Big Brother:
-The pattern of women always losing to men in finals only to be broken by local meninist nicole of all people.
-Also i think the OTEV winner has never won as welll if im remembering correct?
Suvivor:
the fly curse - for a LONG time whenever the editors went out of their way to show people with flies on their face those people ended up never winning and it became a bit of a trope. I think it was broken somewhere in the 20's but it was iconic back in the day
The car curse - the infamous car curse, doesnt really need to be explained to any self respecting survivor fan
Amazing Race:
-Leg 3 curse: for a while whoever won leg 3 never went on to win the season. took 24 seasons to break (eww @ dave and connor being the ones to break it)
In terms of iconinity id say the car curse by far imo to the point where it became kinda mainstream. the most impressive in terms of statistics id say probably goes to amazing race.
my personal fave though has to be the fly curse, seeing the fly on davie's face during the challenge reminded me of the days where id see a fly on someone and then sprint to sucks after an ep and watch everyone perpetuate the conspiracy < 3

The person to walk through the front door FIRST has always lost in all 20 seasons of BB + OTT + CBB + ALL 6 SSNS OF BBCAN
Big Brother:
Paul getting second in a 5-4 vote where all the votes could be read without revealing the winner until the last one going from Juror #9 to Juror #1
I think the otev one is way too specific to be a curse. Maybe the 4th place getters being the same genders for several seasons until its broken and then that gender is cursed
