Seven’s My Kitchen Rules has taken out third place in Tuesday’s TV ratings, as Alisha and Deanne branded a rival team’s dumpling entree an “absolute disaster”.
The episode pulled a national total TV average audience of 1.086 million, reaching 1.83 million viewers, with a further 224,000 watching via BVOD.
In the episode, best mates Angus and Simon served duck and shiitake mushroom dumplings with orange and anise sauce for their entree, but the dish failed to impress Alisha and Deanne.
The pair initially described the dumplings as “something that looks like you’d order at a restaurant”, but their verdict soon turned sour, labelling the entree an “absolute disaster”.
Angus and Simon had said they felt “really good about the entree”, explaining they had taken their time with the preparation and considered what the food meant to them. However, the effort did not translate into universal approval at the dinner table.
Outside the kitchen, Seven’s Home And Away was another strong performer, ranking fourth overall with an average audience of 973,000 and a total reach of 1.43 million.
Over on Nine, Euro House attracted an average audience of 554,000, reaching 1.377 million viewers, while Love Island Australia drew an average audience of 460,000 and reached 1.152 million. The reality dating show also recorded 309,000 BVOD viewers, the highest BVOD average audience among Tuesday’s top 30 programs.
On ABC, 7.30 secured an average audience of 657,000, while The State Of Man followed with 380,000. Meanwhile, The Cheap Seats pulled in an average audience of 427,000 for Network 10.
