The Top 100 Cooking Shows of All-Time

Posted on 26 May 2010 by admin

From Source: thecooksden.com

From the moment I sat down to watch my first episode of “The French Chef,” I was hooked on cooking shows.

In fact, based on the number of hours I’ve spent studying Julia, Gordon and Alton, I ought to be a superchef myself. Alas, that’s not the case. But if there’s one thing I can do better than Chef Tell, it’s tell you about the best shows in the genre.

And with a dizzying array of shows aired on entire networks devoted to cooking, you’re going to need a roadmap.

So, with that in mind, here is our list of the “Top 100 Cooking Shows of All Time.” Read it to re-visit some of your old favorites, or study it carefully to discover some new gems.

Either way, enjoy the list, let us know what you think and, please, no wagering.

Listropolis’ Take:

Very solid list of cooking shows. Each one has a video snippet and has been ranked on entertainment and education value along with the tastiness of what they prepare. If cooking is your thing, you’ll want to make sure you check this out.

Do you want to set the mood for Valentine’s Day by watching the new romantic comedy, Elevator Girl, on Saturday night? Or maybe you’d rather spend Sunday learning about the opposite sex on a new TLC special called Sextistics or watching dinosaur booty calls on Discovery’s new special, Tyrannosaurus Sex. On Monday, do you just want to sit on the couch, relax and watch a marathon of NCIS, Pawn Stars, or The Secret Life of the American Teenager? If so, then this list is for you.

You can watch 101 TV Series & Movie Marathons and Specials during the long weekend for Valentine’s Day and President’s Day.

Listropolis’ Take:

We LOVE TVTango, and this list is one of the many reasons why. Take a minute to look through this list, and you’re bound to find something you’d like to see. Us? We’re watching the Golden Girls marathon! (not really)

Posted on 15 September 2008 by admin

From Cracked:

A TV spin-off is almost bad by definition: it’s whatever is left when an executive draws a big circle around the characters people actually care about and says, “let’s write a pilot without these people.”

But the truly terrible TV spin-offs are awful on a whole different level. They take these characters and wedge them into some pointless or ill-fitting premise that makes us care about them even less. Here are five spin-offs that truly make us wonder what the fuck they were thinking.
