Chaud dedans!

I honestly loved the cooking and it gave me several dishes I want to try out myself.

The rest was utter trash. Jeana is quite possibly the worst human on the planet, She introduces her self like she's super friendly, team player, and that whole intro was completely fake.

She lies, pits other cooks against each other, and is an all around #itch.

The finale as terrible. The winner, was definitely not the "winner", it was entirely based on who was friends with who.

Trash TV at its finest. FU Netflix, you suck again. More and more of your shows are like this senseless garbage. If there is a season 2, fire the writers and start from scratch.

So much work, talent, control, planing, punctuality, integrity and innovation - for nothing. The winner is a likable guy, and that's it. Next time they don't have to cook at all, they can just sit around and tell eachother how badly they need the money, because obviously that's all that it takes to win. Occasional crying is also a plus, if you are a man.

I liked most of the candidates, but few of them were just so much better cooks then the rest, still, it didn't matter, in the end it all comes down to who they like more as a person. I just don't understand the concept, and it's a shame, it had potential.

The only kind of reality TV I tend to watch are the creative ones - I'm very partial to cooking shows, so when a new one is released, I have to watch it.

The premise of this appealed to me - eleven chefs in one house, and having to judge themselves, rather than having any kind of guest judge.

The reality, however, wasn't so appealing. This is just like Big Brother but with cooking instead of canoodling. But apparently the food is 'sexy', food should not be 'sexy'. It should be enticing, appealing, delicious, etc.

If you want to watch a group of talented chefs being judged fairly on their food, this is not for you. If you want to watch a group of talented chefs being judged on their friendships, rather than talent, then this is for you.

Jeana showed herself as a lying snake, not a sportsman. Apparently she wasn't confident in her cooking ability so she showed her true colors in using what she considers "strategy" to knock off as many of the other cooks as she could..... out and out lying at one point. There were a couple others who were right behind her in churlishness but who cares at this point. I've watched many cooking/baking shows and they were fun and collegial to each other. This was an out and out train wreck on so many levels and i won't watch a second season. I prefer well made shows that celebrate, rather than denigrate.

This show is somewhere between a drama and a cooking show. The lack of of a show host and external judges felt more like cost cutting than creative plot writing. The production quality is high, but the sets and locations could have been more imaginative. This new take on a culinary competition was somewhat refreshing from an entertainment perspective and I enjoyed watching them cook delicious food.. But I felt the whole premise of the competition left too much room for foul play which led to talented chefs leaving early in the competition. This show seems more focused on backstabbing and personal alliances than determining the best chef but in the end it turned out to be pretty enjoyable. I think if they get a bigger budget in future seasons improve on a few things it could be a great show.
