My wife loves that show, I was never able to fathom why it is so interesting to watch people being frustrated in you free time. Cooking should be so about fun and love, don’t shout with my food, please.
Watching people be frustrated is literally half of why streaming is so popular
The other half is, of course, boobs
I’m gonna have to disagree. Hell’s kitchen has been on for nearly 20 years now, Master Chef for over ten, etc. They’re on multiple networks and are popular in multiple countries and continents. To say they’re “designed” as a recruitment tool is just ridiculous. They’re “designed” as entertainment, and they are entertaining. Hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent by networks producing these kinds of shows in the past 20 years, they’re not going to spend money like that to advance some agenda of “getting people to work as cooks,” they’re gonna spend that money to advance the agenda of “I and my fellow entertainment executives want more money in our pockets.”
Interesting way to look at it. I saw it as more reality TV bloat content.
