I used Chef Steps and youtube (and egullet) to learn about sous vide, not TV. So Alton basing a show on it may be relatively ground breaking for non-cooking oriented but cooking-curious viewer.
I still have to explain is the simplest terms possible to friends and casual acquaintances that sous vide is not "boiling steak" and the laws of thermodynamics. Maybe he found a way to explain it better.
Also cableless. Am somehow also living (well) without Food network. 😛

mentioned it and did salmon etc. He has 16 seasons under his belt.
even ATK got around to it a season or two ago.
as much as its Sooooo much fun to criticize them
esp for their churn business model
they did a decent job.
and they have a very very wide show-following.
i love MIng. i enjoy the show's format of having two chefs with completely different approaches create from the same ingredients, yet in a spirit of cooperation rather than competition. Also that the recipes are immediately available online if you have interest after a show.
