This show used to get its humor from the contestants' lack of cooking skills and knowledge. In recent years it has descended into a slapstick comedy that resorts to physical comedy challenges that are demeaning to the contestants. Even the dignified Cliff Crooks can't rescue this show.

Did not enjoy , hard to watch Celebrities if you want to call them that...(Tonya Harding?? ). Seemed most were busy acting for camera than actually cooking. Enjoyed other season so maybe this was due to the lacklustre quality of contestants.

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.

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.

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.

While this series is not yet complete, I have watched all the episodes and enjoyed them very much. I hate to admit it, but I think I liked the shows simply because unlike other Food Network shows, this one made me feel like a master chef in comparison! Heck, most 7 year-olds would feel superior to the people chosen for this odd competition! Plus, it's sad to admit, but I liked laughing at the food that some of them created--it was so scary it was almost surreal!

In episode one, two big-time chefs recruit teams for each other that are made up of some of the worst cooks you could imagine. Unlike the very closely controlled format of later shows, the potential team members were invited to bring in ANYTHING and have the chefs evaluate their appropriateness for the show. What they did not know is that the ones chosen were NOT those who made acceptable dishes, but those who made the most horrible food--and soe dmishes were amazingly gross and funny. The biggest problem with most of these potential competitors appears to be confidence--they are, in most cases, just too afraid of cooking and it shows in the very scary 'things' they concoct. On the other hand, a few were simply clueless.

In subsequent episodes, the two teams are given very specific tasks and the two chefs demonstrate a variety of techniques and the participants try to replicate them as best they can. And, each episode the teams lose a member--the one who does poorest.

Overall, a bizarre sort of show but one that is oddly addictive--and, in a sick way, kind of funny. It's fun to watch and very different from the usual fare on this channel. I'll be most likely updating this review after the series concludes.

There are a lot of cooking shows that got me hooked. This one is somewhat entertaining, but I can't say I'll binge watch all 20 seasons. I watched season 20, 19 and it was enough for me. While it is true that it is called the Worst Cooks in America, by the end of the season the last two competitors can cook better than the first time they attempted doing so during the show. You do see how the competitors evolve and you find out some things about food or cooking, but I can't say you'll become wiser after this show. The information is quite basic and sprinkled throughout the show in a way that cannot provide a decent structure of actually learning from it.

I loved watching these people who could not cook.. loved watching them trying to read a recipe..work a piece of equipment. Now it's a frogging game show. I feel this show has gone so far from what was enjoyable to watch that I am no longer able to watch it. I have removed it from my DVR.

Shame on the network for taking a show that was a teaching albeit funny experience and taking down to worse than the find show.

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've watched 2 episodes of Season 23, after sitting out a few seasons. No more. Chefs require contestants who don't know a turnip from a tilapia to debone a chicken, work quickly, present a practically perfect meal, etc. It's no longer learning about nutrition, basic cooking skills, methodology, food safety. Okay, humor does lighten the goings-on, but this is just too nonsensical for me.

The latest season of Worst Cooks in America is great except for the extreme overuse of graphics and circus music. Please just let the show and contestants speak for themselves!!!! It's gotten annoying to the point where I actually dread watching. Like canned laughter, it's too cheesy and totally distracts from the show. Every once in a while is ok, but the first episode with Michael Symon had graphics etc literally every minute or more. The contestants are entertaining enough. The graphics etc are worse than the cooking.

Love it... it is really funny and informative.........................................................

I love this show. It's good to see the growth and development of most horrible cooks. I like the different personalities that either help or hinder them from becoming better. I love it when the chefs show the cooks "how to" so I can also learn although that does not occur too often or sometimes with enough detail for me to learn the lesson completely. I love the "aside" pieces where the wannabe chefs speak to the camera and the entertaining embellishments such as sound effects or camera effects. It's a fun show with great hosts.

This used to be a good show. It was interesting to see contestants replicate Anne's and Tylers dishes. Now (which I believe is due to the contestant's amateur comedy shtick's) the contestants are given food and just told to make what they want. With all the stupid cut scenes and faked kitchen disasters there seems to be no time for cooking instructions by Anne and Tyler. This show is being ruined by to much attempted comedy and not enough cooking. The contestants come off as people interested to acting careers not just regular folks who want to learn how to cook. Which makes the show kind of phony from the getgo.

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.

This series of programs highlights how really difficult it is to be a competent cook and is mildly educational, but it truly encapsulates the sad side of all reality shows. The competitors may not be the very worst cooks in this country, but they are true novices and the viewer learns more about how not to cook than about techniques that can be helpful in the ordinary home kitchen. Furthermore, there is hyped tension between the chef-instructors and among the competitors that is not as dramatic as on other reality shows, but that makes the viewer uncomfortable and is not entertaining.

One may empathize with the pitiful people that are being humiliated, but there is nothing satisfying in their performances to offset the depression gathering over the weeks. These are like simple children who have been denied a mother's example for their whole lives -- not just in the kitchen, but in life. The chefs are somewhat interesting; but at the end of each hour, the viewer feels cheated. The idea may have seemed good on the planning board; but in reality, it is a true dud!

I am a Food Network junky. I love to learn and try new recipes, and master old ones. I started watching Worst Cooks in America with my teenage daughters seemingly just for the comedy aspect of the show but it didnt take long for us to get hooked. I love the competion between the two teams, I truly enjoy watching the contestants (however experienced or inexperienced they are upon arrival to bootcamp) grow in the kitchen and the slapstick comedy as some other reviewers have called it actually really adds some much needed entertainment. Anyone that reviews it as over the top or too rehearsed should maybe just tune in to Chopped or something similiar. Chef Anne is truly a force in the kitchen and the additional hosts (Chef Bobby, Florance, Irvine and also Rachel Ray are all great mentors. I have implemented several dishes from all of them, soley from watching this show. Want to laugh, learn and even get teared up, then tune in.

I used to love this show. There was people on that looked genuinely interested in learning how to cook. Yeah there seems to be less of those. It's more about prop comedy and people like drag queens they just want to be on TV and have no real interest in cooking.
