Reply to comment by melbbear in Drink Masters on Netflix rides the line between "mildly interesting" and "this is the most pretentious shit ever" by jcwitte

I like the British version more, just because I can recognize a few people (Mary Berry, Paul Hollywood).

Every cooking competition apart from British Bake-Off and whatever Guy Fieri is doing is horrible, if you ask me, for the simple fact that there's so much manufactured tension. Chopped is the worst for this.

The sets may as well start literally exploding.

If you like cooking shows but want to avoid drama - Masterchef: The Professionals (UK) is brilliant. All the chefs are chefs in Michelin kitchens so the standard is super high - but there's literally no 'I'm not here to make friends, I'm here for my family' bullshit.
