BrokenOx, I'm glad to know I'm not the only one... Go Marc! And go silly, awesome food show! I think one of the reasons I like it so much is that it reminds me of that old Sesame Street clip about how crayons are made. When I was a kid I thought that was the Coolest. Thing. Ever. (Okay, so maybe I still do.)

Did anyone catch Dave's premiere? It totally slipped my mind. The recipes online don't sound too appetizing, but maybe I'll change my mind after I see him in action.
I made the spicy ribs this evening from Jamie Oliver's show (not sure if it was Naked Chef or Oliver Twist, but he was cooking for a few actors). They came out terrible. I had to completely re-season and recook them. The family was pissed I ruined an entire package of ribs.
I love Unwrapped, too, except for when the company has too many secrets. I hate when you're following something down the conveyor belt and it cuts away so the product can go through some super secret process. The worst one I saw was the factory that makes single-serve ketchup/mustard/mayo packets. The entire process took about 1.2 seconds. The Tyson chicken tenders was the best. Those things get dipped and re-dipped and fried and baked and flash frozen and all kinds of cool stuff. Heaven.

I finally caught a repeat of Lieberman's show. His recipes look pretty good and very easy, but the way he speaks annoys me. I hate when people abbreviate "I am going to" as "Ungunna." He does it quite frequently. "Ungunna mix the beans with the onions." "And then ungunna bake it for 20 minutes." He seems pretty comfy in front of a camera and even though it's not as "food porny" as I'd like, I'll probably tune in again.

Love it or hate it. The episode of Unwrapped that highlighted classic candies on this past Sunday night was enjoyable.
I especially liked seeing the collection of the one gentleman they highlighted.

I bought Good Eats, Season 1-3 for TTMR's birthday. The best part is an added segment where Alton answers questions from viewers. It gives him a chance to add some snarky goodness. I'm thinking particularly of the one where he braised a pot roast using just tin foil. The viewer asked, "Do I really need to use two sheets of heavy duty tin foil?" Alton exhaled, looked at the camera and said, "Did I say that you needed to use two sheets of tin foil? Then you need to use two sheets of tin foil!"
I have committed Emeril to the pits of eternal hellfire for introducing the phrase "Kick it up a notch" to my Hungarian father-in-law. Now EVERYTHING is "kicked up a notch." Did he add some extra garlic to a recipe? It's been KUAN. Did he add some fabric softener when he washed the sheets? Now they're KUAN. It's like fingernails on a blackboard everytime he says it.

This photo is from a cooking demonstration a few months ago but can anyone explain why Rachel is cooking in a bikini top.

Because she is a famewhore, who would do anything to have Martha's empire.
Plus, she's on crack.

Plus she wants to show people she's not fat? Or is she just sucking in so we see abs?

I didn't need to see that esp. after purposely avoiding the CEMJ thread for the day. This photo is from a cooking demonstration a few months ago but can anyone explain why Rachel is cooking in a bikini top.
