Secret Chef

I love cooking shows - Top Chef, Master Chef, etc., which is why I thought I'd like this. I liked most of it. Animated "Chefy" almost made me quit this show - so annoying & silly. I liked the cooking challenges but found the "Reviews" section confusing & too fast to fully comprehend. I also didn't see the point of everyone having an Alias - Chef Donut, Chef Arugula, etc.. The White Elephant challenge was probably the best.... who knew it was possible to cook with a clothing steamer or iron?

If there's a Season 2: get rid of animated "Chefy", and still give everyone a printout of the reviews - all without aliases or names.

This show is good. I liked the concept. Was enjoying the chefs and challenges. I could only sit thru 2 episodes though. They use a CGI/AI host that gets irritating quickly. Definitely an AI wrote this because the jokes are horrible. Also the voice is high pitched I think it's that sound only dogs can hear. I couldn't take another minute of the cheffy host. If you're looking for a cooking show there are much better shows out there. If you do decide to watch you will probably need to mute the sound during the cheffy segments. I hope AI isn't the way tv is going because I won't watch. And no I'm not in the industry.

Is dang annoying. And after seeing a picture of the actress behind the voice (I know it's altered a bit), I'm wondering why they didn't just have her there in person. Please. Do it for season 2 if there is one.

The premise of the show is pretty good. Some chefs anonymously prepare food for each other then get rated on it.

I will also say, because I have 241 characters left, that I didn't like the elimination on episode one. At least one person gets unfairly eliminated in my opinion. I don't want to spoil it, 82 characters left, but unfair it was. 42.

So in conclusion, this is a show that is good. Fin.

I really enjoyed this show, and I've watched a lot of cooking shows over the years. I thought the addition of "Cheffy" was brilliant - comes across as almost psychopathic at times, and I loved it. There was a bit of a post-apocalyptic feel to it somehow, and I thought there were a lot of unique qualities that kept me guessing throughout.

I really hope there's another series because it was refreshing to watch and I binged the whole thing in two days.

Only thing I'd like to add is I'd love to see more plant-based cooking in these shows, because there could be so much creativity potential there and I think it would help keep that edge.

They added so many twists and turns that don't make any sense. Some of the contestants are not that competent and I'm referring here to the ones calling themselves "social media chefs". They put them to judge other contestant dishes while they're not even competent enough to do so? They don't even know popular foods from other countries that the real chefs made so when they were judging it they're like "I don't understand blabla feels like need more seasoning yada yada". One of the social media chefs even pronounced "karaage" as "karaaajeee" like lol seriously. And they're in this show looking for a talented cook? The whole show is ridiculous. Just skip it. I watched it first cause I read that it's made by the same people who made nailed it. I thought it's gonna be good but now I can see that they're just putting this show not to really make a competition between real talented cooks but just for fun or something. How disappointing. I feel sorry for the real chefs in this show cause they just wasted their time and talent there. At least if u gonna make the contestants judge the other contestants foods make them competent enough to do so!
