I'm not surprised that Restaurant Revolution has been a complete ratings failure.
The host is bland; the judging team is little better, although it is a little fun being scared of the Serious Asian Woman; and as the teams competing never spend much time together in the same spot, you just don't get the interest of face to face snide comments like you get in My Kitchen Rules.
As for "Hotplates": I've seen only 15 minutes, but it was during that time exactly identical in format to MKR. Oh alright, there was one difference: the teams wrote their scores on a piece of paper, as well as saying it out loud. It's a shameless rip off, as far as I can see, but with charmless hosts and more intensely annoying contestants than MKR can manage to find. It seems to me it should be liable for some form of breach of intellectual property....
