Big Brother Australia 2022 - Back To The Future - Promos, Trailers & Spoilers

[KTOM]

First look from 7Upfronts

Housemates of the past are reentering the house with 12 new housemates

I’m truely shocked that Seven are acknowledging the Ten and Nine iterations but I’m really excited by it! They must of seen how effective the nostalgia is factor is with how well Dancing with the Stars, Hey Hey special have been.

Hopefully Danny Hayes is back!

I really hope all those old housemates shown aren't just a tease. I honestly would be surprised if Christie Swan or that Fitz guy to go back as they have actual media careers. Unless it's a short term VIP type stay.

 

[matts bb]

I was surprised when I just saw this.
It’s what should have happened to be honest. I’ll actually tune in for this.

 

[bleachy_dude]

Wow 🤩🤩🤩

I’ve had so many discussions with people here who emphatically told me that Channel 7 would NEVER even mention past housemates. Hahahaha.

The power of nostalgia is too strong!


I am beyond excited for this.

 

[bleachy_dude]

I'm not claiming that people don't remember the top level HMs and events, nor that they remember it fondly, but the depth of memory is another matter.


It's the only comparable example. They're both social reality competitions and they've both jumped networks.


An active 1-2% of social followers do not represent the whole and a broader objective sample of the population will not skew as you suggest.

My final word on the matter - as much as you're all looking for reasons for All Stars to work, you're failing to account for the many reasons why it won't happen. Getting a TV show off the ground is so much more than a concept and a cast, and you can't build a solid business case without performing due diligence. Objectively, as someone who works in this industry (including experience on BB), what you are hoping for is not going to materialise.

My argument about Survivor was illustrating that pulling contestants from prior network versions is not feasible. At best you're an armchair analyst who clearly knows nothing of the commercial business of television. You will not get an All Stars with pre-Seven HMs, period.

Just sayin… @beeb-jr I’ll take your apology now. Hehe. Period.

So... anyone thinking guest appearances?

 

[inumeenu]

This is super excitinggggggg!!!!

 

[Zcsund1234]

I am beyond shocked they're actually including old school BB in it's canon. I am honestly in disbelief. This is at least very promising. I can't believe I am saying this but I am actually excited for Big Brother to return.

 

[inumeenu]

I really hope Reggie and Sara Marie from Channel 10, and Tim and Tully from Channel 9, will be in it!!

 

[the Theorist]

Okay, now THIS I can get behind.

I find it hilarious they're promoting it as the "21st anniversary"... ya really missed the boat for the 20th anniversary on that one, Seven 🤣... but this was honestly a really promising teaser!

I saw another season of Big Brother VIP was also announced for 2022. Was there any specific teaser for it throughout the Upfronts, too?

 

[Zcsund1234]

If they blue ball us and just fill it with 2020/2021 housemates I will be dissapointed. But surly they cannot advertise so many clips of the TEN era and not include a decent amount. I hope to at the very very least see a decent number of people from the NINE version.

 

[the Theorist]

Also of note, 7+ has brought the rights to air Big Brother Canada locally here in Australia next year as well.

 

[the Theorist]

They won't. This must have been the reason they decided against green-lighting Reggie for this year's VIP.

The promo mentions All-Stars versus regular HMs, so we'll probably only get maybe 6-10 returnees. And I think it'll be the very typically expected ex-HMs - the ones who are not only still recognisable, but are still very invested in the franchise (or desperate to maintain some fame, lol). It'll be the likes of Reggie, Trevor, Jess... and probably more HMs from Nine's era than Ten's. I wouldn't discount them offering Angela a place either.

 

[Zcsund1234]

This is oddly suspicious

 

[the Theorist]

This is oddly suspicious

Oh she'd definitely be involved. (Whether the Insta post is related or not is another story... but then again, filming is expected to start soon, right?)

I would LOVE to see Tim Dormer included - although I'm not sure how likely that is.

 

[Zcsund1234]

I’d love to see Tim as well. He’s pretty much cemented himself as a big brother legend in a worldwide context, so he’d definitely be considered, I would guess he’d decline though.

 

[the Theorist]

I’d love to see Tim as well. He’s pretty much demented himself as a big brother legend in a worldwide context, so he’d definitely be considered, I would guess he’d decline though.

Much like the VIPs, I suspect there’d be a decent “incentive” offered to all the returning HMs.
