'Chopped' Season Premiere Rechat

Not impressed at all....ripped off Top Chef and not in a good way! Mystery basket after mystery basket....not nearly the creativity in Top Chef challenges. Don't know if I will watch again, only if I get snowed in.

I love the food network and I watch Almost everything on cooking. I am sad to say watching "Chopped" is a joyless experience...There is nothing fun about this show! Ted Allen always seems like he wants everyone to have a sweet and wonderful time, but not here ! I think in these times we need some lightness and FUN!! This show should be exciting and inspiring..not ridiculously unfair in judgment and bland..It is not too late to change the format..hopefully!

Lemme see if I got this straight... we are hammering a TVFN show for sucking?! This is akin to judging hitler to be evil..... Where's the weenie? These people have already put in stone that they could F$%@ -up a one car funeral!

@mrlancestuckey: There is no fake drama because there is no drama at all.

I cannot bring myself to watch this. Fake drama does nothing for me. And as for Ted Allen, he's sometimes insightful on Iron Chef but it seems that in every other appearance he makes he's simply reading off the teleprompter. What does Food Network see in this guy?

@chiff--it's nice to know that my mind is 'thinking alike' like you, gives me hope for my culinary future ;) I guess tomato soup and sugary cookies together made Shirley Temple a pioneer of culinary fusion.

Speaking of animal cracker cooking--America's Test Kitchen used animal crackers for a lemon cheesecake crust. Looked yummy. No prunes, though.

I thought Ted was brilliant on Top Chef, and I'm sad he left to do his food network shows but I understand that he wants to break out on his own as a bigger personality.

With that said, Chopped is pretty boring.

How Well Will the Obama Administration Handle Food Issues?

I couldn't care less about the White House chef, which I think is a frivolous issue. (I'm embarrassed for Alice Waters and that whole initiative.) But Tom Vilsack for Agriculture Secretary? We might as well start eating cornbread with corn fritters, with a side of corn salsa, for every meal.

How Well Will the Obama Administration Handle Food Issues?

I would like to see food issues addressed by any administration, but doesn't everyone think that another food related issue needs to be addressed first...obesity...Obesity is going to become, if it already has not, a huge health care issue for this country, If we are going to have a president address a food issue, it needs to be this.

Excellent point.
