Australian renovation reality show "The Block" just ended with a huge, sad, depressing, very upsetting, dumb-dumb anti-climax.
So, we need to discuss a few things.
1. The overall profit was SO LOW :'(
The agents commission would have been more than the last three contestants made #theblock
2.
Wow the block was shocking. I feel for them. Imagine working months n investing so much in an aptmt, n earning only $10k frm it. Crazy.
3.
Did couples get paid while on @TheBlock9. if not I've made more in 3 months watching than two of the couple did on it #theblockauction
4.
10k for 3 months work, thats $416 each a week...for that effort of work. Gutting #theblock
5. And the reserves were so high :'(((((((((((((
Seriously, WTF. The reserves on #TheBlock are so high it's near-impossible for contestants to win money? So, 3 months of slave DIY labour?
6.
God, I feel uncomfortable watching this #TheBlock
7.
I just wanna hug all the contestants of the block and make them a huge chocolate cake tell them everything's gonna be alright
8.
What a crap ending for the last three couples on #theblock that might put off a few entrants for next yr yikes #unlucky
9.
I'm not watching The Block anymore bc now I'm sad
10.
my year schooling life is like the block; ive worked for 13 years, and will only end up with a 20 atar at the end of it
11. And no one wanted to be a contestant anymore :( :'(( :'(
Who wants to be a contestant on the The Block now? Hahaha NOT ME! #theblock
12. No one was happy :'(
Tbhhh I did not spend three months watching this show every day for an unhappy ending. #theblock
13.
Did I actually just shed a tear over real estate? Holy shit, I need to get out. #TheBlock #SingleLife
14.
Saddest win ever. Congrats #ShannonandSimon. @TheBlock9 #theblock
15.
I don't know what just happened on the block but I'm not having none of that
16. And the overall blocking of "The Block" became a real reality.
The Block is a popular TV show but also the move I perform whenever I see any updates relating to that show.
17.
Nothing says "Watch our next series of #TheBlock" like a room full of crying contestants who just made almost no money. #theblockauction
18.
I don't normally swear on the internet but FUCK YOU @TheBlock9
19. But really, we got what we deserved.
This is karma for all of you actually watching the Block.
20.
Do you see what you get?! #TheBlock
21. And it's important to put things in perspective.
The Block paid for your wedding guys and $40k is $40k more than a lot of people earn in a year. #theblock
All we can do now is be strong.
And stoic.
And and and and...
OH WHO ARE WE KIDDING!
