Anyone else just love this show?

It stars Bobby Flay, and he goes all around the U.S. showing regional cuisine specialties.

Last night's show featured Chicago and its ethnic foods. Fun and educational!
 
I am completely addicted to FoodTV. Bobby Flay is not my favorite, but I will watch. Now, give my a Tyler Florence marathon, and I will be glued to the set. He is just so cute!
 
I saw the show last night. I think Bobby is OK. It's nice to see all the regional cuisines. I used to like the show with Gordon Elliot, where they would just pick someone off the street and make a gourmet meal with whatever they had in the house.:)
 
I love FoodTV! I’ll watch almost any of the shows. I like Bobby Flay, but probably wouldn’t eat much of the food on the show – I’m just a real picky eater. My favorite programs are Food Finds, Sweat Dreams, and Unwrapped. There’s also a guy I’ve seen on the weekends that creates things with chocolate that I watch sometimes.


I’d like to see what Gordon Elliot could make with the food he finds in my house: Spaghetti-O Surprise!
 

Me too. I love the TV Food Network and Bobby is sooooo cute. One of my other favorites is Rachel Raye's 30 Minute Meals, She is always so happy and has the cutest laugh.
 
The most unusual show on food TV is A Cooks Tour. This guy will eat and drink anything. I just love that show!

Friday nights at 9:30 . Give it a try. My favorite was his trip to Mexico. What a hoot.

Well, I LOVE the Food channel, but Bobby isn't my favorite personality. He seems... I don't know... full of himself. I'm not saying he IS, but he comes off that way, and it turns me off.

I love both of Rachel Ray's shows, and I do like her, but MAN does she talk with her hands alot!!! LOL!!! It's so funny to watch her.

I love Unwrapped and Emeril. I didn't used to like Emeril, but he totally grew on me. Now I get such a kick out of watching him!

A Cook's Tour is a fun show to watch. I can't believe what that dude eats. Gross!!! I saw the one to Mexico a while ago. That was sooooooo funny! '

And that Oliver guy... I can never understand him. I'm not trying to be mean, and I'm NOT picking on his accent, but he is so hard to understand that I can't watch.
 
That Oliver kid is kind of cute, though, isn't he?

I love Cook's Tour, too, but it's hardly ever on. The guy who hosts that show is a major babe.
 
I don't like Bobby Flay. He gets on my nerves. Give me Tyler Florence or Emeril any day.:) I love to watch Sara and Jamie, and Rachel too. Rachel cracks me up. She talks about as fast as she chops! I'd be missing some fingers if I tried to do both at the same time.:p She reminds me of my SO's niece (Rachel looks like an older version of the niece).
 
i am NOT a bobby flay fan for the reasons mentioned above.

i am in love with tyler florence though. and of course, alton brown. :)
 
Alton Brown! I forgot about him! I love his show. I always learn so much. I'm bummed I missed his "stranded on an island" show.

JJ - Yeah, Oliver is kinda cute in a quirky way. I just wish I could understand what the heck he says! LOL!
 
How on Earth could I have forgotten about AB???? He is just the best!
 
A Cook's Tour is my favorite new show on any channel. Also I highly recommend the host's book "Kitchen Confidential", which is a must read for anybody that ever worked in the food service industry.

Good Eats is good even though Alton Brown is a "Mr. know-it-all".

I can't watch Jamie Oliver ever since I saw an episode in which he was drinking cappuccino and there was this glob of foam hanging on his big fat lip. His tongue is too big for his mouth and I think he spits when he talks. I can't think about all that mess when I'm watching a food show.

And I agree with the anti-Bobby Flay crowd. He is stuck-up and rude. And when he won his second match against Morimoto it was obviously fixed (and I'll say it to his face if I ever see him in the street)

LOL!!!
 
I really like Unwrapped. That's a fun show. Emeril Live is a lot of fun too. I've only seen Foodnation once so the jury is still out on that one :)
