Guy Fieri On Dinner Impossible (w/ Video)
![]() |
If you read this website, you know I’m not Guy Fieri’s biggest fan. I’ve long considered him to be one of the phoniest people on television, but aside from the fact that he over-enunciates his fake Italian last name and walks around every day wearing Christian Slater’s wardrobe from Gleaming The Cube, I never really had any concrete proof to back up my humble opinion that he was a humongous douchebag. That is, until now.
A few weeks ago, Guy asked Robert Irvine and the Dinner Impossible crew to help him throw a holiday party for the Boys & Girls Club in his hometown of Santa Rosa, California. I must say, Robert impressed me. He went all out. He brought in amusement park rides, coordinated the efforts of dozens of volunteers, and even found time to have snow made so the kids could enjoy a sledding run (which was no easy task in the 80 degree California sun, I might add).
Before long, though, the Dinner Impossible crew found themselves running into all sorts of problems trying to cook the food for the party. They only had 2 small ovens, which weren’t even heating properly. During crunch time, it really looked like they weren’t going to be able to get all of the food cooked… and that would have meant disappointing hundreds of kids.
Here’s where it gets ridiculous: Robert remembered one of Guy’s nasty restaurants was nearby, and casually asked him if the Dinner Impossible crew could use some of its oven space since it was only 5 minutes away. AND GUY FIERI SAID NO! He actually said no! And he seemed disgusted that Robert even asked. Guy awkwardly mumbled something about it being dinner rush at his restaurant (at 4 pm?!) and told Robert it was out of the question.
The real question is, who the hell is rushing Fieri’s restaurant at 4 PM? The entire cast of Cocoon?
This is a humor site, but honestly, there was nothing funny about this incident. It was just upsetting. So many people spent so many hours working so hard, and Guy Fieri was willing to risk the final outcome because he didn’t want to share his OVENS. How idiotic.
You want to know why I hate Guy Fieri? This is why. He’s full of shit. He’s a poser. He wanted to be perceived as someone who was doing something nice for his community, but when push came to shove, he couldn’t even stand to have his restaurant inconvenienced for an hour. That’s not charitable. That’s just disgusting.
I embedded some video footage below for your viewing pleasure. Alternatively, you can watch the entire episode by clicking here. (In case the oven incident didn’t make you want to punch him in the face, odds are his big black “probably overcompensating for a small penis” truck will).

Ok, while I am not a big fan of Guy Fieri despite the fact that I grew up in Healdsburg, 10 minutes north of Santa Rosa, and my dad used to be his accountant and bookkeeper, did it even occur to you that MAYBE the producers/Robert staged that thing to add to the drama and stress of the show?
Who cares if the drama was fake? That’s not the point at all. Fake drama or not, he was totally unwilling to make a tiny sacrifice for the greater good of the event.
Jill I am a huge Guy Fieri fan. And it pains me to say this but I agree with you this time. I saw the episode last week and commented to my husband how awful it was that he would not let them use his restaurant to help out. I was disappointed. It should not matter if he was asked to use the restaurant ovens at 2 PM or 6 PM. A favor is a favor and a sacrifice is a sacrifice. I think Guy was just trying to look good for the cameras here but at the end of the day he just didn’t want to be bothered. Sigh.
There is very little reality in these “reality shows” – I don’t work for Food Net but I work in cable TV an can assure you that the Guy Fieri was following a script here. The producers wanted to add drama – give people a reason to talk about the show. And here we are.
Love your site btw!
I’ve been working in television for 30 years so I have a bit of experience here to back my statement up as well. Yes, producers obviously want to add drama and excitement, but they would never do that at the expense of the talent. And why would Guy Fieri follow a script that made him look like The Grinch? Refusing to do something to help kids on Christmas? For a project he supposedly initiated? Come on. I’m not buying it. A jerk is a jerk.
Thanks Gayle. I stopped watching that episode after his comment, so as part of the general public I do not know how that made for good TV. Who in the hell would have scripted that?!
K, so I love commentary as much as the rest of us but this seems over the top. Come on! They all work for the same company. This was all part of the ‘drama’ that is Robert Irvine’s show. I’m trying to love your site, but how can you not see that?
