Lachlan Murdoch, the Channel Ten boss, has not yet confirmed the 2012 return of The Renovators series after its ratings failure.
He has noted some of the sponsors of the $25 million series were keen for its return, “with reset expectations”.
“If we bring it back it will be in a different format and with different expectations,” Murdoch says.
Ratings for Channel Ten's The Renovators did not come close to the similar Channel 9 show The Block.
The ratings of The Renovators finale topped 1.26 million across the five cities, its best result since its 1.25 million August debut.
Some 56% of the $725,000 average nightly audience over the past three months were women.
The series was created by the television production house Shine Australia. The Renovators finale was October 12.
