According to Inside Mail
Seven threw an eye-watering $15million at this MAFS-meets-Survivor ‘experiment’ narrated by Jackie O - who doesn’t come cheap. On paper, it sounded like a hit - but somewhere between the altar and the island, the whole thing got washed out to sea.
Now the blame game begins. Production company EndemolShine Australia insists it delivered the goods, but feels Seven’s promo push was half-arsed.
Some media outlets were offered just five minutes with talent. Five minutes to promote a $15million series (not including Jackie’s fee!)? Please.
