A) Guy Fieri invites the best of the best chefs in a single-elimination, winner-takes-all contest, each going one-on-one with another chef until one is left. Different challenges will affect each round. Two neutral food experts interview the chef during the cooking process, and describe the dish to the judging panel to ensure the panel has no idea who cooked what, preventing them from favoritism.
TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS.
B) 3-4 chefs are called into a parking lot set up as a kitchen. They have to get ingredients by stopping real customers leaving a food store and buy individual ingredients or the entire contents of their cart, sight unseen. They have to cook a successful dish in the provided time- and the time getting ingredients is part of that time! So, waiting for perfect ingredients can eat up all your cooking time (or get expensive in the early rounds when you can buy entire carts sight unseen.)
Supermarket Stakeout
C) The host of the show mentioned in B), now challenges chefs from all over the US to try to out-cook her, 3 at a time.
Alex VS America
D) The show sets up a kitchen in the middle of a suburban street, with houses on both sides. Contestants must pick a house, and get their ingredients from what the residents have on hand (yes, they're paid for all the stuff.)
E) 3 chefs divide the pool of chefs into 3 teams for the season, each of them leading their team. Each episode, the chefs have to cook a dish that fits a description. Each episode, each team picks randomly, and ends up cooking in one of 3 kitchens. The top floor has high-tech, fancy appliances, the middle floor has regular restaurant kitchen appliances, and the bottom floor has appliances like a home cook. The ingredients for use come down and stop for TEN SECONDS for chefs to get ingredients- stopping at the top floor first, then the middle, then the bottom chefs get whatever is left. When it is time to plate, the moving platform stops first at the bottom floor, then the middle, then the top, again for TEN SECONDS. This show involves trying to find a chef of surpassing skill and potential.
Next-Level Chef
F) So you don't like shows about cooking food? How about cooking metal? This show (with at least one overseas version) has 4 weaponsmiths compete in their knife-making skills on-site, then the last 2 competitors go back to their home forges, and have a few days to produce a copy of a famous weapon. Their weapons are examined, and tested with violence, and a winner is chosen from the blades that survive the tests.
One less dramatic test is the apple slice- comparing a line of apples to see which are sliced cleanly and which are split. One more dramatic test is the "bulletproof sword club." The resulting sword is set up, blade forward, and a single bullet is fired- resulting either in a split bullet or a shattered blade as the bladesmith enters the "Oh, my God, they shot my sword with a gun" club instead of the "bulletproof sword club."
Viewers can learn all sorts of things about weapon- making, metal-forging, and related skills, as a panel of judges comments on the techniques as they're being used. One blade was disqualified because it was completely shaped by use of grinders and sanders, and not even a little by the process named in the show's title.
Forged In Fire
G) Guy Fieri drives all over the place, to eat at little, local eateries with specialties, and publicizes them.
Diners Drive Ins and Dives.
H) Before Alex Guarnachelli (however it's spelled) tried it, a different chef brought in 2 chefs, then had them compete against each other for the right to challenge him one-on-one in cooking a dish of their choice.
Beat Bobby Flay
I) 2 chefs, Anne Burrell and a guest chef, attempt to teach a handful of people who are hopeless in the kitchen. The last 2 contestants make a full restaurant meal, with the better meal winning them a pile of cash.
This was the last of NBC's black and white shows to convert to color, on 7 November 1966. It made NBC-TV the first all-color television network.
During the original run of the show, the show reportedly gave away 512 cars, 397 boats, 1,287 domestic and foreign trips and cruises, 12 trips around the world, 857 fur coats and numerous diamonds not to mention all the travel trailers, airplanes, swimming pools, furniture and countless other items (one history on the show reported the total prize giveaway at $10 million).
This show began two years after the original Price is Right.

Hosts included Bob Clayton and Ed McMahon.
A remake, hosted by Alex Trebek, debuted in 1987 and lasted four years.
Prizes were not usually cash, although, for a time, the show featured a "Money Shower," where a contestant stood in a booth under a jet of $5- to $100 bills and could keep whatever cash he could catch and pass through a small window in the booth. (Note: this segment doesn't remotely resemble the main part of the show.)

The game board consisted of 30 "trilons." A trilon is short, three-sided pillar. On one side was a number; on the second side was a prize; and on the third side was part of a picture.
Ok, this was the game-show where clearing the board revealed part of a rebus. Now if I could only remember which one that was without breaking a blood vessel, I'd have something.....
This show is more of an ensemble piece, but I will refer to the actor portraying the main character as the "star."
The star was the first to suggest that his character should be Scottish (originally the character was Québécois) but was turned down. He was later informed late into Season 1 filming that his character was changed to be Scottish from the actor's own hometown of Dundee.
In the opening credits there is a brief image of an ATN broadcast. The on-screen headline says, "Gender fluid illegals may be entering the country twice." The ticker below says, "Dem senator wants to create 'supremer' court" and "Is 'sweetcheeks ' hate speech now?"

Alan Ruck (born in 1956) is closer in age to the actor playing his father (born 1946) than the actress playing his sister (born 1987). He is also older than the actress playing his stepmother (born 1960).
The show is heavily influenced by Shakespeare's 17th century tragedy King Lear.

Most people assume it to be a thinly-veiled analogy of the Murdoch family.

I'm not clear what your point is then. I don't think I'm much older than anyone here. I thought the whole point of this game was to stir memories ,and realize-'oh yeah-I do remember that show !' I'm

This show had an organization:
the Nation Organization of Men Against Amazonian Mastery-
abbreviated "NO MA'AM,"
and fans who signed up for it on a national registry!
Plans to spin it off as its own show fell through.
