Empty Nesters return to SBS
Gotta give points to SBS for re-programming this series about empty nest adults living with their parents.

You gotta give SBS points for trying.
It will re-screen the factual series The Nest, which it aired only mid-year, where young adults live under the roof with their parents.
Sound familiar?
So who else can blame them for slating it at 7:30pm on a Tuesday night, directly before a fictional premise built around the same theme on another network? At least SBSÂ can say it got its to air first.
Of course Kath and Kim was a similar premise too. In the US it’s pitched with the slogan, “Apparently can go home again.”
The six part series is produced by Freehand Productions.
The Nest – This six-part reality series examines the phenomenon of Generation Y adults who have never left home, and the Baby Boomer parents who let them stay. Three families with adult children are challenged to find out how ready they are to live separately.

Yeah it was great though they rushed through the living together stories of the Young Adults too much. I’d love a follow up six months down the track particularly with Anjielka (sic)
The Nest was great. Another series would be better than a repeat though…
