Next year, 10 also welcomes Big Brother home to the network that first introduced the reality TV juggernaut to Australian audiences.
The lineup of housemates will include a cross-section of relatable, everyday Australians whom audiences will be able to interact with in real time. The Big Brother revival will launch across all Network 10 platforms in quarter four of 2025.
Monaghan said: “Big Brother, the show that started it all, is coming back to 10 where it belongs. It’ll be bigger, better and bolder than ever before.
“With 24-hour live streaming, live nominations and live evictions, viewers won’t dare miss a moment of the drama as it all unfolds in real time. Get ready Australia – Big Brother is watching.”
Also returning to 10 is the comedy quiz show Talkin’ ‘Bout Your Generation – now known as Talkin’ ‘Bout Your Gen.
With a new host and three new team captains, this intergenerational panel show pits Gen X, the Millennials and the Zoomers against each other in a battle to find out which is the best generation of ever and ever.
