Extra serve of MKR

By David Knox on March 16, 2010 / Filed Under Programming 14

Tonight’s 90 minute episode of My Kitchen Rules is now 100 minutes.

Instead of ending at 9pm, it will end at 9:10pm, pushing back the start times for Grey’s Anatomy (9:10pm), Brothers and Sisters (10:10pm), Super Skinny Me (11:10pm) and a repeat of Blue Heelers (12:10am).

Or maybe it’s just Seven scheduling falling into place with what’s been going on anyway. I don’t remember the last time an episode of MKR actually ended at 8:30pm? More like 8:37pm. Still, audiences are obviously liking the show.

The show has its finale next Monday.

    What a Yawn of a Show.I bet you Nines Big Bang Theory which is far more entertaining and a light way of comedy to start the week has eaten MKR alive in ratings.what would you rather watch.laughter or cooking.

    Scheduled to finish originally at 9.00, then 9.10. The actual program finished at 9.14. What a joke!

    Thanks to this yawn of a copycat cooking show running 12+ minutes overtime every single Monday, coupled with me scheduling Q&A to record as well the past two weeks, means despite decent timer padding I’ve had the last section of Desperate Housewives chopped off two weeks running.

    Why do I bother watching that one on Seven instead of elsewhere, again? Anyone?

    Maybe my complaints have worked. I’ve sent complaints to 7 and 10 everytime a shows gone overtime. Now they either stick to scheduled time or tell us 8.40 etc

    I had MKR set for 7.30 – 9.00 but had Greys set to record 9.00 – 10.30 just incase. Not home tonight; haven’t been home all week; have alot to catch up on.

    Sounds like Timer reocrd and watch it at your won leisure, just record for 30 mins longer than you would expect!!!!! At elast they warn us this time!!!!

    I agree with K fed Ch7 will lose viewers big time this week after MKR(sucks)

    With Brothers & Sisters starting so late they may as well skip it for a week.

    Correction! – The EPG says 9:11pm, David. :P
