Jacqui Malouf is necessary because Bobby Flay can't produce an intelligent sentence. He has the verbal skills of an above average Down's Syndrome child. He is often at a loss for words and can't articulate the nuances of various culinary procedures. And he's not going to win any personality contests with his narcissism. I saw him way back when on Ming Sai's show and he acted condescending and disrespectful.
He is a good chef but he NEEDS a verbal crutch.
But your point is well taken Chiff and shows like "How to boil water" are a perfect example. The dorky blonde on that show does nothing but distract from the show. The only reason I watch it is because I think Tyler Florence is so good. |
