Beat Bobby Flay

Ok, first of all, those people who are saying other person's dish is better... are not the ones tasting it. Presentation wise, maybe, but maybe Bobby's tastes better? I binged watched this, and no, Bobby doesn't win all the time. He wins about 70% of the time. My only question is, when they had an episode where Marcus was selected to go against Bobby, and Marcus is Ethiopian... and of course Marcus selected an Ethipian dish..one of the dishes was Ethiopian food critic. How did they know that Marcus will be chosen and that he will cook Ethiopian, so they prepared an appropriate judge ahead of time? Maybe they had different judges ready in case either contestant wins..but this was sketchy. Still a fun show.

So, if you don't want to read the entire review because I have to write a certain amount. Only 5 Stars because there is so much negativity in the show. Ya, it's supposed to be funny and some of it is, but the viewer is inundated with negative comments from "everyone", all the time.

Especially certain guests, Sunny Anderson being the most negative. I won't watch the show when she is on, and that includes other Bobby Flay shows. She is just downright nasty with what she says, during the ENTIRE show. And she always has to yell.

The show seems to be fairly scripted now as well. It is obvious when a guest, non-chef, throws out criticism towards Mr. Flay in that he/she was most likely told what to say, or what they have brought to the show. And I've always wondered how a non-chef can critique food like a pro. Now there are guests like Michael Symon, Katie Lee, Geoffrey Zakarian, and 'a few' others, where you can tell what they are saying is for fun and original, not scripted.

And lastly, they are in their 39th season and the format is the same, as I remember. Except season 37; The Holiday Season. For myself, that format was great as, not only was it different, but it gave the chef who didn't win the first round another chance to be cooking against Bobby Flay. And isn't that what the show is about?

Thank you for your time.

I think if they beat Bobby they should be able to say i beat Bobby Flay then they ring the bell before running off. Lol. I like the show and think it's funny too.

I had to take my car to the Honda dealership for regular maintenance yesterday afternoon. I was told it was going to take 90 minutes, so I sat in the waiting room expecting to be horribly bored. "Beat Bobby Flay," which is the type of show I never watch, was on the big-screen TV, and I saw three episodes before my car was ready. I have to say it's not bad. The premise, that two challengers have to cook against each other with the main food item of Bobby's choice, then Bobby has to cook against the winner with the main food item of the winner's choice, is actually pretty clever. The announcers were somewhat annoying but didn't spoil it for me. The cooking itself was impressive and made me hungry. Bobby lost against a challenger two out of the three shows I saw, so the challengers definitely had a chance. I doubt I will ever watch this show at home, but it made waiting for my car less boring than I would have expected.

I think the show is fake . I know the results as soon as I see many repeat judges, Bobbie will win . And why is his food tasted always last . Bobbie really , stop making yourself better than you are . I hate your show, so fake.
