Celebrity Cooking? (shaking head)
Not sure if this is the proper place but I couldn't bear this alone. The tube is on in the background and I JUST DON'T GET IT!! Is it that some of them read (like recipes)?

3. Actually, I was working -
at least I was until I heard the commentator questioning the celeb's ability to find her frying pan. I'm not a TV watcher and with shows like this I can't imagine I ever will be.

9. David Bianculli said it best
Letting people who can't taste the final product decide who wins is an unusual way to settle a cooking contest.

That would be like letting deaf people decide who wins American Idol.

11. I think that's precisely how Idol works
Maybe it's an inclusivity thing

5. I think they're going overboard on the "celeb reality" tv
And reality tv in general. It is well past its prime.

6. Unless it's about celebs using their "status"
to promote something worthwhile I don't want to hear it.

10. I only saw the previews but wanted to see that one guy bust his arse.
Alas, I forgot to watch. Never heard of most of those people, so it seems they were scraping the mixing bowl for "celebs".
