The Urban Vegetarian (2017)
No recipes and many of the dishes make no sense
Basically, this is a show where you are expected to watch a millennial look sexy while she cooks and eats. None of the dishes give any measurements for ingredients. None.
Also, there are some real head scratchers. "You won't even miss Alfredo sauce" for a sauce she makes using Parmesan cheese. Alfredo sauce is already vegetarian. The only advantage to using cashews for the base would be to make it vegan/dairy free, but then she adds cheese to it. Why?
Brownies that substitute almond milk for regular milk, but still contain eggs. What's the point. Brownies, too, are just regularly vegetarian. What's the point of the almond milk? How much cocoa powder? How much baking powder? How much oat flour? Who knows? She never tells you.
Then there's an annoying song that plays continually through the show.
It's a good show if you just want to watch someone going orgasmic over her own cooking, but not if you're wanting any information or vegetarian recipes.
Harvest Moon (2015)
Cute feel-good fluff
The plot pretty much follows a Hallmark formula, but it's great for just relaxing under a throw on a weekend afternoon. No violence, no crude language.
The one thing that simply grated on me in this film, unlike most Hallmark films that are pretty well cast, is they have an actress who appears to be 12-14 years old playing a part that is written for a much younger actor. They young actress actually has to say lines like, "my mommy's in heaven" while rushing into her daddy's arms because she's shy of the visitor in the house. The actress is good, but the script should have been reworked to make it appropriate for her age.
