The Amazing Race Australia premieres to 635,000 metro viewers
The Amazing Race’s local iteration has returned to screens with 635,000 metro viewers on Ten.
The premiere lost out to The Block on Nine, which had 945,000, but beat Bride and Prejudice on Seven, which had 458,000.
With the addition of regional figures, The Block had 1.298m, The Amazing Race Australia 832,000, and Bride and Prejudice 698,000.
Such a shame, one of my fav franchises and left me totally flat.
Casting has let this down. The contestants have no on-screen rapport or X factor entertainment value. They’re just a bunch of boring sods thrown together ticking the race, gender, religious and sexual orientation diversity boxes.
As for Beau Ryan… He delivered zero dynamics as a host. Get this wooden pole off our TV screens, the show requires someone with an on screen presence, something Ryan is incapable of delivering.
The worst Amazing Race I have ever seen and I have never missed an episode so that is saying something
