James May: Oh Cook!

Most people unfamilar with James May could regard this show as too laid back and possibly lacking all the flair of other cooking shows. That's kind-of the point of this show, however, because James isn't a professional cook. Instead, we're seeing his learning process. All the while he's including history and interesting facts with all of the very practical advice that most other cooking shows skim over. I watch alot of cooking shows and this is the best of them. Each episode has a specific theme. It does a great job of focusing on the points that make you a better cook, leaving the bunch of cooking fluff of other shows aside.

Really do wish that you guys would just allow James and Nikki to co host rather than kicking Nikki out of the kitchen. Nikki and James just work together like pie and peas would love to see Nikki and James both at the Forefront of the show as co-hosts as the charisma between the two is second to none

James may brings his usual charm and humour to a cookery show like no other. Funny and quirky will hope for a season 2

This series is so funny if you are bored and want to watch something to pass time I would highly recommend this it's quite funny and definitely should be a second season.

I can't wait for the next season. I've never found myself chuckling or bursting out loud laughing so much during any other cooking show. The mishaps were hysterical and I loved that the film crew were part of the show. James's sense of humor, the gadgets, and Niki make the show endearing, more than a straightforward cooking show. I felt included in the kitchen and had a glass or two right along with them. While a lot of the "out of the can"recipes were so-so, I loved James's pride in his first cake, the cheesy cauliflower, the Spotted Dick and many others. I want to try his smoked fish and rice breakfast dish for sure. Only, don't keep shoving Niki back in the closet. That was a little cringy.