I have to defend Jillian. Even if this might of been done for drama’s sake, you could of still added drama into the show in a different way. Something else could of been malfunctioning, or some rotten meat/vegetables or maybe a lack of produce. But nope, Fieri decided just to be a bigger prick.
If you watched the entire episode, you’d see it was already dramatic enough far before Irvine asked Fieri for help. As a viewer, I believed they were LEGITIMATELY STRUGGLING to get the food cooked. Whether they actually were or not, I believed they were screwed.
I don’t think Irvine was scripted. I think he saw an easier way out (Fieri’s ovens) and wanted to utilize it, like any person would want to do. I don’t think Irvine thought Fieri would say no. Because seriously, who could say no to such a simple request? Unless of course, Fieri had something to hide and his kitchen restaurant is a shithole that he didn’t want captured on television.
Just a thought.
Of course it was staged… stop taking reality shows seriously, folks.
This is the same guy outed for being a fraud, right? And Robert was too.
I couldn’t agree more. If i saw that effing douche walking down the street I would have the urge to junk punch him as hard as I possible could. I saw his stupid tour bus thing in the city once walking back from lunch and only managed to throw my V8 at it wasn’t as dramatic as I wanted it to be. However I do want to see a dinner impossible that somehow incorporates Sandra Lee… I would dedicate a tablescape and cocktail combo to that shit!
Junk punch!! Haha SlappinBitches!!
A-hole.
I have a lot of issues with Guy Doucheittie, but that was just how he came off in general. Now, when he’s trying to look like the Saviour, and he want even help those who are helping him — what a cock.
Whether the producers cooked it up or not — he still looks like a prick. His prickliness trumps Roberts fakery for the Who Rides The Firepole To Hell contest.
i saw this on tv and thought that was a crap thing to do by Gee Feietti. how do you know it was at 4:00 though?
I saw this episode, and there were 90 minutes on the clock when Irvine asked Ferry to use his restaurant. Assuming a 5:30 to 6 PM dinner time it would have been 4 PM when he was asked.
According to the local paper, this thing was filmed at a place some 10 minutes away from Guy’s closest restaurants in Windsor and Santa Rosa (20 minutes, round trip). On a Thursday. Neither of those places are busy at 4pm on a Thursday.
But in any case, scripted or not, the whole thing did make Guy come off as a total douche (big surprise?).
Regular readers here know I’ve met up with Guy several times over the past year+. And each time he’s never failed to impress with what a complete arsehole he can be.
(In all fairness, except towards my daughter, to whom he’s been really very cool on a couple of occasions.)
Ohhh Jill. I wondered why you didn’t post about this 2 weeks ago when I first saw this episode.
Who gives a shit if the drama was exaggerated? Who gives a shit if it was dinner rush or not? That’s not an excuse. Fieri was asked to sacrifice something, for a good cause, and he couldn’t be bothered. THAT IS THE ISSUE PEOPLE.
Guy is a total d-bag. This should prove it for anyone who was on the fence.
And we’re shocked by this? He’s 40-something, wears bowling shirts like he’s KOOL, bleaches his hair and wears his sunglasses backward like guys didn’t even dare do when I was in college (and I’m only 29). He clearly thinks he’s KING…I want him to listen to Tom Petty’s “It’s Good to be King”…yeah, he’ll be KING when DOGS have wings! He’s a douche bag AND a cunt, a special and yet hard combo to acheieve.
Wow. Usually when there’s a show like this, the people involved go all out to get the job done.
But not Guy. Oh no. Not Mr Dimwits, Drop-outs, and Douchebags.
Way to show those kids how much you care.
Even if that scene was “staged”, why the hell would Food Network want to stage drama that makes one of their cooks look like a super douchebag? Did that air that scene because the camera wasn’t running when Guy kicked a couple puppies and slapped Sarah McGlaflin across the face?
I also can’t stand Guy, just because he is so fake nice all the time. If you’ve ever seen his crappy diners show, just realize that most of those places are nothing special, at least from my experience with the ones myself and friends have been to in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. I realize it is a fluffy, PR-type show, but he never has anything good to say on the Ultimate Generic Chain Appetizer Show Extravaganza either.
