Saturday Kitchen’s Chaotic Episode: Chris Evans Receives Food Heaven and Hell Dishes
The recent episode of Saturday Kitchen guest-starring DJ Chris Evans has caused a stir among viewers who claimed that the show had gone downhill. Host Matt Tebbutt gave Chris Evans both his food heaven and hell dishes, which is usually determined by a public vote. This decision did not sit well with the audience as they expressed their discontent on social media.
Viewers’ Disdain for Unfair Treatment
Several viewers took to Twitter to express their concerns, claiming that Chris Evans caused chaos and that the show’s standards are declining. One viewer tweeted: “Hang on they’ve done his heaven too, no one else gets that #saturdaykitchen.” Another commented, “Why did they give Chris Evans his Heaven AND his Hell? This S***show is really going down hill.”
While a third expressed support for Chris Evans, writing: “Chris Evans still causing chaos and having a laugh on live TV – it’s great. It’s good to not be so serious for an hour.… #saturdaykitchen.”
Critique on the Heaven and Hell Concept
The voting for the heaven and hell dishes is one of the signature features of Saturday Kitchen. However, some viewers are now calling for the show to drop the concept. They argue that it is outdated and that celebrity guests who have appeared on the show several times have to invent new hell dishes, with Evans reportedly saying that the producers picked the dish for him earlier.
The backlash highlights the ongoing debate on the relevance and purpose of reality cooking TV shows. While it remains widely popular, critics question whether shows like Saturday Kitchen contribute to the over-commercialization of cooking or promote unhealthy culinary practices.
Editorial: Maintaining Standards for Celebrity Guests
The incident with Chris Evan raises questions about the practices of Saturday Kitchen when it comes to celebrity guests. While it is understandable that the show would want to cater to their guests, it should not come at the cost of the show’s standards and fairness to other guests who did not receive similar treatment. The show should also take into consideration the viewers’ opinion as they play an essential role in determining the popularity of the show.
It is important that Saturday Kitchen maintains its standards and fairness to all guests. It is also time for the show to re-evaluate its concepts and ensure that they align with the current culinary scene, promoting healthy cooking practices and diversity in cuisine.
Final Thoughts
Reality cooking shows like Saturday Kitchen provide a platform for chefs to showcase their skills and engage with audiences worldwide. However, they are not without criticism, and it is essential to strike a balance between entertainment and educational aspects. It is high time that people re-evaluate their perspective on cooking shows and start demanding accountability from these shows to ensure that they provide quality content and promote ethical standards in cooking.
