has anyone else seen a Food Network show called Farmhouse Rules? I saw it for the first time last week and found it somewhat disturbing.

The recipes were ok, very simplistic and nothing really special. My issue was with the host. It seemed like they have cast a perfectly normal cook with average intelligence but they've directed her to pretend like she's a little retarded. I'm not even playing. It's so odd. There are strange cutaway moments where they catch her looking like she knows what's going on and then she pops right back into this fake "Down Homey Old School" styled grandma who don't take no guff from nobody.

It's just all so put on and insincere. It was kind of insulting.
