The next food network what?

I love the food network...I mean I REALLY love the food network...it is on my tv pretty much the entire day! I often make dinner from a recipe I see made on one of the shows that day. Bobby Flay is my fav...I love every one of his shows...and I cheer him on whenever he competes on Iron Chef America. I also love Barefoot contessa, Giada, and enjoy the food that Rachel Ray makes (not so much her). The majority of the "original" chefs I think are great.

Now...maybe I am the only one who watches the Next Food Network Star...but let me just say...I may be watching this competition, however, I am pretty sure that no matter who wins...I will not be watching their show. Seriously? These are my choices. They may know fancy food words, but not a single one could do a show. There have been 3 previous seasons of this show and let me just tell you, only 1 of the 3 is even still on the network. The first season 2 guys won as a team and have a show Party Line with The Hearty Boys, of course I have only ever seen one horrible episode, so I am not sure if they are even on. The second season Guy Fieri won...his cooking show is semi-lame, however, his diners, drive-ins and dives is a great show and I enjoy watching (mostly because I love diners and greasy food). Last year's winner was Amy Finley, who I also viewed one of her HORRIBLE shows. So really, I have absolutely no hope for this year's winner.

The other point that I would like to address, while I am talking food...there are a whole lot of new chefs on my network with really crappy shows, and I think, how did they get this job? And, they didn't have to go on TNFNS to get the job....and yet, their shows SUCK too!

A note to all you chefs out there....please stay off of my network unless you can not only cook, but remain uncheesy and annoying while you do it! And also...I don't care if you can cook the fanciest named foods in the world...you still don't have to act better then the rest of us wannabe Bobby Flays!
