Finale date

[Vidiette]

There has been some talk amongst the houseguests about the date the show is scheduled to end. This is due largely to Will, who has a commitment to attend the wedding of his girlfriend Erin's best friend sometime in mid-September.

The length of the show is somewhat shorter this year (I wonder if the crew & producers are as sick of listening to James, Marcellas, Erika & Danielle as I am... ).

Anyway, feedsters have been wondering about the finale date too because the show's producers assured Will he would be able to attend the wedding. He kept wondering if they would pull him out of sequester and have a 'handler' with him at all times, or... basically he thought of every scenario that could allow him to attend the wedding... other than the obvious one, that most of us are sick of listening to the whiners on the show and the show is ending a week (and a half) earlier than last year.

Here's an article from Reality TV Magazine with the semi-official word.

Big Brother All-Stars Finale Announced
The winner of BIG BROTHER: ALL-STARS will be revealed live on Tuesday, Sept. 12 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/delayed PT) when a jury of evicted Houseguests vote for whom, among the final two all-stars, should be rewarded with the $500,000 grand prize. The BIG BROTHER: ALL-STARS finale will be followed by the penultimate episode of ROCK STAR: SUPERNOVA.

The Thursday edition of BIG BROTHER: ALL-STARS has won its time period in viewers and key young demographics every week this summer, while the Tuesday and Sunday editions have been strong time period performers, posting consistent gains since their premieres.

BIG BROTHER 7: ALL-STARS is produced by Endemol U.S.A. Inc. in association with Allison Grodner Productions and Arnold Shapiro Productions. Academy Award and Emmy Award winner Arnold Shapiro, Emmy Award winner Allison Grodner and Rich Meehan are executive producers.
