this thread is amazing. hate on Guy Fieri, praise for Bourdain, hate for the Neeley's.
the thing I hate most about the Neeley's is that I'm 100% sure that both it, the spin-off, and the two shows with the DJ chick are only there to broaden the hosts past white Italian/wanna-be Italian hosts. It's like their credentials here were "are they black? y/n" instead of if they are entertaining to watch or if they can provide anything remotely close to programing humans want to see.
and personally I'm a bit pissed off that Food Network got off the diet show trend they had a few years back. Crazy diet shows where they showed you how to make normal foods at a lot less fat were awesome.
but seriously, watching Guy Fieri on TV hurts me. He's the type of person who you'd expect would watch the show instead of acting starring in it.
