does anybody torture themselves by watching this show? The food seriously looks AMAZING. Haven't changed the channel all day.

    I watch it often, hit up a place that was showcased for brunch on sunday. Was excellent.

    Fun show. Some people hate on Guy, but some people hate on kitties and puppies too.

    I don't know anything about the show. But I was on the same airplane as Guy. I didn't know who he was but had to ask after I saw him taking pictures and signing autographs.

    If I'm home alone during the day I tend to have foodnetwork on for background noise. Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives is pretty cool. There are things I'd like to try if I got the chance and some things seem like they're just begging to induce a heart attack...

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This on so many levels lol I love watching shows about food in general, especially if they have a traveling aspect, although most of the time it's torture because either I won't eat it cause it has animal products in it or it just looks so unhealthy I just won't put my body through it. But I still love watching them because there is a level of education to it. I like learning where all these different restaurants are, especially the ones from my are :)

    Well, it's only bad for his health if it's diet Coke.

    Having been to a couple of the places he did in his shows, you probably aren't missing much. Both were disappointments.

    It is definitely more geared towards guys, so I can see why you would hate it.

    I've had mixed results with places he's been to. Some of the places in Maine, stellar, MA.. suck *kitten*. Just depends. Had more hits than misses on the west coast though.
