Another week, another cliffhanger. For the second Power of Veto ceremony in a row on Big Brother, the episode ended before fans got to see whether the power was used. Unsurprisingly, the decision to save the veto ceremony for Thursday night's episode didn't sit well with viewers.

Last week's veto ceremony episode, during which Derek X contemplated backdooring Christian, ended before the outcome was revealed (fans saw this plan come to fruition on Thursday's episode). Big Brother went the same route for Wednesday's episode, as it ended with Kyland wondering if he should go through with his plan to backdoor Britini. Since Alyssa won the Power of Veto during the OTEV competition, Kyland won a Power of Veto as well because he bet on her after the Veto Derby twist was unleashed.

Will Kyland or Alyssa use the Power of Veto on one of the two nominees, Claire or Derek F? And will Britini go up as a replacement? Fans will have to tune in to Thursday night's eviction episode to find out. But, based on the reactions amongst viewers, they're not happy about having to wait.

​

"They need to stop cutting veto to the next episode on #BB23," one fan wrote about the veto ceremony cliffhanger. "I may stop watching the show over that."

​

A Big Brother live feeder weighed in by writing, "cbs editors, stop trying to make 'lets save the veto ceremony edit till thursday' happen. we know what happens. youre just preventing us from watching HOH live. sincerely, the non-casuals."

​

"I do not like the BB changes!!" another viewer wrote on Twitter. "I expect veto be aired on a certain day, renoms on a certain day, HOH ceremonies on a certain day, I am not liking this! EVERYTHING'S AIRED DIFFERENT WHY?"

​

This fan is clearly not a fan of cliffhangers, as they wrote, "I need Wednesday episodes of #BB23 to end with a Veto Meeting. I need consistency in my otherwise chaotic life. Please consider. Don't be like The Bachelor."

​

Fans are already considering what they're going to do if these cliffhangers continue on Wednesday night episodes. A viewer wrote, "If this trend of showing the veto ceremony on Thursday continues and causes us to not get live HOH comps I'm going to be very annoyed."

​

"Oh so we're just no longer showing veto ceremonies during the veto episodes anymore?" another fan wrote. "@CBSBigBrother, explain yourself!!!"

​

Viewers have been left to question why the veto ceremony was not shown in full, with one writing, "What happened to the schedule of doing the veto on Wednesday and then eviction Thursday? This is annoying." Disclosure: PopCulture is owned by ViacomCBS Streaming, a division of ViacomCBS.
