Is the Food Network getting too flashy?
I recently read Jacques Pepin's autobiography, which lead me to hours of watching one of his most recent Public Television series on the internet.
When I first started watching them, I found them a little slow, a little dull maybe. But after a while, I was enthralled by the simplicity of his cuisine and the sincerity of his approach to cooking.
Always an avid food TV junkie, I now find myself a little overwhelmed by the flashiness and rapid-fire pace of their latest programming. It feels a little empty.
What do you think? Do you feel like something is missing from Food Network's current approach to culinary entertainment, or am I just missing the point?
