Phil | With those you don't need the food network! Those are the best shows and I miss the old days with the PBS shows Like Pierre Franey, Julia, Jacque Pepin, Jacques Torres, etc.
Martin Yan I believe has a cousin that used to have a cooking show on PBS also. Great Chef, even funnier that Martin.
As far as the food channel goes, I preferred Iron Chef Japanese, and I do like Diners, Drive ins and Dives, and it has nothing to do with the host. I like the places he goes to. |

There are a lot that I always love to watch, but since I have a radio foodie show...and I can relate a lot to Paula Deen, I do watch hers. Chef at home is another very practical show that I enjoy. Mario and Good Eats are always very educational. I love Ming Tsai too.  |

I like Jamie Oliver, Ellie Krieger, Robin Miller, Alton Brown on FN. There are some shows on PBS that I like, but I don't get a PBS station at my place, so it's catch as catch can. Throwdown with Bobby Flay can often hold my interest. And I like Sarah Moulton also. Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives is OK - I like to see the places Fieri visits, but the show is essentially repetitious and boring
I could pretty much do without the Challenges, especially the cake challenges. Sometimes Iron Chef will hold my interest, especially when Cat Cora's on the show.

Jamie Oliver's "Jamie at Home" is by far his best show ever. I loved the Naked Chef, didn't care much for Oliver's Twist, but Jamie at home is the perfect format for him. I get inspired even watching reruns.
It's not a cooking show but the original Kitchen Nightmares on the BBC is a staple in my tv diet. The F-Word is great too. I really wish Gordon Ramsay would do a COOKING show for once. The man can really cook. |

Top Chef
****'s Kitchen
Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares (BBC haven't seen US version yet)
Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations (of course you have to say No Reservations like they do on the commercials  )
Good Eats
I also watch Ina Garten quite often and Paula Deen. Paula is like a taste of home.......grew up about 2 hours from Savannah. A lot of her cooking is just like what my mom, grandmothers and others cooked when I was a child. I don't really need most of the recipes since they're already part of my heritage. lol
When I can, I catch Michael Chiarelli and Robin Miller. |

Alton Brown
Top Chef

Gotta admit that Paula Dean is pretty good, but her son could cook in my kitchen any time  |
