Maybe the reason Tregaye was paired with others on a show is to give her a chance of continuing to grow and develop herself without the pressure of carrying an entire show.

No Daminano didn't win, Andy did. He was top 3 though.
I confess I thought Tregaye was saying Flick all season. Then I saw it written and thought what the hell is Fleek? Thank you Google.

lol Jasper. Sad thing, fleek is no longer the hip-cool thing to say... so she already needs to change/update her shtick.
Honestly either of the others would have been better... My personal preference being Domiano... he's a straightforward chef/baker - no gimimick. To me he, he would have more lasting appeal.
But that's just me I guess.

Cass_cat, I agree with you. I would have prefered Genard or Damiano (with a preference for my paisan Damiano). Will Tregay be a good co-host for the show she's going to be on or will she freeze up or will she try to hog air time? Inquiring minds want to know. We shall see.

I wouldn't watch any of the f3 shows. None of them seemed very authentic to me.

I deleted the F3 shows and saved myself several hours I can spend watching something else on my DVR list. Thanks everyone for the input. Not sure why I even watch this show if FN doesn't even follow through and give the winner a show of their own show.
Has anyone seen/heard anything about Tregaye getting a show on FN or even the Cooking Channel?
Last year's winner recently co-hosted the Kid's BBQ Challenge earlier this summer... other than that I haven't seen him on anything.

He, I think his name is Eddie, had a show, but it wasn't a cooking show. It was a traveling show where he found the best bbq around the country. I didn't watch it, but I remember seeing a commercial for it. It must not have been renewed.

At the end of the show, they announced right before the end credits the Tregaye will co-host a show (don't remember the other host)but I can't recall the name of the show. I think it's on the lines of The Kitchen that's on now but I could be wrong.

Of all the winners of FNS, who has become the most famous? Is it Guy or someone else?

Arti isn't doing too badly. How about Jeff, on The Kitchen? I'm sure there are others that have fit nicely into their niche.

Melissa D'Arabian makes frequent appearances too, on FN and other stations as a guest.
Guy is the most famous though. Hands down.

I would say Jeff has been most successful, I know guy has a bunch of shows but I won't watch anything with him on it, didn't even watch the FNS when he was on it, once I saw him in action.

Sounds like the majority of them have done pretty well.
Saw him in action, Dipo???

Yes, LOL...he does live close to me but I find his arrogance off-putting.

Guy certainly seems to have the most visibility and has turned his fame into a franchise that encompasses more than just television - shoot, my favorite place to eat on a Carnival cruise is at his restaurant bar by the pool.

Absolutely won't watch Guy's DD&D show. Do people actually watch him, standing there, while someone cooks? He's just too brash.

One of the women I work with did a road trip to Graceland, and from New Orleans to Tennessee, they ate in only restaurants featured on DD&D - she said the food was amazing! She also said they put on about 10 lbs. in one week.

For me... Guy, for obvious reasons (Triple D, Guys Grocery Games, aka Triple G)... Jeff... his Sandwich show and The Kitchen, and Arti... her show plus you see her as a judge on a LOT of things.
I will watch Triple D he's going somewhere I go to frequently. If it looks good I add it to my list of places to try. And yeah, I watch him watch people cook. Although I agree he is too loud.
