The show pales in comparison to the original. The chefs at times are practically impossible to understand and other times are pretentious and annoying. I really feel badly for the competitors. I even advanced through episodes to see if it got any better further into the series and unfortunately it did not. The poor joke writing and awkward delivery come off as insults rather than playful levity or fun banter. The hosts don't even seem to have a connection with each other. The set up of the show is fine and it seems there was care in choosing competitors that were very watchable and at a knowledge level of professional... it's a shame I couldn't get through the annoying parts to actually watch it.
