Big Brother's 1000th episode is just around the corner, and as promised by Julie Chen Moonves and others, it's going to be quite the event. It's been revealed that the August 27th episode will include a live eviction, and among guest stars and other events, there's one thing mentioned that absolutely terrifies me. I'm hype to see the former Houseguests attending, but I can't help but feel freaked out by the promise of the "summer's biggest twist" playing out on the big night. Whether you're watching on CBS or watching Big Brother online with your Paramount+ subscription, you should be on alert because midseason twists can really throw a wrench in things. Big Brother Has A Bad Track Record With Midseason Twists As Of LateA midseason twist should rattle any Big Brother fan who has watched recent seasons, as there are a few memorable ones that ended in tragedy. Most recently would be the White Locust twist, which removed Rachel Reilly from the game without being evicted, and that's just last season's twist.There was also "BB Zombies" in Season 25, in which the season ground to a halt as the twist negated a double eviction and brought Jared Fields and Cameron Hardin back into the house. It killed the momentum in the game and brought things to a boring and ultimately inconsequential stall. Then there's the split house in Season 24, in which there were two HOHs and each side had zero way of communicating with one another. It led to Joseph Abdin's eviction, which crushed fans' hearts at the time as he and Taylor Hale were close. The point being, midseason twists have sucked as of late, and I'm scared Big Brother may be cooking up another one. That said, it could be something that doesn't directly impact the game, like the grand prize finally being bumped up to a million dollars. That would be a great twist, and far better than what we've seen in other midseason twists. Season 28 Is Finally In A Good Place, And I Fear Another Twist Could Upset ThatBig Brother Season 28 is finally in a good spot, after the Red Corner was blown up and the alliances in the house were reshuffled. Things are on a good path, so it would be a shame if three weeks later, we're faced with a twist that could knock things back offtrack once again. More On Big BrotherBig Brother 28 Spoilers: Dee Has Her Sights Set On The Strongest Newbie In The GameThere is a part of me that thinks I'm being overdramatic, as there's also a chance this twist could be something that becomes iconic and eventually transitions into being a standard part of the season. It happened with the BB Blockbuster, so there's always a chance we could see it happen again. On the same token, I've been watching Big Brother long enough to know that expecting the unexpected can have some predictable results. Big twists either go one of three ways: it's overpowered, and fans complain; it's underpowered, and therefore irrelevant; or the Houseguests find a way around it or manipulate it. I'm scared about all of those things happening, especially with so many powers already active in the game. We'll see what the big twist is when Big Brother's 1000th episode airs on CBS on Thursday, August 27th at 8:00 p.m. ET. Fingers crossed I'm eating crow when the big episode comes, because right now, I can't stop thinking about all of the ways this twist could go sideways.
