Food Network Specials

I think the viewers are being a little ripped off. I watched the recent special for Chocolate Lovers and they filmed the host (Tyler Florence) introducing the chefs/cooks making their favorite chocolate desserts but they were clips from old shows that I'd seen before. The one with Paula was in the yellow house where she filmed her first few seasons. Boo hiss! I'm sure the FN is making $$ hand-over-fist. You'd think they could go the extra mile and film something new. When these personalities film their new season shows, couldn't they just throw in a few more for these 'specials'? I feel so used.

The Christmas special they ran every other day in December was the same way only they used clips from current shows that were also running every other day.

I know they use old shows. I'll be watching and all of sudden, Paula doesn't look so good. Then I recall the clip is from one of the 'old' shows she did.

It's like watching reruns. I get so bored with all the repeat, repeat and repeated shows!

I have seen them do that with several specials. I wonder what they think makes them special if we have seen them already?
