If they were phasing him out, it's kinda funny that they had a mini marathin of the show on Saturday night. I actually feel bad for Robert. I am left to believe, how much of the embellishment was actually his doing and how much was the food networks? Afterall, food network made Emeril the act that he is. Yes, I said act. If you go back and watch the original shows Emeril was in he didn't talk like he does now, and didn't act like it was an act. Something else is going on at Food Network. Emeril is bye bye soon too. His contract was not renewed and Martha Stewart bought a $50 million interest in him. She bought the rights to his tv shows, cookbooks, kithen items. It is my understanding that Food Network, just renewed Irvines contract, and intends to honor it, and will show all shows already taped. Irvine is very talented I am sure they will find something for him to do. I mean they keep Guy around, so I am sure they can find something for Irvine to do. |
