Foxtel have confirmed they will no longer be airing Gogglebox Australia.
The news was announced by Isabelle Silbery, a member of one of the families who starred in the show, as she revealed they will not return to the Australian reality television series in 2025 when it will be shown only on Network 10.
The show has been a co-production between Foxtel’s LifeStyle Channel and Network 10 with Foxtel showing episodes one day before they were aired on 10.
In an Instagram post on Thursday, Isabelle Silbery revealed the show would continue on Network 10, but that she and her family would not be part of it.
She shared photos from the show of herself, her mother Kerry, grandmother Emmie – who starred with them until 2023 – and her baby daughter, Ruby.
Silbery wrote in the caption: “It’s with a very heavy heart to announce that Mum, Ruby and I will not be returning to Gogglebox in 2025.
“Foxtel have decided not to renew our beloved show and although the show will continue on Channel 10, the three of us have not been included in its new form.
“Nine years ago, I saw an opportunity to showcase real women’s voices across multi generations. Baby Ruby filling in for Emmie in recent seasons made it feel full circle. 🥰
“It has been an absolute pleasure sharing our lounge rooms with you all and cannot thank you enough for the love and support. It might be the end of an era but it’s also an opportunity for new exciting beginnings… ✨” she added.
A spokesperson for Foxtel Group confirmed they would no longer be airing the show on LifeStyle.
“The TV show about watching people watch TV. Nobody believed in it, but Foxtel did.
“Since 2015 we have broadcast Gogglebox Australia into our lounge rooms – putting a mirror not only up to Australian television but Australian culture, humour and entertainment.
“We have laughed, cried and shared many iconic moments together alongside the Gogglebox households.
“As Gogglebox Australia moves onto its next era, we want to thank our partners at Endemol Shine Australia and every single family that opened their houses to take part in this wonderful adventure.”
