Guy Fieri: A Food Network Monopoly

10 reasons why Food Network needs to cut back Guy Fieri's air time.

Guy Fieri: A Food Network Monopoly

Anyone who is remotely in touch with society knows who Guy Fieri is. Here are some reasons why Food Network needs to cut back his air time.

1. He has a Bachelor of Science in Hotel Management.


He didn't go to culinary school. You can't eat a hotel.

2. He yells all the time.


I don't think I've ever heard Guy Fieri talk at a normal speaking volume.

3. He has a poor sense of taste.

If you've eaten at any restaurant he's been to on "Diners Drive-Ins and Dives," they're not even that good. Some of what he eats looks actually disgusting. (See the chicken pie from season 17 episode 8, pictured above, that looks like a human female breast. While a breast is not disgusting, a food in the shape of a body part is just a little unsettling.)

4. He occupies too much air time

Check out your TV guide right now.

5. He's probably on right now.

Every time I turn on the TV, Guy Fieri is there yelling at me. I feel personally victimized by Guy Fieri.

6. As I am writing this article, Guy Fieri is on for another seven and a half hours.

Nobody should monopolize that much air time.

6. There’s better programming that could be on.

Even other reality TV shows like "Cutthroat Kitchen" and "Chopped" are more entertaining. At least the contestants don't yell at me.

7. He unironically says things like “flavortown."

What does it even mean?

8. The food at his restaurants invalidates his credibility as a TV show host.

See this lovely New York Times review his restaurant received.

9. He’s on Food Network but he doesn’t make his own food.

He is always eating food, but Guy Fieri is not known for making food. Why is he on Food Network?

10. He just can't be taken seriously with his style.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
