Home and away fans were upset about the premiere of the new season.
On Tuesday, the kidnapping story of Remi Carter and Eden Fowler unfolded in Summer Bay and kept audiences on the edge of their seats, but there was one detail that spoiled the experience.
Many fans took to a dedicated Facebook group for the show to criticize Channel 7 for the excessive number of commercials aired during the episode.
One person complained that they actually only watched “10 Minutes of Home and Away.”
In a thread inviting group members to discuss the episode's events, one fan sarcastically wrote, “Well there's not much to discuss unless we want to talk about the heavy amount of advertising.”

Many fans took to a dedicated Facebook group for the show to criticize Channel 7 for the excessive number of commercials aired during the episode. One person complained that they actually only watched “10 minutes of Home and Away.”
One Facebook user called the ads “bulls***,” while another said it was “the worst.”
“I counted 9 at the first break,” wrote another eagle-eyed home and away fan.
While another claimed they didn't mind the Aldi adverts, “at least these are usually funny.”
The Australian soap opera made a spectacular return to screens on Monday night as Cash organized a lightning-fast search party, a detail that was skewered by other eagle-eyed fans.
“I thought you had to wait 24 hours for a person to be reported missing.” “The search party got there pretty quickly lol,” said one viewer, while another added: “What absolute crap!”
Additionally, some fans voiced their opinions on other moments from the show that they found questionable.

“So Leah is still recovering from the trauma of the kidnapping, and now Eden has been kidnapped. 'Too many kidnappings in Summer Bay!' one fan complained.
“Why didn’t he notice the toilet paper was missing? How many roles did they have?” someone else asked.
“Why didn’t he notice the lamp was missing?” And isn’t that the first thing they ask you: “Is there anything else missing from the campsite?” another person attacked.
This comes after fans were stunned at last year's finale, where the kidnapping storyline began.

Since the episode aired, several Home and Away fans have dialed the number displayed and shared their discoveries.
“If you call the number you'll hear what Cash tells her in his voicemail that he left her,” one fan claimed.
“It's just weird being able to call 911,” said another, who said it was an outdated way of addressing the public.
“Mine said the number was disconnected!” claimed another person.
“It was busy when I called, so I'd say a lot of people tried haha,” another Summer Bay enthusiast joked.
“I called it like 10 times haha, soon I'll tell you to stop calling,” another excited viewer remarked.
