Well, I am somewhat sad to say that Aaron McCargo Jr. won the Next Food Network Star this season.

All 3 contestants did 4 minute shows and I loved both Adam and Lisa’s. Aaron is the person I will probably watch the least. 2nd year in a row that I haven’t agreed with them. I didn’t really care for the Gourmet Next Door last year and I feel a bit vindicated that her show didn’t take off. Not that I am happy that the show did poorly just a bit vindicated in my judgment. It is obvious to me that the channel is looking for a new audience share. I hope it works out for Aaron and Food Network.

Separately, I tivo’ed Food Detectives and I have high hopes!
