Why are they talking about Chowhound? Do they mention Yelp, too?

I would like to add most of Rachael Ray's "vocabulary" to this list, please.

The Ultimate Chowhound Smackdown Challenge

So, members of Chowhound wrestle?

Yeah, it's getting really, really old. Did they suddenly pull over most of TNT network fans when WWF got boring?

I would like to add "BAM" to the list of things that other shows should stop appropriating from the Food Network.

Also, even though I'm a fan of Iron Chef, I'm getting sick of "whose (word that rhymes with cuisine) reigns supreme?"

All I want is for people that know what they are talking about (like Tony Bourdain) and who can say what they are thinking (like Tony Bourdain).

Not on Food Network, but his show "No Reservations" is good - and the episode when they were trapped in Lebanon during unexpected military activities, may be the best hour of TV I can name.

My wife and I watch Food Network so we can learn more about food and cooking. Rachel Ray gives us gas.

I would totally watch that show. I would.

I have a problem.

I love Food Network for 'Ace of Cakes' and 'Good Eats' alone, and 'Iron Chef' and 'Chopped' are pretty good too. I've been known to watch the Food Network Challenge, also. Hell, it's a pretty good network, but yeah, they need a wider vocab.

<3 Duff Goldman so much, though.

Tell me you wouldn't pay to see some Chowhound users smacked around.

Damn, I wish you were running the Food Network. And now it's not just because I know you'd find a way to involve robots and death matches.

Well, at least they didn't say "food-venture."

I watch if they'd do a show about a food enthusiast from a small, exotic country exploring the cuisine of North America.
