"It's a week's worth of Big Brother in one night." That's how the narrator of the CBS reality series has always described the infamous "double eviction" night twist. During the eviction episode, after the first elimination, Julie Chen Moonves informs the players that they are not done competing for that evening. In fact, an entire round is about to play out over the rest of the hour, with an HoH being crowned, nominations made, a Veto won and possibly used. And, at the end of it, another houseguest is sent packing, their mind still reeling by the whiplash.
Here are all the double eviction nights that have happened so far across Big Brother.
The double eviction as we know it today first appeared in 2006's "All-Stars" season of Big Brother under a different name. Branded the "Big Brother Fast Forward," the episode started with the eviction of Danielle Reyes at the hands of her closest ally Erika Landin . Julie then shocked the returnees with an announcement that they would then play out an entire other round in the next hour. Erika was very close to walking out the door right after her bestie, but a clutch veto win sealed the fate of season 1 houseguest "Chicken" George Allen Boswell .
Big Brother 15 in 2013 was the first to start with its now-traditional 16 houseguests, meaning the two double eviction structure from last season had to become a necessity. And both of them contain some huge moments. The first came on Day 49, as the jury began with Candice Stewart's eviction, as she exchanged heated words with Gina Marie Zimmerman on the way out. When Aaryn Gries won the next HoH, she took aim at Jessie Kowalski . But as the hour played out, it became known that Judd Daugherty was playing all sides, and couldn't be trusted. Shockingly, one of the most well-positioned players in the house suddenly became the target, and he got put up and out.
Luckily for Judd, he soon returned to the house, and participated in the season's second double eviction on Day 77. The night started with Andy Herren turning on his alliance with showmance Amanda Zuckerman and McCrae Olson , joining his new "Exterminators" group to evict the former. And, in the most impressive move from the eventual winner in the season, when McCrae won HoH, he was able to convince him that it wasn't him who turned, but Elissa Slater . McCrae bought the lie, and took aim at the fan favorite, keeping Andy's loyalties under wraps.
