chenoa333 January 1, 2019 Share January 1, 2019 I really had no idea in which thread to post this so I'm probably going get a citation from the Mods! However, I need to unload something that has bothered me for some time. I constantly hear the judges telling contestants NOT to use the word "delicious" when describing food. I get it. But why is "ooey gooey" ok to use over and over and over again? Especially Ms. Twig (Giada). Everything she describes is ooey gooey and any contestant who uses "ooey gooey" does not ever get chastisted for using this stupid, gross term for describing food. What exactly IS "ooey"? Is it an Italiano word? No. Is it even a word? Sometimes I really hate this stupid show. Thank you for letting me vent. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/5688-food-network-star-alums/page/18/#findComment-4950220
chenoa333 January 3, 2019 Share January 3, 2019 (edited) Ok. I Googled the "word" ooey (without the gooey) and the ONLY definition of ooey, according to CollinsDictionary.com is: "A substance which is repulsive to look at or touch." None of the other dictionaries consider "ooey" a word. Good job Food Network! Lol!

Maverick May 7, 2019 Share May 7, 2019 Christian was a "permanent" judge on the Thanksgiving cook-off show (all of 3 episodes). He had been a guest judge on Chopped and Beat Bobby Flay prior to being on FNS. I don't believe Jess has been seen since "co-winning". Last season was the worst yet. And that's saying something with the Lenny season out there. It's consistently one of their highest rated shows, but last year they shortened the season to 9 episodes. Normally they would add contestants and make a popular show longer, not shorter. Maybe even FN can't bear to sell the sham that one of these people will become a star and decided to drop the show. That would be fine with me since it's become such a redundant charictiture of itself. But I suspect we'll start seeing promos for it any day now after the Spring Baking ones are out of rotation.
