Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, Food Network

Where do we even start? Helmed by that endlessly caffeinated, bleached-blonde King of Flavor Town known as Guy Fieri, this usually heart-clogging journey of culinary delight keeps the premise as simple as the ingredients that typically grace this half-hour slice of road-trip heaven. The show unfolds like this: Fieri visits a casual restaurant that does it right, gets the lowdown on a couple of the chef’s signature dishes—and then devours the creation on camera with a relish that makes us wonder how he manages to keep his weight below 400 pounds. (OK, so we digress). When it comes to enjoying this show, though, here’s our recommendation: Bring along a willingness to watch relatively unhealthy and delicious dishes disappear into Fieri’s goatee. And equally important, don’t watch hungry.
