After watching the cream stealing episode of masterchef today, I feel so dissapointed In a show that started off so well. The first season was really good, where the focus was mostly food. The show was a genuine cooking competitions The second season was still ok, but in the second season favoritism started, with all the attention given to shipra. In the third season, the standards went down further, when Doyle's nautanki was given so much air time. She was saved in the giant falooda task even though her falooda was a mess, starting the trend that if you want to survive in masterchef you really don't need to be a good cook at all, just do nautanki. Now in the fourth season the show has degraded horribly, where people are stealing and no action is taken, where good contestants are dissapearing and bad ones are hanging around, where the focus is hardly food but other dramas. If you were to watch cooking competitions in food network USA, these competitions are so professional and the focus is only food, no dramebaazi, people are removed solely for their poor performances and strong performers survive. Even masterchef in other countries is more professional. The worst part is renowned chefs like sanjeev kapoor and vikas Khana are part of this mockery of a competition. In my opinion they should not associate themselves with such a show unless the standards improve.
