Other than the non-cooking BS, I enjoy the show and the creativity of the contestants.

Given that, I have no clue how the contestants are making many of their dishes (and shopping) within the required time frame. Shopping then frying chicken (as an example) and making other sides in 20/30 minutes? Some of the things they are cooking takes me much longer to be done (as in not raw).

I watch very little of it anymore. I watch exactly zero game shows. It’s a joke.

1990's FoodNetwork and HGTV and Biography,etc..totally superior to their current formats.

Since 2005-2010ish on forward society is going full-tilt idiocracy. Attention spans of gnats.

The Ritalin & Woke Generations have commandeered the control panel board.
