Chopped Next Gen

What's the point of this show? The original "Chopped" has chefs of all ages, young included. You knew the host and the judges are more than qualified to be reviewing the chef's submissions. This is just "trying too hard" to be "cool" and comes across disingenuous. The host is beyond annoying, the judges are questionable. I don't see the point of this, there's nothing new here, there's nothing compelling or interesting. It is simply pushing this out for some pandering to a "new audience", but sorry, I don't think they'll get the audience they want this way. The pandering is too obvious, too cheap.
