Network 10 has confirmed the return of Talkin’ ‘Bout Your Gen, with Anne Edmonds set to host, and a new lineup of team captains representing three generations of Australians.

Comedian Dave Hughes will captain Gen X, bringing his signature dry humour to represent the generation raised on grunge and VHS tapes. Tommy Little will head up Gen Y, offering a millennial perspective shaped by skinny jeans and smartphones. Standup comedian Anisa Nandaula will lead Gen Z, the youngest cohort, known for their digital fluency and social awareness.

The returning series promises a mix of nostalgia and contemporary culture, featuring challenges designed to test knowledge across eras. According to 10, viewers can expect “nostalgic throwbacks, modern mayhem, and challenges that’ll have the whole family shouting answers at the screen.”

The format is a local adaptation of the UK panel show and has previously aired in multiple iterations on Australian television. This upcoming season continues the tradition of intergenerational banter while reflecting the evolving media habits and cultural touchpoints of each group.

Talkin’ ‘Bout Your Gen is scheduled to air soon on 10 and 10 Play.
