Food Network / Cooking Channel

wewon

Does anyone else watch these? If so, what are your favorite shows?

I like the Barefoot Contessa, Chucks Day Off and French Cooking at Home.

Suprisingly, a lot of the recipes are pretty healthy.

i stay away from those channels. they make me very hungry and since i would have to go to the store to get the ingrediants i end up impulse buying alot of crap i really don't need to be eating. i also prerecord my shows and fast forward through all the McDonald and Bk commercials.

I also love Contessa and French Food at Home!

hop3

bmmiller4

I don't watch any of the cooking shows...just had to say that I love your profile picture and wanted to say GO BOILERS!

I am not a fan of cooking so really avoid those shows like the plague!

sexygenius

thats food porn for me lol

MochaMixAZ

I watch - and I even tried out for the Next Food Network Star! LOL

I like 30 Minute Meals, Barefoot Contessa, and anything by Robyn Miller. I try to change up the recipes to keep them healthy, but they give me great ideas.

Dippydog

Challenge, Iron Chef, Ace of Cakes (love that).

I like Giada, and I like alot of the food Contessa makes but she annoys the holy hell out of me as a person--like half the show is devoted to table settings or some other ridiculous thing. And it's a level of pretension that even I, as someone whose friend's husband recently called a 'pretentious f*** (in a nice, funny, joking around way)', find irritating, lol. I love Iron Chef, Throwdown (though Bobby Flay can get annoying too), etc.

The Food Network is like foodie porn... I watch it all the time... especially the ones that cook stuff i can never eat... lol. But I also like to try and make healthier versions of the stuff I see on there.

I love Diners, Drive Ins and Dives, Iron Chef America, Food Network Challenge, Chef at Home, and i miss Paula Deen so much... "you can never have too much butter" so wrong but soo good... lol

P.S. Man vs Food is another show on another network I love!

OliveBruises

Hungry Girl on Cooking Channel is my fave!

My sisters kids love Man Vs Food!

They find the guy hilarious!

They get the biggest kick out of seeing him lose. :-(

We call Giada "Cooking with Cleavage". I really only watch Challenge and Iron Chef.

I get most of my food shows on the Travel channel. I Anthony Bourdain.

I love Chopped on Food Network, and Restaurant impossible. I am trying to get more into cooking (that way I have control over what we eat and how healthy it is) and those shows are intruiging.
I loved watching Worst Cooks in America, but that season is over now :-(

We call Giada "Cooking with Cleavage".

LOL!

I forgot, Chopped is my favorite of all time.

I like the ingenuity that it takes.

therobinator

I can get into most all of the shows, but....

I heart Alton Brown -- like, HEART him.

A lot.

It's kind of sick.

And Paula Dean, too (she's a dirty, dirty girl). Anyone else know what I mean about her - lol?

TheEnd10

Ellie Krieger has a lot of low cal recipies and I like Semi-Homemade with Sandra Lee. I love cooking with fresh ingredients, but sometimes there just isn't time. Sandra uses a lot of packaged items that she manages to pull together into good meals. And although I prided myself in watching no reality tv for a long time, I must admit that I am addicted to cooking challenges....Iron Chef, Chopped, Next Food Network Star.....the list goes on.

TripleJ3

I like Chopped, Restaurant Impossible.

I also like *****in' Kitchen and Nigella's shows. I used to really love Alton Brown but don't watch him as much anymore.

TripleJ3

lol.......Well the first word of the show I like that MFP bleeped rhymes with kitchen and starts with a B;)
