View Full Version : weird thought: BBUK pretty much mirrored BBAUS’ history

hear me out it’s mostly reaching but I find it funny

Big Brother Australia:

Enjoyed early success
Nearly forced into cancelation in 2006 because of ‘turkey slap incident’ that caused international outrage
Cancelled 2 years later after controversy and ended with pretty disappointing final series
Got picked up by another channel, the channel one place up from Network Ten, Channel 9.
Show turned pretty tacky after switchover and proved unsuccessful
Cancelled again with last series being ‘storm’ themed


BBUK:

Enjoyed early success and became an iconic piece of british TV
Nearly forced into cancellation in 2007 with calls to drop the show after CBB5’s race row that caused international outrage
Cancelled 3 years later with pretty dissapointing last series
picked up by channel one space below Channel 4, Channel 5.
Show turned pretty tacky after switchover and proved unsuccessful
Cancelled again with last series of CBB being ‘storm’ themed

We haven't really had the confirmed cancellation as everything is pinned on this year's success - and right now CBB is doing better than it has in the last three years.

Apart from that, it's weirdly accurate

Both series also changed eyes to a basic template when they got revived, and two housemates from each country also appeared in BBCAN

I miss BB AUS. It really was so amazing for so many years.
They really made some big amateur mistakes. Channel 9 was tragic, they screwed it even more than people think C5 did to BB UK. Such a waste, and I hope it will come back because it was really really dope.
