Is this supposed to be a kitchen show or a comedy routine?? Why does David have to show off like a little kid? Not enjoyable.
@luvmybeetle They have always strived to boost the entertainment factor in all live studio shows. It's not just David today. Rick came into the studio and threw free t-shirts to some of them. Jennifer came in yelling and jumping up & down. Sandra told jokes. It's their job to try to make it fun for them.
@luvmybeetle He may be slightly more animated than he usually is, but as @Kachina624 stated, he does have a live audience. Frankly, I'm a bit underwhelmed with the interaction with the audience. I was really looking forward to it, but there is some energy missing. Maybe David is feeling that too.
@Free2be I watched a bit of David's show before they went into the live audience. I believe his at-home audience was large and actively buying while I listened. Even in the years I shopped non-stop, I rarely watched the live-audience shows with any of the hosts.
