Voters: How old are you?

[sav0001]

I'd be sure the TikTok stream attracts a lot more under 20s than this old school website, with only two in the poll so far.

We always used to joke about the teenybopper girls controlling the vote in the OG era, as evidenced by the live eviction audiences. But as someone else said here recently Big Brother is not considered cool. Probably fair.

But which current reality show apart from something like Love Island maybe would be considered cool?

…my physical age is 72…

…my mental age is 16-17 according to my sweet darling wife…

…that probably explains my “Growing old is compulsory... growing up is optional...” thingy at the bottom of all my posts I guess?… cheers.

I've met you and agree with your wife about your mental age . You're certainly cheeky enough.

tbh I thought the 40-49 group would be bigger

Yeah I did too. I guess a lot of people here were watching the OG series at very young ages.

Kinda sad to realise there are only 3 people older than me in the show now days. My only chance now is try for the Sexy Nan position (minus the grandkids)

I suspect the vast majority of the 30-39 age group is at the older end of that range.

Or lying.

58 here ... and I've loved, and kind of been addicted to, BB since it first aired here in AU in 2001.

I recall the hype of that first season when everybody was talking about it ... in the office, on the train, in the bus, at school and it was in the newspapers and all over the news. It was huge. These days, whenever I mention to anybody that I watch BB, I generally get "WTF" type comments. Thank heck for BBBA because BB wouldn't be the same for me without being able to share my thoughts and compare notes and opinions with other people about the show.

Being shamed for being a Big Brother fan is a thing, coinciding with when the show went from being seen as a social experiment to a ratings grab.
