Guy is pretty cool and I like the diners show. Think its in its 3rd season now.
He has another show i don't really care for.

The diners & dives show is pretty good. Apparently more people watch it than I thought.
One of the local places that got covered says he is actually much busier now and he didn't think that was possible.

I like this show. It's a bit mind numbing, but isn't that what tv is for?

I've eaten at a few of the places he's hit, and he's right on the money about them. I'm going to keep watching.

The food always looks great in those joints.
FWIW, I think Guy was the first winner of the reality show "Be the Next Food Network Star" and may be the only one left.

Think its in its 3rd season now......and I said it was relatively new....more evidence of El Stupidito....in defense, I'll say I used to only watch Iron Chef Kitchen shows until about six months ago....well, I watched Barefoot Contessa a bunch also.....

Watch whatever Alton Brown is on. He has his own show, and it's pretty good. He's a bit of a goof, but his shows are usually quite informative and entertaining.

I always watch DDD. Guy is perfect for that show. He is kind of annoying in an energetic sort of way but he is a great host for that show. Good Eats with Alton Brown and Eating on Asphalt is also an enjoyable watch.
