Do you think young talented kids like Masterchef’s
Juniors are compatible with the professionals? There’s a new cooking
competition series featuring pint-sized prodigies taking on culinary veterans.
Following its successful U.S. debut and launch in other world markets, Man vs. Child: Chef Showdown!
The show pits some of America’s most talented young chefs
against the very people they look up to – professionally-trained adult chefs,
most of whom have been cooking longer than their challengers have been alive.
Hosted by chef and television personality Adam Gertler,
the 13-episode series follows a team of five up-and-coming child cooking
wunderkinds – Estie (8), Dylan (11), Emmalee (12), Cloyce (13) and Holden (14)
– who face off against a different executive-level chef each week for bragging
rights.
Man vs. Child:
Chef Showdown is an A+E Networks® original format and we personally think
it will really resonate with the audiences in Asia. Child prodigies and cooking
competition shows have already proven their popularity on Lifetime and this
show has both of those ingredients (pun intended)! It’s wholesome entertainment
for the entire family in a region where people are passionate about their food.
‘#JustAKid’ campaign will be launched in celebration of children on Lifetime.
Do check it out!
