I have seen the previews for DB's show, but what is NB's show about?

I actually saw this thanks to the power of the internets. it's about a talented chef(Bradley Cooper) who let his ego, alcohol and drugs get him arrested and sent to prison for four years. the show starts out with him out of prison and working at a really cheesy italian(?) restaurant and hating every minute of it because he's a real chef.

he goes for an interview(and gets the job!) at a restaurant that is making a big comeback and it introduces the characters effectively by having his character going to each one of them to become his new kitchen staff. NB plays a pastry chef.

it looks like it could be nice fluff. definitely not anything i see myself getting fandom crazy for, but it's cute. though...it is on FUX. so yeah.

also? tomato hater here. then again...i hate most fruits/vegetables.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh! I need to see that. I've watched Bones, and thought it was really dumb.

Chick with past crime-induced trauma, can't relate to people, solves stuff for the FBI.

Just not done well.

It's sort of based on Anthony Bourdain's life, right?

Kristen is wise.

That show sounds kinda cute, plus Bradley Cooper.

I know not, but the character's name is Jack Bourdain. so that makes sense.

Thanks for the info, tiggy. It sounds interesting. Now I have another stupid question: Who's Bradley Cooper?

Will Tippen from Alias (the roomie) and the mother's BF from Jack & Bobby.

I would love to see a show with someone dying horribly from eating a tomatoe.

I suddenly envisioned superstitious 16th century Europeans popping up and yelling "See? We were RIGHT!"

hmm, although I dislike Bourdain A LOT, so we shall see. FX is pretty much off my radar for casual viewing.
