This is a show I remember watching a few years back. And today, I caught the rerun of one episode.

It is still so HILARIOUS. I went to google I found out that all the episodes are available online on 8tv's website!!

I have to say, this is one of the best local show that I have watched. In my opinion, it is better than Hong Kong's Beautiful Cooking show. And everyone speaks English so it's a plus. My Cantonese understanding is pretty low...


From wikipedia,
In each episode, two pairs, each consisting of a "cook" and a "cannot cook" (i.e. one possesses the skills while the other does not, at least for the featured meal), competing against each other in a cooking showdown. Only the "cannot cooks" will enter the kitchen and perform the cooking while the "cooks" yell instructions to their partners. To make matters harder, the "cooks" are kept fairly distant from the "cannot cooks" in a booth equipped with monitor to observe the his/her partner's performance – a camera is attached on each "cannot cook's" forehead.

Mmm, recipe for Kan-Cheong-ness.

Hosts are funny and the judges are funny. Contestants are stressed to the point of being funny. Watch the 'cook' YELL REALLY REALLY LOUDLY and the 'cannot cook' attempting to cook while being distracted by the hosts.

Now I'm marathon-ing all the episodes (sadly only 26) here.

You know, I'm pretty lazy when it comes to websites where I have to register to watch their content, but I did it immediately to feed my appetite for Kan Cheong Kitchen.

While the food one the show won't make you hungry, and might make you lose your appetite instead, the hilarious and exciting cooking segment makes it worthwhile!

Feeling down and not hungry (I have to emphasize the word not because sometimes the food comes out really bad...)? Watch it! I laugh a whole lot watching this show.

Best part? No loading time! The videos play immediately for me.

Let the Kan Cheong begin!

For the record, I am a 'cannot cook'.

It's like the new IN thing. A disease. Which I am currently suffering from.

... well not suffering really. But I'm getting addicted.

Musicals

I've watched a few when I was young. The Sound of Music and Mary Poppins anyone?

Then came High School Musical. 1, 2 and 3.

Glee? Oh I LOVE Glee. The song covers and the choreographs. I'll Stand by You? True Colours? Sue Sylvester? Kurt? He's my favourite character.
I can't wait for it to continue. Episode 13 was such a tease!

And now... Malaysia's own.

Hotel Mania


To be frank, I can't believe I'm actually watching it. And enjoying it too. Sure, the acting leaves a lot to be desired, but I was hooked the moment Marsha (yes I actually know her name, she stands out for me) sang the first song.

Hotel Mania is very much inspired by the new musical programme, Glee, which has won ‘Best Musical or Comedy Television Series’ in the recent Golden Globe Awards.
And yes it is, but it's more like HSM where people suddenly break into a song instead of on a stage.

And KRU songs. Oh boy. It's like I KNOW these songs back in my head. KRU. Classic.

In Hotel Mania, besides the drama itself, another significant strength that sets this series apart from other musicals in the country is the inclusion of KRU’s songs, to accompany the story.

I'm not really sure about Adi, the main character. I feel like the others have more personality than him. But this is just the first episode. Fingers crossed for character development.

Mar (Marsha) and Ryz are my favourites so far. Mar is Hotel Mania's SHARPAY. She's got the power! The way she talks, the way she walks and the way she stands. I like Sharpay. Therefore Mar is definitely one of my favourites.
Ryz? Well he doesn't talk much. He's the cool and silent type. Mmhmm.

Anyone remembers Adam and Bob from the older Akademi Fantasia? They are there too.

TV3, 9pm on Tuesdays.
I hope Hotel Mania won't let us down. This is one Malaysian production that I will be keeping track of. Malaysia Boleh?
