Pretty good show ( finally got to watch last night ). I kind of equate it to the beginning of the BN and I assume it will get better going forward now that the 1st episode is out of the way and they can all relax.

Can we get Moscow to hold cue cards so J can drop the clipboard and interact better with the contestants?

And that guy on the green shirt team is scary lookin'...Matt something... :wink:

Looking forward to episode 2 ( and the animated pen Ford commercial of course )

I'm sorry, but I am calling "Emperor's New Clothes" here. The first episode was not very good. The production quality is poor and I find the editing to be choppy. Also, every good reality TV show (that is what this is) develops the contestants so the viewer becomes emotionally invested in them, and in turn in the show. I fail to see that happening.
Having said this, I feel that it would be unfair to judge it based on one viewing and will give it a second chance.

I think you'll find the episodes get more interesting and characters better defined as the show progresses. Bear in mind that it's tough to squeeze all those things into just one half hour show.

Will do. I want to like it, but I also want to be objective. Best of luck!

Don't forget, this show has a budget of $3. This is not a "traditional" reality show by any sense.

Az, I do agree with you. 100%.

I thought the second episode was ok. I liked the judging stuff at the end but wish there was more of it. There are definitely some interested production choices, there was some laughably bad music playing around the time they told the brewers about switching ingredients. Also someone tell JP to stop walking through the background when they are shooting.
