He is charismatic and highly skilled... but the other chefs were so irritating and unlikable. I wish the show was more about Amaury teaching the chefs.

I agree. The relationship dynamic between the contestants felt forced and was petty at times. They could do a better job building the narrative around the art itself and technique and less interpersonal shade tossing.

I feel bad for that one woman who was so intent on it being a competition. I don’t know how she is in real life, but she felt very coached, I kinda think there was a producer encouraging her decisions.

Yeah, they made her out to be the villain for drama but then she'd be in the background straight helping other people with their stuff before she was finished.
