Reproduction shows not so good

Post by albertajune »

I enjoyed the Master Chef and Bake Off but I think that we are being shown too many cooking and food programs now. I don't like the new Mary Berry show which is about best family cooks. I think it is riding on the back of her other successful shows. When I see a new one being advertised my first thought is "not another one" So many programs about food. I am including the programs on freeview as I sometimes turn to these when only rubbish on the ordinary 5 channels which is often.

The same goes for who wants to be a millionaire. In my opinion, not so good as the original. As it is on for a whole week, maybe it will be the end of it when finished. As they say a one off.

I watched that new Mary Berry programme last night as I'd heard good reviews but to be honest I found it very slow and like you say just trying to imitate the Bake off. Don't think I'll bother again :?

I didn't bother watching. I'll stick with Masterchef though even that can become a bit too much - first there's Masterchef, then Masterchef Professionals followed by Masterchef Celebrity. I do like the Celebrity one as sometimes it can be quite lighthearted and not taken as seriously, depending who they have as their guests.

Especially when it is arranged on the plate with gloveless fingers. Too much touching.
