Top Chef is by far my favorite show. I think we’re on season 20 and I’ve seen every episode of every season multiple times. Does it make me want to cook? Hell yes. Do I actually cook? Hell no. The formulaic nature of it, with the same background music, the same general structure...all of it is incredibly soothing to me. Moreover, the creativity associated with what these folks can do with food is fascinating.
As a result of it being my favorite show I’ve found a lot of parallels between it and the current iteration of Aggie Football.
