NBC Shows Starring Food Network Hosts
Posted on March 15th 2010 by Jillian Madison

What the hell is going on over at NBC? First, they tapped Guy Fieri to host Minute To Win It (which was simply awful last night, by the way). And yesterday, news broke that Bobby Flay would be a judge on a new reality series called America’s Next Great Restaurant.

This is a disturbing trend, and we can only shudder at what future partnerships might arise between NBC and Food Network hosts. At this rate, it can’t be long before these terrifying shows become reality:

    More evidence that NBC is a failing POS.

  2. Eyeris says:

    I’d watch The Smurfs with Sandra Lee. Make it happen, NBC.

  3. Dan says:

    Ten Dollar Chuck with Melissa D’Arabian: watch as 4 hungry people starve to death after eating her puny portions.

  4. Alexis says:

    Dayum! Tyler Florence is looking mighty fat these days! Too many ultimate meatball heroes for sure.

  5. Epic says:

    must….. stop…. staring…… at that blue photo of sandra lee. i dont know whats wrong with me. i simply can’t look away.

  6. Sandra Lee's Liver says:

    “Watch the Food Stick To My Rings, y’all” THAT IS TOO FUNNY! I can’t stop laughing! Brilliant, Jillian!

    By the way, I think she keeps her rings on so that she can lick the food out of her rings later on when she gets hungry again. Ewwwwwwww.

    • KatW says:

      No chef worth his or her salt wears bling on their fingers while cooking. Personally, I think she wears them to remind her fans how much money she’s made pretending to be a chef and hawking everything under the sun, y’all.

    • Diane says:

      I’m thinking she doesn’t take them off because her little sausage fingers have gotten to fat to even slip them off when they’re good and ooooiiiiled up.

    • kross says:

      Just once I wish those rocks would fall down the drain and we could watch Pauler have a heart attack trying to dig those suckers out!

  7. Sandra Lee's Liver says:

    How about bringing back “Will & Grace” with Ina as Grace?

  8. byrdie says:

    N B C

    Never-ending Broadcasting Crap

  9. amandahuff says:

    Just saying…I would totally watch Law and Order BLT.

  10. BOO says:

    Finally…Aunt (hic) Toddy has been asphyxiated!

  11. Jill (not Jillian) says:

    Don’t mess with my Chuck!

    How about “Giada at The Office”? She can make quick and easy Italian dishes for people that have to work for a living.

    • William says:

      Actually, I totally want to see what would happen if Melissa tried to feed Casey some bacon-fueled monstrosity.

  12. Lana says:

    Or “Chef Apprentice,” where the FN stars go work at a restaurant owned by Donald Trump.

    You’re fired!

  13. BOO says:

    I gotta wonder if ol’ Pauler would be frying up caribou or a rude little pig.

  14. Diane says:

    “Law and Order: BLT” LOL!!! LOVE IT!

  15. lone_shark says:

    Paula Deen and her clan starring in “Y’all in the Family”.

  16. lostinplace says:

    Guy Fee-etty, Melissa Dumbass and Aunt (urp) Sandy on…

    “America’s Got No Talent”!!!!

  17. Lollipop says:

    Please, Jillian, post a review of Guy’s game show. I went out to eat last night and there was a TV in my line of sight tuned to NBC, so I had to watch him and his stupid gestures, but at least I didn’t have to listen to him. But the contestants were REALLY excited to be there.

  18. Alex says:

    Here’s some more new shows:

    CSI: Savannah – Each episode revolves around the death of someone who consumed Paula Deen’s food.

    The Biggest Loser, No Really – Food Network just changes the name of Melissa D’Arabian’s show to accurately on reflect her.

    Pinky and the Brain – Alton Brown and Guy Fieri’s new series. Alton has the brain, and Guy has a brain the size of a pinky.

    Who Stole the Cookies from the Cookie Jar? – Not her! Couldn’t be! Wasn’t her! Chef Alex Derriereaplenty steals food and then gorges on it, all the while accusing others of her gluttony.

  19. CherryRose says:

    The Neelys could do a DYNOMITE version of “Good Times”!

  20. TooHotTamales says:

    Aunt Sandy goes back to her pseudo-Wisconsin roots in:

    “Little Soused on the Prairie”

  21. Aubie says:

    This brings back memories of the Tonight Show soap opera skit “As the Stomach Turns”. Maybe Johnny Carson had a premonition about what the FN would be dishing out when cable arrived.

  22. Administratrix says:

    Yikes. I think I’m watching Ina Garten construct a tablescape (she’s piling paintbrushes, twine, and duct tape in the center of her table). I picked a bad day to stay home sick.

    • kross says:

      I’m also watching that show and wondering who in their right mind makes a 5 course meal for construction workers? What does she cook for the mailman, the UPS man, the maid..etc?

    • Diane says:

      FN just needs to give up and run this episode continually. I have seen it LEAST once a week for the longest time.

      I don’t understand why they don’t show the older episodes of Barefoot Contessa and Everyday Italian. They were pretty darned good.

  23. kross says:

    The Andy Griffith Show with Alton as Andy (because he’s the only person on that channel that has a brain in his head , Paula as Aunt Bea, and Guy as Barney.

  24. Peaches says:

    ABC had an ad this morning for a new series with Jamie Oliver; don’t remember the name, but it kind of sounds like a “food” version of “Extreme Home Makeover”…

  25. Cheryl says:

    Who actually works for a living at The Office?

    She would just be another hottie that Michael couldn’t get near but would jump through hoops, acting a fool trying!

    Come to think of it, might not be a bad episode!

    NBC is really desperate
