They make it sound like a bigger deal than it is... they still produce Essence of Emeril, they're only stopping the live show. Honestly, his schtick was getting a bit tired, so I'm not surprised. It would be like if Bart Simpson never moved beyond "Cowabunga, dude".

He did make things look simple, but have you ever tried to make one of his dishes?

Won't really miss this one.

isnt that the truth? I really only watch his shows for basic techniques and ingredient lists. his recipes tend to be a bit over the top (to say the least) for your average 'wannabe chef' and anymore, creative ways for him to sneak in his tag line

but I am glad theyre not ditching him altogether. hes not bad, but like Morri said, the schtick has run its course.

But he'll still try to sell me toothpaste right?

I also don't have a kitchen like he does or the equipment he uses...Viking...not in my budget!

Never liked Emeril.

I had a great meal at NoLa - I'd go there again

I think burning things is a La Gasse trait- I invented blackened mac & cheese years ago.

Ditto for slamming things. BAM!!!

The restaurant at Citywalk in Orlando is wonderful- but otherwise I won't miss that show.
