The Kitchen

Sunny needs a broader vocabulary. For someone who supposedly so worldly she doesn't act it on the show. She has to say "you know what I mean" at least five times a show..... Get it out of your vocabulary and you'll sound intelligent. Hasn't any producer corrected her on this? I'm to the point when I know her segment is coming on I fast forward through it....ya know what I mean?! I love the other hosts!

I enjoy the show. I enjoy the interaction between the hosts. I think the recipes are really geared toward the home cook. I think the show is good for getting people to want to cook, by giving fairly simple and doable recipes.

I enjoy seeing Zacharian making the drinks at the end of each show. Great ideas for something different for get togethers.

I do not like how Sunny Anderson is constantly filling her face on the show. She will reach over and grab if it is not within arms reach. If someone asks who would like to try this, she is usually the first to voice up and pouts if given to another person. It's annoying.

I watch or record this every Saturday, so obviously I like it. But with Marcela gone and only 4 left, the things that bug me about Sunny and Katie Lee are magnified. Sunny is awful, although lately she seems a wee bit toned down. But it's still too much, too loud, she's a food grabber, and she and talks/chews at the same time. Ugh.

Katie Lee drives me nuts, although I like her recipes a lot. It's the way she talks and rolls her r's ("very frrrrrresh and flavorrrrrrful"). Also, she's very pretty, but seems to enjoy wearing old bedspreads. That sounded a bit petty, but c'mon.

The guys are cool. They're my fave part.

Watching a repeat of the Kitchen about salads. Sunny is pathetic! So loud and obnoxious. Today she continues to comment on every segment while grabbing and eating. In a school atmosphere she tries repeatedly to get all the attention from holding a oversized pencil and waving around to once again butting in while hosts are trying to cook with her silly questions "can I have a bathroom pass" etc. - anything to draw attention to her. She is so immature and insecure! If you are going to continue to employ her, please give her a show of her own so that the rest of us DO NOT have to watch!!! Maybe a "glow in the dark" show where her eye shadow and nail polish will provide all the lighting needed.

I enjoy this show with the exception of Marcela. I find her obsession with Mexican food and her constant references to Fausto annoying. She also comes across as being uptight, smug and arrogant. I record the show so that I can fast forward through her sections.

I enjoy all of the other hosts. Jeff Mauro is hilarious and I am so glad he still has a spot on Food Network. Unlike many cooking shows, there are often recipes demonstrated that I want to try. The variety of cooking techniques is also appreciated - grilling, baking, roasting, etc. The four good hosts come across as genuine and fun, and their chemistry seems real.
