    Decent group this year.

    Not sure I can face 50+ episodes this year, so I might just watch Sunday's room reveals (it shows weekly recaps for each team before the reveals). 🙂

    Oh the whining has already started! Day 1. I think it's the seemingly sense of entitlement that's annoying me this time around. Should be grateful for the opportunity imo

    That being said ill still watch - can't not :)

    Liking it so far, though focus this year seems to be on a potential on screen divorce for one of the couples, I suspect there would be a gofundme campaign launched to pay the costs of the husband's legal team…….

    I love the Block, but I think I'm at the stage in my life where I'll just watch the Sunday shows. It's too much of a commitment to watch it all!

    They show a recap of the week and the room reveals, and that's enough to keep track of what's going on.

    Watching it. They all seem very harmonious at the moment although Hannah is going to combust with her micro management!

    Not loving it as much as other seasons tbh….the lack of some truly hateful couple (although the older woman seems pretty horrific to her husband) and drama/interest created by having different room sizes/demolition etc has made it a little tamer than other years. Have watch the truly grim New Zealand equivalent which last time of airing was similar i.e. 5 houses all identical layout and this is reminding me of it in a bad way…………
