In response to "no but I am watching Top Chefs Just Desserts and I love it - I had a " chopped" marathon this weekend - Love that show" by Epiphany

- I like that part - the quick-thinking and creativity can be terrific. it's just the overall tone that doesn't sit well with me. - b. Sep 26, 12:30 3
  - Yeah, the mystery basket theme is a long-standing challenge among chefs. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 26, 12:35 2
    - really? I had no idea - I feel like I am behind the curve on the cooking shows -- nm - Epiphany Sep 26, 12:40 1

- is it cause you can't get attached to people - the chefs *and* judges constantly change - Epiphany Sep 26, 12:26 5
  - I am always attracted to the basket and how they use it -- nm - amoxy Sep 26, 12:34
  - there's just something about the format i don't like. i find it sort of lifeless.... - x Sep 26, 12:31
  - Our favorites are Alex G, Amanda Freitag and Scott Conant. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 26, 12:30 2
    - and Aaron, of course. -- nm - Strongbad Sep 26, 12:35 1
      - I like Mark Murphy and Amanda, but Alex takes herself so seriously sometimes -- nm - amoxy Sep 26, 12:40
