...excitement, taping a one-hour special (also to air on June 25, at 9 p.m. E.T.) about Iron Chef's trip to the U.S., which includes a very weird visit to the home of Nina and Tim Zagat, the restaurant-guide magnates, who served as tasting judges on the Flay show (joined by Donna Hanover and a randomly selected audience member). The pregame show also features Iron Chef's interview with TIME, in which Morimoto, who cooks at Manhattan's Nobu, kept talking about how unfair it would be if the theme ingredient turned out to be guacamole or salsa...
...only a little shocking that a good-size portion of the audience at a recent New York City taping of the show was rooting against Manhattan chef Bobby Flay, a man who makes Bill Gates seem humble. Flay, who has his own series on the Food Network, was chosen to represent the U.S. in a special episode that will air June 25 at 10 p.m. E.T., and that marks the Japanese show's trip to America.

"Do they get the joke, or do they think it's serious?" asked Flay afterward. They hired Australian former talk show host Gordon Elliott as emcee. They get it, Bobby...
...Jack and Chrissy got into that pie fight on Three's Company. The channel's biggest star is New Orleans chef Emeril Lagasse, who drives his studio audience to squeals by overloading dishes with garlic, Tabasco and wine and simultaneously yelling "Bam!" The network's newest show lands Bobby Flay--a guy's guy of a chef--outdoors in the Hamptons (the Hamptons!) with an annoyingly coy female comic (female!) and a weekly guest. The first week's guest was Inside the NFL host Nick Buoniconti, which saved the waning testosterone level...
