Beat Bobby Flay

I watch the Beat Bobby Flay program from Nigeria. You can almost always predict that Bobby Flay will win almost every other time because the judges look at their faces and dishes and Bobby Flay will always make facial and body expressions to show that it's his dish being judged.

For FAIRNESS the judging should be BLIND. No one should know the owner of the dish (say DISH A or DISH B) and the chefs should be invited after the results for dishes have been reached by the judges.

Most times I watch I feel like the visiting chef will lose even when it's obvious that Bobby's dish might have received some negatives. My opinion.

I had to take my car to the Honda dealership for regular maintenance yesterday afternoon. I was told it was going to take 90 minutes, so I sat in the waiting room expecting to be horribly bored. "Beat Bobby Flay," which is the type of show I never watch, was on the big-screen TV, and I saw three episodes before my car was ready. I have to say it's not bad. The premise, that two challengers have to cook against each other with the main food item of Bobby's choice, then Bobby has to cook against the winner with the main food item of the winner's choice, is actually pretty clever. The announcers were somewhat annoying but didn't spoil it for me. The cooking itself was impressive and made me hungry. Bobby lost against a challenger two out of the three shows I saw, so the challengers definitely had a chance. I doubt I will ever watch this show at home, but it made waiting for my car less boring than I would have expected.

Please keep up On seasons and episodes! Hard to keep track of which ones have been watched when they aren't even listed on IMDB! A 8 year old intern could do it! I track and rate the shows as I watch. Hard to do when they aren't even listed. IMDB is THE app to do this! Please! Thank you!

Love watching Bobby flay. Gives me ideas about different dishes. Only bad part about this show is Sunny Anderson. I swear to god this has to be the MOST ANNOYING PERSON in the world. Also why after only a couple minutes someone has to run over and annoy who ever is cooking. Please get rid of sunny Anderson and Katie Lee both way too too too annoying.

So, if you don't want to read the entire review because I have to write a certain amount. Only 5 Stars because there is so much negativity in the show. Ya, it's supposed to be funny and some of it is, but the viewer is inundated with negative comments from "everyone", all the time.

Especially certain guests, Sunny Anderson being the most negative. I won't watch the show when she is on, and that includes other Bobby Flay shows. She is just downright nasty with what she says, during the ENTIRE show. And she always has to yell.

The show seems to be fairly scripted now as well. It is obvious when a guest, non-chef, throws out criticism towards Mr. Flay in that he/she was most likely told what to say, or what they have brought to the show. And I've always wondered how a non-chef can critique food like a pro. Now there are guests like Michael Symon, Katie Lee, Geoffrey Zakarian, and 'a few' others, where you can tell what they are saying is for fun and original, not scripted.

And lastly, they are in their 39th season and the format is the same, as I remember. Except season 37; The Holiday Season. For myself, that format was great as, not only was it different, but it gave the chef who didn't win the first round another chance to be cooking against Bobby Flay. And isn't that what the show is about?

Thank you for your time.
