Christopher Kimball's Milk Street
Christopher Kimball's Milk Street (2017– )
1/10
No, just no. I tried.
29 November 2023
I am assuming Kimball got this show because he sued PBS and this was his settlement? The premise behind the show isn't terrible(he maybe should try producing only and not having to be in the limelight?) Kimball seems to be more a creepy late night host than a chef that I should be learning from. He was bad in ATK and Cook's Country(which btw got better after he left) but in those shows he was not really the star at all so he was drowned out by the great personalities. In Milk Street everyone is extremely passive, so it only makes his personality look worse because he simply has no one to balance him out.

There is one good thing about this show though! HE NO LONGER RUINS COOK'S COUNTRY AND ATK!

Cook's Country from America's Test Kitchen
Cook's Country from America's Test Kitchen (2008– )
10/10
Can't love this anymore! Wish they did 52 episodes a year!
27 October 2023
These are the greatest people on the planet! I love all the hosts and co-hosts. I love all the recipes, Truly fantastic, the straight forwardness about the ingredients is so great! It is great that you get a backstory on the food and the history. ATK and Cook's Country truly are gems.

I will continue to type about how great the show is since IMDB won't me post something without writing a true term paper.

Charisma from the hosts.

Beautiful set.

Clean prep.

Fun.

A great theme song.

Happy people.

History of the food.

Different backgrounds.

Delicious food that someone actually could feed their family.

Can I give this a negative score? What a horrible attitude!
27 September 2023
Unlike the Jazzy Vegetarian, who has charisma, Christina is downright vile. She talks down to people and tells you how unhealthy you are because you eat the most nutrient-dense food(animal proteins), even though she is out of shape. She does talk about her personal trainer, but thinking she needs a refund. She also seems to think if you undercook pasta it will magically not spike your glucose, that is debunked by any fitness guru who has actually worn a monitor. To top all of this off? Her food is nothing great nor visually appealing. For all of the great PBS shows there are, we are then given this. Yuck!

I cannot get enough!
20 September 2023
I actually had never seen Poirot until 2023. My better half had and said you "won't like it". (Even though I LOVE Murder, She Wrote and all of the good BBC shows over time!) However, PBS plays reruns on Saturdays and I watched Wasps' Nest, and I immediately ordered the whole collection! What an amazing show! So sharp and I swear I laugh so much watching this show. The humor is so witty, dry and hilarious! In earlier episodes it seemed I was better the who done it, but as the show progresses I am more stumped! I cannot express how excited I was to find this show. There is nothing else on tv but the BBC always delivers!

Watch it as satire!
19 September 2023
It will have you laughing if you do! I always crack up when "vegan" is labeled as "healthy", then you watch this. She has to put high-calorie maple syrup in everything to make it palatable. Then we have to hear about her "husband". I am assuming since he is married to her he somehow eats that dry food and says "mmm, so good". Nothing on the show looks appetizing and her dishes don't even match! Editing is an afterthought as you see her smear liquid and "milk shakes" over the glass when she makes them.

I don't even care if you are a vegan. You do you. Your lack of muscle tone is giving it away, but do not try and tell me a piece of tofu(with maple syrup) is BACON!

And did I mention the singing? Oh lord, as I said tune in and watch as you would an episode of Portlandia! Also could do a drinking game to it!

The Daytripper
The Daytripper (2009– )
10/10
Greatest show on TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
7 September 2023
In a fake World, full of fake influencers, fake movie stars, fake food and fake people. It is so refreshing to watch The Daytripper! It is real and uncut unlike "reality" tv. They actually go to small communities that built America and talk to REAL people.

Chet is a plethora of knowledge of history! He is whimsical. He is fun! I am not from Texas and truly don't even like most Texans but yet... I tune in every week on Create to watch reruns of Chet and the gang! He finds the most obscure places and history that I am waiting to win on Jeopardy with!

It is amazing how he goes EVERYWHERE in the State. From the coast, to the plains to the hills to the metros.

Now when I have to run to Texas, I can stop in towns that I used to pass by and eat at some of the real restaurants instead of some nasty chain!

The fact that this show has any bad reviews is a true testament of how happy people are!

Vaya Con Dios Amigo.

LOL, this is so bad-I watch it to make fun of it!
28 September 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Ok, this show wants to be a "country" Empire, but it starts when Empire was really bad in the last few seasons.

Even the characters try and be the same.

We have 3 kids One gay(of course she marries up and looks like that is ending well).

One uber-hot business exec(who btw did a homoerotic scene with the artist he was trying to sign a record deal with but I guess he is straight? You whiffed on that). (Trace and Susan didn't produce that FYI)

One with baggage and an annoying husband(like why is he British?) Oh and she is omniscient!

Don't worry foreshadowing is showing us there may be an extra child......

TIME HOPPING: JUST STOP, PLEASE. I assume writers are so bad that they write the story and then in middle are like "I want to add this, let's just time hop instead of develop a backstory!" You can do a backstory but stop telling me 3 months ago!

Also it seems anyone can just drive up to their house, I mean no security or what? Oh and they are like the country music superstar family but shockingly they are in Texas and not Nashville?

The Dad has anger problems and it seems like nobody cares.

And it seems there has been a murder and the body is buried like 15 deep in a hole in the woods but just think in minutes the body has been taken from this amazing grave(anyone ever tried to dig in Central dry Texas?) and now we are moving on to the next melodrama! Just think only 3 episodes in!

Can't wait to see how bad it gets next week.

One of the best game shows ever!!!!
16 August 2022
This show was truly fun and could stand the test of time if redone correctly(meaning a good host!). Can't believe it was only on 4 years! I love watching it on Buzzr! It was fun and interesting to see how some of the contestants aren't good memory portion but are good at the solving the puzzle portion! LOVE IT!

How did this show have so many good of talent and su c k so bad?????????????
11 January 2022
I ordered this mainly do to reviews! It is so bad! I cannot even tell you how bad. There is one good episode(Draft Day one.....) and that is it! There is so much talent! And it is not even used correctly. Sue Heck is in the first episode and even then she isn't used good.

I don't see why the ratings on here are good, this show is GOD-AWFUL, LIKE SERIOUSLY! Watch it ironically!

Love it and always will!
10 January 2022
Watched it with my Grandmas, had the SNES game and now I love it as always! Oh how amazing this show is and still fun as can be!

I actually am shocked they have improved the show so much with new twists etc! The toss ups are oh so fun, and love the different prizes. I DO MISS THE SHOWCASES! So trashy and 80's! Reminds me of The Goldbergs(s1-6, the others don't count).

Anyone who doesn't appreciate the simplicity and longevity of this powerhouse are truly clueless!

Could it be worse?
7 October 2021
The actors are probably talented, but I can't tell because the acting is nothing but OVER-ACTING!

The storyline can last longer than 10 seconds, before you jump to a new character.

The previews looked like it could be another lightning in a bottle show from FOX, the first few minutes were enough to tell you that wasn't happening.

I tried to do the 2nd episode as sometimes pilots have a way of not being the best. NO, it actually gets more convoluted!

Pull the plug soon!

A neat concept and an easy watch! Cracks me up when some of the bakers go totally off the rails! Like "oh yes, it is something nobody has heard of! Yes, clearly!'

Love it and love Joe!
