Food Network Humor ^ | Jillian Madison

Posted on 04/14/2011 4:43:29 PM PDT by EveningStar

It’s new show announcement time in the world of television! This year, there will be 12 new Food Network shows for us to lampoon. And sadly, it’s looking like a lot more of the crap people already can’t stand. Stupid new challenge shows. Stupid new “traveling around and eating” shows. And yes, even a stupid new Duff Goldman show. Sigh. Read it and weep from this Scripps press release:

"SUPERSIZERS: Series Premiere: January 2012"

Knock-off of the British "Supersizers Go", and "Supersizers Eat" series that aired in 2008 and 2009 respectively. I downloaded these two series from UK torrent sites. Excellent programs. Between the two, the periods covered were Medieval, Edwardian, French Revolution, Elizabethan, Regency, Restoration, Roman, Victorian, World War II, the 20's, 50's, 70's, and 80's.

We check out the Food Network and Travel Channel occasionally, when there isn’t anything else on (which is fairly often; especially toward the end of the week). Their stuff has gotten really bad. There’s no ‘Travel’ in the Travel Channel, and the FN has some of the most worthless ‘upscale’ oriented garbage I could imagine.

Oh crap! Not another F-ing stupid food challenge?

You know their fresh out of ideas when they have a Cup Cake Challenge!

Hey Foo Network, here’s an idea...how about some good old-fashioned cooking shows!

I’ve quit watching this lame network.

Only shows I watch on FN are Diners Drive Ins and Dives, Good Eats, and Unwrapped. Good Eats is the best.

There are some bad shows on the Food Network, but NONE comes close to that stupid “Hungry Girl” show on the Cooking Channel.

I actually looked online to figure out who she was...and as I suspected, she is married to a TV producer..it really was the only possible explanation. Last week, she had a show about pizza...where she suggested using tomato soup in place of sauce (GAG!!!); that was just before the segment where she made a pizza with a chicken crust...yes, chicken.

It’s like a car accident; it comes on, I grow more horrified as the show unfolds, yet I cannot look away.

Heck, even Alton Brown is helping, with his new four part series Feasting on Roadkill. Alton, and his motor cycle riding crew, set out to show Americans new ways to cope with todays tough economic times. In Episode 1, Alton combines frugality, with his love of gadgetry, to feed the entire population of Crab Apple Cove, Vermont, by rotissering a moose inside the drum of the concrete truck that killed it.
