A search revealed only a couple mentions over the past few years. I find it incomprehensible:
1)that this is a current show in production (in this century), and
2)that she hasn't been discussed and analyzed in customary DL form.

My favorite was her [bold]New York New York[/bold] episode, where she kept insisting her recipes were like the fare served up in all "those Neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew Yooooooooooooooooooork deleees." Of course, none of it bared any resemblance to anything you'd ever get in a deli, New York or elsewhere.
It was like New York being imagined by someone in Ottawa. In a time before air travel.
I won't even mention the nothing-at-all-to-do-with-jazz "singing" she thinks you want to hear her intone. At least she found a fan for her hepness in r3's poor old mom.

God awful, not just her food but her personality. What a waste of PBS. Did you ever see her do a recipe with that vegan "cheese"? That shit wouldn't melt if you put it on the sun. She must have something on someone to have gotten that show. There was another vegan cook on PBS, Christina, her stuff wasn't that terrible and at least she had a personality of sorts. I don't think Christina makes any new shows.
Seriously, if you're vegan I think just eat the basics and don't try to really turn it into something. Besides, all that soy based tofu they eat will probably give them cancer, especially the women.

Neither of them is on create during my usual watching time, 8-9 pm, when I catch Martha and ATK. I wish Ina would move to create. I also love Jacques and Julia.
I might have watched Lidia at one time, but ever since that story about the woman she held prisoner in her basement, I can't bring myself to listen to her voice, however much I might like her food.

I watch the JV whenever I can - she's hilariously awful. Her little singing inserts during the cutaways are so bad, but she thinks she's just a hip, cool songbird. I hate when she has a so-called nutrition expert on, to give hard facts about how wonderful apples/cucumbers/quinoa, etc are. They are so serious and sanctimonious. Also, JV is rather hefty for someone who lives a vegan lifestyle - I don't get that.
JV is always throwing tamari in most of her recipes. Not familiar with it, but I wonder how it can be used in so many diverse dishes. She frequently mentions her husband - I would love to see him. I picture a guy that looks like Ed Asner during the MTM years.

I liked her better when she was Stevie Nicks.
Christina claims to have cured her acute myeloid leukemia through a macrobiotic diet alone and her husband claims to have reversed his severe osteoporosis with one. I haven't seen the book but macrobiotic logic on bones goes something like, eat lots of daikon because it's long, white, and hard, like we want our bones to be. Stay away from Swiss cheese.
The crazy little things like that, that she would casually drop in, were my favorite thing about her show: Never eat stir-fry at night if you want to get to sleep....you'll pick up the energy of being thrown around in a wok and toss and turn all night. Eating carrots sliced into circles will warm you like the sun. Once your diet reaches macrobiotic perfection, you'll no longer need to drink water.

Christina is a hard core right-wing bitch, the epitome of I've got money and fuck you. Her husband produced her show and they were equally awful. I knew someone who went to one of her seminars and walked out because they used it as a forum for their political views.
Toward the end of her series, she always looked miserable and grumpy. I think she was through with it but for some reason (maybe she was bound contractually) she was being pushed to continue. I used to watch Christina sometimes, but I never saw her cook anything I want to eat.

Lidia is basically a one trick pony, everything, pasta, vegetables, meat is piled high with red sauce and cheese. It's all a glorified pizza slice. Julia and Jacques Pepin are wonderful, especially for learning technique. I used to like Ming when he did the show by himself. I hate the guest star thing. ATK is weird without Chris. I love A Chef's Life but I think the "star" Vivian is getting too big for her britches. She seems like she's the sun and everyone else has to revolve around her. I'll bet as soon as the show goes off the air she and her husband divorce. He's clearly miserable.
It's like the show that used to be on PBS, Caprial & John's, as soon as the show was over so was the marriage.
I do love Martha, not so much as a person, but as a cook. Everything of hers I ever tried came out great. Some recipes are too extensive and call for a too much prep and bowls and pots. She has people to to the prep and clean up afterwards, I don't. So those I don't make.

They took JV away from my PBS station this autumn. PBS added PBS Kids channel but we didn't get Create in this market. Looks like JV is on Create now, so I can't watch her anymore. She was silly but she got oldsters - a group that is difficult to convert - interested in healthier and more vegetarian eating.
Tamari is a type of wheat-free soy sauce, R16. It adds a meat-like richness (now called umami) to foods, and like other soy sauce, it is about 3/8 salt by volume (1 tbsp soy sauce is about 1 1/8 tsp salt).

My local public station has not been playing her recently, but last year when my bf and I accidentally stumbled upon her horrid show we actually were laughing so hard that my stomach was hurting. This show is absolutely comedy. I make my friends watch her shows on DVR. Her food looks awful and everything that she does is so fucking lazy. Laura Theodore's use of that terrible Dried Mixed Italian Seasoning in everything and the way that she just boils those poorly diced vegetables in water (she very rarely uses much of any olive oil at all) - she is terrible. Her horrid food is not the reason to watch this show - the SOLE reason is when she breaks into song about cranberry muffins or eggplant stack-ups. The seriousness in which she serrenades her viewers with ridiculous song describing her cullinary creations - it has to be seen (and heard) to be appreciated. Her closing theme song will both break your windows and give you a seizure. Worth a look!

