TV has a lot of cooking shows and I've pretty much seen them all. I avoid any shows that are "reality" based like Chopped. Hell's Kitchen is another one that I can't stand to watch because of all the senseless cussing and beeping. A lot of the cooking shows have chef's(or so called) who have become celebrities and now just have too much face time on the tube. Fresh new faces are what I look for. In my opinion PBS is the leader in good educational programs that instruct on how to cook without all the mindless fodder. My favorites are Cook Country's American Test Kitchen and Simply Ming. Even though Martha Stewart is a big celebrity she still produces a very good show and is a fine teacher.
