three weeks. Christmas, David, and Dani were the winners. Christmas received the Blocker Power, which allowed her to prevent either herself or another houseguest of her choice from being named the replacement nominee at one of the next three veto meetings.

Head-of-Household Competition Round 3 ("Vinyl Exam"): The two HouseGuests had to watch a series of videos featuring jury members in order of their eviction. Each jury member made three statements about their time in the Big Brother House, and have to deduce which statement is false. A correct guess earns one point and the HouseGuest earning more points after eight questions would win. On the first question, Cody answered correctly while Nicole F. was incorrect, and later both HouseGuests answered the remaining questions correctly. In the end, Cody won with 8-7 and thus, winning the final HoH competition, making him the third HouseGuest to reach the Final 2 twice. Deciding to keep the "Final 2" alliance intact, Cody chose to evict Nicole F., making her the last HouseGuest evicted and the ninth and final Jury member. Following her eviction, the Jury of Nine then questioned the finalists on their different games they played during the entire season. They each praised on their strategies and their journeys but also criticized on the treatment towards other HouseGuests. Towards the end of the questions, Enzo rambles and Cody rehashes on their respective games. Later on, it was revealed that the jury unanimously voted Cody to crown him the winner of the season and the $500,000 top prize. Minutes later, Da'Vonne was voted by the public as the season's America's Favorite HouseGuest and the $25,000 prize, with Tyler being the next closest contender for the award.

Twists

Safety Suite

In the second episode, the Safety Suite twist was introduced. For each of the first three weeks, HouseGuests could opt to compete in a competition to earn immunity as well as immunity for one other player. Each HouseGuest could only compete in one of the three safety competitions by scanning the VIP Pass that was given to them on week 1. Once the Suite was activated, those who wanted to participate would have one hour to scan in. The players who chose to participate were revealed to all the remaining HouseGuests. The player who won the Safety Suite competition would be safe for the week and would have to choose a +1 to be safe along with them. However, the +1 would have to accept a unique punishment for the week in addition to immunity.

Notes

Production

Impacts of COVID-19

Dates for open casting calls were announced on February 28 and were due to start on March 7. All open casting calls were cancelled on March 10 due to concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic however potential applicants were urged to continue submitting online applications. An article from The Hollywood Reporter on April 7 noted that CBS would be without new seasons of Big Brother and Love Island during the summer. Unnamed sources to the publication said the network would rely on repeats of their scripted shows that "have historically repeated well." In a May 19 interview with Deadline, CBS Entertainment President Kelly Kahl said the network was "optimistic" about airing both shows (Big Brother and Love Island) during the summer "a little later than usual." Pre-production began on July 2 with the crew starting construction on the house located in Los Angeles. Deadline reported the crew was following strict health and safety guidelines which including being tested for COVID-19, wearing personal protective equipment and observing social distancing during construction. Fly on the Wall Entertainment and Endemol Shine North America, which co-produce the series, had to wait for approvals from unions and guilds to officially begin filming. CBS revealed several changes to the program to ensure the health and safety of the HouseGuests, staff and production crew. Prior to the season premiere, the HouseGuests were placed in quarantine and tested for COVID-19 multiple times. Once inside the House, the HouseGuests would be tested weekly and have no contact with the production crew and any supplies delivered to the House would be disinfected. The production crew and staff would also be tested regularly and screened for symptoms, provided personal protective equipment and work in socially distant pods. A COVID-19 compliance officer will be on staff to ensure the implementation of the safety policies. Additionally, the live shows would not have a live studio audience, for the first time since Big Brother 9.

Development

CBS announced Big Brother had been renewed for a twenty-second season on September 5, 2019. Chen Moonves confirmed to return as host on the same day after signing a one-season contract extension with the network. Merchandise for the upcoming season briefly appeared on CBS' online store on July 20, 2020, featuring the title Big Brother: All-Stars with a redesigned logo. Allison Grodner and Rich Meehan will return as executive producers for the series which will be produced by Fly on the Wall Entertainment, in association with Endemol Shine North America. CBS announced the season would have a live two-hour premiere on August 5, 2020. For the first time since Big Brother: Over the Top this season will feature the HouseGuests moving into the House during live premiere. New episodes will air on Sunday/Wednesday/Thursday schedule as in previous seasons except all episodes will air in the 8:00 p.m. timeslot. Global will air the season in Canada in simulcast with CBS.

