After just two episodes with terrible ratings, 'Bakers vs Fakers' was taken off the air, replaced by new episodes of 'Cutthroat Kitchen' starting tomorrow night.

Wow..i guess even switching hosts(first it was the Cake Boss guy,then Lorraine Pascale) couldnt save..good seeing Cutthroat Kitchen back though

Food Network's schedule will include new series such as: Dessert Games, the Guy Fieri-hosted docu-series Guy's Big Project, I Hart Food, a travelogue hosted by new-to-the-network Hannah Hart, and all-new cooking series Bobby & Damaris (wt).  Also launching are all-new episodes of Texas Cake House plus new seasons of fan-favorites - Chopped Grill Masters, Halloween Baking Championship, Halloween Wars, Holiday Baking Championship and Christmas Cookie Challenge. Rounding out the Q3/Q4 slate are delicious new pilots ranging from food-first travel adventures, innovative competitions, and deep dives into everything from bacon to baking and everything in between.  Cooking Channel dishes out new series Monster Food as well as Late Nite Eats, and U.K imports Choccywoccydoodah and Heston's Fantastical Food, as well as returning favorites - Big Bad BBQ Brawl, Carnival Eats, Cheap Eats, Food: Fact or Fiction? and Man Fire Food, plus a variety of pilots to satisfy every taste.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ANOTHER show for Duff Goldman, this time a 'GGG' about desserts. 'Texas Cake House' got the go ahead to become a series, even with disappointing pilot ratings and, apparently Damaris Phillips is getting another show with one of the two Bobby's, either Flay or Deen; also not clear is what kind of cooking series this would be: an instructional cooking show like 'Grill It!', a travelogue, a competition cooking show a la 'Masterchef' or a cooking talk show, given the success of 'The Kitchen' and the fact that Bobby Flay did a pilot for a daytime talk show with Giada for syndication that didn't sell, so maybe FN wants to do another talk show, this time with Flay and Damaris. 

 

Bobby and Giada did a talk show pilot..? Maybe why it didnt sell is cause it was copying Live With Kelly & Ryan..

Monster Food-so essentially this will be CC's version of Ginormous Food,i assume the Carnival Eats guy will be the host,and Ali Khan hosts the Late-Nite Eats show

Guy's Big Project.-let me guess,it's about him planning to open a new restaurant someplace..

At least a talk show would be something different for FN (will they be copying The Chew?)

Everything else is same as it ever was. Another, ANOTHER "food forward travel show". Cakes, Kids, Wars...

Having watched a bunch of DDD and various other US and Canadian FN material on FN UK last summer (late night, time zone issues causing sleeplessness, otherwise I'm not spending time watching TV in London!), it's only fitting we get some of their shows.

Nothing personal toward you, but I am going to have to stop reading your posts! These ratings are seriously pissing me off! Ina, please go to another network!

FN put Ina in a bad timeslot because their target audience doesn't like an informative cooking show.  Their sister station, Cooking Channel has gone the same way.  I haven't seen any new episodes of  My Grandmother's Raviolis & Extra Virgin.

You know -- I rarely watch any of the food prep shows (save Ina) these days.   I actually miss SemiHo with Aunt Sandy.   That's something I never thought I would say!   At least her using a historic quilt as a tablecloth while downing a few dozen Bloody Ritas (or whatever her custom cocktail was) entertained me and gave me ideas that I could morph into recipes.

Seeing that Ina dropped to 11th prompts me to share Jacques Pepin's views regarding reality cooking shows. Well, really shows like Hells Kitchen but I am taking the liberty to expand his comments to cooking competitions. If Jacques has a problem with that, he can curse me out in French while we share a fine Bordeaux. Thanks to @cooksdelight who posted this article on the Top Chef forum.

 So there's another new show about some guy going around the country eating ridiculously large food.    It's on Travel Channel not Food Network, but it's all Scripps.  I'm sick to death of the promo for Ginormous Food literally every commercial break on FN and now this one has been added into the rotation.  They have another red-headed, schluby guy only this looks less kempt and even lamer than the hipster wannabe on Ginormous Food.   I can't believe there's enough people who want to watch a show like this to support having one, much less two.

It's amazing how dominant Food Network Star is in FN's ratings. The difference between it and the second place show is greater than that of the second and fourteenth show.

