They’re back! Channel 10’s revamped The Living Room returns with a brand new set and format

Channel 10 have announced its retooled version of The Living Room will return to screens on July 3.

The popular lifestyle program will see hosts Amanda Keller, Dr. Chris Brown, Miguel Maestre and Barry Du Bois back for an all-new format.

It comes as a surprise for many, following reports the show would be returning with a different name.

The new series will take place on an energised new set, and involves the cast visiting the home of an Australian family each week to ‘improve their lives with a little TLC’. 

In December 2019, the future of the show was in doubt after Ten announced it would not be returning in 2020. 

Network sources previously suggested the hosts would be hosting a similar show under another name, but that it will be produced in-house at Channel 10 rather than by the former Living Room producers WTFN.

Amanda told her WSFM listeners that the network was giving the show a new name. 

‘The four of us will be fronting a lifestyle show, but it may not be called, actually I don’t think it will be called The Living Room,’ she said at the time.

However, the network has decided to keep the original name of the show.

The show was first released in 2012 and was the network’s offering against Channel Seven’s Better Homes & Gardens. 

It also snagged the Logie Award for Most Popular Lifestyle Program in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018.
