'Next Food Network Star' Runner-Up Adam Gertler Gets His Own Show

Good for Adam.....his personality on tv seems to be pretty true to his real persona. I went to the same college - don't know him well, but hung out with him enough times to get a sense since a friend of mine dated him. He was a drama major at Syracuse, thats why he's so good in front of the camera. He's always been more of a performer than a cook. Haven't seen the show yet - but if i pass by while flipping channels i'd definitely stop. I agree with previous opinions of aaron and lisa - i could totally see lisa do a martha stewart - esque show...and I can't see aaron being very interesting, though i have not seen his show. I'm also a big alton brown fan - so i guess it makes sense i'd be a fan of someone approachable and fun like Adam. Goodluck with the show adam!

I loved Adam. I have watched his new show several times. His humor is fun and he is great on camera but I would definitely like to see him do a cooking show. He is like Guy in that his real appeal is as a personality. I think he will be another star like Guy and will be one to watch- I am sure that Will Work for Food is just the beginning.

I have to agree about Aaron. He just isn't that interesting on his show- I have seen it several times and am just not that impressed or interested in watching it again. He still feels stiff and forced on camera to me and doesn't really have anything compelling to teach as far as food goes. He is another FNS dud like all the others execpt Guy. I think they have had a hard time picking the right winner every season but the second. JAG should have won Season 3 but he took himself out. I would still love to see him get a show on FN. I would like to see Lisa get a real cooking show too. She actually knows food and would bring a different element that is currently in short supply on FN. Aidia, Sonny, Aaron-- all duds

Seriously, this format has been done ten times over, and this version is neither informative nor entertaining. It's boring. Period.

Drama major? No wonder he is so comfortable in front of the camera. So far, the show doesn't suck.
