Is it the new crop of housemate ages that are the issue?
The original demographic that watched big brother would be in their 30s (and 40s) and the only reality shows really geared to this demographic is dating/love ( sans survivor). This new generation are more fixated on live island, Geordie shore and big brother really doesn’t cater to younger folk.
Put some weather beaten older folks in the house with real life experience and live stream it. Push it to a later time slot when us mums put the kids to bed and want to watch something rude, funny and people on the drink who have a bit deeper interaction than sex and tanning. I think that’s why celeb bb uk was so well recieved a lot of folk in their were older there was one token 20 something one or two 30 yr olds and up from there. I’m not talking a aust bb Terri ( oxygen thief) but people with grit.
Casting with the channel 7 era is BORING!
