Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

VxViper The "Chefs" that compete on this show seem to lack culinary knowledge and often seem to refer to themselves as "Cooks" and not Chefs, for those who don't know, trained chefs NEVER refer to themselves as "Cooks". The show also has a theme that they want to make sure you know this is a Canadian show by having a Canadian ingredient in each basket and making sure that they keep talking about how it's Canadian. Don't get me started on the Judges, they tend to be pretty condescending and themselves competing against their fellow judges. Having Dean McDermott as host is something hard to swallow (no pun intended), the choice to put him in as host was a bad one giving his shady past that many in the US audience can't forgive/forget. All in all, more thought went into building the set of the show rather than the dynamics of the show itself.

Doug-219-438242 The latest chopped Canada episode was completely disappointing. The judges concentrated more on their egos and making the competition a PC popularity contest than focusing on the food and the actual taste of the dishes. I would suggest getting actual chefs or real foodies as judges rather than boorish half celebrities that want to be controversial just to get their names in the tabloids. It's usually a fun, interesting and informative show... But when the contestants story is put over the taste of the food, it's a boring disaster that I had to turn off and I recommend everyone else do the same. Don't waste your time. The chefs were actually quite good, but with the injustice of the judges, it was a disservice to them all. Shame on them.

LeDentalPlaque I'm from Canada, but I find that Chopped US is much more entertaining than Chopped Canada. I think the primary reason is the host and judges on the show. They don't seem to find judging as fun and jolly as those in the US version, and there's a much more serious and duller tone throughout each episode as compared to the US version.It's still nice to see talented Canadian chefs compete on Chopped Canada, but I find that if I were to choose, I would definitely prefer the original US series to this one. Like another reviewer said, there's no "wow" factor here, and it's pretty boring and lacking in some areas.In addition, I feel as if the host, Dean McDermott, does not do a good job at hosting the show at all. Compared to Ted Allen, he doesn't bring about a passion for cooking like he does, and he doesn't fit the bill of host quite well.

eileenlauren Alas, Chopped Canada, is missing the WOW! factor. It is a boring show. Unfortunately, a show in the Chopped vein must have a great Host. This show does not. I found myself looking forward to a commercial not what was going to happen next. The Host has no stage presence, camera appeal, even his look lacks any appeal whatsoever. Even the Judges have nothing important let alone interesting to say or add to the show. The entire show leaves me bored. Too bad, I'm a huge fan of CHOPPED! This show deserves to be revamped, rewritten, and perhaps that would make watching it worthwhile. It might be a good idea if the Producers, writers, judges, Host, even contestants all watch the original CHOPPED to draw inspiration from. I doubt CHOPPED CANADA will get any better though. It's just really, really, and I mean really a dull TV show. I'd only watch it if all the other TV channels were blacked out. Perhaps a new Host would turn the show around.
