As I was re-entering our Tivo “season passes” I noticed a show on the Food Network titled “How to Boil Water.” That may ring a bell for longtime Food Network viewers. Years ago I would stay up late to watch Sean Donnellan learn how to cook basic dishes with helpful chef Cathy. I learned about the existence of grill pans. I loved the silly little theme song and Sean’s magical mystery oven (they had not bothered to install an oven in the studio so he had to pretend). Well, someone decided to bring “How to Boil Water” back, but not with Sean. This time it’s a female comedian and a male chef. Reviews on the message boards are mixed. However, Sean himself posted to the board, explaining that after Food Network president Reese Schonfeld left, they eventually stopped communicating with him about plans for another food show. But Sean’s still making a living with TV commercials and voiceover work. He’s got his own website now. And Schonfeld has a weblog!
