I saw Guy's show and was rather underwhelmed. He still comes across as a bit too much of a yahoo for me.
And really: does dolling up Tater Tots count as a recipe? Even Sandra Lee would have been a bit embarassed.
I'm not sure the network has that much confidence in him either: 10am on a Sunday morning?
I didn't catch Guy's show...didn't think it was on so early in the AM. I'm not that worried about it honestly...
I am really lookig forward to Alton's new show. I really think it will be kind of like Good Eats, just in other settings. That's fine with me. He is a genius.
Nigella seems like a Giada type thing to me, but with a smaller head and maybe bigger boobs? Not sure.
I'm not sure either about Paula's show. It's like a southern Emeril live. Maybe. Yuck?
I did catch Guy's show. What a bore. I agree with james, the tater tot recipe? Gimme a break. I won't be watching it again.
I didn't realize the FoodNetwork had so many travel shows until your post. Wow. How many travel/food shows does one need?
Hey good to see ya back! I love your blogs! Man, I can't believe all these travelling shows! I guess the ratings are high for them, but it's not from me.
I totally want the English Muffin t-shirt.
Speaking of cooking show premieres, have you guys seen the Bloghungry pilot episode on bloghungry.com?!
