Le curiose creazioni di Christine McConnell

I tuned into this yesterday because I couldn't find anything else that might pass half an hour or so. I ended up watching the entire season. Part cookery and arts and crafts, part soap opera and part comedy, it's like Sesame Street as directed by Tim Burton. The puppet characters are very engaging, the humour is as dark as some of the chocolate Christine uses in her creations that competitors in Bake Off can only dream (have nightmares) of, the comedy very offbeat. Hugely enjoyable.

When I first saw this, I thought what in the hell!? But after about two episodes I couldn't stop watching, mainly not for the recipes but the camaraderie of the puppets. They are the best. Reminds me of my childhood.

But if you're a diehard recipe/foodie that wants a traditional cooking show. THIS IS NOT IT!

WATCH IF YOU LIKE: The Addams Family, Elvira, And The Munsters. (Anything with a darker vibe)

Christine also reminds me of Kat Von D, with her 50's style vibes.

I loved this. It is really clever, the characters are fun. Christine's creations (baked, sewn, etc) are amazing. She explains what she does quite well. The sets are wild and as fun as the action. It absolutely tickled my twisted funny bone.

I am bummed that there are only 6 episodes. That is not enough! I certainly hope there will be more in the future!.

I will add this warning though: This is NOT meant for little kids. It has some quips, dialog and situations that you might very well not to want to explain. Some kids might find some of the scenes scary as well.

I started watching the show and was kinda confused but I couldn't stop watching. Then I introduced my husband and son to the show and we are all so intrigued. No I can't see myself making some of these creations but I do love watching. I love her deadpan, dry sense of humor, and the puppets are super quarkey (definitely not for a younger audience)

For those that have written negative reviews about this show, go watch Martha or listen to the incessant ranting of Ramsey and leave the fun to us. Loved every minute of this show - adult friendly humor mixed with the fun of being a kid, hosted by a total babe with a deliciously fun dark side. So glad this wasn't just another boring cooking show. PLEASE give us more of this fun loving series (and feel free to make it longer)
