I don't watch the American version because all I care about is the cooking. This show is all about the cooking. I like when Monica and Michel demonstrate how they do things.
The chefs aren't cocky jerks like you see here in the US. I don't care about backstories or quirky personalities...
I wish they put captions describing the dishes. Monica needs to ease up on the facial expressions but it seems like people enjoy that.
Everyone is so polite. It's a breath of fresh air.
Yes, much more interesting, more about cooking than personality. No mean, nasty back-stabbing here. No running around in some sort of team sport with food silliness.
Closed captions work for this show. Try again.
Disagree re Monica's facial expressions. She's not just mugging for the camera. She's warning the contestant.
i love this show it is by far better than any cooking show in the US and yes, i am an American. everyone is so much nicer and there is no drama which the US shows seem to thrive on. and one observation, the chefs here all know how to make desserts! in the US the chefs seen to treat dessert as an unnecessary evil, i believe ALL true chefs should have to have pastry skills. side note: i <3 ash i hope he wins!!!

And they cook outstanding food! Does anyone know when the next season is starting? I have already watched the 2011 and 2012 series twice!!!
