Is there ever going to be another cooking show that can possibly compare to Good Eats
Cooking shows all suck
>>20982256I liked Bobby Flay's early cooking shows>routinely winged it>forgot the names of things>got steps wrongIt was hilarious, like they got a warehouse worker on camera to present it
>>20982256Good Eats is nothing like other cooking shows. It’s corny sketch comedy mixed with cooking on a weird set.
>>20982261>Good Eats is nothing like other cooking shows.It sucks about as much as other cooking shows
>>20982266Agree to disagree
Christopher Kimball is the superior cooking sperglord
>>20982252If it's not produced by a reputable TV company then it's most likely not going to be decent. Weird gaylords will think it is because they know no better. It's all well and good having the drive to produce something yourself and make it popular, but ultimately it's not a qualified show. There's no palpable skills behind its production
>>20982256behead those who insult alton brown
He looks like a homosexual that probably stuffed that avocado up his ass right after that photo was taken.
>>20982311>not taking the butter pear pill
>>20982252Milk street and Americas test kitchen, maybe. Both of those gp into the science and alternative ways and why they do what they're doing similar to Alton. Alton was a better and more charismatic host, but alas
>>20982252try watching good eats now as an adult its fucking shit trash
Do YT shows count? I really like that fermentation focused show that Brad from Bon Appetit did back before BA promoted that Indian lady with the failed restaurant and she fucked everything up.
>>20982252I prefer watching an addict who got cucked and killed himself (Guy told me he did most of his cooking with a spoon and a bic lighter) sit on small plastic chairs while he waxes poetic about the unique quality of these random southeast asian noodles in a dingy restaurant full of natives staring at him
>>20982252I don't want competitions with arbitrary time clocks. I don't want some asshole yelling at people constantly. I don't want a camera showing only bowls and gay finger nails. I just want someone competent and charismatic enough in front of a camera and in a studio kitchen to make a dish. Is that so hard to do anymore. Also, isn't don't want it to be aired at 6am.
>>20983768You missed out that the addict was a spoiled rotten rich boy who solved every single problem he encountered by flinging his family connections and/or money at it, including trying to bribe his whore of a girlfriends accuser.
>>20983711Nah, still good. The way the skits tie into introducing concepts/cookware/different methods is great, and his episodes about cooking without a kitchen are very well thought out.
>>20982252>Tasting History>Aaron and Claire>that one ajerbaijani dude who cooks in the woods...all mog the shit out of everything that came out after Iron Chef switched from subs to dubs
>>20982252>Actually explained why and how cooking techniques worked and the chemistry/physics behind them instead of just saying "you just do this"That alone made Good Eats better than anything that came before or after and if you disagree, you are wrong.I like Babish and Tasting History just fine but Good Eats is what I'd show someone who actually wanted to learn how to cook without just following a recipe.
