Buddy trained the one chef at his restaurant in LA for a few days so they got some hands-on experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOTW Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 I've also watched 3 episodes so far. I was really interested in the premise and heard good things. But the way they're executing the story isn't living up to the premise for me. He just shows up and starts changing things without even having a staff meeting to explain it to anyone and starts making food on his own but not communicating. He talks about coming from proper restaurant training and gourmet experience and then leads them horribly in the beginning. I like the chef making the bread who's taking interest and being inspired by a gourmet chef with his experience. The lead actor is not compelling at all so not really rooting for him. The sous chef isn't believable, this place is in debt and he has money to hire an additional staff before evaluating the current staff? It would have made more sense for him to realize after seeing them perform who needs to go and then hire new people. His anxiety and health issues for me are taking away from the core story. There's so much change management to happen with people, marketing to the community to bring more money in, etc. He planned the video game thing without telling anyone then his cousin was rude to them. They never talked about it again, or addressed how to reach more customers. It's a bit chaotic. I hope it gets better. The pieces are there, just not putting them together very well.

My wife was like immediately no, I can't take this. Exactly. Can be a tough watch after a stressful day of work with dinner. Not quite big time enough for weekend viewing. But if you can get it in small doses it is worth the effort. It delivers real emotion and has a lot to say about pain, loss, hope, work, family.

BDawk_ASamuel Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Just finished season 2. That was the best season of television I’ve watched in a while. Especially episode 6. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK Eagle Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 I didn't know there was a season 2 out until now. Nice, but looks like I've gotta wait for few weeks for it to hit D+ over here. Really enjoyed season 1 - bit oppressive at times, but nice something to have a program that has a different concept to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched all 8 S1 episodes and am through 8 S2 episodes. I think there are 2 remaining which I’ll knock out when I get back home (grabbing some happy hour discounts on the way home from weekend errands). Watched episode 7 before leaving which was the only 1hr episode (I think?) and one I can understand why people were talking about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOTW Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Season 2 was much better IMO. It developed characters well, the directing, editing and score/soundtrack were very well done (it felt to me like the show runners evolved their skills). I felt season 1 was too rushed, and I think part of that was the style they were going for that the restaurant business moves fast or something. But season 2 did a nice job slowing things down at times to focus on some of the characters, and then when it was the right time to ramp up the speed. The back of house scenes that are rapid fire speed showcase the pressure cooks face really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But watch a TV show because it's good. Boobs are only a plus. You can see endless boobs nude online for free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
