Some things I liked some I did not.

Highly Overrated But Still Good

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

It is really unpleasant to watch. It comes across as superficial and unlikable. I cannot think of anything that makes me desirous of the storyline in this host's show. Just seems pretentious and fake.

This show and host is so warm and inviting. You get to see first hand her kitchen, ranch and family. Being from Texas and now living in LA, this makes me miss the South and the good cooking. It is great to see such a close knit family that instills work ethics and spending quality time with your family. My mouth waters at just about everything she cooks. It makes me feel like I am right there with Ree Drummond (the host) and have a personal invitation to visit her loving home.

I watched an episode today. I can only surmise that the overly sugary- sweet presenting style has come from all the literal sugar she adds to everything. She even said at one point, something like "sugar ALWAYS makes everything better." Uh, no it doesn't. It was almost as if she was addressing her critics by saying this. How can she feed her kids all that unhealthy stuff? Does she eat all this stuff herself? As for the person who wrote a previous review quoting how many hits her blog has etc etc, nice try bigging her up, whoever you are (Ree).

Aside from the ever-so infamous 'Mystery Diners', this show is probably one of the most scripted on the whole Food Network. Sitting through and listening to Ree's voice in this show is a punishment in itself. Her little jokes that she throws in? Nope, I didn't even crack a smile. It just left me staring at the screen, saying to myself, "...Why?!" . When she's on camera with her family, she acts in this way that is almost unsettling, and you can tell by the looks on her family's faces. It's not only Ree's personality and delivering of lines that makes this show so awful, but her recipes aren't the best thing in the whole world. They're decent at best, bland in the middle, and full of sugar and things terrible for you at worst. Hopefully, you'll be smart and wait until an actual quality show comes on. At best, this show is background noise for whatever you're doing.
