Comment on Food TV – Masterchef by Injera

Thanks for visiting, Paul!

I guess I see the UK and Australian versions as two completely different shows. One is focussed on entertainment (and there’s nothing wrong with that) and the other is – whilst trying to amp it up a bit – is still connected to its roots from the old Loyd days. I love both food TV and reality TV, so I guess I prefer the UK as “food TV” and the Australian as “reality TV”. If the local version had been called, say, “So you think you can cook!” I’d be fighting it out for uber-fan status!

I’ve been watching the UK Masterchef and have done so for the last 5 years or so.

Its funny, how everyone criticised our Masterchef for the focus on the crying and how the UK version was far more highbrow.

Well, they couldn”t be more wrong.

There is blubbering in almost every episode on the UK version. I’d sort of forgotten about it from previous years but watching it again now and with the Oz MC not that long finished, its really noticeable.

And I have to say that the Oz format is far superior.

Don’t get me wrong. I was (and am) a big fan of Masterchef UK but IMO it is now the little brother of our version.

I have watched bits of the show since the premiere, and I have to say that the exclamation mark is the best element of the entire adventure.

Too funny

I was also questioning which bring spark thought the exclamation mark in Home Cooked! was a good idea. Who approved these things? Goodness me. I mean, goodness me!
