Bam! Emeril Lagasse loses his TV show on Food Network

[Food Network Fan]

Yeah you are probably one of the reasons she is still around.

I'm thinking they are going to be doing something else with Emeril other than just the Essence of Emeril. He just needs a new updated show.

The audience was annoying to me. They would clap over garlic! No one ever clapped for garlic in my kitchen. And all the oohhh and ahhhing over ingredients was ridiculous. I know the audience is cued to do so, but really, it didn't add anything to the show.

When my sister comes over and sits at the counter to watch me cook, she will sometimes throw in an ooohhh and ahhhh, just for fun. We laugh about it as it does seem silly. She tells me that I'm her Food Network star. That's good enough for me.

That's nice. All I ever get is ... "What's for dinner" and ... "When will it be ready"?

If it weren't for Emeril there wouldn't be a Food Network.

According to the last thing I heard, FTV has enough new Emeril Live shows "in the can" for a year.
They will be showing new episodes through 2008 and drop him in the new year of 2009.
For all of you FANS, you've got another year of Bam!

I like Emeril when he's funny, especially when he's joking and having fun with Doc Jibs, The Audience, and his special guests as well.

If Food Network is going to give him specials, I'd like them to consider Emeril Live Specials.

PF,

That's Doc Gibbbs.

I'm sure going to miss watching this show. He had a good run though!

[Food Network Fan]

He will still be on the daytime show. Maybe they will get him another primetime slot eventually. Something different. I think maybe Emeril live had run it's course.

It's nice to have your own "fan base".

Thanks, Clove!

My audience is small, but very appreciative of the good eats I prepare. Makes it all worthwhile.
