The Kitchen

I enjoy the show. I enjoy the interaction between the hosts. I think the recipes are really geared toward the home cook. I think the show is good for getting people to want to cook, by giving fairly simple and doable recipes.

I enjoy seeing Zacharian making the drinks at the end of each show. Great ideas for something different for get togethers.

I do not like how Sunny Anderson is constantly filling her face on the show. She will reach over and grab if it is not within arms reach. If someone asks who would like to try this, she is usually the first to voice up and pouts if given to another person. It's annoying.

I used to be obsessed with watching The Kitchen -- followed it through multiple time changes, every weekend and even repeats on Monday. It was fun for the first few seasons, but really lost a lot of its entertainment value when Marcela left. She was kind of a sensible, laid-back personality that balanced the stuffiness and goofiness of the others.

Then Sunny's personality took over the show, drowning out her co-hosts and the food they prepare. I don't know if she does it on purpose or if she cannot help herself. The people behind the scenes must see what the audience sees, but obviously they haven't done enough to make the show bearable. When I last watched, they did have Sunny sitting a lot, which makes it more difficult for her to do her well-documented grab-and-stuff-your-mouth act.

I guess I quit watching after the last break the cast had before Thanksgiving and Sunny looked like she had eaten the whole time. I bet she gained twenty pounds. She is not the only host on FNC to have eaten herself into obesity. Making food for a living must be a frightful life. That is one reason I admire Jeff, who realized he was packing on the pounds and did something positive about it.

Anyway, I quit watching The Kitchen, and that resulted in my turning off my tv entirely. Haven't even missed it. Thanks, Sunny. Ironically I owe you for improving my life -- and I didn't even need a recipe to do it!

I have enjoyed this show for years; however, lately it has been disappointing. Not great recipes anymore. I find it difficult to believe that Katie is a chef...her recipes are awful and usually very easy! As for Sunny, her recipes are always loaded with so many calories and she's gained soooooo much weight that she looks sloppy! All of the chefs on the show immediately offer their dish to Sunny first or she moves close to be the first to taste....cool out Sunny. Her behavior is piggy and annoying and all the crazy shades of lipsticks and hair styles seem a bit unnecessary. Jeff is the coolest of all of them. Geoffrey is just too damn stuck up...oh, well....

I watch or record this every Saturday, so obviously I like it. But with Marcela gone and only 4 left, the things that bug me about Sunny and Katie Lee are magnified. Sunny is awful, although lately she seems a wee bit toned down. But it's still too much, too loud, she's a food grabber, and she and talks/chews at the same time. Ugh.

Katie Lee drives me nuts, although I like her recipes a lot. It's the way she talks and rolls her r's ("very frrrrrresh and flavorrrrrrful"). Also, she's very pretty, but seems to enjoy wearing old bedspreads. That sounded a bit petty, but c'mon.

The guys are cool. They're my fave part.

I've been reading the reviews on the Food Kitchen some of which go back 5 years. It is sad that the producers have chosen to ignore the comments of their viewers. I too feel that the show would be better if Sunny did not have the attitude that she is the center of attention. Her table manners are atrocious, she talks way too loud, she is disrespectful, she devours food like she has never been feed and she makes watching the show painful. Dial it down Sunny and understand that you are not the show. There are four other individuals who share the space with you. Listen to and respect the viewers. Stop interrupting your co-host and stop with the very bad manners.