I’m with you about the places he reivews being nothing special. I’ve eaten at a couple that he showcased and meh! No need to go back. I have no doubt that some are great, but for some, there’s a reason they’re called dives!!
I watched that episode when it first aired and thought…Now wait, Guy knows this event is going to happen, he knows the Boys & Girls Club is like -what did they say 5 minutes from one of his restaurants – and he couldn’t plan ahead a little, say close his restaurant for one lousy afternoon so Dinner: Impossible could film there? Besides, it would have given him a chance to expose himself – er, his restaurant – on national television.
“It would have given him a chance to expose himself – er, his restaurant – on national television.”
Maybe that’s what he was afraid of. His restaurant kitchen getting exposure. Perhaps there could have been all sorts of health code violations going on back there that he wouldn’t want being captured on camera.
I agree – he probably didn’t want the world to see how nasty his restaurant kitchen really is.
On second thought, I guess he just wanted to showcase how busy his restaurant is.
When will FN FINALLY wake up?! I am so tired of the whole thing .Maybe if enough people stop watching – but it’s like a car accident you are rubbernecking, you can’t help but look.
That was ridiculous. It’s like no one wants to admit how lame and obnoxious he really is because FN has to dilute themselves into thinking that he’s so cool and generous. It makes you wonder what they really think of Fieri. Of course, it’s probably nothing they would dare admit because it would pop FN’s bubble of perfect people and perfect food.
I can’t even get past that day-glo hair and those totally unnecessary glasses wrapped around his big, fat head. I could have turned the sound off on that clip and I would have still come away from it hating Guy Ferry. Look, I grew up in a small town where little men drove big, black trucks and did everything in their power to look cool, no matter how ridiculous. IOW, a town full of Guy Ferrys. If any of them had ever had the good fortune to gain wealth and fame, they would have looked and acted just like Guy. And they wouldn’t have shared their ovens either. Guy, you suck.
Guy Fieri (Ferry) is a douchbag.
(for the google indexes)
Such an asshole.
wow. this pissed me off so much i went to the food network fan page on facebook and shared the video.. then made sure to mention i like this site better than the food network. *grins*
but honestly, that is douchebaggiest at its best. i hope his resturant gets over run by old rats that impersonate itialian americans that bleach their hair and wear ugly clothing and inhabit those ovens until his restaurant closes.
I’m with y’all on this one. I didn’t see the entire episode, but I did see that part, and I was taken aback. Actually, I was waiting for him to say he was just kidding, but then I realize he wasn’t and that was the end of the show for me. Dinner rush or not, that was the WRONG answer.
Dear Guy Fietti,
Fuck you.
Crapfully yours,
JaySticLe
Just when you thought he couldn’t sink any lower in his own “Douchedom”. So glad you commented on this Jillian! For a couple weeks there I thought you were just being really generous with your XMAS spirit! Staged for what? Opening the doors of his eatery to do a kind thing. Wow, if there were any customers there I am sure they would have been overcome by his graciousness and able to swallow their food and pay their outrageous bill and feel a little better about doing so. Guy is a Puke!
Has it occurred to anyone to ask themselves exactly WHY Guy Douchieri WOULDN’T want his restaurant shown on TV?!?!?
He was probably afraid to show his shithole of a hash dump for all the world to see. Things that make you go “hmmmmmmmmm…”
Hadn’t thought of that…
If this guy wears sandals in kitchens, licks and sticks his fingers into food being prepared AND wears those disgusting rings that trap bacteria as he is preparing food ON TV, God knows what happens in the kitchen when there are no cameras around.
Let’s not forget the greasy hair (I’m sure Guy wouldn’t be caught dead wearing a hairnet!) or those omni-present sunglasses on the back of his slimy neck. Eeewww!
There are 2,690 Google hits for, “Guy Fieri is a douchebag.”
That’s funny. And well deserved.
That’s all?
What a total dick. When Robert first asks him how far his restaurant is, he eagerly says, “5 minutes”, as if you expect him to say, “how can I help? Want me to go get something?” But when he hears what Robert wants, he shuts down.
I agree with the above poster who said, even if FN had a hand in this & wanted to stir up some drama, WHY would they want one of their stars to wind up looking like a selfish ass? That doesn’t add up.
Sorry to say, Guy, but your attempt to look big-hearted backfired on you, and in a pretty ugly way.
