not sure why people think he's high or stupid. he's every typical aussie tradie bloke i've ever known, great heart and actually a lot smarter/good problem solvers than you'd think. what a lad.
true and also he's very funny when he does to the contestants and also its super funny i actually like how the more he doesn't know anything about cooking but very smart into cooking
exafuckingctly hahaha he's that kind of guy who isn't good at it, who doesn't train, who looks to have no potential...and yet he immediately becomes powerful and win the whole damn thing.
I think most people watching haven’t watched season 4. Don't let this vid fool you, he had less technical knowledge, but he was naturally very talented. He was one of the frontrunners throughout his season.
Not really a frontrunner. I'd probably say he was very average and just barely won against Amina to crack top 10. The real turning point was that draw against Sam, where both of them survived and he just kept getting better and better. In the last 5-6 cooks, the guy just went into a different level. He definitely would've studied and practiced a lot at the MasterChef home every night. And the fact he was quite popular probably allowed him to learn from other contestants.
@@ismohd87 exactly I still remember how shocked I was that he pulled through that challenge, I was sure he was gonna go home but he really turned things around after that.
@@ismohd87 Its strange how he was SO clueless and was still entered in the show. I would think that one has to be QUITE knowledgeable to be a contestant
@debbieangel9376 This was one of the earlier seasons where a lot of contestants were just great regular home cooks who used to cook with common ingredients and didn't necessarily know the more complicated thing. In those days, the ability to grow and evolve as a cook mattered a lot more than it does now(Lvl 1 to 50 > Lvl 50 to 52) Andy did exactly that, Fun fact, he is one of the only few(or the only) masterchef contestants to earn a Chef's hat for his restaurant
This is why Daniel this year reminded me so much of Andy, started out with limited knowledge, and just learnt and grew so much. Hope Daniel goes far like Andy has.
This season is one of the first memories of watching Masterchef for me. Good to see so many familiar faces! I remember in one elimination the judges were so impressed by the two helping each other they didnt eliminate anyone !! Was really blown away by that. Super glad that Ben and Andy are still friends, and Andy is where he is right now. Gives all of us hope :)
@@safarjunaid6828 Funny enough I remember Andy was one of the two in the last challenge, George clearly favored the other dish but he and Matt were so impressed with how Andy finished his job early and helped the other guy that they decided to keep both.
I think he's a great judge! The old judges surely had their weak moments and made their mistakes during their early chef years, but we don't get to see hours of video documentation of that. Andy's expertise is easy to compromise because we know he hasn't been always perfect. He's had lots of time to improve after season 4.
He didn't even know the cuisines, the machines. But he did something beyond any common/normal human. He learnt there in such a really short time n won. The best thing is people there didn't look down on him bcz he's an electrician, They admired him(even tho he's messy). People like him is rare. He's now judge of Amina n Ben.
This only shows how much someone can improve. He worked hard to get where he is now! Sure, all the contestants in MasterChef this season are all good.. Most of them have years of experience, so is Andy. It's been 8 years since he won, I'm he has done a lot to hone his skills in those years. ❤️
Jl HP I see I see. They mentioned it at the start of the new season and I tried to figure out if it was him or his restaurant (or what the appropriate terminology even is)... either way still an accomplishment for him but thanks for the clarification!
I love him!! I love him and ben during season 4.!! I am so proud of him for what he has become. I pray for More blessings and success to both benny and andy!
I used to hate him and thought very little as him as a winner and initially as a judge. He had a huge ego and very little constructive feedback. BUT he has changed my mind in the last few weeks and I actually really enjoy having him on the show. He’s settled in well and really found his stride. You proved me wrong Andy, good job!
I agree - his style is different from Melissa or Jock, but I think they all have a slightly different approach and a great dynamic. He may not give super critical feedback other than "that was a BANGER" but he just seems like a really cool guy and he's improved so much it's amazing
Look man this is years ago .. he is a bloody good chef now with 5 restaurants ..look at the ratings of his restaurant .. this guy seriously improved as a chef and is now one of the best in Australia!
This is a testament. I wasn't sure if he'd make a good judge. I had never seen him as a contestant before. It just goest to show, with dedication and determination how much a person can grow. Wow. I'm in awe. A few episodes in and the friendship with Jock, I started to see why Jock liked him. Jock was special and saw the best in everyone. R.I.P. Jock.😢
@@srijaniroychowdhury7683 Indeed! I’m not the type of person to lie for internet points, it’s just this video popped into my recommendations and I thought I’d comment on it! I haven’t really met him much, but my Grandmother (His Aunt) loved watching season 4
It's actually a well-established ruse in Australian culture: the carefree (white male) larrikin. If you observe Australian media culture you'll see this character pop up in many different contexts. A common one is to start as a comedy duo and make their way up the entertainment ladder, from radio to TV hosting etc. It's a very easy card for a good-looking Aussie bloke to play because they pretty much get given a whole lot more leeway for otherwise stupid behaviour. It's a harder card for women to play, although someone like Rebel Wilson has definitely broken the mould. The same affordances are not extended to men from different cultures who would be judged extremely harshly for being so willfully dumb.
Andy is truly talented! No one can come this far all by fluke. He's got a great heart and he's effortlessly funny. There's no reason to show hate on him, except if you're jealous thinking he's not talented, got many pals and got lucky :))
I remember this season very clearly. Ameena (and a few others) were lightyears ahead of Andy. But Andy was "Australian", white, young and good-looking as hell, and the Producers' brief to choose the top 3 seemed very very clear for so many seasons. Hope the channel and its Producers have moved beyond their biases now. The current lot of judges do seem more fair and impartial than the previous lot. Also soooo much less arrogant, which is a welcome relief. Andy makes a great judge - positive, encouraging and a lovely bloke in general.
