The Chew

I just have say that I never laughed so hard when Michael was talking about serving coffee. You see I have worked at a Tim Horton's coffee shop here in Canada for 12 years. I could have told you that you would have to deal with the most pickiest people in the world. If you do not listen and do a person's coffee to THEIR specifications you will here about it.

Thanks for the laugh. Thanks for your show my Mom and I really enjoy it.

Daphne Oz is a waste. She doesn't know how to cook. Occasionally, someone will let her zest a lemon or chop some parsley. Otherwise, she just stands around and watches or sits and eats everything in sight. The other four people have something to offer but not her. They know how to cook and have professional culinary experience.

She is on other shows and there too, she doesn't have professional insight in judging contestants.

She is a fifth wheel and probably knows someone who got her the job.

My day revolves around watching the chew. I retired in 2017 and was exited I could watch it more. I cannot tell you how many recipes I have made from this show. Michael,Carla and Clinton have such a good rappor and are so genuine. If they don't like a recipe they'll tell you. It's hilarious. I've learned so many things as well. I'm so darn pissed they keep the same crappy shows and are getting rid of this one. I watch very little of ABC and it's getting to where I could do without it all together.

I will confess, I have watched All My Children before (but I wasn't a long time viewer or anything- I just appreciate the genre and think highly of it, despite the cultural stigma); I'd watch the soaps when I was home, sick from school, or on holiday. Frankly, my review of 'The Chew' doesn't really have much to do with the soaps, except to say that it is an utter shame that something so preciously multi-generational and meaningful in TV history- not to mention to countless fans- was replaced by something so insulting. I just feel insulted by 'The Chew'.

I don't understand how this show could ever captivate people? It certainly didn't captivate me. I watched the first episode with an open mind; it was fake and contrived and boring, to be honest. I can't imagine 'The Chew' ever lasting more than a year or two. I watched it a total of 3 times (and that was quite a task, not turning it off!), and I feel like I have seen enough for a lifetime. The premise of this show is meaningless and the show itself is lifeless. There are countless food channels, which I turn on occasionally, but these hosts are not 'stars' nor are they authority figures of any sort. This show is not an art form either. It's plain meaningless and hard to watch. Maybe this show is a way of passing the time by while saving money, but it certainly does not help me- as a viewer- 'pass the time by' nor does it entertain or inform. Don't waste your time; I already wasted too much of my own time giving 'The Chew' a chance.

This show wants to be something it is not. It wants to be a fun, energetic show containing various perspectives regarding approaches to cooking and food in general. It is actually a show with a bunch of "people" running around like their heads have been cut off. It appears the producers dose the hosts with uppers at the beginning of the show, so that in the end there is a mess of food and each person can barely speak due to exhaustion. There is nothing cohesive about this show. The hosts appear to compete with each other as they fight one another for the spotlight. There is never enough time to finish a recipe as evidenced by the throwing of food amid acknowledgements that "TIME IS RUNNING OUT"! Is there a bomb hidden somewhere? Who sets the clock for these segments? Jesus Christ this show needs to relax because it is painful and anxiety inducing - far from helpful in any capacity.