Hey, and did everyone notice how as the challenge progressed, Guy became more and more of an obtrusive prick? He was rude and mouthy because he realized he was so totally out of his element and OWNED. Ok, not that Robert isn’t a Grade A bastard on most occasions but it was funny to see Guy FAIL.
Guy may co-own a restaurant or two, but I wouldn’t want to eat anything touched by his fat greasy hands. Of course he’s out of his element. Robert at least can cook.
Yes I did and I was kind of surprised . I mean, hey, it’s Irvine’s show, not yours, and you’re just there to assist and it’s for a good cause and supposed to be fun. Did you notice at one point Guy said under his breath to Robert “you’re a clown” – now is that the pot calling the kettle black, or what?
Maybe Guy’s used to being the ‘hero’ in these local charity events in his neighborhood, and Irvine stole his thunder? And maybe FN concocted the whole event and he had no say in the matter?
No matter. He behaved badly. Poor example for the kids, too.
Since everything IS staged, who was the idiot who had Guy come off like a douche? Maybe someone at FR is trying to sabotage him! Any other host they’d have say, “Sure! I’ll be happy to donate the use of my ovens and anything else we need. It’s for the kids, after all!”
Of course, he IS a douche, but I meant to ask who at FN would go to the trouble of making him look like an even bigger douche?
Guy ought to be spatchcocked!
I just love it when this asshole goes into fake laughter mode feigning hilarity at something that would draw just a smile from most everyone else.
The clapping of hands, the false guffawing.It’s fucking sickening to watch this porcine little fucker perform.The most disingenous act on TV.
I’d love to kick the little bastard in the nuts, I hate him that much.
(thumbs up) You made me laugh!
Ditto.
(and your comment was fucking hilarious BTW!)
Think maybe since Mr. Fairy’s gone ‘rock star’ he’s a do-gooder for his own exposure and little else?
Considering he was doing charity work, would anyone give a good damn if his restaurant was ‘up to par’ or not? It would be the last thing talked about. His refusal puts his true motives in question.
BTW, isn’t this the 2nd thing he’s done w/ Irvine? Didn’t he do a hidious kids’ lunch menu at a camp that no one liked?
If I’m not mistaken, that was supposed to be a “friendly” competition between the two of them. Irvine’s team played relatively harmless pranks on Fie-etti, while he did cute little things like sabotage Irvine’s equipment. Totally malicious. When someone does something like that over a competition that doesn’t even really matter, it tells you a lot about the way they really think.
I was wondering if anyone remembered that episode, I just hated to be the only one to admit watching it. It was really just stupid, turning off the gas tanks and shit like that. Honestly though, all this is just tv crap. Just makes a mockery of real people who are trying to help others.
Wow. When I first read the headline here, I assumed the story would be about Irvine’s alpha male aggression. But this is just awful. So petty. And I’ve never heard of a dinner rush at 4pm.
Fee-eddy is beyond douchebag category. Why don’t you hold a contest for the best new (limited to, say, 5 words) description for Fee-Eddy? What a jerk! He has an ego that trumps Donald by billions.
No wonder Candus Zanghi loves Guy Fieri!
Who?
Search the archives when you have a few spare hours. And prepare to laugh your ass off.
I was wondering, how the hell did this fellow become famous? I went to his restaurant’s website to try to figure out how it happened:
http://www.johnnygarlics.com
Huh? I mean, look at that photo of “food” featured on the home page!! What IS that? It looks like a shiny fresh slug topped with last week’s onion rings or something. Eeeewww!
Between DDD (slobbering, finger licking, etc.), his phony, ridiculous outfit, his limited use of the English language (money! flavortown! bad boy!), his seeming lack of personal hygeine (grease being the operative word), and now this Boys and Girls club fiasco, HOW can food network keep him on the air???
New year’s wish: may an alien ship please take him for a long, long vacation to Flavortown – in a distant galaxy.
This website brought to you by the same people who said, “Guy Fieri is En Feugo,” “In an effort to provide as many fan photo’s with Guy, we provide a photographer at each RoadShow appearance” (read that first phrase. huh?) and also think that “destroyed” is spelled “distroyed.”
