How long do the UK 'big reality shows' have left?
 

How long do you think each of the 'big reality shows' airing in the UK annually have left?

BBUK - 2 years, will be axed after 2018.
CBBUK - 4 years, will be axed after 2020.
TXF UK - 4 years, will be axed after 2020.
BGT - 9 years, will be axed after 2025.
IAC - 9 years, will be axed after 2025.
The Voice UK - 3 years, will be axed after 2019.
GGBO - 3/4 years, will fizzle out and be axed by 2020 for sure.
The Jump - 1 year, will be axed after 2017.

IAC will end up being the longest running UK one ever I think.

I don't get why BGT is so popular, i always thought that was one of the worst, I think I just about managed one season of that

I think with BGT and IAC, it's because they're fairly short running compared to the other's and so it feels more of an event when it's coming back on telly. Moreso IAC as that's only on for 3 weeks of the 52 week year and it's been associated with Christmas in the UK which has managed to embed it in British culture.

BBUK/CBBUK are on for like 16 weeks a year and so it always feels like the last series and has only just ended (which is literally the case with BBUK and summer CBBUK) and the same with TXF. Everyone is usually like 'It doesn't feel five minutes since it was last on!' when the XF adverts start appearing in July/August.

What about The Apprentice?

I dont see CBB or BB ending. Do Channel 5 get any viewers for any other programme? The show isnt a success compared to other shows, but it is a success for Channel 5.. So probably ten years. I agree BGt and IAC will outlast the rest. Apprentice will last for 2 seasons after Sugar gives in. And the rest wont last too long.

X Factor has to go.

:laugh: I love BB but even I don't think I could put up with another ten years of it.
