If you’re a fan of Gogglebox, you’re going to love Foxtel and Network Ten’s Common Sense.
Instead of TV shows, the cast of Common Sense will share their two cents on current affairs and politics.
Produced by Endemol Shine Australia, this new series will feature the thoughts, feelings and opinions of every day Australians reacting to the biggest talking points of the week.
Drawing from newspapers, radio, magazines and websites, Common Sense will cover a wide range of stories – from the headlines everyone is talking about to the more obscure stories viewers might have missed.
Lord Frank and Robert will appear on Common Sense.
The cast of Common Sense includes:
Hairdressing mums Nicki (33) and Kathy (45)
Former business partners Robert (70) and Lord Frank (74)
Removalists and best mates Brett (29) and Lawrence (27)
Opinionated retirees Jean (92), Aileen (89) and Ted (86)
Entrepreneurs and self-proclaimed pop culture junkies Helen (30) and Sarah (32)
Cheeky young real estate agents Jake (29) and Ayden (21)
Young barrister Neal (39) and his mentor Mark (53)
The potato-selling Yip family of Darren (49), Trudi (46), Matthew (39) and Eileen (70)
Mother-and-daughter team Lois (75) and Michelle-Ann (49), along with Betty (78), all of whom are partners in a bra shop
Quintessentially Aussie butchers, Luke (26) and Eric (56).
Common Sense is the second jointly commissioned series between Foxtel and Network Ten, and follows on from the enormous success of Gogglebox, which launched in Australia in 2015 and has since won two TV Week Logie Awards.
The new series will premiere at 7:30pm on Lifestyle Wednesday, July 5 and at 8:30pm on Network 10 on Thursday, July 6.
