Daryl Somers’ You’re Back in the Room attracts 1.15m, draws negative reviews on social media
Daryl Somers’ new hypnotism game show You’re Back In The Room drew a solid 1.15m metropolitan viewers despite being met with a steady stream of bad reviews on social media. The result is a win for Nine.
The game show, which challenges contestants to compete for cash while under hypnosis, appeared to take a chunk of audience from My Kitchen Rules, with 1.234m in the 7:00pm time slot.
That result was down on the last time MKR was screened on a Sunday when it drew 1.449m, and this was despite Seven bringing back former contestants for a cooking challenge on MKR.
The surprise strength of You’re Back In The Room helped Nine win the night with a main channel audience share of 23.6% compared with 21.8% for Seven.
WTF..?
Love it. MKR must be looking at a future ep of hypnotic cooking challenges for sure…
With what is happening around the world with terrorism so prevalent and any news night there is tragedy at home in the water, on the roads and gangland wars maybe just maybe Joe average flicked the people meter to watch the heavily promoted show, and have a laugh on a Sunday night with innocent fun. Is it a brilliant show NO, will I watch to have a laugh after the gloom YES.
This is why we can’t have nice things…
I think it was Hey Hey Factor in Week 1
The test will be weeks 2 & 3 – is the novelty sustainable??
Quite possibly as, personally, I’m done with cooking & renovation shows.
There is a lack of entertainment on Tzv.
Nine has outdone themselves. This was one of their worst shows to date.
But twitter is just electronic graffiti as Tony Abbott put it so well. I agree with #6 Buyer – that weeks 2 and 3 will be the test.
Dunno if the hypno show is any good, but I am so over food and renovation shows!
