Do people really like it when an obnoxious retard yells at them while they watch him watch food being made and then eat it?

Probably not, but he drums up business for them, so they just grit their teeth and bear it.

>> No.5053659

Not really.

I do like watching it for the restaurants, however. The middle seasons were the golden years, when they stopped going to the straight-up greasy spoon diners with frozen chicken fried steak, but before they got all artsy Bourdain-wannabe with their DSLR cinematography and hipster-ass restaurants. During those golden years they went to a lot of interesting spots with weird, idiosyncratic recipes and techniques that you don't see in cookbooks. The food just looked fucking delicious, but it was presented without pretense.

I think I'd like Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives even in spite of Guy Fieri hosting if they'd just let the fucking cooks explain their recipes step-by-step without Guy constantly interrupting to make faces at the camera and shout ingredients he recognizes like a fucking 5 year-old.

And it wouldn't hurt if they'd actually visit a Drive-In or two.

The show is possibly the only one on Food channel anymore that actually showcases food. He's an okay host, sometimes bad sometimes good.

This, so much. I would love the show if it was someone I enjoy watching like Justin Warner, the guy who won FNS and never got his own show because MUH ORIGINALITY. Fieri can die a slow, painful death though, and it couldn't happen soon enough.

some of his early seasons of triple D are pretty entertaining and a lot of the recipes featured are pretty good. I've watched some of his recent ones and he's fuuuuuucking annoying and has gotten considerably fat.

Other than that, I don't think he's that bad: he seems pleasant and honest and a lot of his one liners and catch phrases are most likely food network's decision to keep the show going.

I still refuse to watch Guy's big bite: that shit is annoying and all of his recipes are like what a college kid would make if that college kid was loaded.

>> No.5056652

>>5053659

his very first seasons where him just going to "yep. thats a burger." style resturants and he focused on some of the staff in the kitchen: which no one cares about.

but season 3-10 were where you find out how to make raviollis and burger buns, stuffed burgers, pies, etc all of these really cool recipes for Italian and Mexican food. Plus he cracked some jokes that weren't fuckall annoying, and the staff generally liked him because he wasn't physically and marketing wise huge, he was just a normal dude.

Then, there must have been a producer change because now its just him pokin' his fingers in half prepared food, talking about flavortown and he looks fat as fuck. and yeah, those recipes look pretentious as fuck: I saw one episode with pretzel and cheese sauce served at 4 star resturant, and thinks like bean-corn cakes with 15 ingredient reduction, organic infused, consume vinegrete, fruit medley glaze dressing etc.

smh @ this thread.

He's successful. Rich. Doesn't live with his mom...like you lot. Seems like a lot of you types hate him because he's what you will never be. A winner. Also, he DOES cook, just not on Diners. He's developed his own unique, electic pan-Americana style of cooking. I doubt any of you have developed a unique cooking style - since it seems perusing this board all you eat is Taco Bell and ramen. Sorry you won't be successful in your miserable lives. Maybe if you start to accept that others can be successful despite not following your hipster food rules you will be happier.

Guy is an alright guy. He's an actor, an entertainer. I don't think he's really like that in real life, the Guy on tv is sort of a character he's acting out.

He's sort of a douche but the show is entertaining and its good for bringing business to restaurants and learning about good places to go.

Holy shit are you me? The only other thing they watch is the small claims court. Those Pawn Faggots are the biggest jews though.

On topic though, yeah that guy is an asshole. He only ever compliments the food to no end which only makes it sound average after an episode since apparently everything to him is fantastic.

I wouldn't mind him so much if he weren't the ONLY thing on the Food Network besides the occasional Rob Irvine yells at poor people with shitty restaurants. I used to love watching Marc Summers with Unwrapped on the weekends or one of their many food game shows. There's almost NOTHING worth watching on there anymore.

The Aphrodite / Venus tattoo on his forearm is actually pretty good - I had a similar idea but had to shelve it once I found out Fiery did it. Basically a mix of the painting of the birth of Aphrodite and a tradition Our Lady of Guadalupe.
