Good Eats

“Good Eats” is a cooking show on Food Network and Cooking Channel, created and hosted by Alton Brown. The show, which aired in North America, is often compared to science educators like Mr. Wizard and Bill Nye. Brown delves into the science and techniques of cooking, the history of various foods, and the benefits of different cooking tools. The program typically highlights familiar recipes that are easy to prepare at home and includes segments on selecting the right kitchen appliances and maximizing the use of affordable, versatile tools. Each episode has a unique theme, usually centered around a specific ingredient or cooking method, but sometimes covering broader topics like Thanksgiving. In the tenth anniversary episode, Brown mentioned that the show was inspired by a blend of Julia Child, Mr. Wizard, and Monty Python. On May 11, 2011, Brown announced that the series would conclude, wrapping up with episode 249.
