Been to hell, thanks!

Okay

Okay,

Hear me out.

The people who know me here, also know that I'm a Dean coded heller and a Supernatural fan from the beginning of this blog (apparently, basically, literally). And after Spn got over (The great depression), I watched other movies and series (series, not really. Just rewatched Friends a million times) and recently finished watching Manifest, and it was THE series that I was finally hooked on to after Supernatural. I was absolutely adoring and basically crushing hard on Ben Stone (Josh Dallas) as he was lookin like (for me) Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles. But also a mix of Chris Evans in there.). As episodes passed I thought about those similarities and just thought to myself "Guess I have a type" and moved on and I just, JUST, Saw this image and recognised it was Josh Dallas's WIFE Gennifer Goodwin standing next to Jensen Ackles!! Literally, at a first glance, I just went past that post sayin "She better not be Gennifer Goodwin" and then looked at the tags and was like

"WTF! It's all CONNECTED" LOL

MONKA BANG

MONICA BING!?

I am LOVING the fucking chocolate guy’s netflix show! It’s FANTASTIC! Anf hold on to your fucking boots y’all cause it’s actually not what I was expecting at all!

Do you miss the gentleness of the Great British Bake-Off? THIS SHOW IS SO KIND AND GENTLE! For fuck’s sake, NO ONE GETS KICKED OFF! No. No, Listen to this! When they lose the first challenge (a pastry one), the punishment is… They get private lessons with Amaury to help improve what brought their scores down instead of competing in the second chocolate challenge. 

When the one black lady contestant messed up the first challenge I was super bummed and like, OF COURSE. But NO. She got lessons! She struggled! she worked hard! and she won a later challenge! GROWTH MY DUDES! They are there TO LEARN and GROW and Maybe Win a Big Prize!

They ALL get to stay and keep doing their best! and at the end the one who did the best overall is the one who gets the money prize!

Look at this lovely line up! they make COOL LOOKING FANCY THINGS! Amaury tells us how he does some of the fancy things he does! They OFFER TO HELP EACH OTHER WHEN THEY FINISH EARLY AND GET PROPS FOR THAT! (not taunted for not using their own time better). The set up even kinda makes the one who is like, I’m in it to win it, is the villain and doing bad. The rest who are like, I’m here to learn and grow and maybe make friends! AUGH YOU GUYS!

Amaury is soft spoken and kind, and has a pretty voice and a pretty smile and that’s nice to watch too. The chefs are talented and artistic and they actually give the THE TIME to make nice things! It’s not “Wham out some half-assed garbage in 2 hours so we can shotgun the production and laugh at your garbage” like most cooking shows nowadays. NO! 14 hour challenges! They’re still hard, but they get to actually make cool stuff! fancy stuff! Stuff I want to look at and cheer for them!

The episodes average 38 min and aren’t a huge time commitment, the first episode being the longest one, and there are only 8 total so it’s not like you have to really get in for the long haul. \

The more I reflect on it the more I believe this person knows me and knew this minimalist take would particularly piss me off. The fact this is on a throwaway account with this being their only post really enforces that.
