Some of the stuff he does on his shows- especially when it comes to Italian- just blasphemous. Pre-cooking pasta? Panceta in linguine with clams? Wtf.

I ate at his restaurant in Orlando at Universal and it was terrible. My guess, just a licensing deal. Absolutely gross. I don't even think it's even around anymore.

I ate at his original flagship restaurant in New Orleans many years back- now that was some awesome food and a great experience.

So what’s the WORST TV we’ve really listed so far?

Ancient Aliens
Curse of Oak Island
“Hacky” cooking shows
Travel Shows hosted by douches
Dog the Bounty Hunter
Outdated Sketch Comedy

I’ll throw another show onto the pile:

FAMILY GUY

I was exposed to Family Guy during its Adult Swim revival on Cartoon Network while I was staying up too late in high school. I stuck with it until giving up around Season 5 or 6 (2006/7?). Too vulgar for kids yet too much of an insult for an adult audience, who was Family Guy’s intended audience? Man-children, I concluded, before steering my younger siblings to better, more age-appropriate animations like Kim Possible and Clone Wars.

Since then Family Guy is one of those shows that’s always on TV, amassing a staying power by virtue of its sheer volume of syndication across Cable, similar to that of The Simpsons and South Park (who despite their equivalent vulgarity are adept social satirists, unlike FG). Going into Season 18 or 19, Family Guy makes such a too-easy target for Cancel Culture that I half-wonder if that’s the reason why Cancel Culture hasn’t bothered to challenge FG. Characters wear “black face,” continually mock numerous disabilities, and maybe most unwatchable of all, its depictions of Asians are so demeaning I’m surprised they’re allowed to air. None of it is funny; the animation sucks anyway.


Anything else? Name names.

And for about the first four. It was as good as any show that has ever been written for maybe five or six seasons, which is about all any good comedy has ever had in it. And yet has somehow been on for 30 years

Bayless was great, but not on FN. PBS mostly.

Queen Ina Garten rocks. Alton Brown is the King. Giada does cook, but it's hard to tell.
Truth,him and J.Kenji Lopez-Alt from the Food Lab at Serious Eats - though he doesn't have a TV Show(as far as I know).You could throw ATK in there also,between the 3 of them they've made my culinary offerings palatable

To the original topic, I really couldn't say what the worst shows on TV are, because if I don't like something I won't watch more than 5 minutes of it.

I will say that I despise The Bachelor and all its derivatives.  My i s c & a aggie wife likes them for some reason, even though she knows it's all fake and contrived.  I guess it's sort of like my friends that watched wrestling back in the day.  

But I can't do it, I hate that stuff.

So I guess I'll say that the worst show on TV, is The Bachelor.

Dancing with the stars, American Idol, the Kardashians, Biggest Loser, Oprah, whatever that political daytime show with Whoopi Goldberg is called, Survivor and the Bachelorette. 

Worst ones I could think of off the top of my head.
