UPDATE: Guy Fieri Definitely, Positively Hosting “Perfect 10″ on NBC
 |
A few days ago, news broke that Guy Fieri was going to be hosting Perfect 10, a new 6-episode game show on NBC. At the time, the only media outlet reporting on the story was a blog called The Wrap (which ain’t exactly CNN, if you catch my drift). In the days that followed, a few food blogs picked up on the story, but again – no news from the national blogs, entertainment magazines, or Fieri himself. And so, a very large part of me held out hope that this was all just a nasty rumor.
Unfortunately, it’s not.
Fieri’s greasier-than-normal-looking face is now plastered on NBC’s official site, alongside casting information for the show. I like how they had to spell out that it was “family friendly” because most people probably associate Fieri with alcohol, partying, and immaturity. I also think it’s funny that they’re casting after his Roadshows… because after all, nothing says “family friendly” quite like a middle aged man purposefully saturating people with spillage from a 25-gallon margarita machine.

I, too, was hoping it was a hoax… I can’t image what NBC is thinking!
It’s official: Life as we know it has ceased.
NNo doubt NBC brass “think” they see dollar signs attached to the tool that is Guy Fieri.
“I can’t image what NBC is thinking!”
Like what were they thinking when they gave Emeril a sitcom? Anyone remember that one? I believe it ran for a total of four episodes.
The end is nigh.
Mr. Ferry must be following in the foot steps of Rachael Ray. Soon he will have his own seedy talk show. His face will be plastered on billboards all across the country. Hapless snack foods will have their packaging desecrated with his bloated sun-baked visage as part of some diabolical marketing scheme targeting emotionally immature middle-aged men. Only 100 calories per serving, bro! IT’S OFF THE HOOK!
Totally Money!
Food Network Host to Game Show Host. No way will he be doing anything more in the future.
Great news. Ferry can keep repeating his own name (fee-yetti). Has anyone else noticed this ? This snard loves to say his own name over and over again.
He is in love with his new adopted name. What’s that all about ?
Long ago I predicted he’d be parodied on SNL. But game show host never even entered my mind. Wow.
And this, announced on the final weekend of his road show and ON the day his interview in Playboy Magazine hits the stands. Brilliant marketing.
You guys check out this pic of Guy in a gold lamé suit? http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BAZWqwf35Qc/SyqI_jvNkcI/AAAAAAAABZY/sMbtMEqQjco/s400/Playboy.JPG Jillian, that’s one for the Doucheometer if I’ve ever seen one.
So here’s my call on the game show – it’ll run like Who Wants to be a Millionaire and Deal or No Deal. Popular in prime time at first; it’ll enter into American pop culture, run 2 years at most and slowly die, only to be taken over by Ryan Scott (top chef loser) to air in the afternoons ad infinitium.
As we all take one collective deep breath and a sigh.
That gold lame suit is LAME!
According to a recent interview he wants to HOST SNL – cracked black!
Doucheboy meets Howie. Doucheboy sneezes in Howie’s direction. Howie pummels Doucheboy into oblivion. Howie applies instant hand sanitizer and goes about his day.
If only…..
Maybe they’ll give him a makeover…please someone the only people with that hair are washed up WWF puppets and 80′s band members. I don’t even want to get started on the clothing, jewelry, etc.
why God, why?

There’s nothing family friendly about those chin pubes.
Let the nightmare commence.
Um, did anyone else notice that NBC has a casting call at a GMAIL ACCOUNT? what? something seems wrong with that, maybe its a hoax, p10casting@gmail?
good grief!
No hoax. I found the casting call on NBC’s website when this was first posted. At the time, no host was identified, but to me it made the whole story more plausible, and now it is confirmed.
@Ray – it’s only a nightmare if you watch it. There may be entertainment to be derived from reading reviews and ratings.
Just think, we’ll all have something to laugh at when the show doesn’t get renewed.
Oh. He’ll do 150 things to laugh at before episode one, we won’t have to wait.
Actually – sadly – he and his personality are perfectly qualified for such a gig.
And, so, is he now going to stop cooking altogether?
I thought “food” is what made him what he is (whatever that is).
Guy Fieri is a douchebag.
Again, repeated for the Google index.
My toddler refers to Guy Fieri as Hamster-man. It cracks me up!
We as humans, are collectively dumber if NBC is actually picking up Fieri.
What the hell is Fieri’s resturaunt Tex-Wasabi supposed to be? BBQ pork ribs served with a side of maki rolls? Raw yellowfin on coleslaw stuck in a bun? This concept actually has a market?
The only proof of concept is – If you fling enough sh1t on a wall, some of it sticks. “Winner, winner, chicken dinner – That is out of bounds, dude”.
