In doing so we’ll be challenging ourselves to erase any knowledge of future episodes so we can deliver an unbiased opinion. At the end of each show we’ll tell you if this is a show we would green light or cancel. Tune in to find out which mega shows wouldn’t make the cut, what forgettable mistakes we give a pass, and who started exactly where they should be.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-25T18:18:49.691888+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-s1e1-podcast-3715607"},"episode":{"title":"S1E1: Emeril","slug":"s1e1-emeril","published_at":"2026-06-11T07:35:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-s1e1-podcast-3715607/s1e1-emeril","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-s1e1-podcast-3715607","url":"https://TheS1E1pod.podbean.com/e/s1e1-emeril/","audio_url":"https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/w9fp6ju7reiuu4e6/S1E1Emeril.mp3","summary":"\"Emeril\" is an NBC sitcom that premiered in 2001 and starred celebrity chef Emeril Lagasse as a fictionalized version of himself. Set behind the scenes of a successful television cooking show, the series was a workplace and family comedy rolled into one, attempting to cash in on Emeril's massive Food Network appeal at the time. Despite boasting a talented cast and the popularity of Emeril Lagasse at the height of his fame, the series was short-lived and has largely faded from television history. Does this forgotten sitcom deserve a hearty \"Bam!\" or should it stay off the menu? Listen as the S1E1 boys deep dive Emeril's pilot episode, \"fat\".
