I've been enjoying watching The Food Network's Next Food Network Star. I missed the finale last night because I was out and I forgot to record it. If anyone saw the Finale last night could you tell me who won? Thanks.

Never mind I just checked the Food Network's site and saw that the Gourmet Cowboy Lenny McNabb one. I love his personality. I was going for either him or the Italian Luca.

Lenny was my favorite from the get-go, but when they brought Luca back, I started rooting for him. Was sure that one of those two would win, though. {#emotions_dlg.thumbup1}

Would have preferred Luca over Lenny..but it seems the Food network often hires some of the runner-ups. Time will tell!

Not sure if any / many of the posters here know of Lenny's controversial/disturbing videos, comments, etc that are now the basis of some cause for pause since his being selected as the Next Food Network Star. IMHO, he is a total loser. Any man that can use the "c" word in a video about a brisket should not be in the spotlight. Yes, I did see it before it was removed.

I won't be watching ANY show he's on.

It's interesting on the FNS show how he was portrayed as being a polite, "aw shucks, ma'am" squeaky clean type of individual. He really put on a facade in front of the cameras, didn't he?

Out of the three, why shouldn't they have picked Lenny? The girl was just so boring, really no personality. The Food Network already has Giada for Italian so why not Lenny? Giada's smiles couldn't have gotten any bigger whenever Luca came up and it was getting a bit embarrassing. Besides, with all of the cooking competition shows that they now always show on there, there really isn't much time to show just a regular cooking show much but I am looking forward to his show. Still love Mellissa's $10 and under show, love Jeff Mauro, and, of course, Guy Fieri.
