Surely Marion will have her own show soon, My Saucy Grandma with callum and Maggie beer.
How about doing a show that's all about training kids to use the deep fat fryers at McDonald's?
That's got legs.
i wish a free to air channel would pick up masterchef UK. i dont get the food channel!
I enjoyed My Restaurant Rules.
My Restaurant Rules was great, I will be glad to see it back. My kitchen rules, on the other hand, was absolute shit.
I don't actually think there's that much of a deluge post-Masterchef as such, thinking back over a few years there has been a huge rise in the amount of cooking shows which gained momentum well before Masterchef, and the new shows are more or less replacing similar series anyway. For example, Conviction Kitchen sounds similar to that show where Tobie Puttock put disadvantaged kids through a hospitality course, Poh's Kitchen is probably very similar to another show the ABC had a while back that had a hott girl of Asian descent as host. Then there was Surprise Chef, Surfing the Menu, and the list probably goes on.
The quality is probably dropping, as it becomes more about ''celebrities'' with less focus on the ''chef'' part (as in actual trained, experienced chefs) which is disappointing. But hey, don't blame me, I never added to any Masterchef ratings.

Saw the Conviction Kitchen promo on 7 tonight - even in 20 seconds it OD'd on ''the journey'' and sundry tears/crises.
How come the teevee shows you guys cook up are unremittingly awesome, while ones in da real world are so shit?
has iron chef .au been cancelled yet?
what about Ramsay's kitchen nightmares hilarious!
Convicts only? Racialist!
From the TV Tonight website, referenced by Crikey today:
''Another MasterChef guest has landed his own series, this time patissier Adriano Zumbo with SBS. Zumbo was most memorable with his macaron tower, followed by his croquembouche and a 5 green Pear Perfections in Junior MasterChef (which was bettered by 12-year-old Jack). His new series, Zumbo, will be a 6×25 series produced by Fredbird Entertainment.''
No mention of Poh's Kitchen here so far. SBS and ABC have quite a few good cooking shows:
Cook & The Chef - ''Magiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeee''
Luke Nguyen's trips abroad
And in answer to your question about having enough decent chefs to fill a full season of Iron Chef Aust - yes, but they've all got their own TV shows and drug habits to support.
