I think the best cooking reality show is Masterchef UK. They have 16 chefs and cull them down to 3 for the final faceoff. What I particularly like is that they place them in actual restaurants in one challenge and have th Michellin star chef show they how to cook the dish they will be preparing and then let them have that station for their lunch or dinner serve. You really get to see the food cooked. Masterchef Professionals was outstanding, finale was 3 cooking for 40 star chefs in Britian and their dinner party. It may be on BBC but I catch it on one of the sites for pirated tv shows (tehcake.com) I lost most my TV shows when government swooped down and closed megaupload. What those people don't understand is that I could never afford to have bought the CD's like you all mention you do. I waited 10 years for Farscape DVD's to go from $500 for the series down to $50. Just recently I have gotten so tired of all the violence, the cut open the bodies, the twisted police stories (except I love the closer) and have just stopped watching most of the shows. I guess Kyra has made back all the million Madoff stole from them? Hugh Laurie is going to retire? afte House ends. I just hope when the star decide to stop working a popular and fruitful show that the little people who depend upon that show for their livelihood have another show they can go to. It's bad enough when a netwrk cans a show, but a start? That's why they are gonna try the closer with Mary McDonnel as the star to see if they can keep it going. I am happy to report that the terrible terrible nause has gone - after 6 days of not being able to eat anything but ensure and spending all my time in bed - Sunday found me able to eat anad move about again. Today I was actually strong enough to dress and drive myself to post office to post some bills.
