The Australian networks are entirely to blame for this predicament.

I have a feeling Seven might try and ‘one up’ MAFS & Survivor by beginning MKR on Jan 28th. That is why they’re keeping their cards close to their chest

While it’ll result in it going up both the Australian Open and the tail end of I’m a Celeb, it’s probably a smarter strategy than going head-to-head against MAFS from the beginning

I have a feeling that’s exactly what they’re planning and they just don’t want to give the plan away to the competitors who might try something else to interrupt them.

According to The Sunday Telegraph’s interview with Sophia, Romel, Dan and Steph, MKR: The Rivals will premiere on Sunday, February 2 at 7pm, up against Australian Open men’s singles final and probably the grand final of I’m a Celebrity Get Met Out of Here.

That’s a bad move in my opinion. I can understand the show airing on that Sunday if it began on the previous Tuesday (like I suggested) for continuity purposes. However, Seven are doing an ‘aging’ show like MKR no favours premiering it against both the Australian Open men’s final which will likely feature one (if not two) of Nadal, Djokovic & Federer and the I’m a Celeb GF - a show viewers are already invested in

I’m very confused at this point! Is this replacing the regular MKR Season? Or is this an addition? And what’s the deal with MKR POO? Is that an additional as well? 🤣

It’s just like a regular MKR but half the contestants are returnees. It’s just subtitled The Rivals. So MKR:The Rivals.

It’s unclear what’s happening with POO. It started out as a totally separate show but then there was a report that it would come under the MKR umbrella. So it might end up being MKR:Plate of Origin.

I’ll wait and see how this series rates.  
The promo’s are turning me totally off.  
I’ve found this show to be watchable in the past when there is nothing better on and I’m prepared to be braid dead for an hour or so.  
It’s always been contrived (and what “reality” show isn’t), but this year it looks like contrived squared.  
It’ll either work well or sink.  
My preference is always for new meat in this sort of show, and I’m not keen on recycling past contestants, who in many cases, we were just about sick of when their original series ended.

They’re about 3 years late with this refresh. If they really wanted such a revamp in format they should’ve done it a few years ago and incorporate it after the instant restaurant rounds.

Could’ve rejuvenated the show and prevented MAFS from beating MKR.
