First Dates premiere – catch-up TV

I missed the premiere of First Dates on Seven on Wednesday night. Goodness knows why – it’s not like My Kitchen’s Rank, Celeb Charades in the Jungle and Farmer Wants a Missus all launched in the same week. But now it’s Friday night and TV schedule is a little clearer, so it’s time to check … Continue reading First Dates premiere – catch-up TV

I’m a Celebrity Ep 5 Recap

Many thanks to Erin, who sent this terrific recap in while I was at the Nick Offerman show. Ten gold stars for you, Erin. I AM PEACEFUL, I AM POWERFUL, I AM PURE! Chris and Julia open the show walking across the wobbly bridge – seriously thought Julia was going to stack it, that would … Continue reading I’m a Celebrity Ep 5 Recap

MKR recap episode 3

I was going to do a live recap (SA time) of tonight’s Cougar Town episode but I had to poke my eyes out after that glimpse of slinky nightie cleavage in the first minute. I’ll resume recapping when I’m able. In the meantime, comment away! Okay, I found some prosthetic eyes and am ploughing on … Continue reading MKR recap episode 3

MKR episode 2 recap

It’s Tuesday night and time for the second, hopefully more impressive, round of MKR. It’s the Curly Wurlies and the establishment shots will make everyone want to visit Mornington Peninsula in Vic. Gorgeous. Wikipedia says their home town of Shoreham only has 400-odd people. Being farm kids they are big fans of nose-to-tail eating so … Continue reading MKR episode 2 recap

I’m A Celeb – Ep 2 and chat

Just fast forwarded through Mon night’s Celeb, mainly to see the reaction to Warnie’s arrival. Honestly, is anyone going to watch this every night, especially when there is so much else on? If anyone is mad enough to do so, feel free to email me recaps, as I can’t see myself watching regularly unless a … Continue reading I’m A Celeb – Ep 2 and chat

The Farmer Wants A Wife premiere recap

Dear Daisy has kindly offered to take a crack at recapping the next ep (if anyone else wants to tackle other shows, be my guest!), so in the meantime here are a few thoughts on last night’s premiere. We open with shots of farmers wistfully staring into the distance. They are pondering their heart-rending loneliness … Continue reading The Farmer Wants A Wife premiere recap

Yet another reality shows kicks off this week. First Dates premieres on Channel at 9pm Wednesday, February 3. Will it get lost in the flood of other shows which have already built up loyal audiences?

MKR season premiere recap

Ah, MKR. There you are. Where would we be without new reality show cooks to moan about? Montage and more montage, then Kitchen HQ. How many minutes will it be before someone actually turns on a stove – I’m guessing at least 17. Manu welcomes the best home “kooks” and says Sydney’s Monique and Sarah … Continue reading MKR season premiere recap
