Game Over for Mario at the Food Network

Celebrity chef Mario Batali has been cut from the Food Network roster:

"He said that if his shows weren't going to be renewed, then he wasn't going to do 'Iron Chef,' " said a network insider. "And then they essentially said 'ciao.' "

Don't worry. You'll still be able to watch Batali TV when he teams up with actress Gwyneth Paltrow on their upcoming public television cooking show.

Update: Mario still shooting episodes
