They are promoting Farmer Wants A Wife so id say that will run Wednesday and Thursday once they get through the Instant Restaurants round.
A pretty poor schedule from Seven. It’s like they’re only programming 1.5 hours in primetime with MKR and then imports to fill the rest of the slots. No depth whatsoever.
My biggest problem with the schedule is th episode lengths for MKR. 1hr 45 minutes on Monday. 1:40 on Tuesday. They should have kept to a maximum of 1:15 or so to reintroduce the format.
Should return after the Games, the following week.
Coming to Wednesday 17 August 7:30 PM

Those time slots for The Latest are insane. 11:30pm?? Who is honestly up that late looking for news?
Very few. ABC Late News is a better option. The problem is the programs that Seven has in the earlier timeslots get better demos but more importantly better 7-day catch up numbers of +60% whereas no-one records The Latest to watch later in the week.
Very odd for Seven not to show Brisbane v Melbourne on main channel in Brisbane on the Friday, given a top 4 spot could still be up for grabs by then.
I wouldn’t count out a few MediaSpyers parking up for an omnibus in all honesty
Sky News has bulletins at 11pm and 12am (although they’re also live into Perth and WA). Someone’s watching.
The one night The Latest is on somewhat earlier but look at the 3 hours of crap on before it.
If 7 had a news channel, The Latest could be live at say 9/9.30, then replayed at 11/11.30 on the main channel.
The ten people who would want to watch it would be grateful.
Yes we would
Can’t help but feel Seven might potentially be making a mistake launching MKR tonight rather than use the last two nights of the Commonwealth Games to ‘spoil’ the launches of both The Block and The Masked Singer before beginning MKR on Tuesday night.
I get the logic behind what the network is doing in that they feel they can’t give their rival shows a head start over MKR. However, the Comm Games (when it hasn’t been up against the AFL & NRL) has been pulling between 600,000 and early 700,000 a night. If I was a scheduler seeing those figures over the last week, I would rather capitalise on Australia’s success during these Comm Games (especially considering tonight is the biggest night medals-wise) for as long as possible rather than take a risk on the MKR return.
Let’s hope there is no repeat of what happened when MKR resumed following the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games over four years ago. If I remember correctly, Seven skipped parts of the Closing Ceremony and the CC itself was given some scathing criticism by Johanna Griggs and Basil Zempilas.
The Closing Ceremony was widely panned by everyone so they were actually spot on with their opinions. They were hired as commentators, not publicists for the Commonwealth Games, so their comments were fair enough.
