Synopsis

Host Guy Fieri takes a cross-country road trip to visit some of America's classic "greasy spoon" restaurants — diners, drive-ins and dives — that have been doing it right for decades.

Supelice Dreadfully Boring
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
david-236-18448 The absolute nadir of food shows. Guy Fieri builds every place up to be the epicenter of a city's culinary universe, but they're all just dumpy places in strip malls (DD&D featured a chicken shack in my neck of the woods once; Fieri called it "beloved" and a hotspot; the online reviews for the place were almost universally negative). No matter what their specialty is, they all seem to include five sticks of butter and at least one trip to the deep fat fryer in their recipe.Worst of all are the tasting sessions. Fieri slops the food all over his sweaty face, his fat fingers, the cooking surface, etc., and then grunts with his mouth full: "Man, that is spectacular! Right on, brother!" It's like he recorded it six years ago and just plays the tape back at the conclusion of each segment.The show makes all the food look disgusting. And with the repeated fryings, it probably is. I can't imagine being able to hold down my lunch with Fieri sitting across from me, a 50-year-old man dressed like an eight year old, yucking it up with all those bad puns and diving face first into food like a rabid hog. Absolutely grotesque.
devdead Firstly, Guy Fieri looks like he walked into an AXE commercial and decided to live inside of it. Seeing him alongside normal human beings is jarring. It's kind of like seeing a clown at a funeral. Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives does a fine job of displaying the restaurants but the insufferable host and editing make it a chore to have on in the background, let alone actually watch. The best thing to come out of the show is watching Guy get flat-out ignored when he makes a joke. It's rare for a host to consistently fall so flat on his face but Fieri's unintentional talent for schadenfreude manages to keep the show above an unwatchable level.Watching the show also reveals how shockingly little Guy knows about cooking. Keep in mind that, at the time of writing, he has 5 restaurants currently open. It's testament to Fieri's skill (or lack thereof) that every single time he opens his mouth to guess an ingredient used in a dish or even suggest one, he gets shut down. As it turns out, you should not add melted cheese to literally everything no matter how often Fieri suggests it. And whatever you do, don't try to deep fry everything. Nothing Fieri advocates so fiercely could possibly be any good.The New York Times called this show a "carefully engineered reality show" which is a claim I'd agree with as it does feel incredibly fake and forced but generally a reality show does a better job at not making a fool out of its host. I suppose there isn't any amount of manipulative editing that could make Fieri not seem like a bumbling buffoon.
jaemiewaters it is a great TV show i never saw anything like this before it is one of the best shows in the world it is a masterpiece this is the show that you could watch over and over again it is one cool show i like it a lot and so will you it is a hoot it is the bomb i never saw anything like this before it is one cool show make this the number 1 best food show on TV it is amazing i think his is the best show on TV b far it is one of the best shows in the world you will like it a lot it is a show that you will say wow that was a great show lets watch that again Guy is amazing he is a great Host he is cool i never saw a show this good before this show hits a home run i never saw a show this good before this show should be voted the best food show on TV because it is just a really good i like this more than chopped man v food man v food nation it is just a really good show that you and your whole family will enjoy even your kids will like it because it is just a really great show
Andresen If you've ever written an angry letter to a corporation demanding that they remove all trans-fat from their products, this show might not be your cup of tea.Normal humans, on the other hand, will think that it is mac-daddy money and totally off the hook (which is to say, rather enjoyable).Host Guy Fieri drives his red 1967 Camero convertible across the country on a never-ending road trip to Flavortown. He stops at locally owned restaurants which generally feature big portions, big flavor, big attitude, and big crowds. Many of the restaurants on this show have been local favorites for decades, some going back 90 years or more.The restaurants featured on "Triple D" usually have some unusual feature. This includes a restaurant inside of a gas station, a classically trained chef serving meals at a bowling alley, a roving wagon which brings bar-be-que to your neighborhood, a restaurant that is made out of old school buses, a joint that serves a combination of Mexican-Jamaican-Chinese food, and hundreds more.As a cooking show, I find DDD to be better than most of the shows on Food Network. With most pot and pan shows, the host is trying to impress you with their cleverness. On DDD, you get to watch actual people cook actual food for actual crowds of people spending actual money. You see plenty of innovative techniques and flavor combinations for making and serving great food when time is of the essence.Many of these techniques and flavor combinations can be applied to lean protein, fruits, vegetables, beans, legumes and whole grains. In other words, you can watch this show and then make a healthy meal for your family that they'll actually eat. Watch this show with a pen and a notepad. You'll be glad you did.Diners Drive-Ins And Dives showcases America's diversity, innovation and entrepreneurial spirit. 500 years from now, historians will study this show to understand American culture in the early 21st century, and to laugh at Guy Fieri's hairstyle.
