I'm a huge fan of Kristen from Top Chef. I think she's genuine and down to earth. She seems very sweet and just an all around nice person. I don't understand why people say she has no personality. I'm glad she's not obnoxious like most reality personalities.

When she talks, I believe what she's saying. It's nice to have a younger female voice in a TV genre that's loaded with white men. When she eats, I want to eat it. I'm not saying they are breaking down new walls but it's nice to see that they get active and do more than just eat or talk about life's problems or see the same old sights.

It's refreshing to see a more youthful active approach to activities - some of the Travel Channel shows are so boring. Just see the same sights and never do anything interesting. I've only watched a few episodes and I will definitely watch the entire series.

Also, I'm not sure if people understand what real Valley Girl accents are but they need to take a trip to Santa Monica or something to get the real gist. Saying "cool" and "awesome" doesn't make you Valley Girl. It makes you American.
