Two Fat Ladies was sheer quality. Rick Stein's seafood series always enjoyable, and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall on how to be self-sufficient (grow your pig, then kill it and eat it all!) a must-see.
Ultimately, however, all any red-blooded, food-loving male needs is Nigella Lawson. Yum! |

Good Eats is the only cooking show that I've made more than one or two recipes from, and I've loved every one of them. Food 911 can be pretty good sometimes, but the host tries to hard to be likeable/cool/goofy/flirty or something like that for me.

I watch Emeril and Good Eats. I watch a lot of Food Network shows occasionally, but those two are the most informative IMO.
On other networks, I like some of the Julia Childs shows, particularly Julia & Jacques. Anybody remember "The Cookin' Cajun" Justin Wilson? "What I'm gonna did, see, is put a little wine in dere. Oooh that's good, I Gare-ROHN-tee!" |

Food 911 and The Naked Chef. My girlfriend got a bit obsessed with him, buying all the books, calendar, etc. It funny how British people are stereotyped as bad cooks, but Jamie can cook like no one else can. He makes dishes that look (and even taste good when I try to duplicate them) fun and easy to make.

OK, add me to the Emeril Live list. I love to experiment and have used several of his recipes.
If you ever try his Black Forest Cake, expect rich and inebriating. We didn't allow anyone to drive right after eating a piece.

Iron Chef rocks my world. On the other side of the scale of my admiration of chefs, I completely hate/despise/loathe/[insert word for utter dislike] Chef Tony. And he always has this weird look in his eyes like he knows he is a total schmuck, but doesn't care.

The cooking shows I like are the ones where you know the cooking is real. The Iron Chef is a good one. Also, any of the shows about the cooking competitions all over the world. And the show "Best of..". And of course, the Two Fat Ladies, how can anybody not like that one? My favorite chef, however, would have to be Chef Martin Yan. Yan Can Cook was a great show... and his sense of humor is unmatched. |

Rachael Ray of course (30 Minute Meals) Would love to eat her!
Martin Yan was always the funniest and most entertaining show ever...

I loved the Naked Chef (Jamie Oliver)when I had the station, but hes so adorable and really easy, awsome recipes. Loved how he had his own herb 'garden' outside his kitchen window, which was in actuality a window box with herbs..pretty creative. I love the Iron Chef too, though that damn spokes person with his pirate sleeves..cut it off-get rid of the gloves!

I really enjoy watching Justin Wilson's Cajun Cooking. Although he died a few years back, they still show the reruns on PBS from time to time.
I like watching Iron Chef and Good Eats, too, but my favorite Food Network show is Unwrapped, though it's not really a cooking show.

I guess I am with the majority - I like Jamie Oliver, Nigella Lawson - I miss the two fat ladies!
I also watch - I think its called Martin Yan's Chinatown as well as sometimes 'Canadian Living Cooks', Rachel Rae's 30 minute meals and Christina Cushing Live. Emeril tends to annoy me.

I love cooking shows, I like Jamie Olivers but recently there has been talk over how he tastes something with his finger or so and takes another helping without washing his hand, which maybe unsanitary, I don't really care, bu thats the word
