To say the show Good Eats is off-beat is an understatement for certain. This is even more so given the program is a cooking show. But that's the point. Alton Brown created the fast-paced, prop-laden, pun-happy, culinary spectacle to defeat the hum-drum, pour and stir format of traditional cooking shows.

With Good Eats, Alton Brown acts as culinary instructor and mad scientist for a half an hour cluing viewers into proper cooking procedure via food science. Additionally, Alton discusses equipment selection and food history. Altogether, Good Eats stands as a unique entry into the world of food TV.

Since its premiere on July 7, 1999, Good Eats has captured a devoted following of fans and Alton Brown has taught many a hopeless cook to make a dish outside his/her abilities with a straightforward, nuts and bolts approach. Aided by props, science and an occasional visit from a nutritional anthropologist, Alton Brown teaches viewers more about how to cook than any other culinary program on the airways.

As a result, Good Eats has received much praise. Time magazine named Good Eats one of six shows "worth their salt" in 2005. By the way, Iron Chef America also placed on that list, Alton Brown is doubly worth his salt! Then in 2006, Good Eats and Alton Brown received one of television's most prestigious awards, the George Foster Peabody Award. The Peabody Award recognizes excellence in the broadcasting field. And Good Eats is one of only two cooking programs to receive the distinction. The other cooking show that won? Oh, just The French Chef with the grande dame of TV chefs--Julia Child!
