The Block

Season 16 was superb. Season 17 is hard to enjoy beacause half cooked personalities, mainly from All Stars. Ronnie and Georgia especially manage to suck all the air out of the room. Hard to appreciate a team show when the dominating mentality is 'You are either against us or under us! Your choice!?' Please cast better on season 18.

Hi there my name is Paul ive worked for minos structral engineering and in my 8 months there ive never seen such poor quality welding especially when joining two pieces of rhs steel together welds grinded back to hide the fact of two bits of steel joined as a whole length of steel reinforcing simply because they didnt have a long enough piece of steel to begin with so they illegally join two pieces to make one hmmmm and they use unqualified boilermakers to cut cost to top it off minos the ceo abuses bullies staff and makes them wait for wages and sacks staff over phone. Ive never seen or worked in a place quite like this if the series the block is experiencing complications on there modules coved in runs from unexpirenced painters or imperfections doesn't suprise me but id be finding a much better business to make your modular.

I cannot believe the bar has fallen so low for television these days. I remember when the block was about renovating houses and not creating needless drama on set just to hold what viewers they have left. This show is just flashy advertising and no real form of entertainment anymore.

Just finished watching the finale and auction for season 17 of The Block.

Firstly, the Block crew knew who cheated, or should have known after doing a bit of digging. Tanya cheated by taking the photo of the schedule and Luke kept a "look out", so he cheated too. All four should have been thrown off the Block immediately and not rewarded with $400,000 and $565,000 respectively. These two houses must surely be always remembered as "the CHEATERS " houses!!!!

So, it's acceptable to cheat and gain an advantage and no consequences, much like our Liberal and Labour parties who lie, cheat and steal on a daily basis, with our prime minister Scott Morrison "king of the liars" running our country!

Josh and Luke's house was a lemon, with the bathroom half a mile away from spare bedroom, a one car garage and the dining table in a separate postcode to the kitchen.

The lying Tanya and Vitos home was gaudy, the bed head with the eyeballs will surely be ripped out on "move in" day and Tanya will go down in block history as the barefaced lying cheat. I don't know how she can face her family, friends and children. Sooo embarrassing! But I'm so grateful the show is over! I no longer have to listen to Vito repeating himself over and over and over and over and over again.

Congratulations to Ronnie and Georgia for their beautiful home and a huge congratulations to Kirsty and Jesse who built, budgeted and furnished one of the most exquisite homes I've ever seen on a reality show. I wish and hope that great things happen for this hard working, honest couple in the future.

If next season doesn't concentrate on the actual build but more on lying and cheating morons, then I'm done! The show is mostly Advertisements, boring furniture and ugly oval mirrors, so won't be missing much!

Caught this on Prime. Only seasons 1-4 and 10-12. Its fun to watch, but after watching 3 seasons I think the judges get their design critiques straight out of there collective snobby backends. Especially Shannya. I detest the fact that something a designer says sets the standard for the world. I would never hire Shannya for anything connected to design. Perhaps she should concentrate on styling herself first.

I also think its an unrealistic timeframe and then to make them leave for 24 hours for a challenge, even tho those are fun to watch.

Scottie, Keith and Dan are quite likeable however.

The couples...some I don't see staying together for the long term.
