Isaac Mizrahi is NOT that Big a Fan of Food Network

Well, Bruce Seidel's first official webisode of The FN Dish is up and running, and his first guest is Food Network's "big fan" Isaac Mizrahi.

Isaac, who claims to watch Ace of Cakes religiously, says he wants to "be one of those fat girls who rolls out marzipan all day" and live in a clubhouse where "the fatter you get the more fabulous they like you."

Hmm... how does one love someone more fabulously?

I really want to write something like:
Those "fat girls who roll out marzipan" all day DO NOT sit around wishing they were some coked-out designer living in a clubhouse where the more Target dresses they design the more fabulous they like you.

... but that would be mean.

Isaac also claims to love "every single one of them" on the show... like Mary ELLEN.

Isaac: you're uninvited to the Mary ALICE fan club!

Points for mentioning Sandra Lee, though.

Isaac did get one thing right:
When asked what he hates on the network, Isaac held up the picture of Guy Fieri.

UPDATE: Food Network has pulled the video from the FN Dish page. I took it down, too, just in case it was still live. I realize Isaac was trying to be funny, but it just came across as offensive.

Great first episode, Bruce!

P.S.- Mary Alice emailed me to let me know how hurt she was by the video. I won't go into details, but let's just say Isaac Mizrahi is in no place to be talking shit about one of Food Network's most succesful shows.

Let that be a lesson to you all. Don't fuck with Ace of Cakes! (Sorry to the kiddies who are reading, but in this case it was the only appropriate word.)

Adam Roberts Moves on from FN Dish

It's hard to believe so many months have passed since the February debut of The FN Dish hosted by Adam Roberts, but here we are in August. And just like summer coming to an end, it was officially announced that Adam Roberts is moving on from FN Dish and will be unveiling a new web show for Food Network sometime in the near future.

The new host of FN Dish is Bruce Seidel, Food Network's Senior Vice President of Program Planning and Special Production.

Take a look at Adam's farewell (for now) video.


While I do think it's kind of strange that a show originally intended to be the "ultimate fan experience with exclusive behind-the-scenes access" will now be hosted by an executive who has worked for the network for more than 10 years, I wish him the best.

I also want to congratulate Adam on a job well done. I look forward to seeing what his new show has to offer!
