Ditto ... and Tyler Florence as well.
Is it just me or has FN taken a dive towards featuring more and more homosexuals on their programs. The newest one, who came from out of nowhere, is skater Brian Boitano. Oh brother ... who got him his own program? Bob Tuschman?
Yes I agree. I do think Tuschman is behind it. And Fogelson. I don't think it's just you. I think in the last few years they've taken a definite trend away from teaching us cooking, the how-to's, to more of a marketing bend (buy this, watch these guys eat), and more dumbing down (if you will) of the recipes and formats (open this can, already prepared foods). For example, Rachael Ray. I loved her. At first. Now she rubs me the wrong way. Gone are the Emeril's (it ain't rocket science, try this yourself) and Sara Moulton's and more with a technique based, teach us to fish way, to a 'watch' this and be entertained, we'll fish for you. And I still watch, but it's not the same.
