Anyone watch it? There are lots of good shows on there, but I prefer the competition ones. My faves are: Chopped, Chopped Allstars, Sweet Genius, and Worst Cooks In America.

In the words of the Iron Chef challenge host:

"Allez cuisine!!!"

That's the only show I've really watched so far - oh, and Rachael Ray's show where she eats for $40 a day in different cities.

I've heard all sorts of stuff about Bizarre Foods - anyone watch that?

But I do watch Bizzare Foods. Ray's show is great, but she is a cheap tipper. I watch Iron Chef also.

Sunday is the first round in the new Chopped All Stars. It's the Iron Chef edition. I never thought they would let Iron Chefs do Chopped, because it might make them look bad.

It was cool watching Iron Chefs screw up.

The Chopped judges are on this week (Sunday at 9 pm EST). They can dish it out (pun intended), but can they take it?

lol!

My daughter loves to watch those shows where the "expert" restruanteers go and fix commoners messes.

I dont know the names, but one guy is so mean!!

I do browse the channel, but I am so infatuated with Anthony Bourdain and Andrew Zimmern, I just cant break away!

Funny, many years ago, when I was pregnant with my 24 year old, working in a drive thru bank, my doc cleared me for ONE glass of wine after 6 months gestation. So I would get off work at noon, rush home, prop my swollen feet up, enjoy my ONE glass of wine and watch The Frugal Gormet on PBS>

Ahhhhhh the memories!

Youre probably talking about Robert Irvine *SWOON*

He seems mean sometimes, but he just tells it like it is and i've seen other indications that he's a big softie
Also, he's pumping up the attitude and drama for the show

What a babe.

Or Gordon Ramsay. I like him too. & yeah, he's a d*** too.
I'm sure in regular life he's a good guy.

Irvine's attitude keeps the show exciting, the drama is fun

And he can't exactly get people to change by being nice.

He couldn't do it without his designer and builder, though.

Randall, I love, love, love all those cooking shows too! It is Gastro Porn - esp love the up-close & slow-mo shots when they are plating & you see the sauce drizzling down....Those guys are all such talented artists...cooking is pure ART in day to day life!