I can't believe this show is (was?) being produced NOW. It really is completely awful food that seems like a 1970s attempt at a vegetarian cooking show...as though the past 40 years of all-vegetable cuisine hasn't been developed and become part of the culture.
She still talks about a vegetarian cuisine in terms of "no one will know" or "you won't miss the meat." Like she's fooling her hubby into eating a brown rice casserole. It's all so anachronistic...crazy! Not to mention her warbling!

This past Saturday, Jazzy made hens in a nest/eggs in a nest/whatever, but she gave this long-winded tale about why she calls it "Rocky Mountain Toast." She "spread" copious amounts of "vegan butter" (!!!) on a couple of slices of some obscure whole-grain bread (some shit like spelt or something you've tasted once and vowed that was enough), and then filled the holes with...
...TOFU freakin' CRUMBLES and tamari. Pan-fried 'til gray, then served with a self-satisfied "No one would ever know it wasn't scrambled eggs!"
I am not a vegetarian or vegan, but I know enough about food to realize that vegetarian cuisine hasn't been at the "fool you" level for over 35 years...LOL! She's so bonkers!
r64, I agree about Pati. I enjoy her cooking , and have a bit of a guy crush on her. She's really pretty. LOL
Pati's also good to watch if you have some basics down about Mexican cuisine. Seeing some of her cooking has helped me to expand my knowledge, which is great for aspiring/student cooks.

Tofu scrambles usually start with a lot of sautéed aromatics and vegetables along with herbs, spices, nutritional yeast and sometimes a pinch of kala namak, a.k.a. Indian black salt. But since she's so jazzy I can see her just mashing a block of a tofu, throwing in some tamari and cheese and calling it a day. She makes me equal parts sad and happy.

Where are people getting that Christina Pirello is conservative? I was going through her Twitter page, and she's got all kinds of anti-GOP stuff posted.
I hated that musician she used to have on her show, the guitarist. He was like a James Taylor-manqué, and I would turn the sound down every time he came on to play a song on his kitchen stool while she "grooved" around the kitchen putting batter into pans or whatever.

Laura's theme today was Brunch favorites. She made baked French Toast and it looked like gack. She blended firm tofu, a banana, olive oil, non-diary milk, vanilla and cinnamon until the mixture was like thick buttermilk, and she poured it onto the bread slices which were laid out on a baking sheet. Gloppy thick goo on top of bread and baked. No bueno.
Other recipes were Quiche Cups (tofu, tamari, vegan Cheddar, chopped broccoli) baked in a muffin tin and fresh fruit Ambrosia. Her "singing" consisted of reciting the ingredients to the quick and ambrosia.

I've come to appreciate Jazzy's musically concise, to-the-point approach to her recipes. She's Jazzy!

These blogging fraus are so thirsty for recognition. They see how that horrible Pioneer Woman hit the jackpot and now every woman who can create a website and has a camera is using that to gain some fame. How many cooking blogs do we need, anyway?
I read through R103's link and this chick must think her every thought is just the funniest, hippest words to be put on a computer. She uses words like "peeps" and "oh my gaahhhhh" and too many caps. Ugh. If Jazzy had a blog, I can only imagine it would make you want to claw your eyes out.

Jazzy was "trying to impress friends from New York" when she came up with this: chunks of raw zucchini and bell peppers served kebab-style.
"It's like I'm dong jewelry art-making here!" exclaims Jazzy's guest.

My station stopped carrying Jazzy for a few sad, weepy, unsyncopated months. I was heartbroken...
But she's back!
Today they aired Jazzy's Bollywood episode (with the "musical" guest) mentioned upthread. Nothing too egregiously bonkers, foodwise. But she had Miss Bollywood cooking ON A HOTPLATE on some countertop...inside some hotel room/business suite in South Carolina!
Oh that Jazzy!

You temporarily lost Jazzy? I condole you.
The new season started airing here a few weeks ago and you're in for a treat as she lines out cookie sheets with parchment, garnishes out plates, blends out tofu in the Vitamix, whisks out dry ingredients, and greases out baking dishes.
Apart from her jazzy new hair, the high point for me was a segment in which she taught us how to make her special eco-friendly party favors: break a bar of dark chocolate into squares, put two squares in the center of a piece of parchment paper, gather all the edges together and tie with ribbon. It was amazing! The woman is a genius.

The new Cook's Country people are kind of annoying. That Rodent face Souza dude, the Asian twink and that big black bulldagger with the blue hair. I guess that's diversity.
speaking if diverse, do they still air Alemelu's Indian flavors? she rocks, she has this relaxing voice. I made this Lemon Rice and it's delicious!

Good call on the Linda Lavin similarity, r121! Lulz!
By the way, on the Bollywood show, she made some perfectly passable roasted cauliflower (which is delicious and simple), then she dressed it up with turmeric (again, fine, okay...), but then ruins it by throwing on a dollop of VEGAN MARGARINE, instead of olive oil like any sane person would do.
Typical fukkin' passive-aggressive Jazzy...

I posted at R115 a year ago and now I see she's brought back the single chocolate chip for season 7. And is she really still doing that silken-tofu-plus-something-with-a-flavor mousse that my mother used to make 30+ years ago? I know Jazzy has made some variation of it is every season (see R116), but it's 2019; it [italic]has[/italic] to be avocado or cashew cream.
Doesn't it?

R25, why do you think that Caprial and John Pence's marriage ended? I've never heard that and can't find any news about it now. They had to file bankruptcy and their restaurant in Portland closed, but I don't see any mention of divorce.
