This comes on the heals of the Next Food Network Star, yet another show that brings new star power to the channel, which recently finished up. I don’t recall seeing a show starring the previous winner of that competition, where are they going to fit the new star? I guess Scripps does have the Cooking Channel, or whatever it is called, to shift talent to but it’s very hard to believe that there is a demand for this much cooking on television.

So much of Food Network’s schedule is just throw away at this point. They simply rerun much of their programming everyday, a lot of those staple shows don’t even have new episodes these days to my knowledge. I just don’t know, doesn’t seem like these channels are going in the right direction to me.
