Looks like The Floor will take over Married at First Sight’s timeslot when the latter finishes in April.
Is it possible that The Floor will share the Monday-Wednesday 7.30pm timeslot with other shows (e.g. Travel Guides) during the week?
The bigger question is why does this show need to be stripped? One night a week would work perfectly fine.

Who said it was being stripped?
Johnson said shared, as in airing one day, Travel Guides the next, another show the next day. All at 7:30pm.

I have watched the US version of this show and it is quite addictive. We got through the US season quite quickly so I think it would work well as a short/sharp series across multiple nights. When I saw the promos, I just assumed that it would mostly take MAFS place in April and then could likely be aired out before Easter.

Do we have a launch date? There’s so many promos but they all say “Coming Soon”? I’m guessing after the non-ratings period ends (after Easter)?

I would guess they are planning for Easter Monday or that week but I’m not sure I’ve see a MasterChef date either. The networks often hold off on them to try and get a head start or avoiding launching on the same night as other networks shows.

The Floor and Travel Guides will be a powerful combo for Nine on Monday nights.

If The Floor is going to a 7.30 slot then surely Travel Guide will be moving to a different day, aka Sunday? They wouldn’t want to waste either show in the 8.30 slot with nothing else on other days.
You think The Floor is going to be an instant hit? 
Definitely. It was a hit in the U.S.

Just because it was a hit in the US doesn’t mean it will be a hit here.

I guess it depends on your definition of “hit”.
The Floor is currently the second most popular show on FOX and 61st overall on TV.

With it airing at Mondays at 7.30pm, I hope it remains there during its run. If successful. And not add random episodes on a “special night” of a Tuesday to milk it. Less is more.
How many episodes have they filmed ?

Let’s see how the gogglebox crew will react to this show
I’m not sure if this has been posted elsewhere but during the MAFS finale I’m pretty sure they showed that it is starting Monday 28th April. So I’d assume that Travel Guides will move to Sunday that week and The Floor will air at least a couple of nights per week from Monday’s at 7.30pm.
I think it has a lot of potential. It was promoted heavily during MAFS and also will have exposure during Travel Guides too just before it airs. Game shows like the 1% club are doing well so I think it will at least do similar and might grab additional interest as its new. I find The Floor much more addictive too (having watched the US version) as the same contestants play the season and are eliminated across the episodes, so it has that hook to keep viewers coming back.

Saw some digital outdoor advertising for this yesterday saying it was “coming soon”, surprised it hadn’t been updated with an airdate yet.
