Where did all the cooking shows go?  Now I have time to watch Ina Garten, Giada and that cute Chinese/Jewish percussionist chef, and they've nowhere to be found.  What gives?  I hate food contests...pointless!

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Are they on The Cooking Channel? That is a different tier for me.

Re: Foodnetwork program changes

@bachspal  I like to watch the real cooking shows as well. A whole day of Diners Drive-Ins and Dives or Guy's Grocery Games? I don't think so! I also don't get the Cooking Channel.

@traveler  Some of those are on Sunday morning on the Food Network. Ina seems to be on Saturday. Don’t know if they are new or old.

Re: Foodnetwork program changes

Real cooking shows are still found on PBS, but mainly on weekends.  However, the PBS Create channel has many cooking shows airing every day, all day.  It's not the only type of programming they have, but I'd estimate it's about half.  Check to see if your local PBS station carries PBS Create; it would be on a digital subchannel.

Where have you been????  The Food Network has turned into Chopped, Diners, Drive-In and Dives or contests....a cooking show is RARE these days....you can find a FEW  EARLY Saturday morning or on Sunday...Try the Create Network for real cooking shows...

Re: Foodnetwork program changes

@bachspal: Where have you been? Smiley Tongue  Food Network changed their programming several years ago. Which is why I very seldom watch anymore. You're right, it's a series of food wars, contests and food challenges for the most part.  I watch Trisha Yearwood's show and a fairly new program called Delicious Miss Brown. I enjoy their shows because they actually cook!
