new show on food network

I saw the very beginning and the very end. I think they might be getting a little too cute with the ingredients . . . I mean, you know one of the four contestants is a pastry chef, but the first course's protein is . . . octopus? Also, Ted Allen is at his best when he's being Ted Allen, spontaneously. He looked really uncomfortable making all the 'chop' jokes and puns that someone else wrote. He either needs to play it like lives hang in the balance--like, say, 'the Chairman' on Iron Chef America--or, practically winking at the camera--like Alton Brown on Iron Chef America. Going for serious but not buying it makes me not buy it either.

 

Peace

I have an idea for a Food Network Show but have never put enough energy into finding out how to pitch it...

 

Fish Out of Water would be the shows name....the concept is to take Rich folk to backwoods nasty looking places with great food and backwoods rednecks to 5 star places...of course they cant know where they are going just that they are going....might even make it a bit

like throwdown in that they think they are filming something else and its not about the food

:wacko: Sort of like Wife Swap? That would make great television indeed. Imagine some snooty broad complaining about the decor and some hillbilly wondering what the hell to do with an oyster fork.

I've tried to watch these shows and can't get into them. Too American Idol for me. Does anyone really believe that ass wipe on Hell's Kitchen would not be killed, gutted and braised of it was really reality TV?

 

I do like to watch coverage of competetive BBQ. :wacko:

+1.....I think Guy has the best shows on the FNC......Triple D is awesome :wacko:

 

Yeah, I do like Triple D. That's a sweet gig he's got, but I hope he purges after all the diner food he downs. Guy will be lucky to be alive after just a few years eating like that.

Do not compare Hell's Kitchen to Top Chef. Top Chef has competitors who really work as chefs in fine restaurants. Hell's Kitchen grabs the bus boy from Denny's whose IQ hovers around 72. I can't watch Hell's Kitchen because there is no way the "chefs" on that show could ever run a restaurant.
