Friday Ramblings

If you missed last night's premiere of Ace of Cakes, you're not the only one. After my spirited post yesterday about commiting myself to watching it, giving it a chance, etc., I forgot. Jared and I walked out the door to a birthday party downtown and I forgot to set the DVR. I don't feel that bad seeing that TV Food Fan forgot, as well. What is it with these (somewhat) late time slots for shows? Not just on the Food Network but everywhere. Lovespring International on at 11 p.m. EST? Not for this working boy.

I am going to be a good blogger this weekend and get my stuff together. Prepare for the ultimate criticism...

This is currently on the food network's Web site in the TV section. They are really trying to promote the MAN'S NETWORK aspect right now, aren't they? I don't show it, but Alton Brown's mug is right above that, too. I realize what the network is trying to do, but is is really working? Are the images of Billy-Bobby Deen and Jimmy-Jo Deen really gettin' both the ladies and the men hooked on the channel? I may need to do some market research, but I think men want more boobs and less dudes.
