Daniel welcomes his new partner in crime, Mel B who looks fantastic, who came runner up in the US version. Mel comes across very sincere and even though she says she is nervous, she’s not coming across that way. I prefer her to Sonia already. Continue reading »

Once again, we ask – just how much is too much reality TV?
From April 15, there will be major chunks of our weekly schedule where reality TV will air on Seven, Nine and Ten at the same time.
Even without confirmation of all timeslots (at time of posting), it is clear that reality fans will need at least a twin channel PVR, and the ability to watch a third channel live as well as alot of time on their hands to be able to catch everything on offer from April 15. This does not take into account titles coming to Foxtel, nor US titles in the mix.
At 6.30pm Sunday April 15, Ten will continue with The Biggest Loser. At the same time, Nine will launch new singing reality show The Voice, while Dancing with the Stars is back on Seven for yet another season.
Monday April 16 sees The Biggest Loser continue at 7pm, now up squarely against Nine’s The Block 2012, which is set to air 7pm weeknights. The Biggest Loser and The Block will air at the same time Monday to Thursday.
Interrupting Nine and Ten’s 7pm starting shows, will be Seven’s Australia’s Got Talent from 7.30pm Monday April 16, continuing on Tuesday and Wednesday night that week.
On Wednesday April 18, Nine premieres the second season of Celebrity Apprentice Australia from 8pm.
At time of writing, we do not yet know what other nights The Voice will air on, other than its premiere night, nor if Celebrity Apprentice will air more than once per week.
But even before these times are added to the schedule, there are timeslots where all three commercial networks are airing reality TV. For those who do not like reality TV? Try ABC, SBS or time to give the digitals a look-in during prime time.
Looking at Sunday – Wednesday, here’s the summary of overlapping reality shows across the three commercial channels.
Sunday April 15
6.30-7.30 3 – DWTS / Loser / Voice
7.30-9.00 1 – DWTS
Monday April 16
7.00-7.30 2 – Loser / Block
7.30-8.00 3 – Loser / Block / AGT
8.00-9.00 1 – AGT
Tuesday April 17
7.00-7.30 2 – Loser / Block
7.30-8.00 3 – Loser / Block / AGT
8.00-8.30 1 – AGT
Wednesday April 18
7.00-7.30 2 – Loser / Block
7.30-8.00 3 – Loser / Block / AGT
8.00-8.30 2 – AGT / CelebAp
8.30-9.00 1 – CelebAp
In coming weeks, The Biggest Loser will conclude, and Masterchef will take over its 7pm timeslots, as well as at least an hour on Sunday nights. Additional timeslots for The Voice and Celebrity Apprentice not yet confirmed. Australia’s Got Talent will settle into a regular weekly Tuesday night timeslot, and The Amazing Race Australia will air probably from a date in May.
