I sometimes watch:
Iron Chef America
Good Eats
Bobby Flay's Throwdown
Off and on. I don't watch any of the cooking shows on a daily/weekly, religious, basis though. I like to just turn them on when I'm killing time, or I'm interested in trying something new.

I like "Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives", "Unwrapped", and "The Secret Life of....different topic each show"; "The Secret Life of Cheese" was a good one.
Like you, Joxie, I don't watch regularly, but just whenever we happen to have the television on, and come across one of these shows.

Others I sometimes stop on are:
30 Minute Meals
Ace of Cakes
Paula's Home Cooking

Final turn....on to the finish line.
(Psst - ignore this post if you actually came in here to talk about cooking shows.)

That's a pity! I was gonna say "The Hairy Bikers" really good cooking show!

My newest favorite is sexy guy's, (sexy in the most dorkiest of ways), Alton Brown's new show, "Feasting on Waves".
I missed the whole "Feasting on Asphalt" thing, so Alton in this type of show is new to me; I think I fell in culinary love with him on "Good Eats".
In "Feasting on Waves" he travels the Carribean, searching out traditional flavors and dishes in restaurants, roadside stands, farmer's markets, and in the homes of local residents. Lots of interesting historical tidbits offered, and served with his weird sense of humor.
The bad thing about watching these "prime time" cooking shows is that they always make me hungry....and eating this late usually gives me weird dreams. Alton as a vampire with an island accent, serving up pitchers of spicy Bloody Marys sounds about right for tonight.

Cool thread and I will be back when I have more time...
I'm a Food Network junkie. And tonight is the "CHOPPED CHAMPIONS" finale. It's one of my favorite shows on TV.
And...I saw a commercial for the next "Iron Chef" competition that is beginning either this Sunday or sometime soon. A lot of my favorite chefs are competing. My very favorite whom I'll be rooting for is Alex Guarnaschelli!

Do you get the new 'Cooking' channel? I have added a link to their website in my original post above.

I haven't seen the Cooking Channel yet, Jox, in my channel-surfing. Not sure if it's here or not. I tend to have "tunnel-channeling" because I'm usually trying to work online while the TV is on. I know when & where shows are and I don't venture too much. Thanks for adding the link.  |

I have DirecTV, and it is right after the Food Network.
Food Network = 231
Cooking Channel = 232
They show a lot of the old shows from the Food Network, but I've also seen shows on there that I haven't seen before too.

Have you seen Bitchin' Kitchen? I've stopped on it a few times and I love to hear Nadia G. talk. She's kind of a female Alton Brown, only hipper.  Oops! Gotta run, I think Phalon is out to kick my a..... 
I also like Extra Virgin. I don't keep up with them though. I only stop on them if I'm surfing channels and nothing else catches my eye.

Thanks for the links, Jox! I haven't been around the computer much to play--working too much. I don't like the Food Truck Race. Tried to watch it a couple of times & just didn't care for it. "Bitchin Kitchen" & "Extra Virgin" I haven't seen.  The recipes look nummie. I made a version of the tomato sandwich at the cafe...god, three years ago :{ The cheese was varied and I used spinach leaves or fresh basil...and then BAM! Five minutes open-faced in the toaster oven!!! Delicious! |

Eat Street is about food trucks and other small food carts and such. It shows what each city has the best of. It makes me wish I lived in those places so I could drop by and get something to eat.
Glad you liked the links.
