do you watch Barefoot Contessa cooking show?

LOVE Ina Garten. I think she is such a classy lady. Paula's recipes remind me of things those of us that are part of the "ahem" 55+ crowd grew up with - but I can't stand watching here. Bobby Flay and Guy Fieri always make me smile! Can you imagine what a fun party it would be to have Bobby Flay man the grill, Ina bring soup, salad and bread, Guy pouring drinks and making some great side dishes and Paula sending over a delicious dessert. Who wants to join us? :))

I love the cooking channel and the guys that make tools to create their food. I just love to watch what they will come up with next! I love Rachael Ray I learned to cook from her. That just do it attitude I do not watch her talk show not my thing but I do love her!

I vote for "Ina". She does have class, I may be naive but I like the chemistry between her and her husband. I like to watch the drive around East Hamtpton and the neat stores, etc where she shops. My daughter's goal when she retires is to live a year in Paris, so I bought her Ina's Barefoot in Paris cookbook.
I made her bruschetta recipe for Christmas.

Others I watch on occasion are Nigella Lawson (her books have fun language just like she speaks, ie, soundly beating a pork chop), Mike Chiarello (he has a nice voice, relaxed demeanor, down to earth), and Julia Child reruns crack me up. Some others I quit watching when every time they bend over a mixing bowl something is about to fall in it.... if you know what I mean. Just not interested in a cooking show being sexed up.

I don't watch those 1/2 hour shows.

Contessa's got nothing on Paula Deen for butter useage! lol.
I'll watch Iron Chef America...espessily if Morimoto's on. I love his old school meets new school style of Japanese cooking. I'd love to go to one of his restaraunts someday! Used to watch the original Japanese Iron Chef, but my friends moved and when we got cable we found we don't get FLN without having to pay extra.
I really like Good Eats. Alton's recipes are awesome! Plus, I kind of like that nerdy, informational aspect of it, too. If you ever want to make Thanksgiving turkey in under three hours and have the most moist turkey ever, look him up for that.
Anything Guy Fieri's on. He's just really cool. He inspired me to make my own recipe of japapeno poppers while watching one of his shows...Guy's Big Bite, I think.
