The Elusive New York Thumbs Up.

Because we sometimes don’t have the patience to wait for, never mind read, an actual review…we foolishly rely on New York Magazine’s goofy Approval Matrix — self described as: Our deliberately oversimplified guide to who falls where on our taste hierarchies.

That line immediately tells you  how pompous we are and that you can either be intimidated–as in–gosh those New Yorkers sure know everything about EVERYTHING. Or, you can giggle–as in–New Yorkers need to seriously lighten up.

In this week’s chart, Rachael Ray’s new daytime talk show landed flat in the middle between “despicable” and “lowbrow”, and slightly below “killer spinach” and Megan Mullally.

I talk a lot about Rachael Ray here, not because I’m the biggest fan of her work, in fact sometimes I find her to be exasperating; but because I admire her work ethic and her sense of drive.

If I had that same energy, I would imagine The Pet Set would have been a household name by now.

So, Rachael just know there is one New Yorker and thousands of New Jerseians pulling for you..”how great is that?!”

And if you get cancelled, there’s always “45-Minute Meals” :).