That blog is so right on. I always thought Pepin and other real "chefs" must be disgusted with the shows that the Food Network is producing. They should change the name of their network to Contests about Food Network. No common sense, no culinary background, no cleanliness, needed.

There is no separate forum for it, so I will comment here on Dessert Games:

Not good!  From the get go, more time is required to make a dessert. This format is not practical. The Baking Championships are a better showcase for these skills.

Programming Notes:

-'Ginormous Food' and 'Incredible Edible America', which were advertised and promoted to go on the air this past Friday and Monday night respectively, were taken off abruptly from the schedule altogether and, as of now, aren't returning to the network. Ratings for 'Ginormous' were way down from its first season and 'Edible' had terrible ratings, surpassed even by 'Tia Mowry at Home'. FN has had troubles trying to find a successful companion to 'DDD' and a Monday 10P hit show and the new one called 'I Hart Food' doesn't look promising looking at the promos. 

-Also leaving the schedule completely is 'Chopped Junior'. It's unclear if it was cancelled or its coming back even in reruns, although this 'Chopped' shows have plenty of episodes taped months in advance regarding ratings, as 'Chopped Junior's' were also down from its first season. Proof about it is that this Sunday, the first challenge on 'Food Network Star' is based on 'Ginormous Food'. As 'FNS' was taped in January and the new season of 'Ginormous' didn't start until April, they didn't know the show would go down as it was.

 Well now at least I won't have to see that Ginormous Food commercial that makes me dive for the remote 5 times an hour.  Of course, I now have to mute the incessant I Hart Food (yeah,no.  ain't happpenin FN) and the cake couple show (again, no).

I keep getting the stupid commercials for Katie Lee's Bouncing Around in a Bikini Beach Bites and before I managed to hit mute (dog was on the remote; bad doggy, no treat), I saw that it was a new season. How in the Hell did that get a new season? I came here to see if @ny1221's posts on the ratings listed it, they don't, and am now back to my original conspiracy theory that she has video of a "very high up in the company of FN or Scripps" individual naked, in a room with a prostitute using drugs. A Marion Barry situation.

There just cannot be any reasonable explanation for her continual appearance on the network. Her voice is awful, she never has any idea what she is talking about and Bobby Flay is the only who appears to be able to tolerate her, and that comes across as strained a lot of the time, too.

Two Guy Fieedddi shows and a show Jeff Mauro co-hosts are amongst the top 4 rated shows. Whether you love them or hate them, at least they are proof FNS was able to, at one time find legit stars. Pretty sad how far the meaning of the show has tumbled. Does the winner even get a web series anymore?

Ina dropped again??

), I saw that it was a new season. How in the Hell did that get a new season? I came here to see if @ny1221's posts on the ratings listed it, they don't, and am now back to my original conspiracy theory that she has video of a "very high up in the company of FN or Scripps" individual naked, in a room with a prostitute using drugs. A Marion Barry situation.

It's not on the list because those are ratings for the Food Network only and Beach Bites airs on their sister channel the Cooking Channel. I have only caught an episode or two but thought it was decent.

Discovery Communications (owner of TLC, Discovery, OWN and ID among many other channels) announced today that they bought Scripps Interactive, which owns Food Network, Cooking Channel, HGTV, DIY, Travel Channel and Great American Country for $14.6 billion. The merger is expected to close in early 2018.

Yikes! The owner of TLC - trashy show channel, is now in charge of all Scripps programming? Not feeling hopeful for the future of my favorite channels. Are we going to have Kate Gosselin on House Hunters?

We could be seeing her as a judge on Chopped & Guy's Grocery Games..the horror..

Or,speaking of HGTV shows ..what if Food Network revives Restaurant Impossible and brings back not only Robert Irvine,but also have Fixer Upper's Chip & Joanna as the "building experts".. lol

There was a bit of speculation on Foodnetworkgossip this morning that Discovery might want to jettison Cooking Channel.  Disco seems to like cost cutting. And "synergies" 

Crap, there go the reruns of Good Eats. :(

Yes, that was good, I keep hearing Guy Fieri is a jerk to the DD&D people but I've never seen anything definitive.

I'm surprised that someone like Guy with so little talent has so many shows on FN.
