Episode Day 30 Finale Show - 8/12/2025

I believe it. The winner kind of ends up representing the season PR wise and I feel like these days with the viability of BBAU being so uncertain production has a higher incentive than ever to choose a brand-safe, sellable winner. I don't think anyone else in the house came anywhere near as close to that as Coco did

Well said. Single mother winning is a safe option isn't it

I’ll be here for “I’m a Celebrity” if there are people creating posts for it. Mr Sticky was holding that mantle and he recently expressed that he won’t be watching next year. If that is an absolute fizzle then the Survivor community is pretty strong on here so come join us if you’re a survivor fan!

I'll join you for I'm a celebrity. Haven't watched a fair few seasons but feel like this one might be good.

I'm starting to realise the difference between a winner's edit and a "we would prefer you to stick around until the end but not win" edit

I think they have a preferred few that they wheedle down the closer to the end they get. I think there was enough backlash from the colon Holly thing that it meant they leant towards Coco again, especially as she staged the showmance towards the final week.
 
Just finished watching - lost a bit of interest in the last week and basically binge watched 10 days of episodes in two days with some sped up viewing and skipping annoying housemates' speeches. I am SO HAPPY obnoxious and annoying Connor did not win and I am OVERJOYED that the idiot d-head Colin was shown he was not the special boy he and mummy thinks he is. In the end it came down to a replay of BB03 and a Chrissy/Reggie moment. Either way I was happy but the good thing for Coco is, this WILL change her and her kids' lives.

I was hoping for Nine era return with the nomination booth and no contact with the outside world. The cast wasn't great, and likely Colin is winning tonight. Hopefully next year is a longer season. Thanks to everyone for the interaction this year!

Thank Christ he didn't. That f-wits ego is big enough as it is. It was SO satisfying seeing him given the boot. Like Ralph Wiggum, you could see the moment his heart broke.

We've already had plenty of Coco-type winners in the past using 2 to 3 of the same winning formula… - Has a sob story, Anglo ethnicity, Water birth sign. So it would be pretty predictable and disappointing if she wins.

Colin winning would at least break the usual "winner" mold of this show… - He's not a wallflower, he's of Greek/Southern European background, he's a Fire birth sign.
Australia seems to only vote for Anglo housemates (like Coco) to win out of the 13 Caucasian winners of this entire series. Whereas ethnically Southern-European housemates like Sara-Marie (Italian) and Vesna (Macedonian) have been robbed time and time again and never won a single season.

In the 2001-2014 OG social format, not a single Fire birth sign housemate like Colin has won the series. Only Bree Amer came close at 2nd place. So Colin winning would at least not be the same predictable drivel we see time and time again.

LOL!! Sarah Marie was about as white as they come. And what about the black islander guy who won in, was it '04 or '05? The fuzzy haired guy who got down on one knee and proposed to his wife? Yes - very white anglo there - not!!!

I was watching Allana and Bruce doing the key choice thing and the vision switchers couldn't even switch to the right camera when they lifted the numbered covers off. I was SCREAMING at my computer screen. It was just luck that nobody picked the right key earlier and we missed the reveal. I can imagine the nineteen year old douchebags in the control room who don't have the experience to do the job correctly. For me, that kind of summed up this season.

They randomly decided to mark all the uploads on YouTube of the 2025 season as hidden so now they can't be watched.

Hopefully the 2025 season erasure continues...

I wonder why?

Well, the episodes were caked in watermarks and burned-in banners (“24/7 Live Stream Now + Watch On 10, Sun-Fri”, etc). So my guess is those specific videos were always intended to be temporary uploads while the season was airing - an additional way to engage viewers (domestically and internationally) at the time and get a little extra ad revenue, both of which they received.

They may re-appear eventually in the future, likely less watermarked. Otherwise, they’ll probably prefer to direct future viewers to 10’s website or Paramount+.
