The challenge has returned, but seemingly tooled for budget tastes.
in the last few months, several new (but old) faces have sprung up (martha stewart, allison hannigan, paige davis and maureen mccormick, etc) on the food network as hosts. new faces are often good, and some folks deal with it better than others. in the case of ian zierling on the revamped network challenge, eh, it's ok. i have to admit i never watched 90210 or the shark storm movies, so i wasn't aware of the "special" pronunciation of his 1st name.
the episode last night was based on "back to the future" movies, which treated us to ian in marty mcfly garb and making funny little movie jokes. it seems like it's sort of close to "worst cooks" in terms of the level of humor they're trying to inject. i don't remember this being a part of the show, and really, it's ok. it isn't scheduled viewing, but it is still fun.
