LOL.. I saw that thing advertised somewhere about 2 weeks ago. All I could
do was shake my head at the love affair some have with television. But,
hey... Cook along with Emeril??? Bam!!! Oh, that was the door slamming,
never mind.

My thoughts exactly as I watched the commercial for it last night with a
father and son gazing into it in a drug-like stupor.

I agree that it's a silly idea.....i mean wht if it's at the wrong angle for
viewing... do people leave the door open to see better. lol.

The other recent dumb appliance (in my opinion) i''ve noticed is the combo
microwave oven - toaster... i mean i've probably gone through 3 toasters in
the length of time i've had my microwave. Either way, one is bound to break
before the other.

Silly i tells ya.

In our 50's house (sort of like on the Dick Van Dyke Show) the south wall of
the kitchen is open to the hall that opens to the dining room. The guy we
bought the house from built in a spot for a 13 inch tv in the hall so we can
watch it from the kitchen table or I can have it on when I cook. When I'm
doing something tedious to prepare a meal the tv helps, as I can catch the news
or something.

It really surprised me that our friend recently got a tv in her kitchen. In
years I had never seen a tv in her house and thought she didn't watch tv. She
is a longterm-vegetarian-harpist-Boulder-type.

Each to their own, but I like my kitchen tv.

I just saw it at Best Buy this week. Great

those huge, huge televisions on the market
nowadays too. Entire rooms situated around the
television. Sad.

And yet the TV actors look like otherwise intelligent people..

Dunno, that's a bridge too far for me. And all your reasons against such a
lame-ass purchase are valid.

I truely enjoy my convection oven/microwave...this option allowed me to
pitch my toaster oven and get a true toaster. I find that most toaster
ovens don't make decent toast. But it is hard to warm up or bake/roast in a
standard toaster, and a stand alone microwave isn't that useful, as it
doesn't cook things well. I mean that lots of Nuked foods don't taste that
good. Plus since I recently got a convection oven in my new stove, these
ovens are smaller than conventional ovens, at least mine is. And having the
option of the addtional convection oven makes large dinners parties way
more managable. I mean when your hosting thanksgiving or Xmas at your house
you can cook the "bird" in one and any casseroles in the other.

Yeah. Much more practical to have it built into the stove so you can
watch it while following those recipes that want you to stir things
for three minutes every five minutes. ;-)

<shrug> Way too ... ? ... but I suppose I could see some people that might
do that if they have a small kitchen and/or like to cook or watch TV while
in there. But then again, they'd be paying an extra $ 1 - 2k extra for the
TV... for that kind of money I'd put that towards my deposit/down payment to
buy a place with a bigger kitchen!

Priorities vs. money. Interesting concept.

We spent a couple of months looking at houses and I do no remember any
of them that had any quantity of bookcases. One house had a
den/office with bookcase on the upper portion of one wall. It was the
kids room and had toys and games. Completely paneled in walnut too.
