If I have to hear that It's Season Ten!!! one more time I'm going to stop watching. So??? Why exactly should home chefs be better now than they were two or six years ago? It's not like it's the same people. And I'm not convinced they're even as good - I see a whole lot more pre-measuring and pre-scripting and I have to wonder if any of the competitors knew 1/10 of the prep necessary before they were taught, five minutes before the cameras rolled. If you want to see impressive food prep and humorous, civil competition with an English accent, check out The Great British Baking Show.
Every year, I like the show's judges even less. Aaron, get a thesaurus. Joe, pay attention. And Gordon? "Oh deah oh deah oh deah". You may think it's less disturbing for us than you screaming obscenities and insults at people who are, for pete's sake, just making food, but it makes you sound like someone's hyper-anxious and slightly senile grandmother. Mrs. Doubtfire does beef wellington. Oh deah.
