Summer a good time for Taste test?

With all the interest in Nigella Lawson right now, I’m a little bit surprised Nine hasn’t yet scheduled The Taste.

2013-12-04_2353I’m a little bit surprised Nine hasn’t yet scheduled The Taste.

It’s the US cooking show with 4 judges including Nigella Lawson and Anthony Bourdain.

With all the interest in Nigella Lawson right now, Nine could maximise on this even if it played out on GEM.

After all there’s not much in the way of cooking shows during the Summer season and it could test the audience as to its interest in the format, which sounds like a cooking version of The Voice:

The Taste season begins with blind auditions of both professional and amateur cooks during which four judges, who double as mentors, taste one spoonful of food from each contestant prior to knowing who cooked it or what all the ingredients are. Each judge decides whether or not they would like the contestant on his or her team…

Nine has the rights to both the US series and to a potential Australian version. At the beginning of the year The Taste was one of the shows Nine said it would screen in 2013.
