no real chef wears shorts in the kitchen- batali's out for that reason alone.

And Giada's head is ginormous (like ET, but less wrinkled), and I hate the f-ing cameraman on that show- "here, let's zoom in on her washing brocolli.  OOOHhh, isn't she talented?"

But yes, her boobs are on display at all times- so is that damn alcoholic semi-half assed lady.  My favorite are her holiday specials-

"look, it's halloween, and I'm dressed as a slutty witch- look at my big witch hat!  I'm festive!  My children hate me and my husband hits me!  I love vodka!" (at this point she just forgets mixing a bowl of punch and pours it straight into her mouth)

Just a quick question, how long did you cook in restaurants?  Mario is the only real cook on that network.  He is talented and knowledgeable.  By the way when he is on the show it is not in a real kitchen.

What? Where is TYLER FLORENCE in this poll?
He can come cook for me anytime

ok, he's in.

also, who's that british guy who mumbles? i only know him as naked chef, altho i've never really understood why he's called that--he's not naked. perhaps the show would be more interesting if he was.

JAMIE OLIVER. Yum. I'd eat him. His wife is a hottie, too.

Also, agreed on the Tyler Florence. Do they even make Food 911 anymore?

Paula Dean, even though I think she's a chef by day and a KKK member by night.

I used to like Rachel Ray but her dishes are a bit ho-hum. I like her other show (40 dollars a day).

True, I've never actually cooked in a line before- but I wasn't commenting on his cooking, I was commenting on the fact that he dresses like a 12 year old boy.  His recipes are phenomenal (although a bit outside of what the average cook can/has time for).  And none of the Food Network Chefs are in their real kitchens- except for Sandra Lee, who doesn't actually cook- she "combines"

They do still make Food 911 but they put it on at weird hours.
Tyler has that silly "how to boil water" show where he shows that blonde how to cook and she stands there and cheers him on. I always wonder how long they can carry on that premise of the novice cook. After a few years, you'd think the girl would learn something.

What's with the Paula KKK comment? That strikes me as stereotyping.

[AH]

OMG how did Ina not make the list?!?!?!?!

[Evolve]

Where are the Iron Chefs?! I declare this poll invalid without proper representation of the true stars of Food Network!

[magnumalv]

  i can never keep their names straight! you list 'em and I'll add 'em.

[AH]

I couldn't pick one anyway...

I lvoe everyone except the crazy drunk semi-homemade woman.

evolve, I <3 your 'tar.
