My Kitchen Rules set to return for new season despite being trampled in the ratings as casting call opens
My Kitchen Rules is back for a new season in 2024.
The cooking show, which has suffered a ratings decline, announced a casting call for next year's series.
The official Instagram account for the Channel Seven program posted that it was 'Australia's favourite cooking show' and set for a comeback.
'MRK is back for 2024, and for that, we need you!' the caption read, alongside an image of judges Manu Feildel and Colin Fasnidge.
'Casting is now open; head to mykitchenrulescasting.com.au to apply and to join @cfassnidge and me at the MKR table.

Back in September the premiere of the cooking competition's 13 season managed to draw in just 470,000 viewers in the major capitals.
MKR did not even finish in the top ten most-watched programs overnight, a far cry from its ratings heyday a decade ago when it would pull in well over a million viewers an episode.
MKR returned to Channel Seven in 2022, two years after it was axed.
Debuting to just 500,000 viewers, the show has continued to shed fans in the metro centres.
Channel Seven axed My Kitchen Rules: The Rivals from Sunday night's programming back in 2020.

The struggling cooking show was replaced by a 'rushed-to-air' documentary about koalas being rescued during the recent bushfires.
MKR's Sunday episodes struggled to compete with the likes of Married At First Sight, Dancing with the Stars and I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!
The show's ratings, which plunged to a record low, were said to be untenable and Seven executives were 'pushing' to cancel it in 2020.
A source told the magazine: 'MKR is no longer safe. There are people in power pushing to end the show for good.'
However, it returned in 2022, but has continued to struggle in the ratings.
