Unfortunately it did not live up to the Great Pottery Throwdown from the UK. Lifeless setting, the contestants and judges/host (let's stop getting boring pretty people as hosts, more comedians like Siobhan) don't have charm, character, and heart like they do in their counterpart. Didn't really like that the first episode was basically make whatever you want as long as it reminds you of home, made it harder to judge. Was really looking forward to this season and a PNW spin on the original series that I love so much but I walked away disappointed with the first episode. Hope the season continues to improve, both with the challenges, getting to know the contestants/judges, and hopefully an improved setting because that white warehouse with exposed wiring isn't nearly as nice as the colorful and full of plants room in the original!
