James May: Oh Cook!

I have watch travel cooking shows.

I have watched in your kitchen cooking shows.

All do what it says on the tin and the delivery is I suppose faultless but it is made for cooks.

James May is just delightful. Like the rest of us is not a cook nor spending a ton of time in the kitchen cooking.

But like the rest of us enjoys good food and good wine!

This is so good. So funny. Not pretentious like most cooking shows. Honest. And James May - Captain Slow and precise at his best proves that cooking is about following well written instructions in receipes to the letter to produce good food. Really good fun. Keep it coming.

Season 3 please.

I can't wait for the next season. I've never found myself chuckling or bursting out loud laughing so much during any other cooking show. The mishaps were hysterical and I loved that the film crew were part of the show. James's sense of humor, the gadgets, and Niki make the show endearing, more than a straightforward cooking show. I felt included in the kitchen and had a glass or two right along with them. While a lot of the "out of the can"recipes were so-so, I loved James's pride in his first cake, the cheesy cauliflower, the Spotted Dick and many others. I want to try his smoked fish and rice breakfast dish for sure. Only, don't keep shoving Niki back in the closet. That was a little cringy.

This series is so funny if you are bored and want to watch something to pass time I would highly recommend this it's quite funny and definitely should be a second season.

Really do wish that you guys would just allow James and Nikki to co host rather than kicking Nikki out of the kitchen. Nikki and James just work together like pie and peas would love to see Nikki and James both at the Forefront of the show as co-hosts as the charisma between the two is second to none

I like the show, because i can identify a bit with James. He is not an experienced cook, so he learns as he goes and teaches us some fundamentals at the same time. He does have the advantage of a good kitchen and professional help. But in the end he is stumbling through instructions, like most of us.

I think i learned more about cooking then any other show and I especially like him trying out dumb cooking tools, to make life as an amateur cook easier. He should do that more in the next season. Because most tools do not work, or work very briefly. A sharp knife has to date been the best advise. However, some tools do actually work and i would love to know about them.

Really hope there is going to be another season!
