I saw where several of you said you don't like her. What is it you don't like about her? My reason is her voice.....it just grates on my nerves, but even worse than her is that blonde exersize girl, that does commercials for Idaho potatoes, doggone it, I cannot for the life of me remember her name, this is happening ALOT to me lately.........HELP ME , IM LOSING MY MIND!!!!!!!!!

For me it is that Rachel Ray is everwhere, when she did just the 30 minute meals I liked her but with the 30 minute meals a daytime show, commercials and stuff it is way too much now I can't stand to see her.

Yeah, my fellow grad student friends and I are like "Psh, $40 eating out? EASY. Let's see you do $15 for the whole day!" Hehe.

I don't really mind Raechel Ray, she's cute and makes food that's accessible to people. Her way of speaking does get a bit annoying though.

It's her voice that gets to me. It's over the top. I feel like I'm watching an infomercial or something. I enjoy watching 30 Minute Meals reruns. She was more subdued and less abrasive in her earlier shows. She had a "cuteness" about her. I do like many of her recipes though.

Berryshaker....are you thinking of Denise Austin?

**lovestoread** · 01-12-2008, 07:02 PM

Yes that is her.... i finally remembered...... her voice REALLY gets to me!!!!

**lwlynch** · 01-12-2008, 07:10 PM

I still like her, she is still kinda out there, but that is what sells.. I think the thing that I dislike the most about all of them.. is that they leave stuff in the bowl...I wish someone would come up with a frugal cooking show.. scrap the batter a bit more...lol

I have to agree that she is irritating. I am sure she is a nice person but she is so spastic that I can't watch her. She makes me very nervous.

She doesn't bother me so much, which is a good this as my DS loves her! Go figure.

**cab54** · 01-12-2008, 08:02 PM

I like cheerful people, but not bouncing-off-the-walls, giddy, cheerful.

I'm sure she's very nice, but I am not drawn to watch her.

Can't put my finger on it.

**Becci** · 01-12-2008, 08:28 PM

I like Rachel but she is very in your face. I find I am exhausted just watching her. I guess thats called being Italian? (I think thats right can't remember lol)

I agree .. this makes me crazy!

Denice's voice REALLY bothers me. Rachel is what I call hyper .. she makes me tired just watching her.
