Full story on the Logies here news.com.au story, but first a thumbs up to comedian and Logie presenter Kitty Flanagan for these oh so wise comments about reality cooking show:
“I just want to let the kids know that if you want to be a chef, you can go to a place called TAFE,” she began. “It’s pretty easy to get in. I keep seeing all these people on MasterChef, My Kitchen Rules. ‘Cooking has always been my dream’.
“I wish someone told them about TAFE. Obviously TAFE is a little bit different. You will learn to cook with ingredients and utensils rather than ‘cooking with your heart’. You will also learn to put food on the plate rather than ‘putting yourself on the plate’. And just one last thing to those My Kitchen Rules (contestants), if one more of you says you’re going to ‘smash it out of the park’, I’m going to smash you out of the park.”
Some reality show wins:
Best Reality Program
The Block (really? It beat MKR, MasterChef, I’m a Celeb and The Bachelor. Why do these people love Scott Cam so much?)
Best New Talent
Adam Dovile, Better Homes & Gardens (that’s chippie Adam who won House Rules in 2014 with girlfriend Lisa)
Best Factual Program
Gogglebox (yay for them but what the heck is factual programming? It was up against the two Bondis (Vet and Rescue), Who Do You Think You Are? and Australian Story. Why are Gogglebox and Australian Story in the same category?)
