MasterChef Canada

It's pretty obvious with the most recent elimination that they are eliminating the women.

Sadly if last weeks, weakest dish had been one of the women, and not Chris, they would have eliminated her.

This week they did just that, Mai is too strong a cook and competitor. They can't let her go to the finally against one of the remaining boys.

Oh, wait, you say, there is Thea. Only Thea falls apart second guessing herself along with her lack of time management. No, this is more about ensuring a boy wins then good cooking and tasty food.

Interesting and gripping at times Predictable at times Didn't understand how an amateur cook like Eric could beat out a professional like Marita in season1-she was the clear forerunner and consumate pro Maybe Alvin had something to do with it?

How cheesey can you get. And how gross can you be. Let's see how much food I can cram in my mouth!! And don't get me started on the product placement!

It's no MasterChef USA, but I do like the authenticity and warmth from both Claudio Aprile and Michael Bonacini, but Alvin Leung is just plain annoying with his arrogant and cocky over-the-top attitude (maybe trying to be like Ramsay? not even close), and makes me lose my appetite when he samples the home-cook's food. He needs to learn some eating etiquette, and not stuff his mouth like a starving monkey smh. The show really needs to replace him. It's an 8/10, but would be 10/10 if it wasn't for 'Annoying Alvin'

love masterchef, especially UK, UK professionals, NZ and Australia. US is OK, but agree that Ramsay has become unauthentic. just watch his old UK Kitchen nightmares, totally different person. but this.. is not watchable.. the Canadian version seems to be choosing their candidates based on looks, pink hair and tattoos and always wearing a hat. very big brother all of it. the drama of the judges, especially Mr Leung comes across very forced. and then, the very blatant product placements, with Kraft products that are definitely fresh local produce. it is so obvious and makes me NOT want to buy these products.

I am actually cringing sometimes. Please, please, improve.
