As a Charleston native, I can say that Carrie is the epitome of a southern woman. She works hard and inspires other women but also takes time with her family. This show also promotes other small businesses which is amazing. I love that Amy won the Price is Right! This show really shows how women can come together and work together to accomplish anything. It is inspiring. I love to watch them do things that I also did as a young girl like crabbing or eating at the Post House. I have also learned how to cook a few new recipes, all of the ones that I have tried are delicious. I can't wait to order the new cookbook.

The show is mundane and boring. It is obviously being used to give national brand recognition to Carie Morey's products. PBS should distance itself from this type of self promotion.

The first episode I watched I thought it was a spoof comedy show like hotwives of orlando. Alas it is not. This show is basically a big advertisement for their Biscuit shop. It focuses on these southern women who decided to sell biscuits. As usual it is done "new skool startup" company style with loads of corny empowering mantas (you should just replace empowered with profitable) as they try to co opt their way thru southern culture. I feel NONE of the soul that a person should watching southern baking as it is all filled by scenes of these ladies in their mansions whining to their partners in their kitchens that never get used. And when they do call upon southern culture, it feels gross and like a soundbite for a podcast. And YES they totally blew thru their startup capital getting a space they could barely afford, a food truck because why not, and lots of onboarding packets for the revolving staff. Quite possibly more gross feeling than watching Vivian try to keep a high end restaurant going in a po dunk town and wondering why no one comes to eat entrails and a turnip that is heirloom. Anyway, this feels almost worse than that trainwreck. It is lame to me as a southerner, as a businessperson, and as a donor to PBS that they thought this would make a good show. I would have to guess one of the husbands is a producer or video editor at PBS. These women clearly spend more time putting on a face in the morning than running the shop or making biscuits.... Back to Trails to Oiishi lol.
