COOKING with a DUSTING of SQUID GAMES 😁
loganps16 April 2024
There are SO MANY cooking competition shows and I'm sure it's not easy trying to find a new angle. For me, this show has a FUN concept and great pacing! 👍 They don't waste much time before diving into the competition. I think they did a great job turning the tired cooking show concept into something fresh!

The Squid Games comparison comes from some of the aggressive eliminations. This is part of the excitement of this show and keeps things moving along at a great pace. They also did a solid job finding likable chefs to root for.

To be fair, I'm a pretty easy audience when it comes to competition reality shows, but this one was more fun to watch than many others.

Truly Horrible & Beyond Ridiculous
slider949918 April 2024
"24 in 24 Cooking Show" manages to achieve the impressive feat of taking something as universally beloved as food and turning it into a bland and uninspired spectacle. This culinary disaster of a show promises to showcase 24 meals in 24 hours, but instead delivers a parade of mediocrity that will leave even the most ardent food enthusiasts feeling underwhelmed and disappointed.

From the outset, it's clear that "24 in 24 Cooking Show" is more concerned with quantity than quality. The rushed pace of each segment leaves little room for culinary creativity or genuine cooking expertise to shine through. Instead, viewers are subjected to a whirlwind of half-baked recipes and haphazard cooking techniques that would make even the most amateur home cook cringe.

The hosts, with their forced smiles and scripted banter, only add to the overall sense of artificiality. Their attempts at humor and charm fall flat, leaving viewers longing for some semblance of authenticity amidst the sea of manufactured enthusiasm.

Furthermore, the lack of diversity in both the dishes and the cooking styles featured on the show is glaringly obvious. Instead of celebrating the rich tapestry of global cuisine, "24 in 24 Cooking Show" opts for a homogenized approach that feels uninspired and uninspiring.

Even the production values of the show leave much to be desired. Amateurish camera work, cheesy graphics, and a general lack of attention to detail further detract from what little enjoyment could be salvaged from this culinary train wreck.

In the end, "24 in 24 Cooking Show" is little more than a cheap imitation of what a cooking show should be. It's a soulless exercise in quantity over quality, offering little in the way of culinary inspiration or entertainment value. Save yourself the agony and opt for a more tasteful culinary experience elsewhere.

A lot of complaining

If you want to watch a show where the contestants or rather chefs complain about how tired they are constantly and maybe do a little cooking on the side then this is the show for you. It gets really tiresome, listening to these chefs constantly talk about how tired they are And how successful they are but really just how tired they are. It's a good concept, but they need to figure out how to edit this thing so that it's not so boring where I'm constantly fast forwarding to segments not wanted to hear what the chefs are even talking about because all they're talking about is how tired they are .

EHHHHHH.....

I THOUGHT I was going to like this show. It sounded like a great NEW idea, and it was. It's definitely not boring, but they just don't leave enough time for each segment for the chefs to really DO anything. I mean, even the best of the best can only do so much with nothing. It's hard enough working with the conditions that they are working with, but to then put unreasonable time limits on top of it just makes it chaotic and uninspiring. It just seems like they are making a bunch of messes. On top of the unreasonable time limits, you have the "hosts" interrupting them every few seconds asking stupid questions, as if they have a few extra seconds to spare to chat. Geez, just get out of their face! It seems like all the cooking competitions now do this. They have the "hosts" interrupt the competitors over and over again asking mundane, irrelevant questions, taking the focus away from the actual cooking and disrupting the competition. I wish they would just sit and be quiet until it's their turn.
