Worst Cooks in America

I understand Worst Cooks in America is somewhat tongue-in-cheek, and some of the contestants can be (mildly) amusing. You can see some improvement over the weeks in cooking ability. But I started Worst Cooks in America -Celebrity Edition 2020. First of all it's questionable whether these people are celebrities. To refer to them as "stars" is insulting to people who actually deserve that title. And, sorry, but if these people aren't acting they must be the stupidest, most annoying contestants ever. They really feel they are special; they must be the only ones.

I've watched iWorst Cooks n the past and enjoyed it. Granted, there were a few whiners, but most legitimately wanted to learn and improve their cooking skills. This season, most of them are just whiney crybabies. They'd rather display their silly antics and make excuses for their mistakes than learn anything. And they blame the chefs instead of accepting their valuable advice and constructive criticism to improve their cooking skills. Maybe that's what some viewers want, but I actually have learned things and gotten recipes in the past. Until there are more actual learners, I will not be watching this program.

I remember the first few season, my favorite were with Bobby Flay. They were helping people, giving out tips, and it was fun to watch. I just started watching a later season (with BF) and now there's sound effects, voice overs, and other stupid stuff that's unnecessary. The show has lost its appeal and now it's entertainment instead of learning.

I'm one of those people who has the tv on all day. I like to find a show and just let it run endlessly.

And this one WAS great. Watching people go from being CONVINCED that they just absolutely could not cook to being able to hear honest feedback, take it in, and make a change was really extraordinary to watch.

Until season 23. The games became absurd, as did the contestants. The amount of screaming and carrying on makes the show unwatchable. And if you watch season 23 (which featured pairs of contestants, who knew each other) the loudest most obnoxious people are the ones that make it to the finale. Both of them. (as a result, I did not watch the finale.)

And then they come back, again, and again. I don't know why they're called "audience favorites" (Season 25, episode 9) because if you look at the individual show ratings, you'll see that this did not do anything for the show.

Sad. Because, even though I can cook, I actually learned a lot watching this. But I am done.

Ok I have always enjoyed this show. But this season has me wondering two things. First why can't Tyler Florence stop harassing his team with endless directions and tossing out stupid facts. Second are the celebrities this season as stupid as they seen do they live in caves simple things seem to elude them. I'm not college educated but I know more than most of them. I'm a big fan of Ann Burrell she seems to be the best part of the show at this point.
