Blown Away: Christmas (TV Series) Oh Christmas Tree (2021) User Reviews

Disagree with the judges

[rebecka-kathryn · 6/10 · 21 November 2021]

Love this show but REALLY disliked the winning piece this time. I don't see it at all.. felt like they took creativity over substance but took that concept waaaag too far. It wasn't holiday themed at all!

Oh Christmas tree

[Calicodreamin · 7/10 · 20 November 2021]

Fun concept for a challenge and all three competitors had their own interesting takes. The winner was well deserved and unfortunately so was the person sent home.

Why?

After watching this episode I could not carry on, winner showed no skill and most importantly no ornaments. Letters , I think I could do that on my first day. Do not take me wrong , previous challenge showed she can do nice things , but this episode proved to me that I am wasting my time , because of subjective illogical judging, it is almost like on purpose just to stir a reaction.

Poor Elimination Decision

Cat should have been eliminated. Contestants were judged on design, concept, technical skill, and overall presentation. Bobby specifically says for the design he wants to see a story, not a bunch of random pretty pieces, and he wants them to all mean something. Cat's Christmas tree topper is the only one that does not relate to the rest of her tree. Her tree references the German tradition of hiding a pickle in the tree, and the sun topper does not relate to that at all. The pickle ornament is the only piece that tells a story. The rest is all just pretty ornaments used as filler. They do not add to the story in any way, unlike Nao and Alexander's pieces in which every single ornament, including the topper, has a meaning and adds to the overall story. Cat receives critism on her choice of colour, as does Nao, as well as her poor display decision, as does Alexander, but the use of ornaments simply as filler, and lack of connection from the tree topper to the overall story deserves an elimination.

Judges are still wrong

I am only writing this because I've seen this episode twice. The first time was annoying, the second time made me mad enough to write this. I hate to bash talented people but those letters she made this time around were awful. Globs of amateur looking glass with zero style. The colors had nothing to do with Christmas at all. Neither did the message. And the lips. The entire project was as far from Christmas as possible. This was not just outside the box, it wasn't even within a mile of the box. Then the one judge says the other girl should not have made candy canes!???? Oh well. I've blown glass and know how hard it is. I still watch and like the show.
