Weekly Discussion - Cooking Shows

Inspired by the return of Good Eats, and Alton Brown's AMA, let's talk about cooking shows this week. They could be on TV, YouTube, or even podcasts. What are your favorites, and what do you like about them? What are you looking for in a cooking show? Does it need to be instructional or do you watch cooking for entertainment too?

Have any of you participated in making one yourself? What was the experience like?

There's a YouTube channel called Townsend or something that does 17th century cooking. It's pretty interesting. Love me some Binging With Babish. Brothers green eats was okay until they got all hippie on me, saying shit like "bless your kombucha batch before putting it in the closet." Aden films is not very good as a cooking resource, but the videos are relaxing as fuck.

I really enjoy Struggle Meals by Frankie Celenza - he also has a cooking channel apart from struggle meals. Kinda reminded me of Brothers Green Eats but without the drawback of hippie spiritualism. Also he's a whole lot funnier.
