Chefography on Emeril

[Porthos]

I was watching the Chefography episode on Emeril last night (there wasn't much to watch). They did a segment on other famous chefs that have been guests on his show. I kept watching for Julia Child since I'd seen an episode of Emeril Live with her on it. It never came. I realized about 1/2 through this segment that only other Food Network celebrities were being shown. At the end of the show there was a brief montage and Julia was in that. It saddened me that the one person who most made showing and teaching food preparation a part of our cultur was ignored in favor of trotting out their own stable of faces.

Just had to vent this to people who understand.

It's a credit to Emeril that there exists footage of him with Julia.

That said, The Food Network is all about their own self aggrandizing cliquedom.

Did they show a clip of Emeril appearing on Julia's show LONG before he became a big Food Network star? Heck, I think that appearance may have occurred before Food Network even existed.

You bet me to it, I was going to mention this episode. I'm pretty sure it was pre-Food Network.

Great fun to see Julia sucking crawfish heads with Emeril.

I remember that one, Cooking With Master Chefs. Emeril did shrimp etouffee and a crawfish boil... and not a single "bam".
