I started watching last season.

I’m going to miss watching the show too, but I’ve got a great plan. This fall, spend some time watching other CBS competition shows. We’ve got ‘Survivor,’ we’ve got ‘The Amazing Race,’ and now we’ve got ‘The Real Love Boat.’ That’ll get you prepped for next summer. That’s right! We are coming back for our 25th season of the show.” Watch Chen-Moonves’ full message below.

Congratulations! After a jury vote, Taylor Hale became the winner of Big Brother season 24, taking home the impressive $750,000 prize during live Sunday, September 25, finale.

It's been 82 days of some of the most controversial and divisive gameplay in recent memory, but Season 24 has finally crowned a new champion.Sunday's two-hour finale all came down to the final three houseguests — who, coincidentally, were also all members of the defunct Leftovers Alliance, which ruled the house for several weeks before falling apart in dramatic fashion during the Split House Twist midway through the season.The whole season came down to Taylor Hale, Matthew «Turner» Turner, and Monte Taylor.  So who won the title of champion?  Otherwise, here's how everything played out during Sunday's jampacked finale!After last week's eviction of Brittany Hoopes, the pressure was on for the final three, who would have to face off in a series of three Head of Household competitions to see who would be the final HOH, and have full power to decide which houseguest joined them in the final two.As always, this late in the game, feeling out alliances can be tricky when there are only two people left, and Monte has been playing both sides of the field — making promises to his close friend Turner and similar promises to Taylor, with whom he's seemingly gotten close to in recent weeks.Taylor's place in the final three is a miracle in its own right and has had one of the most undeniably incredible comeback stories in the history of the show. Early in the season, everyone (including Monte) seemed to have it out for Taylor, to a level that many viewed as problematic and racially motivated.

We’re nearing the end. The Big Brother season 24 finale is almost here and we’re down to the final three houseguests – Taylor Hale, Monte Taylor and Mathew Turner. Who will take home the win?
