Correct - in March Gogglebox announced
But when the new season premiere date was announced a month ago there was no change to the cast.
Last night there was some funny editing when Survivor came on.The Silbery family were eating chips and they kept playing a crunching noise over Survivor snippets, then flick back to the family eating the chips. First from the grandmother eating chips then the mother. They even showed the grandmother burping after eating a big pile of chips. It was hilarious and I canât recall them doing much like that before on Gogglebox.

Watching the season premiere tonight, I realise the small captions on the bottom left of the screen are now showing the network instead of the production company or companies for each program.
Opens up lots of possibilities for product placement. âSmiths Chips - as heard on Goggleboxâ.

No, the episodes of Bachelor and Survivor reviewed on this weekâs Gogglebox were shown in the past week.
I wasnât referring to those. The Kylie Kwong episode of Anhâs Brush With Fame originally aired on July 17.

Yep, thatâs what I said when it aired last night, I guess because it was probably one they could ensure got the emotions going and play on the emotions, it was news a few weeks ago for a few reasons and then they had it appear in the same stories last night - her fatherâs reaction to her coming out and the glasses being different for instance and then in the news today the stories about Goggleboxâs return were about the tears from her telling her story. Had any other episode been reviewed they wouldnât have been able to grab the headlines like that.
I think they can only really justify that by doing it in the first episode of the series, doing it in later episodes is a bit of a stretch for the premise of the show but even then, Iâd prefer it if it was all recent stuff like itâs portrayed.

With the Love Me As I Am segment (which IMO, was right up there with the look at Seachange as being this weekâs highlight), Iâm surprised that Gogglebox mainly decided to focus around the segments with Johnny rather than the engaged couple with downs syndrome who I think were completely omitted from the reviewed/cut down version of events.
Of course, what does not surprise me at all is the amount of laughs generated from the households during the contraception demonstration segment and the âDoesnât look that realâ comment from auburn-haired Aspie Adelaide! 
Some of the Love Me As I Am segments with Adelaide that Gogglebox (perhaps quite wisely) decided not to show reviews ofâŚI seriously hope nobody pressured her to be part of the workshop/attend the ball/be on national TV because at times, she appeared really uncomfortable to be part of it at all!
Having said all that though, Iâd still much rather see Gogglebox review documentaries and one-off specials which feature people in society who arenât normally shown on television in a positive light than the more toxic and manufactured dating/relationship/wedding ârealityâ programs that are particularly loved by our commercial networks.

I think the kylie Kwong episode may be strategic on tens part ahead of a possible
Upcoming announcement.
That Kylie could return to MasterChef as a judge?
Are we sure that there wasnât any repeat of it in any of the ABC or ABC multichannelâs this week? I also think that theyâve only done this being the very first episode of the series and it got a bit of attention in the media, so was perfect for the first episode.
It was repeated this week, I think it was 6pm on Sunday. My recorder picked it up.
I missed the return of it and it isnât on 10Play⌠sometimes it is on Youtube but now Youtube is taking it down .
it is on 10play
All i see is

A more enjoyable, light hearted episode tonight. Plenty of laughs.
Let me guessâŚthey just had to get a review of The Block in there after leaving it out of last weekâs jam packed episode? 
The Block gets the review it deserves. Not surprised they covered The Bachelor given the controversy over a certain comment last week. Plenty of off beat, niche shows this week that received interesting reactions. I wouldnât recommend watching it with your granny.