Moreover, they don’t know how to use a digital camera. http://www.guyfieri.com/guysightings.asp
Brain dead. That’s the ONLY logical explanation.
I love the “follow Guy’s rock and roll celebrity lifestyle” link. Who wouldn’t want to follow this no-talent greaseball’s “lifestyle”?
It looks like a reject from TGI Friday’s
you know, i started off hating guy fieri with the passion reserved for a thousand burning STD’s. then i caught a couple episodes of DDD and thought, “oh, hey, he seems like he might be cool. like a dorky uncle who shows up at family reunions and says unintentionally stupid but hilarious things” while grilling kielbasa. but after watching sunny anderson school him on that dispenser while on “big bite” and then his ridiculous and unnecessary “tour,” i realized, boy howdy, was i wrong. THIS only tops the icing of the crap cake that he is. oh my god. i hope someone stabs him with his own face shaped trivet. i’ll pay you good money to do it.
Fake or not fake: He’s still a douchetool.
I hate Guy as much as the next gal, but he doesn’t produce this show. I think the people who said it was staged are onto something. It’s not Guy’s show, it’s Robert’s. This way they created yet another obstacle for him to overcome so in the end it’s like “Oh look guys! Even though he had malfunctioning ovens and Guy’s restaurant was too ‘crowded’ to use their ovens, he still managed to get it done! How amazing was that!?”.
I also don’t get why they’d go out of their way to make him look like a total douche though…but it sure made Robert look good! Which is kind of the point.
Mary – lol! Thanks for the link to his restaurant’s website. What a hilariously awful site! The photo of the food is almost as bad as the photo of him. I can’t imagine any reasonably sane person going through the prints from a photo shoot, seeing that one and saying, “Yeah! Let’s go with this!”
Maybe he thought the maniacal expression exhibits culinary authority and the clenched fist shows is personable and approachable side? Also, what’s with the huge plate and tiny Mr. Ferry?
I saw this episode, and in addition to not letting Robert and Co. use his ovens, it was he was intentionally trying to sabotage the whole thing.
I’m not a big Irvine fan, but it is an entertaining show…except when Guy is on.
If you shorten it to Guy Fieri Douchebag, you get 16,900 Google hits.
He is such a tool. Please, no one watch his shows so they can FINALLY be canceled.
If you listen to the video again, he starts off by saying “I’m not…”
I’ve listed three possible things he might have wanted to say but didn’t:
“I’m not going to show you where I work buff boy.”
“I’m not going to let you bother the 2 customers eating at my restaurant.”
“I’m not going to let you cook your winner winner pizza dinner in my luvin’ oven.”
In Flavortown!
I have to agree with those who say it’s staged, just because I don’t think FN would have allowed something to air where
Guy was not meant to come off as a jerk and did.
Wait…..hold on a minute.
I thought you said that Fieeeee-ettttttie *invited* Irvine to come cook for a *KID’S* charity in Fieeeee-ettttttie’s home town.
And then I thought you said that Fieeeee-ettttttie told Irvine that Irvine couldn’t use Fieeeee-ettttttie’s equipment when Irvine hit a a glitch with his remote kitchen, so the kids wouldn’t get the promised dinner.
C’mon. Hitler wouldn’t have denied that request. SATAN wouldn’t have denied that request. Even Fieeeee-ettttttie would’ve done the right thing.
Oh. Wait. Noooooooo, really???? That WAS what you said?????
Hmmmmm. Douche doesn’t really even begin to describe that behaviour, now does it?
First off Irvine doesn’t do things he lies, takes credit and embellishes things. (That’s why he had to go away from TV for a little while.) Anything he did was most likely due to the whims of the producers.
Certainly it is a douche-bag move on Ferry’s part but again I can help but to think that the producers were tipped off about Irinve’s intentions. They then either wanted to add drama or didn’t want to go to Ferry’s restaurant. (Who can really blame them for that.)
This episode had Feiri driving around in a (presumably borrowed) huge monster truck. All I could think of was how cheesy it was… Trying so hard to impress the viewer with his tough-guy image.
What makes you think he borrowed it? It sounds like something he’d actually own.
Was it this truck?
http://www.trucktrend.com/features/scenes/163_0806_guy_fieri_celeb_drive/photo_02.html
If so, then yup. It was his.
