Le curiose creazioni di Christine McConnell

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 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.

This is the show that so many of us have been waiting for. The people that are creepy and a tad weird. The people that go outside the box. No, this is not a cooking show. You people that scored this low don't get it. This is meant to inspire and entertain. I'm so happy to live in a world where a show like this exists. And I want that crazy Rose roadkill raccoon to hang with me in my kitchen.

Refreshingly unique and evokes childhood nostalgia. I'd have given it a higher rating if there had been more in-depth tutorials, more varied content (ie decor, sewing) and if that "racoon" wasn't so irritating.

It's basically Pee-Wee's Plyhouse with a bit of Addams Family and Martha Stewart. If you just watch it for what it is it's very pleasant. People who are looking for a Martha Stewart will find the other two things offputting. People who expect something macabre will find the other two things offputting. People expecting Pee-Wee will find the other things offputting. It's not any of these things, its own sick little treasure where vintage clothing meets Regretsy and a middle schooler who goths out Barbies. I love it and so does my 4 year old, but my daughter was Coraline for Halloween, her choice.
