Watching him on the Green channel. Without the crap, he's OK. Much mored
like his very early days. I am now at minute 16 and will probably make it
the next 14 minutes. A real cooking show again, with like real ingredients

His show became a parody of itself. True postmodernism.

Just for interest, what's the "Green channel"? Where would it come, for
example, in the listings in TV Guide?

I get it on Dish. It is the Planet Green channel. Channel 194 on Dish.
It's all new, I am not sure if I am getting it as a promo or what. But I
like it so far. They have a website, www.planetgreen.com. It is not a
cooking channel but they have a nice little cooking show lineup.

Not Paul but it used to be the Discovery <something> channel and
apparently is one of the dozen Discovery properties.

In place of BAMs we get commercials, constant interruptions and when
they return to Emeril he's seasoned and spiced something and tossed it
in the pot. But what? Who knows? And the suggested timing seems all
off. I tried a couple of pork tenderloins a la Emeril; they were well-
browned on the outside but near-raw in the center. Had I finished
cooking them I'd have need a chipping hammer to slice. I think his
show is merely a broad sweep of the possiblities of going green. Or
getting near. And a framework for ads.

Hmm, lemme look...

My cable company offers four (4) Discovery channels:
Discovery Kids 100
Discovery Science 101
Discovery Home/Green 102
Discovery Times 103
Discovery Health 104

The Emeril lineup is on Discovery Home/Green 102. I'll have check it
out.

Interspersed with other shows like five times today there's a one hour
episode: "A Man On His Own", 2008, Emeril Lagasse teaches cooking
challenged people how to prepare healthy, tasty meals. Oops, there're
different Emeril shows too: "A Healthy Change", "Packing A Punch".
Oh, there're more food shows, found one called "Green Screen, 2008;
picking from L.A.'s public fruit tres, and an organic catering
service. Oh, another; Host Bill Nye examines breakfast products.

Well, whaddaya know, BAM!

I dunno, most channels have lots of commercials, the discovery
channels don't seem to have more/less than others. I shut down most
of the Olympics on NBC because the commercials were on longer than the
actual events... and who wants to watch volley ball like 90 pct of the
time (I hate volley ball, I don't consider it an Olympic event), this
was by far the very worst Olympics broadcasting ever.

Right now on 102 Green there's "Fast Fuel". 2008, Tommy and Ludicris
collect cow dung in order to turn it into methane gas. The commercial
on right now is a toilet bowl cleaner, how appropo.

I erred, I actually have five Discovery channels; 100-105.

My cable company package (I subscribe to everything except the X-
Rated, fooled ya) is giving me 750 channels, including some fifty
HDTV, which are actually duplications, and some 50 music channels,
I've no idea what's on most of them.

I did most of my (limited) Olympics watching on CBC, which is
available here in
southeast Michigan. A very interesting slant on the coverage, and
quite
tolerable commercials. Since I don't give a rip about who wins, one
slant is as good as another. I never did get to see any sabre/saber,
though.

I like it a lot. I've seen a lot of different ingredients used, a lot of
recipe and prep ideas. He seems very personable to the guest and to the
people in the store. They kind of guy you'd not mind having a beer with.

Funny you mention BAM. He was doing one recipe and the guest asked about
spice and he picked up some, reach over the pot and said "you can kick it
up" and waved his hand, retracted it and "oh, never mind". Kind of funny at
the time, making fun of himself.

Yup, falls in with Disocvery and TLC and many under that umbrella. They
were doing a Green Channel preview (on the TLC channel)here in Canada for a
while. I didn't see much of interest.

Did he look unhealthy to you? He didn't seem to be any heavier but he
looked awfully swollen. And kind of tired.

I'm watching Emeril Green right now; Green Block Party... pretty good
chow, and nice zoftig wimmens. Warty-Melone n' White Peach Salsa with
marinated grilled Flank Steak n' Shicken... lotsa grillin' happening.
BAM!

I don't know about unhealthy, but his head looks a few sizes too big. In
the photos used in the start of the show he looks OK.

Yep he did. He looked like he either gained 30 lbs. since the last season on
FN or he's on steroids for something. Reminded me of a friend's daughter who
seemed to just inflate when on a steroid-based medication for her chrones
disease.
