Author Topic: Food TV Show: "Unwrapped" Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 10-22-2004 06:52 PM                  I am sooo into this show! I love to see how all the "machines" and factories make our "favorite" mass-produced foods/candies/snacks, etc. WTF thinks up and designs these really cool machines and production lines that make all this stuff? They are awesome! >>> Phil  |  IP: Logged Mark Lensenmayer Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1605 From: Upper Arlington, OH Registered: Sep 1999 posted 10-22-2004 08:30 PM                     I agree, Phil, that show is a lot of fun. Some excellent engineering in those plants. Reminds me of some of those old industrial films that showed how things were made. Usually 16mm and on free loan from (was it?) Modern Talking Pictures? I used to show them all the time in school.  |  IP: Logged Greg Routenburg Expert Film Handler Posts: 178 From: Toronto, ON, Canada Registered: May 2003 posted 10-22-2004 09:18 PM                     FoodTV just rules in General, even our watered down Canadian version. The only thing that bugs me about Unwrapped is the host. Could anyone be more phoney? Personally my favorite show is Good Eats. AB is a riot.  |  IP: Logged David Stambaugh Film God Posts: 4021 From: Eugene, Oregon Registered: Jan 2002 posted 10-22-2004 11:50 PM                        YES!!!! If I'm channel surfing and I stumble onto one of those "How This Stuff Is Made" shows, I HAVE to stop and watch it. Everything else gets put on hold. It's fascinating to see how something like, oh, M&Ms are manufactured.  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 10-23-2004 01:26 AM                    Rachael Ray.

Those are some rock hard abs. Anyways. I've always loved those manufacturing shows. There used to be one of TV Ontario uphere. They'd show all kinds of manufacturing processes. It was a short to kill time to fill in for commercials. Really neat stuff.  |  IP: Logged
