Unpopular (?) opinion: the two greatest TV shows ever are Iron Chef and Grand Designs

I used to watch a lot of Robot Wars. Betting and demolishing. Such fun.

[–] Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago

Definitely good fun. I'm sorry but it's not on the same level as my selections however

I loved Iron Chef. But may I add the original Good News Week?

[–] Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

You may, a classic

Antiques Roadshow would like a word.

I honestly thought about adding it to the list. I used to rush home from school to watch it on ABC. I maintain that my two are better though

[–] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I haven’t seen either of these.

Same reply as to Seagoon: Omg you’re missing out. Lots of iron chef full episodes are on YouTube if you wanna check it out

[–] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 1 points 2 months ago

Maybe when I get something installed. Newpipe might be good

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I haven't seen any of these shows other than Bender being Iron Chef.
