Hate to break it to you but the show's just been renewed for another season so it must have been rating well (I don't understand Australia audiences sometimes...)

But on a more positive note, if the US race is moved up to the 8:30 timeslot then after this season ends TARAus season 2  could definitely just pick this timeslot up (which would be May 16th, coincedentally the same time of the premiere of last year's race!)

I want to write 7 a very strong letter for allowing a show as poop(had to be g rated) as this on tv and the fact that TAR is getting delayed in a already late timeslot and the fact that this poop break up my wednesday night between MKR and TAR.

 
How the flip does this get renewed for a second season. Its a stupid format and it is surpising how a show like this ends up on TV in the first place.

Thank you for making this topic

It's not Please Marry My Boy alone that does it, it's a knock on effect.

Today Tonight makes Home & Away 5 minutes late, which makes My Kitchen Rules minutes late, which makes Please Marry My Boy 25 minutes late, which makes TAR unbearably late. MKR always runs over by 10-20 minutes, it's pathetic.

Channel 7 has to fix this - either be more restricted with editing, or have less ads. But it should get better before TAR Aus starts as both MKR & Please Marry My Boy end next week.

To be fair, exact air times are usually made available around 24 hours before each episode. Seven is usually pretty exact with this sort of thing, unlike the other channels. On my Foxtel, it has exact times listed, so I'm sure they should be available elsewhere too! :tup:

I've watched bits and pieces of Please Marry My Boy. Not too bad, not too great.

I don't think the ending of Please Marry My Boy or MKR would necessarily guarantee that TAR moves earlier. :duno: I'm sure Seven has heaps of other shows that usually air on Wednesday nights and are around 8 months behind the USA coughCriminalMindscough (:;)

Although it would be great if TAR does move a little earlier. :hoot:
I'd rather walk alone than let them throw dirty confetti. ♥

I found out that TAR finale will be split over 2 wednesdays and will both start a 11 after 2 repeats of Castle.

Also a few day ago i talked to someone who talked to someone who talked to one of the Please Marry My Boy fathers (the 1st person did not tell me which father) and he said, he said that 80% of the show is scriped and all major discision (such as the 'boys' ultimate choise) are pre planded by producers.
