Big Brother fans want a season with an older cast
On January 5, a BB fan took toRedditto pitch their idea of having a season of Big Brother where all of the contestants would be over the age of 60.
After hearing their idea, multiple people chimed in their approval in the hopes of it actually materializing into a real season.
One fan wrote, “Everyone there thinking they’re literally the wisest person ever who gives zero f**ks about social media?! SIGN ME UP TO WATCH THAT DRAMA.”
Another fan wrote, “I love the idea. I’m so bored of most reality shows trying to cast like some MTV dating show. Like, competition shows are not dating shows, why do most of the contestants need to be young and hot model looking people?”
