Yeah, Nah.
Now hearing that 7 are waiting to see how the new BB UK goes before deciding where to go back to the original format in 2024.
If idol is going live, surely they can do BB live too.
Hopefully the UK revival is successful!
The responses on the C7 Twitter announcement as positive as you'd expect:

The Fifa Women's World Cup which is listed in the same period as BB is in July next year, I am picking mid-late July for the premiere.So it looks to be second half of the year so a bit later than this years dates. Image from theguidefather on TwitterView attachment 59353

According to this it may not be over just yet…I predict this will be the final death knell for BB in this country. Noone asked for this hybrid of Survivor and Love Island. It's already bad enough that it's pre-recorded and scripted to the nth degree.

So we want 'House of Love' to flop and the UK season to be a success... seems do-able
I am so bloody excited…
…to finally see how universally hated this show is becoming.
Thanks, Seven.

Idol - nostalgia will ensure success
Blow Up - will flop
Million Dollar Island- has flopped everywhere else
Farmer Wants a Wife and The Voice will just do what they do
Kitchen Nightmares - no Ramsey, no point
MKR and SAS - flopped this year
AGT - is just padding out the year
What happened to Apartment Rules announced last year?

Anecdotally on whether or not the old format is viable;
Gran Hermano (Big Brother Argentina) started last week after a 6 year hiatus with 24 hour live streams. The premiere was the largest tv debut for a show in 2022, and I’ve seen pirate (?) streams of the feeds on twitch hit a peak of 27000 viewers even a week in, with chat popping off pretty well.
In terms of interest and viewership, the traditional format absolutely still works.
Interesting. This comes comes TV Blackbox’s interview with Angus Ross. Rob even says he’s not sure he wants House of Love to be a success if it means greater chance it will be live in 2024 haha.
INTERVIEW | Programming guru ANGUS ROSS reveals everything new you can expect on CHANNEL 7 in 2023
In a special edition of the TV Blackbox podcast this week, Rob McKnight sits down with the Seven Networks Head of Programming Angus Ross, to unpack all the details of the network's biggest Upfront presentation in years.

Surely that’s gotta earn Rob a few points with some here? Haha
For anyone not wanting to go to that crappy website, here is the key quote from Angus Ross:
The one thing I will say on Big Brother, I’ll be really interested to see how the as live version goes in the UK next year. We couldn’t, due to the schedules that we had to produce this next series, consider that. But I’ll be watching with interest because it’s certainly something we would consider going forward.
Yeah, I mean, that would obviously have to be for calendar year ’24, but absolutely we’d do it. I’ll be watching with interest.

It’s formatted as a transcript. Not sure if the audio is available.
Red = Rob, quotes are Angus.
Well, it’s interesting you’re doing something very different to Married At First Sight. A dating show, although that’s dating show on steroids and doesn’t fit into the traditional Bachelor type of dating show. My take at the moment is that dating shows are off the boil. I’m intrigued by what you’re doing with Big Brother Singles. What’s the thinking with that?
You’re saying I’m too old for it, Angus?Look, I think Big Brother is a show that’s always skewed pretty young and the thinking behind it-
That’s good.No, I view you as young. I think what we’re doing with this cast is really leaning further into that young skew. I’ve seen the cast and they’re fantastic.
I think we’re going to get a lot of great content out of them. Very, very charismatic people. Certainly not just a bunch of shallow airheads or anything like that.
Really, really pleased with the cast. But the show is still Big Brother. I don’t think you are automatically thinking it’s a … I wouldn’t move it fully into the dating category.
I’m a little concerned, I will be honest, when I saw the singles, the application for singles. Look-
That was my next questionThe one thing I will say on Big Brother, I’ll be really interested to see how the as live version goes in the UK-
Okay, so this is an interesting point and I did want to ask about that and I probably spent too much time asking about Big Brother to be honest. But let’s just say-… next year. We couldn’t, due to the schedules that we had to produce this next series, consider that. But I’ll be watching with interest because it’s certainly something we would consider going forward.
Let’s just say this season doesn’t do great numbers or does on par with what it’s been doing and Big Brother goes off in the UK back to the original format, you would consider going and trying the live 24-hour turnaround?I like it. You’re passionate.
Of course.Yeah, I mean, that would obviously have to be for calendar year ’24, but-
I don’t know if I’m hoping for success or your next series mate, to be honest.… absolutely we’d do it. I’ll be watching with interest.
And let’s be honest though, no matter how long, because I think shooting starts at the end of this month, no matter how long they’ve got it, even if they’ve got a year to edit it, they’ll still be doing it up until the last minute before it goes to air. We know.Well, the House of Love will be coming in the back half of calendar year ’23. I mean, obviously we’ve got a bit of flexibility with it because it will be on the shelf and ready to go, but be a back half play for us.
One of the big-Yes, you’re right. You’re correct.
I just look at the delivery schedule. Yes, you’re correct.
