The provided bar charts illustrate the percentages of four different age demographics in New Zealand who watch reality and game shows.
Overall, it is clear that reality shows are generally more popular among younger age groups, while game shows tend to attract a larger proportion of older viewers.
For reality shows, the highest viewership is seen in the 20-34 age group, with 50% watching. This is closely followed by those under 20, at 45%. However, the proportion drops significantly for older groups, with only 32% of 35-54 year olds and 18% of those 55 and over watching these programmes.
In contrast, game shows show a different pattern. The 35-54 age group has the highest percentage of viewers at 41%, slightly more than the 20-34 group (38%) and those 55 and over (36%). The youngest demographic, under 20, has the lowest engagement with game shows, at 30%.
