i love cutthroat kitchen but bingewatching makes it really stand out how often alton brown refers to himself as ‘daddy’ and makes contestants wear spreader bars
We met Alton Brown at a show he did here - we paid the extra cash to meet him and get a blurry cellphone pic with him and have him sign a picture. He noticed my (male) companion’s pocket watch, and proceeded to order him to take it out of his pocket. It wasn’t obnoxious, it was in a Dom tone that brooked no argument. So he complied. When he found out it wasn’t wound, and so not working, he was deeply disappointed, and told him to do better next time.
If this guy isn’t a Dom, I’ll eat that spreader bar.
Did anyone else just LOVE “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before” as a book WAY more than the movie? I loved the book, but the movie was subpar, I think. I don’t know. I absolutely love Jenny Han’s writing, so maybe that’s why, but I just felt the movie was so rushed? The acting was great and really carried the movie, but the screenplay was just so… blah? I know a book-to-movie adaptation will never be perfect, but I feel like “TATBILB” fell really short. I hate feeling this way, but I can’t shake it. Oh, well. I’m super excited to read the next two books and also wait for Netflix’s sequel.
I’ve just watched “Dumplin’” for the FOURTH time in THREE days. I love it. I absolutely love it. Sweet baby Jesus, please, let there be the sequel made into a movie. As much as I’ll miss Bo and Willowdean, I NEED more Millicent!!! 😭❤️
