In South Africa we are one week off the finale of The Block Season 15 - the one realty show I have never missed over the years it's been shown here! I am absolutely disgusted and dismayed at the outright disrespect shown by contestants and added to that the blatant cheating and disregard for the show's rules. What an embarrassment Josh and Luke must be to their parents that on a show that's viewed internationally they can verbally abuse the judges. The cheating and lies told by Tanya and Vito leaves me astounded and shocked. Is this what they are reaching their children? As said, I have watched every series of The Block shown here in South Africa but am sad to say, this will be the last one. Unfortunately for the series, I'm not alone in that decision, having spent time speaking to friends and family as we all do after each show. Thanks to the contestants (namely Josh and Luke, Tanya and Vito) The Block has become just another second rate realty show where bad behaviour is seemingly acceptable and without consequence!
