Rep Power: 10 | I am kinda surprised we haven't had any Canadian FN watchers sign up. Maybe it's not as popular there? I wonder if it's widely available? I know it took a long time in the US for it to be available everywhere. |

Rep Power: 2 | I poked around on the Food Network Canada site and it looks as if they have most of our shows, as well as some Canadian only shows. Some of their shows look interesting, I wish they had them here! On TV - Schedule, Shows, Hosts - Food Network Canada |

Rep Power: 10 | They have Gordan Ramsay on up there. That's interesting, wonder why he wouldn't be on here too since his other show has great ratings? |

Rep Power: 2 | Do you get BBC America, Suzie? I know that they show Kitchen Nightmares as well as a another show called The F Word. BBC America - Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares BBC America - Ramsay's F-Word Index
I wonder if the reason that they don't show certain Canadian shows in the US has to do with the Metric system. I know that I've watched Jamie Oliver before and gotten confused because I can't convert grams off the top of my head. |

Rep Power: 10 | I don't think we get BBC America, but I will have to look. I didn't think about the metric thing, that is a good point. |

Rep Power: 2 | The original Kitchen Nightmares is so much better than the US version which seemed to be edited to add a lot of phony personal drama. Wednesday nights on BBC America, I'm always watching Gordon. |

The F-word and Beyond F-word series were good too, but I couldn't find many of them.
Here's a nice Gordon Fan site, lots of GR news and there are links posted to videos of the shows we can get here in the US that you can download. What Would Ramsay Do? - Hells Kitchen Nightmares - Gordon Ramsay Forum - Index |
