The Block: All Stars pumping up but MKR still rules

The Block: All Stars has topped the one million viewer mark for the second night in a row.

After scoring 1.4 million viewers to be the number one show on Sunday night, the Nine program hit 1.194m viewers within the five capital cities last night, its 16th episode of 2013.

The re-birthed format was a hit for Nine last year, but has had a slower start this year. The network is “thrilled” with its growth this week, a spokesman told Mumbrella.

But once again the biggest show of the night was Seven’s My Kitchen Rules with an average of 2.18m viewers tuning in with a peak of 2.7 million.
