Guy's Grocery Games

I really love the concept of this show, combining the culinary creativity of Chopped with the frantic mayhem of Supermarket Sweep to create a fun entertaining cooking show that showcases the chefs' resourcefulness in themed or limited scenarios. Guy's chubby golden retriever personality is a perfect fit for a tv show like this and should easily entertain anyone who likes cooking and/or game shows.

For anyone who's unfamiliar with Chopped or Supermarket Sweep, I'll lay out the concepts for both.

Chopped: A cooking show where chefs compete to see who's the best chef ever made. They're given a basket of ingredients, which almost always include something very obscure, and have to prepare a dish in each round using those ingredients and anything else in the kitchen before time runs out to wow the judges. If they don't make the cut, they get chopped.

Supermarket Sweep: A trivia game show from the 60s that involves contestants who win a trivia round having to race around a supermarket and fill their cart with as many items as possible within a given time limit.

Everyone one is just very laid back and there to have fun. The challenges are extremely difficult and original. I really do like this show

If you like watching chefs create food using stuff of the supermarket shelf, then you will like this show. With a host like Guy, it can get silly, funny, and crazy quickly. Good for the whole family. Only complaint I have is that my supermarket does not stock a quarter of the things found here!

This is a fun program to watch, but Hunter is so not ready for this much camera time. He lacks maturity and camera presence, and it appears he isn't comfortable. I'm sure there are many experienced chefs with extensive TV skills that would enjoy assisting Guy, and I'm always happy to see them when Guy invites them to co-host or take a major role. Unfortunately, Hunter doesn't seem to have this experience. Maybe in 10 years when he's been out there earning a reputation as a highly regarded chef, he might be able to do it. He should try to audition for Chopped or any of the other cooking competitions available. If he does well there, he might be value added to GGG.

Hunter seems like a nice kid but he is not cut out for Tv. Daddy hooked him up with a nice gig that he is way in over his head. Ruins the show. They need to go back to the old format.
