The bar chart illustrates the percentage of viewers from four different age groups in New Zealand who watch reality shows and game shows.
Overall, game shows generally attract older audiences, with viewership increasing with age. In contrast, reality shows are more popular among younger demographics, particularly those under 34.
For reality shows, the 18-34 age group shows the highest viewership at 45%, closely followed by the under 18 category at 35%. Viewership then declines steadily with age, dropping to 30% for those aged 35-54, and reaching its lowest point at 20% among people 55 and over.
Conversely, game shows demonstrate an opposite trend. Only 20% of viewers under 18 watch game shows, which is the lowest percentage across all groups for this category. This figure rises to 30% for the 18-34 age group, then increases significantly to 40% for 35-54 year olds, and peaks at 50% among those 55 and over.
