Too bad that it sounds like the second attempt failed, too. With actual chefs/food experts doing the reporting and it being produced by the Food Network, it's still probably better than the first attempt with UPN and Shatner. Also, Alton Brown is one of us (i.e. nerds) and he did a parody on his own show (Iron Chef meets Junkyard Wars :)

Nobody seems to like Bobby Flay. Before they aired the rematch between him and Morimoto, someone asked Ron Siegel (the San Francisco chef who beat Sakai) who he thought would win, and he sided with Morimoto while barely hiding his contempt for Flay.
