2013 will be lucky... for some. Could it be you? Go to bigbrother.com.au and apply to be a #BBAU Housemate NOW!! This is a tweet from Alex Mavroidakis. Once again he mentions that it will be lucky for some but not for others. Could be a 2 houses thing with a main house and a crappy house maybe where the Friday Night Games area use to be. Lucky housemates go to the main, good house and the unlucky ones go to the crappy house. Either way I am looking forward to this season and the twists it has. I think the show will be improved from last year.
I really, really hope so.
I know the show can never ever return to its full former glory, but I just really would like Alex and the rest of the team to at least just attempt to bring back so many of the original aspects of the show - and try to maintain some consistency with it at least. Last year he did try, I'll give him that, but he certainly didn't try hard enough. He definitely needs to take a leaf out of Peter Abbott's book sometime.
I'm currently a third of the way through my re-watch of the entire series (just started 2003 now) and there's just so many little things that I wish had been kept in later seasons. One of them being the focus on all the HM's personalities, their interactions with one another and the dynamics between all the HM's in the house. I'd always watched the show since 2001, but before I started re-watching it I honestly must've forgotten about how important Carmel Hill's interviews with Gretel were during the earlier seasons. Her perspective of the HM's and how they will/did interact with each other and what their characteristics brought to the house were always almost exactly spot on, and it maintained the whole pretense of the show which is in fact that it's a social experiment.
I believe this is one of many aspects of Big Brother that needs to make a comeback.
Didn't he just mean... lucky for those that get on the show.
In an earlier tweet he said BBAU13, lucky for some...unlucky for others. I think that is a fairly good indication that it means some housemates will be better off compared to others.

Well,it didn't work for them last year. Why would they want to try it again?

Anyone.. see the ACA Big Brother segment tonight 
in regards to auditioning.. Tracey starts off by suggesting that Big Brother has his eye "on the older generation". And then just the usual.. doesn't matter who you are.. old, young.. yada yada ya.. feel free to audition. With a bunch of rolling clips of video auditions and a producer encouraging anyone to give it a go.

Hmmmm. We'll see, I guess.
Thank you!
Yeah they said similar things last year. I hope we do get a few older people auditioning though giving the produces a good chance of fining someone who is older.

So long as we don't end up with ONE "token oldie". If they're going to do it, it needs to be a spread of ages - makes casting more difficult, but it wouldn't be impossible. That said, given the timeslot it will be broadcast, and the target audience, having HMs older than 35 that will be interesting for the young-uns will be hard to find.

I wasn't exactly sure where to put this so I thought I would just add it to this thread.

Yes I agree, 4 or 5 housemates 38 plus would be ideal for me including 2 in their 50's.

50's? And two at that? Highly doubtful... As was mentioned earlier in the thread unless the show was moved in to a later time-slot the show will be cast to compete with the likes of Neighbors and Home & Away...
If they were to go with an older cast the best you can hope for is 4 to 5 HM's older than 30 with 1 or two in their early 40's...
I can't see teenagers, who make up the bulk of BB fans relating to HM's that are approaching their Grandparents age...

What about having a couple of house mates in their 80s or 90s. That way there would be a fair chance of them falling off the perch before they are evicted!

Why not make them all over 80 and theme the house as a retirement home, cut the public vote, and the last person is the winner?
