Comme des chefs: Jeu d'enfant en cuisine

First off, I love antoni. Huge fan of him from queer eye and he's equally great in this. But the concept/rules of this show are just unfair. The winner of each episode continues on and battles against 2 new people. But the champion now has a HUGE unfair advantage. They know the rules, what the judge likes, the tools in the kitchen, how to navigate the kitchen, etc... They also get more chances to win money vs someone who might eventually beat them/join in a later episode. So, while this was a good easy watching show it was also frustrating seeing someone have such an advantage every episode. If they make more of this they need to tweak the rules.

I mean just say that you don't care about the food and you just wanna give the win to the whitest trash dish out of the line up . The judges in some rounds made comments which were just because they had to cut . In an episode literally they shot down innovation saying it is too risky . Lmao. What is food without innovation and risk . The judging is a joke . Some cooking hacks were usefull , and that's all I got out of this .

On the bright side the participants were people who weren't great cooks to begin with and got a stage to challenge themselves . They challenges were intersting and some really interesting dishes came out of it given the time frame .

Watch it or skip it ?

A 100% skip .

I was so excited to see this show in my Netflix recommended. The Easy Bake oven was something I dreamed of having as a kid! I also thought it would be such a neat concept to see how different people adapt to and cook fabulous dishes in the easy bake oven.

The reveal in the final moments of the first episode left me disappointedd. They basically called it an upgraded easy bake. No honey, that's just an oven! I don't get why they would call it that. It's not even a baking show. It's a cooking show, so the title seems really bait-y.

I kind of agree with another reviewer that there is some favoritism going on.

The only redeeming quality is the main judge. He is nice, calm, caring, and funny. This is kind of rare these days. Many hosts on cooking/ baking shows are over-the-top and obnoxious, but I really like his energy!

I wouldn't really recommend this show, but if you got nothing to watch and don't want to really follow what's playing, then this is an okay show for background noise.

The worst cooking show I have ever watched, I do not recommend. Do results of the episodes are completely biased and the results are neither accurate nor fair. If the concept is a competition, the expectation is that competent and respectable judges would accurately provide valuable feedback. If this is not possible, then it should just be a cooking show and it should not be a competition. I could not even finish the show it was so bad. Netflix has to try harder to make quality content to not lose more subscribers, as it seems a lot of their shows these days are just variants of each other with little thought and effort put into it.

Hmmm. Well, while I like Antoni, his judging skills are very poor. He seemed to choose the pregnant contestants just because of that fact and maybe she might really need the money... This show overall is so so... Can I finish this season? I'm really not sure.

I absolutely love cooking shows because I love to cook and this one didn't make me feel excited at all. There were only three contestants (Dave, Aprille and Michael) who I would clap for and weirdly enough they added that 'extraness' that should've gotten them to another round but hey, I'm not surprised at all but guess who they chose lol...
