My Kitchen Rules: The Rivals starts on Seven this Sunday at 7pm.
On Mon previous winners Dan and Steph cook; on Tues bartenders Ben and Vasil; and on Wed siblings Jake and Elle.
I missed most of the 2013 season so I want to known if Dan and Steph were that “well loved”, or if it’s just hype from Channel 7.
(And what is it with those horrible neck tatts? Did a pic search and found he was a cleanskin around the throat back then.)
It’s hype, in my opinion.
Dan and Staph made me sick. Double dipping into their food….and Ch 7’s pockets.
Dan looks like an alien insect with the weight loss plus neck tatts.
” Are you calling me a bitch?” Didn’t take long.
Bloody, under cooked ” hero” duck.
“Ze sickness of ze bisque”
😉
Hated them….
Here’s the cast. Surely only Jac and Shaz were actually favourites?
Roula and Rachael is scraping the bottom of the barrel. They were useless first time around.
These aren’t “Faves”……. but “Slaves”…… to fame.
Too true, Dave
And the fans. How many can actually cook?
Tonight’s team can’t cook.
😭😭 I have been a loyal fan of MKR and I am watching the tennis.
How can you say those are the fans favorites. Also Dan is now a qualified chef. They shouldn’t be allowed on this show.
This came on while I was making dinner, ironically, and I gave it a half an hour … which was exactly how long it was before Sophia and Romel showed up and began talking trash about their own ex-show-partners and how horrible they were (poor Ibby. He’s going to make you sleep on the couch tonight, Romel).
At which point, I switched off and didn’t regret it for a second.
From what I saw, once again, the show cast people who swear that cooking is their lives, but have clearly never stepped foot in a kitchen before in their lives. I’m not going to miss it, I don’t think.
Worst rating ever. Bye bye MKR
excellent.
but mind you they picked a ridiculous day to start with Australian Open tennis and I’m a Celebrity finals.
However, I am firmly not watching still!
The way Djokovic yelled ” Shut the fuck up” to the crowd at the tennis, he could have been on MKR.
What can I say… the first time I knew it was on last night was ten minutes ago. Last year was so bad, I really don’t think I can watch.
Well, the producers said the show was going to a “whole new level”…….worse than ever.
Maybe they finally pushed their limit on what the audience is willing to put up with?
Plus, Paleo Pete losing his audience makes me feel warm inside.
Yes especially since he was photographed recently posing for photos with a leading US anti-vaxxer – and I hate how the word leading makes him seem like an authority, but you know what I mean
‘Favourites’ = ‘Fame whore’
I watched last night as I couldn’t fathom how this 2 house thing worked. It doesn’t.
I’m so over the nasty pasties.
I think Dan and Steph cook tonight. I might switch over during ads hoping that Dan doesn’t do well. Now I’m a nasty pastie
The faves house looks like Ibby and Rommels place. I’m a goldfish when it comes to RTV but I liked I&R place and this sure looks like it.
Does anybody else think this new format is designed to save heaps of money instead of flying people around the country? Also. I’m pleased there are time limits from the start .. some of the initial instant restaurants went on for hours and hours.
One point? Yeah NUUUUUH!
Just not a fair competition. This show is going to bomb big time.
I think they still went on for hours.
Who decided that those teams were favorites? Obviously not the viewers. Haven’t watched and don’t know if I will bother. The only faves that I can stand are Jac and Shaz. Surely there were better choices than the others but, of course, they want ones who will create drama. Dan shouldn’t even be allowed to compete.
Hi guys, new year, new season. And I’ve got things to say.
Like: Still don’t like Dan and Steph, no matter with kid or with kilos or without. The story has been outtold and to be honest I really don’T want to see them cry again and again. Plus he’s doubledipping which is disgusting and he’s a freaking chef. What the hell is he doing there?
And who brought Roula and Rachel back? They were neither loved nor skilled chefs. A joke.
Loved Romel annihilating that obnoxious douchenuzzle pokerplayer. Also the stoned dudes who’re just there to kill their munchies.
Not sure about the new format – then again: half the time the people weren’t in their own homes so it doesn’t really make a difference I guess. Let’s see how it goes.
Oh gooood. I taped from servongthe main, watched the critique of the judges, saw a bit of dessert plating, Shaz & Jac eating/critiqueing, and Rommel and dominating poker dude with trash talking.
They’ve kiled it. Perhaps they have long teem contract with Pete and a dead show is the only way to rip it up without penalty.
It is interesting to think of MKR as a depreciating asset that Ch 7 is running into ze ground.
We’ll soon see how “our most loved contestants” went in the ratings last night.
Its not rocket science to work out who were involved in the so call sex scandal.
LP, I have not watched a second of this season. Is it newbies or returnees?
They are showing Roula ( returnee) having an interest with Ben ( newbie)
How they are in the same house , I don’t know.
I knew there was a sex scandal but not the particulars – as explained in that rather explicit article. Oh my. And very wrong for that footage to be circulated
Wait, there’s a sex scandal this year?
Didn’t they learn their lesson last year, when they tried to dig into that MAFS territory and manifacture a sex scandal between two of the contestants?
Gosh this show is disgusting.
I need a vomit emoji … this faux MAFS shit is nauseating.
Where did they find these contestants? Sue Ann is embarassing and from my birth country! 🙈🙈🙈
I had it on for about 20 minutes last night and that was enough, I don’t need to see any more. Bitchy backbiting, people I didn’t like before, people I don’t know, more bitchiness…pffft.
Can’t see MKR being shown at prime time. Will be gone soon. Last night rating is just above 400K. Beaten by show from ABC and SBS.
Now I have nothing to watch in the evening. Back to SBS food channel
You could give Survivor a try? I wasn’t going to watch, this season (because last season was pretty underwhelming), but two episodes in and it’s hooked me.
I’m with you Littlepetal. I’m happy with authentic approaches to food, even if it’s the 100th re-run of an episode of The Cook and The Chef. As for MKR, we could probably get nostalgic about the blue domes of death (or were they red?)! They played their part in culinary creation, not in a pantomime.
I watched the MKR encore. All feud …….. no food.
We didn’t go Mexico, we went to hell.
Has anybody in Sydney worked out where the separate houses are?
Big H-your wish is my command.
Found the address for the harbourside mansion.
68 Drumalbyn Road, Bellevue.
I cannot believe I watched parts of the first 2 episodes…. but, I did. Is Not so porky anymore Pork Chop really a trained chef now? If so, how embarrassing is it to ask in a Coles which chicken is best for a Chicken Ballotine.
That “love story” is so badly scripted, it was just a cringefest. Speaking of cringefest, that older Asian lady, what the…???

Trounced in the ratings and tonight is predicted to be 1 MAFS 2 Survivor 3 MKR

“leading crackpot” sounds better. “Leading flat earther”

The Favs are house in an innercity warehouse.
Many thanks LP!

It’s both amusing and frightening that “Pete Evansing” has become a verb.
