(From Kevin Ross email) A web page has been set up for the Travel Channel series Man vs. Food. The program will feature Adam Richman traveling around the country to attempt restaurants’ eating challenges. The first two episodes will be televised on December 3 and the locations will be Amarillo, Texas (Big Texan Steak Ranch) and Memphis (The Big Foot Lodge). A list of all locations is available on the website.
Earlier this year, a producer placed a casting call on eatfeats for a host for the show.
It appears there will be a good deal of competitive eating content on cable TV in 2008 even if the IFOCE contract with Spike TV is not extended. I received an email from Barbara Barna who is looking for a host for a new Travel Channel show which will have competitive eating in every episode. I assume the host will be participating in the contests because she is looking for a someone with a big appetite.
