I agree! Hope the narrator is as good as the UK one ( probably not though) Looking forward to watching :D

Bring it on! I'm just surprised that there are enough people willing to make idiots of themselves.

It will be crap, but only because guy Williams is the host / narrator

What is with all these cheap nasty, reality shows? Where is the decent TV we used to have 30 yrs back? Decent comedy, current affairs, travel, nature etc. Hardly worth pressing the remote now. Thank gawd for DVD's. Frankly the real talented programmers have buggered off overseas, they saw the writing on the wall.

I'm not surprised at all. The promise of money makes idiots of many as the current reality shows indicate. I can think of several on these boards who would be very suitable but I only know their trading names.

In the Campbell live slot they must think we are so dumb, I won't be wanting it utter rubbish.

LOL, my first thought was 4 whom remain nameless with a fifth (a Neutral) to make up one heck of a Bun Fight, LOL.
My son noted to us quite some time ago "Who would you like to see at a Dinner Table, first one was Jesus, next the Devil, then Hitler or Stalin, Billy Graham or William Carey and ME (the son) ! ", thought at the time it was a cracker. Yep, nothing better than a good BUN FIGHT !

Do you mean good as in enjoyable - or good as in he's such a prat and so appalling that I just want to smack him every time I hear his voice?
The latter for me.

Good as enjoyable ~ I think he is really funny ! But i know of people who don't like him either. I personally want to smack the Big save furniture girl every time she opens her mouth! . Stop yelling at us!

The problem with trainwreck tv shows coming to our tiny piece of Paradise is we're all BOUND to know someone on them (either directly or by association). Shudder.

Well I'd love to do this :) But then I love cooking and entertaining and have do all sort of neat dinner parties that have got a bit crazy :) Cryptic Crossword Menu :) Ok mostly with people I know :) Has been the odd ring-in but a couple of wines and they get the idea. Wrong time on TV slot for me but may have a look in from time to time. Mind you I'd just love to put myself to the test cooking wise.

I think he's enjoyable too! Love that show but cant believe how uneducated they are about cooking! Sometimes I wonder if they pretend to not know what the foreign dishes are, and mispronounce them for a laugh. My husband has to leave the room as he cant stand it.

Even worse than I feared.

Well why not give it a go, there is an Apply Now button at the top of the page.-
Went to TV3+1 for that one hour later and got the feeling that the producers are only interested in anything silly that can be conjured up and not much about the meals and comments.
I wanted to see what others really do but it was very disappointing and concentrated on the personalities and hinting other meanings of choice of words used, (hopefully this makes sense). Is this the norm these days?

Yes, I'm afraid that's the norm for this programme! Can't stand the UK version of it, and the NZ one seems even worse - if that's at all possible. And as for the narrator. I wanted to smack the UK one - I REALLY want to smack the NZ one.
I'm done watching it after one episode, but others will love it.

Same here. I thought it was painful to watch a group of embarrassing themselves with their behaviour. A crap show IMO

I watched it ondemand, mainly out of curiosity after reading others negative comments. I have to agree, it was rubbish. Same as the UK one which was OK when it first aired but went downhill at a rapid pace after the first series.
