This time around, the new contestants are Paul Abrahamian, Victor Arroyo, Corey Brooks, Paulie Calafiore, Bronte D’Acquisto, Bridgette Dunning, Zakiyah Everette, Jozea Flores, Glenn Garcia, Michelle Meyer, Natalie Negrotti, and Tiffany Rousso. Returning houseguests from past seasons are Da’Vonne Rogers, Frank Eudy, James Huling, and Nicole Franzel.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
9/22 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.

Note: These are the final national numbers (unless noted with an “*”). These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
