Making It Australia is a reality competition television series co-hosted by comedians Susie Youssef and Harley Breen and based on the American series of the same name.[1][2] The series premiered on Wednesday, 15 September 2021 on Network 10.[3]

The show features craftspeople skilled in different media competing to be named the "Master Maker" and win A$100,000.[4][1] Each week, competitors participate in two or three challenges – a "Faster Craft", a "Together Craft" and a "Master Craft." The winner of each challenge earns a patch. For the Faster Craft, makers have three hours to create an item. For the Together Craft, they a split into teams and work together to create a themed item. For the Master Craft, makers have eight hours to create a more elaborate themed collection. At the end of every episode, one person is sent home based on their performance in the Master Craft.[5]

Production

In October 2020, Network 10 announced that they had commissioned a local version of the show at their annual upfronts.[1] In March 2021, it was announced that Susie Youssef and Harley Breen would be co-hosting the series[2][6] and that it would be judged by production designer and art director Deborah Riley and paper engineer Benja Harney.[7]

Due to low viewership, the series was bumped from its primetime slot of Wednesday and Thursday nights and began airing on Saturday nights from its seventh episode.[8][9] At the Network 10 upfronts in October 2021, it was announced that the series had been cancelled.[10]