The whole black theme just doesn’t seem to be Fieri’s style. His color palate would suggest something really gay like yellow or orange.
Guy’s shows will never be cancelled. Look at the crap that’s on FN now. What a difference compared to say, five years ago. We now have Guy and more Guy, the (get a room) Neeley’s, Claire 5 Ingredient Fix, Big Daddy, Ask Aida, and we still have Aunt Sandy and Rachel. And I see Melissa D’Arabian has a new season coming next month. Gag me. Her stuff is absolute barf. Paula (the witch cackle) Deen’s personality has gotten even more grating. And she’s everywhere hawking hams, frozen food and god knows what else. And all the holiday shows are repeats. I could go on and on. I sure don’t watch the FN channel like I used to!
Nothing but the Ass of Cakes or some stupid cake challenge every time I turn on the TV. FN is worthless.
Don’t forget Bobby Flay, Bob and Susie-appointed GOD of Food Network. With 6 or 7 shows that he’s on, I’ll be surprised if he does squeeze in some time for a sex life, if he has any. Now that Emeril and Mario are all but gone, Bobby Flay, PAWLA DEEN and Guy FI-ER-RE, which he never pronounces, will destroy a once value institution, just like what reality TV and underaged sex addicts are doing to MTV. Thank God for PBS.
Guy Fieri is the DOUCHE LORD!!!! Ungrateful piece of shit.
Oh come on, the whole point of the show is to have as many things go wrong as mechanically possible. Everyone of those shows has “something go wrong” (translate: everything) on purpose. Of course it as staged, and of course it was to add suspense to the show. The WHOLE THING WAS PLANNED.
i thought that fieri’s actions were in good intentions. he knew that the nastyness of his food that is cooked in his ovens would rub off on roberts and he didn’t want to do that to the kids.
Ok, I just about plotzed when I saw the Gleaming the Cube reference. Totally. I mean, *TOTALLY*
Good! I’m glad someone got it. I was beginning to worry. :)
How strange, I’m watching this episode now and happened to Stumble this. I totally agree about Guy. He’s so annoying and rude. I can’t stand him and his dumb sunglasses!
What’s truly pathetic is that anyone takes this stuff seriously.
Face it, people. The Food Network stopped being about food a long time ago. If you haven’t figured out what it is about now, you’re the perfect viewer. Dumb and dumber. You are exactly why Guy Fieri is so popular.
Psssst: Dinner:Impossible is reality TV. It’s not real.
jaynie57- Please tell us what’s it all about!
My Fiance and I commented on this at the time as well. Added Asshole moment would be Fieri completely forgetting the SCHOOL’S KITCHEN until after his even larger Douchebag moment. On the Next Guy’s Big Bite, Guy makes a bag of dicks then chokes on them!
Freaking douche! Those kids are actually lucky. They probably would have gotten food poisoning from eating food cook at his shiteous restaurant. There’s no telling how disgusting his kitchen is so perhaps this was a blessing in disguise.
I despise Guy FERRY.
I used to work for Guy in the mid-nineties and he was pretty much an ass. Back then he was a corporate control freak for Louise’s Trattoria. He didn’t have the bling, bleached hair or the laid back attitude. In fact, he loved to humiliate anyone who worked for him that had any personality.
I was not a big fan of Guy when I first saw him, what with the hair and his wardrobe and all, but after I watched him a few times I enjoyed him more. For one thing he has stage presence, and after all folks, we are talking about show business, not cooking shows. All of these so-called cooking shows are entertainment, nothing more, and those of you who watch them believing they are real life dramas, I have a bridge in Brooklyn that I want to sell you. I don’t care what anyone says, even those who claim to be in the business and say they are not scripted. Actually I believe Guy’s show Diners, Drive Inns and Dives is less scripted than Robert’s Dinner impossible. Just a little common sense people, if you are producing a show that is supposed to have an overall quality of suspense and drama and all that ever happened was that Robert quick witted his was through ever program who would watch it? The arguments and accidents, and yes even Guy’s refusal to let Robert use his ovens was part of the script. Come on, it’s called Dinner Impossible, not Dinner Whizz. Get a grip people, this is entertainment with food as the plot, nothing else.
