The Wife Swap Australia Teaser Is Here & Let’s Hope We Get Our Very Own Chicken Nugget Kid

Back before Keeping Up With The Kardashians was literally all we cared about and The Bachelor was handing out roses to willing applicants, there was a batshit reality show called Wife Swap.

The title is literally the entire premise of the show. A strict mother would swap places with a laidback mother and chaos would ensue.

I remember being obsessed with the US version as a kid, it started airing in 2004, and watching in awe as the families switched matriarchs to hilarious results.

Remember Curtis? The kid who was obsessed with bacon and chicken nuggets? He became a viral internet sensation before viral internet sensations were even a thing.

Here’s a clip, just to refresh your mem:

Then in 2012, an Australian rendition was created. Wife Swap Australia ran for a single season of ten episodes on Lifestyle You from 9 January 2012, before being axed.

But guess what? Like all laid to rest shows, it’s been rebooted by Seven and the first teaser is here.

While most rebooted shows look totally different, or at least updated, from the OG, this one literally looks like it was plucked right out of 2004.

Have a go at the teaser below:

Wife Swap Australia premieres 8.30pm Thursday, 11 February on Channel 7.
