Although Food Network has always hosted competition shows like Iron Chef America and Food Network Challenge, most of them were focused less on the nail-biting tension we’ve come to expect from a show like24 in 24, and more on the reality and documentary aspect of showcasing the talent. Today, however, most of the shows that air on the network feature some sort of seemingly impossible competitive element, with several sharing the same revolving talent across programs.
But, to truly understand everything Food Network has become, there’s no better example than the short-lived and gloriously quirky Cutthroat Kitchen. The wacky competition show was set up like several others, with four chefs competing to be the last one standing. To outlast the other contestants, chefs were given $25,000 at the beginning of each episode, which they could use to bid on sabotages to give to their competitors. The trick was to save as much cash as you could, because the winner could only take home whatever was left in their bank. Notably, only two chefs made it to the end with all $25,000.
While most of the sabatoges were more or less tame, like taking away someone’s utensils or forcing them only to use a microwave, some of the challenges were decidedly brutal. One episode saw a chef have to chisel their ingredients out of a block of ice before cooking, while another required a chef to cook everything while swinging in a hammock. Although the eccentric and unpredictable nature of the show made for wildly entertaining TV, it almost became a pantomime of itself.
Today, Alton Brown has left Food Network entirely after briefly relaunching Good Eats as Good Eats: Reloaded in 2018. According to Brown, in a YouTube livestream, the show was pulled after two seasons because he refused to cut the budget and wouldn’t give up creative control. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like Alton Brown will return to Food Network anytime soon, but you can keep up with him by following his new YouTube series, Alton Brown Cooks Food.
