10 years and still going strong: People look forward to the return of Gogglebox Australia
- Replies 17
The Australian television landscape has seen many shows come and go, but one that has stood the test of time is the beloved series, Gogglebox Australia.
For fans of the reality show, it's been a long experience filled with laughter, tears, and the shared love of television.
This year, the show is celebrating a remarkable milestone—a decade on air. That's right, Gogglebox Australia is back for its 10th consecutive year.
Foxtel announced the return of this smash-hit series, which will be back on screens on February 21.
This marks an impressive 10-year run for the reality program, a testament to its enduring popularity and the unique entertainment value it offers.
Gogglebox Australia, adapted from the British series of the same name, has a simple yet captivating premise.
It films a diverse group of Aussie households as they watch and comment on the week's popular television shows and films from the comfort of their own living rooms.
The result is a hilarious, honest, and often insightful commentary on contemporary television and culture.
Over the years, the show has introduced us to a host of memorable characters, each bringing their unique perspectives and humour to the screen.
Seasoned Gogglebox originals such as the cricket-mad Delpechitra Family, lovable grandparents Lee and Keith, Greek best friends Anastasia and Faye, and the tight-knit Dalton family have become household names.
Their candid reactions and witty banter have endeared them to viewers across the country.
The upcoming season will also see the return of newer additions to the Gogglebox family.
These include best mates and larrikins, Adam and Symon; food-loving siblings Tim and Leanne; avid surfers and best friends Milo and Nic; friends Kevin, Bob, Jared and Mia; Matty along with sons Malik and baby Lyon plus Uncle Jad; and the dynamic mother-daughter duo, Kerry and Izzy.
Sadly, last year saw the departure of the Silbery family matriarch, Grandma Emmie, due to a dementia diagnosis. However, a recent emotional reunion took place for Emmie and her reality show co-stars Keith and Lee Riley.
Gogglebox Australia's success is not just limited to its longevity.
Since its premiere a decade ago, the show has won an impressive six TV Week Logie Awards and has been nominated seven times at the AACTA Awards. It even scored a Factual Entertainment Program nomination at the 2024 AACTAs on February 10.
The show's popularity has also led to the creation of Celebrity Gogglebox Australia, a yearly one-episode special that gives awareness for ReachOut Australia.
Last year's line-up included radio stars Carrie Bickmore and Fifi Box, comedians Anne Edmonds and Lloyd Langford, The Great Australian Bake Off judge Darren Purchese and host Natalie Tran, and The Real Housewives of Sydney stars Krissy Marsh and Nicole O’Neil.
The whole cast was topped off by returning critics from a previous season: Dave ‘Hughesy’ Hughes with his wife Holly Ife and The Irwins—Terri, Bindi and Robert.
As we gear up for another season of Gogglebox Australia, we can't wait to see what our favourite couch critics have to say about the latest TV shows and films.
So, grab your popcorn, settle into your comfiest couch, and get ready for a new season of laughs, gasps, and good-natured banter.
Gogglebox Australia premieres at 7.30 pm on February 21 in Foxtel and will also be available On Demand. Don't miss out on the fun!

oh well 
well I consider myself to be reasonably intelligent relljube, and I am sure you are too. Just because we find Gogglebox entertaining does make us mindless twits 
just open minded☺ I think if more people were they just may find they get a giggle out of it, and that's what important in life now, too much sadness in the World so a harmless show like that is there to entertain and put smile on your face. I was not sure at first but tuned it and it was fun and some of the cast are quite delightful. ☺
