The Food Network has just announced its fall lineup of shows. Several new programs are on tap, including this jaw-dropper, "What Would Brian Boitano Make," premiering in August 2009:
"Everyone knows Brian Boitano won an Olympic gold medal in figure skating. What they don’t know: Brian is an accomplished cook who loves to entertain! In this new series, Brian takes viewers on a reality cooking adventure as he creates amazing food for a new event in each episode. Funny, knowledgeable and irresistible, Brian brings himself and so much more to What Would Brian Boitano Make?"
Oddly enough, Boitano was the subject of a similarly titled South Park song: "What Would Brian Boitano Do":
It's official, folks, The Food Network has jumped the shark with this one. I never thought I'd long for the days of Jamie Oliver, Nigella Lawson (okay, her show was actually pretty good), or so help me G-d even more Emeril.
Does anyone on the Food Network actually have a COOKING show anymore (and who ISN'T Rachel Ray)?
We can haz cooking show?
What do you mean, "oddly"? Where do you think they got the idea for the title?
that was a great south park! Food Network fans might be interested to know that Fancast.com has tons of Food Network content. Check it out- http://www.fancast.com/full_episodes#videoList
