We watch a lot of "reality based" tv shows, including probably far too many competition shows of various types.
We are currently binging on season 1 of Dessert Masters from Australia. I think we are watching through Prime and it is available through other sources as well.
It is cohosted by Amaury Guichon, who fascinates me. If you don't recognize the name, you might have heard of the "french chocolate guy" or that he had the most viewed Tiktok Video of 2022 with his chocolate giraffe.

I am so amazed by the skills of high end dessert artists of whatever skills they have in both the taste and the visual.
Of course, we do the British Baking Show (and Canadian version). Stateside/Food network I am a sucker for the Championship shows hosted by Jesse Palmer no matter the theme or guest judges. I'm not so into "Is it Cake?" but again, I am amazed at what people can do!
Do you have a favorite show or specific genre of cooking show?
