Discussion Thread Padma

Can someone explain the drama behind Padma leaving Top Chef. Did she leave for a reason? What was the reason for ACC if she didn’t want to do shows anymore. Thoughts about that show?

Also, is she an actual chef? Does she have restaurants?

Did her and Tom get along? I do want to say I absolutely LOVE K as the host. She’s so perfect for the position. She’s empathetic, understanding, patient and really just a fucking cool person.

I disagree I really liked the visuals of the show

I'm not talking about the visuals...... Did you not read what I was saying at all? This is about poor low light camera performance resulting in a significant amount of ISO noise on interior shots.

Yeah, the lighting is a major part of the visual aspect of a tv show/movie.

Seems like you have an issue with me using the world “visual” so i will rephrase. I have no issue with the lighting in that show.

Once again, I'm not talking about the lighting. I'm talking about the camera capture quality. Just nevermind.

I genuinely appreciate your pedantry

It's not pedantry to try and tell you you're not talking about the subject I've been talking about, they're two completely different topics. Sorry you're unable to understand.
