Other content

Daily updates about upcoming episodes are shown twice a day. Pinoy Big Brother: Lucky Season 7 Online airs their episodes on the official website and on their official Facebook and YouTube page on weekdays, sometimes on weekends for after-eviction specials. For three weeks, during the stay of the celebrity housemates, a special show entitled PBB: Mga Kwento ng Celebrity Housemates (then formerly known as PBB Vietnam: Mga Kwento ng Celebrity Housemates when the latter was still in Vietnam) aired. It was then renamed to PBB: Mga Kwento ng Teen Housemates upon the arrival of the teen housemates, and PBB: Mga Kwento ng Housemates ni Kuya upon the teen and regular housemates lived in one house, and then renamed as PBB: Mga Kwento ng Dream Team ni Kuya when the Dream Team housemates entered. Online Bahay ni Kuya returned for viewers to participate and win PHP 100,000 at the end of its run.

On February 10, 2017, the show aired its final episode from Kapamilya Gold's afternoon and was replaced by Wildflower block called Pinoy Big Brother Lucky Season 7: Mga Kwentong Dream Team ni Kuya.

Episode format

For the celebrity batch, housemates have entered a week before the actual premiere, and so the broadcast for these episodes are delayed as opposed to the previous-day format that had been present since the first season. Since the show does not display a day number for each episode, it is assumed that events had happened a week from the actual air date. It is possible that the length of stay of the celebrity housemates is shorter than what is being aired. On July 30, 2016, the celebrity housemates returned to the Philippines to enter the Pinoy Big Brother House, and so the previous-day format returns.

For the first three weeks of the season, the show only aired on weekdays due to the last few episodes of We Love OPM. After their stint in Vietnam, their format went back to air episodes 7 days a week.

Hosts

Toni Gonzaga, Bianca Gonzalez and Robi Domingo reprised their roles as hosts.

Later on, the still blind-folded female housemates entered the Confession Room one by one; they were tasked to identify JK and Jerome.^[46] Each of the female housemates perfectly identified JK; while Jerome was only identified by Elisse.^[47] Due to this, JK was able to enter the House; Jerome, who was not able to enter the House, was given the chance to write a letter to Elisse. After Elisse read the letter, she was given the decision whether she would be willing to talk with him. In the early hours of Day 20, she decided to talk and both were able to do so.
