Thank you, Serate! You explained exactly my point and much more succinctly than I did. Chitchat - I am sorry that my explanation on March 19 at 3:36 didn't help you to understand my comment. The sports analogy was the only way I could think of to show what I meant. Serate summarized it perfectly -

DARN! As soon as I saw the beef and chocolate, I hollered "Hooray! Mole!" and not just because they rhyme. Ever since I had an amazing pork tenderloin mole in Cuernavaca I have been a big fan!

I still really like the premise of this show and wish more people enjoyed it with me! However, I will continue to be the sound of one hand clapping as long as it is on!

I like this show, but can never remember to look for it. Thankfully, it's one of those that repeats.

Tess likes it too, so there are actually three of us! I just love trying to come up with what I would do with the "basket case" they are each given!

I like it, just it's usually so long after it originally shows that we get around to watching it, so I don't talk much bout it. But I do come in and read what ya'll have to say!

Either I was having deja vue or last night was a rerun! They have only done like a half dozen shows, and we are already getting reruns? Somebody please tell me I am not crazy - well, in this area at least!

I had not seen it before, but I do not know if I have seen them all. Yuck - last night - octopus, duck breast, prunes and animal crackers. Very hard challenges!

Yup - it was a three-peat actually. It's been on at least 3 times!

Thanks, Teach! I knew they had been doing reruns, but I was surprised to find one at the actual show time.

Bumping this up so that the three of us who watch this show will have a handy place to comment! I hope tonight isn't another re-run!

Thanks for bumping. I may have forgot about the show tonight. I don't know why there was a rerun last week but when shows go into early reruns I tend to forget about them and move on.

According to my Comcast schedule, tonight is another repeat - Tofu, blueberries and oysters. I really like this show. Hopefully this is not the end of new episodes.

I missed a couple of episodes, and it sounds like this is one of them. I would for sure have remembered the tofu because - although not a vegetarian - I really enjoy learning to cook with it.

After a careful recount, there appear to be at least six of us who watch this show!

SEVEN! How could they even consider taking this show off? However, this was a rerun as I realized when they started on the first course. That does not bode well for the future of the show -

I just have to chime in about Phyllo dough....it has saved my life on numerous occasions when a dessert has gone south and I have to quickly get something in the table. I didn't watch since it was a rerun, I remembered it right off the bat so I skipped it. I'm not big on write in campaigns but I'm heading off to send a quick note to Food Network asking when this fun show will be back.

I watch this, too, but am behind since I was in England last week and in late meetings and rehearsals the weeks before. I try to catch it on the rerun.

With TEN committed viewers, I feel encouraged about the future of this show. It is a different type of format from Top Chef or Next Food Network Star in that the viewers don't have time to form a connection with the chefs' personalities. But, for reason, it makes it more about the FOOD - like Iron Chef - for me, and I like that. I also like the challenge to thinking what the heck I would do with that basket of stuff!

I watch,too. Just like Tnt, I try to think how I would use the ingredients, some of them I never even heard of! Do you think any of those dishes are tasty? Remember the show when the guy used salt instead of sugar in the dessert. How would you like to taste that?

I am surprised by how many times the chef has NOT tasted the dish before serving it. That is just so far outside of my imagination for a new dish! Granted I don't taste things that I have made many times, but something new? You betcha!

DH watches it religiously with me Tnt. He loves it as much as I do. We discovered it a bit late so some of the reruns are first timers for us.
