A reliance on food contest/reality show has brought about their decline. So much that they needed to create the Cooking Channel to go back to their core fundamentals and teach cooking again. Guy is just a result of all of this. He even broke through the FN ceiling via a reality show, not by being a respected chef with restaurants.

This is not unlike MTV moving away from music videos in the 90's (e.g. The Real World, Bevis & Butthead) and creating MTV 2 to show music videos. Then MTV 2 became the same as MTV 1.

Food Network UK is slowly turning into non-cooking based shows. Probably partly due to Guy.

Used to be actual cooking shows by people who would show you recipes, or go on an <insert country here> adventure where they show different cultures cuisine. These shows are core demographic material and the only reason I watch Food Network

Sadly they're being slowly being replaced by shit like DDD, Restaurant Stakeout, Chings Restaurant Redemption, Farm Kings, Mystery Diners etc and it sucks.

i learned how to cook as a kid by watching food network. it was the only channel on tv that actually offered some knowledge and ability to gain a skill.

they should've done shows that were like good eats but more in-depth with new food and food technology.

last time i was watching chopped, they had a bunch of fat teenage girls and a nervous, twitchy little effeminate boy. i know the saying of not trusting a thin chef or whatever but stop normalizing obesity and that boy spent more time on his hair than what he was cooking.

TV's just a creatively dead medium in the US. They learned at some point during the mid 2000's that they could just crap out reality garbage at the fraction of the cost of a good show and American swine will consume it even more voraciously. I don't think it helps that cable viewership is down year-over-year, either. Don't think you're gonna find much innovation in the TV space, now.

This is my defense of Guy Fieri

Basically, guy fieris douchebag appearance was designed so he could win next food network star, which he did. If playing a character like that would get you a lucrative career, wouldn't you do that? Prior to that he was a relatively successful restauranteur, which is not an easy task--he started Johnny Garlic's with very little startup capital (I think 100k?) and ended up turning it into a chain. The dude's got hustle, and if the world respects terminally uncool hustlers why can't they respect guy fieri?

Now take his show: a lot of food network shows focus around places that aren't necessarily accessible to your common man. Instead of focusing on exotic locales or high end gourmet places, guy focuses on American food that's within the reach of Americans.

I ran the numbers too. DDD is food network's top rated show among most of (what I can guess are) their key demos. People say they want smart cooking shows but surprise surprise people are full of shit.

His follow up show guys grocery games is about getting families to cook together using ingredients that are accessible to your average American consumer. How can you hate on that?

His restaurants aren't necessarily terrible in concept. He takes clasic American food and gives it a spin and a schticky name. Conceptually (the suff he does) it's actually a cool concept--exposing middle America to maybe new flavors they wouldn't otherwise experience The mediocre review was more about the shitty logistical failures of the staff, but how much of that is guy's fault really?

Lastly, he's an Oakland Raiders fan which is awe some

Seriously, man, when is he an asshole on his show? To me it looks like he makes all the people at the restaurants he visits feel at ease so they can let go, if they have some hardcore foreign accents he subtly repeats what they say so the viewers understand it without the need for subtitles, he has some cheeky things to say but they're never mean-spirited and he loves the food.

lol. just because you only experience things through 4chan, doesn't mean everyone does. i've been watching his show since it premiered, and my opinion of him hasn't changed. he's a douchebag who is fun to mock and laugh at, but he goes to good restaurants.

Pretty sure I'm not. But I never got tested.
You know what, maybe getting diagnosed with Autismal wouldn't be that bad, at least then I'd have something else than my own fucking personal failures to point to when I ask myself why I'm alone

Diners Drive Ins and Dives actually gives you recipes, though. It's a good show for Food Network while keeping it interesting.

Reality shows about Cakes are what started the downward spiral

I catch myself watching lesser cooking networks just for the sake of variety. I'd much rather see Martin Yan cook peasant food than Guy eating it.
Bobby Flay shows are only good when he loses and even Chopped is getting stale with that pretentious Indian woman with hubris as bad as Sanchez.

I.. I think it's just time to move on.

i was nearly drove over atleast twice every other month by the same guy(not fieri) next to a restraunt he reviewed.
not sure if the guy who kept trying to ran me over worked there (i've always thought he has cause i constantly saw his car in the parking lot) but knowing that a possible asshole got good reviews sucks ass.

Holy fuck this show was so good.

This guy did not give a good god damn about anything, he would just cackle gleefully and hit his big red button in the middle of the round and everyone to bake their cupcakes with gym socks or some shit.

What I hate most about Guy Fieri is that his presence is completely non-essential. Whether you love or hate Bourdain and Zimmern they at least provide a coherent narrative, while Fieri doesn't really do anything but shout catch-phrases, interrupt to shout out ingredients he recognizes, shove food into his mouth and make female cooks visibly uncomfortable. He doesn't really contribute anything to DD&D that any other paid actor off the street couldn't do.
