Do any of y'all still eat this stuff up like I do? It's hard for me to turn it off if one of these shows are on;

Iron Chef (even if most are reruns of new iterations of the show)
Beat Bobby Flay- the dude is just great at what he does
Chopped- trying to figure out what I'd do

I finally went to the place he visited in Rosenberg, Bob's Taco Station. Picked up some good tamales and found out it's Aggie owned.

Cutthroat Kitchen is probably my favorite, and Alton Brown has a lot to do with it. Much more of an interesting side of him compared to his "Good Eats" days, and even his hosting of "Iron Chef"

No kidding. I enjoyed the channel much more when it had shows about cooking and recipes. I could care less about cooking competitions or random restaurants in cities I'll never go to.

Love AB. And love the Bobby Flay/Michael Symon bromance. Those two are gold together.

I've probably seen all of those too. I've also been to a couple of places that I saw on that show, Louie Mueller's BBQ in Taylor and the tiny little hamburger shack located under one of the overpasses (610,59) in SW Houston.

Good Eats is awesome although he does go nutty sometimes making a smoker out of two big ass clay pots for example. I like the explanations.

Like BBF, but his built in advantage of cooking in that set up consistently makes it easier to beat the challengers. It blows to come in and have to use equipment you haven't put your hand on dozens of times and make a meal you think you own.

I liked Tyler Florence when he had a show and actually cooked. Still watch Chopped and Iron Chef, DDD. Can't stand the pioneer woman, something irks me and hate any worst cooks tripe that is trumped up.

Good Eats was great, but Alton was definitely running out of ideas towards the end.

My wife watches these shows incessantly. Fieri is like nails on a chalkboard and The Best Thing I Ever Ate in ___________ is beyond tired, there can only be a few possibilities left. The best moosemeat quiche I ever ate in Paducah, TX.

I've watched nothing but the cooking channel for months now and all of these shows. It's been nice waiting on football season but I really enjoy them. I never watched them before (beating Bobby flat, guys grocery games, chopped)

What's good about about Beat Bobby Flat is there is no sob backstory. They just cook

There's this show where the guy gets scientific behind everything. Like he'll bake cookies, and then explain what the difference between baking soda and baking powder is. Or he's making something and is out of caramel, so he explains what it is, and just makes it and explains how you can make different levels of it based on cooking time.

So I'll just look it up. It's Alton Brown's Good eats. He doesn't just cook, he explains what ingredients do what, and why they do them. I love watching something like that.

I can't get into most of the competition shows. I hate how much they are chopped up and edited and you don't even really know how they make what it is they are making. Every show, every time, they count down from 10 seconds, and the shots they are showing of the chefs are clearly not 10 seconds before it's up. I want to see all the steps.

For any Alton Brown fans he's doing a tour again next year, we saw him a few years back and it was great. As he explains it it's basically everything they won't let him do on tv, there's some cooking and some science and some puppets and a musical number or two. There's a few clips are on YouTube if you search.

He's really personable and you can tell they have him play a bit of a character on the shows he hosts, seems like a guy who'd be great to grab a beer with.

By the way, the new Good Eats has been delayed and won't come out this year.
