Viewers have called for The Block to be axed after the Channel Nine show reached its dramatic conclusion on Sunday.
Despite all five homes going under the hammer, the nerve-wracking auction day only saw three homes sell to successful bidders.
And now fans are urging Channel Nine to axe the renovation show after the disastrous auction result.
‘This is hilarious. After begging and begging, they got something. Finally!! Cancel the show. The Block lost the plot,’ one person wrote on X.
‘Perhaps this is the season where The Block ends. These auctions feels forced,’ one added.
‘It’s good we are seeing the end of #TheBlock as we know it. Stop these over capped monstrosities and turn it back to being a reno show at affordable levels,’ another said.

‘Watching the auctions failing and the demise of The Block in real time #theblockau,’ one viewer commented.
‘Every year I feel like it gets worse and worse with these auctions. If it wasn’t for Danny and Adrian, this show would’ve ended years ago, surely?’ another wrote.
Another agreed: ‘How about just cancel the next season of the #TheBlock? Worst show in the f**king world should’ve been axed years ago!’
‘Greedy Channel 9 kills the grand final of the show. Boring and anticlimax. Wouldn’t be bothered watching again. #TheBlock,’ one viewer added.
Despite concerns that the houses were priced way above the median for the area, the nerve-wracking auction day saw three of the five homes sell to successful bidders.
In a shock result, Western Australian couple Britt and Taz took out the top sale of the day – offloading their stylish House 3 for an impressive $3.41 million.
With a reserve of $2.99 million, the fan favourites walked away $420,000 richer – adding to that, a $100,000 bonus prize, netting them a total $520,000.
But it all went downhill from there.

Serial Block bidder Adrian Portelli was absent from proceedings, with the winning bid coming from an anonymous phone bidder, after a battle with Melbourne rich lister and IT entrepreneur, Danny Wallis.
Fellow renovators Robby and Mat’s South Australian property fetched $3.099million, netting the best mates a meagre $109,999 profit.
The lads were bitterly disappointed with the winning amount, which they will have to split between them.
Meanwhile, Sonny and Alicia sold their home for $3.06 million – $120,000 above their $2.94 million reserve.
Despite the small yield, the couple were happy with the result.
But not everyone walked away with a sale, as both Emma and Ben, and Han and Can, failed to attract enough interest to get their properties over the line.
In heartbreaking scenes, Emma and Ben’s home was passed in after bidding stalled at their $2.99million reserve – and even a $3.10 million bid failed to help it generate interest.
Han and Can’s home also failed to sell, the ladies left facing the crushing reality that they were walking away from the show without having made a penny.