Casting

Kassting, Inc. returned to provide casting services for a 21st consecutive season since Big Brother 2, with Robyn Kass serving as the casting director. Despite the eventual "All-Stars" format, an open casting call for the season was still held, which opened on September 22, 2019, and closed on April 3, 2020.

Filming

As with previous seasons, the program is filmed at CBS Studios, soundstage 18 in Studio City, California in a custom-built two-story house. The House is equipped with 94 high-definition cameras and over 113 microphones to monitor and record the HouseGuests.

Production design

The theme of the house is a modern colorful urban loft that showcases Big Brother history. Like the previous All-Star house, the new house contains many references to past players and moments of the series. Spray-painted murals in the kitchen area depict memorable moments from popular former HouseGuests, including:

• Danielle Reyes miming devil horns in her Diary Room sessions along with her countdown towards her goal of reaching the end, "1 down, 8 to go" (from Big Brother 3).
• Dan Gheesling is depicted during his infamous "funeral" (from Big Brother 14);
• Will Kirby is featured and labeled as a "puppet master" (from Big Brother 2 & Big Brother 7);
• Derrick Levasseur's "undercover" gameplay that alludes to his occupation as an undercover police officer (from Big Brother 16);
• Rachel Reilly's popular battlecry of "Floaters, [you better] grab a life vest" (from Big Brother 12); and
• Kaycee Clark is featured with her frequently vocalized catchphrase "Let's go!" (from Big Brother 20).

The lounge features toss pillows of the show's multiple popular "showmances," including Jeff/Jordan (from Big Brother 11 and Big Brother 13), Cody/Jessica (from Big Brother 19), Brendon/Rachel (from Big Brother 12 and Big Brother 13), Dominic/Daniele (from Big Brother 13), Swaggy C/Bayleigh (from Big Brother 20), Tyler/Angela (from Big Brother 20), and Victor/Nicole (from Big Brother 18). The first bedroom is a comic themed room that alludes to the recurring Power of Veto competition BB Comics. The walls of this room includes images of the BB Comics characters of multiple past HouseGuests, including Victor Arroyo (of Big Brother 18), Amber Borzotra (of Big Brother 16), Frank Eudy (of Big Brother 14 and Big Brother 18), Jessica Graf (of Big Brother 19), Frankie Grande (of Big Brother 16), Ovi Kabir (of Big Brother 21), Jordan Lloyd (of Big Brother 11 & Big Brother 13), Steve Moses (of Big Brother 17), Rachel Reilly (of Big Brother 12 and Big Brother 13), Vanessa Rousso (of Big Brother 17), Angela Rummans (of Big Brother 20), Faysal Shafaat (of Big Brother 20), Devin Shepherd (of Big Brother 16), Christopher "Swaggy C" Williams (of Big Brother 20) and Jase Wirey (of Big Brother 5 and Big Brother 7). The second bedroom is themed around cameras, the walls of this bedroom is filled with "127 black-and-white photos that highlight pivotal moments spanning the show’s 20-year history". The third bedroom is themed around the Big Brother key, the symbol of safety in the Big Brother house as used in the nomination ceremony and in the Final 2 jury vote. The bathroom features rubber ducks which have been frequently seen in the pool. This season also featured an updated front of house studio for the first time since Big Brother 15, featuring a new 10-foot-tall entrance door as well as a hallway to prevent houseguests from peeking beyond the door, a trope that has caught on in recent years.

Reception

Critical response

During Week 5, Memphis Garrett, Nicole Franzel, Dani Briones, and Christmas Abbott made fun of Ian Terry's rocking coping mechanism for being on the autism spectrum. Dani stated, "I can't even look at him sometimes because [of] his constant movement. It stresses me out. I feel mean saying that, but I'll literally have to move." Memphis and Christmas joined in, with Memphis comparing Ian's demeanor to that of a horror movie. Multiple houseguests were also involved in the matter, including Cody Calafiore and Enzo Palumbo. These houseguests laughed when comments were made, but did not directly make comments about Terry.
